Apocalypse: Zombie Elimination Expert

Chapter 58: Poor Acting Skills!

Early in the morning, Chen Tuo was exercising in the living room when a knocking sound came from the fire escape in the elevator lobby.

It is worth mentioning that every night before going to bed, Chen Tuo not only locks his own security door from the inside, but also chains the fire door on the sixteenth floor.

He also instructed Jiang Xin and Zhang Shanhai to do the same.

This is to prevent unscrupulous survivors from sneaking up into the neighborhood while I'm asleep at night.

Even though the downstairs area is full of zombies and the fire door on the first floor is locked, with multiple layers of security, the probability of this happening is extremely low. But it's just a matter of putting in a little more effort, and having an extra layer of defense can't hurt.

Through the gap left in the door, Chen Tuo saw that only Li Wenwu was outside, which surprised him.

I thought it would be Jiang Xin knocking on the door at this hour, but it turned out to be this person...

"What is it?" Chen Tuo asked through a crack in the door, without even opening the chain.

Li Wenwu said with a fawning smile, "Tuo, Brother Tuo, Brother Hai asked me to call you. He wants you to go next door. He met several survivors there, and two of them want to leave the community with you, so he wants you to come over and discuss it with them."

Chen Tuo frowned slightly, staring intently at him. "You guys went next door last night?"

"Yes, that's right." Li Wenwu nodded with a smile.

"Last night, Xiaohui and I were getting ready to sleep when Hai came knocking on the door and asked us about the survivors. Xiaohui is the property manager, and she had contacted many survivors in advance and knew their locations, so she knows the most about this."

Chen Tuo's brows furrowed deeper and deeper. "Zhang Shanhai... is he asking you about the survivors?"

Li Wenwu nodded and said, "Yes, yes, Brother Hai said that you've done enough, Brother Tuo, so he wanted to help out by doing something. He's planning to see if the survivors in the nearby buildings are willing to leave the community with us."

"After all, the four of you are still too few. If you can take two more people with you, you'll have more strength. I just heard Xiaohui say during the day that there were survivors in the building next door, so I thought I'd take us over to check it out."

"And guess what? When we got there, we actually found five or six survivors. They were just like us, a small group that had gathered in the next building. When Hai Ge said he was going to leave the community, two of them immediately became interested."

"Hai-ge is currently discussing his plans after leaving the neighborhood with them. And when he heard that Tuo-ge and you guys were also there, he immediately brought out a lot of food he had collected to prepare for a get-together. Hai-ge specifically asked me to come and call you, and also to bring Sister Shu-yao and Jiang-xin along!"

Seeing Li Wenwu's excited expression, Chen Tuo narrowed his eyes slightly. "If that's the case, why isn't Zhang Shanhai here?"

Li Wenwu's smile remained unchanged. "Brother Tuo, as I just mentioned, Brother Hai is having a great time chatting with them and cooking at the same time. Although there aren't many fresh ingredients right now, there's still a lot of canned goods and dried seafood. We can make do with a hot pot. Brother Hai is eating right now and doesn't even want to get up. Let's hurry up and go, or we'll only be able to drink soup."

"Is that so..."

Chen Tuo's brows gradually relaxed, and a smile appeared on his face. "Wait a moment, let me open the door first."

"Hey!" Li Wenwu stood still, his face still bearing that big smile, watching as Chen Tuo slowly pulled the iron chain off the door.

crunch--

As the fire door opened, Li Wenwu was about to step forward to help push it open when a large hand reached out and grabbed at his face.

"Taku, Taku-ge! What are you doing!?"

Li Wenwu was horrified. He was grabbed by the hair and violently pulled inside, falling face-first into the dirt.

The fire door, which had been opened for less than half a second, was closed again.

Chen Tuo looked down at him and patted the hair oil off his hands.

"Your acting is terrible, it doesn't look convincing at all..."

"Tuo... Brother Tuo, what do you mean by pretending? I wasn't pretending. It really was Brother Hai who told me to come and call you." Li Wenwu sat on the ground, a trace of fear flashing in his eyes.

Chen Tuo remained calm. "Still being stubborn? Looks like you really won't admit it until you're faced with a real problem."

Li Wenwu tried to stick to his story, "Really, I'm not lying to you. Brother Tuo, you'll see once you come with me!"

Chen Tuo smiled faintly, "Old Zhang isn't the type to hog all the benefits, and you're not the kind of person who wouldn't take advantage of a good deal."

"You used the same excuse to fool Old Zhang, didn't you? Let me guess, what reason did you use... to save someone?"

For the first time, genuine panic appeared on Li Wenwu's face. He hadn't expected Chen Tuo to guess it so easily.

But he remained tight-lipped, sticking to the same old excuses over and over again.

Chen Tuo's patience gradually ran out, and his expression grew colder and colder.

He squatted down and gently patted Li Wenwu's face, saying:

"It's okay to be stupid, but it's terrible to be stupid without realizing it. Your words and expressions are full of loopholes in my eyes. I'll give you one last chance to tell the truth, and maybe you can avoid a beating."

Li Wenwu's eyes twitched, and he swallowed hard. "Brother Tuo, I... I really didn't..."

Shu Yao heard the commotion and came out. She was stunned by what she saw. "What happened?"

Chen Tuo stood up and said calmly, "Brothers Wenwu, are you itching for a beating? Bring out all the stuff in the house. Oh, and call Jiang Xin down too. I think she'll be very interested in what's coming next..."

Li Wenwu's pupils contracted slightly, and he immediately sensed that something terrible was about to happen.

……

Meanwhile, Unit 2, 304.

Hua Lian leaned back on the sofa, while Fang Hui nestled in his arms, complaining coquettishly about the hardships of the past two days.

"Brother Painted Face, you have no idea how exhausted I've been these past two days. To gain their trust, I've been running around doing everything I can, not daring to slack off at all..."

The painted face touched her little face. "Alright, alright, my little vase, you've worked hard. I'll treat you tonight and make sure all your hard work these past two days is wiped away."

"How annoying..." Fang Hui giggled and twisted her body.

Green Hair, Red Hair, and Old Zhang, who were standing nearby, were envious and felt a surge of lust rising to their heads, but they couldn't find any way to vent it.

It wasn't that there weren't women in the house; they had brought two women from Building 6 over the day before.

After all, Fang Hui was the exclusive subject of the painted-face troupe, and they also needed to meet some of their needs. The two women they had caught earlier would naturally still have some use.

only......

The two women looked extremely miserable at that moment.

One of them, covered in wounds, lay unconscious on the ground.

The other was covered in bruises, and even now his body was still trembling uncontrollably, as if he had just been tortured.

Seeing the two women's miserable state and recalling what happened last night, Hongmao couldn't help but curse aloud.

"Damn it, the guy my sister-in-law brought over is a complete beast. We let him do whatever he wanted, and he really went all out, leaving us with nothing to play with!"

Green Hair spat as well, "I thought Old Zhang was a beast enough, but I didn't expect there to be someone even more beastly. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I really wouldn't have believed it. That kid is definitely a psychopath. Who would grab a weapon while playing around..."

Old Zhang didn't join the discussion about whether Li Wenwu was a pervert or not. He was more concerned about the two women and asked worriedly, "They haven't woken up all night. Are they dead?"
