A villainous girl created by paranoia

He took a deep breath and then turned to me and said.

"Looks like we're not getting any useful information. Sakura, I'll go rescue Ryo in a bit. You go ambush Lily, and if necessary..."

Sheng's eyes flickered slightly. He looked at the submachine gun in my hand, and then at Lily, who was standing to the side with her arms crossed.

My heart skipped a beat; I guessed what Sheng wanted to do.

“If necessary, we can shoot Lily.”

If you ask me if I would dare to do that... normally I wouldn't, after all, I'm neither a terrorist nor a thug.

But... if it's for Ling, or for life, I will shoot.

Heh, damn it, maybe I'm just not a good person to begin with.

After all, how could a good person do something like shooting someone?

"I'll do it."

After saying that, I was about to rush towards Lily with the submachine gun, but Sheng stopped me again.

"What happened during childbirth?"

He opened his mouth in response to my question, then gave me a look that was both funny and exasperated.

"Miss Sakura, I knew you weren't the sharpest little brain, but I didn't expect you to be this slow. Do you really intend to just rush through here like this?"

"What should we do if we don't rush over?"

"Look at the terrain here. If you rush over now, Lily and Hanamichi will definitely spot you. What will you do then? Shoot? Will you even be able to hit anyone?"

Shooting... I really don't have the confidence to hit the target, because I've never touched a gun in my life. I even refused when Sheng and Ling invited me to play first-person shooter games. After all, I think guns are just too violent.

As for why I accepted the gun? Because what Sheng was holding was a spiked club stained with the blood and flesh of zombies, which was far more violent than a gun.

"What should we do then? If this continues, Hanamichi is really going to cut off Ryo's limbs and then be killed by Lily."

That's why I wanted you to see the terrain!

Upon hearing this, I frowned and looked at the surrounding terrain.

This vacant lot is actually the foundation of the building project. Next to it are three rows of unfinished buildings that are only half-built, which is probably the first phase of the project. This vacant lot is probably the second phase of the project that has not yet started.

The open space was surrounded by piles of construction waste, which were overgrown with weeds and looked like they hadn't been tended to for a long time.

However, what's strange is that there are no weeds growing in that open space? And the soil on the ground looks very firm, as if it had been pressed down by some huge heavy object.

Could a spaceship have stopped here before?

This irresponsible thought only lingered in my mind for a moment before I continued to observe the surrounding terrain.

As mentioned before, there are three rows of unfinished buildings here, and those unfinished buildings seem to have been demolished, with many places having holes and some building materials lying haphazardly on the ground.

Meanwhile, Lily was in the shade of an unfinished building. Although it was summer, the weather wasn't hot. Why was she seeking shade?

I can't figure it out; it's probably just a personal habit.

However, none of that is important. What is important is that behind Lily at this moment is a large pile of collapsed building materials.

Maybe I can... follow the construction debris around to the back of the building, and then sneak out from the pile of building materials to ambush Lily.

After thinking it through, I looked at Sheng, and he seemed to read my thoughts in my eyes, so he nodded at me.

“You seem to have figured out what to do. Well then, I’ll rush out in a minute. Sakura, get close to Lily as soon as possible, and then... kill her.”

Hanamichi Karen has no more killings left, so she might injure us, but she will never kill us, because she can't do it; if she did, she would die too.

As for the possibility of her going crazy and retaliating... that's possible, so while Ling and I were holding her off, you..."

Before he could finish speaking, I put my index finger to his lips.

"I understand, I will come to save you."

After saying that, I ignored the astonished look on Sheng's face and ran towards the outer perimeter without looking back.

He called my name quietly from behind, but I didn't respond. He couldn't shout my name loudly because that would expose him, and I would be exposed along with him.

I know what he's trying to say, which is why I don't want to listen. That's not the outcome I want, nor is it the outcome I expect.

What I want is for all three of us to survive, and it is imperative for all three of us to survive.

Therefore, I will not listen to those kinds of words.

When they had run about halfway through the outer construction debris, Sheng rushed out, which was a little earlier than planned. But this was not Sheng's fault, since Hanamichi had already knocked Ling to the ground again, looking like he was about to cut off Ling's limbs.

The sight of Sheng roaring and charging forward with a ferocious expression, brandishing his spiked club, startled Hua Gonglian. She focused most of her attention on Sheng, and as a result, the knife she was about to use to sever Ling's arm went astray.

By the time Karen Hanamiya came to her senses, Isamu, wielding a spiked club, was already in front of her. Isamu then raised the club high and brought it down on her, and Karen Hanamiya instinctively raised her sword to block.

Boom!

The spiked club struck the back of the katana with a loud thud, and Hanamiya Karen was also knocked back two or three steps by the powerful blow.

Seeing this, I felt a little relieved, and then continued running towards the pile of building materials.

During this time, I kept thinking about one question: should I shoot Lily in the back and kill her directly, or should I kidnap Lily first and threaten Hanamiya Karen?

