Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus-Chapter 296 - 288: Escaped?

During the climbing process, debris kept falling down.

Li Yu looked at the thing above blocking the sunlight, which seemed somewhat like a metal plate. Can Tiezi, alone, move it?

So, Li Yu also climbed up from another metal rod.

Dadada

Using both hands and feet, the two of them climbed up step by step.

Li Gang below looked up, using a flashlight to illuminate for them.

...

Finally, the two climbed up, one hand grabbing the metal rod while the other tried to push the metal plate open.

Li Tie exerted all his strength but still couldn't budge the metal plate.

Seeing this, Li Yu said, "Together, I'll count to three, then let's push hard together."

One two three!

Push!

The metal plate moved slightly, some debris fell down, blurring Li Gang's vision below.

Again!

One two three!

Push!

The metal plate shifted a little more to the side.

It seemed that this metal plate must have been moved there by Mr. Wang; otherwise, Mr. Wang couldn't have escaped from here.

It was really too heavy.

Although they were only able to use one hand while standing, unlike Mr. Wang, who could use both hands outside, the force exerted wasn't quite equivalent.

But, it was really somewhat heavy.

The two started moving it again.

One two three!

Push.

Finally, a gap of about 10 centimeters appeared in the metal plate.

Sunlight streamed in, immediately making the well very bright.

Seeing this, Li Gang turned off the flashlight in his hand.

"Tiezi, let's do this again. One two three! Push!" After resting for a few seconds, Li Yu urged Li Tie to continue moving the metal plate.

The plate made a grating noise as it scraped against the rock.

The opening became even larger, and Li Yu simply placed his hands on it and pushed.

With their joint effort, they finally moved the metal plate to the side.

With one more strong push, clank?!

The plate fell onto the ground outside.

Their hearts lifted with joy, having finally opened it.

Li Yu was the first to climb out of the well, and the moment he got out, he took the safety off the submachine gun and looked around.

Li Tie also climbed up.

The two stood back to back, observing their surroundings.

A courtyard - they were at a well opening in the top right corner, to the right was a hand-pumped water well, and in front a sweet osmanthus tree.

Behind was a two-story residential house.

There were quite a few buildings around.

However, as they watched, a feeling of familiarity grew.

This place...

Damn, it was somewhat familiar; it was a house they had just passed by.

Except this house was closer to the main road outside.

The main road!

The two seemed to think of something and immediately ran outside.

Two people looked at the open gate of the courtyard and then ran towards the main street outside.

Empty.

The two stood still, staring at the gate.

"How did it go? Did you find anything?" Li Gang, who had just climbed out of the well, asked. Because he had gotten quite dusty down there, Li Gang looked a bit disheveled.

"Found nothing, wait, we did find something. Mr. Wang probably ran away!" Li Tie sighed.

"Damn... it's a plant." Li Gang cursed.

What were the three of them doing just now, all dirty? Half a day wasted and still Mr. Wang got away.

Li Yu seemed to have seen something and quickly walked towards the courtyard, crouching down.

He looked at the tire marks on the ground and then searched around in the neighboring houses.

It seemed that there had been some items here that had now been moved.

There was dust everywhere, but one spot was clean.

This indicated that there were items placed here before.

They must have been taken away recently, which was why it was so noticeable.

It seems that Mr. Wang was living up to his reputation.

"Interesting." Seeing all this in the room and considering the day's tumultuous events, Li Tie thought Mr. Wang had something going for him, being able to escape so abruptly.

Li Yu slapped him; he was in a very bad mood.

"What's interesting about it, damn it, he ran away. Doesn't that bother you? Although he doesn't know our base's location, doesn't it bother you that someone is watching us? I thought we could celebrate after this was over, forget the pig knuckle you wanted." Li Yu said.

Without dealing with Mr. Wang, Li Yu felt like there was a thorn stuck in his throat, making him uncomfortable.

He thought they had caught a good opportunity this time, but their biggest boss ran away.

Damn it... freeweɓnøvel.com

Li Tie rubbed his head, feeling wronged. What did Mr. Wang running away have to do with his pig knuckle?

The three of them searched the area for a while and then found a large iron plate. Just recalling the effort it took to move it earlier made them angry.

They lifted the iron plate, planning to take it back. They had sewers at their base too, and the iron plate seemed to be the right shape and size.

The three of them placed the iron plate on the road junction and walked towards Harmony Garden.

Soon, the trio arrived at Harmony Garden, which was very quiet.

No gunshots, no cries, no sound at all.

It was like a dead city.

As Li Yu stepped into Harmony Garden, an inexpressible feeling of guilt rose involuntarily in his heart.

He knew very well that such quietness meant only one thing.

Everyone in Harmony Garden had been killed, except for the escaping Mr. Wang.

This ineffable guilt and sadness overwhelmed him.

He had given those orders; they were just carrying them out, following his commands.

"Damn, sentimental again." Li Yu cursed.

Li Tie, walking ahead, seemed to hear something, then turned his head and asked, "Big brother, did you call me?"

"It's nothing, just saying you look handsome."

"Why do I feel like you are lying to me?"

"..."

What's the best way to cure sadness and guilt?

That's convincing oneself, something Li Yu was good at.

In a few seconds, Li Yu regained his calm.

Approaching Third Uncle, Li Yu's eyes questioned, and Third Uncle nodded, his profound eyes filled with compassion.

Li Yu felt relieved, then went up to Third Uncle and said, "Third Uncle, their boss, Mr. Wang... ran away. He wasn't in the room, there's a tunnel leading directly outside to 500 meters away, he had already run by the time we got there."

Third Uncle thought for a moment and then asked, "Which direction?"

Li Yu looked at Third Uncle in surprise, then pointed in a direction and said, "It was in that civilian house we discovered. But by the time we got there, Mr. Wang had already run..."

"Okay. Get me a car. I'll chase and see." Third Uncle said evenly.

Without any fuss, Li Yu immediately provided an SUV to Third Uncle and also filled up the car's fuel tank.

"Third Uncle, take care. Do you need someone to go with you?" Li Yu asked.

"It's alright, no need." Third Uncle replied.
