Li Dahua was already sweating profusely with fear, and said in a panic, "Jiang Wu, I'll transfer it back to you right now, I'll give you ten times the amount!"
Jiang Wu suddenly rushed in front of him, grabbed his neck, and shoved him to the ground.
He scoffed, "I asked you if it's hot, what nonsense are you spouting?"
With his other hand, he searched him to make sure he had no weapons.
With Jiang Wu choking him, the dry apple in Li Dahua's hand fell to the ground.
Then he tried desperately to pry Jiang Wu's arms open with both hands.
He shouted, "Brother Jiang, Brother Jiang, please don't be angry, I was wrong! I'm not human! I was a real scoundrel before! Please calm down..."
Everyone else was stunned by what they saw, but no one stood up for Li Dahua.
Jiang Wu still wouldn't let go, coldly saying, "I keep my monthly food allowance to 600 yuan, but you deduct several hundred every time. Have you ever thought that while you drive luxury cars, live in luxury cars, and eat lavish meals, we people can only eat steamed buns and drink thin porridge every day? And you still want to deduct our hard-earned money?!"
Li Dahua was so frightened that his face turned pale and he broke out in a cold sweat.
He quickly shook his head and said, "Brother Jiang, I really didn't know you were working so hard. I only started to pay attention because I saw you earning almost 8,000 yuan a month..."
Jiang Wu was so angry he laughed.
He interrupted, saying, "I seize every opportunity to work overtime, and I do the hardest and most tiring work every day, and I still only earn less than 8,000 a month. You just have to say a few words and you'll deduct one-tenth of my salary every month on average?"
After saying that, Jiang Wu said with some distress, "Moreover, I have told you many times that I have a paralyzed sister to take care of, and I have to buy her several thousand yuan worth of medicine every month to maintain her bodily functions. In the past three years, I have even knelt down in front of you several times to beg you not to deduct my salary, but what did you do? You made sarcastic remarks? You even wanted to punish me?"
Too lazy to say anything more to Li Dahua, no matter how much he begged for mercy.
Jiang Wu looked up at Peng Gang and said, "Brother, this is a personal grudge between me and Li Dahua. Do you have any objections?"
Peng Gang gave Li Dahua a cold look before grinning at Jiang Wu and saying, "Brother Jiang, it seems your foreman is even more ruthless than mine. Do whatever you want with him."
Jiang Wu nodded and said, "Thank you! I'll take him with me now. Could you help me find a rope?"
Peng Gang rummaged through the cabinet and soon found a rope and walked over to Jiang Wu.
Jiang Wu helped tie Li Dahua up in a ball and then taped his mouth shut as he kept begging for mercy.
Jiang Wu stood up, looked at Peng Gang and said, "Hiding here is not a good solution. Sooner or later we will starve to death here without food or water. We might as well take advantage of the rain and the zombies' attention being on the rain to find an opportunity to run to the suburbs."
Peng Gang shook his head with a wry smile and said in a muffled voice, "Brother Jiang, this rain is too intense; even a little bit is unbearable."
Jiang Wu told Peng Gang about the route he had taken and the plastic wrap incident.
Then he let out a long sigh and said calmly, "I suggest you give it a try when the rain gets a little lighter. The success rate is not small, and when I leave later, I will kill more zombies on the route I mentioned."
After speaking, Jiang Wu paused for a few seconds, sighed, and continued, "In this apocalypse, humanity is reduced to less than one in ten. Let each one who can escape escape and preserve some of humanity's vitality."
Peng Gang fell silent.
Jiang Wu didn't say anything more, picked up Li Dahua and walked downstairs.
When Jiang Wu reached the stairwell, Peng Gang shouted, "Brother Jiang, I'll try again when the rain gets a little lighter!"
Jiang Wu turned and glanced at Peng Gang.
After thinking for a moment, he took all the remaining food out of his bag and put it on the ground, leaving himself only three pieces of Snickers and a pack of chicken drumsticks for emergencies.
Since I'm going home anyway and need to go to the pharmacy to pack medicine, I might as well empty my backpack and do someone a favor.
Seeing a large pile of high-calorie food and at least 20 or 30 kilograms of cooked meat on the ground, more than a dozen people were stunned.
Peng Gang clenched his fists and, just as Jiang Wu was about to enter the elevator, suddenly shouted at him, "Brother Jiang, you're a really good person! Why don't you lead our team? We'll all listen to you!"
Jiang Wu shook his head and smiled, "I have more important things to do. We'll meet again someday."
After saying that, he carried Li Dahua, who was tied up like a dumpling, downstairs.
Upon reaching the exit of the underground parking garage, Li Dahua began to twist and turn wildly.
Jiang Wu put him on the ground and checked his own rain gear again.
After confirming that everything was correct, they then tore off the tape on Li Dahua's mouth.
In a panic, Li Dahua frantically begged for mercy, saying, "Brother Jiang! I'm not human! I'm an animal! But I don't deserve to die, just have some of my wages deducted!..."
Jiang Wu listened to his pleas for mercy for several minutes with a half-smile before slowly saying, "Every time I beg for mercy from you, you arrange the hardest work for me the next day. How could I dare to spare your life after I've taken my revenge on someone as unreasonable and vindictive as you?"
Li Dahua shook his head frantically: "No! No! No! You can take your revenge as you please, just spare my life, and I promise to treat you like my father from now on! I'll do anything for you! I just beg you to spare my life!"
Jiang Wu drew his machete and said calmly, "You said it yourself, you can retaliate as you please, it'll cost you 5,000 yuan a cut."
After saying that, he slashed Li Dahua's leg with a knife, and Li Dahua screamed in pain.
Jiang Wu then made four more cuts on other parts of Li Dahua's body, turning him into a bloody mess.
However, none of these were critical issues, and Li Dahua was in good spirits.
Despite the pain, he frantically begged for mercy, "Five cuts are done, let me go, Brother Jiang, I promise I'll stay far away from you from now on."
Jiang Wu shrugged and said with a half-smile, "This is just you deducting money from my pay, but what about the mental torment you've inflicted on me over the past three years? Do you know how painful it was for me every time you deducted money from me? I really wanted to skin you alive! Let you make one last contribution for Peng Gang and the others."
After saying that, Jiang Wu immediately sealed Li Dahua's mouth and dragged him out.
Outside, there was still thunder and lightning, but the heavy rain seemed to be subsiding.
Jiang Wu strolled in the rain, while Li Dahua trembled and wailed wildly, tormented by the endless raindrops.
Like a maggot that keeps writhing.
The blood all over his body was washed away by the rain, then diluted, and finally disappeared.
Several zombies, still able to smell Li Dahua's blood despite the heavy rain, quickly pounced on him.
Jiang Wu threw Li Dahua to the ground and swiftly killed all the zombies that came running at him.
Only after confirming that no other zombies were coming did he carry Li Dahua and continue forward.
He planned to use Li Dahua's blood to lure any zombies that might be nearby, thus clearing a path for Peng Gang and his group.
As long as you don't touch his sore spot or threaten his survival.
He can do what he can for others.
Especially when a promise has already been made.
He values his promises very much.
Just like when Su Ziyu was born, he made a promise to take good care of her.
For that promise.
He was willing to suffer himself to take care of the paralyzed Su Ziyu.
