119: Chapter 119 Ma Chao publicly exposes himself; the Great Demon King stops pretending.

At the same time, Fang Xiaoxiao's team returned to Jiang University.

The fatty carried a shield, its surface covered in black blood.

The skinny monkey carried a short spear and two tattered backpacks.

Lin Yuan followed at the end, his clothes stained with dust, still looking like a newcomer.

Fang Xiaoxiao handed the crystal core to the registration desk.

"We found the missing team's equipment at Building One on the south side."

"Broken spears, backpacks, and drag marks from blood."

"The people are basically gone."

The student at the registration desk lowered their head to record it.

Fang Xiaoxiao gripped the registration book tightly, then released it.

In the end, she swallowed the words "Ma Chao poisoned them."

She planned to wait for Chu Feng to return and speak to him privately.

She wanted to keep the public opinion on this matter within a certain range as much as possible.

After all, no matter what a jerk Ma Chao was, he was still Fang Xiaoxiao's childhood friend, and she still wanted to give him a chance to turn over a new leaf.

But Ma Chao didn't give her that chance.

He arrived with a group of people from the direction of the Library.

Xu Qiangwei and Bai Jingchen were also behind them.

As soon as Ma Chao saw Lin Yuan, he shouted directly.

"It's him!"

"Boss Lin is suspicious!"

The surrounding students stopped in their tracks.

Ma Chao raised his voice.

"I saw with my own eyes that he drank zombie poison and was fine!"

"A normal person would convulse if they even touched a little bit of zombie poison, but he drank half a bottle and was completely fine!"

The crowd scattered instantly.

Some people backed away.

Some raised their crossbows.

A parent held their child and hid behind the canteen.

"He drank zombie poison and didn't die?"

"Is he even human?"

"Quarantine! Quarantine him first!"

"Send him to the basement for interrogation!"

Seeing others joining in the shouting, Ma Chao felt even more confident.

He pointed at Lin Yuan.

"He is definitely not an ordinary survivor!"

"Maybe he's an experimental subject sent by the authorities!"

"He might even be carrying a virus!"

Lin Yuan lowered his head and said nothing.

Fang Xiaoxiao drew her blade and blocked in front of him.

The blade pointed at Ma Chao.

"Where did you get the zombie poison?"

Ma Chao choked.

Fang Xiaoxiao took a step forward.

"Who handed it to him?"

"How did you know it was zombie poison?"

Ma Chao's expression changed.

"I... I just know!"

"I awakened!"

"I can feel that there's something wrong with him!"

The fatty walked up carrying his shield.

"Did you awaken a dog's nose?"

The skinny monkey added.

"Besides, the point isn't whether he drank it or not."

"The point is that you handed zombie poison to a teammate."

Some people's gazes toward Ma Chao changed.

But others gripped their crossbows and stared at Lin Yuan.

Ma Chao roared immediately.

"Don't let him lead you astray!"

"I admit I tested him!"

"But the facts prove I was right! He is problematic!"

In the apocalypse, betraying a teammate is despicable.

But if that teammate might be carrying a virus, the fear of a thousand people would outweigh the disgust for a betrayer.

Xu Qiangwei walked up to Fang Xiaoxiao at this moment.

Her voice wasn't loud, but it was audible to those around them.

"Xiaoxiao, don't be anxious."

"Now is not the time to talk about feelings."

"A newcomer who drinks zombie poison and is fine really needs to be investigated."

As she spoke, her gaze swept over the thin vine at Ma Chao's cuff.

Fang Xiaoxiao looked at her.

"Sister Qiangwei, Ma Chao poisoned a teammate."

Xu Qiangwei nodded.

"That matter also needs to be investigated."

"But Boss Lin if he is really not normal, it involves the lives of over a thousand people at Jiang University."

She looked at Lin Yuan.

"Quarantine him first, draw blood, and search him."

"If there are no issues, we will apologize."

The words sounded nice.

But the knife was placed in the most lethal position.

Lin Yuan lifted his eyes and looked at her.

She had enough brains.

She knew how to use men.

She knew how to pick rules that were advantageous to her.

Useful.

But she needed to be taught a lesson.

[Ding! Target Xu Qiangwei (Appearance 90), Favorability -1%, Current Favorability -1%.]

Seeing Xu Qiangwei backing him up, Ma Chao stepped forward directly.

"Did you hear that?"

"Tie him up!"

Two students from the enforcement team looked at each other and walked up with nylon zip ties.

One reached out to grab Lin Yuan's shoulder.

Fang Xiaoxiao held her blade horizontally, blocking that hand.

"I said it before, you can't touch him without evidence."

Ma Chao sneered: "Blocking the enforcement team? Fang Xiaoxiao, do you want to be locked up together with him?"

Lin Yuan finally spoke.

"Where is Chu Feng?"

Ma Chao sneered.

"Senior Chu Feng went to the East Gate to clear out a zombie horde."

"Here, Brother Bai is in charge!"

Everyone looked at Bai Jingchen.

Bai Jingchen was silent for a moment, then walked up to Lin Yuan.

"Boss Lin."

"Who exactly are you?"

His little finger twitched.

Just like last time.

His palm was empty.

The note was ineffective against Lin Yuan.

This was no ordinary survivor.

Ma Chao, however, thought Bai Jingchen was on his side and smiled.

"Brother Bai sees it too, right?"

"He definitely has a problem!"

"If we don't interrogate someone like this, are we waiting for him to sell out Jiang University?"

Fang Xiaoxiao gripped her short blade tightly.

"Brother Bai, without evidence, you cannot use lynching."

"You promised me last time!"

Xu Qiangwei looked at Bai Jingchen.

"Rules are for our own people."

"Whether he is one of our own hasn't been determined yet."

The crowd became rowdy again.

"There's nothing wrong with locking him up first."

"Let's test him."

"What if he really is infected?"

Lin Yuan patted the dust off his clothes.

His back slowly straightened.

The cowardice on his face disappeared.

The fatty was closest to him and sensed something wrong immediately.

He subconsciously moved his shield half an inch to the side.

The skinny monkey also shut his mouth.

Fang Xiaoxiao turned back to look at Lin Yuan.

This newcomer suddenly didn't look like a newcomer anymore.

Lin Yuan looked at Bai Jingchen.

His tone was very flat.

"Bai Jingchen."

"Come here."

"Let me have a word with you."

The whole scene went silent.

Some people didn't react in time.

Some thought they had misheard.

What did he call Brother Bai?

Bai Jingchen?

And he told him to come over?

Bai Jingchen stood where he was, his fingers frozen.

He looked at Lin Yuan.

In that instant, he remembered the firelight from the drone exploding last night.

He remembered the note with [Lin Yuan] written on it.

He also remembered bowing to the crowd.

Ma Chao didn't understand.

He only thought Boss Lin was crazy.

"Who do you think you are?"

"How dare you order Brother Bai around?"

The next second.

Lin Yuan had already walked up to him.

Ma Chao didn't even see how he got there.

He only heard a 'slap'.

His face was pressed into the muddy water on the ground.

Lin Yuan stepped on the back of his neck.

His voice was still very flat.

"Who gave you the authority?"

"To bark in front of me?"
