The security guard, covered in blood, stammered out the words with his mouth agape.
However, Shen Hu ignored his words and struck the man's legs with the stick again.
With a "crack," the sound of a bone breaking rang out.
The middle-aged security guard immediately cried out in pain, clutching his leg and screaming desperately.
Shen Hu was stunned for a moment, then twisted his neck and made a terrifying sound. Then he walked up to the other person.
"Tell me or not, or I'll break your other leg too, and then you'll just have to stay in your own house and rest."
At this point, the security guard's psychological defenses had been completely destroyed by the other party. He quickly explained the whole story of the pack of cigarettes, while Shen Hu just squinted and looked around.
"Great, a few newcomers have even arrived, and they even have this kind of cigarette. Looks like we missed a big fish."
After speaking, Shen Hu looked down at the other person again.
"Tell me quickly, when did those people give you the cigarettes, and how many of them were there in total?"
The security guard began to recall carefully, holding up two fingers.
“I didn’t pay much attention at the time. There were probably more than twenty people. Before they left, I told them that they could hide at the border of District Nine for a while. They probably went there without hesitation. At that time, there were less than ten minutes left before the major power outage.”
After stroking his chin and pacing back and forth a few times, Shen Hu then calculated the distance again.
“They must not have gone far. They should be on this road. Quickly bring people to search for them bit by bit.”
Lu Yuan had heard these words from a distance, and cold sweat broke out on his back.
"Damn it. I didn't expect these people to be so ruthless. We can't escape this place."
Then Lu Yuan turned his head and glanced at everyone.
"Should we charge forward or retreat?"
Xiao Shan wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, a hint of fear on her face.
"How about... we just retreat?"
However, Han Wen shook his head.
"No, we can't retreat. If we retreat, we won't escape. There are too many of them, and they will definitely catch up with us by vehicle. We are not familiar with this place. If there is a force like theirs entrenched in other places, we may not be able to leave here at all."
Lu Yuan nodded silently. Han Wen was right. Every region in this area had its own local tyrants. If they ran to the next location to hide, they might encounter another group of people, and then they would really be left with no way out.
