Chapter 324: The Mysterious Masked Man



"This story all started a year ago. It wasn't long after the red rain started, and zombies were just starting to run rampant. Not only outside, but even within the army, zombies appeared. I was terribly anxious at the time. Watching the soldiers outside tearing people apart, I felt so heartbroken. I couldn't think of a solution, and I was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

Giving orders to capture them was futile, but their resistance proved useless. Not only did it fail to control the zombies, it actually increased their numbers. Watching the soldiers being pounced on one by one, I felt powerless. I'd never seen anything like it before. They'd bite anyone they caught, and then they'd crawl back to their feet in seconds, like someone resurrected from the dead. It was terrifying. I called a meeting with everyone to come up with a plan, but it was useless. Not only did we not come up with one, but we ended up losing our lives.

"I felt that I was unworthy of being a soldier. Unexpectedly, one night a few days later, a man suddenly appeared in front of me. He took my wife and daughter and forced me to surrender. I resisted at the time, and saw with my own eyes that he cut off my wife's hand in an extremely cruel way. He also tortured my dying wife to death. But even so, I did not agree to his request. However, that devil turned his attention to my daughter. Just when he was about to commit violence against my daughter, I agreed to his request." Commander Wen lowered his head in frustration, and even his voice was choked.

"What's your name? What do you do?" Shangguan Wan looked at Commander Wen who lowered his head and felt that he was very pitiful. He was not only a soldier, but also a husband and a father. He gave up his wife's life for his military duty, but he could not give up his daughter's life. Even if such a thing happened to her, she would agree to it early and save her wife and children.

This can be understood as excusable, but when he cooked afterwards, he was probably so submissive that he forgot his own identity.

"I don't know. He's very mysterious. I've never seen his true face. Whenever he appears, he always wears a silver-white mask. But from observing him, I think he's someone who often carries a gun."

Shangguan Wan's mind suddenly flashed to a person's face. This person was very cold. She had met him once in a previous life. When they passed by, she could feel the coldness emanating from him. However, the mask was unique, and she couldn't forget it even if she wanted to. Could it be that person?

"How do you usually contact each other?" Han Lie asked in a deep voice. All the people flashed through his mind, but he couldn't remember such a person, unless he deliberately concealed his appearance. Was he his enemy from some time ago? After all, people like them are easily hated by others.

"He was the one who contacted me. Someone would come to me and tell me what to do, and if I didn't do it, he would kill my daughter."

"So what else did he ask you to do besides research viruses?"

"And your whereabouts."

"Why?" Shangguan Wan was puzzled. After all, she had never seen such a person in her life.

Could it be Han Lie’s enemy?

Shangguan Wan glanced at Han Lie, and when she saw Han Lie shaking his head, she knew that this man was probably a very secretive person.

No matter who he is against, as long as it is not good for them, they will never let him go.

"Then when Grandpa Han Lie was attacked last time, did you receive his instructions?" Shangguan Wan suddenly remembered the first time she met Grandpa Han Lie, who said someone was targeting him. Could this be related?

"Yes, for some reason that day, he got very angry and insisted on getting rid of Old Man Han." Commander Wen recalled the man's anger that day and the cruelty of being kicked out. He really lay in bed for a long time before he could get up.

"So this time too?"

"yes."

Shangguan Wan directly determined that this person had a great grudge against Han Lie, so she could start investigating from Han Lie's side, and there would always be clues.

The soldier in the house next door listened to the whole thing and suddenly fell silent. It turned out that he really wanted to harm someone.

It’s just that this process is painful.

When they looked at the lone eagle, they felt admiration from the bottom of their hearts. Perhaps what they were doing now was salvation.

Everyone lowered their heads and fell into deep thought.
