A series of \"click\" sounds rang out, locking him firmly in a spread-eagle position.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uncle Ding! I was wrong! I don't want to die!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Peng was still shouting, but the game had already begun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Crack!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The nail gun in the mechanism wasn't much different from daily-use nail guns, and the sound wasn't very obvious, but the speed at which the nails flew out was still terrifying enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a \"thud,\" a nail easily penetrated the target area above and to the left of Zhang Peng's head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ahhhh!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only good news was that the nail gun's firing frequency was slightly lower than the iron maiden's needle piercing frequency in Cell 4.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this also made Zhang Peng's wait even longer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The second one.

Ahhhhh!!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Peng screamed at the top of his lungs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Wenqiang felt very irritated.

Among these four people, Zhang Peng was the one who most deserved to die.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the other three each had their own sins, at least they hadn't directly and seriously violated the law.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Zhang Peng in contrast - theft, robbery, lazy and worthless, not only contributing nothing to society but only bringing disaster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he hadn't impulsively decided to rob and beat up Ding Wenqiang, that delivery worker wouldn't have died.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, Zhang Peng should bear the main responsibility! He was the real culprit who killed that delivery worker!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Wenqiang felt like vomiting just thinking about Zhang Peng's ugly, fawning face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Zhang Peng hadn't been fanning the flames from the sidelines, he wouldn't have been so hasty to send Wang Yongxin and Gao Zhankui in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Ding Wenqiang came to Cell 5 again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Peng was scared out of his wits, \"Uncle Ding!
