Boss's Death Guide Chapter 65

Chapter 65

In Nie Yie’s initial plans, he had wanted to kill Su Haisheng secretly, then eliminate those by his side . At that time, he had thought over simply destroying this base once more .

But when he voiced his opinion, Qi Jingchen stopped him .

Qi Jingchen hoped that more people could survive, and he didn’t want to implicate innocents, so he didn’t want to destroy the base . As for targeting Su Haisheng alone…

If nothing else, Su Haisheng was undoubtedly terrified of death . All year round, there were several high level ability users by his side . At the same time, his treatment towards those ability users was very good, so those people were faithful to him .

It was very easy for Nie Yi to kill a regular person like Guan Jiayu, but to kill off someone like Su Haisheng… How could it go unnoticed?

They had come from B City secure base, and the lives of the ma.s.ses in W County secure base were awful compared to theirs . They had even less camaraderie towards B City secure base, so if someone from B City secure base came and killed their chief, what would they think?

If Nie Yi acted so wantonly, there were only disadvantages for him .

As for having Qi An make a move… Perhaps Qi An might be able to catch them off guard and kill one of them, but after that, he would probably be captured .

For those reasons, Qi Jingchen didn’t approve of murdering Su Haisheng directly . Instead, they’d use another method .

It wasn’t right for them to directly murder Su Haisheng, but what if Su Haisheng wanted to kill them? After Su Haisheng ambushed them, killing him in self-defense was simply a matter of course!

They had already earned W County secure base populace’s love by clearing out the zombies outside . Now, even if Su Haisheng had opposed them in the open, the ma.s.ses might not stand by Su Haisheng’s side . If Su Haisheng wanted to murder them and they killed him in self-defense, the ma.s.ses would not find anything odd .

As long as the civilians lived their lives well, who would be concerned about losing a secure base chief like Su Haisheng? Maybe they might even be grateful for taking out the secure base’s vermin .

Furthermore, they could also justify themselves to B City secure base . If they had killed Su Haisheng for no reason, maybe Yu Shuo would do something and they would gain infamy . But now that they had a reason, Yu Shuo had no way to convict Nie Yi .

However, a large secure base like B City secure base would only pay attention to the nearby small bases because it was still the beginning stage of the apocalypse . After some more time pa.s.sed, they would be occupied with their own affairs and everything would become a mess . Of course, by the last stage of the apocalypse, humanity would be united once more .

Nie Yi hated Su Haisheng deeply, and was itching to slice and dice this person . But in front of his own men, he wouldn’t do such a thing, and merely ordered someone to tie Su Haisheng up .

Su Haisheng had taken along many ability users, but they were all held at gunpoint and surrounded by Nie Yi’s men, so they didn’t dare to take action… They had seen very clearly how Nie Yi’s men had ma.s.sacred the zombies . Nie Yi’s group was much stronger, so who would dare resist?

After Su Haisheng hired them, they only had to protect their boss and hadn’t killed zombies at all… In the end, only the few among them who had gone to B City secure base had any combat strength, and some even resisted . However, the moment they moved, Nie Yi sliced off their wrists with an ice blade .

After their hands were severed, they had no strength to resist anymore . They could only cover their injuries that were still spurting blood and stare at Nie Yi in shock . One of the water ability users was filled with absolute disbelief . “Ice… How could you use ice?”

When he was in B City secure base, he had heard that water ability users could use ice to attack people, but he couldn’t do it at all . Not even the strongest water ability user in B City secure base could .

Wasn’t Nie Yi just a hedonist? His water ability had even been awakened by his lover tormenting him, so how could he suddenly use an ice ability?

“Why wouldn’t I be able to use an ice ability?” Nie Yi returned the question .

“Tbe…” Ktf kjafg jylilas erfg’r ojmf kjr oliifv klat eckliilcucfrr . Ktf Xbvr regfis kfgf yflcu ecojlg, ulnlcu remt j ubbv uloa ab rbwfbcf ilxf Rlf Tl .

Those who had been to B City secure base didn’t expect this at all . When they arrived at the secure base, they were welcomed by the people from Nie Boyuan, that is, Yu Shuo . And from those people’s words, Nie Yi wasn’t a good person, and it was even said that Nie Yi was extremely useless…

But now… What part of Nie Yi was useless? If nothing else, his strength was incredibly powerful! They looked at Nie Yi once more, which was when they discovered that a sparkling, translucent ice blade was pressed between his fingertips as he looked at them with a curl of his lip .

They looked back at their wrists, their faces instantly changing .

At a time when fire ability users weren’t likely to throw a fireball accurately, Nie Yi could already turn water into ice, and accurately slice off their wrists . Someone like this, how could he be the hedonist Yu Shuo spoke of who merely relied on his father?

