The System Is One Year Ahead Of Schedule, But It’S Not The End Of The World Yet!

Chapter 49: Disappeared out of thin air?

Upon hearing Chen Mo's question about the Yellow Robe Society and the Qing Gang, Zhao Yue was somewhat surprised and asked, "Why are you suddenly asking about this?"

"I met Du Zihang at the Liu family yesterday, and he asked me to help save his father, Du Renyuan. So I wanted to ask what kind of relationship you guys have. If they have any conflicts with you, I won't go," Chen Mo replied with a faint smile.

Hearing this, Zhao Yue immediately smiled and said, "You're a loyal kid. You dare to offend even the Qing Gang for your sister? Come here, sister will reward you with a kiss."

Saying that, Zhao Yue immediately leaned in, causing Chen Mo to take a step back and say, "Be careful of your surroundings."

"Are you afraid that I'll affect your chances with girls?" Zhao Yue said with a serious tone and a smile. "We don't have any conflicts with the Qing Gang. Although we're not particularly close, we also don't have any grudges. We're just cautious of each other, like water and oil."

"Do you think I should save him?"

"If you ask me, I think it's better to save him. If you save him, you'll owe Du Renyuan a favor, which can provide you with some security in Shanghai. It can also help me establish a closer relationship with the Qing Gang, and there may be opportunities for cooperation in the future. Shanghai is currently in a turbulent state, and if Du Renyuan can stand up again, it will definitely add a touch of brilliance to this chaotic situation. And his recovery will most likely be beneficial to us," Zhao Yue analyzed.

Listening to Zhao Yue's analysis, Chen Mo noticed that her demeanor seemed to have changed slightly when analyzing the situation. However, she quickly returned to her usual rogue-like appearance and smiled, "You can decide for yourself. It doesn't affect me either way. I heard that Du Renyuan has an adopted daughter who is very beautiful. If you save Du Renyuan, she might offer herself to you. My silent follower might be stolen away soon."

Chen Mo chuckled and said, "Who said you're my silent follower?"

"You brat, are you planning to forget about your sister once you have a wife?" Zhao Yue immediately grabbed Chen Mo's face.

"I'm sorry, please let go," Chen Mo quickly pleaded.

At this moment, a nearby aunt walked by and couldn't help but laugh, saying, "You two are already so affectionate early in the morning."

Zhao Yue immediately let go and smiled, "This little brother is hard to handle. I'm just teaching him a lesson."

Chen Mo glanced at the passing Aunt Liu and noticed the word "corpse" displayed on her head. It was evident that the apocalypse had arrived, and there were still many deaths. The elderly and weak were more likely to become corpses.

Chen Mo didn't have the energy to save everyone. He only planned to protect the most important people to him. He couldn't care about the life and death of others, nor did he currently have the ability to do so.

"Alright, go to class now and don't be late," Zhao Yue said, patting Chen Mo's back with a serious expression.

"Okay, then I'll go first..."

As he spoke, Chen Mo suddenly paused, feeling that something was off in his surroundings.

He could clearly sense that someone was watching him, not only him but also Zhao Yue.

As someone who had merged with the werewolf bloodline and awakened the Super Perception ability, Chen Mo was very sensitive to the gaze of others.

He immediately closed his eyes and began searching, quickly locking onto the target.

There were five people staring at him, and ten staring at Zhao Yue.

However, it was still unknown whether they were enemies or friends.

Seeing Chen Mo halfway through his sentence, suddenly closing his eyes and stopping, Zhao Yue immediately remembered what Liu Qinlan told her last night about Chen Mo's treatment of Liu Yuanzong, which greatly depleted his vitality.

She quickly approached with concern and said, "Mo Mo, are you okay? If you're not feeling well, you should take the day off."

After confirming the location of all the targets, Chen Mo opened his eyes and smiled, saying, "I'm fine, just got some sand in my eyes."

"Are you sure? Don't force yourself if you're not feeling well," Zhao Yue said, still worried.

"I'm fine, Yue Jie. If I had a problem, would I look so energetic? Look at me," Chen Mo said with a sunny smile.

Seeing that Chen Mo's complexion was indeed fine and unable to find any faults, Zhao Yue could only say, "That's good. If your body hasn't rested well and there's any discomfort, remember to rest more and not push yourself, okay?"

"I know, then I'll go now."

"Okay."

While Zhao Yue watched Chen Mo leave, her gaze shifted to another place where several people were following Chen Mo's footsteps.

Leaving Mingyuan Residential Area, Chen Mo didn't take the usual main road but instead entered a small path, starting to twist and turn between nearby buildings and alleys.

Just as he passed through another alley, his figure suddenly disappeared.

Soon, five people appeared at the entrance of the alley.

These five people were all dressed very casually, looking like ordinary pedestrians at first glance.

But from their movements, it was clear that all five of them were skilled practitioners.

Their muscular bodies were outstanding, not to mention their martial arts skills. Just their physical strength alone would be enough to knock out an ordinary person with one punch.

As soon as the five people arrived at the alley entrance, they looked at each other in disbelief.

"Huh? Where is he?"

"What's going on? Didn't he just turn into this alley? How did he disappear?"

"We've been following him the whole way, and he was the only one. We couldn't have lost him. He walked into this alley, which is at least fifty meters long. He entered less than two seconds ago, and we came right after. It's impossible not to see him, right?"

The five of them immediately curiously walked to the end of the alley, but there was no visible exit in the middle. The alley was lined with walls, with no possibility of leaving halfway. How could this person disappear into thin air?

"Damn it, we lost someone so easily. It's embarrassing to say it out loud!"

"Think back, was there any oversight? Sun, you were at the front just now. Are you sure you saw him enter this alley?"

"I've done this job many times. Can I lose sight of the target? It's just an ordinary alley, just one person. Could I have missed him? He definitely entered this alley, there's no doubt about it. But in just two seconds, how did he disappear from this alley? You ask me, I don't know either."

"What do we do now? We were supposed to keep an eye on him, but we lost him."

"Let's quickly go out and search. We'll report back and send more people. This kid is really cunning! He could have taken the main road, but he chose the small path. And halfway through, he disappeared. We can't keep an eye on him without more people."

Just as Sun finished speaking, a Daoist figure suddenly appeared behind them.
