◎Devil disguised as an angel◎

Yi Zimei couldn't believe it, so he patted the bag on his body, picked it up and put it close to his ear to listen.

As if getting the response he wanted, he let go of the bag doubtfully, looking as if he was questioning his life.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense. Rong Xiao's appearance was like a weight that destroyed the balance, causing the situation to tilt towards Yan Jue and the others.

"Brother Long, is this okay? It would be best if we could keep him alive so we can capture him and interrogate him." Shangguan Yu made room by the living room window for Long Qingyu to set up his gun. "It's a little difficult to aim at the shoulder strap, and if that doesn't work..."

"Let me try first."

Long Qingyu aimed the scope at Yizhimei's shoulder. The shoulder strap protruded thinly on the shoulder, and he was aiming at this extremely difficult position.

Pulling the trigger, the bullet rushed towards the target accurately from the muzzle, producing almost undetectable sparks at the moment of contact, instantly grinding the shoulder strap into two pieces.

They didn't expect that there were people with guns in the house. Yi Zimei and his men wanted to hold the box, but Yan Jue, who was closest to them, grabbed the broken strap first and threw it towards the house without any hesitation. The box fell obediently at the door.

Nie Fuxi, who was already waiting, rushed out and dragged the things into the house in a flash. Her movements were so fast that they could not be seen clearly.

Yi Zimei was so frightened that his face turned pale. Without waiting for the group of people around him to escape, he ran in the opposite direction.

Their boss fled in panic, and the others were also terrified. It was as if their long-standing protection had been shattered. Even with weapons in their hands, they lost their confidence and ran around in all directions.

Yan Jue's eyes were always fixed on Yi Zimei. He raised his hand calmly and tried. The blade that had fallen to the ground before started to move again. Like a light and nimble bird, it quickly rushed to Yi Zimei's neck and stopped steadily.

The cold feeling almost brushed against my skin, and my hairs could feel the presence of the sharp blade.

With his vitals pressed against him, Yi Mei didn't dare to move and stood frozen in place, sweating profusely.

Just then, the blade moved again, moving slightly towards his neck.

Yi Zimei quickly stepped back, and as he did so, the blade moved forward, forcing him back to Yan Jue little by little.

His neck was pressed against the blade, and behind him was the man who had looked humble and gentle just now.

But Yi Zimei clearly felt that the air pressure on his back was not right. That was definitely not the aura that a friendly person would emit.

The invisible intuition painted an image in his mind that was more like a terrifying demon. No matter how gentle Yan Jue's smile was before, or how kind his tone of voice was, dark blood still flowed in his bones.

Like... a devil disguised as an angel.

"Where do you want to run to? We haven't even sat down to talk yet." Yan Jue sneered and turned around without even looking at Yi Zimei, forcing him to go into the house with a blade floating in the air.

As soon as they entered the house, Long Qingyu and Tian Yichuang tied up Yi Zimei with a tablecloth tied into a rope and threw it on the floor of the living room.

Not long after, Wei Feng and Nie Fuxi came in from the back door. Wei Feng was twisting a "packaged" person with one hand, and Nie Fuxi was ruthlessly dragging a motionless person on the ground.

"Old Wei, take that suitcase and put it in the farthest place first," Yan Jue thought for a moment and emphasized, "Take it to the room at the far end of the corridor on the second floor."

"Okay." Wei Feng, who had just finished taking a shower, was wearing a pink T-shirt with a cute cartoon rabbit pattern on it, which formed a sharp contrast with his tall and cold appearance.

"Who are you?" Ling Xuting brought over a small stool and sat in front of Yi Zimei and the others, almost at the same height as them sitting on the ground.

But the atmosphere didn't feel like torture at all. It was more like kindergarten kids playing games, and the atmosphere wasn't tense at all.

"I..." Yi Zimei was about to speak when another person who was arrested beside him shouted anxiously, "Stop talking nonsense!!!"

"You won't die, of course you can say nothing, but I'm different from you!" Yi Zimei roared almost in tears.

