Chapter 72: Vent your anger, it’s best to vent it all on the poisonous corpse

A whole day.

Chiye didn't pay much attention to Scarlett.

Without Hela and her group, the number of poisonous zombies increased sharply. Chi Ye was madly immersed in the joy of killing poisonous zombies and couldn't extricate himself.

Occasionally meeting Scarlett's eyes.

He tilted his head and chopped the poisonous corpse more violently.

The arms, heads, and thighs of the poisonous corpses were flying everywhere. The street lights, gardens, and rooftops were all covered with the remains of the poisonous corpses. Looking around, the whole street became extremely tragic.

Scarlett became more and more frightened as she watched, and asked timidly, "Isn't he a little too violent?"

Maybe because she had done something wrong, Scarlett felt a little guilty. When Chi Ye swung his knife at the zombies, she always felt a chill on her neck, as if the knife was aimed at her.

Holst looked at Chiye, then turned and looked at Scarlett twice.

The level has not changed.

Combined with the scene when he went out this morning and saw Chi Ye with a red face, running to the bathroom nervously.

I guessed something.

He smiled and said, "It's okay, it's normal, he needs to vent."

Scarlett nodded in agreement.

Good for venting.

It’s best to vent all your anger on the poisonous corpse so that he won’t cause you any trouble.

…

…

For three consecutive days, Scarlett's key collection progress went smoothly. She got three keys every day on average. Together with the one she got before, she collected all ten keys and would be able to go out tomorrow.

Thinking of this, Scarlett was extremely happy and rushed to the shelter excitedly, waiting for the last round of poison gas release today.

As soon as they arrived, another group of people came in.

Since there are only four teams left, the shelter has been spawned less frequently and the number of people it can accommodate has been reduced, but Scarlett has not encountered any other teams yet.

This is the first time in these days.

She looked at the door that was pushed open, with some anticipation in her eyes, curious about who it would be.

Until I saw someone.

The anticipation in Scarlett's eyes disappeared in an instant.

It's Shirley.

Shirley was also a little surprised to see her. Her brows furrowed, and her pretty face suddenly showed a bit of murderous intent.

This murderous intent did not escape the eyes of Chiye and Holst.

They moved forward, completely covering Scarlett.

Sylvia also stood beside Scarlett, ready to take her into the realm at any time.

Shirley knew the strength of Scarlett and her group and had no intention of conflicting with them, not to mention that Scarlett had saved her life.

"The female master..."

Bach stood sideways in front of Shirley. He didn't know what Shirley was thinking, and his first reaction was to protect her first.

But when he saw Chiye and Holst, and remembered the life-saving grace that day, his gaze paused, turned back to Shirley's face, and called her softly.

I want to advise you not to go against the other party.

Although they are the ones in the upper echelons, they are not bad people.

But when the words came to his lips, he stopped again.

He had not forgotten Duke's death.

While hesitating, he saw Shirley nodded slightly and said, "It's okay."

Shirley took her beastly husband to the other side and sat down, without looking at Scarlett and the other three.

Scarlett, on the other hand, looked at her a few more times.

Especially her face.

…

…

This was the last round of poison gas today. As usual, they had to spend the night here.

This time the shelter is a single-family villa.

The layout is very similar to the villa where Scarlett first met Shirley.

Scarlett is still frightened.

After the room was assigned, she hurried upstairs.

The moment he went upstairs, he was stopped by Shirley.

As soon as Shirley blocked his way, Chiye immediately swung out his tails, nine of them, not one less, the red tips of the tails emitting flames, and stopped in front of Shirley, full of intimidation.

Bach and the other beast husbands were horrified when they saw this and quickly stepped forward to protect Shirley. Holst stood beside them and pounced towards them with his patterned snake tail wrapped in an overwhelming chill.

The three people were all tied up by the snake's tail, and the cold scales pierced into their skin. The sharp pain was not only on the surface, but also took root and sprouted in their bodies like seeds, spreading along the meridians into a huge net, pulling wildly at their flesh.

"Female, female master, be careful."

Bach endured the excruciating pain and reminded Shirley.

When Shirley saw her beastly husband's face full of pain and his eyes red, her heart instantly tightened, feeling sour and painful as if it had been soaked in lemon juice.

