Chapter 145 – Doing Good Deeds Will Send You To Jail
After opening the door, the habitually silent big senior apprentice brother suddenly pulled Wei Xiao Bei into his room.
He turned on his computer. It seemed that his big senior apprentice brother also used a computer, but all his searches were Guo Shu forums, Bajiquan forums and other martial art forums.
After opening the web page, his big senior apprentice brother opened the Cui Hu City forum and opened the top post.
Wei Xiao Bei looked at the title, “Zombies appeared in the suburbs! Chivalrous heros uphod justice!”
Upon opening, there were a few fuzzy pictures inside. In the picture, there was someone using a wooden stool attacking the Zombies. The images should have been taken with a low pixel phone, but people who were familiar with him would know that the person in the picture was Wei Xiao Bei.
“Is this you?”
Although his big senior apprentice brother doubtfully asked, his face did not have any doubts. It was clear that he had already recognized Wei Xiao Bei.
“Ah. That is me. I could not hold back anymore when I saw those Zombies kill people.”
Wei Xiao Bei did not hide anything. After all, with his big senior apprentice brother’s personality, he knew that he would not sell him out.
“Why didn’t you tell me when you returned?”
His big senior apprentice brother did not plan to let Wei Xiao Bei answer at all and continued, “The problems now are much more troublesome.”
Troublesome?
Wei Xiao Bei felt that his mind had not caught up.
No matter what was said, he was just bravely standing up for the truth. Although he did not leave his name behind, the enemy in front of him was a group Zombies, how could he just look away from them and let them kill people.
Am I in trouble?
“How do I say this. My friend is a forensics investigator. He just happened to join the Zombie dissection and testing. There was no Zombie virus found in the Zombie corpses!”
These words made Wei Xiao Bei slightly faint.
The Zombies did not have a Zombie virus?
The problem seems to have escalated?
If that was the case, how did the Zombies spread the virus and increase the size of their group?
Wei Xiao Bei stared at his big senior apprentice brother as if he wanted to see if he was joking with him.
Wei Xiao Bei understood the problem here. If the Zombies were not identified as Zombies, then it would really be very troublesome.
Although the Zombies themselves could not just identify themselves, and perhaps their real identities would never be confirmed, they could still move. According to the law, these Zombies were at most mental disorder patients!
He himself, had killed more than ten Zombies. In the eyes of the police that failed to understand anything, he might become a suspect for mass murder.
What kind of response would the police give if they found out a Guo Shu expert had killed people?
The first thing they would do was capture him, lock him behind bars, and carefully investigate!
If a plane was to deviate from its flight path and about to hit some capital city, than a warning was useless. Whether it was a hijacking, the pilot’s brain spasming, or even an apparatus error, they would be met with a cruise missile and be blown up into beautiful fireworks!
No one could bear having their capital become a tragic state.
Moreover, Wei Xiao Bei’s situation was like that. If the police wanted to be at ease, then he must obediently go have a cup of tea with them and wait for the results that might or might not come out.
Fuck!
Wei Xiao Bei almost jumped up, “Big senior apprentice brother, those Zombies bit people to death. There should be remains of the virus on the corpses. Moreover, the Zombies are also considered murderers.”
His big senior apprentice brother heavily shook his head, “There was not virus found on the body of the corpses. Moreover, even if they killed people, you killed more in a single span of time. Who would be relieved to see you walk around freely?”
Fuck!
Wei Xiao Bei cursed. Right now, Wei Xiao Bei felt like he was a framed youth who tried to help an old woman.
There was simply no one that could be found as a suspect. If they truly wanted a criminal ring leader, then they could only point to Wei Xiao Bei.
If he did not go up and help people, then how could this all happen.
After only half a day, he had suddenly become a murder suspect.
“Junior apprentice brother, I have already called master. He will try to rush back through the night. If there are any problems, master will personally step forward.”
His big senior apprentice brother tried to think of a way to ease his heart.
Wei Xiao Bei thought for a bit. Since things were already like this, if he were to go and say his side of the story, no one would probably believe him.
If he truly went to the police, then he would probably be unable to leave for a shot period of time.
Luckily, it was only his back that was photographed and there were no surveillance cameras that were recording. The difficulty of finding him with just the fuzzy image would be hard.
Thinking about this, Wei Xiao Bei was slightly relieved. If it were not out of necessity, he would also not be willing to become a murder suspect.
Moreover, he did not want this matter to be sent back to his old home. He was afraid of shaming his own family after the countryside people would eventually hear various rumors about him.
In China, reputation was very important.
If a person’s reputation became bad, others would not be able to actually harm you, but they would point their fingers at you until they suffocate you to death.
