Mental Illness Evolution Manual - Chapter 89

“Are you sure we’re not going?” Yan Xianchuan looked at the round apple-shaped bomb in her arms, she asked with a hint of reluctance.

At this moment, it was completely silent. There was no wind, no chirping of insects. The lamp in front of the church door emitted a soft glow. In the alley not far away, a few drunkards were swaying, holding bottles of wine. No one noticed anything happening here.

What a perfect night to do something bad!

Yan Xianchuan was eager to get started, but Lu Mingqiu shook her head and gently stopped her, “No.”

“We need to maintain a balance between us and the church. It’s not time to break with them yet. We’ll wait.” Her gaze was deep and far-reaching, “There will be a time for you to go all out.”

When they got news from Yuecheng, she had a feeling that it would be the most valuable information they had ever received.

“Let’s go,” Lu Mingqiu tapped Yan Xianchuan’s hand, signaling her to put away her weapon. She put it in her backpack.

The latter sighed deeply, she walked two steps and looked back, showing her reluctance. Lu Mingqiu suspected that she was pretending, because when she said that she could compensate her with another box of macarons, the other person immediately calmed down.

The Resistance and the church had reached an agreement, but Azberto didn’t know about it. He was still following his plan, sending troops to attack major cities.

The Federation’s legions each had their own territory, not all troops could be mobilized to wipe out the rebels. Although the Federation still had an advantage in terms of numbers and logistical support, the rebels were numerous. Even if a legion killed one person every second, it would take them a month or two.

The rebels could stall, the Federation could stall, but those gangsters couldn’t.

Azberto sent people to infiltrate major cities to assassinate them. The guards stationed there and the troops sent by the Federation were not very enthusiastic about protecting the people.

They focused more on ordinary people and wealthy families, rather than gangsters.

Seeing that their lives were in danger, they had the support of the army, but they couldn’t get any protection. These people quickly collapsed when death approached.

They were furious, they cursed online, vented their fear, they even said that the Federation’s army and the rebels were in cahoots, they were just trying to get rid of them. They said that fourth-class citizens had no human rights, what was the difference between them and criminals? They were all killing people!

On the other hand, those who were protected by the guards didn’t think so. Before the war started, they lived a good life, but their personal safety was always not guaranteed. Why? Wasn’t it because of these gangsters, these lawless desperadoes? They were criminals to begin with, almost everyone had blood on their hands. Now they were dead, it was just paying for their crimes, what right did they have to demand that the army protect them?

They didn’t deserve it!

The two groups started a wave of online arguments, it was a heated debate, it couldn’t be calmed down. Death approaching would naturally amplify people’s emotions, making reason take a backseat.

Why should they send a team to protect this bunch of trash? Wouldn’t that mean less attention for them? Why?

These trash didn’t contribute anything to society, they were parasites, pests. It was good that they were dead.

If it were normal times, if someone dared to openly post insulting remarks about the gang, they would have been found and beaten up. But now they were too busy to take care of themselves, they didn’t have the energy to go after others.

But there were also crazy people who didn’t care about these things. Xue Lei was a clerk at a telecommunications company. The war hadn’t reached this city, so she had to continue working. One day, she was walking home from work when she suddenly felt a few people following her.

Xue Lei’s heart tightened, she silently reached for the gun in her handbag. She focused on guarding against the people behind her, but she didn’t pay attention to the front. When someone passed by her, he grabbed her right hand, covered her mouth, and dragged her directly into the alley.

She didn’t earn much money, she rented a house in a remote area, not on the bustling main road.

The moment she was dragged into the alley, Xue Lei’s eyes welled up with tears. She started to regret why she hadn’t spent more money, why she had rented this place. Thinking about the news she had seen, the fate of being dismembered and having her organs sold, she struggled hard, she made a muffled cry, hoping to make some noise.

A passerby passed by the entrance of the alley, he saw this, but he ran even faster.

Her heart grew colder.

The man dragged her into the alley, a few people surrounded her, their faces were ferocious. He let go of her hand, he spat, “You stinking bitch, why aren’t you screaming? Aren’t you good at screaming? Huh?”

“What do you want?” Xue Lei’s bag was snatched away and thrown on the ground. The light yellow exterior was immediately covered in dirty mud. Her heart was pounding, she tried to calm herself down.

The leader sneered, “What do we want? I’m here to see what the famous ‘Pineapple Bun Lover’ looks like. You’re so jumpy, you’re shouting everywhere that you want us little gangsters to die. Now that I’m standing in front of you, why don’t you do something?”

He swung a slap at her. Xue Lei felt a huge force coming at her, it was like a car had hit her. She was knocked against the wall uncontrollably, the pain came slowly.

Her white cheeks instantly swelled up, they were covered in bloodshot veins, even her teeth were loose.

Hearing his words, she realized what was going on.

Pineapple Bun Lover was her online name.

These people were here because of the things I had said online.

