The woman and the boy were both orphans from an orphanage. The woman's name was Yan Ling, and the boy's name was Yan Han.
The orphanage they were in was privately owned.
The dean wasn't a rich man either.
However, he loves children very much and will give everything he has to help children in need.
Yan Ling thought the dean was foolish. He could have lived a good life, but he insisted on suffering poverty and hunger for the sake of unrelated people. She didn't want to live that kind of life, so she dropped out of school early to work. She worked several jobs at that time.
One of his jobs was as a sparring partner at a boxing club.
At first, she would always get beaten up by people who practiced boxing, but later the president of the boxing club discovered her talent and she started practicing amateur boxing.
She won a lot of money through boxing.
They also lived the life of the wealthy that they had always longed for.
The dean was furious when he found out she was playing amateur boxing and ordered her to stop immediately.
But at that time, she didn't think there was anything wrong with her playing boxing; instead, she thought the problem lay with the dean.
Until she was asked by the president of the boxing club to throw a fight.
Although she loves money, she has her bottom line; she doesn't agree with fixed boxing matches.
She was beaten half to death by the boxing club members, and it was the director who took her back to the orphanage to take care of her.
Yan Ling was puzzled at the time. She had clearly talked back to the director and abandoned the orphanage, so why did the director still save her?
The dean replied, "Because you are our family."
Because of the words "You are our family," Yan Ling never left the orphanage again. After she recovered from her injuries, she stayed at the orphanage and took care of the children with the director until the apocalypse broke out and the orphanage was destroyed by the masked man.
To save the children, the dean went out alone to negotiate with the masked man, sacrificing his own life in the process.
In an attempt to buy time so that his younger siblings could leave safely, Yan Ling was severely injured by the masked man and nearly died.
She crawled out of a pile of corpses to seek revenge on the ghost mask.
Yan Ling was very unhappy when he heard that they couldn't wear the Ghost Mask Man's clothes: "If we don't wear the Ghost Mask Man's clothes, how can we get into prison, how can we kill the Ghost Mask Man and take revenge?"
Qiao An'an pointed to the truck outside the door: "We can hide in the truck bed and have them open the back door after they park the truck. We can make our move when it's late at night."
Yan Ling thought the suggestion was acceptable and nodded at Qiao An'an with satisfaction: "As long as we can get in, that's fine."
However, Shen Zhou pointed out that not only were girls not suitable to wear this outfit, but even he and Fang Yuyang were not suitable to wear it.
Qiao An'an and the others were not quite clear after hearing this: "Why?"
Shen Zhou replied, "The boss they're talking about is someone we know."
Fang Yuyang nodded: "We used to live in the same dormitory as Wu Jianxiong. When the shelter was being built, we worked together. Even when we wore the Ghost Mask Man's clothes and masks, he could still recognize us at a glance, just like we recognized his car at a glance that day."
Chi Ming was already very resistant to destroying the masked men's lair, and now that he heard Chen Zhou say this, he was even more worried: "If you can't do it, neither can we. Their leader must know his own men!"
Yan Han said he wouldn't recognize him: "The Ghost Mask Man boss has nearly fifty Ghost Mask Men under his command. In order to keep those who are arrested and imprisoned from working, we usually wear Ghost Mask Men to intimidate them and don't show our faces much."
Moreover, these masked figures are not fixed.
Every time a new recruit is brought in from outside, the boss gives them a choice before killing them: either be shot or join the team.
If you wish to join, you must choose one person from the masked man's team as your challenger. If the newcomer can kill the masked man they chose, they can become the new masked man.
The leader of the masked men couldn't possibly remember every face.
After Yan Han rejected this question, Chi Ming immediately raised another one: "You came with about ten people in total. Chen Zhou and Fang Yuyang are not participating here. Women cannot wear your clothes, so there are only three of us left. There were about ten people when you came, and only four of you left. How are you going to explain this to the people in the prison?"
Even Yan Han didn't know how to answer this question.
Shen Zhou said, "That's easy. When the time comes, you can tie me up and take me to prison, and say that you encountered us, that your men killed several of your men, and that you captured me."
Li Jianguo was very worried after hearing this: "We are already few in number, and you are planning to tie yourself up and hand yourself over to the people in prison?"
Shen Zhou was certain: "Didn't Yan Han say that the leader of the masked men would let them choose whether to be killed or join?"
Li Jianguo realized that Chen Zhou wanted to take a gamble.
Fang Yuyang couldn't bear to risk the boat alone: "I'll go with you."
Although Shen Zhou told Li Jianguo that he would choose to join after he went in, Wu Jianxiong and they had always been at odds, and he was not sure if Wu Jianxiong would give him a choice like he did for the others.
He's all alone, so taking a risk is nothing to him.
Fang Yuyang has an elderly mother to care for and a pregnant wife to raise. He couldn't let Fang Yuyang take the risk, so he directly refused Fang Yuyang: "You stay in the back of the carriage with Qiao An'an and the others."
Fang Yuyang objected: "Why?"
Shen Zhou: "Wu Jianxiong is very perceptive. If the two of us are captured by the four masked men, he will definitely become suspicious."
The group collected the masked man's guns and ammunition, and then cleared away the zombie corpses and the masked man's corpse from the road.
Li Jianguo, Qi Feng, and Chi Ming found masked figures whose physiques were similar to their own, dressed them in their clothes, and surprisingly, they didn't look out of place at all.
