Chapter 377 Kill Me 2.0

Chen Yu's pace quickened.

The crowds in the Trading Zone... once the best cover, now became the greatest obstacle.

Lin Yuan's figure flickered between the stalls and the flow of people.

"Move."

Chen Yu lowered his voice and turned sideways to squeeze past a large man carrying a sack, knocking him over a meter away.

The large man turned back, cursing, "Damn it! You in a rush to reincarnate?!"

Thirty meters away, Lin Yuan glanced back. Through the jostling heads, his gaze met Chen Yu's.

In an instant, his face went deathly pale, and he turned back to run.

Chen Yu didn't stop, rounding the first corner.

An old woman suddenly walked out from behind, carrying a basket of bottles and jars, colliding squarely with Chen Yu.

"Crash..." The bottles and jars shattered all over the floor, and sticky liquid splashed onto Chen Yu's boots.

"Ouch! How do you walk, you person! This was high-quality..."

Chen Yu had already bypassed her.

Lin Yuan's luck Talent was too bizarre.

Loose gravel appearing on the ground, signs falling from overhead, carts inexplicably blocking the middle of the road... Every obstacle you could think of, and some you couldn't, would appear at the most critical moment.

Rounding the second corner.

A child squatting by the roadside suddenly stood up, bumping squarely into Chen Yu's leg.

"Waa..." The child started crying, and the mother rushed over in a panic to grab the child.

A corner of the sunshade overhead suddenly collapsed, and the iron frame, along with the canvas, came crashing down with a clatter. Chen Yu dodged to the side, but his shoulder was still grazed.

"Damn!" Someone exclaimed, "How did that shed collapse?!"

Chen Yu continued the chase. Twenty meters. Fifteen meters. Ten meters.

Lin Yuan didn't stop, blindly diving into a deeper alley.

Chen Yu reached out to grab him.

His fingertips were less than half an inch from Lin Yuan's hood... A sharp cry suddenly came from above.

A pigeon, who knew where it flew from, slammed fiercely into Chen Yu's face.

"?!" Chen Yu instinctively tilted his head to the side.

The pigeon grazed past his ear.

Just that one moment. Lin Yuan ran another three or four meters away.

Chen Yu cursed under his breath. "Again?"

"Bang!!!" He exploded to his maximum speed, cracking the stone slabs under his feet, closing the dozen-meter distance in the blink of an eye.

Lin Yuan turned his head back, his mouth agape.

"Bang!!!" Chen Yu kicked Lin Yuan in the back.

Of course, not with full force. If it were full force, Lin Yuan would already be a dead man.

But it was enough to send him flying four or five meters, rolling several times on the ground, finally stopping only after crashing into a trash can.

"Cough, cough, cough..." Lin Yuan lay in the pile of trash, his face covered in dust and dirt.

He wanted to crawl. Supporting himself with his knees, he inched forward.

But the sound of footsteps in front... One step. Two steps. Three steps. The sound stopped in front of him.

Lin Yuan looked up.

Chen Yu was looking down at him from above, holding the ghost head blade in his right hand, purple light flowing along the blade.

Chen Yu's voice was calm: "Didn't you say you were in New Capital City No. 3?"

Lin Yuan's lips trembled: "I... I..."

He stammered for a long time, unable to say anything.

"Thump!" Lin Yuan suddenly knelt on the ground: "Brother Chen Yu! I'm sorry!"

His voice was shaking, his forehead pressed against the stone slab, "I'm sorry, Brother Chen Yu, I'm sorry..."

"I didn't mean to lie to you." "I really didn't mean to lie to you." "Just give me a little more time, just a little more time is enough."

Chen Yu didn't speak, letting Lin Yuan kowtow on the ground.

Three seconds later, Chen Yu's ghost head blade traced a cold line, the tip stopping in front of Lin Yuan's neck.

Lin Yuan froze, his breathing stopped.

His eyes stared at the blade, the purple light reflecting in his pupils.

Then, tears streamed down Lin Yuan's face, "You... just kill me."

His voice stopped shaking, revealing even more despair.

Lin Yuan knelt on the ground, looking up, his face covered in tears.

"Brother Chen Yu, I beg you, just kill me." "If I'm dead, I won't have to be afraid of her anymore." "If I'm dead, there won't be any more attachments." "If I'm dead, I can rest."

He closed his eyes and pushed his neck forward, his Adam's apple about to touch the blade: "Please."

Chen Yu was silent for a few seconds.

"What exactly is going on?"

Lin Yuan's lips trembled, tears flowing down his cheeks.

"I..."

"If you don't speak, you really won't have a chance."

Chen Yu interrupted him, reached his left hand into his trench coat's inner pocket, and pulled out a card with his fingertips.

It was a tracking card.

The card emitted a faint silver glow in the dim alley.

"This is called a tracking card. Even without you, I can still find Lin Yue. Did you think that by lying to me, I wouldn't be able to do anything about her?"

When Lin Yuan saw the tracking card, his face went completely pale.

"No..."

He stumbled forward violently, grabbing Chen Yu's thigh, his whole body almost prone on the ground: "I beg you, don't catch her yet!"

"I beg you, Brother Chen Yu, I beg you..."

Lin Yuan's voice was hoarse: "I did lie to you, I lied. I shouldn't have said I was in New Capital City No. 3, but it's not that I didn't want to help you, I really... I really couldn't help it!"

He stammered, incoherent.

"Get to the point."

Chen Yu raised the ghost head blade half an inch.

At this moment, rapid footsteps came from the entrance of the alley.

Mira's figure appeared at the alley entrance. She leaned against the wall to catch her breath, her gaze sweeping over the kneeling Lin Yuan.

"Huu..." "It's good that you're alright."

She saw Chen Yu's overwhelming dominance and finally felt relieved. After all, only Chen Yu could save Brother Jiang now.

Lin Yuan was still holding onto Chen Yu's leg, "It's Xiao Li..."

He finally spoke the name: "Xiao Li got on the train."

Chen Yu frowned: "Who is Xiao Li?"

"My girlfriend."

"We've been together since high school. She sat in the row behind me. She had good grades, and my grades were terrible, so she would poke my back with her pen to make me listen in class."

He paused, as if remembering something, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"At every station after the apocalypse, I've been looking for her."

"I searched everywhere I could search, asked everyone I could ask."

"I dream about her every night. I dream of her being chased by monsters, dream of her calling my name, dream of her standing in front of me covered in blood, asking me why I didn't come to find her?"

"I've been thinking of her every moment. I wanted to use my luck to see her."

"I've fantasized that if she really appeared before my eyes, I would definitely protect her, just like before, and tell her that I would never let her leave me again in this lifetime."

Lin Yuan sniffled, "But... later, Lin Yue got on the train, and I didn't want to see her at all... but she came anyway... Xiao Li held Lin Yue's hand, saying that finally there was a girl she could talk to, saying that from now on they could sleep in the back row together."

"She has no idea that Lin Yue is a lunatic. To find you, she... she can sacrifice everything."
