nShao Feng was surrounded by those people. Although he was holding a gun, there was no way he could shoot. Hence, the whole group followed him outside. That middle-aged woman held the child firmly, and they stood in front of the crowd.
n
"As I've said, I can't take you back to Star City Base. Go back! If you get closer to me again, I will shoot!
" Shao Feng aimed at those people and warned loudly.
nThe middle-aged woman seemed shocked. She hesitated for a moment and pinched the child.
n
"Wah-
" That child cried immediately.
n
"What about us? The State should have rescued us…
" someone said from the crowd.
nAfter that, suddenly many people were annoyed.
n
"Yes, he's right. Why you are you aiming at us?
"
n
"We have been waiting here all this time!
"
n
"What mission do you have? Is your mission more important than saving people?
"
nJiang Liushi stood silently behind and enjoyed the show. He felt that the group of survivors was acting strangely. They did not seem excited when they reached a compromise, and instead, it was obvious that they acted according to circumstances.
nShao Feng, after all, was a soldier, so being surrounded by so many women and children, he didn't know how to deal with them.
n
"We still have our mission...
"
nThe survivors noticed his hesitation, and they were no longer intimidated by the firearms. Thus, they moved toward him quickly.
nBefore doomsday, some ordinary people did not fear the military. Jiang Liushi had heard and read many reports of ordinary people hitting armed police officers and military personnel, as they knew they wouldn't strike back. Jiang Liushi felt speechless with incidents like that.
n
"Bang!
"
nA gunshot sounded, and those people suddenly stopped.
nThey looked around and saw a 20-year-old young man, dressed in casual clothes, holding a pistol, and its muzzle was still smoking. The young man stood in a casual manner, and beside him were some beautiful girls.
nShao Feng quickly took a few steps back, and said to Jiang Liushi,
"Captain Jiang, these people are the town's residents, and they asked us to take them back to the safety area.
"
nJiang Liushi nodded and looked at those people:
"I have one question. Who hurt that soldier?
"
nThe crowd suddenly froze, and then they looked at each other.
nThe middle-aged woman, holding the child, boldly said,
"At first glance, we thought it was a zombie, so we take the initiative to act.
"
n
"Was it you?
" Jiang Liushi asked, and aimed the gun at the middle-aged woman.
nShe was scared and shouted,
"Not me.
"
n
"Ever since you came out, you never asked about the wounded soldier's situation. You are… Let me ask again, who did it?
"
nThey bowed their heads one by one.
n
"You, come out.
" Jiang Liushi suddenly glanced at one guy.
nThat ordinary-looking man was about 40 years old, and he was covered in dirt. Hearing that Jiang Liushi had called for him, he was surprised. He slowly walked toward Jiang Liushi.
n
"A life for a life,
" Jiang Liushi said, while he was aiming at that man with the gun.
nThis man suddenly looked up incredulously, and the other survivors also revealed astonished expressions.
nAt that moment, the man's eyes suddenly flashed a glint of fierceness, and then he pulled out a concealed knife from his sleeves. He rushed to catch Ran Xiyu, as he felt that if he held her as a hostage, he'd get the upper hand.
nHowever, Ran Xiyu looked calm and quietly looked at that man.
n
"Spirit Puncture!
"
nSuddenly, the man wavered, and he slowed down. Accompanied by a scream, the man's shoulder was then injured, and the knife fell directly to the ground.
n
"Some of you aren't ordinary survivors at all, am I right?
" Jiang Liushi said.
nHe had guessed that those survivors indented to ambush them, but they didn't expect they'd be attacking soldiers. To deal with their current predicament, they used the ordinary survivors to become their shields and fight from the dark. When Jiang Liushi exposed them, they were flabbergasted.
n
"In this world, people can be worse than monsters…terrible…
" Jiang Liushi shook his head. However, he shot immediately without any hesitation.
nAfter the gunshot, a series of screams came from the crowd as warm blood had splashed on most people's faces. They were almost shocked to death. Even Shao Feng, a military officer, felt scared with Jiang Liushi's decisiveness; he didn't even give them a chance to respond.
nAt that time, the remaining survivors felt fear taking over their hearts.
n
"Do not cry, you are also an accomplice,
" Jiang Liushi said while looking at that child.
"I know that you're not a child, so you can drop the act.
"
nThat child was stunned at first, and then his expression became deathly pale. It was true that he was not a child. He was born with a disease, causing defects to his physique and pausing his growth. After doomsday, he disguised himself as a child, taking advantage of his flaws.
nUnfortunately for him, nothing could evade Jiang Liushi and Ran Xiyu's eyes.
n
"Let me ask you. If we brought you back with us at the camp, would we even last the night? Nevermind, I know you'd attack us at night. It's hard to pull it off with your powers… Hmm… Where is your backer, or leader?
" Jiang Liushi asked.
nHe guessed that those people were also victims.

"Oh, he's just like the insane girl from the Orphan!
