Chapter 1492: Kill or Not?

The night covered the earth silently like a thick black veil.

Residential living area, outside Building 29.

The lights of more than a dozen vehicles flickered in the darkness like will-o'-the-wisps. The dazzling light made the pupils of the survivors standing in front shrink.

Their eyes were full of tension and fear, like trapped beasts, looking around but unable to find a way out.

There was a suffocating sense of oppression in the air, and their breathing was rapid, as if they were racing against death with every breath.

Under the car lights, their shadows were twisted and weird, lengthening and shortening as the light swayed.

Li Zhengping looked at the list of names in his hand and shouted:

"People from Twilight Castle, stand on the right!"

"Others, stay where you are and don't move!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Song Tianyi and others looked horrified and called out the people from Twilight Castle alone, indicating that these people were coming for them.

"Sir, we haven't done anything!" Lin Zhongzheng saw that it was Li Zhengping who had been here before and shouted loudly: "Didn't you say a few hours ago that as long as we didn't violate the regulations, you wouldn't cause trouble for us? Why now."

"Stop talking nonsense and come out quickly." Li Zhengping shouted sharply.

Some people from the Twilight Castle in the crowd thought it was Zhou Chuan's incident that caused the current situation, so they complained softly to the dead Zhou Chuan.

"It's all that Zhou Chuan's fault. I already said I would kick him out of the team. Such a loser Lin Zhongzheng insists on protecting him."

"Yes, this bastard Zhou Chuan is so damned. He tried to kill two people on the way here, but now his grandson is dead and he's still hurting us."

"."

The Castle of Twilight was named after they arrived at the trading bazaar. They had never given it a fixed name before.

However, when entering the trading market, teams of more than five people must have a title and register.

Otherwise, register separately.

On the contrary, the old survivors like Betting on Dogs breathed a sigh of relief.

They gradually realized that maybe the Oil City combatants were not here to cause trouble for them.

In the crowd, not all people from the Twilight Castle came out. Some people stayed here motionless in fear.

Li Zhengping counted the number of people on the right and found that five people were missing.

So he picked up the roster and called the names.

"Lin Zhongzheng."

Lin Zhongzheng quickly raised his hand,

"Song Tianyi."

"Song Juanjuan."

When the names were being read, three people could not resist the pressure. They raised their hands and ran dejectedly from the left to the right.

There are still two people standing in the queue on the left and not coming out.

Even when Li Zhengping read their names, the two men did not move.

Ding Meng frowned when he saw this situation.

Tread!

He walked up to Lin Zhongzheng, drew his gun, and pointed it at Lin Zhongzheng's forehead.

"come out!"

He was threatening the two old survivors to come out. If they didn't come out, he would shoot Lin Zhongzheng to death.

After all, this Lin Zhongzheng is their leader. For the leader's life, they should also come out.

Ding Meng obviously misjudged those two people, and he also misjudged Twilight Castle.

One second.

Two seconds.

Ten seconds passed, and the two still didn't come out.

Although this group of people from Lanxi Bunker is a team, everyone in their team is composed of family units, and each bunker is a separate group.

In the five or six years of the last days, they actually didn't communicate much with each other.

It's just a loose alliance.

In addition, most of them were businessmen before the end of the world. Businessmen pursue profits and are more selfish.

This resulted in the current situation where the two people were unwilling to come out.

but.

Ding Meng also had an idea, but he still pointed at Lin Zhongzheng's forehead.

He said to Lin Zhongzheng: "Find them!"

The two people who didn't come out just now actually didn't care about Lin Zhongzheng's life or death.

Now under Ding Meng's coercion, Lin Zhongzheng went over to find them, so he no longer had to bear the moral pressure.

Since you can all watch me die, then I can also watch you die.

Lin Zhongzheng's expression was very lively, but he still moved his steps.

He walked to the crowd on the left and pointed out these two people.

Four combatants immediately stepped forward and pulled out the two men who kept retreating.

He was thrown directly into the team on the right.

"Lin Zhongzheng is a bastard." One of the women glared at him and cursed.

Lin Zhongzheng didn't look at her, "Silly, is it useful for you to hide?"

In front of the car.

