Chapter 66 You're not human, you're a demon!
He really hadn't expected the arrest to turn out like this.
Even more unexpected was that this guy was actually such a capable fighter.
It seemed like a long time, but taking down Xiao Zhang and the officer at the nurse's station had actually happened in an instant.
If he hadn't come down himself, even with a few more officers, they wouldn't have been able to catch the man without opening fire.
The onlookers around them were truly fearless.
If this were abroad, everyone would have fled long ago, but here in the country, no one really left.
This was also why Xiao Zhang didn't dare to shoot even when he had the chance; he was afraid of accidental injuries.
"Fuck!"
Seeing Chen Mo come down from the elevator and block his path, Pei Zhipeng let out a roar.
He clenched his fists and charged toward Chen Mo.
He could now test exactly how powerful Krav Maga was.
Raising his foot, Chen Mo sent a groin kick flying toward him.
Pei Zhipeng was startled by the move and immediately used his free hand to protect his crotch.
This won't do, Chen Mo thought to himself.
Following up immediately, a punch landed squarely on the man's eye.
—Thud.
The man fell flat on his back and lost consciousness.
This scene happened in a flash, ending before the people present could even react.
A few moments later, cheers erupted from the crowd of onlookers in the distance.
Some shouted "awesome," while others clapped vigorously.
No one expected that such a capable criminal would be instantly knocked out by the policeman who suddenly appeared.
This allowed their racing hearts to settle down instantly.
"Brother Mo, you..."
Xiao Zhang clutched his stomach and scrambled up from the ground, his mouth twitching as he looked at the unconscious Pei Zhipeng.
Then he looked back at Chen Mo.
With a look of incomprehension, he wondered how he never knew Brother Mo was so skilled in close-quarters combat!
He had never heard of it before.
Not just him, the other officers on the scene were also stunned by this sight.
Especially the officer who had taken five punches from Pei Zhipeng.
He was a military veteran; he had just performed two sets of Military Boxing and taken five hits. Luckily, it wasn't a knife, or he'd be in the emergency room by now.
Correspondingly, he was even more aware of how formidable Pei Zhipeng was.
Therefore, he found it unbelievable that Brother Mo had knocked the opponent down in an instant.
"Wake him up immediately!"
...
Twenty minutes later.
The group arrived in front of an abandoned factory building.
According to Pei Zhipeng's confession, he had discovered this place while passing by.
There was no one around, so he chose this location.
Without hesitation, Chen Mo immediately pushed open the main door and walked inside.
As soon as he entered, a wave of warm air brushed over him.
In his line of sight were three large pots set atop temporary stoves built from bricks, with firewood inside burning fiercely, making a crackling sound.
The sight made everyone's hearts tremble.
Were they still too late?
"Save them!"
Chen Mo's shout snapped everyone back to their senses.
He stepped forward and lifted a pot lid.
A blast of white steam rushed upward instantly, forcing him to take two steps back.
Once the white mist dissipated, the image inside the pot made his scalp tingle!
The water in the pot had long been boiling under the intense heat of the firewood.
And lying inside was a person!
All the hair was gone, and the skin tissue had softened as if it would slide right off the bone with a gentle poke; the face no longer looked human!
The person had been boiled cooked!
He wasn't given much time to react.
"Ah!"
Xiao Zhang's exclamation rang out from beside him.
He hurried over.
Looking at the scene inside the pot, his temples throbbed.
Just like the first pot, a person lay inside, but the difference was that wild fruits were floating on top. Although the person had been boiled beyond recognition...
One could guess the person in the pot was Xiao Yuqing.
At that moment, the third large pot was also opened.
"Fuck!"
"They're all dead!"
When Xiao Zhang saw the third pot filled with raw pickling spices and dismembered human tissue, he roared at Pei Zhipeng!
He rushed up and threw a heavy punch.
"Why! Why!"
"You demon!"
After the punch, he turned his head and began to retch.
Not just him, the other officers were also experiencing physical discomfort.
Their DNA was rejecting these smells!
Although Chen Mo didn't vomit, his face looked no better.
He quickly used water to douse the fire below.
Then, his gaze turned coldly toward Pei Zhipeng.
Noticing Chen Mo's eyes, Pei Zhipeng knew he was the one in charge here. He immediately showed a pleading expression, the composure he had at the hospital long gone.
"Officer, don't death row inmates get a final meal before they go?"
He looked toward the three large pots with greed.
"How about this serves as my final meal?"
"I beg you, let me have a bite, just one bite!"
As he spoke, he fell to his knees with a thud and began kowtowing frantically to Chen Mo.
He prayed that Chen Mo would give him a chance to fulfill his dream!
Silence!
The factory was terrifyingly silent.
Everyone watched Pei Zhipeng pleading like an addict in withdrawal, and they all fell silent.
It was hard to imagine how a person could be so heinous to this degree!
Even now, he actually had the gall to beg the police for a bite.
Disgusting!
Chen Mo furrowed his brows, deeply feeling the sensation of being revolted by another human being.
How could someone be this disgusting?
"I'll beat you to death, you animal!"
Xiao Zhang rushed up and began kicking and punching him.
—Phew.
Chen Mo let out a heavy breath.
He turned around to look at the three large pots.
At this moment, he only felt a sense of sorrow; three perfectly fine people had lost their lives just because they encountered Pei Zhipeng.
What made him feel even more suffocated was that his Autopsy ability told him the three women had been boiled to death while conscious.
Because there were various degrees of scratch marks on all three of them, likely left behind during their painful struggle.
"Speak! Why did you do this!"
Xiao Zhang panted heavily, beginning an on-site interrogation.
It wouldn't be so easy to hit this guy once they reached the interrogation room.
Pei Zhipeng, lying on the ground, spat out a mouthful of blood and teeth.
He looked at all the police officers present with eyes full of resentment.
If it weren't for them, his dream would have been completed.
Now, they wouldn't even give him a chance to have a single bite.
"Because I wanted to taste human flesh!" He had a sinister expression, his mouth curling into a grin that, combined with the blood in his mouth, was exceptionally terrifying!
"Animal! Animal!"
Xiao Zhang cursed and started hitting him again.
Chen Mo watched from behind, looking at the first pot; it now seemed the person inside was indeed Li Yao.
Analyzing it carefully, Li Yao did indeed fit Pei Zhipeng's target profile.
Although she lived with her mother, the mother was seriously ill and bedridden, which fit the criteria for living alone.
And Li Yao also fit the description of having no friends around her.
Not to mention she was young and beautiful.
The saying that misfortune picks on the miserable was demonstrated vividly at this moment.
—Screech.
The sound of sudden braking suddenly rang out outside the factory.
Long Hao walked in quickly.
When he saw clearly what was inside the pots...
His stomach churned.
A boundless rage surged in his heart.
"Everyone, don't just stand there! Cordon off the scene immediately! Make absolutely sure no one takes any photos!"
The officers took their orders and left.
"Hello, Instructor!"
Chen Mo saw the Instructor who followed closely behind and quickly gave a salute.
