Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 551
Chapter 551: You’re the Culprit!
They bent their backs and moved through the large number of winding and cramped underground tunnels. They were like a spider’s nest.
Sometimes, they heard the footsteps of pursuers in the distance and sometimes nearby. There were a few times when the pursuers were only one wall away from them.
For superhumans, breaking a wall was as easy as tearing a newspaper.
The group could only lay on the ground and use the cold puddles in the underground tunnel to cool down their bodies while they prayed that the pursuers would hurry up and move past them.
There were a few times when A’Ji led them around randomly like some headless chicken and they seemed to have reached a corner, but they were always able to find a bit of hope in the midst of darkness and a crack that they could barely squeeze through.
No one knew how much time had passed, but the trio was gradually able to cast the pursuers behind them.
It was now silent around them. They were dozens of meters underground, which meant that they were approximately eight floors underground.
“Huh? What is this?” A’Ji suddenly pointed at a dark wall.
Meng Chao groped around carefully, and based on the bumps he felt, he found a rusty, hidden door embedded in the wall.
There was a complicated lock that required a password to open it.
But that was not a problem for A’Ji.
Meng Chao used his spirit energy to get rid of the rust on the lock, and A’Ji used two silver threads to fiddle around with it. Soon, he heard a crack from within the hidden door.
A brick came out of the wall beside the door.
Meng Chao pulled on it and noticed that it was connected to a chain.
He tugged at the chain, and the door slowly opened.
It had hid a shelter that was abandoned a long time ago.
Even though it had been left in the dust for decades, the ventilation was pretty good, so they could catch their breaths for a while.
Meng Chao a skedA’Ji and Su Mulian to stay outside and listen, then went inside and closed the door.
The soundproofing of the shelter was pretty good. He could carry out interrogation work without a problem.
The trio tossed the unconscious “military adviser” inside.
Meng Chao thought about it and had Su Mulian stay beside him while he asked A’Ji to curl up in the damaged refrigerator in the corner.
It was only at this moment that he began carefully inspecting the “military adviser” and became certain that he did not carry anything that would cause any harm to him.
He did not have any barcodes on his nape and no wounds on his armpits, so it was impossible for him to be a former Reaper Squad member.
Judging by his appearance, he was also not a lost person on the bounty list.
Finally, Meng Chao asked Su Mulian, “Could you heal him? You don’t need to heal him fully. All he needs to do is answer our questions.”
Su Mulian nodded. She pressed her hands gently on the “military adviser”‘s temples, and spirit tattoos that looked like branches appeared on the back of her hands. A gentle green light shone around her palms and went into the “military adviser”‘s head.
Half a minute later, the “military adviser”‘s eyelids fluttered open.
It seemed like he wanted to continue pretending that he was unconscious, but he could not endure the sequelae of his concussion.
With a roll, he shot up from the ground, but he immediately fell down with his hands on the ground and started dry heaving.
After dry heaving for so long that he practically vomited his gallbladder juice out, he turned around and scanned his surroundings warily.
When his gaze landed on Meng Chao, he gave a visible shudder, and when he saw Su Mulian’s faint green skin and sharp ears, his pupils shrank swiftly. He could not hide his shock.
Su Mulian was the third most important person in Leprosy Village. Her status was only beneath that of the old village chief and Wild Wolf.
If this person was really part of the middle management or higher management of the gangs in the lair, he should know her, or at least, have the general idea of how Ms. Mulian should look.
“Name, occupation,” Meng Chao demanded.
The “military adviser” clenched his teeth and snorted coldly. He did not answer.
Meng Chao sighed.
He took out harvesting blades, lancet knives, various monster materials that contained venom and strong corrosive properties, all sorts of survival tools that had hooks, spikes, chains, and pliers from his military-grade backpack and placed them in a row right in front of the “military adviser”.
Meng Chao spoke sincerely and in resignation. “Perhaps we have some misunderstandings between us. You were given this task by someone else, which means that you’re not my real target.
“But I’m really short on time, so I won’t waste it to coax answers from you. That’s why what I’m going to do next will make you feel pain worse than death. Please don’t blame me. I’m just forced to do this.
“Fortunately, we have the best doctor here, so no matter what I do to you, she will be able to heal you so that I can beat you up a second time.”
While Meng Chao spoke, he picked up a harvesting knife and quickly sliced the “military adviser”‘s hand.
He was in full control when he did this. It was true that “military adviser”‘s skin had been cut open and blood was gushing everywhere, but his bones and tendons were not harmed.
Even so, the “military adviser” sucked in a sharp breath.
Meng Chao motioned to Su Mulian. “Heal him.”
Su Mulian frowned a little. It seemed like she was unwilling to go against her nature and help Meng Chao in his interrogation.
But when she thought about the people in Leprosy Village and remembered that the abnormal beast had a scheme that would involve an even larger number of victims, she gritted her teeth and quietly took the “military adviser”‘s palm.
Ten seconds later, she let go, and the wound on the back of the “military adviser”‘s hand had healed without any medicine.
Aside from the fact that the new flesh was a little tender and there was still blood around it, no signs of the hand being hurt just moments prior could be seen.