"If we offend those people, we'll be really finished!! Don't say it!!" The man who was shouting anxiously to stop them had a red face. He looked to be in his thirties and had an ordinary appearance. He was the kind of person who would be immediately drowned out if thrown into a crowd.

However, as if to offset his ordinariness, he deliberately grew his hair long and tied it into a ponytail.

While shouting, his eyes were secretly glancing towards a corner, his eyes were very cautious, as if he was afraid of being discovered.

"You seem to know something," Ling Xuting looked at the ponytailed man next to him, his tone surprisingly polite, "If you tell us, we'll let you go at daybreak."

"I don't know, I know nothing." Even though he was tied up like a hairy crab, the ponytailed man seemed to be quite confident, smiling sinisterly and cunningly. "If you have the guts, stab me. Come on! Stab me! I'd love it!"

“Puff.”

White knife goes in, red knife comes out.

The sound of dripping water fell on the floor, and the living room was shrouded in silence.

Rong Xiao squatted beside him, knife in hand, looking at the ponytailed man innocently, and kindly asked for his opinion: "Is one knife enough? Do you need another one?"

There was an innocent and friendly light in her eyes, as if she was not stabbing the other person, but peeling an apple for him.

After taking a cut, you can kindly take another cut. No matter how many cuts you take, your wish will be fulfilled.

The man with the ponytail looked at Rong Xiao in shock, then fell to the ground with his head tilted and didn't move.

"Why isn't he moving?" Rong Xiao nervously turned his head, looking for help from Yan Jue and Long Qingyu, and quickly dropped the knife in his hand. "He said he couldn't get what he wanted... Doesn't this mean 'wanting to get something but can't get it'?"

Everyone understands!

Rong Xiao was not being cruel at all, but was kind enough to fulfill the ponytail man's "wish".

It was he who shouted at them to stab him. Any normal person would know that it was a threat and a provocation, but Rong Xiao was not a normal person. She thought it was his urgent wish that he wanted to fulfill.

She also planned to give him a knife to fulfill his wish, hoping that the man with the ponytail would cooperate a little because of her "kindness".

"Silly boy, even if he wants to do something, you can't be so kind as to help him casually." Yan Jue went to find a clean towel and squatted down to wipe Rong Xiao's hands carefully. "See, your hands are dirty, aren't they?"

"Oh..." Rong Xiao obediently buried her hands in the towel and fiddled around. Yan Jue smiled and spread out the towel, gently pinching her wrist and slowly wiping it with one finger at a time.

Su Ming stood by, hesitant to speak.

Sometimes he suspected that he was not abnormal enough and that was why he could not fit in with the atmosphere around Yan Jue.

Now, with Rong Xiao here, the abnormal atmosphere has been doubled.

"Hey, get up! Why are you pretending to be dead?" Shangguan Huai reached out and poked the ponytailed man lying on the ground, his voice stifling laughter. "Do you think that if you pretend to be dead, we will throw you out so you can take the opportunity to escape?"

Playing dead? ?

The others straightened up and gradually gathered around the man with the ponytail.

Su Ming reached out and poked it, then asked curiously, "But I really stabbed him just now, so it's not impossible that he's dead."

"Let's see if we can save him first," Ling Xuting said, a rare initiative. "If he's really dead, find a place to bury him back there."

"Well, dig deeper. I'll make a coffin later and nail it tightly. I guarantee that even if it mutates, it can't get out." Yan Jue replied seriously.

As soon as he finished speaking, Ling Xi saw the man with the ponytail tremble. Even if he was injured, he was definitely not dead yet.

"We are all kind people. When a person dies, it is like a light goes out. Any hatred will disappear. Let's just bury him properly." After saying this, Ling Xi stood up and said in a hoarse voice that he would go find nails to nail his coffin.

Yan Jue: "No need, I'll use metal spoons and chopsticks or something to nail it down. I guarantee no one can open it, and the mutation won't come out to harm anyone."

Ling Xi: "Okay, okay, let's get started now!"

The ponytailed man still didn't move. Shangguan Yu stretched out his foot and kicked him twice, saying sarcastically, "But he died in vain. What if he turns into a ghost and comes looking for us? I know a way. It's to chop off all his limbs and bury them in different places. That way, even if he turns into a ghost, he won't be able to come looking for us."