Thinking about this, she was going to soften and beg for mercy, she was going to say that she would give them money and they would leave. Xue Lei leaned against the wall and stood up straight, a sharp hatred flashed in her eyes.

“What? Did I say something wrong? You scum, you trash, what’s the point of you living? Have you ever done anything good? Besides spreading contraband, killing people, treating other people’s lives like air, what else can you do?”

“Does society need you? People live to create value. Do you think you have any value, any use? You’re just a bunch of bullies who are afraid of the strong. You’re trash!”

“People with backbone can do great things. You?” She sneered, her words full of sarcasm, “You can only be dogs for the tycoons. Now they’re busy saving their own lives, they don’t care about you. You’re not even wanted as dogs, you’re trash. You deserve to die!”

“You stinking bitch!” He was hit where it hurt, he was furious on the spot. He reached out and grabbed Xue Lei’s hair. She was pulled backwards, her scalp was tight and painful, but her expression was still mocking.

“F*** you!” He was like a balloon filled with air, he would explode with just a little spark. He grabbed Xue Lei’s hair viciously and slammed her head against the wall.

After only two hits, Xue Lei’s forehead was broken, blood flowed down her face. She didn’t beg for mercy, she even laughed intermittently, “You can only use force, you rely on your big fists, you’re a bully.”

The other two weren’t to be outdone, they were also furious. They were about to kick her, but they heard a few gunshots, accompanied by pain, the three of them fell to the ground, blood flowing everywhere.

Xue Lei looked towards the entrance of the alley, her heart still racing. A guard in uniform was holding a gun. Seeing that the criminals had been killed, he put away his weapon and ran over to her. He supported her, briefly assessed her injuries, and said, “I’ll take you to the hospital.”

Xue Lei had been hit several times, her head was spinning, she must have had a concussion. She was overjoyed to have escaped death, she grabbed the other person’s hand tightly and thanked him repeatedly, “Thank you, thank you!”

“Someone called the police, I was patrolling nearby,” the guard said.

Xue Lei walked to the entrance of the alley and saw a person standing not far away. It was the passerby who had run away quickly. Her eyes welled up, tears rolled down her cheeks.

Xue Lei’s experience wasn’t an isolated case. Gang members were desperadoes, they lived on the edge of the knife. There were many people who weren’t afraid of death. They were used to being arrogant and domineering, they couldn’t stand to have sand in their eyes. They had enjoyed the days when everyone was afraid of them and flattered them. How could they accept the current situation, where they were like rats crossing the street, everyone was shouting at them to die?

Xue Lei was lucky, she was saved unharmed. Many others were seriously injured, and many lost their lives.

Once these incidents fermented, the conflict intensified. Many people shouted at the Federation’s army to leave them alone, to let them die. After all, these people weren’t good people.

At this time, when the air was filled with gunpowder, Tan Yiyuan and his team took the initiative to receive a mission from the commander. They were going to Dingyang City to destroy the Black Tiger Gang.

After they finished the escort mission, they returned to Gaoshan City and rejoined their team.

The escort mission was originally a way for the church and Azberto to show goodwill. They deliberately exposed one of their bases, it was a way for them to hold each other’s cards, which would help their cooperation and facilitate trust.

Now that the cooperation was over, they naturally didn’t need to continue transporting things.

Azberto had already ordered the legions to disperse and infiltrate major cities, so their actions weren’t out of place.

The people who were selected for the personal guard had all been thoroughly investigated. The commander knew why they were taking the initiative to request this mission, but he still agreed.

There was no other reason, because of this cause and effect, they would definitely do their best. They wouldn’t need to be forced to do a good job.

The Black Tiger Gang was the local boss in Dingyang City. If they dealt with them, the remaining few would be easy to wipe out.

Xu Zhen was still in charge, they four people and five thousand soldiers went to Dingyang City. There was a commander-in-chief and a deputy commander in this group of soldiers.

The two of them didn’t have a good feeling about these four parachuted relatives. They were afraid that they would cause trouble and disobey orders. But Xu Zhen said, “You can give any orders, we will obey, but we have one request.”

Her gaze was cold, she said word by word, “We must participate in the operation to wipe out the Black Tiger Gang. Qian Hu’s life must be left to us.”

It wasn’t an unreasonable request, the commander agreed.

Dingyang City was also a big city, there was a lot of traffic every day, especially recently, it was even more crowded. People were coming and going non-stop. Their five thousand people were like a drop of water in the sea. As long as they entered in batches, they wouldn’t attract any attention.

Xu Zhen and the others were too familiar with this place, it was like they were familiar with their own home.

They also knew almost everything about the Black Tiger Gang. They saved the commander a lot of time collecting intelligence.

The second half of these four people’s lives could be said to have been lived only to kill Qian Hu. They knew too much about his personality and his preferences.

It had also snowed in Dingyang City. In the howling wind, Xu Zhen smiled slightly. She looked towards the direction of the Jinxiu Night City, her eyes were determined.

Qian Hu, your pathetic life will soon end.
