After the dust settled, Fu Yan silently put away his umbrella and shook the dust off the ground.

"Heh, that's good." Wenren Lei shook the dust off the meatballs and asked, "You came out like this? Won't your boss get suspicious?"

Anna said seriously, "Of course I will, so once I rescue Han Mingyue, the one who is a purification ability user, I have to immediately retreat back to Zone 1."

Wenren Lei paused for a moment, lost in thought: "Han Mingyue... why does that name sound so familiar?"

Anna said, "Right? She looks a lot like Han Mingjie. I haven't had a chance to ask her if she knows Old Han yet, but this kid seems a bit autistic."

Wenren Lei also planned to ask Han Mingjie when he had some free time. He said, "Tell me the specifics."

Anna said, "The Cataclysm Research Institute's activities of capturing and purifying ability users are becoming increasingly rampant. A month ago, I encountered this group while on a mission in another city, and I managed to sneak in."

"You've been to their branch number 04?"

Anna gently shook her head: "No, they've been searching for and purifying ability users outside and haven't gone back. I've only met their superior a few times; his name is Qiao Lang."

I originally planned to take this opportunity to sneak into Branch 04 with this group, and then join forces with District 1 to wipe them out in one fell swoop.

"But their relationship with Qiao Lang was too bad; even after they captured the purification ability user, the research institute was slow to come to their aid."

Wenren asked tearfully, "What is Qiao Lang's position in the research institute?"

"He is the director."

Wenren Lei continued, "Does he have a boyfriend?"

"He should..." Anna subconsciously followed Wenren Lei's words, then, realizing what he meant, glanced at Fu Yan and cautiously asked, "You're not with Fu Yan anymore?"

Wenren Lei clicked her tongue and said coldly, "I was just asking."

"Oh..." Anna said, "I don't know much about my boyfriend, but I do know that he lived in Qinggang City before the outbreak."

If someone settles down in Qinggang, does scientific research, and is named Qiao Lang, then it's absolutely certain that she's his mistress.

When Wenren Lei thought about how his older brother had smiled at Qiao Lang with the same gentleness he had shown him, and even how he had whipped Qiao Lang with a belt, Wenren Lei became very unhappy and wanted to chop Qiao Lang into pieces and feed him to Wanzi.

He took a deep breath: "Just tell me how to proceed."

"Saving people isn't difficult; the real challenge is dealing with the black market lord," Anna said in a deep voice. "He wants to awaken his powers by consuming crystal cores and has already formed a partnership with Qiao Lang. Once we make our move, he will definitely seal off all exits, completely cutting off our escape route."

Wenren Lei, anxious to find the location of Branch 04, said impatiently, "Where is the Black Market Master? I'll just kill him."

Anna said helplessly, "I believe in your abilities, but nobody knows his location."

Wenren Lei pondered for a moment, then beckoned to Anna: "I have a way."

Anna leaned closer, and Wenren Lei muttered softly for a while. The more Anna listened, the wider her eyes widened, and she hesitated, saying, "Isn't this... a bit too much of a fuss?"

Wenren Lei nestled into Fu Yan's arms and chuckled, "What's so great about it? I think it's not lively enough yet. You just need to take Han Mingyue and run, and you don't need to worry about the rest."

Anna looked at the two men in front of her.

Wenren Lei is a person whose entire being screams, "I'm arrogant and I'm extremely unreliable."

But in the early days of the apocalypse, the various arrangements Wenren Lei made told Anna that although he was crazy, he was actually very reliable.

Now, let's add a smarter version of Fu Yan who looks very reliable.

Anna decided to go crazy with Wenren Lei. She raised her hand to look at her watch: "It's 10 p.m. now. The black market owner may have already noticed us. Time is of the essence. We need to start the operation at 1 a.m.

But I must warn you, I have a purifying ability user with me. The black market lord is hesitant to act rashly and will likely not choose to target me first. Therefore, the two of you will become his primary targets for elimination.

Wenren Lei stood up, stretched, and said casually, "Let him come. Don't worry, go back and prepare."

Anna got up and walked to the door, then turned back and asked, "By the way, how are Niannian and the others?"

Wenren Lei said, "They have all awakened their superpowers, are training very well, and are living very well. Now they are driving around in RVs looking for their families."

Anna smiled and said, "That's good."

Wenren Lei remembered that Cheng Nianli had also been concerned about Anna before, and he said, "I thought there would be a rift between you two."

"No," Anna said, "it's just that we didn't take the same path."

She pushed open the door and waved, "I'm leaving now."

Subsequently, Wenren Lei and Fu Yan also left the mansion.

"Seventh Table" is the most popular restaurant on the black market and also the tallest building in the area.

Wenren Lei and Fu Yan squatted on the roof of the restaurant, overlooking the entire black market.

"Aww..."

Just as Maruko raised its head, ready to howl at the sky, Wenren Lei grabbed the puppy's mouth.

"Shh, keep it secret."

"Woof..."

"Good little dog." Wenren Lei released her grip, turned her head and instructed, "Brother Yan, go back to the hotel and bring the butcher shop owner over. I'm worried something might happen if it stays alone for too long."

"I'll be back soon. Be careful and don't act rashly. If you encounter any danger, shout for me." Fu Yan paused and added, "Especially, don't jump off buildings."

Wenren Lei couldn't help but laugh out loud: "If you're not by my side, I'll jump off a building and die. I'm not stupid."

"My sweet baby."

Just as Fu Yan was about to leave, Wenren Lei called out to him, "Wait a minute."

"What's wrong?"

Wenren Lei took out the mask given to her by the auction house from her spatial ring and handed it to Fu Yan: "Wear this. It's not a good thing for too many people to remember your face here."

Fu Yan took the mask and put it on his face. Then, he lightly touched the ground behind the restaurant with his toes and began to run away. In no time, he could no longer be seen.

Wenren Lei put on her mask and looked down at the crisscrossing streets below.

Standing at a high vantage point, he could finally see the entire black market. The entire area was centered around the "Seventh Table" restaurant, with all the buildings arranged in concentric circles that radiated outwards.

"No wonder the streets are curved."

Wen Renlei was shocked to realize that the alleys between each shop could be easily blocked.

Once chaos erupts in the black market, each ring can instantly close into an impenetrable wall, making it increasingly difficult to break through the central circle, and an escape route for ordinary people is virtually impossible.

These things are completely undetectable on the ground.

Anna's hotel happened to be located in the third ring road of the central area, and to get out, she would have to break through the obstruction of at least a dozen rings of buildings.

"A disastrous location."

After Wenren Lei finished her evaluation in a low voice, she pondered for a moment and decided to pave the way for Anna in advance, otherwise she wouldn't be able to break through many rings by herself with Han Mingyue.

He took out paper and pen, wrote down the discovered circular layout and the breakout plan, rolled it into a small paper roll, and stuffed it into a silver bottle the size of a little finger.

"ball."

"Woof!"
