Abnormal survival in the end times

Chapter 286 Revenge
It's him
Lu Chengqian's lips trembled twice, and the words "Yan Qi" were about to come out of his throat, but were forced back in by the other party's indifferent yet murderous gaze.

Lü Yanqi, no, it should be Du Qiyan, he came back to seek revenge!
Du Qiyan glanced at Lü Chengqian, then turned his gaze to the woman sitting on the ground, trembling.

She was already in her early fifties, but because of her comfortable life and proper maintenance, her face looked like she was not even forty. However, this usually delicate and elegant woman was now clutching her neck, her face turning a deep purplish-red.

"Are you feeling very uncomfortable?"

Du Qiyan walked to the dressing table, picked up the head on it with one hand, walked step by step toward the woman, and then threw Lü Siya's head into her arms.

"Does this scene seem familiar? Wang Minfang, remember what my mother once told you? 'The net of heaven is vast, its meshes are wide, yet nothing escapes it; the justice of heaven is clear, and retribution is swift.' What you and your mother have done, you will reap what you sow! So... you're afraid too, aren't you?"

When Du Qiyan was fifteen, a student in his mother's class had a younger sister who happened to be a classmate of Lü Siya. Because of a minor conflict, she harbored resentment and plotted to kill her, just as he was doing to her now.

How old was Lü Siya at that time? Twelve years old.
How could a twelve-year-old girl be so vicious!

The other party's mother was terrified on the spot. Wang Minfang appeared in time, knocked her unconscious, and then took care of Lü Siya's aftermath. The body was taken away, and the house was completely cleaned up, with all traces erased.

What she didn't know was that the little girl's brother, who was also Du Qiyan's mother's student, liked to tinker with cameras and often bought broken parts to reassemble into all sorts of strange shapes and put them in various corners of the living room.

Therefore, although the murder scene was in the bedroom, the entire process was clearly filmed because the door was not closed.

However, when the USB drive was handed over to the police station, they were told that it was blank and contained nothing.

Meanwhile, the family's computer was also damaged, and all the content on the little girl's brother's social media accounts was deleted and blocked.

With nowhere else to turn, the older brother thought of Teacher Du.

Because of this, Du Qiyan's mother discovered Wang Minfang and her two children.

The upright and kind-hearted teacher Du was determined to seek justice for her students and didn't care at all about the relationship between the mother and daughter and her husband.

She never imagined that Lü Chengqian would actually harm her.

When Du Qiyan received the news, his mother didn't have much time left. Perhaps the last bit of conscience that Lü Chengqian had left was allowing them to see each other one last time.

His mother was already unable to speak at that time, otherwise Lü Chengqian would not have allowed them to be alone together.

He thought Du Qiyan knew nothing, and was planning to send him abroad to study after his mother's funeral, and then wait another year before marrying Wang Minfang.

To everyone's surprise, a document and a USB drive appeared in the hands of the Lu family patriarch the very next day.

Grandpa Lü had high hopes for his eldest grandson, Du Qiyan, and doted on him. But no matter how much he loved him, Lü Chengqian was still his son. He could disregard the children Wang Minfang had, but he couldn't ignore Lü Chengqian's career and future.

He maliciously covered up the truth and murdered his wife.

If either of these two points is revealed, Lü Chengqian will be finished.

But the old man also knew that since it concerned his mother, his eldest grandson would not agree unless he did something.

But he never expected that his eldest grandson would want to sever ties with Lü Chengqian and leave the Lü family.

Du Qiyan's words at the time were very harsh, reflecting his extreme disappointment with the Lü family. He realized that the Lü family, which was hailed as a prominent family in the Southern Province, was actually rotten to the core.

He made it clear that if he wasn't allowed to leave, he would either kill him or wait for him to grow up and take revenge on Lü Chengqian. In short, within his sight, only one of them—himself or Lü Chengqian—could survive.

No one expected that a father and son would come to this.

The old man remained silent for a long time before finally having to back down—allowing his eldest grandson to leave the southern province safely was, in his opinion, the biggest concession he could make.

In the first year of the apocalypse, the old man contracted the zombie virus in a nursing home and became one of the first to have his head chopped off.

When Du Qiyan heard about it, he felt nothing at all.

Since the person who made the verbal agreement is dead, there is no need to maintain the agreement.

The moment Wang Minfang instinctively hugged her daughter's head, the ice covering her melted almost instantly, and Lü Siya's long hair fell into her arms.

