The End of the World Scavenger: I Win by Turning Waste into Treasure Chapter 18: I Want Her Dead

Two unfamiliar faces had walked up to Ma Yan’s side, and Lin Chu had a clear view of the outside scene again.

At this moment, the timid man was curled up on the ground, looking up at the several fierce men in front of him, his body trembling like a sieve.

He hadn’t left the house for six days, surviving solely on two nutrition drinks from the system gift pack, along with two more nutrition drinks and a piece of bread exchanged for 5 points.

To save, he split each drink into two portions, but he was still starving, and at that moment, his eyes were filled with stars.

He had been lying in bed, trying to forget his hunger, when suddenly the world spun, and he was dragged out, his mouth stuffed with rancid cloth.

Ma Yan looked at the timid man with some disgust.

He despised this type of man more than anyone else.

“Take the cloth out of his mouth.”

At Ma Yan’s command, the short, thin man controlling the timid man dared not disobey. He pinched the timid man’s face and whispered in his ear, “I’ll take the cloth out, but you mustn’t scream. Just answer whatever the boss asks, understand?”

Hearing that he could finally get rid of the disgusting cloth in his mouth, the timid man immediately nodded vigorously.

As soon as the cloth was removed, the timid man could no longer hold it in and gagged.

Ma Yan didn’t have time to wait for him. He took two steps forward, shoved the short, thin man aside, grabbed the timid man’s chin, and gritted his teeth as he growled, “Tell me, where did those two women go?”

“I… I don’t know,” the timid man said, nearly in tears. How would he know where the crazy woman had gone?

Seeing Ma Yan’s face darkening further, the timid man suddenly remembered something and quickly said, “A few days ago, I saw that crazy woman return with two sacks. She knocked me out and took my knife. I really don’t know where she went!”

Upon hearing this, Ma Yan’s expression finally softened a little.

“The crazy woman you’re talking about, what does she look like?”

The timid man hesitated, his lips trembling, his mind blank.

The man with glasses nearby turned his eyes and asked, “Is she short-haired, holding a large bone in her hand?”

“Yes, yes!” The timid man’s memory seemed to be jogged, and he nodded vigorously.

Ma Yan glanced at the short, thin man beside him, who immediately nodded, “Yes, boss, it’s that woman! I saw her with the bone beating Brother Feng!”

“You haven’t seen her again these past few days?” Ma Yan glared at the timid man on the ground.

“No, no, I haven’t seen her.” The timid man was too embarrassed to admit that he was too afraid to leave the house and risk running into the crazy woman again, let alone deal with her.

But when his shifting gaze met Ma Yan’s eyes, Ma Yan assumed he was deliberately hiding the woman’s whereabouts, and angrily snorted, “Still not telling the truth? Throw him out to feed the zombies!”

Hearing “feed the zombies,” the timid man panicked, grabbing Ma Yan’s thigh. “I’m not lying! I really haven’t seen her! I was afraid she would beat me again, so I didn’t even dare leave the house! I swear, I’m telling the truth!”

Ma Yan didn’t call for a stop. The short, thin man and another unfamiliar face dragged the timid man out. Just then, a pungent, foul odor wafted into everyone’s noses.

They looked toward the source of the smell and saw that the timid man’s pants had become wet, with faint yellow liquid dripping down.

At this point, Ma Yan was certain that the timid man wasn’t lying.

He looked slightly irritated, waved his hand, and said, “Shut his mouth and throw him out.”

No matter how much the timid man begged, Ma Yan remained unmoved.

Soon, the timid man was shoved back into the rancid cloth and dragged out.

The short, thin man looked at Ma Yan and said, “Boss, from what the coward said, it seems that the woman who killed Brother Feng is staying here. What should we do next?”

Ma Yan narrowed his eyes, staring directly at the partition where Lin Chu was hiding, his gaze filled with madness and hatred.

For a moment, Lin Chu felt as if his eyes pierced through the anti-theft door, making her feel like he could see her.

“Fengzi and Leizi cannot die in vain, and our injuries cannot be in vain either. Since we know she’s here, we’ll wait for her here!”

“I want her dead.”

Just after the two unfamiliar faces threw out the timid man, they entered and heard Ma Yan’s words. One of them’s eyes immediately turned red.

“We can’t let that filthy woman get away with this! Boss, I want to personally avenge my brother!”

“Leizi died to help us escape, and we must avenge him!” Another familiar face clenched his fists, gnashing his teeth as he growled.

Everything happening outside was seen by Lin Chu.

She now realized that the two familiar faces had numerous scratches and bruises on their hands.

From their conversation, Lin Chu roughly guessed that six days ago, when she cut the backup power to trap them in the elevator, it caused them quite a bit of trouble. As a result, someone named Leizi had died to help them escape.

Brother Feng and Leizi were likely brothers, with one of them being the brother of one of the men here.

She also recalled her encounter with Brother Feng and the short, thin man at the convenience store, and then killing Brother Feng. They probably thought she had followed the short, thin man to silence him but didn’t dare take action due to the number of people. So they kept following her.

After seeing them activate the backup power, she had deliberately cut the power to trap them in the elevator.

Lin Chu had to admit that these people had quite an imagination and had figured out most of the details.

Now, she was their number one target.

Due to the incident from years ago, Lin Chu had some understanding of Ma Yan’s character.

He had an inexplicable hatred for women, but as a leader, he valued brotherhood.

When his men died for him, he would certainly avenge them.

Moreover, he hated losing to women. Knowing that he had been tricked by a woman this time, he would dig through the earth to find her.

Although being targeted by these people was troublesome, Lin Chu didn’t regret what she had done that day.

If given another chance, she would do it again.

Now that her door was blocked, although she had enough food and water, her plan to stockpile food was about to be disrupted.

Thinking of this, Lin Chu couldn’t help but feel a bit displeased.

She stayed by the peephole, carefully observing their arrangements.

Ma Yan didn’t stand by the door himself but assigned the man whose brother had died, along with the short, thin man who had seen her face, to guard the door.

The others were taken by him to search for her whereabouts in the compound.

This arrangement worked in Lin Chu’s favor.

With only two people guarding the door, they couldn’t go without food or water, and considering their human needs, one of them would inevitably leave.

She just needed to wait patiently.
