CHAPTER 36: CHAPTER 36: PEDOPHILE

Su Changxing forcefully pulled the person to a stop.

Zhu Wenwu felt the sharp pain from his shoulder and turned to look at the masked teenager in front of him, only to feel that he had reached the end, forcing a stiff smile: "Ha, is there something you need?"

Su Changxing snorted coldly and said viciously, "What do you think?"

The mask was a piece of torn cloth he had ripped from Sun Baisheng’s clothing, still stained with some blood.

Zhu Wenwu immediately began to cry and plead: "Murderer brother, I have the old above and the young below, and I’m still single right now, you can’t kill me."

Su Changxing looked a bit puzzled, Zhu Wenwu was at most twenty years old, and asked: "You’re so young and already have kids?"

Zhu Wenwu dryly replied, "A few years younger sister, she definitely can’t survive without me."

Su Changxing asked in confusion, "Your sister was dumped in the same place as you?"

Pedophile?

Zhu Wenwu immediately became vigilant, putting on a fierce look, and said: "Even if I die, I won’t betray my sister."

"······"

Su Changxing’s mouth twitched slightly, having an impulse to slash this man again; he inexplicably turned into a murderer, then from a murderer into a pedophile. Taking a deep breath, he said:

"Shut up."

Zhu Wenwu immediately stopped talking and stared blankly at Su Changxing.

Seeing Zhu Wenwu’s attitude, Su Changxing nodded and said: "First, delete the post you just published."

Zhu Wenwu, without any hesitation, resolutely took out his phone, deleted the post, and asked: "And then?"

He was a little excited, seeing a glimmer of hope for survival.

After thinking for a moment, Su Changxing said: "And then, uh, post a new one."

"Huh?" Zhu Wenwu was a bit dumbfounded, not knowing what Su Changxing wanted to do.

"I said, you type."

After a while, Zhu Wenwu posted a new message.

Xiaoxin: Everyone, it was a misunderstanding just now. That person is not a murderer, but a very good person, not only helping me clear zombies but also giving me something to eat.

Su Changxing looked at this post and nodded in satisfaction, thinking to himself that his reputation should be better now. He looked at Zhu Wenwu viciously, threatening:

"You’d better not change this post, nor post anything else about me. You should know, I’m not just a murderer, but also a pedophile."

Zhu Wenwu trembled involuntarily and smiled awkwardly: "Sure, sure, can I leave now, or is there something else to do?"

"Mm, go ahead."

Su Changxing waved his hand.

With permission granted, Zhu Wenwu slowly walked towards the street corner step by step, unsure if this murderer truly let him leave, or if it was just a trick.

In movies, it seemed that psychos liked to toy with their prey, simply put, murderers appeared to be maniacs, making their actions and mental state unpredictable. Maybe one second they decided to let him go, and the next, they would kill him again.

After passing the corner, he finally broke into a run, only stopping after a long distance, opening his phone to check the earlier post, which already had thousands of replies.

Reply 1: Poster, blink if you’re being threatened.

Reply 2: I don’t believe it, don’t lie to me.

Reply 3: The poster has conducted a shady deal with the murderer, be careful everyone.

······

Zhu Wenwu wanted to reply but hesitated and stopped. The words of that person still echoed in his ears, there’s no need to risk his life showing off. He’s not alone, he has a sister.

Besides, it seemed he might not even be a murderer. If he was, Zhu Wenwu would be dead by now, so besides exaggerating a bit and not giving him food, the post wasn’t that problematic.

Su Changxing looked at the replies in the post and sighed powerlessly; such matters only become murkier the more you try to clarify them. Fine, if they want to call him a murderer, so be it; he can always adopt a new identity later.

He scavenged through shops along the way, occasionally clearing zombies, not obtaining a map but gathering quite a bit of other supplies: four bags of cookies, three bags of instant noodles, a bag of jerky, a can of canned food, and a bottle of water.

By now, it was approaching dusk, the streets glowing golden, and the snarling zombies seemed much more docile.

Su Changxing started heading back, intending to return to the vicinity of the A01713 shop and exchange for the Speed Enhancement there tonight.

He arrived on a street beside A01713, slicing down the last zombie following him, which fell to the ground roaring.

After a whole day of uninterrupted hacking, he had killed eighty to ninety zombies, feeling his arms aching and the base of his thumb swollen.

Although it didn’t take too much effort to kill one zombie, after nearly a hundred, his arms were at their limit.

Leaning against the curb, Su Changxing relaxed his arms, observing the surroundings, planning to find a place to take a short nap to recover and prepare for the evening’s actions.

After searching around, he found a suitable spot on the third floor above a clothing store. The view from this position was excellent, allowing easy observation of the street, and it was conveniently close to the A01713 shop for action.

Su Changxing nimbly climbed into the room from the outer wall, where a musty, decaying smell hung in the air. The door was tightly closed, and there were no zombies inside; instead, a dried corpse lay there, surrounded by a number of bottles and jars.

"Starved to death, huh. Lucky enough not to turn into a zombie."

Su Changxing sat leaning in another corner of the room, not bothering to deal with the corpse, and instead exchanged the remaining five bottles of water and three loaves of bread from the discount shop, lest they get wiped out with the shop’s refresh.

It’s now 6:40, and the discount shop refreshes at 7:30.

Su Changxing intended to sell some food and water but decided to wait until after the shop’s refresh, to prevent the discount shop from having no food or water after the refresh.

If no food or water appeared, he wouldn’t sell these items in a while; instead, he would find a place to store them.

But if food and water continued to appear, he would definitely sell part of them, as having too many items on him would also hinder his actions.

Su Changxing laid a sleeping bag on the ground, preparing to catch a nap during this time. Perhaps due to exhaustion, he fell asleep as soon as he lay down.

Beep beep beep~

Su Changxing gradually woke up to his phone alarm. It was exactly 7:28, and outside the window, the night had already fallen. Though only asleep for forty minutes, he felt refreshed, all the day’s fatigue vanished.

While marveling at how useful his Superpower was, Su Changxing opened his phone, staring at the empty shop interface, waiting for the refresh.

The items in the discount shop were not just a cut above those in the Mysterious Shop, the Physical Enhancement Potion was an example, with a rating of precious, and comprehensively enhancing attributes.

7:30.

The empty interface flickered and a large number of items appeared, more varieties than before.
