"Ah, I, I really don't know." The man continued to resist, trying to appear weak and claim that he really didn't know.

But he seriously underestimated the two people in front of him. They were people who had experienced life-and-death betrayals and lived two lives. How could they not see through his disguise?

So, Gu An reached out, and a golden cube grew from his fingertip. With his gesture, the golden cube slowly melted and floated above the man.

"Aaaaaah!" A heart-wrenching scream rang out. The man's hands were bound, and he couldn't reach his shoulders, which were being corroded by the golden liquid. He could only shake his body as much as possible to alleviate the pain.

"I'll tell you everything, please let me go." He finally couldn't take it anymore.

"Alright, speak up, speak properly." Gu An waved his hand and took back the gold nugget.

Seeing this, the man lost all desire to hide anything and honestly told the truth.

“A few days ago, a girl came to the police station and said she was Xu Zhi’s girlfriend. She said the end of the world was coming and asked the police officers to go out and fight the zombies to protect the safety of the people.”

“But ordinary people have no way of knowing such state secrets, yet she not only knows them, but can also describe them in such detail, even knowing about the existence of hidden beings like those with superpowers…” The man looked at Gu An with a deep gaze, revealing a hint of doubt and vigilance in his eyes.

However, when he met Gu An's icy gaze, a chill ran through him.

It felt as if all of one's thoughts had been laid bare by the other party, leaving no room for privacy.

At that moment, the man truly felt the powerful aura and oppressive force emanating from Gu An.

So, after a pause, he continued, "Therefore, she was suspected of a series of crimes, including disturbing public order, and despite the efforts of the police officer named Xu Zhi..."

The man looked at the woman who had reached out to stop him from continuing, and stopped.

"Tell me, how do you, a prisoner, know so much?"

Jiang Ruan looked at the clothes he was wearing and questioned his words.

The man looked down and gave a bitter laugh. "I'm not a prisoner, but the police are too dangerous, so I had no choice but to take off a prison uniform and wear it."

"Why?"

"Because the Phantom only arrests police officers."

As the familiar name rang out again, Jiang Ruan frowned, a sense of irritation rising within her.

How many of them came?

"Ah, oh, they didn't come. They were all monsters. It was terrifying. Half the police were eaten, and the other half were injured. Then they were gone. They all disappeared."

The man spoke with a hint of fear in his heart.

Even though he was a policeman, the scene was truly cruel, and the brutality was indescribable. Just recalling a little bit of it makes one breathless.

Jiang Ruan stared at him, and after confirming that he didn't dare to lie, she felt a sense of oppression and a huge sense of unease enveloped her.

"What's your name? Why did you run away?" Jiang Ruan forcefully suppressed her discomfort.

The man looked up timidly, as if he had caught a strange scent coming from the monsters that Phantom had brought.

After struggling internally for a long time, the man finally sighed and said nervously, "My name is Li Dongxu. I came to the police station to report a case. My wife ran away, and I came to find her, but who knew I would encounter such a strange thing."

When talking about personal matters, a hint of resentment and hatred flashed across Lee Dong-wook's face.

"Oh, do you know the name of that woman you mentioned, the one brought to the police station?"

Jiang Ruan was indifferent to his private affairs and could easily find pornographic videos in the police station's security department, and watch them without any scruples.

What a good person he is!

Jiang Ruan saw the shattered video and, not seeing the whimpering woman, had already guessed most of the story.

Now that things had come to this point, Li Dongxu stopped hiding it and blurted out, "An, An Chun, if I remember correctly, that's the name!"

Li Dongxu marveled at his good memory, and also at how unique the person's name was; who in their right mind would have a name like "quail"?

The air seemed to freeze for a moment upon hearing the name, followed by another loud bang at the door.

"Oh dear, she fainted again." Hua Yi was embarrassed, helpless and distressed as she helped An Xia up, but accidentally bumped into the somewhat damaged door, making a sound.

“Xiaxia…”

Jiang Ruan was surprised that An Xia arrived so quickly, so she rushed over to help her up and put her on a soft chair.

A pale green healing light enveloped Anxia, ​​and tiny wisps of energy flowed through her body. Before long, she slowly woke up.

"Xiaxia, are you alright?" Jiang Ruan looked at An Xia with concern. This was the second time she had fainted. If she fainted again, her body would suffer a huge loss.

“Ruan Ruan, I, An Chun, An Chun, she…” An Xia grabbed Jiang Ruan’s wrist tightly.

It was as if if he let go, his sister's life would be gone.

"She's alright, believe me, she's really alright, and I already know where she went. Let's go find her now, okay?"

Jiang Ruan held An Xia in her arms, feeling the trembling of the person in her arms, and felt heartbroken.

She turned her head and stared coldly at Li Dongxu, "Tell me, how is An Chun you mentioned? Is she alright?"

Li Dongxu opened his mouth, weighed the pros and cons, and said, "She's fine, perfectly fine. It's just that she went to Phantom, so to find her we'll have to go to their headquarters."

Jiang Ruan breathed a sigh of relief, patted An Xia on the back and said, "Xia Xia, listen, she's really alright, don't worry. Let's go to Phantom. We'll have to fight them eventually, an unavoidable confrontation."

Gu An stood up and kicked Li Dongxu. "You, lead the way!"

Li Dongxu's expression was complicated, and he looked like he was about to cry. "Big brother, grandpa, you're my own father. I've told you everything, please let me go. I have elderly parents and young children to support, I..."

Golden liquid dripped to the side, blocking the crack in the ground and also silencing Li Dongxu.

He suddenly raised his head, as if he had made up his mind, and said loudly, "It's better to die well than to live a miserable life. I'll take you there."

Gu An chuckled, waved his hand to retrieve the gold nugget, and also released Li Dongxu from his restraints.

Jiang Ruan gave Gu An a grateful look, and with his help, she got up from the side, also pulling An Xia up with her.

Hua Yi curled her lip, scoffing at Gu An's actions, and even complained in her heart, "This peacock. He just takes advantage of the boss's hobby to act recklessly, even pulling off a trick like melting gold nuggets. He's only good for fooling children. Only this guy is stupid enough to be fooled by him."

If it were me, I'd chop off his leg or arm, and if he still wouldn't talk, I'd chop off another piece. I bet he'd talk eventually!

Li Dongxu was naturally unaware of Hua Yi's thoughts about him; if he knew, he would probably be so frightened that he would collapse to the ground.
