Chapter 39
The atmosphere was stagnant for a moment, and the air seemed to be stretched with a string that would make a painful sound if plucked lightly.
“Bang!”
The door was suddenly pushed open, and Qi Gen ran in like a fly, holding a child of one or two years old. He was hit hard from behind, and fell to the ground. While falling, he still held the child tightly in his arms, but after falling to the ground, he let go of his hands and pushed the child hard towards Bai Le.
The one who fell to the ground was a cute little girl as cute as an angel. Qi Gen pushed her and she rolled on the ground. Her body was covered with dust, but she didn't cry at all. She got up swiftly, and her limbs crawled forward as fast as if they were equipped with small motors. She didn't stop until she was behind Bai Le, then stood up staggeringly, hugged Bai Le's legs, put a finger in her mouth, and looked at Qi Gen innocently with her big eyes blinking.
Qi Gen had been lifted up by someone's neck, but there was no sign of pain on his face. He even gave the little girl a bright smile to comfort her.
The one who caught Qi Gen was a big man with one eye blind. He held the boy in one hand and pointed a short bone spur in the other hand at the boy's throat. The spur had already pierced the skin, and a string of red blood flowed down Qi Gen's neck. The big man's only remaining eye rolled around, and when he didn't see Rong Yuan, he fixed his eyes on Bai Le.
The next moment, the sounds of doors and windows breaking were heard one after another. In the blink of an eye, a large number of people poured into all the entrances and exits of the small building, blocking the building. Many people were holding their children who lived downstairs in their hands, holding them in front of them like amulets.
Outside the small building, looking around, all the rooftops of nearby tall buildings and overpasses were filled with dense crowds of people, and the visible windows were also crowded with people. Some people had no place to stand, and even hung their entire bodies on the outer walls of the tall buildings, trying their best to get closer to the small building.
In this human wall, even a mosquito would find it impossible to fly out.
Bai Le knew that there was no way out, so he suddenly calmed down, leaned over and picked up the frightened little girl, patted her back gently, and then handed the girl to Germain who was standing next to him. He took a step forward and said, "I, Bai Le, am right here. I will neither run nor hide. If you have anything to say, just tell me. Let the others leave! Otherwise, even if I die , I will not let you get anything."
"Captain!" Kadi couldn't help but shout.
Germain was also somewhat moved. He clenched his teeth and said nothing, but he did not take a step back either.
The one-eyed man rolled his eyes around, neither saying yes nor no, and still holding Qi Gen's hand tightly, he said after a while: "That Rong..." He paused, then changed to a stiff and respectful tone: "...Where is the gentleman?"
Bai Le sneered: "If he was here, do you think you could still stand?"
The one-eyed man looked at Bai Le fiercely but said nothing.
——He knew clearly that Bai Le and the others were at an absolute disadvantage, but for some reason, he always had an inexplicable sense of danger, as if there were needles pricking the back of his head. Although he was facing Bai Le, his toes unconsciously turned towards the door, as if he was ready to escape at any time.
Others felt the same pressure. Before they rushed in, they were full of energy and felt that nothing in the world could stop them. But after entering the house, they suddenly felt extremely panicked, as if the house had turned into a monster with a big mouth, waiting to bite down the prey after it was full! After walking on the tightrope of life and death for a long time, the nerves that were trained to sense danger like those of wild animals were always tense, reminding them "Danger, danger!" If the temptation this time was not too great, I believe many of them would have fled at this time.
Bai Le and the others did not feel this kind of pressure. They looked at each other, wondering what these people meant by rushing in frantically without saying anything.
After a long while, someone in the crowd finally said, "We want to see Mr. Rong."
Bai Le said impatiently: "I told you, he's not here!"
"Where did he go?" the man asked again.
"How should I know?" Bai Le said unhappily, "He is neither my son nor my subordinate. Does he need to report to me where he goes?"
The man stopped talking and exchanged glances with the others. Another person said, "You and your son are going to leave Prison Star, right?"
Bai Le did not answer but asked: "This damn place can only be entered but not exited, don't you know?"
"It was not possible before." Another person said, "But after Mr. Rong came, things became different, right?"
Bai Le sneered: "What's the difference?"
"Let me be frank." An old man with a gloomy face said, "We heard that the young man named Rong Yuan has a way to leave. You should know about this, right?"
"Who would know about this when there is no trace of anything?" Bai Le said without hesitation: "Who spread the rumor? Let him come out and explain it to me."
"I also heard he has a storage bag."
"He destroyed the Tyrant Army all by himself, using weapons from the outside world."
"I heard it's a mecha."
"If there are mechas, there are probably spaceships as well."
"Even if there is no spaceship, if the mecha has enough energy, we can leave this damn place!"
