108 I’m Very Reasonable
The battle lasted for 40 minutes. In the end, only a dozen or so animals escaped when they saw that the situation was not right. The rest were all lying in the courtyard, not breathing. It looked like the people had won, but more than half of them had died. Du Yue and He Xing did not rush out of the room until they saw Captain Zuo leading a group of people out.
The yard was in a mess. The snow that was originally white had been dyed dark red by the blood of animals. On the empty night, it was particularly glaring. Zuo Mingdong ordered his men to clean up the bodies. He walked to He Xing and Du Yue and nodded slightly to them. “Thank you for your help just now. Thank you.” If it were not for He Xing and Du Yue’s help, the number of casualties would have been even higher.
Just as He Xing was about to speak, someone stumbled over and said in a resentful voice, “Captain Zuo! You’re giving preferential treatment here! Why were they given guns? Why weren’t we given any weapons to defend ourselves? If we had guns, we wouldn’t have gotten injured during the day and so many of our comrades wouldn’t have died!”
Du Yue could not be more familiar with this voice. It was the woman from this morning. To be honest, Du Yue had seen many stupid people, but this was the first time she had seen someone as brainless as her. Zuo Mingdong’s face was unhappy as he said in a deep voice, “Who told you that I gave them their guns?”
“If you didn’t give them the guns, where did they get them from?” As soon as the woman finished speaking, someone else walked over.
“Captain Zuo, the situation just now was too dangerous. Many of our comrades were killed or injured. Those who survived are recovering from fright. Qi Qi has also received a fright, and that’s why she sounds a little agitated. Please don’t mind the actions of a young girl like her.”
The person who spoke had a soft and weak tone, sounding just like a hypocritical two-faced b*tch. The moment she spoke, Du Yue could tell that it was Wang Tong’s voice.
As Wang Tong spoke, she had already walked to everyone’s side. “Captain Zuo, what Qi Qi said just now was crude but reasonable. When we encountered these ferocious wild animals, we didn’t have any weapons on us, so we could only let them slaughter us. If we were also equipped with guns, perhaps we wouldn’t have lost so many of our comrades. Captain Zuo, don’t you think so? The most important thing is that you’re the leader and our pillar of support. You have to be fair, or else I’m afraid everyone will be disheartened.” Wang Tong’s words were sincere and earnest as if every word she said was for Zuo Mingdong’s sake.
Du Yue was speechless. She had thought that Wang Tong was just a simple b*tch, but she did not expect her to be a wolf wearing sheep’s clothing. Unfortunately, it was freezing cold outside. Du Yue really could not be bothered to watch her act. Du Yue glanced at her indifferently. “Are your ears stuffed with trash? Captain Zuo has made it clear that he didn’t give us our guns.”
Wang Tong was stunned. “Captain Zuo didn’t give them to you? Then where did you get them from? Guns are prohibited in our country. Your behavior is…”
Du Yue sneered. “I didn’t expect you to be a law-abiding good young woman. Why aren’t you saying that these wild animals need to be protected, then? You’re even so eager to hunt them.”
“We just want to protect ourselves.”
“No matter what I say, you’ll insist that you’re right. You’re really good at practicing double standards.”
“I… That’s not true!” Wang Tong’s eyes were filled with tears, and her voice was choked with sobs. “I don’t know what I did wrong. You’ve been targeting me since the first time we met. You’re such a bully.”
Du Yue turned the gun in her hand. “Bully? I have no interest in bullying others. The only thing I’m interested in is… killing!” As she spoke, Du Yue moved to Wang Tong’s side and pressed the gun in her hand against her forehead. “I’ll give you a piece of advice out of goodwill. Anyone with a brain will not be fooled by your little tricks. I’ve been tolerating you for a long time. If you continue to talk nonsense in front of me, I don’t mind sending you on your way and letting you reincarnate. Learn how to speak to others, do you understand?”
When Du Yue spoke, her tone was calm, but Wang Tong was so scared that she could not stop trembling. After trembling for a long time, she finally managed to squeeze out a sentence. “I understand.”
“That’s good.” Du Yue retracted the gun from between Wang Tong’s eyebrows. “I’m a reasonable person. As long as you stop causing trouble, I won’t make things difficult for you.”
Wang Tong looked at Du Yue and did not dare to speak anymore. Her body trembled even more violently.