"Fuck, turning into a ghost is too scary!" Shangguan Huai cooperated and held his face in fear. "I'd better do as you say. I'm afraid of ghosts, wuwuwu."

"Don't be like this, he's already dead, it's better to leave his body intact." As he said that, Wei Feng squatted down and prepared to move the body away. As soon as his hand grabbed the arm of the man with the ponytail, the man with the ponytail immediately jumped up as if the vibrator was turned on, and his mouth rolled with incoherent howling sounds.

Ling Xuting raised his hand to push away the person who was close to him: "Be careful of the electric shock."

Wei Feng immediately retracted his hand. The man with the ponytail fell to the ground, curled up in pain, with his mouth open but unable to make a sound.

"Old Wei, I didn't expect you to be so sinister!!" Yan Jue laughed out loud.

"No, I really didn't mean it. I'm sorry." Wei Feng, with an apologetic look in his eyes, helped the man with the ponytail up and checked his previous wound. He found that the skin and flesh where the knife wound should have been were fine, without any scar at all.

If there wasn't blood on his clothes, they would have thought Rong Xiao didn't stab him at all.

"I said he was just pretending to be dead," Shangguan Huai said with a smug smile. "I wanted to help heal his wound out of kindness, but when I tried, it turned out he was fine!"

"He has healing abilities?" Su Ming poked the ponytailed man and looked at Shangguan Huai. "You too?"

"My brother has the ability to heal. He..." Shangguan Yu nudged the ponytailed man with his foot, "He should have the ability to heal himself."

Yan Jue clapped his hands happily: "That's great! Since he won't die, there's no need to be careful when interrogating him!"

The ponytailed man, who had finally recovered, trembled: "What do you want to do..."

"Wait a minute, you open the box." Shangguan Yu went to the second floor and took down the small bag that Yi Zimei had been carrying, and placed it in front of the man with the ponytail. "You open it, don't try to be tricky."

"I...I drive?" The man with the ponytail pointed at himself in disbelief.

"You won't die, what are you afraid of! Open it!" Tian Yichuang became impatient and threatened him fiercely.

The man with the ponytail swallowed nervously and slowly unzipped the bag. It was dark inside, but you could see something reflecting light.

"This thing is a bit weird," Yan Jue looked at the fallen blade on the ground, "Once the box comes over, I won't be able to use my supernatural powers."

"Could there be some kind of trap?" Su Ming tried to open the protective shield. After two attempts, it disappeared like a billboard without power. "My supernatural power has really died!"

Shangguan Yu suddenly thought of something and urged the man with the ponytail to open the suitcase quickly in a deliberately cold voice.

Fortunately, after opening it, no hidden weapons or anything flew out, but something in the box vibrated, as if there was a living creature moving inside.

The ponytailed man opened the bag under everyone's urging gaze. Shangguan Yu shone his flashlight over and said casually, "If this thing can make superpowers disappear, you're not invincible now."

The hand holding the bag trembled, and the ponytail man felt a chill on his back. Only then did he realize how big a risk he was taking.

The absolute guarantee that he had always had was no longer effective the moment he hugged the box. Fortunately, there was nothing strange in the box.

The man with the ponytail and the man with the straight eyebrows knew each other but were not very familiar with each other. He also had no idea what was in the man's box.

I just heard from others that the guy's box is amazing and can even be used to deal with people with special abilities.

"Take it out."

Having lost his special powers, and his only self-healing ability was also useless, the ponytailed man didn't dare to provoke them, and obediently took the things out slowly and carefully.

A cage.

A mousetrap with a mouse in it.

However, the mouse's eyes were blood red, there was a festering wound on its skin, and it was extremely irritable in the cage.

Especially when it saw people, it tried its best to rush towards the crowd. Fortunately, the mousetrap was so tight that it couldn't bite people.

The ponytailed man was so frightened that he immediately threw the cage away: "There's something wrong with this mouse!"

"Nonsense," Shangguan Yu squatted down and tapped on it with chopsticks, "It must have been infected and mutated by a virus."

