But the next second, his half-crooked mouth was directly grabbed by a slender hand.

Jiang You pinned him to the ground, grabbing his mouth with one hand. "They said your crime isn't punishable by death, and I'm not an unreasonable person. So, if your mouth is gone, our business is settled."

With that, her fingers curled into claws, her nails digging into Skinny's lip as she began to tear.

Skinny's nose was still injured, and then he felt a tearing pain on his face.

This crazy woman, I just said a few things online.

I always talk like this, but who dares to touch me!

This bitch is so vicious, not only did she break my nose, but she's going to rip my mouth too!

Skinny felt like his lip was truly going to be torn off, his eyes widening in terror.

He looked towards Hao Jun, only to see that the siblings were being entangled by a cat.

Useless trash!

Can't even deal with a cat!

"Wuwuwuwu!!!!!"

Skinny struggled desperately, grabbing a nail hammer with both hands and smashing it towards Jiang You's head, but he didn't hit her once.

Jiang You bent his wrist backward with a snap, then punched him in the head.

He wanted to curse, but this time he couldn't, only letting out muffled sounds.

What does this crazy woman want!

"Wuwuwuwu!!!"

"Ahhhhhhh!!!!!!"

A heart-wrenching scream made the two people fighting Da Zhuang freeze.

Hao Jun and Hao Hong turned to look, and the next second, both their faces turned grim.

Jiang You had already walked back to the doorway along the steps, her slender, fair hands smeared with blood.

She was holding a bloody lump in her hand, casually tossing it aside.

On the other side, Skinny was rolling on the ground, clutching his head and wailing.

When he lowered his hands, his ripped mouth trembled, blood splattering everywhere. His lips were gone, revealing white teeth and bright red gums to the air, a terrifying sight.

And on the ground beside him lay a bloody piece of flesh, with a torn mouth still attached to it.

Although they had seen people killed many times in the apocalypse, and encountered all sorts of brutal perverts, this was the first time they had seen someone rip off another person's mouth.

During arguments, people would often say things like "I'll rip your mouth off," but that was just talk.

Who would be so perverted as to actually tear someone's mouth off!

Jiang You stood at her doorway, slowly wiping her fingers with a wet wipe.

Da Zhuang also stood beside her, glaring fiercely at the siblings.

"Meow!!"

It was the first time Hao Hong had seen such a ruthless woman. Tearing off Skinny's mouth, in this era with no medical conditions and where survival was uncertain, was no different from killing him.

Although Skinny was foul-mouthed, Hao Hong never dreamed that someone would actually rip off his lip one day.

This woman must have a screw loose, right?

Not only was her mind faulty, but she was also very strong.

Despite his tendency to talk big, Skinny wasn't weak, otherwise, he wouldn't have been so brazen.

He used to be in the combat training department. Even though he was small, a strong man might not be able to beat him in a fight.

But today, he was defeated by a woman who looked perfectly ordinary.

Hao Hong watched the blood continuously seeping from the gaps between Skinny's hands covering his mouth. Tearing off a mouth with just one hand was no simple feat.

And then there was the cat, which was terrifying at first glance.

She hadn't paid much attention during the fight earlier, but now, as both sides were in a standoff, Hao Hong stared at the ferociously fierce tabby cat, feeling a chill run down her spine.

It was also the first time she had seen such a ferocious cat. She used to own a cat, a beautiful Ragdoll, affectionate and cute.

She liked cats and dogs, but this was the first time she had seen a cat that made her feel creeped out the moment she looked at it.

This person and this cat were both freaks.

She glanced at Hao Jun, as if to say: See, this is the little freak you have a crush on?!

Hao Jun swallowed hard, his eyes on Jiang You filled only with apprehension.

Skinny hadn't lasted even half a minute in her hands, and she was completely unharmed.

And that cat, it clearly had no intention of killing them.

She just wanted to hold them back.

Despite the lack of communication between the person and the cat, their coordination during the burst was so perfect that Hao Jun couldn't help but envy them.

If he had such a cunning cat, things would definitely be twice as effective.

Skinny's mouth was gushing with blood, but at this moment, he was so enraged that he ignored the gun in Jiang You's hand and charged at her furiously.

"You bitch, I'll kill you!"

Jiang You tilted her head, "See? He wants to hack me. He's about to die now, right?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she raised her hand and fired. Skinny's forehead exploded right in the center.

