Doomsday group favorite: I will win with my three brothers

Chapter 274 An Unexpected Encounter with Him

Zhao Lexi rode on General Heiyue's back, holding Chengfeng in her arms, and returned the way they came.

As time passed, they drew ever closer to the capital.

However, there was very little food left in the space. After eating a few meals of fruit, Zhao Lexi felt uncomfortable because her mouth was so bland. After thinking it over, she asked General Black Moon to change direction and run towards the direction where there was energy fluctuation.

It is located to the west of the capital.

As she drew closer, she stored the two beasts in her mind, slowed down, and approached the aroma of roasted meat alone.

At this moment, the aroma of roasted meat is emanating from this location.

Pan Jinming always prided himself on his keen insight and ability to judge people, never imagining that he would one day suffer a mishap, or even lose his life.

At this moment, he was completely sunken into the ground, with only his head remaining above the surface, like a lamb to the slaughter. Who could tell that this disheveled man was yesterday the second-in-command of the capital base, a figure second only to the emperor?

His confidants lay scattered within a ten-meter radius of his body, all lifeless.

Li Jun didn't rush to kill him. Instead, like a cat toying with a mouse, he rubbed Pan Jinming's cheek with the sole of his shoe and said disdainfully, "The day you took a fancy to my niece and humiliated my brother, did you feel as good as I do now, Deputy Base Commander Pan?"

"Bullshit, she climbed into my bed herself!" Pan Jinming roared.

Li Jun sneered, "Ha, are you kidding me? You pervert. You've got plenty of shady characters out there."

“I didn’t force anyone,” Pan Jinming retorted angrily.

"Of course you don't need to force them. As long as you show even the slightest hint, those parents will clean them up and send them to your bed! Those who are unwilling will either go abroad and never come back, or their families will be ruined by your subordinates. Has any of them lived a good life?"

“With your high position and great power, you naturally aren’t afraid of insiders spreading these things. Suppressing public opinion is a piece of cake. In fact, some people will even actively send themselves to you, seeking wealth and glory, like me.” Li Jun got excited and leaned close to Pan Jinming’s head, the splash of dirt flying into Pan’s mouth, which was wide open in surprise.

"Isn't my niece beautiful? She's a nine out of ten even without makeup. And look at me, with small eyes, a flat nose, short stature, and a bit chubby. How could someone like me, as her brother, possibly have such a beautiful daughter? Don't you ever think about it? I spent a fortune to find her. Just the minor adjustments and repairs cost me almost a million. Add to that the training in her physique, lifestyle, and emotional intelligence, and it's easily over five million!"

"When she was little, I moved her from the orphanage to my brother's household registration as his illegitimate daughter, raised her for five or six years, and then found the right opportunity to bring her in front of you. It would be natural for you to take a liking to her. Then I would put on a show in front of you, pretending to be willing to die to protect my niece, so that you would remember me, remember my excellent qualities, and even think that I am a very capable person. At this point, I would have my niece throw herself into your arms, and I would obey your every word for her sake, so that you would completely trust me and treat me as your confidant. Step by step, wouldn't that be how you rise to power?"

"You ungrateful wretch!" Pan Jinming cursed angrily.

"I was just fighting for my own future, I didn't hurt anyone. But what about you? How many families and children have you ruined! Even if you go to hell, you'll be more than ten levels lower than me. What right do you have to talk to me like that!" Li Jun kicked him hard, leaving his face a bloody mess and his neck almost broken.

The faces of Li Jun's confidants around him all showed disdain: they considered themselves no good people, but they would never harm a minor child without a reason.

Li Jun changed the subject: "But then again, there's no deep-seated hatred between us."

Upon hearing this, Pan Jinming felt a glimmer of hope.

“But who told you to block my way?” Li Jun chuckled. Pan Jinming understood, and his heart sank to the bottom: “Don’t dream. Even if I die, I still have Ren Bin below me. The position of base commander will never be yours.”

"Take turns? Hahaha, yes, yes, take turns!" Li Jun laughed loudly. "My nephew-in-law, as long as I kill everyone who stands in my way, it will naturally be my turn!"

"You're insane!" Pan Jinming sneered.

He ended up in this predicament because he was truly blind to have mistaken the other party for a confidant, which led to his betrayal. Others wouldn't be as unguarded as he was. Any deputy base commander would have several bodyguards, and level five evolved humans would certainly not be lacking; how could he possibly have given him the opportunity to harm anyone?

"Are kings and nobles born with a special destiny?" Li Jun laughed wildly. "I've never felt so much like Liu Bang before. It's understandable that someone of your background wouldn't think of these things, after all, you were spoiled since childhood, your family had everything arranged for you, all you had to do was wait in line. It's a pity that the world has changed. I have to thank Little R for bringing these viruses, which allowed me to defy fate and become a person of high status."

Having said enough, Li Jun felt particularly relaxed, and even his strength, which had been stagnant for a long time, seemed to have become stronger. He looked at the sky, which was bluer and the clouds, which were whiter.

The surprise was unexpected, yet it was also within his expectations. Having achieved his goal, he had no intention of sparing Pan Jinming's life.

He leaned close to Pan Jinming's ear, stroking his ear with his fingers, and whispered, "Finish what you haven't finished."

Pan Jinming's pupils contracted, clearly indicating that he understood Li Jun's meaning.

"Shameless!"

The angrier Pan Jinming got, the more smug Li Jun laughed, and said softly again, "I'll take care of your second daughter as well."

Pan Jinming cried out "Ah ah ah," but could no longer make a sound.

Just as he was about to deliver the fatal blow, he heard a crisp clapping sound from behind: "What a wonderful show!"

A middle-aged man with an indifferent expression, dressed in a Zhongshan suit, slowly approached. Before he spoke, none of Li Jun and his confidants noticed the extra person.

Everyone immediately went on alert and surrounded Li Jun and Pan Jinming.

"It's Second Senior Brother!" Zhao Lexi was somewhat surprised when she saw who it was. Second Senior Brother was already over fifty and almost sixty, but he looked no more than forty.

Zhao Lexi found it strange. In the past, she would have rushed out to reunite with her second senior brother immediately. But now, she had been taught by her eldest brother and Gao Jue to hold back for a minute before speaking unless it was an urgent matter. Even if she didn't know what she could do in that minute, she always seemed to be able to think of something.

Her second senior brother's home was in the capital, but she had never seen him after the apocalypse, neither in the previous life nor in this life, and her third brother had never mentioned him.

Now it seems he's not dead and is indeed near the capital. If that's the case, why didn't he meet with his siblings in his previous life? His eldest and third brothers are not nobody in the capital base; a little inquiry would have been enough to find out.

Thinking of this, Zhao Lexi's body sank down, pressing herself tightly against the ground.
