Li Yu said, "Then let's speed up."
The vehicles accelerated, roaring forward.
They approached another roundabout.
Less than two kilometers away from the destination.
Li Tie slammed on the brakes!
Everyone in the vehicle lurched forward.
"Dapao, how the hell are you driving?" Dapao touched his forehead, which had turned red from hitting the window.
"There's a woman... sitting in the middle of the road," Li Tie exclaimed with widened eyes, pointing ahead.
Upon hearing this, Li Yu was about to roll down the window to take a look, but as soon as he touched the button, a chill crept up from the floorboard.
His sixth sense warned him – danger!
In his mind, a scene from a movie he had once watched flashed by:
A woman, just one, sitting in the middle of a crossroads.
Then a group of people got out of their car to inquire, all of them leaving the vehicle to rescue the woman.
In the end, they discovered it was an ambush, resulting in grave casualties for the team.
If not for the male protagonist in the movie, they would have likely been wiped out.
"This is bloody like a movie trap, they've pulled out this kind of stunt? Do they think we've never watched a movie?" laughed Dapao.
He and Li Yu had watched this movie together.
Li Yu observed the woman in front with disheveled hair, dressed in a white dress. Hearing the noise of their approaching vehicles, she lifted her head.
Her face was scarred, but clearly human, not a zombie!
However, her expression was dull and saliva dribbled from the corner of her mouth, giving her a deranged appearance.
Wearing a crumpled white dress stained with blood, the dried blood attracted flies buzzing around her.
Everyone exchanged glances.
Li Tie straightforwardly asked, "Big brother, what do we do now?"
Li Yu peered through the bulletproof glass, scanning the surrounding buildings.
Suddenly, the woman in front shouted, "Hehehe, I'll eat you. I'll eat you."
Her mutilated face was twisted, appearing extremely grotesque.
A pang of pity flashed through Li Yu's heart – it was evident she had lost her mind.
Then he said to Li Tie, "Open the shooting hatch on the top."
When He Bing modified the vehicle, he made significant changes to the Unimog and in Li Yu's opinion, the coolest modification was on the top.
A raisable shooting platform was installed, surrounded by metal plates with only a gun hole and viewfinder left.
Moreover, this platform could rotate 360 degrees, allowing them to attack from inside without opening the windows.
Li Tie didn't know what Li Yu was planning.
But he still did as he was told.
The lifting platform activated.
Li Yu got on top, then turned to Dapao and said, "Notify the other vehicles to retreat and leave this place."
Dapao didn't understand why, but remembering the movie they had watched, he did as told, informing the other vehicles to retreat from the area.
Li Yu climbed onto the platform, standing.
He then aimed the gun at the woman in white clothes.
He muttered to himself, "Be liberated from this cruel world soon. Farewell!"
He fired several shots.
The bullets pierced the woman's body.
She fell to the ground, blood spilling from her mouth.
Her previously ferocious expression gradually soothed.
A look of relief crossed her face as she gazed in Li Yu's direction.
She mouthed two words with effort.
Li Yu recognized the shape of her lips, the words: Thank you.
Before being captured as bait,
she had endured the vilest humiliations.
Although she had gone mad, there was a moment of lucidity.
At last, she was free.
She breathed her last.
"Quick, leave!" Li Yu shouted after witnessing the scene.
He had been uncertain, but now he knew.
Li Tie was bewildered, having just seen Li Yu shoot the woman without a second thought.
And now they had to leave immediately, with no seeming danger.
But when he was unsure, he usually just followed Li Yu's instructions.
That was the smart thing to do.
So, he immediately made a U-turn, reversing the vehicle.
The vehicles behind had already reversed and were ready to leave.
On a corner of a building directly opposite them,
and behind four or five vehicles, a group of people was hiding.
Now, they watched the cars in front of them, utterly baffled.
They had expected these vehicles, one being a Unimog, to be easy pickings, waiting for the moment they disembarked.
They hadn't anticipated that this group would actually kill the bait they had left beside!
They had previously managed several successful traps using this method.
Luring victims several times and plundering considerable resources.
But this time it failed.
"Boss, what do we... what do we do now?" one of the men asked.
The man tipping his hat, his face seething with anger as he watched Li Yu and the others reversing, remembered the shots from moments ago.
His anger dissipated, and he said, "Don't act rashly for now. Follow them, find out where they're headed, then we'll make plans."
The group, indignant, began to clamor:
"Big brother, why don't we just block them in and chase them down for a fight?"
"Yeah, boss, these guys are too arrogant. We take them out and that Unimog must be packed with supplies."
