After Ren Yu talked with Lu Yan, he thought about it all night, and finally decided to ask Xia Sen again. This time he must ask clearly.
Xia Sen was just like before. As soon as Ren Yu mentioned a few words, his eyes widened and he roared hysterically.
"That's enough! How many more times do you have to ask!! I've already said it, he was the one who was careless!!"
Usually at this time, Ren Yu would stop asking, but this time he didn't.
Ren Yu closed his eyes tiredly, took a deep breath, and asked again:
"I said, I didn't doubt you, I just wanted to ask for the details, at least where he died!!"
"What's the use of asking these questions?! When a person dies, he is dead!!"
Xia Sen's tone was unprecedentedly cold, as if the person in his mouth had nothing to do with him.
Lin Wanwan couldn't stand him anymore and said loudly:
"Xia Sen, he is your classmate, your roommate who has been with you day and night for three years! Haven't you thought about at least bringing back his remains?!"
"I think you are the ones who are crazy! One or two of them have a heart attack, right?!" Xia Sen sneered:
"People are already dead, what's the use of bringing them back? Could it be him, and you two have to die with him?!"
Of course Lin Wanwan knew that this was impossible, they didn't have the ability to do it.
But she still felt chilled by his irrelevant attitude and said coldly:
"Then you must at least tell us how Yang Peng died? The two of you left together, and you were the only one who came back, and you were still unscathed..."
Xia Sen yelled before she could finish speaking:
"After all, you just don't believe me? Is it useful to ask so many hypocritical questions? Just say it clearly!"
Xia Sen panted heavily and stared at the two people in front of him:
"It's clear that you are the one who suspected Yang Peng of being killed by me. You don't want to see me come back at all."
Ren Yu opened his mouth:
"That's not what we meant..."
It's back to the old road again, the topic is the same as before, it goes back to the point that they just don't want to see Xia Sen come back alive, and the next thing is Xia Sen hysterically roaring that they want him to die.
Ren Yu felt unprecedentedly tired at this moment.
Qin Zhen was sitting on the stairs watching them arguing. He suddenly patted Lu Yan standing next to him and said with a smile:
"This gloomy boy is really good at playing psychological tactics!"
Lu Yan was noncommittal. Maybe Ren Yu and Lin Wanwan couldn't see clearly because they were in the middle of the game, but they saw it clearly from the beginning.
Xia Sen has been consciously steering the topic towards "You just don't want to see me alive", and then uses this to induce guilt in his companions, thereby achieving the purpose of avoiding cross-examination.
At this time, Xia Sen's eyes were red and he said sadly:
"That's what you think. I obviously managed to survive. I worked so hard to survive, but I still have to be questioned and doubted by you when I come back!! You never put yourself in my shoes!! I survived, too. Guilty?! Can’t I survive?!”
A series of questions and a look of sadness and collapse on his face were intended to arouse the guilt in his companion to the peak.
"Hey, this kid." Qin Zhen saw the guilty look on Ren Yu's face and couldn't help but shook his head:
"The boy named Ren is still too young. If it really has nothing to do with him, why don't we make it clear? If he has to avoid answering again and again, there is obviously something wrong."
He didn't have a good impression of this gloomy-looking boy named Xia. Whenever they encountered danger along the way, this boy named Xia would be the fastest runner.
Last time they were surrounded by a group of zombies, Yan Mingxu asked them to wait upstairs, but the boy rushed back to the armored vehicle, and Yan Mingxu was almost bitten trying to protect him.
Qin Zhen pulled out the barrel of his gun, loaded it, stood up and was about to go over:
"Grinning, when are you going to ask? This kid is not afraid of death, but he still dares not to say anything with the barrel of a gun pressed against his head?!"
Lu Yan grabbed him and shook his head:
"Old Qin, wait." He wanted to see if Ren Yu could persist in asking, or if he would let it go.
Qin Zhen became impatient and said roughly:
"What are you waiting for? I feel very unhappy when I see you..."
"Do you want to be punished?" It is taboo for soldiers to point guns at innocent civilians.
Qin Zhen froze for a moment, with an awkward look on his face. He sat down and cursed like a military ruffian:
"Damn it, it's the end of the world and you still use this to suppress me. The worst I can do is destroy him. If you don't complain when you go back, who will know?!"
Lu Yan couldn't laugh or cry.
Xia Sen continued to repeat over and over again: "You just doubt me...why do you doubt me..."
Ren Yu knew that the conversation could not continue, so he had no choice but to prepare to end it.
Lu Yan saw his plan and felt a little disappointed. Ren Yu was still too indecisive.
At this moment, Lin Wanwan suddenly stood up, looked at Xia Sen coldly, and said word by word:
"You are right, we are just doubting you."
