Wasteland Commander

Chapter 298: Experiencing Life


When being thrown out of the window, Ye Fan thought of many things.

In this black-on-black situation, he could actually use the army's power to quickly resolve it, but that would be no fun.

Now, as he fell into the Seven-Star River, he could also let Xiaoba come to catch him; Xiaoba was actually underwater, octopedally on the ground, lurking along the riverbed, ready to follow his orders at any time.

But he suddenly didn't want to do that; it's just falling into the water, it doesn't matter.

He also wanted to know, who was it that just pulled him?

Although he was off guard at the time, the pull wasn't weak at all.

He swiftly put away the cloak, then holding the box, freely fell into the Seven-Star River.

As for his four men, they all landed on the street.

Ye Fan had already ordered them to hide and await his command.

Splash!

After Ye Fan fell into the water, he immediately felt an explosion above his head.

A rocket exploded on the fifth floor, and the surroundings became instantly chaotic; the human voices roared, and red light spread overhead.

Ye Fan entered the water, still unsure of what to do next, when another person jumped in after him.

This person, upon arrival, grabbed Ye Fan's hand, pulling him underwater.

Once submerged, the person clung close, one arm around Ye Fan's waist, while the other hand paddled quickly, swimming swiftly forward underwater.

The speed was quite extraordinary, swimming with a grown man underwater as if like a fish; Ye Fan, being pulled along, looked up at the shimmering water surface and the neon lights rapidly sweeping by overhead, feeling it was not much slower than Xiaoba.

With the aid of the neon light, he also saw clearly who this person was.

It turned out to be the beautiful woman who was just used as a trading commodity inside.

Not only was she unharmed, but she was extremely agile; in just over ten seconds, they had dived quite a distance away.

Ye Fan was truly surprised, thinking he must have misjudged; this woman was definitely a mutant, probably..... should be the peak of Level 2. She might have a way to hide her mutant aura, making even Ye Fan unable to detect it immediately.

Whoa~~~!

Ye Fan was suddenly pulled by her, surfacing close to the riverbank.

This was a turning corner of the river course, with trees along the bank and water plants at the river's edge, so when they raised their heads, it was hard for anyone outside to spot them.

The woman's long hair stuck to her face, her eyebrows slightly furrowed in tension as she looked at Ye Fan: "Are you okay? Still alive? Can you hold on?"

Seeing the woman's charming face before him, Ye Fan suddenly realized, she thought he was injured.

Right, before jumping, he had been shot multiple times, it might have been then; she must have thought he was injured.

Ye Fan immediately felt he should have the awareness of a wounded person.

He then leaned weakly against the beauty's shoulder: "I..... I'm a mutant with skin hardening, no external wounds, but... the inside is very painful."

The beauty was somewhat anxious, yet she still comforted Ye Fan: "I know skin hardening, it normally should withstand bullets, but judging by your condition, your skin hardening is not pure, now you should have internal injuries, hold on a bit longer, we can't surface for now, once it's quiet here, I'll take you to see a doctor."

By this time, the sound of sirens had already started ringing onshore.

Officers from the Dawn Police Station arrived incredibly fast; several cars had already pulled up at the entrance of the Wolf Race clubhouse.

A large number of officers disembarked, sealing off the surroundings.

Ye Fan, from his vantage point, could faintly see Zhou Guang furiously arguing with the officers.

"Someone has launched an attack on my clubhouse! We've checked the circuits, they were cut! There's no doubt it was done by Jiangnan Female Classmate's people!"

"And that Rose Thorn, where did this squad come from? They've ransacked ten thousand Light Yuan from my clubhouse and killed several of our mutants! They even used a rocket launcher to bomb our fifth floor; our losses are huge, these two squads must be immediately wanted!"

The leading officer was still that Captain Zhang, who also said indignantly: "Rest assured, Captain Zhou, these two squads are heinously criminal, we absolutely won't let them escape, I'll issue a wanted order right now, they couldn't have left Dawn City in such a short time."

"Good! Immediately wanted! My surveillance footage here can retrieve their facial features, make sure they don't escape the city."

"Captain Zhou, don't worry about that, I've already notified the garrison, regardless of which city gate they try to exit, they'll be discovered by our Dawn Army's dogs and soldiers, which countless precedents have proven."

Zhou Guang gritted his teeth fiercely: "Captain Zhang, relying solely on your police station isn't enough; Dawn City is too vast, they can hide anywhere and be hard to find; I also need to post a mission at the Adventurer's Guild."

"OK, that's your freedom, our police station won't interfere."

Zhou Guang seemed genuinely furious, taking out a walkie-talkie on the spot to issue a mission at the Adventurer's Guild.

"This is Zhou Guang from the Star Night Wolf Pack, now issuing a bounty on two Adventurer Squads! One is Jiangnan Female Classmate, the other is Rose Thorn, they are in Dawn City now, and the police have already issued a wanted order. Whoever has information about these two squads and provides clues, I will reward with ten thousand Light Yuan!"

"Additionally, I provide one lead, two people were seen jumping into the Seven-Star River among them, everyone can prioritize searching there."

For a non-adventuring task, a reward of ten thousand Light Yuan is extremely high.

The adventurer channel erupted with noise; everyone thought these two squads absolutely wouldn't escape.

With the police pursuit, anyone who hadn't left Dawn City found it hard to leave.

No matter how big Dawn City was, once everyone knew, it was almost impossible for fugitives to escape.

