If Salvation Army 5

At first, staying at the Salvation Church was something Lina was very unwilling to do.

If any beautiful young girl were suddenly told one day that she would have to stay with a bunch of wicked people, the protagonist's experience pack, and a small group that would eventually die, and it might be for quite a long time, Lina would bet no one would want to.

Just hearing that is incredibly unlucky.

Although she herself is not a good person, and in fact she is the kind of person who does evil, who in this world doesn't have a dark history?

Looking back now, it's possible that she was actually terrified at the beginning of the catastrophe, which is why she did some things that sound really awful.

She was prone to escapism, and after losing something, she became resentful and turned to the dark side. She tortured and killed that group of people, which is an indelible fact. It's not so much about killing, but about torturing them.

She was practically insane back then, otherwise she wouldn't have done something like skewering human flesh.

If she could do it all over again, she definitely wouldn't have done that.

She regretted it every day, especially every minute she spent in the Salvation Hall. After all, there, she was a moral paragon in the garbage heap, and the torment of her conscience tormented her constantly.

She regretted it every single day, wondering why she hadn't chopped up those guys' enoki mushrooms, sliced ​​them, cooked them, and fed them to them clean.

How could she not treat those guys out of humanitarian spirit? Even though she couldn't find any soot from the bottom of a pot at home, she could still find a way to burn some wood ash.

In short, she was far too simplistic and crude at the time, which was not good.

Look, this moral exemplar in the garbage dump is so moving, Lina is almost moved to tears.

So, what I'm trying to say is that, after all, she's from the same trash heap, so don't really think of her as a good person. Everyone has a past, and everyone makes mistakes. Although not everyone has the chance to make amends, Lina is a bit biased.

She was doing a great job with her group of friends, and they felt like they had a sense of purpose in life. Now, Negan has broken them up.

That would be very uncool.

In fact, Lena had already started to get upset during Negan's self-righteous conversation last time. She said that she was born with the right to make the rules, and she wasn't kidding.

Before this, she had been waiting for the right opportunity. Of course, she figured that if she just lay down and waited for time to pass, Negan would naturally be dealt with by Rick and his men. Why should she bother?

However, she disliked Negan's rule-based approach.

She certainly believes in the conclusion that population is a resource, but before they are resources, they are also human beings, with emotions and the capacity for suffering, just like herself.

She had no interest in or ambition for the so-called 'salvation'; she only wanted to do these things because, since you want me to follow your rules, why not take a look at my rules?

Because I am confident that my rules are better than yours.

After all, the ultimate beneficiary became 'me'.

Rather than waiting for Rick and his crew to show up at any time, Lina decided to take her own people and pull off something big.

In traditional Chinese terms, this behavior could be considered a usurpation, or rather, an uprising.

Using the wisdom of her ancestors, Lina refused to believe she couldn't defeat these foreigners.

Although her people were scattered, that was better; it made it easier for her to gather information and then recruit more scattered individuals with the same aspirations.

Of course, she knew that quality was more important than quantity, but who knew whether the people she recruited were reliable or not.

"...So, I need to assign a few people to help me train these newbies." Lina glanced at the three rows of people in front of her, about thirty in total. Seriously? Asking her to teach them would be exhausting!

Moreover, of the people she recruits from others, she's unlikely to train even a third of them; in fact, she'd have to be careful not to get scammed. She's not going to do something that loses money.

“Of course, it’s an agreement.” Negan wasn’t going to push Lina too far, after all, the fact that she could accept her team being broken up already made him feel much better.

“Let Paula choose a few people herself,” Lina said after thinking for a moment. She remembered that the outpost where Paula was assigned was the one near the hilltop village, and they were killed by the great Carol.

“Sure,” Negan agreed readily. “As long as she takes responsibility?” Negan looked at Lina inquiringly. What about Laura?

“Of course, what else? Who else do you want to give me?” Lina frowned. “If you’re really that wary of me, why give me the power in the first place? I can do without the squad; you can let whoever you want do it.”

"...Then you should just stick to your job. I don't want to see another drunkard." Negan felt that Lina's behavior was a bit strange, and before leaving, he couldn't help but ask, "Do you know that your expression is like you've injected peppermint oil into my condom? What kind of naughty idea are you up to?"

"..." What? She did this before? Lina's pupils dilated in shock. She's not clean anymore.

"..." Negan gave Lina a deep look, then turned and left. Whatever she was going to do, it might be interesting, and he wasn't one to sit idly by and wait to die.

After smoothly handing over the work to Paula and the others, Lina happily shouldered her small backpack and went out to 'scavenge for supplies'. The newcomers weren't getting along well, so it was easier for her to go by herself. Of course, the main reason was that she wanted to find her secret weapon.

"Hey, Lina! It's so good to see you back!" Sherry stopped Lina a little nervously. She used to be in Lina's team, and Lina had a good impression of her.

"What's wrong? Where were you transferred to?" Fortunately, Lina wasn't in a hurry, so she chatted with Sherry.

"...Following them to lure away the horde of corpses near the Church of Saviors, it was alright, they got the hang of it." Shirley looked at Lina with some worry, hesitating to speak.

"What's wrong? Just say it."

