Chapter 125 Another Choice



Qin Bai's voice sent chills down the spines of the residents in the community.

He killed Lin Zhao simply because she was in his way.

Could it be that he also wants to do the same thing as Lin Zhao?

In this case, wouldn't it be like lambs to the slaughter for them to come and try to get their things back?

If they encounter a good person, they will absolutely not give up until they achieve their goal, because they know very well that a good person will not lay a hand on them.

But when they realized that the person on the other side wasn't a good person, but rather a villain as terrifying as Lin Zhao, their legs trembled and they immediately wanted to back down.

"Mr. Qin, you're joking, right? I know you're joking, but this joke isn't funny."

The young man's lips twitched, but he still forced himself to speak despite his fear.

Qin Bai looked at this person with a half-smile. "At first, you thought I was a good person, so why were you so assertive?"

Why did you back down so quickly after hearing what I just said?

"I don't like to joke. You can see on the ground that most of the blood here came from Lin Zhao. I believe some of you heard it, right? His screams last night, those were all my doing!"

Upon hearing this, many people's expressions changed drastically.

The agonizing screams last night were so horrific that some of them must have heard them.

To be honest, they couldn't imagine what Lin Zhao had gone through to let out such a scream, to the point that she was practically screaming herself hoarse.

The young man was speechless. He had indeed seen bloodstains on the ground, but he hadn't expected that such a large amount of bloodstains would be left by one person.

Could it be that Qin Bai, the man before us, is really not a good person, and that he tortured and killed Lin Zhao?

The young man couldn't help but tremble at the thought.

He was so arrogant before because he was sure that Qin Bai wouldn't dare to do anything to him, after all, he was on the side of righteousness!

But when he realized that Qin Bai was not the kind of good person he had imagined, he finally understood what fear was.

"Why is no one speaking? Didn't you want to take back what's rightfully yours?"

Qin Bai glanced around, and no one dared to look him in the eye.

"If you don't want it, get back here!"

Those people felt as if they had been granted a pardon and quickly slunk away without daring to utter a single word.

After seeing Qin Bai display his power and drive those people away, his underlings looked at him with eyes full of admiration.

However, Wu Ming was somewhat worried: "What if those people use other means to take away the supplies?"

"They definitely will."

Qin Bai said.

"Oh? What should we do then? Are we going to have another conflict?"

Wu Ming looked somewhat conflicted.

Qin Bai patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I will give them the right to make their own choices."

Wu Ming initially did not know what Qin Bai meant by the right to choose.

But he soon found out.

The three of them went into the store, and Qin Bai was shocked when he told him about the shelter.

"Are there really shelters? The country hasn't abandoned us? Why don't we go together?"

Wu Ming was very excited, after all, he almost became a policeman, and he had always considered himself a policeman.

Now that he's heard this good news, he's naturally quite excited.

Zeng Qiangguo, being rather mature, seemed to have figured something out.

"Officer Wu, don't get agitated. There might be something wrong with the shelter that Brother Qin mentioned."

Wu Ming was taken aback. What could be wrong with the shelter?

He sat down and waited for Qin Bai's explanation.

"Let me say two things first. First, I can't find any information about the shelter online, and I can't even post any information about the shelter."

"Secondly, I asked an acquaintance in another place, and she told me that she was not receiving any news related to the shelter."

These two points made Wu Ming and Zeng Qiangguo's expressions turn serious.

The two of them weren't stupid; such obvious abnormalities were enough to prove that this shelter had a major problem.

"It seems that the shelter might not have been built by the government. Who on earth is so bold as to attract an entire city to it?"

Wu Ming couldn't quite understand it.

After all, once one person knows this news, many more people will soon find out as well.

When the time comes, a group of people will head to the shelter. Even if there are traps there, they won't be able to handle so many people.

"So I need someone to scout ahead."

Qin Bai stated his thoughts directly.

Wu Ming was startled: "But they..."

"Old Wu, those people were just trying to steal our supplies. If I hadn't stopped them, what do you think would have happened?"

Wu Ming remained silent, but Zeng Qiangguo added, "If it weren't for Brother Qin, there would likely have been a bloody conflict, and the conflict between us and the residents of the community would have escalated further, ultimately making us the second Lin Zhao in their eyes."

"Of course, things aren't bad now, but deterrence is better than actual action, and besides, I've prepared a way out for them."

Qin Bai smiled slightly.

Wu Ming knew that the way out Qin Bai was referring to was a refuge.

He thought for a moment and said, "But will they believe you?"

"It's simple, I'll just take out my phone or radio and let them listen to it."

Afterwards, Qin Bai sent someone to each building to call out to each household to send a representative here.

He held an old-fashioned radio in his hand, with new batteries inside, and turned it on in front of everyone.

The voice that Qin Bai had heard before appeared again.

Those people's faces lit up with surprise; compared to them, the state-established shelters were naturally much more attractive.

If they stay here, they'll starve to death sooner or later. They might as well take a chance and go to a shelter.

They believed that once they reached the shelter, there would be plenty of food and drink, and they wouldn't starve.

At this point, someone raised a question: "What if we encounter an ice corpse on the road?"

These words surprised many people. Yes, what if they encountered an ice corpse?

Although they had never faced the Ice Corpses head-on, many of them knew that the Ice Corpses were a group of monsters, and the only way to deal with them was to run away.

They didn't have the guts to deal with the ice corpses.

"It's very simple. There won't be many ice corpses. As long as you all go together, who gets caught by an ice corpse depends on their luck."

Qin Bai said, "Or you can choose to stay; no one will force you."

The group fell silent. Of course they wanted to stay, but they really didn't have much food left.

If we stay here, we'll probably starve to death.