The “military adviser”‘s eyes went wide. He was shocked by the amazing nature of Su Mulian’s healing abilities.
But a thought struck his mind, and he immediately realized that this amazing healing skill was not a good thing for him right now.
“Look. We can make sure that you remain alive until you tell us everything.”
Meng Chao’s fingers moved around the harvesting knives, lancet knives, venom, acidic materials, and all sorts of strangely-shaped survival tools. It seemed like he was hesitating on which he should use first.
“If I pull out his teeth barehanded, do you have a way for him to get his teeth back inside or grow new ones?” he asked seriously.
Su Mulian shuddered.
The “military adviser” shuddered even more than she did.
“Forget it. If he can’t speak clearly, I might be unable to hear what he’s saying clearly. Let’s start from flesh wounds, okay?” Meng Chao picked up three harvesting knives and twirled them, making them shine with a light that looked like more than one hundred white waterfalls.
“I’m Song Jinbo, manager of Glory Entertainment.”
Song Jinbo’s mind had been attacked by Meng Chao’s Fear Bomb, and his mental defenses were already in tatters. He could already be considered quite a tough man for breaking down only at this moment.
Golden Tooth, Poison Scorpion, Black Bone, and the other gang names were just the colloquial terms used by people to refer to the organizations.
To make it easier for management and operation purposes, the gangs registered themselves under a legal business or organization so that they could use industrialized methods to operate their gangs.
Glory Entertainment was a company under Golden Tooth. It was in charge of the monster coliseums and gambling sites.
There were a few things that attracted the citizens from the outside world to visit the lair. First, the unique cooking methods of monster meat. Second, one of the oldest professions in the world—sharing “girlfriends”. Third, monster coliseums and illegal gambling sites.
If Song Jinbo was a manager of Glory Entertainment, he was definitely in the middle management or higher management. He might have even had the chance to meet Saber Jin Wanhao directly.
Meng Chao and Su Mulian exchanged a glance. ‘We’re finally seeing hope.’
Meng Chao pondered over his words for a while and said, “Manager Song, you should know that this morning, I received orders from the abnormal beast research department and the secret police to follow the veteran hunters from the mega corporations to enter the lair so that we can investigate the Deification Capsules, right?
“We have been comrades this morning, so why is it that in less than twenty-four hours, all of you mobilized your forces to kill me? Who gave you the order? Does your gang leader, Saber Jin Wanhao, know about this?”
“Of course I know,” Song Jinbo said stiffly. “My gang leader is the one who personally released the order to kill you without fail.”
“What?” This time, Meng Chao was the one who was shocked. “Saber Jin Wanhao wants to kill me? And Poison Scorpion is saying nothing about it? The other gangs are also responding to it? Aren’t they afraid of the abnormal beast research department and secret police’s reaction to this? That’s impossible!”
Song Jinbo laughed coldly. He then hissed, “Meng Chao, stop pretending. Did you think that you were very discreet when you did all those things? Everyone saw it! Right now, the lair and the world outside has seen your true colors and no one will believe a single thing you say!
“Since I’m not as strong as you, I’m willing to admit defeat. You can kill me or torture me as much as you want, but it’s impossible for me to betray Golden Tooth and the lair!”
He sounded so righteous that Meng Chao was stunned for a long time.
“Wait. Now I’m certain that we have a misunderstanding between us.” Meng Chao frowned. “I’m a passionate citizen of Dragon City. I always do good things, so what are you talking about?”
Song Jinbo cocked his eyebrows and answered with a fierce expression. “You killed Bullet Xue Rui!”
“…” Meng Chao was absolutely flabbergasted.
Bullet Xue Rui was one of the veteran hunters working with an insurance company affiliated to a mega corporation and was part of the hunting squad.
When they were conducting adaptive training outside the lair, Meng Chao had sparred against him and both of them had very high remarks for each other’s ability to calculate bullet trajectories and bullet ricochet trajectories.
When Meng Chao had rushed into Leprosy Village and fought against Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang the first time, Bullet Xue Rui had arrived on time to intimidate the three lost people.
Later, just like Meng Chao, Bullet Xue Rui was lost in the ruins of the super crystal bomb explosion.
After that, Meng Chao had not seen or heard of Bullet Xue Rui.
“Xue Rui is dead?” Meng Chao could not believe it, but he was also furious about it. “But on what grounds are you accusing me of killing Xue Rui?”
Song Jinbo answered coldly, “Your acting skills are indeed good. It’s no wonder why you could lay low for so long without revealing your true colors.
“Unfortunately, Rattlesnake Xiang Wei saw the entire event when you killed Bullet Xue Rui!
“Xiang Wei was near the explosion and thrown off kilter by it. He was then squashed under the reinforced concrete, which made him lose consciousness for a long time.
“Fortunately, he was at the edge of the explosion, so his vital organs were not damaged. He woke up relatively quickly.
“While he was struggling to crawl outside, he heard you shout for help while stuck under debris. You couldn’t move.
“Xiang Wei naturally knew who you were and wanted to go up to help you, but Bullet Xue Rui appeared first and went to drag you out from under the debris.
“But the moment Bullet Xue Rui caught you in his arms, you stabbed his heart! Your entire arm went through his chest!”
