The sudden change scared Feng Lan next to him and rolled out of bed. He looked at Chi Yue with horrified eyes. He couldn't even utter a scream and just wanted to escape from the bedroom.
Chi Yue didn't give her a chance.
She threw the bladed dagger and stabbed it at Feng Lan's feet with perfect accuracy: "Come here, don't force me to do it."
Feng Lan, who was shaking like a sieve, had weak legs and fell onto the carpet. She looked at Chi Hongmin, who was still struggling, and her stimulated nerves drove her to hurriedly pick up the dagger.
The cool touch from her palm gave her a certain sense of security and calmed her panic.
"Chi Yue, murder is illegal!" She found her voice and tried to calm down: "If you have something to say, can you let your dad go first? We promise not to call the police!"
"What if I don't let go?"
Chi Yue tightened the strength in her hands.
Chi Hongmin rolled his eyes after being strangled, feeling the fear of dying. While pulling the hemp rope out with all his strength, he raised his legs under the thin quilt and tried to kick her away.
Feng Lan, who had great confidence in him, saw him making a move and mustered up the courage to get up and run to Chi Yue.
"Don't let me go?" Feng Lan, who was no longer afraid, had a twisted and angry look on his face: "Then don't blame me for being cruel!"
She held the handle of the dagger tightly, but before she could point the tip of the knife at her, the dark muzzle of the gun suddenly broke into her sight.
Chi Yue loaded the gun casually.
Listening to the faint sound that sounded like a reminder, Feng Lan's whole figure was pressed on the pause button and stopped in place.
She smiled: "How cruel do you want to be?"
The dagger fell to the ground with a click.
The moment she saw the muzzle of the gun, Feng Lan took no chances and knelt down towards her without caring about her face.
"Yueyue, don't, don't be impulsive." She grabbed Chi Yue's trousers and said tremblingly: "I just wanted to scare you."
"Daughter..." Chi Hongmin struggled to speak out after struggling to no avail, looking at her pleadingly, trying to regain her family affection.
They became fish on the chopping board again.
Chi Yue no longer gave him a chance to speak, and expressionlessly deprived him of his life, watching the hands fall down powerlessly.
She pulled out the hemp rope and glanced at Feng Lan, who was on the verge of collapse. In the same way, she tortured him until he lost his breath.
There was a water stain on the ground.
Chi Yue, who smelled the smell of urine, raised her feet in disgust, stepped over Feng Lan's purple face, and walked leisurely to the door.
Like her previous life, she never looked back.
Let the boundless darkness swallow up the two dead bodies and return to silence.

Wen Qizhou, who had been squatting at the entrance of the stairs, looked at the figure walking towards him from a distance, stood up and closed the distance.
The sound insulation effect of Chi's house was very good, and he didn't hear any movement in the bedroom from beginning to end.
Seeing Chi Yue looking at him like nothing happened, with a smile like a flower, his hanging heart finally fell.
"solved?"
"Well, the process went smoothly."
Wen Qizhou did not ask for details.
He raised his chin in the direction of the third floor: "What should we do with the siblings upstairs?"
"Ignore them."
Chi Yue and the siblings have always gotten along with each other, and they have never participated in drugging.
She was not an indiscriminate executioner, and there was no reason for her hatred towards Chi Hongmin and his wife to be forcibly transferred to them.
Anyway, they will not know who killed their father and mother, and there is nothing they can do if they want to take revenge.
Why should she care?
Wen Qizhou: "Are you still collecting things?"
"No more." The jewelry and cash in the safe soon lost their value and were not as valuable as food.
Chi Yue was too lazy to turn back.
She took Wen Qizhou's arm and walked out along the way she came, gradually moving away from the place that had brought her pain.
When returning home under the stars and the moon, many residents in Yujingwan had their lights on, and occasionally one or two screams could be heard.
"They seem to be catching mice." Wen Qizhou guessed the reason for the excitement in the community from the shouts and curses of the residents in the lower floors.
A soft creaking sound came as he finished speaking. Chi Yue turned her head following the sound and saw a dense swarm of cockroaches crawling towards them along the grass.
Her expression changed: "Let's go!"
Although the cockroach swarm is not directed at them, they can fly. The thought of them splashing over her body made her feel so sick that her stomach was churning and she couldn't help but retch.
Wen Qizhou frowned and protected her upstairs.
I climbed to the 26th floor in one breath and saw two or three mice wagging their tails and running around in the corridor.
He kicked away the mice that came to the door of his house, pulled Chi Yue in, and shut them out with quick eyes and hands.
"Yueyue, are you still feeling uncomfortable?" He looked into those reddish eyes, panting heavily and patted her back gently.
Chi Yue shook her head.
She drank two sips of mineral water and lay down on the sofa to rest for a while before the nausea dissipated.
"Fortunately, we blocked the sewer in advance." Otherwise, we would have fought them to the death tonight.
Wen Qizhou also felt the same way.
"I'll check again." He knew that Chi Yue hated cockroaches and spiders, so he was extra careful during the inspection.
This inspection actually allowed him to find two cockroaches that were struggling to squeeze into the house near the window gap of the fitness room.
To avoid a similar situation, he sprayed all the windows with insecticide.
Use tape to seal any gaps to prevent any insects or animals from visiting.
After returning to the living room after work, I heard Chi Yue talk about the news he got in the group: "Someone in the community was bitten by a mouse."
"Is it serious?"
"Two children were very serious. A piece of flesh was bitten off on their bodies."
Wen Qizhou thought of the boy at Brother Yuan's house. Just as he was about to send a message to ask about the situation, he heard a rapid knock on the door.
He walked to the entrance hall feeling slightly uncomfortable.
Seeing Yuan Chuan standing at the door with red eyes, he and Chi Yue's hearts trembled.
"Qizhou, does your car still have gas? Can you lend it to me? My dad's arm was bitten by a mouse and it bleeds, and 120 can't be opened. I have to take him to the hospital."
"Is uncle okay?"
"The person is still conscious." He wiped his eyes: "But he has underlying diseases, and I am afraid that he will be infected."
"Don't worry." Chi Yue turned around and gave him the car keys: "You will definitely not be infected if you get vaccinated within 24 hours."
Yuan Chuan choked with sobs and responded: "Thank you."
"Why are you so polite?" Wen Qizhou was worried that they wouldn't be able to find the car in the panic, so he immediately said, "I'll take you downstairs."
Chi Yue's scooter is parked on the first floor below.
The car was old and worthless, so they left it untouched when they sold off their assets, keeping it for emergencies.
There wasn't much gas in the car, but it was enough.
He put the father and son in the car, and when he came back, he cleaned up the mice in the corridor to prevent them from scratching the door.
But there is no end to the rats.
He closed the door with his front foot, and a few mice jumped out from nowhere and started having fun in the corridor.
Chi Yue advised him not to waste his efforts: "Unless we block the safe passage, there will always be rats coming up."
