Wrongful killing
With a drip.
Bian Chengsi picked up the remote control and turned on the indoor air conditioner.
The cold air blew right towards Huo Chi's face, blowing his messy hair into a dry mess. His chin was already red, and he touched it with his fingers. He had to endure his temper.
Huo Chi picked up his clothes and put them on his shoulders. He was not wearing any clothes, with his upper body bare. He stood up straight, looking a bit like an "iron-blooded tough guy". His expression was very serious. While his body was still hot, he quickly pulled Jiang Ziyao's hand and wanted to move to another position with Jiang Ziyao.
But the sound of Bian Chengsi's voice forced them to stop: "Um... I have something to say."
Huo Chi's expression changed.
Jiang Ziyao looked at him: "What's the matter?"
Bian Chengsi's expression was quite natural. He didn't mind Jiang Ziyao's somewhat unfamiliar words in front of everyone. Huo Chi urged: "Go on."
Bian Chengsi was talking about him and Zhou Ting. They had been working together on missions recently and had become familiar with each other.
"I had some misunderstandings with Zhou Ting before, but now they have been resolved."
Huo Chi understood the point he wanted to make from his suddenly coy expression and interrupted him: "Are you in love?"
Bian Chengsi blushed a little, and nodded: "Zhou Ting and I went to the same elementary school, and we were childhood sweethearts, but she later transferred to another school and thought that my family looked down on them, so she hated me when she grew up. She was actually a very cute girl before."
Although Zhou Ting's mocking words made him lose face when they met again, the misunderstanding was resolved and did not affect his feelings towards Zhou Ting.
Bian Chengsi's eyes were telling of his love, Huo Chi was silent. What good could come of falling in love with the daughter of his enemy? And there wasn't much he could say now.
Jiang Ziyao asked: "What are you doing with the city lord?"
Bian Chengsi replied: "We are discussing the engagement. Uncle Zhou feels that the atmosphere at the base has been too bad recently, and he wants Zhou Ting and I to have a lively wedding."
Bian Chengsi is not a fool, but he is often unreserved towards people he trusts. Jiang Ziyao couldn't help but sigh.
Bian Chengsi asked: "What's wrong?"
"I'm happy for you." Jiang Ziyao answered quickly. He didn't show any unusual emotions. He was indeed happy for Bian Chengsi. It was rare that love could still arise in the apocalypse. Even if everything was fake, the love between the two people must be real. He reminded: "Since you are going to get married, you will be two people in the future. You have to be more careful in doing things."
According to the text he had read before, Zhou Kangcheng's original plan to break off the engagement was changed, but he and Bian Chengsi were still on opposite sides. Jiang Ziyao didn't know what trap he was planning to set this time, and Bian Chengsi would definitely be passive and not benefited.
"Your own safety comes first."
Jiang Ziyao asked; "What is your future mission?"
Bian Chengsi smiled after hearing the caring words, "It's to maintain the internal security of the base. The outbound missions are now being carried out by the Second Law Enforcement Team, but I will stay at the base to liaise with the First Team."
"Inside..." Jiang Ziyao nodded.
That’s right. Zhou Kangcheng couldn’t do anything from the outside. He could only take action inside the base. But as for killing Bian Chengsi, Jiang Ziyao couldn’t think of any means to achieve this.
"Then you must carefully distinguish before you do anything, and don't do anything that is not good for you, no matter who ordered you to do it."
Bian Chengsi said: "I will pay attention to it."
"Okay, then you, have a good rest, we'll go back to the room first." Huo Chi felt that there was nothing more to say, he pulled Jiang Ziyao towards the bedroom, pointed back and warned: "Don't knock on the door, we're going to sleep."
Bian Chengsi knew that the two had a secret. He watched the bedroom door shut tightly and whispered, "Is there anything you can't tell me?"
Early the next morning, Zhou Kangcheng gathered all the base workers and foreigners together. He brought Bian Chengsi to the stage, stood tall, introduced this relative he had finally met, and solemnly announced his identity as his son-in-law.
Bian Chengsi, Zhou Ting's fiancé, and their wedding were scheduled for ten days later. Jiang Ziyao looked at the reactions of the crowd and only saw strangeness on the faces of the second team of law enforcers. Zhou Ting herself accepted it well, and the rest was just shocked.
It took a total of half an hour, but the meeting time was deducted from the break, which made most people unhappy with this sudden celebrity.
This was Zhou Kangcheng’s first step.
