Stockpiling Supplies&Raising a Child in a Post-Apocalyptic World by DrawingCards

Chapter 104

Armed guards surrounded Lin Ran and Mo Shuyu, cuffing them.

"This way, ladies," the squad leader gestured.

Lin Ran looked at the cold handcuffs on her wrists and shook her head in resignation. She could easily break them with her strength, but she couldn't risk it.

As Lin Ran and Mo Shuyu were escorted to the armored vehicle, Lin Zhenguang glanced at them and said, "Let's head back to the shelter. Have the tech team redeem everything from that machine and then report back to me."

"Yes, sir."

After giving these orders, Lin Zhenguang boarded the armored vehicle. He leaned back in his seat, eyeing Lin Ran and Mo Shuyu leisurely. "So, tell me, what did you get from that machine?"

"Nothing much, just some basic supplies," Lin Ran replied calmly, as if she were telling the truth.

"Supplies? What kind of supplies are worth risking your lives for? If they were just basic supplies, you could have gotten them from a nearby store, right? Miss Lin, I advise you to be honest. Don't forget your current situation."

Lin Ran stared back at Lin Zhenguang. "I'm telling the truth. You just had someone draw from the machine yourself. You can check what they bring back."

"True enough. Cheng Hang, fetch my satellite phone," Lin Zhenguang said, still watching Lin Ran closely, and she returned his gaze.

Soon, Lin Zhenguang made a call. "Sir, I've captured Lin Ran. Do you have any specific orders?"

He paused for a moment, presumably listening to the response. "Understood. Don't worry, we'll keep a close eye on her. Thank you, sir."

After hanging up, Lin Zhenguang smiled. "Miss Lin, thanks to you, I'm about to get a promotion. Don't worry, I'll make sure you're well taken care of at the shelter."

Lin Ran's cold eyes bore into Lin Zhenguang, but she said nothing more.

Ten minutes later, the armored vehicle arrived at the Jiangliao City shelter. Lin Ran and Mo Shuyu were taken to an interrogation room, where they were strapped to chairs, their arms, wrists, and ankles tightly bound.

This feeling of helplessness was unsettling, like fish on a chopping block.

Lin Zhenguang didn't follow them in but returned to his office. Soon, his squad leader, Cheng Hang, entered.

"Sir, the tech team has returned. They've successfully redeemed everything from the machine," Cheng Hang reported promptly.

"Quick, let them in," Lin Zhenguang said, his curiosity piqued. He was eager to find out what was so important that such a large force had been deployed.

"Yes, sir," Cheng Hang immediately went to open the door, allowing a few people waiting outside to enter Lin Zhenguang's office.

"Where's the stuff?" Lin Zhenguang asked impatiently.

One of the technicians, feeling a bit uneasy, responded, "It's all in here."

As he spoke, he placed a cardboard box in front of Lin Zhenguang.

Lin Zhenguang stood up and looked inside the box, his face growing angry. "How could it be just these things? Are you sure these were taken from that card-drawing machine?"

"Yes, sir. We even had someone record it. The machine had a total of ten red frames, and five of them had already been emptied by someone else."

"What were the items that were taken?" Lin Zhenguang asked urgently.

"A bottle of gene enhancement serum, one spatial upgrade (which increases space by 10 square meters), one motorcycle upgrade (either a performance upgrade or the installation of a mechanical arm), one shield card, and one pheromone card. I took photos." The technician pulled out his phone and handed it to Lin Zhenguang to show him the photos.
