1687 The Perfect Cover (1/2)

Li Yumei lay still in the tent. She was confused and terrified, having no idea what was going to happen after she closed her eyes. She had fallen asleep beside Lu Zhuo many times, but it was different this time. Lu Zhuo had turned into someone she was unfamiliar with. She was more scared the more she thought about it.

Lu Zhuo waited quietly inside the tent. He was fondling Li Yumei, and slowly took off her clothes.

The drug needed a little more time to come into effect. He could slowly enjoy his time in the tent.

Lu Zhuo enjoyed the feeling that he was the only person alive in this world. He could do whatever he pleased. He no longer had to put on a disguise.

A while later, Lu Zhuo buckled his belt back on and left the tent.

The island was deadly quiet, and not even the cries of insects were heard, as if they had all been driven away by Lu Zhuo's ruthless demeanor.

There were many tents nearby, most of them were still lit, but the Hunters were all lying about on the ground. Not a single one was awake.

Lu Zhuo was very familiar with this Single-Line Island. The island had a cold spring. Every Hunter on the island was most likely going to drink from the spring. The Thousand Islands Lake was a huge lake, but there were not many sources of drinkable water. The Thousand Islands Lake was like a huge steamer basket lately because of the weather, so most people would have the urge to drink the cold water from the spring.

Li Yumei was so dumb. Even until now, she had no idea that she was his accomplice. Lu Zhuo had put a dose of the hypnotizing drug in the water pouches he gave to her!

It was the hypnotic drug that Luo Mian had given him. The Hunters currently on the island could not even tell they were drugged. They would not detect it even with the best devices. After all, it was not really a kind of poison!

Lu Zhuo had purposely chatted with Li Yumei until late at night to ensure that everyone had drunk the water. He even spent some time bidding farewell to her body for the last time. He quickly surveyed the island and discovered that everyone was lying on the ground.

The Foehn Hunter Squad was fast asleep, and the Hunter Group beside them was asleep too. The Hunter Group at the back of the island was not making any sound. The people left on night watch were sleeping like dead pigs, too.

Lu Zhuo went to the back of the island to do a thorough check, using a poisonous wind to further enhance the effects of the drug. He was making sure everyone that drank from the spring was unconscious.

”You unlucky people, I'll let you sleep for a little longer. I'll deal with you later,” Lu Zhuo chuckled, glancing at the tent of strangers.

Lu Zhuo returned to the front of the island and noticed a figure staggering along the shore. She did not seem to be drugged heavily.

Why did he bother wasting his time and energy on Li Yumei, whom he had played with so many times, when he had a better option?

As a matter of fact, Lu Zhuo was not interested in Li Yumei in the first place, but she had taken the initiative to approach him. She had also forced Gu Ying to leave the party with her little tricks. Lu Zhuo ended up losing his chance to enjoy himself a fine meal!