“I need medicine, my sister…” Shirley pursed her lips, almost crying. “I haven’t earned enough points, or rather, we do the same job, but they won’t give me the medicine. Negan, Negan wants it…”

“Damn it,” Lina rolled her eyes and sneered. This wasn’t the first time Negan had done this. “I’ll go get you some medicine. It might not be much.” Lina suppressed her anger. Negan would find a way to get what he wanted, so she could only try to calm him down.

“Thank you,” Shirley wiped away her tears. “I hope, I hope we can be like before.” Shirley looked at Lina firmly; she didn’t want to be manipulated by others anymore.

"...It will be alright." Lina patted Sherry's shoulder. Even though Lina was mentally prepared, she almost didn't get the medicine, which made her even more determined to make her decision.

Let's get him.

Lina was gone for a week, and the Saviour Church looked the same as before, but when she returned, it was completely different.

Shirley's sister died, Shirley married Negan, and Dwight rose to become one of Negan's right-hand men.

Damn it.

She was only a little bit late!

The outposts on the hilltop were also completely wiped out, completely wiped out!

The plot is about to begin, damn it! She was just about to cause trouble, and now the plot has to come out of nowhere to steal her spotlight?

hateful!

Because of Dwight's intervention, Lena had to postpone her plans. Of the current five, Laura has been practically kicked out of the center, and Dwight has filled her spot. Gavin spends most of his time at outposts near the Kingdom of God, while Simon travels back and forth between outposts and occasionally causes trouble, making him a very unstable factor.

Regina could be described as either obedient to Negan or not so obedient, given her wild side in private, and as a peer like Lena, her restraint has its limits.

Besides, she definitely won't work with Lina.

As for Dwight, although she's troublesome, she has Sherry, who can help her.

But judging from this, there are still many people she needs to be wary of, basically everyone.

So, the note Laura received contained only one word: wait.

It's hard to say when that will be, since she has to get in touch with Sherry first, and then have Sherry persuade Dwight. But Dwight is probably not so easy to persuade right now, so she has to persuade Sherry to knock Dwight unconscious and throw him aside so he won't get in the way.

This is so annoying, this damn plot.

While waiting for her chance, she was forced to live a leisurely life again. Her daily work consisted of giving orders, training new recruits, and then returning to her room every day to beat up the pretty boy that Negan had sent in to seduce her.

Days passed by like this, and before she could find an opportunity to deal with Dwight, the Saviour Church launched a major operation to besiege Alexander.

These kinds of missions usually don't concern Lina, but this time she has to participate, at least to save Glenn.

After all, his Asian face actually won Lina's favor, and besides, his wife is pregnant!

Of course, her involvement was simply sitting in the car playing Ludo with Negan. With subordinates around, wouldn't it be embarrassing for the boss to do everything?

Moreover, Lina didn't want to do this kind of work that would be an accomplice to evil.

Wait a minute, isn't collecting so many supplies every time also aiding and abetting evil?

Forget it, I shouldn't take life too seriously.

"I won, but you have to grant me one request." Lina had all her pieces in the finish line, but Negan cheated, pushing all his pieces aside. "That doesn't count, let's play again!"

"...Childish, can't take a joke." Lina looked at Negan with disdain. "Get this straight, old man, you're not young anymore. If you can't take a joke at this age, Death will bury you."

"..." Negan was a little frustrated. How could they have lost? Was it really because Lina's luck was just too incredible?

There was a knock on the car door, and Ganigan took the stage.

Perhaps to avoid Lena's disdain, Negan got out of the car very happily, but Lena thought he was just looking for fun, which was why he was so happy.

Lina didn't get out of the car. She sat by the window, looking at the center of the crowd. The view wasn't very good, but she decided to just listen to what was going on.

Redheaded Abraham was the first to suffer. Lena didn't move, so it seems she was also an executioner, but she had no choice. One of these people had to die. She was already displeasing Negan if she managed to save the second one. If she had jumped out from the beginning, there might have been even more deaths.

So when Daryl rushed to beat him up, Lina walked out.

It's so dirty, but so astringent.

Lina silently looked away. Was she about to get her period?

"What? You want to join in too?" Negan looked at Lina with some surprise.

"Just looking," Lina said awkwardly.

Negan nodded casually and moved on to the second unlucky victim, Glenn, who got hit on the head with a baseball bat.

"Tsk, Negan, you just gave me a condition for losing." Lena spoke as the bat kissed Glenn for the second time.

Negan put down his bat. "Seriously?"

"Anyway, aren't you keen on sending me men? I think he's pretty good," Lina shrugged innocently.

"..." Negan stared at Lena's expression, still unwilling to give up, then looked at Glenn suspiciously. "Alright," he didn't refuse Lena. It was rare for the child to have taken a liking to one, so he decided to give it to her.

“Then I’ll have to think about it again,” Negan said, looking at the crowd with a troubled expression.

"Haven't you already met your KPIs? Hurry up and finish this. Don't ruin my people. What if they go back as idiots?" Lina said righteously.

“…” Negan glanced at Lina suspiciously again, then asked himself, something’s not right, is it? Something is not right; can I agree? It’s not a big problem.

Poor Rick was dragged away. Lena glanced at Laura, who then dragged Glenn into the car. The brain was a dangerous thing; he'd need to get treatment from a doctor when they got back.

Having finished her business, Lina had no desire to stay there. She secretly glanced at Daryl, then got into her car without changing her expression.

Ugh, so astringent. How can someone's head be swollen like a pig's and still be so astringent?
