At the end of the corridor, there was unexpectedly a locker, clearly absent in the early considerations of having someone sneaking in at night…
Under Ling Mo’s watchful gaze, the woman leisurely changed her clothes, occasionally pausing to adjust some details… However, for the battle-hardened Ling Mo, this scene was not enough to disrupt his actions…
“Let’s observe for now.”
From a distance of just under ten meters, Ling Mo silently focused on every move the woman made, his eyes unblinking…
“Ah Jing, come over here.”
The woman called out suddenly while fastening her shirt without even looking up.
At this moment, a rank wind suddenly swept from behind her, followed closely by a hand covering her mouth, while the other arm tightly encircled her upper body.
Caught unawares, the woman’s eyes widened in shock, but she instinctively raised her heel, stomping heavily on the ambusher’s foot.
The seven or eight centimeter high stiletto heel was practically a lethal weapon when used like this. As long as the ambusher felt pain, she could seize the opportunity to break free.
But since Ling Mo had decided to make a move, how could he possibly give her that chance…The stiletto heel hit its mark with precision, but the ambusher behind didn’t budge an inch.
Before she could recover from her astonishment, she was abruptly dragged into the darkness behind her.
“Whimper whimper!”
“Don’t scream, or I’ll break through your last line of defense too!” Ling Mo whispered menacingly.
His threat was evidently quite effective, as the woman immediately remembered something vitally important… she was naked! This line of defense was already tenuous, but it was better than nothing at all!
“So, all three staff members in here are women, right?” Ling Mo asked again.
The woman gritted her teeth, silent but strained to make struggling movements, yet with arms like those of a Zombie Puppet, forged of iron, she had no room to budge.
“Not willing to nod? That’s okay, because it’s actually quite easy to tell. If they weren’t all women, then your bold move of changing clothes near the entrance would be quite daring, wouldn’t it?” Ling Mo remarked thoughtfully.
“Whimper!” The woman could no longer hold back, feeling as if being spied upon was her fault!
“What do you want!” Both quickly pressed into the corner, the woman asked in a muffled voice.
In the darkness, she couldn’t see the other’s face, but from the build, he seemed formidably large.
Compared to the Ambusher, she was absolutely diminutive like a doll…
“He wouldn’t be harboring the same thoughts as King Kong, would he? He couldn’t possibly be thinking of abducting her!”
This thought naturally popped into her head… after all, she was dragged away while changing her clothes!
But for Ling Mo, he realized the opportunity when he heard the woman’s shout…
Ten meters wasn’t too challenging for a Zombie Puppet, but being cautious, Ling Mo did not rush into action.
It was when she suddenly started speaking that Ling Mo felt it was the optimal moment to make a move.
Firstly, speaking would inevitably distract her, and secondly…
“What now? Want me to help you with your zipper again?”
A woman’s voice suddenly came from ahead, accompanied by approaching footsteps.
“Whimper!”
The woman, controlled by Ling Mo, just about to speak out, fainted, her eyes rolling back.
Ling Mo gently laid her down on the ground and then peeked down the corridor.
“Where is everyone?”
The newcomer was a petite woman, looking around in confusion as she called out.
However, she quickly focused her gaze towards the doorway and walked decisively towards it: “Hey, stop playing around, I’m busy over there… Where are you?”
But as the distance closed, Ling Mo sensed something was off.
The woman seemed to behave normally, but was actually tensed up all over.
“Hmm? She seems very cautious…”
This also meant that she might have good skills, possibly even a superhuman…
“Hey…”
The petite woman soon reached the corner and cautiously turned her head, only to be startled.
“How can this be…”
No one was there; the place was completely empty…
In the moment of her astonishment, a Dark Shadow suddenly descended from above, and she was swiftly pinned to the ground.
This entire sequence occurred in less than a second. When she regained her senses from the dizziness, her hands were already held down, and a woman in a state of unconsciousness had appeared beside her.
From what she could feel, the Ambusher was sitting on her back, and had raised a karate chop just as she came to…
After knocking out two staff members, Ling Mo tied them up together temporarily.
Considering that two of the three were Members of the Second Camp, Ling Mo did not intend to be overly harsh.
Despite accidentally seeing quite a bit, those were all unintended…
The most crucial point was that neither of them had seen the face of his Zombie Puppet clearly.
With the aftermath dealt with, the next step was to take care of the last person.
Ling Mo had a vague feeling that this third person, who had not yet appeared, was likely the nail at the heart of the Second Camp… and one of the direct reasons for the danger to him…
Deep within the archive room, there was a tranquility.
Cabinets neatly arranged like those in a Library segmented the vast space into numerous small sections, with dim yellow light shining down from above, casting even darker shadows around.
And within this shadow, a figure was cautiously moving through.
Light footsteps, agile and decisive movements…
“Hmm?”
A woman who was browsing through documents suddenly turned her head, looking towards the darkness.
The Dark Shadow immediately halted, pressing against the back of a cabinet.
“Discovered? Impossible, if it were a mental ability user, my psychic tentacles should have sensed their probe…” Ling Mo thought, motionless.
The woman had short, efficient hair and her features were not clear. Judging from her build, she appeared quite ordinary. If it weren’t for specific information, Ling Mo would have had a hard time believing this person was the nail. She seemed to casually look ahead, appearing as if pondering some issue…
Yet, Ling Mo sensed an unusual air about this woman; it was late, and while the other two staff members were slacking, she was still working… Maintaining such a level of alertness while fully focused was not something ordinary people could achieve.
Seeing that no one else was around, the woman set down the file she was holding and slowly walked forward, though not in the direction of Ling Mo’s hiding place. It seemed as if she was searching for some documents, but Ling Mo had the persistent sensation that her eyes were somehow fixed on him…
This woman… she’s something else.
Even with her not looking directly at him, Ling Mo didn’t dare to move. Through the gaps between the cabinets, he kept a close watch on her, using the Zombies’ stealth instincts to their fullest extent. At the same time, he began to feel something wrong with his body. Some of his muscles started to shrink, and it felt as though the flesh inside was melting away… At this rate, it wouldn’t take long before he became nothing more than a heap of rotting flesh.
The distance between them shrank rapidly until, just as the woman turned past another cabinet, a soft noise suddenly emerged from the darkness.
“Thud!”
Ling Mo’s heart skipped a beat, but he quickly realized what had happened.
Before he could react, a voice sounded from behind him, and he felt a cold sensation on his neck: “Who are you?”
The woman’s voice was calm and mechanical, with no hint of trembling in her fingers as she stood with meticulous precision right behind Ling Mo.
Ling Mo thought to himself. Her handling of the situation was incredibly composed, and she acted decisively… Moreover, her skills were extraordinary.
To have remained hidden for so long, she’s clearly not someone easy to deal with…
“Well then…” She didn’t even wait two seconds before applying more pressure with her wrist.
A sharp pain shot through his neck, and Ling Mo was suddenly alarmed, feeling as though something had pierced his carotid artery.
Such speed!
But then, she abruptly halted her move.
She quickly spoke again: “Who are you?”
