It was only the second day, but everyone's spirits had obviously been affected, and many people were leaning there weakly.
Even the brothers Zhou Ming and Zhou Liang, who usually liked to play games here, were now dying, with a hint of despair evident in their expressions.
If ordinary people walk out from here, they will be eaten by the snakes in an instant, but if they don’t go out, they will still become pawns for these people to explore the way.
No matter what choice you make, it's a dead end.
"The snakes retreated!" Ren Sisi followed behind Fang Zehuan and said this with great excitement.
The crowd, who were originally listless, seemed to be awakened all of a sudden. They gathered around with naked surprise in their eyes.
Ruan Lingran also saw the retreating snakes from above. She was a little confused and slowly drove here with Pei Jin.
These people who once trusted Ruan Lingran very much now had naked vigilance in their eyes and stared at her with suspicion.
"What's wrong with you?" Ruan Lingran took two steps forward.
Brothers Zhou Ming and Zhou Liang did not speak. They were considering whether to believe Ruan Lingran, while the others were obviously on guard and vigilant, with a hint of coldness in their eyes, staring straight at Ruan Lingran.
"You've colluded with the zombies and want to hand us all over to the snakes outside. Now you're acting like a savior. Are you still trying to pretend?"
Ren Sisi walked out from behind the crowd and scolded coldly.
It was as if she had witnessed the various connections between Ruan Lingran and the zombies with her own eyes. Ripples appeared in her palms and she pushed them directly towards Ruan Lingran.
Ruan Lingran, caught off guard, took two steps back. She didn't understand how things had turned out this way. Her dark eyes naturally held a hint of coldness. "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"You are the sinner who colluded with zombies!" A man picked up the bread paper in his hand, crumpled it up, and threw it at Ruan Lingran.
Once there was one, there would be two. All kinds of garbage were thrown directly at Ruan Lingran and Pei Jin. Pei Jin raised his hand to create a barrier to prevent those things from falling on Ruan Lingran.
"Ren Sisi, weren't you captured by a group of snakes?" There was a hint of sharpness in his black eyes as he pointed this out directly.
Because he came from the army, Pei Jin was full of righteousness. He was trustworthy just by standing there. But now he suddenly attacked, and the tenants who were already wavering had naked confusion in their eyes.
They were afraid that they were on the wrong side.
"Me? It's obvious that I knew your plan, so you deliberately wanted to kill me!" Ren Sisi clenched her teeth and her voice became louder and louder.
"You guys are able to have such perfect living conditions in the apocalypse. If it weren't for your alliance with the zombies, how would you have such abundant food?"
Even in the most difficult times, there was never a shortage of fifteen people in Ruan Lingran's hotel. This was the most suspicious point.
"Because I have my own channels and methods, is it necessary for me to tell you these?" Ruan Lingran retorted.
The things about the system were too unbelievable, so of course she wouldn't say it out loud.
As her last trump card to save her life, Ruan Lingran clearly understood that once the system was exposed to the outside world, someone would take advantage of it and use it as a weapon to attack her!
"You can't explain it at all, because everything here is done by you and the zombies through an illicit transaction. You even sent my second brother away to be used as food for the zombies!"
"I don't know what my eldest brother's situation is like now. Dad, Mom, you have already sent off your son, is it going to stay like this?"
Ren Sisi's voice was as loud as a bell. In a place where no one noticed, a faint black mist spread out, making her words more credible.
This was something Ren Sisi realized herself. Since her special ability could control zombies, she could naturally make humans believe what she said.
It just requires some price to pay.
If you can get what you want, these costs are nothing.
"Tsk." Ruan Lingran looked at her with a hint of mockery in her eyes as she quietly watched her perform with all her might. "I've never forced anyone to stay."
"As for you saying that your second brother was killed by me, then get the evidence. With all your words, I even said that you had a deal with zombies!"
Compared to the somewhat crazy Ren Sisi, Ruan Lingran's expression was calm, as if she was neither sad nor happy. She seemed to be indifferent to the truth of the matter. Her calm demeanor naturally made people more trustworthy.
"You're still quibbling!" Ren Sisi outlined all of Ruan Lingran's crimes. She caught sight of Fang Zehuan, who looked dazed beside her, and immediately grasped the most important core.
"Fang Zehuan, did your team go on a mission with her? In the end, only you came back. Don't you have anything to say?"
Fang Zehuan, who was suddenly called out, paused. She couldn't help but think about what happened that day.
It was a monster attracted by Ruan Lingran.
It was Ruan Lingran who took them there. Later, when they met the snake mother, Ruan Lingran seemed to be able to understand their conversation.
At the critical moment, when everyone was dead, Ruan Lingran took her back to the hotel.
Even though both of them were exhausted at that time.
Just thinking about it, Fang Zehuan's eyes suddenly became different, and Ren Sisi, who saw this scene, raised the corners of her lips in satisfaction.
"You remember now, right? Then tell everyone the truth!"
When encountering a group of snakes, Fang Zehuan was the quickest to react, obviously having dealt with them before.
"I..." Fang Zehuan looked at Ruan Lingran and felt that it was inappropriate to say so. She bit her lower lip and said, "I just want to ask you, do you have any selfish motives in taking us to find the crystal core?"
There was a faint hope glimmering in those dark eyes as they looked at Ruan Lingran. Those eyes, as clean and pure as lake water, did not contain any doubt, but only a little hurt.
No matter who you are, you can't tell a lie when facing these eyes.
Ruan Lingran's heart tightened. How could she not have any selfish motives?
"I have selfish motives, but I can swear that I never thought of sending you to be food for the zombies." Ruan Lingran averted her eyes, not daring to look again, but explaining herself reluctantly.
"You knew that one of our men would die there, yet you still did it on purpose?" Fang Zehuan's emotions had already collapsed to the extreme, and Ruan Lingran's words were obviously the last straw that broke the camel's back.
She quickly took two steps forward and reached out to grab Ruan Lingran's collar.
"Do you think it doesn't matter if we die?"
