Life Dungeon Game

When there is a shortage of manpower, these mobilized personnel can only be drawn from other tasks.

He Ao's thoughts raced.

The people who captured Hayes didn't know 'Jess', which means they didn't share information with the people who killed 'Jess'.

Even if the people who killed 'Jes' were transferred to capture Hasie, it wouldn't be so easy to get this previously isolated mission information together.

Moreover, throughout the entire process, from the banquet to the underground parking lot, and even the elevator in between, He Ao deliberately avoided the cameras and did not leave any images of his face.

Now that Hai Xi has a powerful C-rank assistant by her side, this information should have already been leaked.

But probably no one knows yet that this powerful 'C-rank' is 'Jace'.

This means that some kind of information gap has arisen.

He Ao raised his bracelet, opened his email, and saw that Hai Xi's scheduled email had just arrived. He saw Talent Sequence 111: The Terrorist's Recipe.

His gaze quickly swept over the detailed materials above and landed on the promotion ceremony at the bottom.

[Promotion Ceremony: In the depths of darkness, bringing fear to the ignorant who walk in the night.]

He Ao raised his head and looked ahead.

"Hai Xi, can you do me a favor?"

Chapter 546 The Lonely Tower (Extra-Large Chapter, Requesting Monthly Tickets)

Under the pitch-black night sky, a black SUV riddled with bullet holes and with almost all its windows shattered except for the windshield, slowly drove along the road.

He Ao, with a cigarette dangling from his lips, held the steering wheel with one hand and turned the rearview mirror toward himself with the other.

He glanced at his reflection in the rearview mirror: his hair was disheveled and hanging loose, his face looked haggard and crazed, his exquisite evening suit was torn and ripped everywhere, and his light-colored bow tie was stained with bright red blood.

The rising smoke blurred the mirror. He Ao looked away from the rearview mirror, tilted it up slightly, and then looked up ahead.

The roads in the western district are not smooth; everywhere there are chunks of cement crushed by heavy construction vehicles, making off-road vehicles feel a bit bumpy when driving on such surfaces.

Shops were open on both sides of the road, and some homeless people, dressed in rags and covered in mud, were huddled in the corners of the shops under the lights.

They looked at He's vehicle with a hint of curiosity.

Even in the West District, it's not a common sight to see someone driving such a dilapidated vehicle around. He Ao had already seen many such curious glances along the way.

However, everyone was only curious; once they entered the West District, almost no one dared to stop He Ao's car.

He Ao didn't encounter any domineering gangs or bandits.

After all, while the gangs in the West District may be crazy, they still have eyes. Driving a car like that might not mean they're rich, but it's definitely not something to mess with.

He looked back and saw that there were no pursuers following him on the street behind him, as if he had really shaken off the enemies behind him.

The dilapidated SUV drove steadily into the depths of the run-down streets.

He glanced at the image displayed on the Eve navigation screen on his wristband, then gently pressed the accelerator. The SUV suddenly accelerated and turned into the deepest part of the night.

A somewhat dilapidated detached building gradually came into He Ao's view.

The building is not tall, only about four or five stories. It seems to have been an abandoned building that was then poorly repaired by someone to maintain its original appearance.

This type of building has a special name in the western district: 'Sleep Building'.

In the western district, there are many such "sleeping buildings". Most of these buildings have long exceeded their service life and are at risk of collapsing at any time. However, because the people living in the buildings cannot afford to pay enough money to rebuild them, they can only make simple repairs and pretend that they are normal buildings to continue to be used.

The cheapest rental properties in the West End are often located in buildings like these.

It is called the "Peaceful Sleep Building" because it provides a place for the poorest people in the city to sleep peacefully, sheltered from the wind and rain, although a night's peaceful sleep often becomes an eternal one.

Of course, not all 'sleeping buildings' are rented out. Some buildings in better condition may be converted into commercial spaces by gangs.

For example, the four- or five-story "sleep building" in front of He Ao right now is covered with many business signs, and it has obviously been transformed into a bustling shopping mall.

However, the mall lights were on at this moment.

But the entrance was unusually quiet, like a vigilant sentry standing guard in the night, waiting for something to arrive.

He Ao slowly turned the steering wheel and parked the SUV at the entrance of the mall.

At the same time, he picked up another wristband from the damaged center console of the SUV and sent a message to the person displayed on the wristband.

This bracelet belongs to Hai Xi.

The shopping mall in front of them was one of Hai Xi's properties, and she had deployed people in the vicinity as a backup plan to protect herself.

Almost the instant He Ao sent the message, a figure rushed out of the mall. He looked around and his gaze quickly settled on He Ao's black SUV.

Then he rushed over in a few strides, stopped in front of the SUV, and looked inside. "Boss?"

His voice rose, and a smile of excitement appeared on his face.