Wang Minfang was startled and instinctively threw her head out. With a thud, her head landed on the frozen floor and rolled towards the door.

"mom"

Just then, Lu Siqi, who had come from the easternmost bedroom to check after hearing the commotion, reached Lu Siya's doorway, and the head rolled right to his feet.

Lu Siqi looked around the room, then at her feet, then back up at the room, then down at her head, and suddenly turned and ran.

Unfortunately, although the body turned around, the feet didn't move.

"Yan Qi."

Lu Chengqian finally uttered the name, and his next words were meant to be, "He's your brother, what happened back then had nothing to do with him, please spare his life."

He wanted to say these words because he was certain that his eldest son had come for revenge, and that neither he nor Wang Minfang would escape.

Although they hadn't seen each other for over a decade, he knew all too well his eldest son's abilities and shrewdness.

Since they were able to enter their villa without being detected, it means the guards outside were no longer effective.

Even if the guards outside were still alive, no one could stand against him with his ability to freeze the entire room into ice in an instant.

His special ability is truly rare.

Although I really didn't want to admit it, a trace of regret still welled up from the depths of my heart.

He should have chosen his ex-wife and children back then.

These thoughts flashed through her mind, and when she looked at Du Qiyan again, facing his indifferent and cold gaze, she couldn't utter the rest of her words.

Du Qiyan didn't give him a chance to speak. An ice pick flashed past his eyes and then, with him and Wang Minfang as witnesses, pierced through Lü Siqi's chest.

“I’ve said it before: the Lü family is rotten to the core. So to change the status quo, we have to eradicate it from the root.”

Seeing the large hole in her son's chest, Wang Minfang was filled with shock and anger. Her eyes were wide and bloodshot, as if they were about to jump out of their sockets.

She opened her mouth wide, the ice shards blocking her throat melted, and liquid choked her trachea. She coughed violently, and then it was as if a switch had been flipped, and she coughed incessantly, coughing until her nose and eyes were full of snot and tears.

But she didn't bother wiping herself, coughing as she crawled towards Lü Siqi. "Ah, son."

Finally able to speak normally, Wang Minfang held the lifeless Lü Siqi and wept bitterly.

"Kill him, Lü Chengqian! You kill him!"

Du Qiyan looked at Lü Chengqian, a mocking smile playing on his lips. "She said you should kill me. Do you want to?"

"Yan Qi, you are my son."

"Shut up!"

Du Qiyan interrupted him with a stern face, "When you laid a hand on my mother, did you ever think about the fact that I'm your son?"

He pointed at Lü Siya, then at Wang Minfang, "For the sake of this mother and daughter, you murdered your wife. No, actually, when you decided to help them, you were essentially helping yourself. You were afraid your relationship with them would be exposed, afraid your image would be affected. Because my mother insisted on revealing the truth and refused to cover up your despicable actions, you decided to silence her. And now, because they are no longer useful to you, even if I kill them in front of you, you will remain unmoved, right?"
"You said I'm your son, not to plead for this woman, but to remind me that you are my father, and I cannot kill you. Lü Chengqian, I wasn't wrong, that's what you were thinking, wasn't it?"

Selfish people only think of themselves; even their own children are insignificant compared to their own lives.

"Yan Qi, it's not like that. Your mother's situation was an accident back then."

Before Lü Chengqian could finish speaking, he suddenly felt a chill in his chest. Looking down, he saw a fist-sized hole in his left chest, from which blood was gushing out.

His face turned deathly pale in an instant, and he raised his right hand to cover the wound, his entire hand turning red in an instant.

"you"

He managed to utter only one word before his body gave way and he collapsed to the ground with a thud.

Wang Minfang's crying stopped abruptly. She looked at Du Qiyan with shock and disbelief. He actually wanted to kill her father!

As I walked out of the Lü family villa, the clouds in the sky were just blown away by the wind, revealing a crescent moon, gentle and serene.

Du Qiyan looked up at the sky and then slowly exhaled.

The pent-up anger in his chest was exhaled at that moment, leaving his body completely.

Mom, did you see that? Your son has avenged you!
When Lü Chengqian left his mother alone, she endured the pain and stammered out one sentence to him: No, revenge!

Zhizi Moruomu!
Teacher Du had always been in good health, and her sudden death would surely arouse suspicion in her son. Most importantly, Lü Chengqian's ruthlessness had exceeded her expectations. In order to prevent her son from being put in danger and from wasting his time and effort on the investigation, she decided to tell him everything.

