Doomsday Club

Chapter 42: Attack in the Dark

Only fit to be a secretary?

As the company's pampered young lady, it's incredibly easy for her to be assigned a cushy job with only a salary.

Making Xu Nuo her secretary was solely to satisfy Lin Xiaoxiao's own selfish desires.

She didn't know if it was because of the dream, but now she felt a strange sense of security whenever she was with Xu Nuo.

It just so happens that he wants to join the company, so wouldn't it be the perfect choice to be assigned to be his secretary?

If there's any real problem, she can help cover for you.

"So what do I need to do now?"

"Time to go home."

Lin Xiaoxiao spoke as if it were the most natural thing in the world, giving off the impression that "today's work is already finished."

"Then I'll treat you to dinner."

"Okay, okay."

She looked at Xu Nuo with a smile; these were the words she had been waiting for.

In the restaurant.

The two chatted casually until they finally talked about what would happen twenty years from now.

"Going to Harbin in a while?"

"Um."

Xu Nuo nodded: "Now all the clues point to Harbin, we have no choice but to go."

The timing hasn't been confirmed yet.

He's just started working here, so the company needs to do a thorough investigation first.

The Other Side organization in the real world has surfaced, while I'm still hiding in the shadows. It would be a disservice to myself not to take advantage of this information gap.

"Then just let me know when the time comes."

Lin Xiaoxiao swallowed the food in her mouth: "I'll talk to my dad about it and ask him to let me take charge of the branch office's business."

Upon hearing this, Xu Nuo's expression shifted slightly.

The problem that had been bothering him before seemed to have been resolved.

If Lin Xiaoxiao goes to Harbin with me, does that mean her future will also change?

Twenty years from now, she will probably appear in Harbin.

As for Mingyue and Lao Wang, they can also use this method after they have figured out the situation in Harbin.

In this way, the teammate's problem is solved.

Xu Nuo nodded and said, "Okay, then we'll go together."

"Doomsday Club! Advance Team!"

Lin Xiaoxiao raised her glass, and the cola foam inside exploded like fireworks, as if celebrating the birth of the team.

Xu Nuo looked at the cute girl in front of him, suddenly laughed, and then raised his glass to clink glasses.

"Cheers!"

"Cheers!"

They downed their ice-cold beer in one gulp, exchanged a glance, and smiled knowingly.

Lin Xiaoxiao is definitely cuter now!

They could live carefree lives without experiencing so much pain and hardship.

"The other side of a thousand cuts..."

Xu Nuo sighed and muttered a curse under his breath.

……

……

……

"Wow, wow, it's been so long since I've driven, I'm a bit rusty."

"Boss, where are we going now?"

Twenty years later.

Mingyue drove the pickup truck from the Doomsday Lord's garage at breakneck speed through the twilight, its wheels kicking up a cloud of dust.

Harbin.

"Okay!"

Mingyue nodded and drove the car towards Harbin.

On the road, they encountered survivors who had come out to find food. The young man looked at the cars on the road with surprise on his face.

This thing can actually move?

He was born after the apocalypse and had never seen a perfectly good car.

In my memory, isn't this just a metal shell that's always parked in the city?

He runs so fast...

Sensing the surprised looks from others, Mingyue honked her horn triumphantly.

The sudden noise startled him, and he nervously ran into the house, cautiously peeking out with only his eyes showing.

But they discovered that the car they had just seen was nowhere to be found.

"So fast..."

The young survivor was amazed, but his gaze was soon drawn to the abandoned cars on the roadside.

It's only dusk now; there's still a long time until dawn.

If it's just a trial, I shouldn't die in there.

Actually, Xu Nuo hadn't originally planned to let Mingyue drive.

This guy drives incredibly fast, it's so unsteady.

Those who can keep the accelerator locked and never lift their foot will not have a as stable riding experience as Lao Wang.

Unfortunately, Lao Wang had never been to Harbin, and without navigation, Lin Xiaoxiao didn't know the route to Harbin.

Only Mingyue knew the way and could drive, so the responsibility of being the driver had to be entrusted to him.

"Slow down, slow down! The lives of everyone on this bus are in your hands."

"What are you waiting for, Lao Da! Harbin is quite far from us."

Mingyue said casually, "Time is life!"

They only had one night to travel, and they had to find shelter before dawn and could only move around after sunset.

If it were just people, it would be fine; the few of them could easily find a place to stay for a day.

But there's still the car; we can't just leave it outside like that.

The truck bed was filled with several barrels of oil. If anyone dared to park it outside, it would explode into a pile of fragments in just a few minutes.

Then they don't need to go to Harbin; they can just reopen it directly.

Xu Nuo shut up.

Mingyue sat obediently in the back row with Lin Xiaoxiao, letting Mingyue do as she pleased.

"Pfft."

Seeing Xu Nuo's embarrassed expression, Lin Xiaoxiao couldn't help but laugh.

"Want to take a nap?"

He patted his thigh, indicating that Xu Nuo could lie on his lap and sleep for a while if she was tired.

I wasn't actually sleepy...

Xu Nuo opened his mouth as if to refuse, but then swallowed the words back down.

Come to think of it, it seems like I haven't slept in a long time.

Normal sleep time in reality is all given to the apocalypse twenty years from now.

He obediently lay on Lin Xiaoxiao's lap, opening his eyes but unable to see Lin Xiaoxiao's current expression.

Involuntarily taking a deep breath, Xu Nuo forced herself to close her eyes, suppressing the shock in her heart.

Sensing Xu Nuo's reaction, Lin Xiaoxiao blushed.

Mingyue saw the two people's movements in the rearview mirror, and sorrow welled up in her heart.

Damn that prison!

You've been driving all this way, and here you are, sleeping on a beautiful woman's lap.

Is this reasonable? Is this reasonable? Is this reasonable?

People's joys and sorrows are not the same, and this problem is too big.

For a moment, the car sped up a few points.

Mingyue channeled her grief and anger into driving skills, speeding towards Harbin.

In the early hours of the morning, the car was parked next to an abandoned building on the side of the road.

Old Wang got out of the car first, and cautiously approached the building with his weapon in hand.

Xu Nuo and Lin Xiaoxiao followed behind him, the three of them forming a small team and slowly moving forward.

Mingyue, who is practically useless in combat, will stay in the car and come to their aid whenever there is danger.

The apocalypse is dangerous; proceed with extreme caution.

They didn't know if there were any survivors living in the building, but it was always better to be cautious.

Footsteps echoed through the empty floors as they looked around, the beams of their headlamps following their gaze.

In the darkness, someone was already slowly approaching.

"who!"

Someone suddenly sprang up from a dark corner and struck Xu Nuo hard on the head with a wooden stick.