After carefully checking the number of personnel and finding that there was no problem, Li Zhengping said to Ding Meng:

"Captain Ding, everyone is here, take them over."

"Okay." Ding Meng shouted to the team members: "Take them all away."

After saying that, the combat personnel escorted the people from Twilight Castle towards the North District.

After watching Ding Meng and the others leave, Li Zhengping looked at the remaining people on the left.

Even though the combatants around them left, these people still did not dare to leave.

He looked at Li Zhengping nervously.

Li Zhengping glanced at them and said, "It's none of your business. Let's all go back."

After getting Li Zhengping's permission, these people dispersed in a hurry and ran towards Building 29 behind them.

Those who were watching the excitement saw that the excitement was gone, so they returned to their rooms in disinterest.

But they were also puzzled as to why the people in Oil City suddenly wanted to arrest those people.

Room No. 3 on the second floor.

As the people in the bunker were taken away, the room became more than half empty in an instant.

The three people who stayed behind had gone through what they had just experienced and no longer felt sleepy.

"Old Long, why do you think you wanted to arrest them? Could it be me?" Gambling Dog crossed his legs and approached Old Pao and asked.

Lao Pao frowned, shook his head and said, "You? It's impossible. I always feel that it's not the problem with the guy who robbed him, but something else."

"There have been fights in the trading market before, but at the trading market they have always punished only those who violated the regulations and did not involve other people. They will not control those who have not violated the regulations."

"Then, what else could it be because of? These people have just been here two days." Another person asked doubtfully.

In the dim environment, Lao Pao's eyes flashed.

"Let's wait for the result. There was so much noise tonight, and many people know about it. Although this is their territory, they have always preached fairness and justice, arresting people and killing people for no reason. If there is no explanation, I'm afraid everyone will be confused. If people are in danger, the image of the trading market will be greatly damaged.”

"Well, those people may have offended the manager of the trading market, I feel." Gambling Dog muttered.

Lao Pao nodded, "I don't rule out this possibility."

On the way to escorting the group of people to the bunker, Lin Zhongzheng kept asking why they were arrested.

But Ding Meng didn't mention a word. The task he received was to capture these people in Building 3 of the North District and keep them under strict supervision. He didn't care about the rest.

Ten minutes later.

After imprisoning these thirty-four people collectively in Building No. 3 in the North District, Li Zhengping and Lao Luo also rushed here.

The interrogation begins.

Because it was not completely confirmed that this group of people did it, they did not use criminal law.

Ah, a single person inquiry method was adopted, but when this group of people, Li Zhengping and others, asked whether they had lured the nuclear-radiated zombies to the west and exploded the road surface.

None of these people were stupid, and they all denied it.

But some people are not good enough at lying, and their expressions still give them away.

At this moment, Lao Luo missed the cannon.

"Director Luo, if it doesn't work, just use some means. I think they are the ones who did it." Li Zhengping said.

Lao Luo thought for a while and glanced at his watch. It was already half past two in the morning.

If we continue to spend time politely like this, it will be dawn in a few hours.

"Okay, use means."

Half an hour later.

Under the criminal law, some people finally relaxed.

He also explained the specific time, place and process of what happened.

Looking at the confession and the recorded audio, Lao Luo stretched his arms and yawned.

He said: "Chen Delong's team is outside at Post No. 2. Let them come back tomorrow morning to confirm whether they are these people. I will report the matter to the minister."

Due to the influence of the northwest, some new outposts were built on the main road a few kilometers or dozens of kilometers away from the Oil City, just to prevent a large-scale attack from the northwest.

Li Zhengping nodded. He was not sleepy. After all, he was young. Staying up all night was as easy as drinking water.

But after all, Lao Luo is over forty, and his energy is much worse than when he was young.

"Zhengping, I'm going back to rest first. You should also rest early."

"Okay, Luo Chu, walk slowly, I'll help watch over here."

In the dark night.

Four or five people, Song Tianyi and Lin Zhongzheng, who were detained in Building 3, stayed in the same room.

Lin Zhongzhong's fingers were trembling unconsciously, and there were marks on his joints, obviously from being severely tortured.

At this time, his eyes showed despair: "There is no way. Although you didn't say it, there are so many of us who must have said it."