The body rolled down the stairs.

This time, Hao Jun didn't stop her, because a severely injured wild beast wouldn't survive in the jungle.

Skinny had always liked to joke around with all the female survivors in the team without regard for propriety, which had caused quite a few conflicts, but they were always suppressed.

This time, he finally died because of his mouth.

Jiang You looked at Hao Jun, "You want me to join your team? It's not impossible, but if I hear anyone curse me, can I tear their mouth off?"

She asked, even with a sincere smile on her face.

If it were before, Hao Jun would have nodded eagerly.

But after seeing Skinny's mouth being ripped off alive.

He fell silent. Perhaps this young girl didn't need his protection.

Moreover, he didn't want to see any more team members without mouths.

He quickly shook his head, "I was just asking. If you don't have that intention, then forget it."

Hao Hong nodded repeatedly. What kind of team would idly seek out such a pervert?

She had seen plenty of saints and bodhisattvas, but this was her first time seeing a living king of hell.

And she actually had a gun. In the apocalypse, those with firearms undoubtedly had greater bargaining power.

Hao Hong couldn't help but think that if she really invited this deity back, she was afraid that she might say something impulsively and then have her mouth inexplicably torn off.

She subconsciously touched her full lips, then looked at the clump of flesh ripped from the ground, and shivered.

Such beautiful lips looked better on a face.

The two said goodbye to Jiang You and turned to leave.

But they heard a cool voice from behind, "Take your trash with you."

So Hao Jun carried Skinny's corpse away.

Hao Hong hesitated for a moment, then endured the nausea and picked up Skinny's mouth from the ground.

After seeing them off, Jiang You closed the door and continued to be a salted fish.

Up to now, she had only encountered one or two ability users outside.

But as time went on, more and more people would awaken their abilities.

Jiang You lay on the rooftop with binoculars and soon saw the figures of Hao Hong and Hao Jun.

Skinny's corpse was no longer on their backs. They skillfully killed the approaching zombies and quickly disappeared between two buildings.

Recently, a team arrived in the community. The team had quite a few members, estimated to be over a hundred people, and it seemed there were a few ability users among them.

A few days ago, that team cleared out the zombies wandering in the community and reinstalled the main gate.

While they were clearing zombies, Jiang You saw a fire ability user, a lightning ability user, and a plant ability user. These were the three she saw.

There might be other ability users who hadn't made a move.

This community was originally a closed-off community. The main gate had been damaged before, and no one had cleaned or repaired it, so many zombies wandered in from outside.

But after that team entered, the number of zombies wandering in the open spaces significantly decreased, and only two or three could be seen occasionally.

Just like when Hao Jun and Hao Hong rushed over earlier, they only encountered two approaching zombies.

That group had made a big show of clearing the zombies in the community and then occupied the three-story building of the service center.

These days, Jiang You observed with her binoculars on the rooftop when she had nothing else to do.

Several survivors had already gone to join that team.

Jiang You's rooftop offered an excellent field of vision.

With her binoculars, she could see the words "Thunder Team" sprayed in red paint on the exterior facade of the first floor of the three-story building.

She changed direction and focused her gaze outside the community wall.

This community wasn't large to begin with, with only three elevator buildings and a row of low-rise townhouses.

Therefore, the view outside the community wall was particularly clear.

The large iron gate had been re-closed, and a few zombies wandering from the road were clinging to the iron gate, scratching with their claws.

But as long as they weren't attracted by something special, these zombies usually wouldn't become agitated.

She watched for a while, finding it boring.

Then she put on her gloves and started hitting the sandbag, doing combat training.

Although she could have been lying on the sofa watching TV, Jiang You preferred the feeling of breaking a sweat.

People were like sponges; only by constantly squeezing themselves could they unleash more power.

After training, Jiang You began to wash up.

The water, cooled by the melting ice used to lower the temperature in the plastic bathtub in the living room, was just right for washing.

She showered first, and after she finished, she let Da Zhuang wash.

Da Zhuang hated bathing. Every time, Jiang You had to hold him underwater while he thrashed around, but after he was done, he always felt incredibly comfortable, almost not wanting it to end.

The water Da Zhuang used could then be used to water the vegetables, mop the floor, and flush the toilet.

Not a drop was wasted.
