"I really want to see how you plan to walk away from this."
Wang Hao crossed his arms, watching these people with a smirk on his face.
"Wang Hao, do you really want to go down this path of mutual destruction? I advise you not to act on a whim. Think it over carefully."
Zhang Ming said in a deep voice.
But inside, he was a bit rattled.
He had forgotten that Wang Hao could be a lunatic.
You just can’t asure such a person’s mindset by normal standards.
"Hmm! Scared, of course not."
Wang Hao looked at them, his eyes growing colder.
Originally, he had planned to absorb these people.
After all, his settlent had plans to recruit.
What a pity!
Pity these people were too ugly-hearted.
They thought they had sothing on him and actually tried to threaten him.
"Alright! Wang Hao! You forced us into this."
A ruthless glint flashed in Zhang Ming’s eyes.
"Officer, officer, we need to report. This Wang Hao has a huge stash of resources at ho—besides food, he has a lot of dicines, an incredible amount."
He yelled out loud.
Since they couldn’t pin Wang Hao down, they had no choice but to report him.
That would at least count as a big rit.
He believed that the authorities would definitely reward him.
But this was the last resort.
Both sides would be hurt, with the biggest benefits going to the authorities.
But there was no other way. Wang Hao was just that tough.
The two ard guards looked at each other, both bewildered.
What’s going on here?
How did it escalate to a report?
They ended up looking at Wang Hao.
"Officer, I swear to the heavens it’s true, this Wang Hao is a madman.
He stockpiled a massive amount of food and dicine before the apocalypse, and I’m the one who sold him those dicines."
Zhang Ming continued shouting, thinking they didn’t believe him.
"Yes, yes, I can testify, he hoarded an enormous amount of food, really a lot."
The male coworker chid in.
"I also know about this. He even asked us to hoard supplies together before. I’m suspicious that he has so secret source of information.
This apocalypse might even be his doing. Officer, if you arrest him and interrogate him properly, you’ll definitely get useful intel."
The female coworker also spoke up.
The three acted in concert, clearly having planned this before coming.
First, they tried coercion, hoping to force Wang Hao to back down.
Then they could squeeze him dry bit by bit.
If Wang Hao resisted, then they would have to take this last asure.
"Brother Hao... this is?"
The guards were dumbstruck.
They still hadn’t grasped the situation.
"Officers, go notify the highest-ranking officer here! This is a huge deal."
The male coworker urged.
"Yes, yes, hurry up."
The crowd also urged.
They felt it was dangerous to stay outside.
They wanted to get in as soon as possible.
At this mont, Zhang Ming’s heart skipped a beat.
He had heard the guards call Wang Hao "Brother Hao."
Could it be that Wang Hao had so influence in this settlent?
That must be it!
He’s a local resident here, and he must have offered a lot of food.
So it’s natural for the authorities to give him a small role.
This was troubleso!
If he had a good relationship with these two guards, and they suppressed this incident, that would indeed be problematic.
"Officers, you must have surveillance around here, right? I just saw drones tracking overhead."
Zhang Ming’s eyes darted as he reminded them.
Which implied that others were aware of what’s happening here.
With so many people around, the top leaders might soon know too.
They couldn’t hide this incident.
"Are you all idiots?"
The guard couldn’t stand it anymore.
He finally grasped the situation, more or less understanding what’s going on.
Turns out, these people ca over to stab him in the back!
"Officer, how can you curse people? You guys are supposed to be soldiers of the people!
I demand to speak directly with your highest leader."
Zhang Ming was completely panicked, seeing that these two seed to be on good terms with Wang Hao.
In that case, they had to escalate this matter thoroughly.
By then, higher-ups would definitely step in to handle it.
"Yes! We want to see your leader. I want to report you."
"Report!"
"Report!"
"Report!"
.....
The people around him joined in.
Everyone was smart. They knew they should escalate the issue now.
"The top leader is right in front of you."
Another guard laughed as he looked at these people.
"What?"
Everyone looked up at the two guards, full of confusion.
Though they were holding guns, how could they possibly be the top leader?
Were the leaders doing so kind of urban experience project?
But considering their age, that didn’t seem right!
"What’s the matter? Brother Hao is the primary leader of our settlent, the chief! Whatever you have to say, tell him!"
The guard’s tone was harsh, but he did offer a reminder to these people.
After all, they were soldiers, instinctively wanting to protect civilians.
Though these people were despicable, they weren’t deserving of death!
"What?"
All eyes turned to Wang Hao.
Zhang Ming and the other two coworkers were in disbelief.
Who was Wang Hao?
A nobody at best, how could he be the primary leader of this settlent?
Just because he had supplies?
But supplies couldn’t compete with guns!
"Impossible, absolutely impossible."
Zhang Ming glanced back and forth between the guards and Wang Hao, suddenly laughing:
"Haha, trying to fool ? You think I was born yesterday? Making Wang Hao, this loser, the leader? Don’t make laugh!
I’m telling you, you can’t cover this up."
Zhang Ming still believed Wang Hao was just friends with these two or they had exchanged benefits.
Or perhaps, these two wanted to take Wang Hao out themselves.
Whatever the reason, they wanted to suppress this incident.
"We want to see the top official."
"We want to see the top official."
"We want to see the top official."
.....
After his genius reminder, the people figured it out.
So that’s how it was.
They started shouting and making a scene.
They wanted to escalate the matter thoroughly.
There were drones up in the sky.
Even if they couldn’t hear, they could see, right?
They believed the higher-ups would soon co.
Then Wang Hao and those two guards would be in serious trouble.
"Bang!"
Just as they were feeling smug, a gunshot rang out.
In an instant, everyone froze.
Only Zhang Ming lay on the ground holding his leg, letting out a piercing scream.
