Chapter 360: Interrogation (Thanks for the reward from 不扣他)
Upon hearing Li Yu's command, Dapao and the others went forward and tied those people up.
With numerous guns pointed at them, they dared not make any rash movements.
But there was one who wasn't afraid to die, a man brought by Captain Tao.
Just as Song Min was about to tie him up.
The man suddenly erupted, snatching the handgun from Song Min's hand and was about to take action.
Bang!
A gunshot.
It was Yutong on top of the surrounding wall, holding a sniper rifle.
A headshot.
Blood splattered, and Song Min's face was covered in fresh blood.
Her face full of shock and lingering fear, she had not anticipated.
That the person who was just about to raise his hand would be so audacious.
This gunshot also scared the others who were just about to act, so they didn't dare move again.
Because of what just happened, Li Yu and the others were even more furious, so they quickly tied these people up.
Li Yu even said, "That one was a real man just now, does anyone else want to follow his example?"
As soon as he finished speaking,
Bang! Li Yu immediately raised his gun and killed another person.
To vent his anger!
Seeing that two people had been killed one after another, Captain Tao and the others were even less daring to act.
They were particularly resentful of the man who had erupted just now.
They were doomed now...
After waiting for all of them to be tied up, Li Yu connected each person together, with a one-meter distance between them.
Heading towards the base.
Li Yu looked at Yutong on the surrounding wall and gave her a thumbs-up.
Then he turned his head and said, "Uncle, you guys check the front gate, Dapao, Tianlong, Third Uncle, Gangzi, Tiezi, you guys come with me."
Since these people wouldn't tell the truth, he had ways to make them talk.
And with so many people, there were bound to be those who wanted to survive.
He didn't believe that every single one of them could keep their mouths shut.
He took them to the same cell as before.
On this journey,
They saw the gymnasium under construction, saw Bamboo Forest, saw two mountains, saw a garden…
These sights dazzled Captain Tao and the others, they hadn't expected that beyond Weng City there was another world.
A huge area behind them, just the number of people they saw on the way had already exceeded 70.
Li Yu first brought Mr. Wang forward for questioning.
But no matter what, Mr. Wang's mouth was very tight-lipped, so Li Yu handed him over to Dapao, whose occupational skills had greatly improved after several interrogations.
He always had his own methods.
Li Yu stood in front of these people, still in the same manner as before.
But now no one else dared to speak out.
The group was lined up in a row, with Li Yu standing behind them.
Their hands were bound behind their backs, kneeling on the ground.
In the front were Li Tie, Li Haoran, and others.
Li Yu unlocked the safety of his handgun and then said to the people, "Whoever can tell me the answer can live."
Captain Tao hurriedly said, "Everything I told you is true, every word is factual. We wouldn't dare to deceive you."
Bang!
Li Yu fired a shot, directly executing Captain Tao.
Clean and decisive!
He could tell this man was the leader among them.
They had been talking for so long and still not telling the truth, which annoyed him.
Might as well just kill him.
The remaining dozen or so people didn't expect Li Yu to kill someone just like that.
Just now, inside Weng City, he was all smiles; but when it came to killing, he was so determined and ruthless.
Although they had already witnessed it just now, it was still shocking to them that another person was killed, especially since it was Captain Tao.
Li Yu closed his eyes and said, "My patience is limited, if no one speaks in three seconds, I will kill a person."
One.
Two.
Three.
Bang!
The person kneeling next to Captain Tao was killed before he could even react.
The rest of the kneeling people were startled; they didn't expect Li Yu to act so quickly.
One.
Two.
Three.
This time, Li Yu counted numbers even faster than before.
Bang!
Another person was shot dead.
Three people killed in a row.
Li Yu had not heard anyone answer yet.
So he started calling out numbers again.
Three.
Bang!
Three.
Bang!
Two successive threes, having skipped one and two.
Stop.
The sixth person.
It was someone brought by Lao Sun; he didn't expect Li Yu to kill this fast.
The key was he didn't play by the rules, directly calling out three and then immediately killing two people.
So he hurriedly spoke up: "I'll talk, I'll talk."
Li Yu nodded, signaling for him to kneel down on the other side.
Then he raised his gun and said to the seventh person, "One.
Two."
Hearing Li Yu begin counting numbers again, this person trembled in fear and quickly said, "I'll talk. I'll talk."
Li Yu glanced at him, then looked towards the others.
The rest quickly said, "We will all talk."
Only then did Li Yu nod in satisfaction, and immediately had Lao Lu, Li Tie, and Li Gang each take a person away for separate interrogation.
Li Yu also took the sixth person for individual questioning.
Learning about a person named Hua Chuanxiong was beyond their expectations.
Inside a small room next to the prison cell.
Li Yu, Li Tie, and Third Uncle interrogated this Hua Chuanxiong alone.
Li Yu said, "Tell us everything that you know in detail."
Hua Chuanxiong was nervous, speaking with trepidation, "I'll tell you everything I know, just please don't kill me."
Li Yu nodded and said, "Go ahead."
Hua Chuanxiong then stated everything clearly:
"We came from the east, about 600 kilometers away, near Stone City.
After the apocalypse erupted, we were a force that came together temporarily.
That Captain Tao who was just killed, he was one of Wu Lao's men, and they were from the military too.
But after the main force was overrun, their small contingent later escaped to Safe City.
Then it was my brother and others who came.
Next was Ke Hanyu.
Then many Survivors came to us, and our numbers grew more and more."
Li Yu asked upon hearing this, "How many people do you have?"
Hua Chuanxiong said, "Before this blizzard, there were about two thousand of us.
But after this blizzard, many died of starvation or froze to death. Now there are probably less than a thousand."
Li Yu and Third Uncle exchanged shocked glances.
Li Yu continued, "Didn't you just mention people from the military? How many are there?"
Hua Chuanxiong quickly said, "There are about 60 of Wu Lao's men, each armed with a gun.
Then there's my brother's group, comprising over a hundred people, with about thirty firearms.
Ke Hanyu's group also has over a hundred people, with about a dozen guns.
The rest are scattered Survivors without guns, but their numbers are quite high, nearly seven hundred people altogether."
Li Yu immediately inquired, "Then why didn't you all use guns just now and left them in the vehicle instead?"
Hua Chuanxiong said with a bitter smile, "Ever since the apocalypse broke out, we've never received a replenishment of bullets, they are extremely scarce.
This time we went out, Captain Tao's men were given five bullets each, we only got three.
They're simply not enough, such a long distance, and on the way here we encountered several waves of Zombies, we used them all up."
As he spoke, he even began to cry bitterly.
He was only 20 years old, always protected by his brother, no one dared to bully him. Now, having come this far, suffering all sorts of hardships along the way was bad enough.
To end up here, just like being sent to death, now finding himself in such a predicament.
Li Yu nodded, then took out a map and had Hua Chuanxiong carefully mark the location of Safe City.
He then asked about how Mr. Wang managed to run to Safe City.
Hua Chuanxiong was unsure, to him, Mr. Wang seemed to have appeared out of thin air.
He felt that Mr. Wang was his nemesis, leading him to his demise.
Third Uncle suddenly spoke while looking at the map, "Xiaoyu, remember when I was chasing Mr. Wang? I chased him to this place.
From the map, it's not far from their Safe City.
I guess it was at that time, Mr. Wang escaped there."
Li Yu nodded, it all made sense now.