Jiang Ziyao thought that after he and Huo Chi separated from Bian Chengsi, they went to the East Sentry Tower. Taking on the security here was their latest mission. Originally stationed here was a team of ordinary people led by Wang Ji, and they all had some weapons in their hands.
Jiang Ziyao went to the armory and got a pistol with a full magazine. Wang Ji was very enthusiastic when he saw him, because this was earned through a thrilling victory last time.
He and Huo Chi guarded the city wall for two hours. Everything was calm, giving him plenty of time to continue thinking about Zhou Kangcheng.
Zhou Kangcheng finally died at the hands of Bian Chengsi. This information was very useful. Whether he was forced to defend himself or actively murdered, Bian Chengsi would always see his uncle clearly one day.
Is Zhou Kangcheng an alien? Jiang Ziyao is not sure about this. If he is, he must be a high-level person with great strength. If the contradictions of Utopia are not resolved, it will collapse sooner or later. Killing Zhou Kangcheng and changing the order of Utopia will be a very complicated road.
Wang Ji had a good impression of Jiang Ziyao and Huo Chi and was happy to help them. Jiang Ziyao asked him to go to the crowded places in the factory and pay attention to Bian Chengsi's movements. Not long after, he came back with bad news.
The masses started to riot again. This time the fuse was Bian Chengsi. From Wang Ji's tone, the situation seemed a bit bad. Jiang Ziyao had to go and take a look. The incident happened in a planting factory. The people here specialized in turning inorganic toxic soil into organic soil that can be planted. One person died.
This person is the leader of the research group, Li Bing.
First, second, the law enforcement teams were still in the base. The incident happened to be close to the base, so Jiang Ziyao and Huo Chi chose to leave their posts. When they arrived, Bian Chengsi was surrounded by a large group of shadows and beaten and kicked. He held his head and did not resist.
There were broken bricks on the ground and blood on his forehead. Huo Chi asked Jiang Ziyao to stand outside the crowd. He rushed in first and pushed away the people fighting with swift hands and feet. He pulled Bian Chengsi out.
"If anyone tries to hit me again, I'll fight back!"
Huo Chi's expression was ferocious. When he pulled the people out, he looked at the expressions of the group of people. They were very angry, like roaring hounds. But what about Bian Chengsi? There were fist marks on his face and blood on his mouth, but his eyes were dull and a little cold.
Huo Chi yelled at Bian Chengsi: "What happened?"
Bian Chengsi raised his head and looked at Jiang Ziyao and Huo Chi. He was no longer as calm as before: "I killed someone."
"I received an order to kill the infected..."
His breathing was rapid, and his head was filled with a dense buzzing reverberation. He felt confused and in pain.
"Calm yourself down first."
Huo Chi shouted and walked to the front to block the person who was about to rush over and swing his fist.
Jiang Ziyao roughly understood what he meant from these two sentences. He squatted down and checked the body on the ground.
"What are you doing!" Someone jumped up, but was suppressed by Huo Chi: "Don't move! My anger has no eyes!"
"Brother Jiang, please pay attention."
Jiang Ziyao quickly checked the body. The head was charred and a burnt smell filled his nose. There were no other wounds. Bian Chengsi must have fired a thousand-drum thunder at the top of his head. The man was already dead.
"Did he attack you?"
Bian Chengsi shook his head: "I thought he was infected..."
But this person obviously did not have the characteristics of an infected person, which meant that Bian Chengsi had killed an ordinary person by mistake. Jiang Ziyao was a little angry, and he frowned tightly. Was it Zhou Kangcheng's order? But there was no time to think about this now.
At this point, Bian Chengsi had become the enemy of the masses, he was the most suitable person to be a public enemy, Zhou Kangcheng had just announced him as his son-in-law, an outsider who had no good feelings towards him, and now a murderer.
"ah--!"
At this moment, someone suddenly screamed, and something suddenly broke out in the crowd. There was an obvious sound of biting, and people scattered in panic. Jiang Ziyao rushed forward and saw blood all over the ground. There were zombies gnawing on people's necks. The bitten people kicked their legs twice and then became motionless.
The Walking Dead?
Jiang Ziyao was not sure, or should it be said that it was a zombie with its own consciousness? He was hiding in the crowd waiting for food? The behavior of this sudden attack was also very strange. He raised his head, his eyes were silver-white, his face was full of purple blood vessels, his teeth were sharp, and he had a foul smell.
The person who was bitten had a large piece of flesh missing from his neck and shoulder, so there was no possibility of him being alive.
Jiang Ziyao fired a shot, and the infected person quickly jumped up from the corpse. In order to prevent the person on the ground from mutating, he immediately shot the corpse in the head.