"After an animal mutates, people who get close to it will lose their special abilities?" The violent rat in the cage made Su Ming grimace in disgust. He kept tilting his neck back, but he couldn't resist his curiosity and kept wanting to get closer to take a look.

Shangguan Yu signaled everyone to step aside and put the cage near the back door.

They all stood far off the ground, motionless like statues, and the squeaking of the mousetrap gradually died away.

Shangguan Yu winked at Tian Yichuang. He was stunned for a long time, and finally reacted to Shangguan Yu's disgusted look and tried to light a flame on his index finger.

The flickering flame lit up, and Shangguan Yu asked Tian Yichuang to walk towards the back door.

Tian Yichuang, who was completely confused, held up his finger like a candle. When he was about two meters away, he heard a squeaking sound from the direction of the mouse cage. The cage was constantly making noises due to being hit by the mutant mouse.

The fire on the finger went out.

The man with the ponytail and the man with the straight eyebrows were tied in a corner, secretly winking at each other.

"There should be a sensing distance, about 2-3 meters. Once you enter the sensing distance, you will be affected and your supernatural power will be ineffective." Shangguan Yu gave a simple summary, walked forward and squatted in front of Yi Zimei. His eyes were like sharp knives, making Yi Zimei turn his head away guiltily and dare not look.

He was obviously a young boy, but the aura around him made him feel creepy.

Yizhimei swallowed, did not answer, and looked to the side awkwardly.

"Why does this mouse have such power?"

"I have no idea."

"Do you have the ability to heal yourself?" Shangguan Yu half-knelt. He was tall to begin with, so he only needed to stand up slightly to look down at Yizimei.

Not only Shangguan Yu, but other people driven by curiosity also gathered around, such as the tall and strong Wei Feng, Yan Jue who smiled on the surface but was naughty on the inside, and Rong Xiao who had just poked the man with the ponytail.

None of them were good people. Being surrounded by this group of people, Yi Zimei almost trembled and cried.

"It's not that I don't want to talk about it, I just really don't know. This... this thing was given to me by someone else," Yi Zimei's voice was filled with tears, and he kept shaking his head and kowtowing. "I can't say anything else. If I tell you, I'll die. Please don't ask anymore."

Someone gave it to him?

Could it be that someone raises this kind of rat specifically to deal with people with special abilities?

Shangguan Yu always felt that things were not that simple. Just when he was about to use some more means to force the question, Yan Jue had already done what he wanted to do.

However, Yi Zimei and the others seemed to be really hindered by some more terrifying threat and did not say a word. Even though Yan Jue's threat was realistic and terrifying and the blade cut their skin, everyone was still determined not to say more.

"Okay, they are useless now." Shangguan Yu went to wash his hands, and when he came back he saw Wei Feng dragging all of them to the kitchen.

Yan Jue used his supernatural powers to remove the metal decorations on the stair railings, twisted them into the shape of handcuffs, and bound the wrists and feet of those people.

Finally, Nie Fuxi appeared out of nowhere and took out a few rags from the cupboard, stuffed one into each of their hands, and the world became completely quiet.

"Do we need to change places? Those who escaped before might bring people back." Ling Xuting found Long Qingyu and wanted to discuss what arrangements to make for tonight.

After all, everything that happened that night was something they experienced together. Both teams contributed and cooperated very well.

"No need," Shangguan Yu took over the conversation. "If there really is a terrifying force behind this group of people, then they will have failed their mission tonight, and they will definitely be punished when they return."

"So... this group of people shouldn't have gone back, at least not right away?" Ling Xuting suddenly realized.

"That's my guess. If you're worried, you can try another place. But if we go any further, there might not be another place as suitable for resting."

Ling Xuting agreed with Shangguan Yu's words and decided to stay after thinking about it.

"Are you really okay?" Shangguan Huai followed and quietly asked his younger brother, "You really won't come back to seek revenge on us?"

"If you're scared, don't sleep. Help keep watch."

"Of course I'll help, but... I'm a little tired now." Shangguan Huai yawned loudly and found that Shangguan Yu did not return to the room, but walked towards the basement again. "What are you doing? Aren't you going to sleep?"

