Chapter 1305: Chapter 51: Heart of the Condemned [2-in-1]
"Not just found your home? My home was found too."
"...me too."
The crowd whispered among themselves, and then suddenly realized: all nine hundred and ninety-eight people indeed had homes and careers!
Complete with wives and children.
And all this information was in the hands of the Guardian.
They couldn’t help but exchange bitter smiles, "No wonder General Zhao was so confident letting us redeem ourselves. So that’s why."
"Bullshit, without a hold on us, we’d be long gone. So... it’s good to leave a hold on someone. Damn it, it can save your life."
"Exactly, exactly."
Everyone nodded repeatedly.
Just then.
Suddenly, a wave of killing aura outside roared to life, like the surging tides.
Everyone looked at each other in dismay.
Some people’s faces turned pale: "I’m most afraid of this person. Every time this killing aura rises, I feel like I’m already at the execution ground... these days, over forty thousand have been taken away and beheaded because of this aura..."
Someone nearby reassured, "Relax, Captain Fang is not coming towards us this time. We’ve been settled... Captain Fang is going to the death row to pick someone up for execution."
"But I still feel like peeing..."
"Me too, me too..."
"Thank God, finally we don’t have to face this killing aura every day."
Everyone felt extremely grateful.
And then... the aura grew closer and stronger, like a tidal wave sweeping the world...
Everyone’s faces turned a bit pale: "No... can’t be? Why does it feel like it’s coming our way?"
"Damn it... the smell is really strong."
One person turned pale, trembling: "No... no, it’ll turn soon, it’ll turn."
"Hurry up and turn... we are all good people now. All teachers... Please Lord Fang..."
"This... why does it feel like a direct rush...?"
Someone was so scared they pressed their legs together.
Really need to pee... but I’m also a teacher now, how can I pee out of fear?
It’s no wonder these people are scared. If they had no hope of surviving and were just waiting to be executed daily, they might not be so timid.
But the problem is they already know they can survive.
Yet still in these days, in the death row, they’ve continuously watched batch after batch taken out by Fang Che for execution.
The thrill of life and death is experienced several times a day, anyone would need to pee!
Now it’s developed to the point where Fang Che doesn’t even need to really come.
Just someone shouting: "Captain Fang!" these three words...
Everyone would feel like wetting themselves.
This has almost become a reflex, every time the killing aura surges, they’ll rush to raise their hands: "Guardians, need to go to the toilet..."
The aura grew thicker.
Closer and closer.
At first, everyone was whispering and discussing, but slowly fewer people spoke, then no one spoke at all.
Sitting stiffly.
Eyes wide open, unfocused as they stared ahead, waiting for their fate to be declared.
Then, they experienced a situation they’ve been through countless times before.
As the killing aura approached.
The sound of clanging footsteps, just like Death stepping to the beat, walking step by step with a sense of purpose.
Pa! One step!
Pa! Another step!
Their hearts, synchronized completely with Captain Fang’s footsteps, gradually matched perfectly.
Closer and closer.
No turn! No turn!
Heartbeat deviated from Captain Fang’s footsteps.
Started thumping wildly.
Even stopped breathing.
Footsteps paused at the doorway.
Then everyone tilted their heads blankly, desperately looking at the door.
Heartbeat like a torrential rain, felt in their throats.
Don’t come in!
Please don’t come in!
We beg you... turn around and go back!
Sobs... we are teachers, we have reformed and repented, cleaned up our past and started anew!
Expecting something else.
This door opened against their wishes.
Bang!
A tall, black-clothed figure stood at the doorway.
