Chapter 322 Wang Zhen Dies in Battle
At this moment, Wang Bahu was completely stunned on the roof.
The last words of Manager Wang kept echoing in his ears.
"I am lonely because the people I want to confide in are never willing to listen to me speak..."
"I am lonely because the people I want to confide in are never willing to listen to me speak..."
...
"So, it's all because of me?"
Wang Bahu was stunned, staring blankly at the figure that still stood tall in front of him.
He had never heard Wang Zhen say these words to him before.
No, it should be that he never gave the other person a chance to say those things.
Since their relationship began to drift apart many years ago, whenever he encountered his older brother, he would turn away in disgust.
...
Today, by a twist of fate, the two of them finally have this opportunity.
After hearing Chief Steward Wang's heartfelt words in Wang Bahu's ears, he saw the figure in front of him whose life was about to vanish.
Surprisingly, he felt no hatred whatsoever; instead, a faint sense of regret arose within him…
...
At the same time, after coughing up another mouthful of blood, Steward Wang finally stopped what he was doing.
He stopped attacking the zombie king because he no longer had the strength to raise his arm.
The Zombie King frowned and stood still, watching him quietly.
Although the reflection in Steward Wang's eyes was of the Zombie King, another person's face appeared in his mind.
This face belongs to Wang Bahu.
The next second, he shouted again.
“Brother! I know your sins are grave, and countless people have died at your hands.”
"I wonder if the people I save today can make up for those who died at your hands?"
"I wish I could take your place and bear all your sins."
"If possible, let me make up for the mistakes you made..."
...
Upon hearing these words, Wang Bahu's heart skipped a beat, and for some reason, his eyes suddenly reddened.
The Zombie King was also somewhat melancholy at this moment. He knew that Wang Zhen had already said everything he wanted to say.
Although the person in front of him was an old friend, he didn't want to waste any more time.
The next second, he slowly walked forward.
"Alright, Wang Zhen, let's end this game..."
Exhausted, Steward Wang struggled to lift his eyelids, knowing that his life was about to end tonight.
"Director, I'm sorry, this is all I can do..."
He muttered to himself, then smiled with relief.
"bring it on!"
After he finished speaking, the Zombie King slowly raised his left arm and clenched his fist again.
Sigh~
He sighed and uttered a couple of words of lament.
"Wang Zhen! Actually, in my heart, I don't really want to kill you."
"Unfortunately, you've chosen the wrong side!"
As soon as the words fell, the zombie king's expression changed drastically, and his pure white eyes revealed absolute cold-bloodedness and ruthlessness.
The next instant, his clenched fist slammed straight forward!
"Wang Zhen! I told you before that I would leave you with a complete corpse!"
His punch didn't land directly on Wang Zhen's body; instead, he used a thin, long barb from the knuckle of his hand to pierce through Wang Zhen's forehead.
He then quickly pulled his fist back.
...
At the same time, a bloody hole instantly appeared between Steward Wang's eyebrows.
His eyes widened, his pupils dilated instantly, and his life force rapidly vanished...
In the final moments of his life, he forced himself to turn his body around, driven by an unwavering will.
He straightened his chest, looked at his younger brother, and showed the warmest smile of his life.
"Brother... today... I... I'm... very... happy..."
"Because...I...I told you...I said a lot of things I wanted to say..."
"Th-thank you..."
“My dearest brother… From now on, you must take good care of yourself…”
"Xiao Cheng... I, we, in the next life, will, will still be brothers, how..."
As the words fell, Steward Wang slowly lowered his eyelids with a smile on his face.
He felt a little regret, but no remorse whatsoever...
...
At this moment, Wang Bahu stared at the fatal blood hole between the eyebrows of Chief Steward Wang and collapsed to the ground.
His eyes were already filled with tears...
The last words of Manager Wang brought him to tears.
Because Xiao Cheng was his childhood nickname...
He couldn't remember how many years it had been since he had heard anyone call him that again.
Those words just now completely shattered Wang Bahu's last line of defense.
He could no longer hold back and began to sob uncontrollably, as images of the two of them in their childhood kept flashing through his mind:
"Xiao Cheng, Xiao Cheng, I'm your older brother, my name is Wang Zhen!"
"Xiao Cheng, Xiao Cheng, why are you crying? Don't cry, how about I dress up as a little pig for you? Hehehe~ Isn't that fun?"
"Xiao Cheng, Xiao Cheng, eat more, don't go hungry."
"Xiao Cheng, Xiao Cheng, why are you ignoring me? Don't be angry with me, I shouldn't have scared you. I apologize, okay?"
"Xiao Cheng, Xiao Cheng, today is your birthday. Look, this is a toy I gave you."
"Xiao Cheng, Xiao Cheng, this is for you, and this is for you too..."
"Xiao Cheng, Xiao Cheng, what happened to your face? Did someone bully you? Come with me, I'll go beat them up for you!"
"Xiao Cheng, Xiao Cheng..."
...
When he recalled all his past experiences, he regretted it, he deeply regretted it...
He regretted not cherishing his brother who had always been good to him, and he regretted not listening to Wang Zhen's advice sooner...
At that moment, tears streamed down his face, and he choked out a single word.
"elder brother……"
The next second, with blurry eyes, he knelt on the roof, shouting as he reached out to grab at Steward Wang.
"Brother! I was wrong! I know I was wrong!"
...
Steward Wang did not hear what he said.
At that moment, Steward Wang's last glimmer of life vanished; he lost all consciousness and sank completely into endless darkness...
but!
In the moment before he closed his eyes, he saw Wang Bahu's heartbroken eyes, his regretful expression, and his mouth agape as he choked back tears.
Although he didn't hear Wang Bahu's soft muttering, he understood the meaning of the word through the movement of his lips.
He knew that the word was:
elder brother.
At that moment, Steward Wang felt an unprecedented sense of contentment.
He finally witnessed this beautiful scene; he finally witnessed the scene he had always longed for...
"Xiao Cheng, you called me 'brother' again..."
"Xiao Cheng, you've finally come to your senses..."
At this moment, Steward Wang had no more regrets.
A single tear of emotion rolled down his cheek...
Thus, this hero, who had been guarding the underground research institute, ultimately died here.
It was precisely because of his presence that bought time for everyone, allowing more people to escape safely from the underground research institute.
His heroic resistance here indirectly saved thousands more survivors...
In his final moments before death, he used his last strength to straighten his chest.
Even after his life force had faded, he maintained his upright posture and did not fall down for a long time.
His name is Wang Zhen!
