Chapter 402 Trap

Chapter 402 Trap
They have done similar things more than once.

In the team of ten people, there are those who specialize in contacting and communicating with others to gather intelligence; there are also those who are physically strong and good at fighting.

Lu Ting and Qiu Kui divided them into two groups.

Strategy group and combat group.

There are four people in the strategy group and six people in the combat group. The latter is led by Li Feng. They all carry weapons, such as knives, axes, and hammers. Everyone will also take some protective measures, such as wearing helmets to protect their heads when taking action, and they will also stuff some thick books on their chests and stomachs.

This thing has pretty good defensive capabilities.

The new girl who joined their team was assigned to the strategy group, and she was responsible for communicating with the owner of the hotel and obtaining the key.

"This time, I'm guaranteed to get four [Memory] cards. If I can pass the level, everyone present can get an extra [Memory] card. This way, I'll make a profit." Lu Ting calculated the profits. As the leader of a small group, she had a lot of things to consider.

Fortunately, she had Okra to help her share the burden.

Li Feng is good at fighting, so gradually, the decision-making has been completely handled by Lu Ting and Qiu Kui.

"I will go in with the combat team in a while. You will take care of things outside. If there is any unexpected situation, please notify us immediately." Lu Ting said to Qiu Kui.

During the time they spent together, they became good friends because of their similar personalities.

"Be careful of your own safety and don't rush to the front. Even if it's a single murderer, there are strong and weak ones." Qiu Kui warned.

"Don't worry, we have a lot of people. Didn't we get through this way when there were only three of us? What's more, Li Feng now has a card that increases his power, and he is no longer the same as before." Lu Ting smiled.

"I think we should confirm the situation in the hotel again. So far we've only heard the story from the newcomer who provided the information, and many things have not actually been confirmed." Qiu Kui hesitated and raised her concerns.

"If that happens, once we alert the enemy, it will be difficult to carry out the operation this cycle day. If we delay it until the next cycle day, each of us will need to use a [Memory]. Although we have accumulated a little now, in fact, the foundation is still too thin. If we don't gain anything on any cycle day, we will be stretched. Qiu, I know your concerns, but we need to seize the time and develop quickly, otherwise, the team we have worked so hard to build will fall apart."

Obviously, Lu Ting sees things more deeply.

A team of ten people needs to preserve memories, and each cycle day requires ten [memories], which is definitely a considerable "expenditure".

Therefore, every cycle day, you must obtain at least ten memories to ensure a minimum.

Qiu Kui naturally knew this situation, so she didn't say anything more.

At this moment, everyone is acting according to the plan.

The newcomer went to see the hotel owner, and a few minutes later she came back and handed a bunch of keys to Lu Ting.

The keys have labels corresponding to the room numbers.

They selected the four rooms where the four murderers were located separately.

"There are four murderers, three men and one woman. According to the hotel registration information, the female murderer is in room 304. Start with this weak target. Remember, don't make too much noise, otherwise, it will be easily noticed by other murderers." Lu Ting warned.

"Don't worry, we have a plan." Li Feng was holding a two-foot-long knife in his hand, and he also had an outdoor survival axe on his waist.

The men in other combat groups also held weapons, and some took off their backpacks and placed them on their chests.

There is an iron plate in the backpack, which has strong defensive capabilities.

"Open the door." Lu Ting handed the key to a member of the combat team in front of her. The latter arrived at the door of Room 304, listened carefully, and when there was no sound, he inserted the key into the keyhole very cautiously and slowly turned it.

He tried his best to open the door without making any noise. After the door was opened, he took out a sharp knife, nodded at the others, and then walked in. The members of the combat team followed him in, and the last one was Lu Ting.

At this time, Qiu Kui glanced at the team members who were responsible for keeping watch in the corridor and monitoring the rooms of the other murderers. They all made safe gestures.

Next, just wait.

But it won’t take too long, at most a minute, and the murderer in room 304 will be dealt with.

It would be best to kill him quietly. If there was any noise, we would need to change our tactics. The worst case scenario would be to alert the remaining three murderers.

Lu Ting had already made some portable explosive devices in advance, using things that could be bought from hardware stores and supermarkets, including sugar, detergent, alcohol, deodorant, cotton thread and nails, as well as some gasoline, which were layered and stuffed into cans.

All you need to do is connect the layered isolation papers with strings, pull them out violently, and mix those things together, and boom, an explosion will erupt that is powerful enough to kill a target at close range.

But this is the last resort, so try not to use it if possible.