In that case, Karen Hanamiya and Lily will likely escape, and tonight's vote will likely result in Lily being kicked out of the safe house, while Karen Hanamiya will be killed directly by the killing vote.

As I was thinking about these things, I arrived at the building materials, about twenty meters ahead. Lily looked around warily, as if she was looking for someone.

That's true. After all, the three of us are practically inseparable. If Sheng can rush out to help Ling, then why can't I?

From an outsider's perspective, what am I, the last member of the trio, most likely to do at this moment?

Of course, they will launch a sneak attack.

Do you think I'd just stand by and cheer them on if I didn't launch a sneak attack?

So, Lily must have thought of this before she became wary of her surroundings, but why was she still standing in such an open space?

Didn't she consider the possibility of a sniper? Or... was she unaware that the airdrop crates contained firearms?

Yes, she probably didn't know there were guns in the airdrop crate, otherwise she wouldn't be standing in such an open space, but in an inconspicuous corner.

She believed that as the attacker, she did not have a firearm, but was like them, only equipped with melee weapons.

Even though I know this, I can't go out yet because I'm not absolutely certain that I can shoot Lily or kidnap her.

She continued to look around warily, and might turn to look at me at any moment. I had to wait for an opportunity, a chance for Lily to look away from me.

However, she didn't expect this opportunity to come so soon. She stopped looking around and stared blankly ahead.

good chance!

With that thought in mind, I dashed toward Lily at my fastest speed.

However, as I looked up while charging forward with my head down, I saw a figure flying backward toward me.

Thump...

Caught off guard, I was hit by that figure and flew backward with her.

Shaking my head, which was still a little dazed from the impact, I looked at the person who had sent me flying. And that person was none other than Hanamiya Karen.

Although I didn't understand what was going on, I instinctively raised my submachine gun and aimed it at Hanamiya Karen, however...

Clang!

The katana's slashing speed was very fast; it cut my submachine gun in two before I even pulled the trigger.

He pulled the trigger of the submachine gun, but all he heard was a 'click-click' sound.

Ah...this...

I thought Hanamiya Karen would continue her pursuit, but to my surprise, she suddenly collapsed to the ground and vomited blood. Then she started coughing, supporting herself on the ground.

After glancing at Ling Hesheng, who was still stunned after the combined attack, and then at Lily, who was equally dumbfounded, I calmly analyzed the situation, pondered for a moment, and finally came to a conclusion.

Hua Gong was pitiful; he was knocked away by Ling and Sheng, and even vomited blood from their beatings.

Good heavens, this is too surreal! The pitiful Hanamichi, who was incredibly strong from the start and could easily defeat four adult men, was actually beaten by Ling and Sheng together, even to the point of vomiting blood. Is this reasonable?

Before I could think any further, Sheng was faster than anyone else in recovering his senses and rushed straight towards Lily. Hanamiya Karen also got up from the ground, picked up the katana from the ground, and rushed towards Lily at top speed.

Clang!

The sound of metal clashing rang out again. This time, Ling was sent flying by a horizontal slash from Hanamichi Karen. After rolling several times on the ground, it finally stopped at Ling's feet.

Fortunately, Sheng was not seriously injured.

And what about Hanamichi Karen? Hanamichi Karen vomited another mouthful of blood, the amount of bleeding was quite frightening.

She swayed unsteadily for a moment, then finally managed to steady herself by using her katana for support.

Lily, who was standing behind Hanamiya Karen, opened her mouth, then her expression twisted as she roared at Hanamiya Karen.

"Useless trash! Can't even handle two high schoolers!"

"I'm sorry, Miss Lily, my old injuries from the previous battle have flared up again, and..."

As she spoke, Hua Gong Ke Lian looked at Ling He Sheng.

"They...are quite capable."

The wound Hanamichi Karen was referring to must be in her abdomen, since the holes and bloodstains on her clothes indicate that she must have suffered a severe penetrating wound there.

Who on earth could have injured Hua Gong Ke Lian to this extent? But whoever it is, let's thank them first, because it was that person who seriously injured Hua Gong Ke Lian, which gave Ling Hesheng and the others the opportunity to defeat her.

Hanamichi's pitiful gaze swept over the three of us, finally settling on me.

Me? Why are you looking at me? Are you going to attack me?

"Miss Lily, I'm sorry, we have to change our plans."

As she spoke, Hanamiya Karen quickly sheathed her katana at her waist, then turned around and suddenly scooped Lily up in her arms in a perfect princess carry.

And then... and then this guy suddenly ran off into the distance. Ling Hesheng wanted to chase after him, but he stopped after only a few steps.

Because Hua Gong Ke's escape speed was far beyond Ling Hesheng's reach, even if the two of them used all their strength, it would be very difficult for them to catch up with Hua Gong Ke.

Watching Hua Gongqin's pitiful figure gradually disappear into the distance, the three of us were all somewhat bewildered for a moment.

Honestly, I might very well update again today. After so many days, it seems I can finally give you an update.
