The weapon that Commander Long equipped Cheng Shuang with was called a Mauser. The first two shots were accurate, but it became difficult to control by human hands afterward. Even the best marksmen would use two or three bursts or lay the weapon flat at close range to create a fan-shaped firing pattern, which could sweep away multiple enemies charging on the same horizontal plane.

This weapon was very famous during modern warfare and was also known as the box gun.

But Cheng Shuang didn't understand at all.

In the era she was born, war films were overtaken by idol dramas, including war-themed idol dramas.

So all the subsequent shots went into the air.

The demonic infant was so anxious that it wanted to snatch the weapon away and use it, but the little girl seriously suspected that it was just being playful and fooling around.

Fortunately, although the two, one human and one demon, hadn't developed any tacit understanding, they knew that now was not the time for internal strife.

Cheng Shuang was in charge of the area inside the wall, while the Demon Infant was in charge of the area outside the wall.

The little girl took out a bucket of cooking oil from her spatial storage and began pouring it on every burning child that tried to get close. She then quickly took out a cheap lighter that cost only one yuan and added fuel to the fire.

Meanwhile, the demonic infant, wielding a water gun, began spraying water onto the path of the sulfuric acid man and its surroundings, rapidly releasing its own electrical current, which resembled a depleted battery.

With water underneath, the electric current shot into the sulfuric acid man, causing him to tremble uncontrollably and naturally stop in his tracks.

Inside the wall, the heart-wrenching screams of burning children could be heard. Even if Cheng Shuang didn't pour oil on them, they would still let out deafening roars of pain. Now, it was just accelerating the speed at which they burned to ashes.

Outside the wall, a man was spewing sulfuric acid, trembling as he threw it everywhere.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Cheng Shuang climbed up to a dark rooftop. Just as she was about to continue, a gunshot rang out, followed by a woman's scream.

"Quick, keep hitting it!"

Cheng Shuang turned around and saw two women in her field of vision: one in a smart police uniform and the other with a head of short blonde hair.

The one with short blonde hair is naturally the main character, a branch of Aresa's kind side—Rose, Sharon's adoptive mother.

The other policewoman, the little girl didn't remember her name, only her bravery in the movie, unafraid of the monster.

So handsome!

Unfortunately, it seems the policewoman died in the end.

As expected, the policewoman quickly dealt with the acid man, but her helmet and uniform jacket were also hit by the acid. She decisively threw off the clothes that were already hissing and corroding.

The cool-looking girl clutched her chest and exclaimed in amazement.

The demonic infant slammed its fist into the idiot's head. Why wasn't she there to support it when it was electrocuting people? Traitor!

Cheng Shuang nimbly tilted her head and dodged it, "Don't be silly!"

"who?"

The policewoman questioned her warily, raising her weapon and looking up, just in time to see a man and a demon climbing over the wall.

The little girl waved her arm charmingly, "Hello! Policewoman!"

The demonic infant pursed its lips, and the moment the burning child suddenly turned to ashes, fine ashes began to fall from the sky again.

"What exactly is going on?" the policewoman demanded. "Get down here!"

When the policewoman's pupils dilated and she saw Cheng Shuang effortlessly leaping down the wall while carrying a 'person' on her back, she shielded Ross and took a step back, raising her weapon. "Stop! Don't come any closer!"

Ross pointed at the demonic infant in astonishment, "What is it?"

"Auntie, you're being so rude! It's my little nephew!" Cheng Shuang pressed down on the demonic infant's bared teeth face, glaring at the two of them with displeasure. "It's just sick. We're here to visit relatives."

"Sick?" Ross excitedly tried to step forward, but the policewoman held her back. Unable to break free, she could only ask, "What kind of illness?"

"skin disease!"

Demon Infant: ...

"Alright, stop arguing!" The policewoman gripped her weapon warily, looking at Cheng Shuang with a questioning and sharp gaze. "Where exactly is this place? Why is there no radio signal?"

“Silent Hill is also called the Hill of Silence!” Cheng Shuang shrugged. “I don’t know much about the rest. I’m here to find my sister.”

"What's her name? The person you're looking for!" the policewoman pressed again.

“I call her Sister Juan.” Of course, I can’t say her full name here. “I knew she was here. I’m new here too, even later than that aunt. I heard that aunt calling someone’s name and followed her here.”

"Sharon, have you seen my daughter, Sharon?"

The woman's anxiety and worry were so obvious that even the demon infant trembled. It shifted uncomfortably, burying its face in Cheng Shuang's shoulder, not wanting to see the genuine love a mother has for her child.

"Sorry!" Cheng Shuang scratched her face, her words carrying a double meaning. She was somewhat embarrassed by her attitude towards Ross earlier. Cough cough, she wasn't being protective, really not; she was trying to clear herself of suspicion.

The policewoman put down her weapon, and her stern face softened, becoming less harsh. Most people would naturally be kind to a child who is not a bad person.

Ross nodded absentmindedly. Cheng Shuang noticed that her wrists were handcuffed, but Ross didn't seem to care. His face was full of disappointment and anxiety because he hadn't heard from his daughter.

"Don't you believe me?" Ross whispered to the policewoman. "I told you, something's wrong with this world! I need to find my daughter right away, she's sick!"

"I will help you find her!" the policewoman repeated solemnly.

“If you don’t believe me, you can come with me and see for yourself. There’s no road. There’s no road in this town.” Ross paced anxiously back and forth, trying to persuade the policewoman, but she was mostly at a loss.

"Should we leave?" Cheng Shuang timidly raised her hand, the strong smell of sulfuric acid and carbon ash wafting through her nostrils was truly unbearable. "This place doesn't seem suitable for talking or looking for someone!"

The demonic infant remained buried in her shoulder, feigning death. It seemed very uncomfortable with the intense maternal love, as if it wanted to avoid her.

Perhaps it's because we can't get something, and the more we crave it, the more uneasy and hesitant we become when facing it.

"Follow me!" The policewoman nodded, raised her weapon, and walked out of the dead-end alley first. Ross was anxious to find his daughter and hurriedly followed. Cheng Shuang, carrying the demon baby on her back, tiptoed to avoid the pools of residual sulfuric acid. Just as she was about to chase after them, a claw scratched her back.

"I don't want to go with her," the demon baby mumbled, its voice barely audible.

Cheng Shuang tilted her head and glanced at it, "People who are too lazy to take action themselves have no right to make choices."

The demonic infant chewed on her clothes and began grinding its teeth. Idiot! I hate Long Shuang!

Even a demonic infant can only utter a couple of curse words. Its world, though filled with resentment, lacks the worldliness of an adult. The instinct to seek advantage and avoid harm is human nature, which is the ultimate reason why it clings to Cheng Shuang and refuses to leave.

"If you call me aunt, I might consider it..."

"What are you considering?" The sharp, unpleasant voice was tinged with surprise.

Before she could finish speaking, the two women in front of her suddenly took off running. Cheng Shuang turned her head and saw that they were several people covered from head to toe in cloaks. As if they were searching for something, they immediately chased after them.

She vaguely remembered that these people were the remaining residents of the town, and they were cult members controlled by a major villainous female supporting character.