The explosive devices were installed at the doors of the other three murderers, connected to the door handles and hung there. That is to say, if the people inside wanted to come out and twisted the sliding door, it would cause an explosion.

Time passed by second by second.

Suddenly, shouting and loud noises were heard from room 304.

"Something happened!" Qiu Kui's heart skipped a beat. She was at the door and opened it immediately, but the situation in the room made her extremely frightened.

Many people in the combat team fell down.

Now, Li Feng is the only one holding on.

Even Lu Ting fell in a pool of blood. She was covered in blood. When she saw Qiu Kui open the door and come in, she turned her head and shouted directly, "Run!"

the reason is simple.

There is not just one female murderer in room 304, but five.

Four men and one woman, and they are all here.

When Qiu Kui saw the situation in the house, an idea suddenly came to his mind.

Trap! This was a standard trap. From the open closet and torn curtains, it could be seen that someone was hiding there before. The members of the combat team had jumped into this trap without knowing it.

No need to ask, there is something wrong with the new team member.

But now is not the time to think about that.

Without saying a word, Qiu Kui rushed over and helped Lu Ting up.

She found that both of Lu Ting's arms had been chopped off and the scene was extremely bloody.

They already knew about the existence of the card ring. Qiu Kui saw an arm dropped on the ground at the first time. It was Lu Ting's. She immediately grabbed it and dragged Lu Ting out.

On the way out, Li Feng was also knocked down.

"Run, run quickly."

Until the last moment, Li Feng was still shouting, trying his best to give Qiu Kui and Lu Ting a chance to escape.

The five murderers were very strong, especially when they started with a sneak attack, which caught the combat team off guard. This result was not surprising.

Qiu Kui carried Lu Ting on his back. Her heart beat faster and her mind went blank. She just kept running.

Finally, she exhausted her last bit of strength and ran out of the hotel door, which immediately caused a commotion among passers-by outside. Many people gathered around her, and when Qiu Kui looked back, she found several murderers with knives standing at the door.

They didn't chase them out.

It may be due to the limitation of scene area.

But Qiu Kugui didn't feel like he had survived a disaster at all.

Because this means that except for her and Lu Ting, all other companions stayed inside.

Someone called an ambulance, but when the ambulance arrived, Qiu Kui noticed that Lu Ting's eyes were dim.

She is dead.

Fortunately, at the last moment, Qiu Kui put Lu Ting's card ring on her. Seeing Lu Ting's body disappear, Qiu Kui felt relieved. At least it meant that Lu Ting had preserved her memory.

During the following period, Qiu Kui didn't know how he managed to get through it.

She was arrested and interrogated by the police, but before that, Qiu Kui had swallowed her own card ring.

When questioned, she said nothing.

Because there is no need, everything will be reset after today.

Instead, she took this opportunity to think.

Think about what happened today and why it failed.

There is no doubt that the new person who joined them is a traitor. This was a trap set by the other party, but how did the other party join forces with the murderer?

What on earth is that other party?
In addition, the companion who fell to the ground at that time did not seem to be killed, but was only injured and disabled.

What are they going to do?
Suddenly, Okra realized a possibility.

"What if those people are not murderers?"

As soon as this possibility appeared, Qiu Kui felt goose bumps all over his body.

If he is not a serial killer, then it means that the scene in the hotel is not a certain scene.

They were deceived from the beginning.

The newcomer was the same as them. Similarly, the few "murderers" ambushing in the hotel were actually the same as them. Their purpose was to steal the card rings and cards.
In an instant, everything clicked.

Things that were originally incomprehensible suddenly became clear.

At this moment, anger filled his heart. Qiu Kui screamed, struggled, and cursed like a madman, venting the hatred in his heart.

Then she felt fear.

If the other party is not a murderer, but a "person who restores memories" like them, that is to say, the other party also knows the weaknesses of the person who restores memories.

They will never leave any hidden dangers behind, they will root them out, that is, plunder everyone's cards.
Qiu Kui thought a lot, and in an instant, tears welled up in her eyes.

The following time was simply torture for her.

Finally, the clock struck midnight.

Qiu Kui's eyes went dark, and the next moment, she sat up from the bed, found her phone and dialed Lu Ting's number without saying a word.

She was afraid that the other party would not answer.

What’s even more frightening is that the other party will pick up the phone and then ask in a strange tone: Who are you?
For a few seconds, she was as nervous as a criminal waiting for sentencing.

Finally, the call was picked up.

"Okra, see you at the usual place!"

After hearing what Lu Ting said, Qiu Kui finally breathed a sigh of relief.
