Chapter 25 The Suffocating Truth
One was the short-haired man who had just sprayed alcohol. He said he had no appetite.
The other one is Xue Rong.
Hu Zi didn't give up, and chased after the short-haired man, muttering, "No, no, the packaging has been opened, it would be a waste if we don't eat it."
When Xue Rong heard Hu Zi say that he had opened the package, his expression changed slightly, and he looked obviously a little unnatural.
The short-haired man couldn't resist Hu Zi's persuasion and finally ate the jam bread.
Hu Zi held the only remaining piece of jam bread and turned to look at Xue Rong: "Xue Rong, come and have some too. Food is so precious nowadays, how can we waste it?"
Xue Rong's eyes were heavy: "I won't eat this. I'm allergic to blueberries."
Hu Zi was surprised: "Allergic to blueberries? How do you know it's blueberries?"
Before Xue Rong could speak, Hu Zi said, "But this isn't blueberry jam, it's strawberry jam. Try it if you don't believe me."
Xue Rong frowned, his tone a little impatient: "I don't care about your blueberries and strawberries! I don't eat them anyway."
Hu Zi smiled and was unmoved. He picked up the bread and stuffed it into his mouth: "Hey, try it. It's delicious. Smell how fragrant it is..."
Xue Rong dodged for a long time, but finally couldn't help but slapped his hand away, knocking the bread in Hu Zi's hand to the ground.
"What are you pretending for! Do you think I don't know there's something added to the bread?"
In an instant, everyone's eyes looked over.
Some of those who had eaten half of their food were staring blankly at the bread in their hands, not knowing whether to eat it or not.
Hu Zi scratched his head, looking confused: "What was added?"
"Added..." Xue Rong's eyes turned, "Of course it's the zombies' blood!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience was in an uproar.
Lu Yuanze stood up when he heard this and looked at Xue Rong coldly: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Xue Rong gritted his teeth and pointed at Hu Zi: "I saw it with my own eyes. You mixed zombie blood into these breads! That woman turned into a zombie after eating this bread!"
Chen Qianxing, who was eating bread with big mouthfuls just now, froze and his mind went blank.
There's... zombie blood in the bread?
He subconsciously turned his head to look at Yan Chu and Gu Qinyuan beside him.
However, the two men seemed to have not heard Xue Rong's words at all. They watched the show and ate the bread in their hands without stopping.
Seeing his uneasy face, Yan Chu said with a smile: "Don't worry, eat it, the bread is fine."
Chen Qianxing: “……?”
He suddenly realized that this was a trap to lure the snake out of its hole.
Over there, Lu Yuanze frowned and confronted Xue Rong: "You said you saw it, when and where, please tell me clearly."
Xue Rong stared at Hu Zi with a sinister look: "This afternoon, on the shelf, I saw him secretly use a syringe to put zombie blood into the bread and jam, and then gave the bread to you to eat!"
The short-haired man's face turned pale when he heard this. He remembered the scene where Hu Zi forced the bread on him, and then he looked down at the half-eaten bread in his hand.
The sweet and sticky reddish-brown jam was sandwiched between the bread.
He suddenly felt nauseous and rushed out, covering his mouth.
After listening to Xue Rong's words, Lu Yuanze closed his eyes. When he opened them again, there was only coldness in his eyes.
"You may have forgotten that I was the one who got the bread distributed to everyone this afternoon, and then Hu Zi distributed it to everyone."
Lu Yuanze mercilessly exposed Xue Rong's words, and his face flushed red: "Doesn't this prove that you two are in cahoots!"
After all, the others were not fools, and at this time they finally realized that something was wrong.
"Xue Rong, what are you talking about? How could Brother Lu do something like that?"
"Exactly. If he really wanted to harm someone, why would he go to so much trouble to rescue me?"
"What on earth do you want to do by slandering Brother Lu and Hu Zi?"
"So...is there anything wrong with the bread? I ate it all..."
Listening to the others' repeated questions, Xue Rong curled his lips and gave a chilling laugh: "Believe it or not, all of you who eat bread will die anyway."
Hu Zi was silent for a long time, then he put the jam bread that Xue Rong refused to eat into his mouth and took a bite.
"Do you really think you tampered with these breads?"
Xue Rong slowly frowned, his eyes fixed on Hu Zi: "What did you say?"
Hu Zi sighed and said, "I said, these are not the breads you touched. I didn't lie to you. This is strawberry jam from the jam can, not blueberry jam."
Xue Rong's eyelids twitched.
The eyes of everyone around him were instantly filled with suspicion and shock.
At this moment, he suddenly realized that he had been fooled.
Xue Rong's face twisted for a moment, and he gritted his teeth and said, "You fucking lied to me!"
Hu Zi stared at Xue Rong in silence for a long time, then laughed like a sigh.
"Xue Rong, for so long, you never cared about how the zombies in the mall disappeared, nor how Brother Lu and I made sure no new zombies broke in. You only cared about your own life or death.
You don't want Lu Ge to bring more people in, so you deliberately made these breads, waiting for someone to mutate, so that you can control the power of speech and take the opportunity to drive Lu Ge and me away, right?"
Everyone looked at Xue Rong in shock. He did such an outrageous thing just for his own voice?
Just for such a small matter, he killed a person?
Someone angrily yelled, "She has no grudge against you, are you crazy?"
"How could you do this? What's the difference between this and murder?"
Xue Rong has calmed down now and is no longer as hysterical as before.
He sneered and admitted what he had done: "Yeah, so what?"
Lu Yuanze grabbed his collar fiercely, his eyes cold: "Do you want to die?"
"What? You want to kill me?" Xue Rong tilted his neck towards him. "Go ahead, come on. Do you dare to really kill someone?"
Lu Yuanze clenched his fists tightly, and the veins on the back of his hands were bulging.
After the two of them were in a stalemate for a long time, Lu Yuanze let him go, then clenched his fists tightly and punched him with all his strength!
Xue Rong was beaten to the ground, with blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.
He struggled to get up from the ground, rubbed the corner of his mouth, and then spat out a mouthful of blood, looking at Lu Yuanze provocatively: "That's it?"
A hint of gloom appeared in Lu Yuanze's eyes, and he punched him hard again.
Even though he had killed so many zombies in the apocalypse, Lu Yuanze was unable to actually kill anyone.
After all, once someone is killed, the nature of the crime changes.
Looking at Xue Rong, who was beaten black and blue by him, Lu Yuanze's eyes were heavy: "Even if I don't kill you, I won't let you stay here any longer."
"Oh? You want to chase me away?" Xue Rong laughed disdainfully. "Sure, don't forget, I have the key to the mall's main door. If you dare to touch me, I will open all the doors of the mall and let all the zombies in!"
"you--!!"
