Flood Apocalypse: Starting with a God-Tier Fishing Rod

Du Wei laughed, squatted down, and grabbed his hair with a smile.

"Alright, I'll give you a chance to prove your innocence!"

Du Wei waved his hand, and a burly man behind him handed him a meat scraper.

"Cut open your stomach yourself and take out the noodles so we can see! Whether it's one bowl or two, it'll be clear at a glance!"

"If I've wronged you, I'll compensate you with 5,000 points!"

With a loud bang.

Liu Bo's heart pounded like a drum, and his pupils instantly shrank to the size of pinpoints.

At that moment, all the surrounding noise disappeared, leaving only that sentence echoing in his mind.

Cut open the abdomen?

This isn't about him proving his innocence at all!

This is clearly a death sentence!

"Oh, Your Honor..."

Liu Bo's body went limp, and he collapsed into the muddy water, clutching Du Wei's trouser legs tightly with both hands, pleading desperately.

"Sir, please spare my life! I... I just acted foolishly... I don't want to die!"

Du Wei glanced at him, then looked up and turned his gaze to the onlookers.

What he said next was not only aimed at Liu Bo, but also at making an example of the entire slum!

"You're really starving in this slum, we'll give you food!"

"But if it's stealing, cheating, or robbing!"

Du Wei's lips twitched slightly, his eyes turning icy: "Then I'm sorry, but the cave magic will be used!"

These four words struck Liu Bo's heart like a hammer blow, leaving him shaken and panicked.

He knew that if he didn't back down now, the meat scraper would really cut open his stomach and pull out his intestines.

do not care!

Anyway, even if the ordeal is painful, it's still much better than seppuku!

"I admit it! I admit it!!"

Liu Bo banged his head against the stone, blood streaming down his face, his voice shrill and desperate: "Sir! I ate two bowls of noodles! I was blinded by greed! I paid for one bowl, and then stole the other! Please don't cut me open! I confess!"

The entire audience erupted in uproar.

The group of refugees instantly looked at them with disdain and retreated.

Du Wei chuckled, bent down, and gently patted Liu Bo's cheek.

"You admit it? That's the right thing to do!"

Liu Bo breathed a sigh of relief, thinking he had escaped a disaster.

Du Wei straightened up, and the smile on his face vanished instantly.

"Guards! Prepare the cave!"

Dengdengdeng.

A shirtless butcher with a muscular build walked up.

He pulled a crescent-shaped boning knife from his belt at the back of his waist, the blade scraping against his cuff with a chilling scraping sound.

Liu Bo was so frightened that his eyes rolled back and his whole body convulsed uncontrollably.

"My...my lord! I admit it all! Didn't you say it was a cave-like method...?"

"yes!"

Du Wei nodded matter-of-factly. "The rule of the Cave Law is: if you want to be respectable, then we'll let you be respectable. If you don't want to be respectable, then we'll help you be respectable!"

"After all, everything needs to be based on evidence!"

In that instant, Liu Bo felt a fear he had never experienced before.

The people in this slum are all devils!

They're all ruthless demons who devour people without spitting out the bones!

He instinctively wanted to back away.

But the butcher's large hands pressed down on his shoulders, and the blade touched his stomach.

Liu Bo was so scared that he wet his pants.

Just as the butcher raised his knife to strike, the women who had previously demanded special privileges suddenly rushed forward to stop him.

"stop!!"

The pretty woman's chest heaved violently as she used Liu Bo's ordeal to accuse Du Wei and the others in a shrill voice.

"You're going to kill someone just because of two bowls of noodles? How are you any different from those defense forces who treated us like livestock before?!"

"that is!"

The woman next to her, whose face was covered in acne scars, rushed up and shouted at the female refugees watching around her.

"Sisters! Open your eyes and look!"

"This is the consequence of these filthy men being in power! Today they dare to disembowel someone over such a trivial matter, tomorrow they'll slaughter us like pigs!"

"Putting aside the fact that he cheated on his family, doesn't the management of this slum bear any responsibility whatsoever?!"

This resounding rhetorical question left many people stunned.

Leaving aside the facts?

What are we going to talk about then?

Want to date?

But it was this kind of inflammatory rhetoric that made people lose their minds.

Among the crowd, many female migrants began to whisper among themselves, their eyes becoming hesitant.