Xia Sen obviously didn't expect that they would really openly doubt him. His face was dull and he couldn't recover, and he said quite angrily:
"Look, you are just doubting me, and you still say I don't..."
"Then you have to do it so that we can't doubt it!" Lin Wanwan grabbed the conversation and said impatiently:
"If you are upright, you are not afraid of the shadow. Think about the things you have done. Why do you think we won't doubt you?!"
Lin Wanwan still can't forget Xia Sen's face when Peng Zhengxin and Fatty dragged her and wanted to insult her, and Xia Sen asked her to "bear with it".
She looked at Xia Sen with a sneer, and then said:
"You are afraid of death, cowardly, arrogant, and arrogant. How many times have you put us in danger along the way?! Ask yourself, do you have the ability to break away from the zombies on your own?!"
Xia Sen also wanted to forcefully change the topic:
"So you just expect me to die, right?"
Lin Wanwan saw that he wanted to mess around again, and she had already lost her patience. She simply nodded and said:
"Yes, if you don't explain clearly what happened that day, we will assume that you killed Yang Peng! If you can't explain it, you killed your companions. Why do you still expect you to live?"
Lin Wanwan sneered:
"Am I still going to protect you like before and wait for you to stab us in the back?!"
"You!!" Xia Sen turned to look at Ren Yu, his eyes splitting with anger, "Do you think so too?!"
Ren Yu didn't speak, but his silence said everything.
"Okay...ok..." Xia Sen nodded with a sneer and stepped back step by step:
"This is my good companion. He was so high-sounding before, but now he wants me to die!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Sen opened the door and ran out! !
"Hey, this kid ran away!!" Qin Zhen stood up suddenly and shouted: "Hurry up and chase him, we can't let him get away like this!!"
He seemed more excited than Ren Yu and Lin Wanwan, and those who didn't know it thought it was his brother who was killed.
"Old Qin!" Lu Yan had to grab him again.
Lu Yan glanced at Ren Yu. He was quite disappointed with this young man's performance today, but Lin Wanwan was quite unexpected.
Qin Zhen wanted to recommend both of them to the army.
Lu Yan hadn't brought up new recruits for a long time. This kid Ren Yu made him think a little, so he paid special attention to it. Today's incident made him a little hesitant.
Mu Tang walked back slowly with Niba, and saw Xia Sen rushing out of the room from a distance, but didn't pay much attention.
Like the students who came home from school in the afternoon, they shouted loudly before entering the house:
"Lu Yan, I'm back~"
Lu Yan, who was still holding Qin Zhen in the house, immediately let go, went down the stairs, and opened the door:
"came back?"
Mu Tang rushed into his arms and rubbed him, then raised the sack in his hand like a treasure:
"look!!"
"What?"
Lu Yan took it and opened it and looked at it. There was a mess of seasonings and some strange dry goods in the bag.
Mu Tang's face was filled with pride:
"I scanned those houses again and found a lot of spices! With these, you can make delicious food for me!!"
Lu Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Sure enough, the foodie only had food in his mind, but he still touched Mu Tang's head with his hand and praised:
“Good performance!”
The two people and the atmosphere in the room were completely opposite.
Only then did Mu Tang realize that the atmosphere in the house seemed to be wrong. He looked at Lin Wanwan and Ren Yu standing in the corner of the room with gloomy faces, and asked curiously in a low voice:
"What's going on here?"
Lu Yan lowered her head and sorted the things she brought back one by one, and said without raising her head:
"It's okay, the kids are quarreling and getting into trouble."
Lu Yan raised his head and looked at Mu Tang, and found that her whole body was gray again after going out, and her face was stained. She couldn't help but sigh:
"come over."
Then he poured a basin of water, dipped a towel in the water and wiped it on Mu Tang's face.
Mu Tang obediently closed her eyes and raised her face. After wiping her face, she raised her hand very consciously.
Lu Yan also grabbed her hand and started to wipe it as usual.
The atmosphere here was so warm that Qin Zhen only felt his eyes hurt when he looked at it. He would never have imagined that Lu Yan would be filled with "love" and take care of someone so meticulously.
After all, in his memory, Lu Yan was always cold and hard. He would beat people until they cried for their father and mother, and he was very resolute in doing things and never showed any mercy.
"Damn, it's already like this, and you still say she's not your wife." Qin Zhen cursed bitterly: "You're just pretending, you're so thick-skinned!"
After a while, he suddenly remembered Yan Mingxu who was still shoveling soil outside. He rolled his eyes and laughed maliciously:
"You brat, I'm asking you to be so stubborn that you won't admit it. You won't admit it yourself, so don't blame me when the time comes!"