“Look, the murderer of the Wei Family has returned.”
Thinking about this kind of rumors, Wei Xiao Bei’s back shivered. He felt even more unwell than when he encountered the Citizen of Long Bo.
Luckily, Wei Xiao Bei’s willpower was steady. Even if something like this happened, he was able to calm down after training his Qi.
At two in the morning, his master and his third senior apprentice brother rushed home.
After understanding the details of the situation, Cheng Bi Wu waved his hand and smiled, “It’s alright. No matter what was said, Xiao Bei could be seen as standing up for the truth. Even if it was excessive self-defense, no one has come to find him yet right?”
Wei Xiao Bei’s face turned into 囧.
Must I wait for someone to find me before it becomes a problem?
Seeing Wei Xiao Bei’s face, Cheng Bi Wu laughed out loud, “However, in this period of time, you must go out less. The best thing would be to find a place to stay low. Remember, if anyone finds you, do not admit anything.”
After Cheng Bi Wu finished, he stared at his two disciples.
Seeing the master’s gaze, Liu Jiang Cheng and Yao Wu immediately understood and patted their junior’s chest while saying that they wouldn’t sell him out.
After, Cheng Bi Wu talked to Wei Xiao Bei again, stressing for him to not go make any information public, even if it was with his second senior apprentice brother. He should also temporarily keep it a secret from Cheng Si Si.
Hearing his master’s warning, Wei Xiao Bei felt slightly moved.
In the current society that had been hit by the tides of economy, finding a master that properly took care of their disciples was hard to find.
Watching the news a few days ago, there was some master that had even killed their disciple due to monetary benefits.
Wei Xiao Bei returned to his room and pondered for a bit. He could not go back to the apartment building.
The police might be looking for him, so going there would just be delivering the goods to their front door.
Moreover, at his new place, even the thought of the strange footspers was still making Wei Xiao Bei tremble.
It was not that his willpower was weak, but rather, this was just the nature of a human who was helpless in their situation. Humans would all have an innate fear against something that they could not understand
Especially when Wei Xiao Bei’s power was currently not invincible. Although, he knew that he had already exceeded the limit of most people, he could still not find the origins of the footsteps, giving him a headache.
After sleeping, Wei Xiao Bei decided to return back to his new home after giving his regards to his master.
When he arrived, the two women hadn’t yet woken up since it was a Sunday. For a white collar worker, today was their hard earned day of rest.
Wei Xiao Bei immediately called Huang Kun. He originally planned to call Huang Kun over and tell him to bring over a notebook with him to help him understand the details of The Dust World. However, what he never expected was that Huang Kun was suddenly brought to join a cram school by his mother.
Although he had entered The Dust World once and had an increase in strength and agility, he was still not at the level of his mother.
Without any choice, Wei Xiao Bei could only lock the door and drink the liquor in his room. Then he fell asleep.
……
“Murderer! Murderer!”
“Fuck! Where did this lunatic come from!”
“I can’t live anymore, you need to compensate me!”
“Right, pay up! If you don’t pay, we will never let you go!”
……
Chaotic noise sounded waking Wei Xiao Bei up from his sleep.
????
What’s happening?
Wei Xiao Bei got up from the bed and wore his backpack. He grabbed the machete and moved in front of window.
As his gaze scanned past the fountain, Wei Xiao Bei’s sight became dull. In the downtown square, a group of people had formed two circles, surrounding a Zombie.
Naturally, this was not too serious of a situation. After all, there was only one Zombie and there were many people.
The problem was the 3 women and five men in the inner circle. There was a woman lying on the ground. Two women had grabbed the Zombie on the hair and on the head. The five men were surrounding the Zombie and shouting.
The outer circle was made up of more than 20 people. There were more men than women, forming a loose circle. Seeing the liveliness, there were many spectators looking at the scene excitedly. Some had even brought out their phones and took pictures, preparing to send them out through their WeChat.
What is actually happening here?
Wei Xiao Bei jumped out the window and strode forward. When he was charging ahead, he sized up the people in front of him a few times, and saw that these people were not monsters from The Dust World.
From their clothes, it appeared that they were people who had accidentally stumbled into The Dust World.
The only thing was that he did not know where they came from. Was it Cui Hu City, or another city?
“Where did you people come from?”
Wei Xiao Bei raised his machete as he walked forward. When the people in the outer circle saw him, they quickly opened a path and looked at Wei Xiao Bei in fright.
Wei Xiao Bei was a bit suspicious, but he immediately understood that this was caused by his special skill elementary intimidation.
Following Wei Xiao Bei’s shout, everyone looked at Wei Xiao Bei with the same fearful expression.
