Chapter 53 - 53: House Arrest
Zhang Yi left with his men. The bodyguards who had stopped the people from leaving also left.
Those who kowtowed in front of Ye Xingchen’s window to beg for food and those who wanted to continue smashing the window also left one after another after Ye Xingchen lowered the inner layer of steel.
Ye Xingchen, on the other hand, had a good night’s sleep after washing up and getting into bed after comfortably eating a bowl of noodles.
Ye Xingchen’s life, which had been quiet for a long time, became lively again at this time.
The neighbors who had asked for help and insulted him in the past had slowly disappeared after they did not get a response from him. Now, they had reappeared.
But now, the vast majority of them came to beg Ye Xingchen, including those who had insulted him before.
After this battle, what little physical strength they had was already exhausted. Looking at Ye Xingchen’s 360-degree all-around defense, they began to give up.
Ye Xingchen was browsing through everyone’s messages on the top floor while eating soup dumplings when he suddenly heard the alarm in his house ring.
His expression changed as he watched the surveillance camera go from the elevator to the hall on the second floor. With a push of a button, the steel plates in front of and behind the floor-to-ceiling glass rose.
Outside, there were several people who had wrapped themselves up tightly. They were here to steal the corpses.
To be exact, they were here to steal the bodies that had been burned by the Molotov cocktails yesterday.
The sudden rise of the steel plate frightened them so much that their hands trembled as they carried the body. They almost threw the body into the snow again.
“Don’t, don’t misunderstand! We’re not here to mess with you!”
“We, we are just here to move the corpses!”
When they spoke, they were so guilty that they did not dare to look at Ye Xingchen. If one listened carefully, one could even hear that their voices were trembling.
Ye Xingchen’s lips curled up as he picked up his communicator.
“Oh? Moving corpses? Then it must have been hard for you to come all the way here. Are you their family? 1 don’t think the people you’re carrying are from the same family, right?”
“Where are you dragging the corpse? Are you going to drag it away to bury it? This is so troublesome. The snow here is so thick. Why don’t you just bury it here? Why did you have to make such a tiring trip?”
They were embarrassed by Ye Xingchen’s question.
“You, you don’t have to worry about it! We’re just here to help you clean up your place out of kindness! You, you don’t know what’s good for you!”
They gritted their teeth and ran away with the corpse.
Ye Xingchen looked at their fleeing figures and found it funny. He raised his hand and put the steel plate down again.
“You’re really ruthless. You were among the few people who secretly bit the corpse yesterday, right? Tsk tsk, you have finally reached this step.”
Zhang Yi’s eyes were red with anger in his villa. Even those who came to queue up to get supplies were chased away by him with a gun pointed at their heads.
However, there were too many of them. Zhang Yi’s bodyguards were still careless when dealing with so many people. As a result, there was a riot. Someone took advantage of Zhang Yi and his bodyguards’ lack of attention and quietly went forward to stab Zhang Yi.
However, that person did not get away. Zhang Yi shot him in the head.
Zhang Yi even raised his gun and shot the people who sneaked up to him.
“Get lost! Get lost!”
With three more people dead, the others were scared out of their wits and ran back to their homes in panic.
Through the surveillance camera, Ye Xingchen saw that blood was already oozing out from the edge of the knife on Zhang Yi. He was being helped into the villa.
No matter how thick Zhang Yi’s clothes were, they could not withstand such a long bone-cutting knife.
“Hurry up! Hurry up and call Doctor Lin over!”
Zhang Yi clenched his fists and his eyes turned red with anger. He held his pistol tightly in his hand. This was his last resort.
His eyes were malicious as he sat on the cold sofa with a frown. The uneasiness in his heart grew stronger.
When he came back yesterday, he saw Ye Xingchen’s message in the group.
However, he did not care. After all, compared to Ye Xingchen’s minor attacks, he had real bullets in his hands.
However, he had underestimated the madness of people in desperate situations.
Beads of sweat seeped out of Zhang Yi’s forehead, and the pain from his wound was unbearable. He looked at his phone screen repeatedly, hoping that Lin Sijia would arrive soon.
Lin Sijia came over with a first aid kit. When she passed by the courtyard full of corpses, she subconsciously frowned.
“I won’t do free house calls. You know the rules, right?”
Zhang Yi gritted his teeth and nodded. He pointed to the kitchen and said, “I’ll give you double the food we gave them before.”
Lin Sijia nodded and nimbly opened the first aid kit to pull out the bone cleaver from his back and treat the wound.
The wound was not big, but it was deep. Fortunately, the bone cutter was still clean, so Zhang Yi would not be infected for the time being. He was considered lucky.
Lin Sijia packed her things and carried the first aid kit on her back. She stood up and reached out her hand to Zhang Yi.
Zhang Yi raised his hand and made a gesture. His subordinates came out from the kitchen with two pieces of cut meat tied up.
Lin Sijia was about to take it when she glanced at it and stared at the piece of meat in shock.
Her expression changed. The smell of blood and a special smell had already drifted into her nose.
Lin Sijia, who worked in the hospital all year round and had to deal with dead people from time to time, naturally knew what this was. She took a step back and suppressed the urge to vomit. She retracted her outstretched hand and whispered to Zhang Yi. “This time, consider it a free consultation.”
Unexpectedly, Zhang Yi gave a look to the side, and someone instantly stopped in front of Lin Sijia.
Lin Sijia was shocked. “What are you doing?”
Zhang Yi’s low and hoarse voice was heard. “It’s nothing. It’s just that Doctor Lin can’t leave before my injuries recover.”
Zhang Yi was also very afraid.
There were countless people out there who wanted to take his life. If he was injured this time, what about the next time?
Although the people around him were loyal, none of them knew medicine.
Without a doctor by his side, Zhang Yi could not relax.
“Besides, Doctor Lin has already bandaged my wound. 1 can’t take advantage of Doctor Lin’s help, right? Of course, 1 have to treat Doctor Lin well.”
Lin Sijia was scared out of her wits. When she looked at Zhang Yi again, she only felt that his face was repulsive, like a monster that wanted to eat people.
Not long after, Zhang Yi’s subordinate brought over a pot of unknown mixture.
When Lin Sijia thought of what might be inside, she almost vomited on the spot.
Zhang Yi asked someone to bring over a bowl and chopsticks for Lin Sijia. Lin Sijia could only refuse with a pale face, saying that she was not hungry yet.
Even when Zhang Yi and the others were eating, Lin Sijia did not dare to look at them.
“I have to contact Ye Xingchen as soon as possible.” Lin Sijia thought..
