Chapter 1120: Chapter 669: Bloodline Suppression
With a thud, Li Hao froze, and his phone fell to the ground.
Everyone’s faces turned pale.
A girl said, “Let’s go save him!”
Everyone ran towards the apartment door, but as they ran, someone sensed something was wrong. Turning back, they saw Li Hao pulling some rich kids in the opposite direction.
“Wait, where are you going?” the girl asked.
“I’m going to call the police,” said Li Hao, disappearing onto the street without looking back.
The remaining four stopped in their tracks.
They no longer dared to bring up the idea of rescue.
“Call the PCE Security Management Committee!”
A girl, trembling, dialed the phone: “Hello, is this PCE? We have rats here that bit someone to death!”
Laughter came from the other end: “Damn, don’t call in the middle of the night, you hear? And rats killing people? Filing a false report will get you jailed… A couple of K bars!”
With that, the call was hung up.
The four grew even more desperate.
“Call Chu Ci brother,” the girl suddenly suggested, “It’s a matter of life and death, no matter how mad he is, he won’t ignore us.”
In the past, whenever faced with adversity in the wilderness, everyone’s first instinct was to find Sun Chu Ci.
The journey through the wild was thrilling yet safe; back in the city, they found weapons and firearms, and life improved instantly.
Gradually, they almost forgot about Sun Chu Ci’s deeds in the city until they encountered danger again.
Everyone hesitated for a while; they had only deceived Sun Chu Ci recently, and now they had to ask him for help?
Still, considering it’s a life-and-death matter, they finally gritted their teeth and dialed the number.
“Sorry, the user you are calling has turned off their phone.”
Truth is, some people won’t always wait for you.
The four students said, “Shouldn’t we… just leave first? Li Chao must be beyond saving, and we need to find a way to tell Kunlun about this.”
“Yes, let’s find Kunlun’s people; the academy gave us emergency rescue numbers!” One student finally remembered Kunlun.
They made the call, and as soon as they explained the situation, the other side immediately became serious: “Don’t stay there anymore, come to No. 172, Black Lin Street, in the 8th District. I’ll wait for you here.”
Kunlun’s secret headquarters in City No. 10 was located in the 8th District.
It wasn’t about keeping a low profile or anything, but indeed the current residential environment in the Lower Three Districts is, apart from being a bit shabby, much better than the 4th, 5th, and 6th Districts…
Granted, it still couldn’t compare to the Upper Three Districts.
At this moment, Xiao Wu and others suddenly returned, staring intently at the four students about to leave: “Did you encounter something just now?”
The group planned to find some fun, but Xiao San, having honed his reflexes through battles in City No. 22, noticed something amiss.
As he passed the alley, he felt unsettled, so after walking a distance, he turned back.
Some students exchanged glances: “We encountered rats biting people to death.”
The Parents’ Meeting people felt a chill!
Honestly, the concept of the Parents’ Meeting was somewhat misplaced.
The Lower Three Districts actively engaged in pest control, and joint defense work made rats run helter-skelter; gradually, rats were no longer seen in the Lower Three Districts.
So they thought rats had been completely eradicated. Just yesterday, the Parents’ Meeting had internally honored three rat-elimination heroes with “outstanding individual” accolades.
One of these rat-elimination heroes was the brother who wanted to show Xiao San the world.
This also explained why the rats in the alley immediately fled.
Like the market chicken-slaughtering lady only needing to touch a hen for it to stiffen completely, this rat-elimination hero had already reached bloodline suppression.
In the Parents’ Meeting’s view, rat infestations were supposed to be eradicated, but the facts now told them this rat disaster seemed to be spreading across the whole city, not just the previously messy Lower Three Districts.
Moreover, the rat hordes were growing in number, even daring to publicly kill!
This was a terrifying matter; the Parents’ Meeting group looked around, unsure how many rats might be mutated in the city or where they hid, and how many victims there might be.
A sharp intuition told the family that the situation wasn’t as simple as imagined, something big was about to happen!
Xiao San frowned and said, “We must make the Federation aware of this matter, this is City No. 10, the political center of various power plays. If something goes wrong here, the entire Federation might be in trouble. Call the PCE and inform them about this!”
A girl said, “It’s useless; we’ve already called, but they simply don’t believe us and even threatened us with jail for filing a false report.”
Xiao San’s frown deepened: “Call the media, get them to expose this!”
With that, a family member picked up the phone and dialed: “Hello, Oriental Media? We need… Celebrity? We don’t have any celebrity dirt.”
The voice on the other side said, “If you don’t have celebrity gossip, why are you calling me? I only want that stuff, and audiences only watch that stuff.”
With that, the reporter on the other end hung up the phone.
Xiao San and the others were dumbfounded; has the Federation’s media rotted to this extent? Only celebrity stories count?
Xiao San pulled the family aside and whispered, “This cannot be delayed; we need to contact the Black Family Member and parents soon. Stop playing around; urgent matters take precedence.”