Song Tianyi sat on the cold concrete floor, scratching his hair and wondering.

"Mother Ganlin, must they be sick?"

"Let's lure away the radioactive zombies to do their shit. We are in Fujian Province and they are here in Xinyang. They are so far away. Even if we lure the radioactive zombies over, it will not affect their side!"

A man wearing a tattered LV shirt said:

"I think the key question is not here, but how do they know what we did? Besides, we have only been here for two days, and they already know that we attracted nuclear-radiated zombies."

"I think maybe they have seen us, or they have known about our existence for a long time."

Lin Zhongzheng took a deep breath and endured the pain from his fingers.

"What you said is not the key."

"The key is, how to survive!"

"Since they asked about nuclear-radiated zombies, it means it must have affected them. Otherwise, why would we be sentenced to death?"

Before he could finish speaking, Song Tianyi shouted: "But we didn't do it on purpose. We also wanted to prevent the nuclear-radiated zombies from harming us. Otherwise, why would we take the risk to lure the nuclear-radiated zombies away?"

"So." Lin Zhongzheng nodded and continued: "We want them to know that we did not do it on purpose, and let them know that we are only doing it to ensure safety and do not know the impact on them."

"Well, that's not safe enough." The man in the LV shirt thought for a moment and then took over and said:

"It's not enough. I think we can also show our value to them and let them see the benefits of letting us go."

Song Tian glanced at him and said, "What value do you have?"

The LV man said proudly: "I have managed a company with a thousand employees and have rich management experience. I am also a boss after all!"

Song Tianyi mocked coldly: "Will people trust you to manage? You have to manage right away, just like you studied a business administration major before the end of the world. Do you think you can be a manager in a company as soon as you graduate? What are you thinking? What? This is the end of the world!”

"I understand human nature, and I understand refined operation management!" the LV man said with a smile on his face.

"Well, there are people who know management better than you. There is no shortage of such talents here." Lin Zhongzheng said helplessly.

"Yesterday morning, when I was in the business district, I saw a person. You should also know this person, Huang Guangyuan!"

"Mr. Huang? Is it that Mr. Huang?" Song Tian asked as soon as he sat up.

"right."

Lin Zhongzheng said with emotion: "It seems like he has a very high status here. He is surrounded by people from the patrol team."

Song Tianyi's expression became excited, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw.

"Why didn't you look for him then? I remember you had dealings with him! Now we have all fallen to this point. If we don't look for him, we will be finished!"

Lin Zhongzheng looked embarrassed, "We have dealt with him before. He competed with our family's business. It was a competitive relationship and the fight was quite fierce at the time."

"Old Song, don't you know him?"

Song Tianyi sighed and said, "Almost everyone who does business knows him. I have only met him a few times and we are just acquaintances."

"Try it, tell those people that we know Huang Guangyuan, maybe they can let us go for Huang Guangyuan's sake," the LV man said.

The next day.

Early in the morning.

An off-road vehicle set off from the oil city and rushed to Post No. 2.

"Lao Xia, why are you here? Will your shift change tomorrow?" Chen Delong looked confused when he saw Xia Tian getting out of the car.

Xia Tian quickly said: "Director Luo has something important to ask you and asks you to return to Oil City immediately."

Chen Delong looked confused. He was just a non-staff member of the Civil Armed Forces Department. What did Director Luo want to do with him?

"Okay, I get it."

Chen Delong put his index finger and thumb on his mouth and whistled.

"Ansheng, Legs, Zhuo Jun, let's go back to Oil City."

Three bald heads emerged from the sentry tower, and Xia Tian was startled by these three bald heads.

"What are they?" Xia Tian didn't understand why they wanted to shave their heads.

"It's hot, there's nothing we can do about it," Chen Delong said with a dry smile.

Xia Tian could tell from his dry expression that what Chen Delong said was not true.

But, not important.

A few minutes later, Chen Delong and the others drove towards the oilfield.

"Brother Delong, why do you suddenly have to go back to Oil City? Isn't there still one day?" An Sheng asked doubtfully.

"Director Luo is looking for us. I don't know the specific reason." Chen Delong stepped on the accelerator, increased the speed of the car, and returned to Oil City as quickly as possible.
