Chapter 249 You Shouldn’t Live

After sleeping for a long time, Xiao Taozhi finally opened his eyes with difficulty.

A completely unfamiliar breath hit Xiao Taozhi's face, and he couldn't help but shudder in his heart.

Two big black eyes darted around quickly, looking around with curiosity and fear.

The space is not very big and there is only one window, so the sunlight cannot shine in, so the whole room looks very dark.

Next to it are rows of tables, on which are placed various instruments and some bottles and jars.

Under the illumination of the exceptionally cold white light, the entire room seemed to be filled with an indescribable eerie atmosphere.

Xiao Taozhi was now lying on a cold table in the shape of a "big" character.

Her hands and feet were shackled and handcuffed tightly to the table. No matter how hard she struggled, she couldn't break free.

Xiao Taozhi's strength was consumed quickly. Not long after, she lay exhausted on the table, gasping for breath with her cheeks puffed out.

As Xiao Taozhi moved, the shackles accidentally hit the hard and cold table, making a clanging sound that attracted people's attention.

Zhou Wen walked over slowly and stood beside Xiao Taozhi. "Awake? Don't waste your energy. The shackles on your hands and feet are the latest developed, used to imprison prisoners. Even a mad mutant species can't break free, let alone you."

After saying that, Zhou Wen seemed to think of something and added, "Oh, there is something wrong with what I said."

She bent down and got very close to Xiao Taozhi: "I almost forgot, you are not an ordinary human child at all, you are also a mutant species."

Tao Zhi's heart suddenly rose to her throat.

Not only because of what Zhou Wen just said, but also because of everything here.

Zhou Wen had taken off the clothes she wore to the banquet and put on a white coat that only scientific researchers wear. In her rubber-gloved hand, she was holding a syringe that was longer than Xiao Taozhi's fist!

The little girl swallowed unconsciously. She hadn't had a sip of water since she was kidnapped. Her originally pink and moist little red lips had now become extremely dry.

Even her baby voice was a little hoarse, but she still couldn't hide the fear in her words: "You...what are you going to do?!"

"What?"

Zhou Wen lifted the syringe in her hand, moved her thumb slightly, and liquid came out of the syringe.

A bean-sized drop fell on Xiao Taozhi's fair and tender skin, making her shiver suddenly due to the coldness.

Zhou Wen's pupils suddenly widened, with more white than black in her eyes, looking extremely scary.

She stared at Xiao Taozhi fiercely, speaking slowly and clearly, "Of course I'll kill you! Since ancient times, alien species have wantonly harmed humans and committed countless evil deeds. They truly deserve to die! Humans and alien species are sworn enemies. How could I possibly let you live?"

"But Zhizhi has never hurt anyone!"

Since she was born, she has been taught by Grandpa Willow and is determined to be a good demon who is useful to the demon society!

The little guy didn't understand. She had never stepped on an ant to death while walking on the road, let alone harmed anyone.

Since she had done nothing evil, why was she killed?

Zhou Wen said as a matter of course: "You haven't harmed anyone? Even if you haven't harmed anyone, so what? As a demon, you have stepped into our human society, so you should abide by our human rules!

And in the laws we humans have established, you aliens are not accepted by humans! Therefore, you should not be alive!"

When Zhou Wen said the word "alien", a deep hatred appeared in her eyes.

The feeling of disgust, like water from a broken valve, poured out and was about to burst out of Zhou Wen's eyes!

When she thought that the little Taozhi in front of her was also an alien, she simply turned her head away and didn't look at her.

"Your rules are unreasonable!"

Little Taozhi raised his little face stubbornly and questioned without showing any weakness, "But Zhizhi's relatives have always lived in the Fanluo Rain Forest and have never come out. Why did they all die? They have never been to where humans live. Do they deserve to die too?!"

"Fanluo Rain Forest..."

Zhou Wen was suddenly stunned and she repeated it in a low voice.

This place is like a switch. Once it is mentioned, the long-forgotten memories in her mind will become extremely clear and vivid again!

However, she really hoped that that memory could be hidden in the deepest part of her memory forever, slowly decaying and rotting until it was never mentioned again.

Because that memory was so painful that she would never be able to forget it in her entire life...

"Oh."

Zhou Wen pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled, but her smile was very forced and even uglier than crying.

She suddenly asked, "Aren't all the creatures in the Fanluo Rain Forest extinct? How are you still alive?"

Xiao Taozhi was stunned by Zhou Wen's question.

Because she herself didn't know why she was still alive and even turned into a human child.

But Xiao Taozhi's focus wasn't on this at all. Instead of answering, she asked, "How do you know that all the creatures in the Fanluo Rain Forest are dead?"

"What a joke! The great war to exterminate the alien species back then was a story known to everyone in the galaxy! That year, the supreme commander of the galaxy led the human army to victory. Wherever they went, no alien species could survive."

"Humanity was about to achieve a resounding victory in this battle, but you demons were cunning and treacherous, disguising yourself as injured human children to gain the Supreme Commander's trust and infect him, causing him to mutate..."

When she said this, Zhou Wen's voice was already trembling.

But the torrent of memories has already poured out, how can it be stopped easily?

Zhou Wen insisted, "In the end, countless alien species fled into the Fanluo Rainforest. The supreme commander knew he was close to mutation, so he sneaked into the Fanluo Rainforest alone and trapped the alien species with a barrier. Then, the human army dropped a nuclear bomb on the Fanluo Rainforest..."

"The ending is self-evident—no one inside survived, except you."

Zhou Wen approached Xiao Taozhi step by step. "Just how capable are you to survive such a catastrophic war unscathed?"

She seemed to be talking to Xiao Taozhi, but it was more like she was talking to herself.

So she wasn't angry even though she didn't get Xiao Taozhi's win.

Zhou Wen grabbed the little guy's jaw and dug her sharp nails into Taozhi's fair and tender face.