The infected tried to attack more people, but Huo Chi blocked the way to its right. His flames were very dazzling, so the infected turned back to the left. Bian Chengsi was also very fast, and the three of them directly blocked the infected's retreat.
Jiang Ziyao stared at their every move and silently raised his pistol. He did not take any action. The person closest to the infected person was Bian Chengsi.
The electricity in Bian Chengsi's palm crackled, and a pair of hands suddenly stretched out from the frightened crowd behind him. Jiang Ziyao moved his gun towards him, aimed, and then pierced the other person's palm as he tried to push someone.
A gunshot was heard and a scream was heard.
Bian Chengsi was stunned. The moment he turned around, the infected person had already attacked him.
The speed of the infected person did not even reach the intermediate level. Even Huo Chi was puzzled. Bian Chengsi did not resist at all. His supernatural power was still hanging in his hand without being used.
Bang--!
Jiang Ziyao stood in the wind. He fired decisively. His expression remained unchanged. He watched coldly as the bullet pierced the infected person's head and sank into a wooden stake in the distance.
The bullet turned the infected person into a corpse, pressing on Bian Chengsi.
A foul stench hit him in the face. Bian Chengsi pushed the corpse away and stood up.
Jiang Ziyao understood even more clearly that this was a trap tailor-made for Bian Chengsi.
"Is your brain okay?" Huo Chi was very angry at his reaction and slapped him on the head: "Are you like a sandbag and you can't even fight?"
Bian Chengsi was in a daze, his face pale: "My mind is a little confused. He smiled at me just now. I'm not sure if he is a normal person."
Huo Chi was so angry that he was swaying on the spot: "Can't you see his mouth is full of blood? I think you are crazy!"
There are now three bodies on the ground, and Bian Chengsi is now charged with another crime: failure to perform his duties and resulting in sacrifices.
Jiang Ziyao saw many terrified faces. The people who were originally frightened picked up their weapons again, pointed at Bian Chengsi, and shouted that they wanted to kill him.
Jiang Ziyao said: "Burn the body first."
The three big fires made people's faces red, but the crowd was still shouting and cursing with red faces and ears.
Bian Chengsi was obviously unable to withstand it. He had only killed enemies and evil people, but had never been stained with clean blood.
"Get out!"
“Get out!!”
"Why isn't it you who died?"
Someone angrily hit Bian Chengsi with a digging shovel, and Bian Chengsi could only keep backing away.
"Calm down!" Huo Chi shouted, "There's no point in shouting now!"
"What happened?" The on-duty personnel arrived late, and even Zhou Ting came over.
When the crowd saw Zhou Ting, their tone immediately changed: "You're not even surnamed Zhou yet, and you're already bullying others! Kill someone and pay with your life!"
Zhou Ting frowned.
Jiang Ziyao said to her, "Go first."
The crowd is obviously emotional, and words or violence will only intensify the conflict. Taking Bian Chengsi away is the best way to deal with it at the moment.
The on-duty personnel stayed behind to maintain order and they left this place of trouble.
Zhou Ting asked dissatisfiedly: "What's going on?"
Bian Chengsi was breathing rapidly. He felt that those people were right. If someone killed someone, he should pay with his life: "I... I don't know." He glanced at Zhou Ting and looked away with some despair.
Bang——!
Zhou Ting actually slapped him hard.
Bian Chengsi was stunned for a while, and his tears began to fall.
"Are you calm now?"
Zhou Ting asked coldly: "You have already reported your mess to my father. You are really great to cause trouble at this time, Bian Chengsi!"
Bian Chengsi shed tears: "I didn't mean it, I didn't expect..."
"It's been less than half an hour since the accident and you already found out about it. Isn't that too efficient?" Huo Chi curled his lips.
Zhou Ting turned around and glared at him: "If you think someone is playing tricks, just say it."
Jiang Ziyao said: "I do think someone is deliberately doing this. Apart from law enforcement officers, no one would go out at will. People who go out on missions would also go to Ms. Lin for a physical checkup regularly, so..."
"Why did an infection occur in the base?"
Zhou Ting said: "Do you think someone is controlling this?"
Jiang Ziyao replied: "I have no evidence."
The evidence might be in the infirmary, which he thought was a good secret location for the other party.
"We need to get this matter clear from beginning to end first. Bian Chengsi, you have to tell me all the details."
Zhou Ting called out, "Speak!"
