Chapter 267: Chapter 212: Shrouded in Mystery (Three-in-One Chapter)

"We’re all honest farmers, we wouldn’t dare oppose the government."

Wang Deming’s face turned pale with fear and he hurriedly explained.

"Oh?"

Wang Hao slightly frowned, feeling that this matter didn’t seem like something Wang Deming would orchestrate, but...

"If it wasn’t you, then isn’t all this too much of a coincidence? You got us all drunk tonight, then the house caught fire, and our convoy was attacked by monsters."

Wang Hao pointed at the office building and said calmly:

"If I’m not mistaken, those monsters were probably locked up in that building before, right? Luring our convoy here was likely part of a conspiracy, wasn’t it?"

"Oh, Chief Wang, you’ve misunderstood, really misunderstood!"

Wang Deming patted his thigh anxiously, "We wouldn’t dare! Getting you drunk was just our rural hospitality! We’re all law-abiding citizens!

We wouldn’t dare oppose the government!"

Wang Hao drew his pistol and pointed it at his head:

"I’ll give you one more chance. Speak honestly. If you think I’m a fool, don’t blame me for not giving you a chance."

Seeing the pistol, everyone instinctively took two steps back.

For ordinary people, the intimidation of a gun is still immense.

Even compared to superpower users, they fear guns more due to deep-rooted beliefs.

"Sigh... Fine, I’ll tell the truth."

Wang Deming’s expression changed as he let out a long sigh:

"We did intentionally get you drunk, but we meant no harm. We just wanted to extract some truths while you were intoxicated,

because we couldn’t tell if what you were saying about the Settlement Camp was true and if it was really that good. Moreover... we wanted to hold something against you."

"Something against us?"

Wang Hao furrowed his brow, not understanding what the old man meant for a moment.

Wang Deming blushed as he braced himself and said:

"We arranged for a few women to sneak into your rooms late at night and take some photos..."

"What the hell!"

Wang Hao was shocked.

These old foxes are really rotten to the core!

They actually wanted to play the scandal game with him.

Although he found their actions laughable, considering it’s the end of the world, what’s the use of such tricks?

However, in their perspective, these tactics are useful.

After all, Wang Hao and his group are military personnel associated with the Settlement Camp, bound by discipline.

If such a scandal escalated, it would surely lead to disciplinary action.

Unbelievable!

People often say don’t underestimate a village head, and now it seems there’s truth to that.

"Then how do you explain these monsters?"

Wang Hao asked, pointing to the monsters that were about to be eliminated.

"Those monsters were indeed a trump card we prepared, and guiding you here was just a precaution.

If you turned out to be bad people intending harm to our village, we would’ve unleashed these monsters to deal with you, but it wasn’t us who released them!

It’s just our means of self-defense!"

Wang Deming said with a mournful face.

"This..."

Wang Hao was taken aback, as what Wang Deming said made some sense.

"Is there a superpower user in your village?"

"Huh?"

Upon hearing Wang Hao mention a superpower user, the old men were taken aback, their eyes flickering with confusion.

Indeed!

There is a superpower user here.

"Speak, who is it and what superpower does he have?"

Wang Hao’s gaze was sharp as he looked at them.

He felt there’s a high chance the superpower user was behind this incident.

Wang Deming and the others looked at each other, troubled and reluctant to speak.

Wang Hao’s expression turned stern as he loaded a bullet into the chamber.

"Speak or not? If you don’t, I’ll shoot."

"I’ll talk, I’ll talk."

One old man quickly caved in: "There’s indeed a superpower user in our village. His name is Wang Xiaobing. He dropped out after middle school and hung around with troublemakers from the neighboring village. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

When the apocalypse came, he gained a superpower, incredibly fast, like the wind, and helped the village solve many problems."

Wang Hao: "Where is he?"

"He doesn’t live in the village. He gathered some underlings and lives in a mountain villa outside the village. Out of concern for his kin, and because his parents are here, he’d show up to help if the village were in danger, and usually trades for some meat and grain."

Wang Deming sighed deeply and said helplessly.

In his words, there was a hint of affection for Wang Xiaobing.

Wang Hao put away his pistol.

He slightly furrowed his brow.

According to Wang Deming, Wang Xiaobing shouldn’t have any reason to target them.

"Wait a minute!"

Wang Hao’s eyes suddenly lit up, as if realizing something.

"Wang Hao!"

Bai Muran’s voice came through, interrupting Wang Hao’s thoughts.

"Did you get into a fight?"

Seeing Bai Muran’s somewhat tattered clothes, Wang Hao raised an eyebrow.

"I encountered a superpower user. The guy was extremely fast. Although I injured him, he still managed to escape."

Bai Muran frowned as he glanced at Wang Deming and the others behind Wang Hao:

"What’s the situation on your end?"

Wang Hao briefly explained what had happened to Bai Muran.

"Oh?"

Bai Muran smirked:

"Looks like this Wang Xiaobing doesn’t want you to leave the village!"

Impressive!

Wang Hao couldn’t help but mentally applaud Bai Muran. Such an experienced guy, seeing through Wang Xiaobing’s intent at a glance.
