Proof of Allegiance (1)

After killing the blond, Zhang Xiaodao threw the knife in his hand to the ground again and raised his hands in surrender to Chu Heng.

The rest of the thugs hid in the security booth, not daring to come out.

Second Brother Qi was the strongest among them, and the blond was ranked second. Now that the two of them had directly or indirectly died in the hands of Chu Heng and Zhang Xiaodao, they did not dare to show their faces at all, afraid that Chu Heng's arrows would land on them in the next moment.

Chu Heng frowned and walked over. He picked up the pistol in Second Brother Qi's hand and said calmly to Zhang Xiaodao.

"I have two questions. If your answers satisfy me, I can consider not killing you."

Zhang Xiaodao raised his eyebrows and still had a smile on his face. "Boss, tell me… I will definitely tell you everything I know."

Chu Heng was stunned by his strange attitude. Normally, shouldn't he show off in front of him first before becoming so obedient after he was beaten up?

"First question. Name, age, attributes."

"I'm Zhang Xiaodao. You can also call me Xiaodao. I'm 23 years old this year. Strength 12, Agility 15, Constitution 13."

Chu Heng stared at him for a few seconds. All the stats were exactly the same as the hidden hint, so he asked the second question. It was also the question that really decided Zhang Xiaodao's life or death.

"Second question. Your relationship with them. Why did you kill him?"

"Uh…" Zhang Xiaodao pondered for a moment and said, "Boss, can I put my hands down? It's a little sore…"

After some thought, Chu Heng nodded.

Based on the difference in attributes between the two of them, it was impossible for Zhang Xiaodao to succeed in ambushing him. Moreover, if he had the intention, it was impossible for him not to pick up Second Brother Qi's pistol. There was also no need for him to kill his teammates. He wouldn't just raise his hands and surrender without being on guard against him.

Zhang Xiaodao thanked him and shook his sore arms. Then, he pointed at the lifeless Second Brother Qi and said.

"As you can see, Boss, they and I are both street thugs. This man is called Second Brother Qi. He's considered our boss."

"As for the reason for killing the two of them, that's a long story…"

Chu Heng interrupted him and said coldly, "Long story short."

"Oh…" Zhang Xiaodao said. He organized his words and said with a nostalgic expression.

"I was born in Ocean City. There was a girl I grew up with. Her name was Xiaoyu. She was my first love."

"My grades have always been good, but Xiaoyu's grades weren't too good. We weren't in the same school in high school, but we kept in touch. It wasn't until the college entrance examination was about to be held that Xiaoyu was raped by a group of hooligans on the way home from school."

"Later on, Xiaoyu couldn't stand the strange gazes of the surrounding students and the coercion of that group of people, so she finally chose to commit suicide."

"Is Second Brother Qi the leader?" Chu Heng asked with a frown.

He hated the scum who attacked underage students the most in his life.

Zhang Xiaodao shook his head.

"He's not. But he and this blond were participants. The leader is named Zhang Meng. Everyone in the underworld calls him Master Meng."

After saying that, Zhang Xiaodao glanced at Chu Heng and continued.

"After I found out about this, I couldn't recover from the setback. During the college entrance examination, I only scored an ordinary college."

F*ck… what did he mean when he said he only scored an ordinary college because he didn't perform well…

Chu Heng glanced at him. After hearing his words, he could not help but think of how he had risked his life to barely get into an ordinary university. He immediately felt upset and looked at Zhang Xiaodao unhappily.

"Go on…"

"Oh…" Zhang Xiaodao looked at Chu Heng's expression again. He did not know how he had offended him, but he continued carefully.

"After I went to university, I kept thinking about Xiaoyu's death. I lived in a daze all day and lost the direction of my life. Later, I accidentally learned that Second Brother Qi was one of the perpetrators at that time and decided to avenge Xiaoyu."

"My parents were weak and didn't want to cause trouble. They took my studies seriously. I had no choice. I found a rich second-generation friend I knew and made him cooperate with me in a play. He forced the school to expel me. I firmly refused to take the college entrance examination again."

"Because of this, my parents were so angry that they disowned me."

"Later on, I created an opportunity to become Second Brother Qi's underling and slowly found out who the original participant was."

"When I was on Planet Earth, I never found a chance to take revenge. I didn't expect that after descending to this world, I was very lucky to be in the same building as him and the blond. The opportunity came."

"After that, it was just like what you saw…"

After saying that, Chu Heng carefully sized up Zhang Xiaodao.

He did not look like a university student at all. There was no scholarly or refined aura about him. He was just like a hooligan on the streets.

If his story was true, and everything else aside, this Xiaodao was definitely a loyal and quick-witted talent.

At this moment, another question appeared in Chu Heng's mind. He asked curiously,

"If you hadn't saved him when I shot the first arrow, he would have been dead by then. Why save him if you hate him?"

Zhang Xiaodao looked up at Chu Heng and said his thoughts honestly without any hesitation.

"I did it for selfish reasons, too. Two main ones."

"First, these two were participants at the time. I want to kill them myself."

"Second, and most importantly, I don't want to die."

Chu Heng narrowed his eyes and was immediately interested.

"Oh? What do you mean?"

Zhang Xiaodao blinked and chuckled. His originally delicate face looked a little wretched with his purple hair and street clothes.

"Boss, I've seen you clear the zombies in the underground parking lot that day. There were at least 80 to 90 zombies who died in your hands. Coupled with the zombies in the open-air area you cleared, you should have more than 150 Crystal Cores."

"And from the longbow on your body and your initial performance, I'm guessing you opened a treasure chest in the beginning and most likely obtained the build potion."

"With the number of Crystal Cores you obtained, with your intelligence, you shouldn't only add one attribute, so there should be two attributes between 40 and 50."

"Plus the ones in the underground parking lot at the back and the ones in the residential buildings. It's not impossible for your one attribute to reach sixty."

"Moreover, from the fact that you were able to dodge bullets in your battle with Second Brother Qi, I can tell that your agility is definitely very high."

Zhang Xiaodao secretly looked up at Chu Heng and realized that his expression did not change. Then, he continued.

"Actually, from the first time I watched you lure and kill the zombies in the underground parking lot, I never thought of going against you. I also never thought that Second Brother Qi would be your match."

"When Second Brother Qi shot at you, I knew that if I didn't do anything, I probably wouldn't be able to escape after Second Brother Qi died."

"Big shot, you should have heard of the word 'proof of allegiance'. This Second Brother Qi is my proof of allegiance."

"If possible, I want to follow you, big shot…"
