Bai Xiaoyun froze for a moment. She wasn't mistaken. There had indeed been someone on the rooftop just now.
Although the person had now moved out of her perception and was running in another direction, if she nodded, that person would surely be caught by Zhou Mang and the others.
Should she say it or not?
At this moment, Bai Xiaoyun was extremely conflicted. She clenched her fists tightly, and a trace of struggle flashed in her eyes.
"Why should that person be able to escape while I'm caught and controlled? These people are all perverts. If they can't find anyone, they'll definitely use me as a punching bag to torture me."
Thinking of her deceased brother, her tragic experiences, and a future with no glimmer of hope, Bai Xiaoyun's eyes turned red, and the last bit of hesitation in her heart vanished.
After a moment, Bai Xiaoyun opened her eyes and slowly nodded.
"There's someone, on... on the rooftop."
She trembled as she spoke, revealing the person's whereabouts.
"What? Say that again?"
Hearing this, Zhou Mang suddenly lunged forward, grabbing Bai Xiaoyun's collar. His eyes widened like bronze bells, and his expression was as if he wanted to devour the delicate woman in front of him alive.
"On... on the rooftop, there's a person!"
With her feet forced off the ground, Bai Xiaoyun was terrified, and her voice even changed pitch.
"Brother Mang, calm down, Brother Mang!"
At this moment, Zhou Mang's wrist was firmly grasped by a hand with a metallic sheen.
The person who grabbed him was Lao Qian. At this critical moment, only Lao Qian dared to step forward and persuade Zhou Mang.
"Now that we've found the murderer, let's go catch him. Then, Brother Mang, you can deal with him however you want!"
Lao Qian's real name was Qian Mao, the metal - type superpower user that Bao Hui had mentioned. Seeing that Bai Xiaoyun was almost scared unconscious, he quickly stepped forward to dissuade Zhou Mang.Qian Mao despised Zhou Mang's temper, which was like that of a rabid dog biting everyone randomly. However, since his strength was inferior, he could only choose to appease the other party in a gentle voice.
What's more, on the surface, Bai Xiaoyun was still his woman.
Thinking of how some of the others lusted after Bai Xiaoyun, a hint of darkness flashed in Qian Mao's eyes.
"Brother Mang, don't be hasty. Even if the brat can run away, he can't escape the temple. With so many of us and Xiaoyun here, are we still afraid we can't find him?"
"That's right. There are so many zombies outside. I don't believe he'd dare to run out alone. As long as he's still around, we'll surely catch him!"
At this time, the people around immediately reacted and stepped forward to persuade him one after another.
"Brother Mang, don't worry. Huizi is also like a younger brother to me. We'll definitely avenge him!" Qian Mao vowed.
With everyone's kind persuasion and Qian Mao offering a timely way out, the anger in Zhou Mang's heart was barely suppressed.
He slowly let go of his hand and flung Bai Xiaoyun to the ground.
Bai Xiaoyun was filled with fear. She knew clearly that if her superpower wasn't useful to them, she would probably have died countless times already.
"Let's go!"
Zhou Mang clenched his fists, waved his hand, and strode forward.The others quickly followed suit. Bai Xiaoyun silently got up, not bothering to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, and staggered along at the back.
At this time, Lin Qingqing on the rooftop had already run down to the tenth floor through the passage at the other end. She didn't know that she had been discovered and was looking for a place to lie low for a while. She planned to return to her attic after these people left.
Zhou Mang and the others came down by elevator. As soon as they went out, they saw a gray figure flash past the corner of the building.
"There! That's the person!"
Bai Xiaoyun gasped, pointing at Lin Qingqing shakily.
Without her saying anything, several people with sharp eyes had already spotted the suspicious figure. But looking at the back, it turned out to be a woman.
This discovery immediately excited Zhou Mang and the others.
Bai Xiaoyun belonged to Lao Qian and her superpower was very useful. Although they were covetous, they still had to consider Lao Qian's feelings.
As for the other women in the community, they were not picky. However, that was only done secretly. They didn't dare to make too much of a scene on the surface. After all, Zhou Mang still wanted to use these residents to lord it over and needed to maintain a certain "reputation".
But if it was an enemy, no one would say anything no matter what they did, right?With that little evil thought in their hearts, everyone was eager to act, each wanting to be the first to catch her. Their eagerness was even higher than that of Zhou Mang himself.