Without a doubt, these two squads likely wouldn't last through the night; getting caught was only a matter of time.

It depended on who would be lucky enough to claim this ten thousand Light Yuan bounty.

Many adventurers had already begun taking action, with numerous individuals heading towards the Seven-Star River banks in the Inner City District, hoping to find some gain.

Even now, there were people starting to move by the riverbank.

......

Ye Fan was in the water, leaning against the wall, semi-relying on the girl, listening to this segment of the conversation.

Ye Fan himself didn't mind much. After all, he was here to experience life. Being wanted by his own police station sounded quite fun.

On the contrary, the girl by his side looked slightly concerned.

She cast a complex glance at Ye Fan: "Chen Bufan, is your name Chen Bufan?"

"Yes, that's right."

"Now listen to me, if you want to live, if you don't want to be caught, you must listen to me from now on, otherwise I won't care about you anymore. I can leave by myself entirely."

Ye Fan nodded immediately: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

"There are already officers searching along the shore and it won't take long before they reach our location. Next, I'll take you diving through the Inner City at once, only surfacing to breathe once. This can effectively avoid personnel and military dog tracking. Once we're in the Outer City, we'll find a chance to come ashore. Can you hold on?"

Ye Fan thought for a moment: "There is a Water Gate separating the Inner and Outer Cities, can you dive past the Water Gate?"

"Yes, the Water Gate is five meters under the water, we'll just dive deeper than that and we'll get past it."

Ye Fan curiously asked: "Since that's the case, why don't you just dive out of the Outer City and simply leave Dawn City?"

The beauty gently shook her head: "No, I still have things to do here, I can't leave until I've finished them."

Ye Fan stopped asking upon hearing this: "Alright, I'll listen to you."

"Good, hold on tight, we're leaving now. Once we're in the Outer City, I'll find someone to treat you."

Having said that, the beauty again took Ye Fan into the water.

This time she held Ye Fan's hand with one hand, both their hands clasped tightly, and began diving underwater.

Ye Fan had one hand dragging the stolen briefcase, while the other gripped the girl's delicate, small hand, feeling as if holding a piece of cool jade, the sensation truly magical.

He wasn't hurt at all, but didn't want to appear too relaxed, letting the girl take the lead with her strength, quickly advancing underwater.

The two progressed five to six meters deep underwater, gradually nearing the wall separating the Inner City District from the Outer City District.

When they were about a hundred meters from the wall, the two surfaced to breathe once.

The beauty softly said to Ye Fan: "I've observed the patrol patterns of the guards on the wall. There's one patrol every ten minutes, and the watchtower searchlights sweep every three minutes. Now that the police station's warrant has been issued, it might be stricter, let's see how our luck fares today?"

Saying this, she also sighed: "I hope our luck is good. Unless absolutely necessary, I really don't want to clash with any member of the Dawn Army. This troop is too terrifying....."

Ye Fan glanced at the guard on the wall, slightly curling his lips.

About a minute later...

The diligent sentry stretched lazily and ran to a corner to smoke.

The girl beside him was delighted: "Great! I didn't expect the Dawn Army to have slackers, let's go!"

Saying this, she again took Ye Fan into the water, diving directly through the Water Gate separating the Inner and Outer Cities.

This time, they dove about five to six hundred meters underwater before surfacing.

Upon emerging, the light around was dim.

The construction progress in the Outer City District was not as advanced as in the Inner City District, there weren't as many entertainment venues or neon signs, and the population density wasn't as high as it was in the Inner City District.

"Let's get ashore at the fork ahead."

The girl held Ye Fan's hand, swiftly heading to the shore with a glance to ensure no one was around.

Reaching the shallow water, the girl finally noticed the suitcase Ye Fan held, her expression changed slightly unpleasant.

"When on the fifth floor, you first grabbed that ten thousand yuan before you remembered to save me, right."

Ye Fan nodded a bit sheepishly: "We just met, if there's a next time, I'd choose to save you first for anything less than thirty thousand."

The girl took a deep breath, calming her mood: "Well, count yourself honest, so over the next few days, I'll give you twenty thousand Light Yuan daily, consider it hiring you to help me do things, okay?"

Ye Fan immediately patted his chest: "No problem, I'll do anything."

"Alright, then take off your outerwear for me, I'm having a hard time getting ashore."

Ye Fan only then noticed the girl was still crouching in the water, a pale yellow sweater clinging wetly against her, the shimmering light even revealing several torn spots on it, unsure if damaged during a fight or scratched while swimming, exposing several patches of fair skin.

Seeing Ye Fan looking over, the girl shrank further into the water, "Hurry up, this sweater can't be worn anymore, I need to change into your clothes."

"Alright, alright, I'll take them off."

"Turn around, take them off and hand them to me."

The girl watched Ye Fan warily, seeing him turn his back to remove his clothes, finally relaxing a bit, removing the soaked sweater and casually discarded it into the water.

After getting rid of the damaged sweater, she prepared to take Ye Fan's men's casual wear.

Ye Fan took a deep breath, turning his back to the girl to hand over the clothes.

The girl grasped the corner of the clothing, just ready to pull it back when suddenly, something in the deep water unexpectedly grabbed the clothes and yanked hard!

Startled, the girl pulled forcefully back!

But what happened next was almost beyond belief!

With her strength, she couldn't overcome the force from within the deep water, and it snatched the clothes away!