Bian Chengsi replied: "I received a mission this morning, saying that Li Bing from the planting factory had been infected, and I was asked to deal with him before he attacked. After I found him, he was staring at someone's neck. I thought he wanted to eat people, so I attacked him first."
Huo Chi: "What a coincidence, you ran into him?"
Zhou Ting said: "What about the task document issued?"
Bian Chengsi took out a piece of paper from his pocket. The paper was crumpled and there was no writing on it when he opened it.
Jiang Ziyao and Huo Chi had no expectations from the beginning. When they saw the empty paper, Huo Chi clapped his hands: "Wow, it's still disappearing ink."
"I know you wouldn't kill someone on purpose." Zhou Ting said solemnly, "I've asked someone to investigate. This matter must be resolved, for both you and our Zhou family."
"Who do you want to ask to investigate?" Jiang Ziyao asked.
Zhou Ting asked back: "Do you think the people under me are not clean?"
Jiang Ziyao replied: "It's not directed at you."
"Someone in this base wants to kill him."
Zhou Ting was a little angry: "Who?!"
"I'm not sure. We were chased by professionals before we arrived at the base. What they were wearing was very similar to what the on-duty personnel were wearing."
"Does it have a name? Or a special ability?"
"Yes." Jiang Ziyao stared at her expression and said, "The leader is called Rosen."
Zhou Ting's expression changed. She quickly hid her surprise in her eyes and nodded: "I understand. I will check the origins of this team."
It seemed that she, like Zhou Zhe, was kept in the dark by her father. Jiang Ziyao sighed, Zhou Kangcheng was truly a born performer.
"Does the deceased have any family members?" Jiang Ziyao asked, "We must at least compensate the deceased first, and then find the real culprit."
"Li Bing?" Zhou Ting was silent for a while. "I know this person. He has no close friends around him. He is a biological researcher. The only person he has contact with is Doctor Ye. If Doctor Ye is willing to help you, this matter may be resolved quickly."
"Doctor Ye..." Jiang Ziyao paused. Suddenly, he had a headache. His nerves were throbbing with pain and his vision became blurry. He couldn't stand up straight and his back was bent. He was about to fall down.
Huo Chi noticed his discomfort and immediately steadied him: "Brother Jiang! What's wrong with you?"
"You don't feel well? Where does it hurt?"
"Wait." Jiang Ziyao took a deep breath. He knew this feeling, and it was even stronger than before. He squinted his eyes, and the words really appeared.
[After the operation failed, the angry saints decided to take revenge. This time, they chose to kill important people to Utopia.
The person they chose was Wang Yu, who had explosive firepower.
As a person with wide-ranging attacks and suitable for group battles, once she is dealt with, it will be easier for the Saints to conduct large-scale offensive battles, and they will soon have a powerful helper.
Wen Liao, a former violin artist, is now the king of aliens and zombies. 】
Internal and external troubles, the situation is devastating.
"Stop!" Jiang Ziyao's cheeks turned red, and the veins on his forehead bulged. He stopped the people who wanted to care about him and asked hurriedly, "Where is your captain?"
"We just left for the East Second Ring Road. The captain is alone." Zhou Ting answered truthfully: "There is intelligence that there are traces of mid-level alien species there. What do you know? About the captain?"
"Captain, is there something wrong?!"
"It's fine now, but we have to act quickly." Jiang Ziyao recovered and asked Bian Chengsi, "Where are the members of the first team? Do you know?"
"I saw it. It seemed to go in the direction of the infirmary."
Jiang Ziyao nodded: "Zhou Ting, get your team members together. There is movement from the Saints Society. Bian Chengsi, you go over there too. Don't think too much about anything now. There is only one enemy. Don't let them down. Do you understand?"
Bian Chengsi nodded.
"Where are you going?"
"Looking for the first team."
In order to safely strangle a high-level enemy, the four core members of the Saints' Society must all be on the field. The combat power of the second team alone is not enough.
Jiang Ziyao and Huo Chi rushed to the infirmary together, and they ran into the first team.
Zhou Zhe also walked towards him quickly and said, "I just happened to have something to talk to you about?"
"I'm sorry, Captain Zhou, now is not the time to have a heart-to-heart talk." Jiang Ziyao replied, "I just received a message that the core members of the Saints' Association want to hunt down Captain Wang."
Zhou Zhe paused: "Where is it?"
"Near the East Second Ring Road." Jiang Ziyao smiled mischievously: "I think everyone must be tired of the Saints Association. This time, how about a siege against them? Two law enforcement teams, do you dare to fight them?"
Zhou Zhe looked at his expression and said, "Of course."
