“The magnesium flare has marked the position!” The next moment, there was a short command from the city’s defense. “Ready!”

The moment the order was given, a sharp noise erupted from an armored vehicle in the vicinity. There was a shrill scream and a combustion bomb with thick smoke hit the positions indicated by the magnesium flare.

All of this happened in a flash. There was the pungent smell of burning and bodies in the crowd fell heavily to the ground. Smoke rose from his body and screams rang out through the square at once.

Du Sai’s grip on him suddenly tightened. She said, “That man was sitting right behind me.”

“However, he didn’t attack people. I’m fine.” She seemed relieved. “That was a white phosphorus bomb. He should be dead.”

She looked at the top of the black market building. Lu Feng’s figure had disappeared from the top of the building but she still stared over there. An Zhe watched her. In the twilight, Ms Du’s mature face suddenly showed an unusual serenity.

After a minute, the screams around them gradually faded. On the ground where people retreated from, the black and twisted limbs stopped convulsing and remained motionless. The others in the square seemed relieved but the blockade of the city defense station wasn’t loosened.

“The colonel saved me once five years ago.” An Zhe heard Du Sai suddenly speak. “It was at the city gates and it is almost the same as it is now.”

An Zhe didn’t speak as he felt the atmosphere gradually calm down. That day at the gate, he understood why some people hated Lu Feng. Today, he understood why some people didn’t hate him.

Three minutes later, the soldiers of the city defense station forcibly separated a path in the crowd and Lu Feng took people over to look at the four corpses. Due to their location, An Zhe and Du Sai were very close.

He put on snow-white gloves, knelt on one knee, pulled out the corpse in the centre and ordered briefly, “Knife.”

The judge by his side handed over a sharp knife. Immediately after, he saw Lu Feng cut the belly open with no expression. The charred body had a pungent smell but the interior of the exposed abdominal cavity didn’t have the organs that humans should have. Instead, there were dense, small and multi-coloured, yellowish transparent things in the thousands or millions.

An Zhe stared and felt like it was insect larvae, something like spiders, and squirmed slightly. He saw Lu Feng frown and the knife cut sharply, opening up the esophagus and throat of the body. Similar things were constantly falling out.

“The parasitic type and highly prone to spread.” Lu Feng got up, took off his gloves and threw them on the body. Another judge immediately handed him new ones.

Then he ordered, “Check everyone.”
