Lu Xiaoran looked around and noticed a middle-aged woman sitting on the ground about ten meters away, her face filled with terror. This woman had also tried to escape earlier, but in her haste, she tripped over a stone and fell to the ground.
He decided to ask her a few questions. With a light step, Lu Xiaoran approached the woman. She thought he was coming to kill her and screamed in fear, pushing herself backward with her hands on the ground. However, her speed was no match for Lu Xiaoran's quick strides.
Before long, he stood before her, bending down to ask, "Did you kill those villagers?"
The woman's face was etched with fear as she shook her head vigorously, stammering, "N-no... it has nothing to do with me. It was... it was those people."
As she spoke, she pointed toward the direction where the others had fled.
After pondering for a moment, Lu Xiaoran continued to question her, "Where did you come from? Why did you come to this mountain?"
The woman trembled all over and nervously replied, "I... I came from Southern District... because I saw that video online."
Lu Xiaoran's eyes widened in surprise as he asked, "Video? What video?"
The woman explained the general content of the video to him. Suddenly, Lu Xiaoran recalled the video he had sent to Lu Zhengjun earlier. Could it be that old Lu Zhengjun posted the video online?
Once back at the safe house, Lu Xiaoran opened his phone and searched online until he finally found that video. It indeed had been posted by Lu Zhengjun's account. He clicked into the comments section and saw what Wang Fugui had written at that time.
In summary, it detailed their previous failed attempts to attack the safe house and warned anyone planning to ascend the mountain to bring advanced cutting equipment so they could break into the safe house.
This video likely wasn't posted by Lu Zhengjun; it seemed more probable that it was uploaded by the Village Committee Director from before. Lu Xiaoran remembered that during a recent video call when Wang Fugui threatened him, he had used Lu Zhengjun's phone.
Furthermore, attracting outsiders to come up the mountain with advanced equipment to attack his safe house certainly aligned with Wang Fugui's interests. When was this video posted?
Lu Xiaoran checked the timestamp of the video and realized it had been posted over half a month ago. During this time, he had been busy researching information about the Yiren Research Institute online and hadn’t paid attention to the situation outside the safe house.
He was unaware that a group of outsiders had gathered on the mountain during this period. He also didn’t know that the villagers of Dragon Ridge Village had been wiped out by these outsiders last night.
This was not a good sign. If that video continued to circulate online, it might attract all sorts of trouble. Lu Xiaoran furrowed his brows, deep in thought.
Previously, someone had exposed his abilities online, which led to him being targeted by the Yiren Research Institute. Now, with this video spreading, it could potentially draw in some troublesome enemies. Although it would be difficult for them to breach the safe house, there was still a chance they could destroy the entire mountain, putting Lu Xiaoran in danger.
