Zuo Lin'an casually wiped the knife clean before leaving the blood-soaked room.
His clothes were stained with a bit of blood, but it didn't matter.
There were several backpacks upstairs, each containing three prison uniforms. Since the backpacks now belonged to him and Xu Youyou, they wouldn't run out of clean clothes anytime soon.
Besides, in the dead of night, no one would notice unless they looked closely.
Moreover, since he had to kill someone on the hour, changing his clothes now would be a waste.
He would wait until dawn when they had to move elsewhere.
Thirteen prisoners.
Even if Xu Youyou didn't touch a single one and left them all for him to kill, they would only last him until ten o'clock tomorrow morning.
If he couldn't find other prisoners before ten tomorrow morning...
Zuo Lin'an frowned slightly. It seemed they would have to wake up early tomorrow and search the inhabited areas marked on the map. No matter how dangerous it might be, he had to find more people as soon as possible.
He returned to the top floor. Only when Xu Youyou saw him return did his friend stand up and head downstairs.
Zuo Lin'an sat in his original spot, taking over the guard duty.
Neither of them said a single word throughout the entire process.
The few prisoners who were still conscious quietly let out a sigh of relief when they saw Xu Youyou, that human gorilla, leave.
Although the Zuo Lin'an in front of them was also formidable, he at least looked like a normal human being.
Just then, the beautiful woman who had been staying quiet stared at the figure under the moonlight, and an idea began to form in her mind.
Earlier, she had tried to strike up a conversation with Xu Youyou, saying all sorts of sweet things, but she hadn't received a single response.
Therefore, she decided to switch targets.
After staring at Zuo Lin'an for a long while, she quickly made up her mind. Reaching up, she unbuttoned the top of her shirt, revealing her cleavage.
She didn't stand up either. Instead, she supported herself with both hands and crawled toward Zuo Lin'an on her knees.
It wasn't because she wanted to be submissive; she was just afraid that if she stood up, she would get beaten.
Zuo Lin'an had noticed her subtle movements long ago, but he didn't stop her, allowing her to crawl right up to him.
“Little brother, it's a long night. Would you like big sister to keep you company?”
“Big sister is very experienced, you know. I promise to show you a heavenly time...”
Over the years, she had played many men of all ages, and every single one of them had been utterly infatuated with her.
The Zuo Lin'an before her eyes was clearly just a young man. What woman wouldn't like such an energetic and handsome boy?
If anything, she was the one getting the better end of the deal.
Zuo Lin'an shifted his gaze, letting it fall on her face.
It had to be said that she was indeed beautiful.
She was a bit on the older side, with faint wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, but her skin was fair and she had a fantastic body.
His gaze drifted downward, taking in her open collar and the cleavage on display. He let out a soft chuckle.
“Good sister, do you really want to keep me company?”
The woman's eyes lit up. It seemed she had chosen the wrong target earlier!
This was the one she actually stood a chance of buttering up!
“Of course. I have a good eye for these things, and I can tell you don't have much experience. In a bit, I'll make sure you have a great time.”
Zuo Lin'an narrowed his eyes slightly, a smile playing on his lips.
“Since you put it that way, let's wait a little longer. Once my brother gets back, you can come downstairs with me.”
The woman smiled and leaned against him, her voice dripping with seductive allure.
“Sure, no problem!”
As she drew closer, she seemed to catch a strange yet familiar scent, but she didn't pay it much mind.
Right now, her only goal was to please this young man, who might not even be of age.
After all... she really didn't want to get beaten.
Her eyes inadvertently swept over the people lying haphazardly on the floor before she quickly looked away.
Time ticked by, minute by minute.
Xu Youyou ran to two locations as fast as he could. The supplies stored at both spots were still there, so he stuffed them all into his backpack and brought them back.
There wasn't much food; combined, the supplies from both locations would only last him and Zuo Lin'an for two or three days.
On his way back, he continued to study the map in his hands.
“Hmm... over here?”
He was looking at the nearest gathering point of criminals marked on the map.
There was another residential area there where death row inmates lived. Although the population was small—only a few dozen—it would only take them about an hour or two to walk there.
“Not bad. Tomorrow, we can head out with one or two of these guys in tow. We should be able to find a new source before we run out.”
“Brother An's rules are really a pain!”
“The teacher privately told me before that I should help him out if possible...”
“As if he even needed to say that. I was already planning to do so anyway!”
Mumbling to himself, he carried the backpack full of food and water back to the top floor.
The moment he returned, he saw a woman leaning against Zuo Lin'an with her clothes in disarray.
He froze for a moment, then realized what was happening.
Was this Zuo Lin'an's second target?
It looked like she had delivered herself right to his doorstep.
She was practically begging for death!
Did she not stop to think about why the person Zuo Lin'an dragged away earlier hadn't been brought back?
Anyone with even half a brain would have realized something was wrong.
When Zuo Lin'an saw his friend return, he pulled out his electronic clock to check the time.
【21:54:57】
Although Xu Youyou was fast, it had still taken him nearly an hour.
There were only a few minutes left before ten o'clock.
Zuo Lin'an stood up. “Come with me.”
The woman slowly rose, swaying her hips as she followed him downstairs, leaving only Xu Youyou sitting in his original spot.
He set the backpack he had brought back to one side and waited quietly.
Zuo Lin'an walked in front, while the woman followed cautiously behind.
“Little brother, where are we going?”
“Why don't we just do it here?”
“I'm sure your brother won't come down to disturb us.”
Zuo Lin'an led her to the room right next to the one where he had committed the murder earlier.
By now, a thick stench of blood had drifted out of that room. The woman found the scent odd at first, but then her face turned pale!
Only now did she realize what that strange yet familiar scent on Zuo Lin'an was.
It was... blood!
The smell of blood!
How could she have forgotten?
He had clearly killed someone earlier, so why had she forgotten?
How could she possibly forget?!
So, the unconscious man who had been dragged away by this little brother was already dead?
He had been killed?
Was he really killed?
But that wasn't right. They had clearly been told that killing was forbidden in Sin Hunter City!
Or was the man not dead yet?
But even if he wasn't dead, he had to be on the verge of death.
Otherwise, how could she explain such a heavy stench of blood?
She stopped in her tracks, standing frozen as her entire body began to tremble uncontrollably.
“No... No...”
As she stopped, Zuo Lin'an, who was walking ahead, stopped as well.
He didn't turn around. Instead, in his clear, youthful voice, he asked,
“Good sister, why have you stopped?”
“Didn't you say you were going to show me a heavenly time?”