The reason why Su Haisheng had intentions against Nie Yi had a great deal to do with these people . Now, looking at their expressions, then thinking of their previous words, how could he not understand that the news they brought back from B City secure base was false?

“This team- it’s yours?” Su Haisheng suddenly asked .

“This is the team I personally trained,” Nie Yi said . Even though he wouldn’t take action aside from special situations now, he had always taken the lead back at the start, and he had taught most of these people their skills .

Su Haisheng’s complexion became uglier . If he had known that Nie Yi had trained this team, he definitely wouldn’t have thoughts about taking it… When he thought of this, Su Haisheng immediately hated Yu Shuo .

He was a smart person, and had heard his men speak of the relations.h.i.+p between Yu Shuo and Nie Yi . He now knew most of what Yu Shuo said about Nie Yi was just belittlement, but he had actually believed it .

Su Haisheng gritted his teeth and soon changed his demeanour, pleading to Nie Yi, “Nie shao, I apologise . I had only taken action against you due to someone else’s instigation . If you let me off, I’ll give you half the secure base’s supplies . ”

Su Haisheng recognised his situation very quickly and admitted defeat, but Nie Yi merely said, “You wanted to kill me . Do you think you’ll be rid of me just by casually offering supplies?”

Su Haisheng’s expression immediately became extremely ugly . If he were Nie Yi, he definitely wouldn’t let himself off . After all, once he died, wouldn’t all of W County secure base’s supplies become Nie Yi’s?

Fear appeared in Su Haisheng’s eyes, and he wanted to curse and let off some steam, yet he was afraid that doing so would lead to greater suffering before his death . In the end, he chose to keep his mouth shut .

Nie Yi didn’t kill him off in public, merely ordering people to tie up the ability users by Su Haisheng’s side, then bringing along Su Haisheng when he left with Qi Jingchen .

Qi Jingchen had always been sealed away back then, and wasn’t sure how many people knew of his existence . However, he knew that Su Haisheng was definitely the mastermind .

He honestly didn’t care about revenge or whatnot . After all, he had already killed those who had eaten his flesh once . In this life, it’s not like they had captured him .

But Nie Yi still cared greatly . Qi Jingchen looked at the fuming Nie Yi before him, and knew he had to let Nie Yi blow off some steam .

There were a few houses that once sold cold drinks and snacks in the amus.e.m.e.nt park, but the doors had long been knocked down, and the insides were incredibly filthy . It was surprisingly the gate outside the ticket office that was in working order, and the inside still had a vibe .

Nie Yi took Su Haisheng into the room, then directly tied Su Haisheng at the side and tore open his clothes .

“What do you want to do?” Su Haisheng stared at the sharp knife in Nie Yi’s hand, his voice trembling .

“I’m not doing much; just want to see what dying by a thousand cuts is like,” Nie Yi smiled as he spoke . He used his knife to cut off a piece, then applied his ice ability to temporarily staunch the bleeding .

Su Haisheng screamed, but just as he opened his mouth, it was stuffed up . In the end, he could only stare wide-eyed as Nie Yi moved the knife across his body, letting out frightened noises from his nose .

“Be careful . The place you’re cutting into has an artery, and it’s hard to stop the bleeding once it’s been nicked . ” While Nie Yi was moving, Qi Jingchen spoke up .

When Su Haisheng heard this sentence, he still had the presence of mind despite the pain to look at the youth he had thought was just a male pet . It was then that he discovered that this youth’s eyes had no warmth, and his body subconsciously turned cold .

Moreover, Nie Yi paring off flesh from his skin could be considered abnormal, but this youth was exceptionally calm, as if it wasn’t serious at all…

He had always thought he was very capable at discerning people, but he had erred! How could this be a male pet spoiled rotten? He’s just a demon!

Qi Jingchen had spoken subconsciously when he pointed out Nie Yi’s mistake, but Nie Yi abruptly stopped . “Jingchen, don’t look…”

The way Qi Jingchen had been treated back then, wouldn’t it have left some psychological shadows? Nie Yi felt some regret— He had actually cut off someone’s flesh in front of Qi Jingchen .

“It’s fine . ” Qi Jingchen smiled . “I think it’s rather interesting . Actually, you can even have him try the taste of his own flesh . ”

His appearance reflected in Su Haisheng’s eyes that year should be similar to Su Haisheng’s appearance before him right now, right?

Su Haisheng had seen many people die, and many had died in his hands . At this moment, as Qi Jingchen watched Nie Yi, he had no psychological shadows, and could even make suggestions .

