Chapter 995: Feng Zi’s Travel Bag
Chapter 995: Feng Zi’s Travel Bag
As Zhang Heng stood guard for Feng Zi in the car, he simultaneously looked out for any suspicious people behind the factory. Ten minutes later, Feng Zi carried a big travel bag and walked toward the iron fence.
“Why are you looking at me? Come and give me a hand!”
Feng Zi waved at Zhang Heng. She then lifted the travel bag with all her strength and threw it over the iron fence. After that, she quickly climbed over it.
Zhang Heng then walked out of the car and lifted the travel bag that Feng Zi tossed over the fence. The moment he lifted the bag, his entire body was drawn towards the ground. It must’ve weighed at least twenty to thirty kilograms. No wonder Feng Zi was sweating profusely.
After that, Zhang Heng put the travel bag in the back seat. By that time, Feng Zi had already climbed over the iron fence and had landed on the ground. She then wiped away her sweat with her Lolita dress.
“What’s in it?”
“The handheld computer you wanted. And the rest of it is small things that I made and repaired during my break. I used all kinds of scrap electrical parts as material for those items.”
Feng Zi got into the car, opened the travel bag, and took out a radio and a round coin before throwing it to Zhang Heng.
“This bug has a range of fifty meters.”
Then, Feng Zi took out a palm-sized metal box. “This smoke generator can be used as a smoke bomb. It takes a while for the smoke to generate. This device has a built-in battery and doesn’t have to be connected to a power source.
“And this is a heat inducer device. I made it from scratch too. When you drop it hard, a human-shaped balloon will pop up with hot air.”

Feng Zi then took out a coke can from her bag.
“I have a laser gun too. I added a magnifying glass to an industrial laser cutting gun to amplify its power. However, I can’t give it to you. I need it to defend myself…”
One by one, Feng Zi took out the things in the travel bag, explaining their functions enthusiastically.
Initially, Zhang Heng did not care much about Feng Zi’s return to the factory to grab her stuff. He simply needed the opportunity to ask her to bring him a handheld computer. However, when Feng Zi opened the travel bag, he had to admit that most things in the bag intrigued him a lot.
“So, you invent all these creations whenever you have nothing better to do?”
“Yes, I told you I’ve been waiting for an adventure. Of course, I have to be prepared,” Feng Zi said. “If you give me more time, I can even make you an exoskeleton.”
“I don’t doubt it.”
Zhang Heng started the car, glanced around, and stepped on the gas the moment he confirmed there weren’t any suspicious people around. “Let’s go. The show has just begun. Next, we have to step down to let other actors perform.”
…
In order to ensure the success of this transaction, Mr. G had sent a total of ten couriers to do the job. Since nine of them were there to confuse Shengtang Morgan Group, only one courier would be responsible for the transaction.
Although the emergency response team had received the news in advance from the mole and had their sights on Zhang Heng, he, as leader of Team Zero, would never place all his bets on one side. So, he planned to take out all ten couriers in one fell swoop.
This chapter is scrapped from readlightnovel.org
By doing that, he could prevent all unwanted accidents. He also had lots of confidence in his team. Admittedly, though, he still underestimated Zhang Heng. The mole had greatly exaggerated Zhang Heng’s combat skills, causing No.6 to be asked to masquerade as the trader. She was supposed to paralyze him, drag Zhang Heng out of the bar, and attempt to hold him until her ally joined her in killing Zhang Heng together.

However, little did he expect that No.6 would fail to leave the bar. In the end, Zhang Heng exposed her and sent her to her maker. After that, 0 made another mistake by sending No.9 to track Zhang Heng’s whereabouts. Unfortunately, No.9 disappeared as well.
Fortunately, judging from the photos sent by No.7 and No.5, there was a high probability that No.9 was still alive. Currently, he was being held hostage by Zhang Heng.
To be honest, Zhang Heng’s move surprised 0. It was because e showed no mercy when he killed No.6. Clearly, Zhang Heng was not affected by the fact that No.6 was a female. The knife wound on her throat also indicated his resolve. In the subsequent battle at the school, however, Zhang Heng behaved differently. Risking getting shot, he approached No.9 just to capture him. The change in attitude puzzled 0 a little. Then, when he thought of the email that he intercepted earlier, something came to his mind.
In the end, he ordered No.7 and No.5 to stop investigating the disappearance of No.9 and deal with other couriers first.
With help of the union’s powerful influence, they managed to locate and kill five couriers in less than half an hour. Those five couriers were pretty good but way weaker than Zhang Heng. None would defeat the emergency response team members if they had a one-versus-one battle.
In the end, four were killed, and one was severely wounded. After being tortured, the ailing courier did not live long as well. Although they still failed to get their hands on their targeted item, the emergency response team had temporarily sealed off the central shuttle station on the second level. Therefore, 0 believed that it was only a matter of time before the real courier would be caught.
On the other side, Zhang Heng had found a temporarily unoccupied apartment with Feng Zi’s help. They decided to use it as a safe house. The apartment belonged to her ex-colleagues boyfriend, and since the latter now worked on the third level, he would only return on Wednesday and Friday. Considering he wasn’t here today, and that Feng Zi and her colleague used to come here for hot pot, she decided to borrow this place temporarily.
Feng Zi looked around and confirmed that there was no one around. She then took out something like a barcode scanner and swept it across the apartment’s door. The next second, the doors on both sides of the apartment opened automatically.
After that, Zhang Heng made the tranquilized baseball-capped boy look like a drunkard, carried him, and walked into the apartment with Feng Zi. The three rode the elevator to the 11th floor. Feng Zi did the same and opened room 1105.
Finally, it was a little safer for them. She closed the door and turned on the light while Zhang Heng put the boy on the carpet and checked the rope he tied on him. Before Feng Zi could say anything, Zhang Heng suddenly spoke up.
“Pretending to be unconscious is useless. I know you’ve gone through drug-resistance training. The stun round is supposed to put ordinary people to sleep for at least four hours. However, its effects last approximately only an hour for you. If you want to wait for the right time to retaliate, it’s entirely up to you. Since you don’t want to communicate, I will seal your mouth with glue.”

Carus - Libertas
participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge and also having a go at NaNoWriMo this November. This was a first draft published as it was written for Nanowrimo November 2020. A little rough around the edges, I hope to come back and edit at some point, and then continue the story on. In the grand scheme of things Elias was nothing special. Which was why he was surprised by a random company on a new colony planet buying out his contract. That was the problem with the large companies that ruled the colonies, once they owned your contract, they owned you. Imagine the greater surprise when he learnt that the new company held the promise of freedom. Not from the constant battle against the Swarm that were also trying to claim the colony planets for their own. Nor from the Crust, the mysterious substance that covered the same planets and held the resources they all fought for. No, the freedom from being oppressed by those with more power and to finally decide where to go and where to set down roots and call home.
