Chapter 290 Facing the Contradictions



For spatial ability users, the supplies stored in their spatial dimension will be lost upon the user's death.

Like now, Liu Dandan is a space-time ability user. But now that she's dead, her space will also disappear. All the supplies stored in her space will vanish with her death.

There's a reason why everyone is so lenient and protective of her.

Not all people with superpowers are like Li Xiao, who can face zombies without fear of death.

Just like Liu Dandan, who considers herself a space ability user, she doesn't need to fight and has never thought about fighting.

She has protection and will not be threatened.

Today, while out with someone, I ran into Li Xiao, who doesn't play by the rules.

Li Xiao didn't think there was anything wrong with spatial ability users, but others might not think so at that time.

They valued spatial ability users too much, which allowed spatial ability users like Liu Dandan to lose the will to protect themselves.

They only thought about needing protection, and never considered improving their own physical fitness or having ways to save their own lives.

If she had, Liu Dandan wouldn't have been so terrified at the last moment, only caring about begging for mercy and disregarding her pride.

Now that things have come to this, the person is dead, and there's no going back.

Zhang Kaisheng was in a dilemma; he was in the wrong, but this outcome was not what he wanted.

"What exactly do you want? Captain Zhang, your men instigated this escape from the base themselves. According to the base's rules, as long as the fighting doesn't happen inside the base, it doesn't matter where it happens or whether it results in life or death; you'll bear the consequences yourself. What? You want to try something else?"

Yu Yanbin had already understood from Zhang Kaisheng's every move that he wanted to get something back.

The question is, is it possible?

The answer is definitely no.

You reap what you sow.

Li Xiao didn't want to be watched anymore and wanted to leave feeling a little dejected.

Cheng Shaolin could tell from Li Xiao's expression that she was annoyed with the place.

However, Zhang Kaisheng was still blocking the way, neither saying he would leave nor what he wanted to do, which was somewhat annoying.

Cheng Shaolin and Li Xiao exchanged a glance, and Cheng Shaolin found it quite amusing.

He took Li Xiao's hand and pulled her behind him, preparing to leave.

"Don't leave! You're not allowed to leave!" A loud shout stopped Cheng Shaolin from moving.

Cheng Shaolin's smiling face instantly changed, turning as cold as ice.

A sharp gaze shot straight at the speaker, freezing him in place.

It felt as if countless sharp blades were slicing through his body. The speaker dared not move, and even the rest of his words were stuck in his throat.

"What? I can't leave? What right do you have to stop me?"

The cold, chilling words swept over the person opposite them, giving them the illusion of being slowly tortured.

The man was intimidated by Cheng Shaolin's gaze and took a step back, his words becoming somewhat evasive.

"No, no. It's not this..."

"Then what do you mean?" Cheng Shaolin's eyes flashed coldly as he slightly raised his head and looked down at the other person.

Seeing this, Zhang Kaisheng stepped forward and shielded the teammate behind him.

"Deputy Captain Cheng, what are you trying to do?"

Cheng Shaolin scoffed, "What do I want to do? Or what do you want to do?"

Zhang Kaisheng gritted his teeth and stared intently at Cheng Shaolin. The man, who usually looked honest and simple, now appeared somewhat ferocious.

Yu Yanbin chuckled softly. He had previously thought that Zhang Kaisheng had some redeeming qualities, at least he wouldn't cause trouble.

But now his impression is that this person is only good at protecting his teammates, and nothing else.

Constantly encountering problems and lacking any decision-making ability is a bit boring.

"It's nothing, we're leaving now." Yu Yanbin gave Cheng Shaolin a look, and Cheng Shaolin understood. He didn't want to get entangled with this group any longer and wanted to take Li Xiao back to rest.

Li Xiao, however, felt that these people wouldn't let them leave so easily.

Sure enough, I was cornered again.

This time, they were blocked off the way again, and not just with words.

Li Xiao sighed and looked at Cheng Shaolin.

"elder brother."

Cheng Shaolin was furious when he saw the helplessness on Li Xiao's face.

He didn't want to delay any longer, and asked coldly, "What do you want? Get to the point."

"Don't think you can just leave like this. The people who killed us don't expect to get away so easily."

This is the other person besides the one who was frightened by Cheng Shaolin.

They speak even more rudely, and have the potential to become cannon fodder.

"Ha, so what if she's dead? She brought it on herself. What? You think you can stop me from leaving? Captain Zhang, is this your idea? Very well."

Zhang Kaisheng hadn't thought of it that way at first, but after being repeatedly subjected to the contemptuous looks from Yu Yanbin and Cheng Shaolin, his thoughts began to wander in other directions, and he decided not to return to District One.

Zhang Kaisheng's eyes turned sinister, and the pretense of honesty vanished from his face. Only the truth and hypocrisy beneath the surface remained.

"But you knew she was a space-age ability user in our team, and you still killed her."

Before he could continue, Yu Yanbin stopped him.

"You knew perfectly well that she pushed our teammates to the front to block the zombies, yet you said nothing. Captain Zhang, didn't you know?"

Yu Yanbin was no longer polite, saying bluntly, "Don't say any of that. She was in the wrong first by trying to kill someone, so she can't blame anyone else for her death. What other fault are you trying to find?"

He paused for a second, then continued, "If we want to leave, you can't stop us."

These words enraged Zhang Kaisheng, who gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, fine. Very well. Then let's see if you can actually leave."

Cheng Shaolin pulled Li Xiao behind him, blocking her in front of him.

Cheng Shaolin knew that Zhang Kaisheng and the others were looking at Li Xiao in a strange way.

Although it was because Li Xiao was the one who killed Liu Dandan, there was something deeper hidden in his eyes.

Li Xiao herself knew exactly what these people were thinking.

Simply put, she is a spatial ability user.

Without a space-age ability user, she, as a space-age ability user, becomes a bargaining chip for making demands.

Pshaw, do you think you're destined for that?

I'm so easily manipulated.

It seems that you can't judge a book by its cover. Even if you've spent so much time together, you still haven't seen through the true nature beneath the surface.

"Hand her over, and we'll still be friends."

Cheng Shaolin and Yu Yanbin were both taken aback.

A little dumbfounded.

Is this person out of their mind? Or is there some serious illness?

Why is what you're saying so hard to understand?

Li Xiao was stunned, then chuckled.

"Are you here to be funny?"

Zhang Kaisheng turned his gaze to Li Xiao, having always thought of her as just a pretty vase, a vase with spatial abilities.

Just like Liu Dandan.

It seems I'm wrong; this woman is completely different from Liu Dandan.
