"You can obviously put all the blame on yourself and lie that everything was ordered by you and had nothing to do with Lu Mingchen.

But you don't, you want me to take the blame, and you want to help your dear brother get rid of me as a stumbling block.

I have to say, you do pretend to be very similar. You are obviously as selfish as your brother at heart, but you still pretend to be pitiful and innocent and being controlled by others. "

Song Jinhe's words were like a knife inserted into Qian Chengfeng's chest, piercing through his poor disguise and concealment, and pulling out the darkness in his heart and placing it clearly in front of him.

"No, I will help you get out, I really will, I won't let you die.

As long as the public opinion subsides after a while, you can still enter the Xiling Safety Zone to live again. Even if you can no longer be the person in charge of the planting area, you can still live as an ordinary person.

I never wanted to cut off your life. "

Song Jinhe listened to his ridiculous words, took two steps forward and kicked the person away, slamming him against the wall and vomiting out a ball of blood.

"If you say so high-sounding, why don't you let your brother resign from the post of district mayor! Then he will still be able to live as an ordinary survivor!"

She walked up to Qian Chengfeng and touched it up again, and laughed when she saw his face wrinkled in pain.

"Why not do this? Because you know, even if you leave the safe zone and come back, you can only be a street rat that everyone shouts and beats.

Look, you are so selfish, why do you have to package yourself so kind and noble? "

The light in Qian Chengfeng's eyes dimmed, and he knew that everything was irreversible. Whether it was him or Lu Mingchen, they had fallen into the abyss and could never climb back up.

With some disgust, Song Jinhe took out a wet wipe and wiped the bloody soles of his shoes. Song Jinhe stepped back and walked to the door of the hut.

"Wait for your dear brother to come to you. I think he will be very angry. After all, you blocked his escape route and turned everything into an unchangeable outcome.

I originally wanted to watch him be tortured and collapse step by step, but who would have thought that you helped me such a big favor.

I just wanted to use this recording as my own trump card. Who would have thought that you would ask me to take it out immediately? "

Song Jinhe blinked, turned the door handle and left.

At this moment, the crowd outside the studio was noisy, and the people who came to watch the excitement were discussing very excitedly, and their words were full of criticism against Lu Mingchen.

District Governor's Office.

It could be heard in every corner of the broadcast safety zone of the high platform, and Lu Mingchen's mood fell from the clouds to the bottom when Song Jinhe played the recording.

He was finished, and so was Qian Chengfeng.

Lu Mingchen fell down on the somewhat worn office chair and stared blankly at the thick fog outside the window, like falling into an ice cave.

When did it start? He also knew that he seemed to have changed.

When Mingming first became the district chief, he was only thinking about benefiting the Xiling Safety Zone. His biggest wish was to help the safety zone develop and grow so that the survivors could live a better life.

But slowly, he seemed to be going crazy. He was extremely eager for power and could not stand anyone speaking against him. He would rather lose the interests of the survivors in the safe zone and get rid of those unsociable voices.

It has only been a few short months since he became the district chief, but his state of mind has undergone earth-shaking changes.

How many survivors has he indirectly killed in these months?

It seems that there are countless people. The skeletons of people who died of starvation on the streets have rotted and stinked. There have been many violent conflicts in various districts due to improper governance, resulting in countless deaths and injuries.

For his own rights, he even tried his best to suppress the planting areas, watching more and more people starve to death, completely ignoring those who were skinny.

He knew he was wrong, but he didn't want to change it.

The struggle for power must have victims, and living in this cannibalistic apocalypse may not be much better than death. I didn’t know how long I had been sitting in the office, but the door handle was gently turned.

Lu Mingchen didn't raise his head, and the next moment a hand as dry as a branch clung to his face.

"Achen, go and apologize. You have killed many people. These are all things you should face."

Hearing the familiar voice, Lu Mingchen's cold mask completely shattered. He looked up helplessly, only to see his skinny and tired mother and his thin and helpless sister.

"Why are you here? The fog is so heavy outside, what if you get injured?

I'll send someone to take you back, don't worry. "

He forced out a smile, but Mrs. Lu closed her eyes and let out a long sigh.

"I heard Xiaofeng's speech and the recording. Do you still want to lie to me now?"

Lu Mingchen opened his mouth, then covered his ferocious face with his hands, and buried his head in his arms helplessly.

"Mom, go back, I will take care of everything."

"Can you really handle it? Ah Chen, Mom is not a fool. I also know what you did after you became the district chief.

How come Xu Hu, the previous district chief of the trading area, was killed outside the safe zone by your design? Do you think I don’t know?

There were a lot of young kids who went out with him, teenagers and twenties, and they were all implicated and died.

Don't they have parents? Don’t have any relatives?

Ah Chen, have you ever thought about these things? I will be sad if you are hurt. Where are their parents? Your own son and daughter died unexpectedly, how do you let those old people live? "

Mrs. Lu's voice was choked with sobs: "Do you know how many families you have destroyed? They were all crushed to death by your own hands, and all the power of your district chief was used on innocent ordinary people."

Lu Mingchen covered his head in pain, feeling dizzy.

"Mom, everything has happened, what's the use of talking about it now?

You go quickly, I will handle these things, Ming Yuan, take mom home quickly. "

Lu Mingyuan stood aside without saying a word, just looking at him quietly with helplessness in his eyes.

"I won't go back."

Old Mrs. Lu banged the crutch in her hand: "The most important thing you should do now is apologize to the survivors in the entire safety zone.

Mom has had enough of this kind of wealthy life. If you give up the position of district mayor, it would be great for our family to go out and rent a small house to live in. "

Lu Mingchen raised his head irritably and sighed helplessly when he saw his mother's tear-stained face.

“Mom, do you know that every injection of insulin you are taking now was obtained for you by virtue of my authority as the district chief?

What happens to your insulin if I come down from this position? What will happen to your body if you live in a house without heating? "

Old Mrs. Lu trembled her lips and wiped the tears from her face with her skinny fingertips: "I don't need these.

I know you are filial to me, but those things are stained with innocent people's blood. Mom doesn't want to use them anymore, or it may be my life if she dies.

Our family has lived a stable life for too long, and we have forgotten the way we came.

Ah Chen, let go. Mom will walk this road with you again, okay? "