So before she encountered danger, she secretly hid the information she had gathered in her son's email.

At that time, Du Qiyan lived at school and was often away from home, so even if Lü Chengqian destroyed all the documents and computers in her possession, he would never have imagined that there was a copy hidden in his son's bedroom.

His mother didn't let him take revenge, firstly because he was too young and inexperienced, and would easily be suppressed and killed.

The second reason is that he felt that Lü Chengqian was still his father, and even if he had to put the family aside for the greater good, he would still live an unhappy life.

But what she never expected was that if she didn't take revenge, Du Qiyan would never be able to let it go for the rest of his life.

it's good now
Du Qiyan raised his hand and pushed up his glasses. Starting tomorrow, he would no longer carry the burden of a blood feud. His future would be bright and clear, completely different from the past.

"Yan Qi".

Under the dim streetlights, a young man with a cane stood not far away, looking at him with slightly red eyes.

Du Qiyan quickly walked down the steps, opened his arms and hugged his friend, unable to hide his emotions, and said, "Jingrui, I'm sorry!"

"Who wants your apology?"

Xu Jingrui knew in his heart that even though he had a hard time these past few years, how much better off could Yan Qi be?
"Captain Liao wants to see you, are you going?"

The Captain Liao that Xu Jingrui mentioned is the commander of the defense force, Xu Jingchuan's superior.

This person is a true member of the Lü family faction and is very loyal to Lü Chengqian.

No, it should be said that he was loyal to the Lü family.

Before being infected by the zombie virus, Old Master Lü had instructed him that if Lü Yanqi didn't return, he would follow Lü Chengqian's orders. But if Lü Yanqi returned, everything should be done with him first.

Before Du Qiyan entered the Lü family villa, Xu Jingrui secretly went to see Captain Liao.

Based on his previous reputation in the military and his childhood friendship with Lü Yanqi, Captain Liao remained silent for three minutes before saying, "I can turn a blind eye tonight, but I need to see Lü Yanqi afterwards. And—"

“If the entire Lü family is gone, Lü Yanqi must stay in the Southern Province.”

He was a rather stubborn and pedantic man, and so far, the only person they had encountered who was over forty and still had awakened supernatural abilities.

In order to improve his physical fitness during junior high school, Du Qiyan and Xu Jingrui were sent to the army for training by Grandpa Lü. At that time, Captain Liao was in charge of training the two.

So strictly speaking, this person is still their teacher.

Because of their past relationship, during the years when Du Qiyan was away from the Southern Province and the Lü family was doing their best to suppress the Xu family, Captain Liao appeared to do nothing, but in reality, he was secretly protecting the Xu brothers.

Otherwise, Xu Jingchuan would not have been able to become the deputy captain of the defense department.

Du Qiyan did not intend to stay, even though Captain Liao had given him some convenience and assistance during tonight's operation.

"Let's go. I'll meet with everyone related to the Lü family tonight."

Lu Chengqian also had several cousins ​​and sisters, and quite a few brothers and sisters of the same generation as Du Qiyan. However, most of them were spoiled brats like Lu Siqi, incompetent and lazy. Before the apocalypse, they wandered around like playboys, but fortunately, they became self-aware after the apocalypse and stopped being as arrogant and domineering as Lu Siqi. Most of them stayed at home obediently and didn't dare to utter a word.

Some with a bit of ability simply hold minor official positions in the military and coast along.

Du Qiyan didn't want to see any of the Lü family members. He wanted to meet people who were capable and resourceful, and who could help Jingrui and his brother in the southern base in the future.

Overnight, the southern base underwent a complete change of leadership.

Base Commander Lü Chengqian died suddenly of a cerebral infarction at night, and Xu Jingchuan's elder brother Xu Jingrui temporarily took over as base commander.

The defense department personnel remain unchanged, and Xu Jingchuan will select people to fill the vacancy of the original base commander's guard team.
The sun rose as usual on the second day, and the work at the base continued as usual. Ordinary people would at most discuss the new base commander with curiosity for a few words, and then go about their business as usual, busy with their daily lives.

As for the sudden death of the former base chief, and even the fate and whereabouts of his wife and two children, most of it was just casual gossip. After a few days, it seemed that these people were forgotten, and they flocked to the management office to see the new rules and reward measures promulgated by the new base chief.
