Xiao Han leaned against the car door, seemingly lazy, but actually extremely alert. His right hand was on his waist, and his left hand gently tapped the car body, at a steady pace.

"Do you really think I'm asleep?" Xiao Han's mouth curled up slightly, but his eyes turned cold. He had already noticed the movement over there, but he was too lazy to take the initiative.

Sister Hong and the others were getting closer and closer, the steel pipes and daggers in their hands glowing coldly in the moonlight.

"Get started!" Sister Hong shouted in a low voice.

Almost at the same moment, Xiao Han stood up straight, with a dagger in his hand.

"You came at the right time. I'm just bored." Xiao Han's voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard by everyone.

Hong Jie and the others paused, apparently not expecting to be discovered. But they were outnumbered and soon mustered up the courage to continue approaching.

"Boy, don't try to show off. Hand over the supplies obediently and I will spare your life!" Sister Hong sneered.

Xiao Han tutted his words, a trace of contempt flashing in his eyes: "I say, you are not sleeping in the middle of the night, looking for death?"

Before he finished speaking, Lu Shiyan in the car had silently opened the door on the other side, with blue arcs of electricity dancing in the palm of his hand.

Seeing this, Ah Hao, who was beside Sister Hong, tightened the steel pipe in his hand and rushed towards Xiao Han.

“Bang!”

With a muffled sound, the man was hit by a blue lightning before he could get close to Xiao Han. He fell to the ground twitching and whimpering in pain.

Lu Shiyan stood in front of the car with a stern expression, and the arc of electricity on his palm was particularly dazzling in the darkness.

"I told you not to make trouble." His voice was calm, but it carried an unquestionable pressure.

Sister Hong's face changed drastically, and she subconsciously took a step back. The tall man also panicked, and they looked at each other and prepared to retreat.

"stop!"

An angry shout came from Li Xinhu, who walked over quickly with a few team members, his face livid.

"What are you doing?!" Li Xinhu glanced at Sister Hong and the others sharply, his voice filled with suppressed anger.

Sister Hong stiffened her neck and refused to admit her fault: "Xinhu, don't be angry. We just want to... want to ask for some food. They have so much supplies, what's wrong with sharing some?"

Li Xinhu took a deep breath, obviously trying to hold back his anger: "I told you guys to stay out of trouble!"

He turned to Lu Shiyan, his expression becoming complicated: "I'm very sorry, they don't know the rules."

Lu Shiyan looked at him coldly without saying anything.

At this time, the electrocuted man barely climbed up, his body still twitching slightly, but his eyes were full of resentment. He suddenly took out a dagger from his waist and rushed towards Lu Shiyan.

"Be careful!" Su Wan exclaimed. She had already stood by the car door without knowing when.

Lu Shiyan's eyes turned cold and he dodged sideways. At the same time, he swung his right hand and a stronger arc of electricity hit the man's chest directly.

"Ah!" A shrill scream resounded through the night sky. The man fell heavily to the ground, his body twitched a few times, and then he stopped moving.

The scene suddenly froze.

Li Xinhu's face turned pale, and he stared at the man on the ground. After a few seconds, he reacted: "Ah Hao!"

He rushed over to check, but the man was no longer breathing, his eyes were wide open, and he died with his eyes open.

Sister Hong and the others were so frightened that their faces lost all color.

Li Xinhu knelt on the ground, closed Ah Hao's eyes with trembling fingers, then slowly stood up and turned to Sister Hong, his eyes full of pain and anger: "Are you satisfied? Ah Hao is dead, are you satisfied?"

Sister Hong opened her mouth, but no words came out.

"I warned you a long time ago not to make trouble!" Li Xinhu said hoarsely, "Now it's all over. Ah Hao is dead, and his wife is still pregnant!"

Sister Hong was trembling all over, and finally her eyes revealed fear and regret: "I... I didn't expect it to be like this..."

Lu Shiyan watched all this expressionlessly. The electric arc on his hand had disappeared, but the air pressure around him was still terribly low.

"Take your people and leave." His voice was as cold as ice. "I don't want to see you again before dawn."

Li Xinhu took a deep breath, managed to calm down, and turned to face Lu Shiyan: "This is our fault, we will leave immediately."

He paused, gritted his teeth and said, "Can... we take Ah Hao's body away?"

Lu Shiyan glanced at him and nodded.

Li Xinhu bent down and picked up Ah Hao's body, then turned and left silently. Hong Jie and the others followed behind him dejectedly, not daring to look at him any more.

Xiao Han put away the dagger, walked to Lu Shiyan, and whispered: "It seems that we are worrying too much. These people don't have the courage."

Lu Shiyan did not respond, but just glanced at Su Wan and said, "Go back and rest."

Su Wan nodded, but her eyes followed Li Xinhu's desolate back with a complicated look. He held Ah Hao's body, and his steps were heavy. Her heart tightened. Although Li Xinhu in the original novel had also experienced hardships, he had never encountered such a heavy blow and crisis of trust in the early stage like now.

'Could it be that because of our presence, the fate of him and the team has completely changed? ' This thought gave her an indescribable complex feeling.

She suddenly had a strong premonition that the fate of Li Xinhu in this world might be completely different from that in the original novel.

Just as the sky was getting light, a heart-wrenching cry was heard in the distance, waking up Su Wan who was resting.

“Ah Hao! No——” The voice was so shrill that it made people tremble, carrying with it disbelief and unbearable pain.

Su Wan opened her eyes suddenly, and the man who was electrocuted to death by Lu Shiyan last night immediately flashed through her mind. She propped herself up and looked out the window.

The camp on Li Xinhu's side was in chaos. A woman with a slightly pregnant belly was kneeling on the ground, hugging the body of the man who died last night, crying at the top of her lungs.

"What's going on? Tell me! How could Ah Hao die?" The woman's voice was hoarse from crying. She looked at the people around her blankly, with unbelievable grief in her eyes.

"It should be the deceased's wife."

Su Wan nodded, her throat tightening. In the apocalypse, every life hangs on the edge of a knife, but witnessing such a tragedy still makes her feel heavy.

Li Xinhu squatted beside the woman, his face sad: "Xiaomei, please accept my condolences. Ah Hao..."

"What's wrong with him? What happened?" Xiaomei raised her tear-blurred eyes and stared at Li Xinhu.

Li Xinhu opened his mouth, seemingly not knowing how to start.

Sister Hong's face turned pale and her eyes were evasive, but her instinct for survival made her want to distance herself from the matter immediately. She looked at Xiaomei, moved her lips, and said in a dry voice: "Xiaomei, calm down... Ah Hao... He was killed by those people on the opposite side... Those people!" She pointed in the direction of Lu Shiyan and the others, and her voice was a little sharp because of her guilty conscience.

Xiaomei's eyes suddenly became wild. She stood up suddenly and staggered a few steps to look towards Lu Shiyan and their camp.

"That's not the whole truth." Li Xinhu grabbed Xiaomei's arm to stop her from moving. His voice was low and heavy. "Ah Hao... followed Sister Hong and the others to attack the enemy last night, but was discovered."

Xiaomei froze in place, the grief on her face gradually turning into confusion and puzzlement: "Sneak attack... what?"

"They want to steal each other's supplies." Li Xinhu closed his eyes and told the truth with difficulty.

Xiaomei's face turned pale and her body swayed a few times. She looked at Sister Hong in disbelief: "You took Ah Hao to attack others?"
