Lu Li was somewhat surprised to have unintentionally saved the mother and daughter.
As soon as the rope was untied, Teresa reached for her live-streaming phone, only to find it was shockingly hot to the touch.
This was naturally done by Lu Li. He could render electronic products like cell phones and surveillance cameras completely useless with just a glance; he was practically a human EMP.
Teresa searched Lucardo's body again, frantically found his phone, unlocked it with his finger, and handed it to her mother.
Maria calmed herself down and then made several phone calls.
Lu Li only recognized that one of the calls was to the City Hall; he didn't know anything else.
He didn't care and turned to go about his own business.
Standing beside her mother, Teresa suddenly realized she hadn't thanked her yet.
He looked up to find Lu Li, only to discover that the man was carrying a PKM machine gun and walking into the factory office.
Gunfire erupted, but stopped abruptly a few seconds later, and Lu Li emerged again.
He walked past Teresa's face as if nothing had happened, and a short while later returned carrying a "recoilless cannon," even closing the door behind him...
A loud explosion was heard, and the door was blown off and slammed into the workshop wall.
Maria had just finished the phone call when she was startled, "What's wrong!"
Teresa pointed with a complicated expression to the smoking office...
The mother and daughter exchanged glances, and then Lu Li emerged, dragging two enormous travel bags.
He had just discovered a room locked by a metal door inside, and then used some methods to open it.
There were $5 million in cash inside, which is a pretty good find.
Lu Li dragged his money bag out of the "brick pressing machine" workshop, and the mother and daughter hurriedly followed him...
But I was stunned when I came out!
The factory was littered with corpses, the bodies and limbs of armed men scattered everywhere!
They walked forward, trembling. The road was littered with gruesome corpses, and the thick stench of blood made it hard to breathe.
Only after leaving the factory did they have to accept a fact:
Lucardo and his hundred elite men are all dead!
These are 100 elite soldiers who have undergone professional training and possess heavy firepower!
And the attacker... was only this one handsome, disabled young man!?
How could this be? It's not a Hollywood blockbuster!
The mother and daughter were utterly shocked, unable to comprehend how it was done!
Teresa stared blankly, speechless...
However, Ms. Maria's expression changed, and she quickly stepped forward, saying solemnly:
"Thank you for your help. You said you were Teresa's classmate? How did these thugs... die?"
Lu Li calmly replied, "My name is Lu Li, and I'm in the same class as your daughter. I killed all these bandits."
Upon hearing this, Teresa blurted out, "Impossible! There are at least a hundred people here..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was stopped by a stern look from his mother!
Teresa immediately understood—facts speak louder than words, and the corpses scattered on the ground were more convincing than any words could.
Regardless of how he did it, he is... an extremely terrifying person!
Ms. Maria bowed deeply:
"Mr. Lu Li, I sincerely thank you for your help. Please allow me to express my highest respect."
Lu Li waved his hand and said:
"I was just doing it on a whim. If you really want to thank me, then let me go unnoticed. I don't want to waste my time."
Ms. Maria said with a solemn expression:
"I understand. This matter will never appear in any records... It was the Marine Corps who wiped out the bandits."
Lu Li nodded. "Thank you for your understanding. That's all for now, goodbye."
After saying that, he turned and left without looking back, carrying two large bags of money.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Teresa felt uneasy at his casual attitude. "He just left like that?"
Normally speaking, even if you're not afraid of retaliation from drug lords, you should still worry about legal judgment, right? You just killed 100 people!
Ms. Maria solemnly said:
"This person... doesn't care about us at all, nor about the government or the law."
Teresa nodded. He was indeed a lawless person, but he was also the one who had just saved her.
She took her mother's arm and walked forward, wanting to leave the drug lord's stronghold first.
But when I got to the front door, I almost threw up again.
This place is full of corpses that died under [Meteor Shower], even worse than those in the factory. There isn't a single intact body; they're already crawling with flies.
Gazing at this horrifying scene, Ms. Maria exclaimed in astonishment, "How did they do that? Kung Fu?"
The woman struggled to pull a piece of car wreckage from the ground, her expression unusually grave.
"With such terrifying skills, and disregard for the government and the law, this person is more dangerous than a drug lord!"
Teresa thought her mother was acting out of a sense of justice and trying to provoke Lu Li, so she quickly tried to stop her...
But unexpectedly, the next second, Ms. Maria's expression became excited:
"This is my last piece of the puzzle! The most crucial piece!"
"Teresa!" she excitedly instructed her daughter.
"I'm going to immediately confiscate Lucardo's assets and deposit 20% of them into Lu Li's account. You can then personally visit him to express your gratitude once more!"
This was clearly an attempt to win her over, Teresa immediately nodded. "Yes, Mother."
Maria touched her daughter's face again and said with a smile:
"You're still a virgin, right? That's good. I've heard that people in the East value this a lot."
Upon hearing this, Teresa was visibly stunned, and said incredulously, "Mother, you mean you want me to..."
"That's right!"
Ms. Maria gazed at the corpses strewn across the ground and said coldly:
"In this country, anyone with drug-related tendencies will die a violent death! In the last election, 88 candidates were shot dead in the street, and the daughter of a member of parliament was gang-raped..."
"Teresa, I need this young man! I want to run for president under his protection!"
Maria pulled her daughter's shoulders, forcing her to look directly at her.
"Help me! Help the countless people abused by drug lords! Justice is immortal!"
This was the first time Teresa had seen her mother so excited and serious. She nervously bit her lip and stammered:
"I'm willing to help you... but Lu Li has a girlfriend..."
"It's alright, men don't mind having another lover, especially a beautiful one."
Maria tidied her daughter's hair, but a strong gust of wind tore it up the next second... A Black Hawk helicopter was flying overhead!
The helicopter landed on an open area in the factory, and eight fully armed soldiers stepped out.
They were wearing masks, so their faces were not visible. They approached and saluted:
"Ms. Maria, we have been ordered to protect you!"
"Thank you for your hard work. Please convey my respects to Colonel [Garcia]."
At this moment, Maria and Teresa finally breathed a sigh of relief.
These soldiers are from the "Marine Corps".
Compared to the army and police, the navy is particularly difficult to penetrate at sea.
Moreover, their families all live in heavily protected military areas, so they don't have to worry about being threatened by drug lords.
In short, this is a reliable armed force, and it seems to be the only one.