Bai Xiaoyun had shouted very loudly before, and Lin Qingqing heard it immediately.
Alarm bells rang in her heart. Without thinking about how she had been discovered, she could only bury her head and run for her life.
There were quite a few trees, flowers, and plants in the community. Even in winter in the south, the plants were still green, which provided great help for Lin Qingqing's escape.
She ran wildly, the howling wind blowing past her ears. Behind her were seven or eight burly men chasing her, trying to surround her while cursing.
"You slut, stop right there!"
Hearing Zhou Mang's angry voice from behind, Lin Qingqing's heart skipped a beat, and she ran even more desperately.
After nearly a month of recuperation, her body had just improved a little. At this moment, she felt that her lungs were like an old, wheezing bellows,隐隐作痛.
As for the zombies, she couldn't care less. Fortunately, they moved slowly, and as long as she didn't get surrounded, she wouldn't be in danger.
She knew that her physical strength couldn't compare with that of Zhou Mang and the others chasing her, so she had to get rid of them as soon as possible.
Just as Lin Qingqing was thinking about how to shake off the pursuers behind her, her heart suddenly skipped a beat.There was no time to hesitate. Acting on instinct, she abruptly tilted her head. Almost at the same moment she made the move, a ball of flame the size of a ping - pong ball flew past her head.
The pungent smell of burning hair reminded her that this was a real flame that could harm her.
At that moment, she understood that this was probably the "Fireball Technique" the little thief had mentioned before. He wasn't lying. Zhou Mang could really launch his superpower in the form of flames.
Sensing the danger of the fireball behind her, Lin Qingqing started deliberately running towards places with thick vegetation.
Seeing someone trying to cut her off ahead, she suddenly changed direction,翻过 a low - lying bush, crossed the pavilion behind the bush, and then, following a flower corridor with a turn, passed directly through the fitness area and rushed into another building.
Going upstairs would be a dead - end, so she definitely couldn't do that. Her target was the parking lot on the basement floor.
"Where the hell is that slut?"
Zhou Mang turned the corner of the flower corridor and found that their target had disappeared. He couldn't help but curse loudly.
The faces of Qian Mao and the others following behind were also rather gloomy. At the end of this flower corridor was a small patch of flower trees over a person's height, with many bamboos planted around.
There were two buildings facing each other in the distance, and several quiet paths led in all directions.
Zhou Mang had limited men with him this time and couldn't send people to search every path. He could only stand there, fuming with anger."Where's Bai Xiaoyun? Bring that bitch to me!"
As soon as the words were out, two men dragged the staggering Bai Xiaoyun and threw her at Zhou Mang's feet.
Her physical strength was really poor. She had been dragged along while running. Now, she was瘫软 on the ground, looking as if she had been fished out of water. She couldn't even say a complete sentence.
Looking at her半死不活 appearance, Zhou Mang was so angry that he wanted to kick her to death, but he still had to consider Lao Qian's feelings.
"Search! Find that slut for me!"
Zhou Mang's shout made Bai Xiaoyun tremble. She didn't dare to look at Zhou Mang's face. With her head lowered, she released her superpower to sense.
This process took more than ten seconds. Just when Zhou Mang's patience was about to run out, she finally raised her arm and, with trembling fingers, pointed to a building on the right and said, "She... she went in there!"
"Damn it, do you dare to fool me!"
Zhou Mang didn't believe that Bai Xiaoyun didn't know the exact location.
Seeing that a fist as big as a sandbag was about to come down, Bai Xiaoyun instinctively hugged her head and curled up into a ball, then quickly said,
"I didn't finish just now. She's on the basement floor! She's on the basement floor! Don't hit me!"Zhou Mang's fist was stopped by Qian Mao again. Qian Mao stared at him with a gloomy face and said, "Brother Mang, catching the person is the priority!"
"Hmph! This is the second time!"
Zhou Mang snorted coldly, giving Qian Mao an unhappy look. Then he said to the others, "Take this bitch with us. First, catch that slut!"
Seeing that the other party listened to his advice, Qian Mao heaved a sigh of relief. He turned around and, together with another person, lifted Bai Xiaoyun from the ground and followed into the unit door.
Looking at Bai Xiaoyun's dazed appearance, Qian Mao whispered a warning to her, "Don't think about playing any tricks. If there's a next time, no one can save you. I'll deal with you when we get back!"
Hearing the devil - like voice in her ear, Bai Xiaoyun trembled and subconsciously nodded.
