Chapter 43 -43 Exposing Suspicions
Han Yi pulled Han Jiaojiao behind him, turned around to embrace her, and gently stroked her back. Han Jiaojiao took a light breath in Han Yi’s arms and whispered, “…It’s okay, brother, I’m not scared.”
After all, this was not the first time she had witnessed such a scene.
The dining area on the first floor had become a true dining area. Countless bodies piled up to form a small mountain of blurred flesh and bones, soaked in pools of filthy blood, almost submerging half the staircase. Some bodies had already been drained of blood, leaving only slightly rotten pale flesh. More numerous were the incomplete bodies—ripped open, beheaded, and missing limbs. Among them, there were even a few corpses of Mutant Beasts—perhaps before mutation they were pigs, sheep… who cares?
For the Alien Species, they were all the same—food.
Lu Changyuan covered his nose and mouth, looking extremely distressed.
Disgust filled Han Yi’s eyes. His already stern face now looked even colder and more somber. He raised the gun in his hand and spoke in a chilling tone, “Yan Xiao, burn these.”
No sooner had he spoken than the bullets had already flown!
Thirty to forty Alien Species surrounded the dining area. Startled by the sudden gunfire, they hadn’t yet reacted when several muffled sounds rang out—seven or eight of the Alien Species fell almost instantly! Immediately after that, the small mountain of bodies in front of them was ignited! The fats from the corpses exploded occasionally during the fire, enraging the Alien Species!
It was unclear who let out the first roar, but immediately the whole restaurant reverberated with incessant shrieks! They rushed towards Han Yi and the others on the second floor, leaping with heights almost hitting the railing, or getting their brains shot out the moment they grabbed the railing!
Han Jiaojiao handled the gun expressionlessly, her movements smooth like flowing water, showing no signs of panic. One shot, one kill—almost every shot was a headshot. Even Yan Xiao, who was the furthest from her, noticed and thought to himself that Han Jiaojiao must have been specially trained by Han Yi since she was young, cursing Han Yi’s heart of stone internally.
“Jiaojiao! One is climbing up the stairs!”
Amidst the gunfire and the roars of the Alien Species, Yan Xiao shouted loudly at Han Jiaojiao.
Bang!
The shot was on target. The Alien Species climbing the stairs fell into the sea of bodies and was immediately swallowed up by the flames.
Han Jiaojiao shot Yan Xiao a proud smile.
This time, even Lu Changyuan couldn’t help but look over. However, his gaze wasn’t on Han Jiaojiao, but on Han Yi.
Han Yi’s expression was severely grim. Facing Lu Changyuan’s questioning glance, he gave no response.
The Alien Species from the basement were pouring out, and Han Yi withdrew his gun and coldly said, “Fall back.”
In just two or three seconds, suddenly there was a loud bang followed by several explosions, shaking the entire building! Rumble—rumble—
The corpses in the dining area were blasted into fragments of flesh! The fire dramatically intensified!
The Alien Species that had already climbed to the second floor pursued them relentlessly, but as soon as they reached the sky bridge, they encountered the fierce firing of a machine gun! More than twenty Alien Species were riddled with holes in the face of this high-energy heavy weapon! Until no more Alien Species came over the sky bridge, Xiao Jian’s magazine was also nearly empty.
Another explosion came from the club at the end of the glass sky bridge, and half of the building seemed on the verge of collapse.
Lu Changyuan took a breath, removed his glasses, and wiped off the dust, saying, “It’s not explosives; there must have been some flammable and explosive materials inside the club.”
“It’s the liquor,” Han Yi said. “The fire has spread to the basement level, where there is a leisure bar with a vast stock of alcohol.”
Yan Xiao spat and said, “Even the heavens want to take them!”
With such violent explosions, it was imagined that the Alien Species in the basement would not survive, either being burned alive or buried alive.
The dust settled, and everyone felt a sigh of relief.
Han Jiaojiao walked over to Xiao Jian, watching him dismantle the machine gun. She found it incredibly impressive, but it was inconvenient to carry, with the ammunition alone needing a large box and the body being extremely heavy.
At that moment, Han Yi’s expression suddenly changed drastically! “Jiaojiao!”
Perhaps it was a telepathic connection or just a natural sense of danger, but almost at the same moment that Han Yi shouted, Han Jiaojiao swiftly rolled to the side!
——Bang!
A massive shadow slammed down where she had been just a moment before!
It was a dark bluish-black Alien Species! Its body was covered in wounds, with dark purple blood all over the ground, and in its injured state, it opened its fanged mouth and let out an angry roar at Han Jiaojiao! Then it lunged at her with its entire body!
In the instance the Alien Species lunged, Han Jiaojiao grabbed its neck! With her right hand, she flipped onto its back, and somehow her left hand had a Dagger, half-riding on its back, she viciously stabbed the Dagger into the junction of its occiput and cervical spine!
The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye!
“Aaaaaahhhhhhhh!——” The grounded Alien Species screamed piercingly.
Han Jiaojiao gripped the Dagger firmly and twisted it hard, like turning a key in a lock — “Click.”
The malformed skull was pried open by the Dagger.
This sound was so chilling to hear that it snapped an astonished Yan Xiao back to reality.
Looking at the massive corpse on the ground, everyone was silent.
Without changing expression, Han Jiaojiao pulled out the Dagger and, out of habit, wiped it on the prominent ridge of the Alien Species’s back before slowly standing up. When she lifted her head and saw everyone’s strange looks, she laughed awkwardly like a shy young girl, moved close to Han Yi, and said softly in a tender voice, “Brother, my hands are dirty.”
Han Yi sighed inaudibly. He took out a handkerchief, wiped the stickiness from her face, and carefully cleaned her hands.
Yan Xiao was still deeply shaken by what had just happened. He clutched his chest and exclaimed, “Was that an illusion just now?! Suddenly a shadow flew past! And in the blink of an eye, that thing was laying on the ground! What just happened?! I feel like my heart stopped from the fright!”
Seeing no one responding, he persisted, moving closer to Xiao Jian, “You were the closest, did you see it clearly?! Did you really see it? Did you hear a ‘click’? Did you?”
Xiao Jian took a moment and then nodded stiffly.
“…Jiaojiao, what do you call that move just now? A backflip?! I really want to meet your PE teacher! And that last move, just a ‘click’, and it was gone?!” Yan Xiao gestured wildly, almost incoherently.
Lu Changyuan was just as shocked as Yan Xiao. He walked over and crouched next to the Alien Species, carefully examining the injury on its skull.
The brain of the Alien Species was very hard, only the spot where Han Jiaojiao stabbed was relatively soft, but even that was just a narrow gap less than a centimeter wide. Lu Changyuan found it hard to believe that someone could hit such a small target without any practice. Looking back at Han Jiaojiao’s fluid movements and her quick reflexes, it was clear these were the result of long-term training. But at such a young age, where had she learned these skills? At her age and with her background, she should be living a carefree life, learning elegant things daily, not bloodstained killing techniques.
Although he vaguely felt that Han Yi was deliberately covering for her, Lu Changyuan still couldn’t help but ask her, “Why did you have to pry it open at the end?”
Han Jiaojiao paused and answered him, “It wasn’t necessary to do that, that… was just an action to make sure.”
“To confirm?”