But Su Haisheng was more terrified . He felt pain all over, and he couldn’t help cursing Nie Yi as perverted in his heart repeatedly . When he saw that Qi Jingchen could smile relaxedly at the side as he watched, even suggesting such a vicious idea…

While Nie Yi was ‘entertaining’ Su Haisheng, elsewhere, Zhang Zihai was shouting from the top of the Ferris wheel . “Hey! Down there! Don’t forget me ah! Hurry up and let me down!” He tightly gripped whatever he could hold and was too scared to look down; his voice was still rather calm, though— He wanted to keep his pride!

If they were standing on a skysc.r.a.per, Zhang Zihai wouldn’t be scared . When he sat in a plane, he had been unlucky and was frightened when the plane encountered turbulence . But this Ferris wheel that would rust after a few days of disuse… If he fell down…

It was then that the people below realised that they had nearly forgotten about Zhang Zihai and Ping Shengchao, and slowly let them down .

“Do you want to play on anything else?” Now that the serious matters had been completed, they wanted to play, and could take turns .

“No!” Zhang Zihai hastily expressed .

Ping Shengchao also said, “I’ll wait here for my boss, you guys go play ba . ”

Ping Shengchao said he wanted to stay behind to wait for Nie Yi, but in truth, it was to pick out the ones among Su Haisheng’s former aides that couldn’t stay and kill them .

Those who had to go were written in the list Nie Yi had given him, and some he had personally investigated in the past few days .

It didn’t matter if these people were genuinely loyal to Su Haisheng or not . After all, even if they had been very loyal, they definitely wouldn’t sacrifice their lives to avenge Su Haisheng after his death . As such, he only looked at whether they had performed heinous deeds .

“Tao Shengyi once seized several young girls in the secure base, and murdered two of the girls’ parents… Tang Chunyun, for a batch of food, killed off a family who owned a supermarket and fled to the secure base… Huang Haiying…” Ping Shengchao announced their names one by one . Those who were called were dragged aside .

Right at this time, a beautiful little girl appeared from the side and pointed at someone who hadn’t been singled out . “Sir! That one killed my mom!”

Ping Shengchao knew this girl . She was one of the children that Qi An had brought back .

Ping Shengchao knew that Qi An had a s.p.a.ce ability, and was very patient with the children Qi An had brought back . He promptly said, “Explain the situation . ”

This girl sobbed a few times, then explained she had been captured with her mother by this person, and she had been saved by Qi An . After Ping Shengchao listened to this, he immediately dragged the culprit out .

By the time they had finished their arrangements, Nie Yi and Qi Jingchen had returned, but with no trace of Su Haisheng .

At first, Qi Jingchen honestly did want to torment Su Haisheng, but he felt uncomfortable later from the strong b.l.o.o.d.y smell . Seeing this, Nie Yi quickly ended Su Haisheng’s life and burnt him into ashes .

Even though he still hadn’t extinguished his vicious anger, the revenge was for Qi Jingchen . He couldn’t make Qi Jingchen uncomfortable, even if he still wanted to torment Su Haisheng .

“Let’s go back ba,” Qi Jingchen said . When they returned to the base, they still had many things to do .

After Nie Yi and Qi Jingchen brought back Su Haisheng’s captive subordinates to W County secure base, Nie Yi held a ‘public a.s.sembly’ to interrogate these people .

Those who weren’t charged were just locked up, but those who had committed offenses would have their charges announced one by one, then be executed .

When they started, they were worried that W County secure base’s people may be discontent, or perhaps support Su Haisheng and the rest . But the outcome made them understand that they had been overthinking .

Their group’s previous behaviour had already given W County secure base’s people a favourable impression . Now, to the W County secure base’s civilians’ eyes, they appeared to be punis.h.i.+ng corrupt officials, so how could they not be pleased? They were ecstatic!

When the crimes had been announced, the members of Su Haisheng’s men who had criminal charges and stayed in the base were all dragged out and executed . Some even thought Nie Yi was simply a just, incorruptible official…

Of course, many were excited, but some held worries in their heart— Nie Yi and the others would leave; when they did, would this secure base return to its past state?

Aside from that… regarding the secure base’s food and supplies… Would Nie Yi and the others take them away?

While these people were worrying, Nie Yi stood up . “I have one more matter to address . There are still many people living in this base . Everyone is the secure base’s owner, so I’ve decided that the secure base’s present food and supply reserves will now become public!”

Regardless if they were nearby, or if they were listening to the secure base’s broadcast from afar, everyone cheered when they heard this .

In the crowd, there was someone whose face was filled with misgivings . It was Qi Weiguo, who Qi Yaoyao had brought back . “That person… seems to be the one who stopped us to ask for Jingchen’s address?”
