Chapter 69
The other men were initially hesitant about speaking up.0
But Yun Xiaoxiao added another sentence.0
"If you don't talk about him, you might end up being accused instead. You could very well be the ones to die. You only have one chance, and whether you can survive depends on you."0
This was actually the simplest way to sow discord.0
If these men could be a bit more united and not badmouth each other, they might actually have a chance to survive.0
But...0
Human nature, sometimes it's just that fickle.0
As soon as Yun Xiaoxiao said this, the men began to speak up one after another, trying to outdo each other.0
"I know, let me tell you! When the zombie virus first broke out, he killed several police officers who were guarding us!"0
"When he went out to search for supplies, there was a woman who refused to come with us no matter what. He forcibly took her and killed her grandmother."0
"......"0
"You're all talking nonsense, I didn't do any of that!" the man exclaimed, his eyes blazing with fury.0
But from his panicked and evasive gaze, it was clear that what the others were saying was true.0
"Who's talking nonsense? Everyone already knows about your dirty deeds."0
"Hmm, very good. That's eight counts so far. Does anyone else have anything to add?" Yun Xiaoxiao picked up a small stone and drew the number eight on the ground.0
Seeing no one else had anything to add, she pointed to another man.0
"Alright, it's your turn."0
The man who had just been accused, harboring resentment, immediately jumped in to speak.0
"When we were out looking for supplies, there were people on the road begging for help. Not only did he not save them, but he deliberately ran them over with the car, killing them.0
Those two died horribly, their bodies broken into several pieces, ground into a bloody pulp.0
And there's more..."0
And so it went on, with this group of people tearing each other apart like dogs, no one sparing anyone else.0
They were afraid that if they didn't reveal enough of others' misdeeds, they might end up being the one to die.0
Truth and lies, lies and truth, but none of them were innocent in the end.0
Yun Xiaoxiao listened with glee.0
Nie Yizhou, on the other hand, was regretting his earlier moment of kindness so much that his insides felt like they were turning blue.0
Thank goodness he hadn't let these people go!0
These people were nothing short of beasts!0
If they had been released, it would have been like letting hungry wolves back into a flock of sheep.0
Who knows how many innocent people they would have harmed then.0
From the snippets of conversation among this group, it became clear that most of the guards in this abandoned prison had originally escaped from another prison with Jiang Mintao during the chaos.0
They had killed many police officers in the turmoil and stolen all the guns and ammunition from the police station.0
Afterward, they went around pillaging supplies and kidnapping attractive men and women.0
For them, the apocalypse wasn't hell, but a earthly paradise where they could do whatever they wanted without any restraint.0
If such people weren't killed, were they supposed to be kept around for the New Year's celebration?0
Yun Xiaoxiao pulled out her gun and aimed it at the leader of the men.0
"I only have eight counts against me. Isn't that the least? Didn't we agree earlier that the person with the fewest offenses could live?"0
The man immediately became anxious.0
Because there was only one chance to add information, the first person actually ended up being accused of the fewest crimes.0
In contrast, the later speakers, having already offended the others, were accused of more.0
Yun Xiaoxiao shook her little finger, "Uncle, you've remembered it wrong. It's not that the person with the fewest crimes gets to live, it's the person who hasn't done anything bad that gets to live.0
But unfortunately, you've all done bad things."0
The corner of her lips curled up, her smile full of mischief.0
"So, you all have to die~"0
She said the last sentence with some excitement.0
It seemed she could hardly wait to pull the trigger.0
Just as she was about to squeeze the trigger, Lu Chen pressed down on her gun.0
"Little one, don't stain your hands with too much blood. I'll handle this."0
With that, his brow unwavering, he swiftly took action, shooting and killing everyone one by one.0
His speed was astonishing!0
Those people didn't even have time to cry out before they all fell to the ground.0
"By the way, where's Xiao Feng?" Nie Yizhou looked around, noticing someone was missing.0
"I'm here." Xiao Feng walked out from a corner.0
"I saw two people climbing over the wall to escape earlier, so I chased after them. Turns out they were ability users, one wind system and one strength system."0
"So where are they now?" Nie Yizhou asked.0
Xiao Feng clutched his arm, "Dead."0
"You're injured?" Yun Xiaoxiao noticed his unusual behavior.0
Xiao Feng raised an eyebrow, "It's nothing, just a small wound. I won't die from this."0
Those two ability users were quite formidable. One of them managed to release wind blades even after being shot, catching him off guard and cutting him.0
Yun Xiaoxiao took out some medicine and bandages from her small backpack.0
"Brother Yizhou, can you help treat his wound?"0
"I don't need his help, I can do it myself."0
"Tch, as if anyone wants to help you."0
"......"0
After Xiao Feng had bandaged his wound, the four of them gathered together.0
"What should we do next? Stay here or go somewhere else?" Nie Yizhou looked at the other three.0
"This place looks pretty safe, but to be honest, living here would be quite unsettling," he expressed his thoughts.0
Xiao Feng furrowed his brows, "I certainly don't want to live in a prison."0
Lu Chen stood to the side with his arms crossed, looking cold and detached.0
"I'll follow Xiaoxiao's decision."0
Xiaoxiao had been reborn, so she surely knew where it would be best to go.0
So following her lead wouldn't be a problem.0
Of course, he would never tell the others about her rebirth.0
"That's right, little one. You're the youngest here, so wherever you say we should go, we big brothers will follow you."0
"I have no objections."0
All three of them turned their gaze to Yun Xiaoxiao.0
Touched by their unconditional trust, Yun Xiaoxiao felt a warmth in her heart.0
But she deliberately pursed her lips and said, "What if I lead you into a horde of zombies?"0
She said, half-jokingly and half-seriously.0
"What's there to be afraid of? If we charge, we charge," Nie Yizhou said nonchalantly, raising the corner of his mouth.0
But he never expected that his casual words would come true, and Yun Xiaoxiao really did lead them to charge into a zombie horde!0
At a high-end residential complex in Rong City.0
Four figures stood tall on top of the main gate of the complex.0
"I've realized, I'm just your mode of transportation!" Nie Yizhou complained, rolling his eyes.0
Xiao Feng glanced at him, "Well, it seems you have a clear understanding of your role."0
Nie Yizhou really wanted to go over and punch this sharp-tongued guy.0
But just then, he saw the zombies wandering around inside the residential complex.0
At a glance, just in the large fountain square in front of them, there were conservatively estimated to be five or six hundred zombies.0
Old and young, men and women, they were all there.0
Some were wearing pajamas, some were barefoot, some had messy hair.0
It was clear they had fled from their homes in a panic.0
Of course, there were also those wearing security guard uniforms and cleaning staff uniforms.0
They were densely packed, moving in groups.0
Hearing the noise from their direction, all the zombies turned their heads towards the four of them in unison.0
It was like a giant stone had been thrown into calm waters, causing an immediate uproar.0
All the zombies opened their mouths wide, howling madly as they charged towards them.0
"Damn it, kid, are we really going to kill all the zombies in here? Isn't this... too crazy?!"0
