Their guess was correct. Du Yue and He Xing had indeed seen their every move. However, Du Yue did not plan to let them go. Just as she was about to pull the trigger, Zuo Mingdong’s voice came from the walkie-talkie. “Don’t shoot yet. Let’s ask them about the specific situation inside first.”
Du Yue raised her eyebrows slightly. To be honest, she did not think that they would be able to get any useful information from them just by keeping them alive. These people were not ordinary bad people, and the bad things they did were in no way excusable. They did not take human lives seriously. It could be said that they were very scheming. It was not easy to hear the truth from their mouths.
However, since Zuo Mingdong wanted to try, Du Yue had no objections. She would let the three of them live for the time being. If they were not obedient in the future, it would not be too late to kill them then.
Not long after, Zuo Mingdong shouted at the three of them with a loudspeaker, “The three of you, line up in a row and come out with your hands behind your heads!”
The three of them obeyed and walked out of the gate obediently. After walking out of the gate, the three of them stopped at the same time when they passed by the car. Zuo Mingdong saw them stop and shouted, “Continue walking. Don’t stop.”
However, the three of them did not listen to him. Instead, they quickly opened the door beside them. However, there were still corpses in the driver’s seat. If the three of them wanted to get into the car, they had to get the bodies out first. In normal circumstances, it would be easy for three burly men to carry a few corpses down. However, it was not that simple now.
They were especially anxious and worried that Zuo Mingdong and the others would shoot at any time, so their actions were even more panicked. Before they could move a body down, they heard the sound of gunfire piercing through the air. “I’m only going to say this once. Continue walking this way, or don’t blame me for being rude.”
Zuo Mingdong’s voice was cold, but anyone with discerning eyes could hear the anger in his words. Obviously, he had never expected that these three people who had surrendered would actually want to escape in front of him. This was not just a matter of courage. They did not even take him seriously.
When the three of them heard Zuo Mingdong’s words, their hands did not stop moving. They quickly threw two more bodies on the ground and got into the car. They moved quickly and started the car in the next second.
Seeing that they were about to escape, Du Yue and He Xing decisively pulled the trigger. Bullets flew out and killed the three of them. Almost at the same time, Zuo Mingdong also walked out of the car. The people outside the gate had already been dealt with by his men. The people in the courtyard had suffered quite a shock and were hiding in some corners.
According to the plan that Zuo Mingdong had discussed with Du Yue and the others, they were going to head into the courtyard now. They wanted to take control of the entire courtyard in the shortest time possible. Even though they did not have a lot of people, everyone was confident that this would be a great victory for them.
The leaders here had died. These people were leaderless, and they had long been scared out of their wits. Reality proved that Zuo Mingdong and the group were right. After entering the courtyard, they easily dealt with the people hiding in each room one by one. It only took them 40 minutes.
Du Yue, He Xing, and Shen Teng escaped perfectly without any injuries. Two of Zuo Mingdong’s men were injured, but they were only superficial wounds. They would recover after a few days at home. When they came, they had brought disinfectant and bandages, which came in handy now.
They did not kill all of them. There were still more than 20 people left. They were tied up with ropes and tossed into a room. Zuo Mingdong stood in front of them and looked down at them. “Whoever tells me the situation here first will have a chance to live.”
Everyone shut their mouths tightly and refused to speak.
Zuo Mingdong laughed, “You guys are tight-lipped. If that’s the case, then stay here and wait for death!”
Seeing Zuo Mingdong leave without looking back, someone finally could not hold back anymore and hurriedly stopped him. “You… What are you going to do with us?”
Zuo Mingdong coldly glanced at the person who spoke. “You didn’t take the chance when 1 gave it to you, but now you’re starting to care about your own life and death? I’ll say it one last time. Only the one who speaks first will have a chance to live.”
When everyone saw that Zuo Mingdong was not trying to scare them but was serious about it, they could not hold it in any longer. They all fought to be the first to speak.
Zuo Mingdong curled his lips. “I thought you guys didn’t take your heads seriously.”
After saying that, Zuo Mingdong randomly chose a person. “You raised your hand the highest, so you’ll do it..”