Shangguan Yu didn't answer, leaving behind an indifferent back.

Shangguan Huai was already used to this kind of situation. His younger brother didn't like to answer too many questions and often ignored him.

Just before entering the basement, Shangguan Yu suddenly turned around and called out to Tian Yichuan: "Brother Chuan, take that rat out and burn it. Remember, don't open the cage."

"Oh, are you ordering me to do something?" Tian Yichuang, who was originally sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, felt uncomfortable because of his self-righteous tone.

"Whatever. You can keep it for the night."

After saying that, Shangguan Yu ignored Tian Yichuang's angry face and walked into the basement and closed the door.

Tian Yichuang looked at the cage placed at the back door, and after cursing Shangguan Yu in his heart, he still got up obediently to deal with the mouse.

As soon as they got close to that place, the mutant rats would react strongly. Tian Yichuang lit a fire somewhere else in advance, and found newspapers and wine to carry the cage out the back door to destroy the evidence.

As soon as the fire was lit on the mutant rat, the threatening squeaking sound instantly became louder, and the sound made Tian Yichuang feel uneasy.

"Hello, do you need my help?" Nie Fuxi, who was passing by, suddenly appeared and scared Tian Yichuang.

"No… no thanks, I can handle it."

Nie Fuxi didn't leave. She took a knife from the kitchen and squatted at the door with Tian Yichuang until the mouse was burned into a piece of charcoal that would never move again. Then she turned around and went back into the house.

He didn't say a word during the whole process, like a heartless companion robot.

Ling Xi was about to take Rong Xiao upstairs to sleep when she saw Nie Fuxi coming back and asked her to sleep with her in the largest master bedroom upstairs.

Nie Fuxi, who was not used to getting too close to others, wanted to refuse, but Rong Xiao happily jumped in front of her, and she was dragged up by Rong Xiao almost without her realizing it.

There were other rooms on the second floor, which were allocated to the Shangguan Huai brothers and Su Ming who wanted to sleep on a bed.

After a brief discussion, we decided that the situation tonight was special and we would have someone guard both the front and back doors.

After Tian Yichuang dealt with the mutant rats, he heard that there was an empty bed upstairs. Just as he was about to go upstairs to sleep, he ran into Shangguan Yu coming out of the basement.

"Hello," Shangguan Yu ignored Tian Yichuan and walked straight over to Ling Xuting. "Excuse me, could you please help me with something?"

"What help?" Ling Xuting neither agreed nor refused immediately.

"I want Wei Feng...Brother Wei to power the radio."

Ling Xuting looked at Wei Feng, who was lying on the floor, preparing to sleep. "If Wei Feng says it's okay, then it's fine."

Wei Feng heard everything, and without Shangguan Yu saying anything, he got up eagerly and said, "Let's go."

"……Thanks."

The two people who were not talkative to begin with were especially quiet when they got together. After they walked into the basement one after the other, there was no other sound.

After more than ten minutes, the basement door suddenly opened and hit the wall, waking up the people sleeping in the living room.

Shangguan Yu and Wei Feng came out of the basement. Shangguan Yu, who was walking in front, had a strange expression on his face, which was a little different from his previous calmness and composure, as if he was trying hard to restrain his excitement.

"What's wrong?" Long Qingyu had never seen Shangguan Yu like this before, and he couldn't help but get nervous.

"I just asked Brother Wei to power the radio, and then I received a repetitive broadcast..."

Ling Xuting, who was sitting at the back door, also looked over, waiting for Shangguan Yu to continue.

Shangguan Yu spoke too quickly, choking and coughing, and managed to squeeze out a complete sentence in a halting manner: "There is a safe zone over in Yidong City!"

"Safe zone?"

"Well, most of the city has been protected. It's a very complete and large security zone."

Shangguan Yu has always been calm and rarely has strong emotions about unverified things.

But.

The safe zone, a completely protected safe zone that is as large as half of the city!

For those who are homeless in the apocalypse and deal with zombies every day, such a place has an absolutely strong attraction.

Long Qingyu's first reaction was also excitement, but after calming down, he realized the biggest problem: "Yidong City is more than 700 kilometers away from here."
