He might want to take further action. Everyone, be careful.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This back and forth made everyone present look uncomfortable. If one or two people can die, it means four or five people can die.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next person to die could be any one of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Besides those two, did any of you leave alone just now?\" Su Changxing immediately asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiu Jing glanced at Su Changxing and said, \"We were all in the same room, and Huang Keying had just left the room when we heard the scream.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing meticulously surveyed the people around him, using \"True Knowledge\" to measure their general mental state, deducing from another angle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Heart’s Doubt]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Frightened and Unsettled]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Heavy]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Proud]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>······\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wait a minute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What is this \"Proud\"?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing turned his head to look back and saw that bald man slightly bowing his head at the back, as if lost in thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know who it is.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing gestured to Wu Qingsheng toward the bald man at the back, definitively saying, \"Hmm, it should be him. Go ahead and deal with it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Qingsheng looked surprised but didn’t doubt Su Changxing’s judgment in the slightest. He immediately shouted, \"Fatty, come over here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bald man was called over, looking bewildered, and hurriedly walked up, saying, \"Boss, what’s going on?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pa~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Qingsheng slapped him across the face, the tremendous force knocking him to the ground, coldly saying:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You killed him, didn’t you? Killing isn’t the problem, but sneakily killing our own is a big issue.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bald man said in terror, \"I didn’t do it, Boss. Everyone can vouch for me; I was over there the whole time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could finish, Wu Qingsheng slashed at his neck, the blade cutting through the skin and wedging into the bone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He saw through people easily; the first expression the bald man made showed he was pretending, the smell of deceit inescapable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But, there was no blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bald man showed a mad grin, suddenly lunging forward to hug Wu Qingsheng, laughing maniacally:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re never off, Boss; you even saw through this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Qingsheng flipped the bald man onto the ground, then slashed again, cutting his body in two, immediately after which some dry branches grew rapidly from the bald man’s body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bald man’s body swelled visibly, becoming blurry and unreal, like a black projection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing had just placed his hand on the revolver when he saw the monk running over, eyes shining with golden light, punching the bald man’s body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The clear sound of impact echoed in the corridor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bald man immediately ceased to breathe, the dry twigs dropping to the floor in pieces, turning into black ash-like fragments, no longer moving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The monk turned, his expression solemn, and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is the same as those demon puppets, but hidden very deeply. It’s hard to discover without exposure.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing raised an eyebrow and said, \"You mean to say other people might also be parasitized by this thing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The monk nodded and said, \"Yes, I sensed a sinister presence around, but didn’t expect it to be such a thing. It had been parasitized since its time in the settlement.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is very bad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The monk had almost been parasitized by that thing before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Qingsheng, nonchalantly, said to Huang Longhu:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Clean this place up; this smell is really unpleasant. Those who should sleep at night should still sleep, and those who can’t sleep can stay on watch.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qu Zhaoyu and the others all looked uncertain and suspicious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman with the fair face regretfully said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I should have left here; these people seemed weird, if we had left then, she wouldn’t have died.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiu Jing frowned and said, \"Saying so much now is useless. Later, half of the people sleep and half keep watch.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hall returned to silence again, and until the sun rose the next day, no more deaths occurred, and no further incidents happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing felt the sunlight on his face, slowly opened his eyes, only to see the monk with his head lowered, his expression becoming more grim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took a swig of water, asking, \"Hmm? What’s wrong?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The monk, gravely, said in a low voice:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I feel that strange aura still exists, and it’s even stronger. I’m afraid there are still people with problems... Although many escaped from the settlement, that may not be a good thing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing paused for a moment, not expecting the monk to think this far, and said in a slacker manner:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There’s nothing that can be done; some things can’t be changed by human power, and there’s no need to struggle.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The monk hesitated, then said, \"Donor Su, you accomplished what no one else could. Is it really appropriate to say this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing pursed his lips and chuckled lightly: \"This makes no difference? We still can’t control our fate, we can only barely hang on.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The monk’s eyes regained their original clarity, speaking earnestly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ll post a notice later to warn others, to prevent more deaths.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing nodded and said, \"Hmm, good idea.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qu Zhaoyu and others not only didn’t leave but even joined Huang Longhu and the others in cleaning the hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Su, breakfast is ready, come have some.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Qingsheng sat by the campfire, holding a bowl, and shouted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing sat beside him and asked, \"Hmm? Why haven’t they left?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Qingsheng glanced back and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They said they wanted to join us. I thought about it; because of us, people died yesterday, so I agreed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Qingsheng probably had enough food too, and had no qualms about taking in people. With enough food, the more people, the better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Qingsheng took a sip of white rice porridge from the bowl and said in a low voice:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The main thing is, among these people, only a few show signs of corpse change; the chances of survival are high.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing nodded, reminding:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The monk confirmed, there’s still someone parasitized among you. They might not even know. Be careful.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Qingsheng was silent for a while, then said, \"We must find a way to root them out, or there will be a problem sooner or later.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Changxing shrugged, somewhat helpless, and said, \"Monk, can you find out specifically who it is? I have no way.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The monk shook his head and said, \"No, I can only sense a faint presence, like a seed, very weak, about to sprout but not yet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying that, he began eating the food in his bowl with large bites. He didn’t eat yesterday and was very hungry now.\u003C\u002Fp>",1126,"2026-06-05T22:29:48.976Z",1,"novelbin.me","7363c1b8693409f2fa590ebff2a128613e313e8964aad006a403d765c11f6a9a","global-game-i-have-portable-store-chapter-400","global-game-i-have-portable-store-chapter-398",584,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fglobal-game-i-have-portable-store-cover.jpg"]
