Chapter 82 She's All Pretending
In the elevator, Duan Xue messed up her hair, tore her clothes, and made herself look extremely miserable. When the elevator stopped, she rushed out crying and shouting: "Hurry up, someone..."
"Mom was bitten to death by a zombie!"
Doors opened one after another. Yang Zhijiang rushed past Duan Xue in two steps and grabbed her arm. "Tell me clearly, what's going on?"
Duan Xue's face was covered in tears. She found Yang Wen in the crowd and said, "Wen, Mom is dead. She was bitten to death by zombies!"
Yang Wen's reaction was even faster than Yang Zhijiang's. His eyes immediately turned red. "Mom went out with you, so why did she get into trouble? Why don't you die? Why don't you just die?"
"Tell her to tell you what's going on?" Yang Zhijiang stopped his son. Lin Hong had followed Duan Xue out to keep an eye on Tian Yao and the others. Now Duan Xue was back, but Tian Yao and the other two hadn't. Could it be that...? He had a guess in his mind.
As if to confirm his thoughts, Duan Xue gritted her teeth and said, "Who else could it be? Mom saw Tian Yao running around outside and tried to persuade her to come back, but not only did Tian Yao not listen, she also—"
She couldn't utter the rest of the words because of sobbing!
Lin He looked at Duan Xue hesitantly. Tian Yao had gone out to find a car, so why did it seem so wrong when Duan Xue said that?
"Where's that bitch Tian Yao?" Yang Wen roared with red eyes, "My mother treated her so well, almost like she was her own daughter. How have I ever let her down?"
Surprise flashed in Han Xiaoyu's eyes. Han Xiaofei shook his head slightly at her and mouthed, "Look down!"
Zhao Wujian said, "Brother Yang, if you had known Tian Yao was this kind of person, you shouldn't have brought her with you!"
"You can only know a person's face but not his heart!" Yang Zhijiang was heartbroken. He took Tian Yao with him because of their childhood friend and seeing that both the couple had passed away, he didn't think much about it and kept her by his side.
Yang Zhijiang asked Duan Xue in a deep voice, "Where is Tian Yao?"
Duan Xue said sadly: "I, I ran away in a hurry and didn't see——"
"If Tian Yao killed my sister, why didn't she kill you to silence you and let you go?" Lin He questioned. Tian Yao, Li Zhen and Duan Lei all have special abilities and there is no need for them to do such a thing!
"I, I saw that the situation was not good, I--" Duan Xue burst into tears, gasping for breath and unable to form a complete sentence.
Yang Zhijiang said with a sullen face: "Wait for Tian Yao to come back and ask her what happened!"
"She killed my mother. Will she come back?" Yang Wen clenched his fists and hit the wall hard.
Duan Xue looked at the elevator with a barely perceptible smile on her lips. Even if Tian Yao came back now, she would not be able to defend herself. Li Zhen and Duan Lei would only be regarded as her accomplices.
"Huff, huff, huff—" Wen Qingjiang stumbled up the stairs. Seeing Duan Xue's appearance, he gasped and said, "She! It's her! She pushed Aunt Yang into the zombie horde!"
"This woman can't walk all the way here. This is all fake. She has super powers!"
When Duan Xue saw Wen Qingjiang, her heart skipped a beat!
Yang Wen grabbed Wen Qingjiang's collar and said, "Say it again!"
"I saw it with my own eyes. She pushed Aunt Yang into the group of zombies. She has special abilities," Wen Qingjiang said word by word, trying to calm his breathing.
"He's lying. He and Tian Yao are in cahoots," Duan Xue pointed at Wen Qingjiang. "He was also involved in killing Aunt Yang!"
"Damn it! I was only a few meters away from Aunt Yang. How did I push you?" Wen Qingjiang was furious. "Aunt Yang was worried you'd get hurt, so she kept holding you. I was three cars away from you!"
"Mad, Yang Wen, you don't believe me?"
Duan Xue swore that Wen Qingjiang and Tian Yao were in cahoots. Now that Tian Yao was gone, Yang Wen was confused for a moment: "Damn it, I'll let Laozi sort it out..."
"Mom is so good to me, how could I possibly--" Duan Xue sobbed.
Seeing this, Yang Wen hesitated even more!
Yang Zhijiang stared at Duan Xue. Wen Qingjiang and Lin He's words made him feel something was amiss: "What's going on..."
Without saying the rest, he looked at the moving elevator.
Duan Xue's mind raced, thinking, even if Wen Qingjiang saw what she did, he had no evidence. Without evidence, she could say whatever she wanted, right?
The elevator dinged open, and Tian Yao, beaming, held up several sets of keys. "I've found several cars. I'll ask Uncle Yang to see which one has poor performance—"
"Hey, why aren't you sleeping? Uncle Yang, we found several cars!"
Li Zhen looked at Yang Zhijiang and then at Zhao Wujian. "Everyone, just because you learned we found the car, you all came to greet us. Isn't that too grand?"
"What happened to my sister?" Duan Lei's eyes widened. "A bunch of you are bullying my sister?"
"Who dares to bully her?" Wen Qingjiang slapped away Yang Wen's hand that was grabbing his collar. "She's a superpower, don't you know that?"
"Ah?" Duan Lei asked doubtfully, "Isn't it a good thing to have superpowers?"
"That's bullshit, just ask her yourself," Yang Wen pointed at Duan Xue, his eyes fixed on Tian Yao. Tian Yao looked no different from usual. He looked at the car keys in Tian Yao's hand. There were several different car models. It would be impossible to find the keys for several of them at once if he didn't check the cars one by one.
Duan Xue, Tian Yao, and Wen Qingjiang all reacted differently. Tian Yao seemed to be genuinely unaware of what was happening. Wen Qingjiang's words were first treated as half-truths. Unless Wen Qingjiang's words were all lies, Duan Xue's words could be confirmed to be true. Yang Zhijiang narrowed his eyes and looked at Tian Yao seriously, taking in every change in her expression: "Xiaoyao, have you seen Aunt Yang?"
"No!" Tian Yao looked into the crowd and said in surprise, "There are three roads after the elevator. We couldn't find the underground parking lot, so we just picked one and ended up in the employee passage outside. There, we found a few cars parked there. We checked and saw they were still drivable, so we took out the key and came back!"
"By the way, Uncle Yang, where is Aunt Yang?"
"You pushed Aunt Yang into the zombie group." At this point, Duan Xue could only hold on to this sentence. She knew that she was pregnant, and Yang Wen and Yang Zhijiang would not do anything to her.
"Me? I didn't even see Aunt Yang, okay?" Tian Yao looked innocent. Duan Xue's appearance and Lin Hong's death completely disrupted her plan. She really walked into another passage with Li Zhen and Duan Lei, and found a few drivable cars before coming back.
"Wen, can you please believe me?" Duan Xue started crying again.
When the woman started crying, Yang Wen was at a loss. Wen Qingjiang knew Yang Wen very well, so he patted Yang Wen on the shoulder and pointed at the roof: "Uncle Yang, Yang Wen, look at that?"
In the corner of the roof was a machine with a flashing red light.
Duan Xue’s crying stopped abruptly!
His face changed suddenly!
Surveillance cameras?!
The red light is still on, which only proves that the surveillance camera is still working!
