Chapter Sixty-Two: I'm not one to reason.

When Zhao Wenjing saw Qiao Xi suddenly appear, she cried out in panic, "Sister Xi Xi, run! Don't let them catch you!"

The man, unfazed by the dagger at his neck, chuckled, "Yeah, you'd better run, or we'll catch you."

The man tidying up behind him heard the noise and turned around to look.

They didn't even notice Josie, just laughing along from the sidelines, showing no intention of helping at all.

puff……

The dagger plunged straight into the man's heart.

He hadn't even reacted when the blood splattered out; a smile was still on his face.

Only when the pain shot through him did he frantically clutch his wound, stammering, "You...I..."

The man behind him reacted immediately, drew his knife, and rushed over.

Josie was on guard against him, and almost as soon as he moved, she turned into a scrap of paper and fell next to the pillar.

The man then realized that they had provoked a superhuman.

Ignoring the man on the ground who had been stabbed in the chest, he looked left and right before running frantically out of the shed.

As soon as he left, Josie immediately transformed into human form.

The tent area is full of ordinary people; if they had superpowers, they wouldn't have ended up here.

In their minds, superhumans are like gods. Even if they run rampant in the tent area, they dare not provoke them.

Josie only dared to venture deeper into this place because she knew they were all ordinary people and that she could at least escape unscathed with her skills and superpowers.

The girls present initially thought she was courting death, but to their surprise, she killed the man they dreaded.

"Sister, save me."

Several girls pleaded with her for help.

Josie didn't say anything, but she used the dagger to cut the rope one by one.

"Run quickly!"

That's all she can do to help. If those people catch up, she's safe on her own, but she still has to protect Zhao Wenjing.

After six or seven girls ran out of the shed, the man on the ground who was trying to call for help also breathed his last.

This wasn't the first time she had killed someone. She indifferently stepped over the corpse lying in front of her and led Zhao Wenjing out of the shed.

They ran out of the tent area as fast as they could.

Along the way, they encountered many men with gleaming eyes. Josie gripped her blood-dripping dagger and glared back fiercely.

Those men didn't dare to make any rash moves.

A few minutes later, Josie grabbed Zhao Wenjing's hand and rushed out of the tent area.

After realizing that no one was chasing them, she pulled Zhao Wenjing to slow down.

As the two walked back to the vicinity of the apartment building, Josh spotted Chen Peng's figure flash by in a shop.

Qiao Xi stopped in her tracks and said to Zhao Wenjing beside her, "Wenjing, you go upstairs first."

Zhao Wenjing was still in shock and held onto her hand tightly. "Sister, where are you going? Come back with me. It's not safe outside."

Josie patted her hand and smiled, "It's precisely because it's unsafe that we have to ensure your safety."

Zhao Wenjing didn't quite understand, but under Qiao Xi's insistence, she could only let go of his hand and go upstairs, looking back every few steps.

After Zhao Wenjing went upstairs, she turned and walked towards the shop across the street.

The shop was dark and there wasn't much to sell.

"Chen Peng, come out!"

No one responded to her.

Josie picked up the dagger and shook off the blood.

The voice was languid, "Stop hiding, I just saw you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Peng walked out of the dark room with a smile. "Miss Qiao, was that you calling me just now?"

Josie smiled and beckoned to him with her finger.

Chen Peng was taken aback, but immediately smiled and approached her. He knew he shouldn't make a move on her, but what if this girl took a liking to him and wanted to be with him?

With that thought, his gaze gradually became more blatant.

Josie raised the dagger and waved it in front of her eyes twice. "What are you thinking about?"

Chen Peng saw the bloodstains on the dagger, swallowed hard, and then smiled apologetically, "No, I just wanted to know if Miss Qiao wanted to see me about something."

Josie paced back and forth, her eyes fixed on him. "My little sister almost got killed in the tent area today. Shouldn't you take some responsibility?"

Chen Peng was taken aback. "What...what does this have to do with me?"

"What does this have to do with you?" Josie smiled. "Originally, it had nothing to do with you, but who told you and your mother to take advantage of us? So... from now on, if my mother-in-law and sister have any problems, my husband and I will hold you accountable first."

Chen Peng looked as if he had been fed a pile of excrement, feeling utterly uncomfortable, unsure whether to swallow it or spit it out.

“Miss Qiao, let’s be reasonable. How am I supposed to know where your sister will go or what she will encounter?”

"Sorry, I don't like to reason with people. Besides, when you thought we were easy to bully, did you ever reason with me?"

Chen was about to speak again in defense when Qiao Xi raised her hand to stop her, "Let it go this time, but if they encounter danger again in the future, my man will come after you."

“Miss Qiao, although I am a superhuman, I also need to make a living and support my family.”

"Isn't this all your territory? Say hello to them, then go to the tent area and explain things clearly to the local thugs there... In short, I don't care how you handle it, if they run into any problems, I'll hold you accountable!"

Chen Peng suddenly became fierce, "Aren't you afraid that before your man comes back, I'll kill them all and then take you away?"

Chen Peng felt that if he didn't fight back, he would probably be trampled underfoot by this woman forever.

But after saying that, Josie showed no sign of fear at all.

“Then you can give it a try…” She slowly sheathed the dagger and then uttered a few more words, “Oh, I forgot to tell you something, I’m also a superhuman.”

After saying that, without looking at Chen Peng's fascinating changes in expression, she turned and walked towards her residence.

Pushing open the door, I saw Chen Qiurong talking quietly to Zhao Wenjing.

Upon hearing the noise, Zhao Wenjing immediately turned around and tried to wink at Qiao Xi.

Josie could tell from her expression that she hadn't told her mother-in-law the truth.

She walked in with a smile and sat down next to Chen Qiurong. "Mother-in-law, I knew Wenjing would be alright. She even got back before me."

"I was just worrying too much. It's good that you're alright, it's good that you're alright."

Josie knitted with them and chatted.

The whole day slowly passed...

But today's events also served as a wake-up call for her.

We're just ordinary people in the tent area now, but what if we encounter powerful superhumans in the future?

During the time she spent with Feng Ye, her supernatural power reserves had increased significantly, and she felt like she could level up at any moment, but she was stuck there.

After thinking about it at home for two days, Josie made her decision.

She wants to leave the safe zone and go out to train her superpowers.

Her superpower isn't particularly lethal, but it's a powerful support ability. If she can perfectly combine her skills and superpower in a zombie horde, she might even have an advantage against other superpowered individuals of the same level.