"Yes, that's right, let him hand over the mecha!"
As soon as someone spoke, everyone seemed to gain some kind of courage, and they all spoke at once, becoming more and more excited and bolder as they spoke.
Bai Le's face was as dark as iron, and Germain and Kadi behind him looked even uglier.
The Bajun's place had long been bombed into ruins, and no one could tell what the battle process was like after Rong Yuan walked in. Although many people attacked the Bajun's base at that time, the area around the artificial mountain had long been cleared by the Howling, and in the end, only the Howling people cleaned up the battlefield, and all of them were core members.
So Bai Le and his companions knew that they had indeed found a few mecha fragments near the ruins, but this matter was top secret in Howling, and only a very small number of people who were most valued by Bai Xiang knew about it.
Someone betrayed them!
Thinking of this, Bai Le almost bit his teeth until they bled.
Moreover, they couldn't tell from the fragments whether the person using the mecha was Rong Yuan or the Tyrant Army. Most people tended to think it was Rong Yuan, because if the Tyrant Army had mechas, why didn't they leave Prison Star earlier? But Bai Le knew better that Rong Yuan didn't need mechas to deal with those people, but this statement couldn't convince others.
The crowd, whose eyes gradually turned red due to greed and desire, approached Bai Le and others step by step, but because of inexplicable concerns, they still maintained a certain degree of restraint. Suddenly, there was a commotion behind the crowd, and the enthusiastic air was like being poured with a basin of cold water. It was quiet for a moment, and then everyone turned to look at Bai Le, and the look in his eyes made him feel more frightened than before.
Bai Le was eager to know what was happening behind the crowd. As if they had heard his thoughts, the crowd silently made way for a group of people to come over from behind. Bai Le was stunned for a moment, and after seeing the appearance of those people clearly, he roared and was about to rush over, but was held tightly by Kadi, who was also furious.
With a "bang", a bloody body was thrown into the middle. It was Snow. His limbs were broken and twisted into strange angles. It took a long time for his chest to rise and fall slightly.
Bai Xiang, who was tied up and covered in blood, was suppressed and forced to kneel down. He heard Bai Le's roar, and barely opened his swollen eyes. He took a close look at Bai Le and was relieved to see that he was not injured.
Next to Bai Xiang and Snow, there were seven or eight core members of the Howling Army, all of whom were seriously injured and unable to stand up. But there was another person, wearing a Howling Army uniform, standing behind Bai Xiang and the others intact, his eyes dodging, not daring to look at Bai Le.
Bai Le stared at him with bloodshot eyes and asked, "Uncle Sean... why?"
Sean lowered his head, his face ashamed, cold sweat dripping down the tip of his nose. Suddenly, someone put his arm around his shoulders and patted him, smiling and saying to Bai Le: "Don't blame him. Men, in front of a beautiful girl, with a kiss on the red lips, loose belts, and a little wine, can say anything."
Bai Le looked at the man with gnashing teeth and said hatefully, "Han! Yue!"
"Haha, long time no see, Captain Xiaobai." Han Yue looked at him and said jokingly, "Oh, by the way, there's also Captain Kadi. You were so majestic when we met last time! Why aren't you talking now?"
Kadi hugged Bai Le, kept silent, and his eyes were flashing with ferocity.
"Ouch!" Han Yue covered his face with one hand and said shyly, "I love your eyes!" As he spoke, he moved his foot and stepped on Bai Xiang's ankle. Everyone heard a crisp "crack" sound. Bai Xiang groaned and his body shook uncontrollably. Han Yue spread his hands and said, "I'm sorry, I was so excited that I accidentally slipped."
“Hanyue!” Bai Le’s eyes were red with anger as he stared at Hanyue, and spoke word by word: “I will kill you! Hanyue, I must kill you!”
"I'm right here! How are you going to kill me?" Han Yue pretended to think about it, and then said as if he suddenly realized something: "Ah, rely on your... friend who is always pretending?"
"What?" Even though Bai Le was so angry that he was about to explode, he was still stunned when he heard someone say this about Rong Yuan.
"Do you think I haven't done anything during this period?" Han Yue said with a smile, "I have collected a lot of information about Mr. Rong! He drew lines in the air to kill all the insects and beasts, he defeated the Tyrant Army alone, and he used birds in the sky to kill people thousands of miles away... It's so magical. I'm so scared of this method of turning clouds and rain with a flip of the hand! I almost believed it!"
Han Yue's face changed, and he sneered, "It's just that they used some weapons brought in from the outside world to play tricks, and they really pretended to be so real! It's a pity that they pretended too much and revealed their flaws!"
Hearing him say this, Bai Le calmed down completely. He shook off Kadi, looked at Han Yue, and sneered, "Heh, since you have already... guessed it, what do you want to do?"
