Chapter 140 We live in a society governed by law.



(Take a dip in the water and relax.)

"Wang Han." Li Tiezhu was still worried about Wang Han facing these white men alone. These white men were tall and strong, and even though Wang Han was 1.9 meters tall, he couldn't fight them all. He was afraid Wang Han would get hurt, so he quickly followed him out. But the first thing he saw was several white men with their heads already dismembered at Wang Han's feet. Li Tiezhu froze for a moment, his face turning deathly pale. Beheading! This was far more terrifying than the shootings he had seen before. His worry was justified, but it wasn't that Wang Han had gotten hurt; rather, Wang Han had killed them in the short time he had been chasing after them.

"Shh..." Just as Li Tiezhu was about to scream in fright, Wang Han quickly covered Li Tiezhu's mouth with one hand and pulled him away from the small door of the wooden house with the other, whispering, "Don't make a sound, it won't be good if your sister finds out. Go inside and keep your sister company, don't let her find out. I'll handle the body here."

"Hmm." Li Tiezhu nodded, hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice, "Wang Han, can you please not kill people so casually next time?"

"Why? Shouldn't they die for doing this?" Wang Han asked curiously.

“This is a society governed by law. If they are guilty, they should be punished by law,” Li Tiezhu said softly. “If you kill them like this, you will also be…”

"Uh..." Wang Han was speechless upon hearing this. He had gotten used to killing people in the previous three worlds, and no one could stop him. Moreover, because they were all chaotic times, he had never used any legal means. He had completely overlooked this issue after arriving in the modern world. (The protagonist has been in this world for over twenty years.)

"Haha, I'll be more careful next time." Wang Han laughed awkwardly, though it was unclear how much he would actually pay attention.

"Go inside quickly. I'll take care of the body. Don't let your sister notice anything unusual. Just say those white men are gone. Pack your things and take her to the hospital for treatment. I'll pay for the medical expenses." Wang Han patted Li Tiezhu on the shoulder and injected some life energy into his body, which quickly restored his complexion.

"Really?" Li Tiezhu asked excitedly upon hearing this, temporarily ignoring the issue of Wang Han's murder.

"Really," Wang Han said affirmatively. "Hurry up and pack your things. I'll call you when I'm done. Don't let your sister notice anything unusual."

"Thank you..." Li Tiezhu said gratefully, turning around to run into the small wooden house.

After Li Tiezhu went inside, Wang Han first put the body into his backpack space, and then used earth magic to cover up the bloodstains.

After Wang Han disposed of the body, he waited outside.

"It's all done." Not long after, the shadow clone that had been created earlier appeared in front of Wang Han and handed him a file bag. After Wang Han took the file bag, the shadow clone canceled itself, and the shadow clone's memories were fed back to Wang Han.

The document bag contained identification documents obtained by Wang Han's shadow clone using illusion magic at the police station, as well as some US dollars they had handed over. As for the corpses, they were disintegrated along with the bloodstained ground using dust escape techniques.

After opening the document bag and taking out the US dollars, I put everything else in my backpack.

"Let's go," Wang Han said, turning and walking into the cabin to greet Li Tiezhu and his sister.

"..." Looking at Li Tiezhu, who was supporting Li Sisi on one side and carrying large and small bags on his back, even two small stools and a small stove were tied with ropes and hung in front and behind him, Wang Han was speechless. If he hadn't already run out of things to carry, he probably would have taken the table with him.

"Tiezhu," Wang Han said helplessly, "Just bring what you need and what's important. Don't bring anything else you don't need."

“These are all necessary,” Li Tiezhu said very seriously.

"All of them?" Wang Han came to Li Tiezhu's side and took the stool off his body.

“These two stools are for sitting on, we can’t sit on the ground,” Li Tiezhu quickly said.

“There are plenty of seats in the hospital, we don’t need them.” Wang Han tossed the two stools aside and then took the small stove off Li Tiezhu’s body.

"For cooking," Li Tiezhu quickly replied.

“You won’t go hungry, and cooking is not allowed in the hospital.” Wang Han said, throwing away the stove and reaching for the package on Li Tiezhu’s back under Li’s terrified gaze.

"If we can't cook, these vegetable leaves are useless." Wang Han took off the package, rummaged through it, and took out the bag of vegetable leaves and rice, then threw it aside.

"These clothes are too old and don't keep out the wind or keep out the cold." After looking at the clothes and blankets inside, Wang Han threw them out as well.

"Don't throw away your clothes! If you do, you won't have anything to change into. And what about your blankets? What will you use to cover yourself with at night? Winter is almost here!" Li Tiezhu quickly stopped him. If he hadn't been supporting his sister, he probably would have picked them up himself.

"Brother, let's just throw them away. Those clothes are really worn out, and the hospital has blankets too," Li Sisi advised, seeing the distress in Li Tiezhu's eyes. She was also a little reluctant to part with them. However, she knew that Wang Han must have had his reasons for losing them, and if there was really no other way, they could just come back and retrieve them.

"You really are a stubborn person, made of steel! I'll take you to buy new ones, and you can live with me from now on," Wang Han said with a wry smile. If he hadn't run into these two fellow villagers on his way back, Wang Han would have really wanted to abandon them as well.

…………………………………………

In the end, Wang Han threw away almost all of Li Tiezhu's belongings, and carried his sister on his back. His sister took the money and passport, which were essential items.

"Alright, now you can carry your sister on your back," Wang Han said, clapping his hands. Then he patted Li Sisi's shoulder, infusing him with some life force, and said, "Having a brother like this must be quite tough for you."

“My brother has worked much harder than me,” Li Sisi said, leaning her head against Li Tiezhu’s back.

"Let's go," Wang Han said.

……………………………………………………

"The traces have been specially treated; this was probably done by someone with special abilities." In the alley where Wang Han met Li Tiezhu, several policemen looked at the square patches on the ground and walls that seemed to have vanished into thin air and said.

"Captain, there's no one at any of the six or seven houses around here." An officer came out of a house and said, "The neighbors don't know anything. Only the residents further away said they heard gunshots around noon."

"Report it immediately, secure the scene, and wait for a specialist to investigate." The man who seemed to be the team leader said, "We just don't know how many people died. Check the surrounding surveillance footage immediately and investigate how many people are missing."