But she didn’t want to miss such a good opportunity, so she endured the discomfort in her heart and looked at Scarlett, “Scarlett Shen, let’s talk alone.”

"No!" Sylvia refused on Scarlett's behalf.

Shirley's beastly husband once wanted to kill Scarlett.

He wouldn't let Scarlett be alone with her!

Scarlett didn't want to either.

But when she looked at Shirley's face, curiosity got the better of her, so she nodded and agreed.

"Can."

"No!" Chi Ye roared, forbidding her to agree.

She turned to look at Chiye, took out the gun from the space, pulled the safety bolt, and loaded the bullet. "Don't worry, I'm prepared."

Chiye still disagreed, frowned, and refused to retract his tail.

He even considered killing Shirley outright.

Like Sylvia, he was bothered by the fact that Shirley's beastly husband had once tried to kill Scarlett.

Instead, Holst glanced at Shirley, his eyes drooping, and he thought of something. He retracted his snake tail and said to Scarlett, "You can talk, but not alone. I'll accompany you."

Scarlett thought about it carefully and decided that she couldn't relax too much. She turned to Shirley and asked, "How is it? You don't mind having one more person?"

Seeing that Scarlett had relaxed, Shirley also knew that it was impossible for her to be alone with her under such circumstances. She said "hmm" and went to an empty room together.

As soon as she entered the room, Shirley said, "Duke is dead."

In fact, Scarlett guessed it.

That day, all of Shirley's husbands were there, except Duke.

She knew then that Duke was probably in great danger.

After hearing the news from Shirley, Scarlett's heart still skipped a beat and she felt a little uncomfortable.

She didn't ask when or where Duke died, for she was worried that the answer might be related to her.

She is not a saint and will avoid answers that are not good for herself to avoid being condemned by her conscience.

But she asked another question.

"Do you have a sister?"

Shirley raised her eyes, a flash of sadness flashing across her clear eyes, "Yes."

Scarlett said, "You look a lot like your sister."

Shirley was stunned. "Have you met my sister?"

Scarlett shook her head, "No."

"Then how could you..."

"I've seen her picture."

Shirley was stunned again, recalling the photo posted on Star Network. Her hatred suddenly became intense, and she swept her eyes towards Scarlett fiercely, but then she withdrew her hatred dimly.

After a moment's silence, she asked in a deep voice, "Did you kill Duke?"

"no."

Scarlett answered decisively.

His pale golden eyes looked straight into Shirley's eyes without avoiding or dodging, purely and naturally, reaching the bottom of her eyes at a glance.

Facing such a pair of bright eyes, Shirley didn't look at them for long. She looked at them for one second and then looked away.

She felt a little guilty about what she had done to Scarlett.

She really hated the people above her, but she was also grateful to Scarlett for saving her life.

She was silent for a moment, then turned and left.

This move was sudden, contradicting Shirley's previous determination to be alone with Scarlett. Scarlett was a little stunned. "Is that what you want to say?"

Shirley placed her hand on the door handle, gripping the cold metal tightly in an attempt to stop her hands from shaking.

She already had the answer in her mind when she asked that question.

Even so, she chose to ask once.

Just consider it as an explanation to yourself.

She didn't answer Scarlett's question, but whispered, "I'm sorry."

After that, she added, "And thank you."

…

…

The night passed peacefully.

The next day, Shirley and her group left without saying goodbye.

Scarlett didn't care and took the beastmen to find the door. The location of the door was related to the refreshed shelter. Scarlett had a good memory and opened seven doors in a row, all of which were real.

When they reached the eighth door, they encountered an unexpected guest.

Hela's companion.

A young man with purple hair and white skin, about sixteen or seventeen years old.

He smiled and said, "Don't kill me, I'm here to surrender. I have many secrets here, and some of them are about you. If you want to know, I can tell you."

Since Scarlett's safety was at stake, Chi Ye was extremely alert and swung his knife, not giving the other party a chance to say a second word.

The purple-haired boy reacted incredibly quickly. In a flash, he dodged to the side and rushed like lightning, leaving a shadow in front of everyone. In the blink of an eye, he was behind Scarlett, using her as a shield to block Chi Ye's attack.

And quickly said in Scarlett's ear, in a voice that only they could hear: "Sophia sent us, Your Highness Scarlett."
