A swift and decisive victory in the early stages, a post-apocalyptic survival story in America!
Chapter 31 is getting more and more interesting.
Inside the Dodge pickup truck, Richie and Lola were silent for a moment.
With police lights flashing behind them, the LAPD had arrived at the crime scene.
The scene was cordoned off, and unauthorized personnel were not allowed to approach. Police officers were busy investigating the scene.
Police will soon be checking for suspicious vehicles in the vicinity. The identities of the two robbers who were shot dead are unknown. The police investigation is now focused on who used a gun to kill the two burglars.
Li Qi had disguised himself before sneaking into Grant's house, and he took the bullet before leaving. He had done everything he could. Whether he would be found out or not depended on his luck.
Lola, in the passenger seat, glanced at the backpack in the back seat, then looked at Li Qi, remaining silent for a long time.
The whole process was like a farce.
"Put me down up ahead, the station will notify me to come to the scene in a bit." Lola pointed to the intersection ahead, where her car was parked.
"Keep in touch, I'll contact you later." Lola gave Li Qi a deep look, got out of the car, and closed the door.
Having left his phone number, Li Qi wasn't worried that Lola would do him any harm.
With the video of her committing the murder and the shared experience we just had, Lola, as long as she's of sound mind, won't betray him.
Things are getting more and more interesting, and this little girl can't do without my help.
Driving back to William Thomson's mansion, all six women were already asleep. Li Qi quietly entered the house through the back door, glanced at Sophia's room, and then went up to the master bedroom on the second floor.
To his surprise, there was someone on the bed in the room.
Having just experienced the night's carnage, Li Qi was on edge. Hearing the faint breathing sound, he was so frightened that he immediately raised his pistol.
It took him a long time to calm down after confirming that he was safe.
Everyone says that killing people is bloody, and this job is definitely not easy.
Li Qi was a little curious. Who was so brave as to directly take over his room and sleep there?
After taking off his clothes, Li Qi went to the bathroom to take a shower. When he came out, the person on the bed was already awake.
Young and vibrant, with blond hair and blue eyes, still sleepy-eyed, it was Sophie.
"Owner……"
Sophie was a little embarrassed. She grabbed the edge of the blanket to cover her body, leaned against the headboard, and bravely looked at Li Qi.
"What are you doing here?" Li Qi dried himself off and started using a hairdryer to dry his hair.
This long hair is troublesome, making Li Qi, who was used to super short hair in his previous life, feel very uncomfortable, but his current identity requires him to shave it off for the time being.
"My mother said that when the master comes home at night, he will want to see... to see me here..."
Sophie lowered her eyes and glanced at Li Qi, a mixture of anticipation and nervousness in her gaze.
Li Qi had indeed mentioned this to Cindy.
Although he was eager to try it immediately, things always take time to develop, so Li Qi wasn't in a hurry and focused on completing the mission for now.
Unexpectedly, Cindy was very considerate and immediately arranged for Sophie to wait in the room.
With my current physical condition, I can barely handle one, but two would be too difficult.
No rush, take your time.
The night in Los Angeles was slightly chilly, but the top ten beauties in the middle of the night were burning hot. Li Qi was like the lord of this castle, enjoying the rights bestowed upon him by heaven.
Li Qi and Su Fei discussed for a long time and finally managed to persuade Su Fei.
The task is complete, and the progress has changed to "3/6".
However, Sophie was clearly stronger than Li Qi had expected. Not only did she refuse to surrender, but she also dared to resist. It was no surprise that Li Qi, who had just finished killing people, had no choice but to go on another killing spree.
……
……
At the crime scene, Laura followed behind Chief Maeve McCorllist, her brows slightly furrowed.
The facial features of the two victims had completely disappeared, and the only way to confirm their identities was through dental records.
The forensic pathologist had already left, and the police were all outside. With no one else around, Maeve quietly asked, "What do you think?"
Based on the facts, Lola stated her judgment: "A double-cross? They knew Nick had hidden money at home, so they came to steal it?"
Maeve shook her head helplessly: "What I'm asking you is, who killed these two people?"
Lola shook her head: "That's hard to tell, isn't it? It could be an accomplice of the robbers, another group of robbers, or even Adele's lover."
Maeve looked at her young subordinate with amusement and shook her head slightly: "The safe was ransacked. Adele said she didn't give anyone the password. Whoever was able to open the safe must be very close to Nick..."
"You mean... Nick's superiors and subordinates are here to search for evidence?"
Maeve nodded: "We can't speculate any further until these two people are identified. For now, we can only wait for news from the police station."
ERO has no authority to participate in the investigation. Maeve is here as a deceased subordinate's superior to offer condolences to the family.
As for Lola, it's obviously for the same reason.
Adele and her three daughters have been taken away under police protection. The house has been searched for evidence and is now a crime scene; unauthorized personnel are not allowed to enter.
After seeing Maeve off, Lola agreed to discuss the matter further at the station the next day. She returned to her car and sat quietly for a long time, feeling a wave of exhaustion wash over her.
She felt she was just unlucky to have been tricked by Nick.
But after tonight's events, Lola realized that she really was both stupid and foolish.
When Lola accidentally saw that skinny Dodge, she thought her chance had come. When she turned back, she saw the two men climbing over the wall into the yard.
Driven by curiosity and a strong desire to protect innocent women and children, Lola followed them into the hospital without a second thought, intending to trap them and achieve a remarkable feat.
Unexpectedly, the bandits were so vicious that they used a child as a hostage to force him to submit. If it weren't for that skinny guy...
To this day, Lola still doesn't know the other person's name, only that he has an alias, William Thomson.
That was Nick's alias, something Lola already knew.
This frighteningly thin young man was a terrifying marksman; he killed two bandits with a single shot, saving not only Adele and her three daughters, but also himself.
—No, he saved himself again.
It seems like I always get into trouble?
Lola was plunged into deep self-blame and self-doubt.
Back home, Lola took a shower, but still couldn't fall asleep.
The scene of Nick's killing flashed before my eyes once again, alternating with the images of the two thugs who were shot in the head tonight.
Frustrated, Lola finally couldn't resist, opened a bottle of strong liquor, and took a big gulp.
As the strong liquor went down her throat, she slid down against the wall and sat on the ground, burying her face in her hands and sobbing uncontrollably.
She didn't know how much time had passed when her phone suddenly vibrated, startling Lola awake. She realized she had been sleeping on the floor until nine in the morning.
A phone call from Director Maeve McCallister.
"Hello, Chief, I'm sorry, I was too tired last night and overslept this morning," Lola hurriedly answered the phone, explaining repeatedly.
"I'm not calling you about this. I have some bad news. The bodies of those two people were stolen in the middle of the night after they were taken to the forensic center..." Maeve's tone on the phone was somewhat dejected, yet it also revealed a hint of excitement.
Lola immediately realized what this meant.
This shows that those two people were definitely not simple robbers, and their goal was definitely not the cash in Nick's house!
Things are getting more and more interesting.