Then, his smile froze when he saw the empty interior of the SUV. His smile gradually faded, and he turned to look at He Ao. "Where's our boss?"

"I don't think I've ever told you what kind of car I drive."

He took the cigarette butt out of his mouth, smiled and stubbed it out, then turned to look at Ruo En.

“I…” Ruo En was taken aback, then immediately said, “Your car is the only one that’s parked outside right now, I could tell at a glance.”

Then, after composing himself slightly, he asked quickly and fiercely, "Where's our boss? How did her bracelet end up in your hands?"

"Hai Xi went to another place. I came here. She told me to come back and find you to take me back to the bar to get my original clothes."

He Ao said calmly, then waved his hand, gesturing for Ruo En to sit in the passenger seat. "Get in?"

"Are you telling the truth?"

Ruo En glanced at He Ao with a hint of disbelief. His prosthetic eyes gleamed faintly. His gaze fell on the Hai Xi bracelet in He Ao's hand. He stood up, took a step back, and quickly said…

“You call the boss, I want to hear her voice with my own ears. I now suspect that you murdered the boss and took her bracelet.”

The moment he finished speaking, figures dressed as mall staff and carrying submachine guns emerged from the night and looked at He Ao.

These people should all be Hai Xi's subordinates.

He was at least once Hai Xi's subordinate.

"can."

Heo lifted Haixi's bracelet, unlocked it with the password Haixi had given him, and began to open his contacts, seemingly searching for a communication target.

"Slow down, I can't see your movements clearly, don't try anything funny."

Ruo En watched He Ao's actions and snorted coldly.

"it is good."

He looked up at the direction of the mall. From his angle, he could see the edge of the mall's rooftop.

He thought for a moment, then leaned back on the cushion, letting Ruon block his view.

"What are you doing?"

Ruo En frowned and subconsciously reached for the gun at his waist.

"Adjust to a comfortable position."

He Ao glanced at him with a smile, "Is that not allowed?"

“Don’t move,” Ruo En said, watching He Ao. “Until we get confirmation from the boss, you can’t rule out suspicion. If it’s confirmed that you hurt the boss, even if you are very…”

"If you're strong, I'll take action against you too."

"What if it's confirmed that your boss is alright?"

He Ao asked with a smile as he flipped through his contacts.

"Then I will apologize to you."

Ruo En immediately said.

His face appeared upright and unyielding, seemingly exceptionally loyal to Haixi.

"Are you very loyal to Haixi?"

He Ao asked with great interest.

"Of course, I've been with the boss for seven years, making me the person who has been with her the longest. When I first started working for her, she was just a junior middleman."

Ruo En looked at He Ao, chuckled, and replied with a touch of pride, "I've helped her with many things over the years. Without me, she might not have gotten to where she is today."

"so······"

He Ao paused in his hand as he flipped the wristband. He glanced at the rearview mirror, which he had just tilted upwards, and saw the view of the top of the mall reflected in it.

After glancing at the scene in the rearview mirror, He quickly looked away, turned his head, smiled at Ruon, and continued, "Do you think you could replace her and become the most famous middleman in Wetterland without her?"

At the same time, his other hand moved slightly downwards, touching the edge of the driver's seat. He still had a smile on his face as he looked at Ruon. "So, you betrayed Hayish, joined the Hermes Corporation, and tried to kill Hayish and take her place?"

"Huh?" Ruo En paused, instinctively taking a half-step back. "What did you say? I don't understand. Don't try to play tricks on me."

At this moment, He Ao suddenly moved the switch on the edge of the seat, and the driver's seat, which was originally upright, was quickly folded down, causing He Ao, who was lying on the seat, to also lie back.

boom--

The sharp bullet streaked across the sky in an instant, piercing Ruo En's chest, passing through the shattered driver's side window, and the scorching heat almost grazed He Ao's nose before striking the rear door, blasting a large hole in the still largely intact door body.

A very powerful sniper rifle.

He quickly reached down and touched the pistol hidden under the seat.

At this moment, Ruo En was still standing next to the SUV, staring wide-eyed at He Ao.

The sniper bullet had pierced his chest, leaving a hole the size of a bowl, revealing a dense network of glowing wires inside.

A look of confusion flickered in his eyes. He opened his mouth and reached out his hand to He Ao, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything.

Just a second ago, he was still fantasizing about the lavish life he would lead after becoming the most famous middleman in Wetterland.

His whole body swayed weakly and he fell backward.

That bullet just now destroyed his prosthetic core, completely destroying his prosthetic body.

Just as his body was falling backward, He Ao straightened up and raised the pistol he had just grabbed, aiming it at the top of the mall.

As Ruo En's body fell, the last obstacle between He Ao and the mall rooftop disappeared. He Ao's hands moved almost without pause, and the moment the pistol was pointed at him, he instantly pulled the trigger.