After all, in such a chaotic world, the weak are always more likely to empathize with each other, because it concerns their own interests, let alone emotions that are deliberately manipulated.

Du Wei's face turned completely dark.

Where did these crazy women come from?

In this day and age, there are still people who engage in boxing, incite conflict between men and women, and promote gender division?

Something's wrong!!

His eyes scanned back and forth between Liu Bo and the women.

"So they were accomplices!"

A ruthless glint flashed in Du Wei's eyes. He swung his hand sharply, "Don't listen to their nonsense! Anyone who dares to cause trouble in the slums, take them all down! Anyone who resists, kill them without mercy!"

Several law enforcement officers immediately raised steel pipes and surrounded them.

Upon seeing this, the pretty woman screamed wildly and rolled around on the ground.

"Come on! If you've got the guts, kill us all! Let everyone see the ugly faces of you bunch of scoundrels!"

The situation was on the verge of spiraling out of control.

Just then.

A calm voice rang out from behind, cutting through the noisy crowd.

"Wow, it's quite lively here!"

"What kind of melodramatic 'boxer's awakening' drama are they planning to stage for me?"

Everyone turned to look.

Lu Fan, along with Zhang Xiaomin and the others, had just returned from work outside.

He put his hands in his pockets, looked at the mess, and raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Mr. Lu, you're back!" Du Wei approached respectfully.

Before Lu Fan could reply, the woman, who had already gone mad, rushed forward, pointed at Lu Fan's nose, and started yelling, "Is this the rule you set? For a mere bowl of noodles, you're willing to cut someone's stomach in public?"

Lu Fan: "?"

The woman didn't give Lu Fan a chance to speak at all; she puffed out her chest and stood on the moral high ground.

"You have so much food stored up in your warehouses, and you even have fish soup to drink every day. You're clearly so wealthy, why are you haggling over a single bite of food with someone who's about to starve to death?!"

"He stole food because he was hungry! You have the means but didn't let him eat his fill, that's your dereliction of duty! Instead of reflecting on your own stinginess, you even resorted to murder to establish your authority!?"

The surrounding refugees reacted in various ways upon hearing this.

Apart from the experienced vagrants, the newcomers all revealed a desire to rob the rich and help the poor.

Seeing that Lu Fan didn't speak, the woman became even more arrogant.

"And another thing! Do you know how precious women are among the survivors right now? We are the hope for the continuation of humanity! We are the most valuable resource in this camp!"

She pointed to the strangely shaped women behind her, her face full of grievance.

"We girls are already delicate. If we develop psychological trauma from this, who will be in the mood to work for you in the future? Who will be willing to have your children?"

"You're ruining the future of the slums!"

Lu Fan sneered, "Then what do you think we should do?"

She stood with her hands on her hips, waved her finger in front of Lu Fan, and her tone became greedy.

"First, from now on, men and women must live separately in the slums! Those stinky men are covered in sweat and stench; I feel like throwing up if I'm crammed in with them! We'll be living in those newly built gray brick buildings, and it has to be an all-female dormitory. Any man who dares to come in will be severely punished!"

"Secondly, we girls are physically weak and can't do heavy work like carrying bricks or digging mud! From now on, all the dirty and tiring work will be done by men! We'll only be responsible for the delicate work that requires brainpower! And the points must be doubled! Because we need to take care of our bodies and prepare for the propagation of humankind!"

"And a third point! As compensation for the emotional distress you caused us today, you need to give each of us five potatoes and a week of paid leave! And ideally, you should guarantee to provide us with hot water for showers every day from now on!"

After saying all this in one breath, she raised her chin and looked at Lu Fan.

"Is this request unreasonable? We're doing this so the slums can get better! If you're a man and you don't even have this much magnanimity, what kind of leader are you?!"

At this moment, the entire venue fell into a deathly silence.

Even many women who were working were stunned.

Just when everyone thought Lu Fan would fly into a rage.

"Slap! Slap!"

Lu Fan actually smiled, slowly clapped his hands, and nodded repeatedly: "I used to really think that the antagonism between men and women in this world was very serious..."

"But now I realize that the real conflict lies between people and idiots!"

After saying that, Lu Fan waved his hand, and Zhang Xiaomin instantly led the group to subdue the female boxers.

Lu Fan cleared his throat and gave a sly smile: "Since you've made a request, wouldn't it make me seem petty if I didn't grant it?"
