Lam Pham also didn't know Officer Hoang's evolution situation.
He didn't ask.
Officer Hoang was a person with his own thoughts. When it was time to show off, he would naturally show off.
"Okay, it's settled. A clean armor is just that cool," Lam Pham praised.
"Woof woof."
"No need to thank me. This is what I should do."
Lam Pham communicated with Officer Hoang.
As for the meaning of "woof woof," it could be any meaning...
Not long after.
They arrived at the shelter Phung Tinh had mentioned. It was an abandoned old building, with an unknown construction date and an unknown time of abandonment. From the outside, it looked extremely desolate and dilapidated.
The road leading to this shelter was scattered with some rotten corpses, and also some human bones, even skulls.
"These are all dead people. They were framed and died in the shelter, and were thrown outside."
Phung Tinh and her companions looked at the surrounding situation, their minds recalling all sorts of scenes from the past.
That was a cruel, terrifying, unimaginable living hell.
To live, one had to think of all sorts of ways, and even engage in life-and-death struggles with others.
Lam Pham frowned slightly. The current situation was a bit more terrifying than he had imagined.
Combined with the surrounding rusty vehicles and the rare crows waiting to feed on the utility poles, his mood was very heavy. Anyone would find such an environment a bit unacceptable.
...
Just then, a sinister laugh came.
A piece of camouflaged ground was lifted, and a figure crawled out at high speed.
The other's whole body was extremely dirty, his expression a bit crazy. He was holding a gun and aiming it at Lam Pham's group.
"Don't move, or I'll blow your heads off. One person, one shot. Your bodies will have many holes."
This male survivor had long hair, which was extremely dirty. It was clear that in this nearby building, he had not changed his clothes, nor had he bathed. He was already half a savage in the apocalypse.
Lam Pham looked at Officer Hoang.
With a police officer at the scene, he didn't need to make a move. Sure enough, just as he had thought, the survivor, who looked like a bad person at first glance, was holding a weapon. In Officer Hoang's understanding, this was a violation. If an ordinary person was holding a gun to protect themselves, Officer Hoang could understand.
But this fellow before him was clearly unqualified.
Officer Hoang was very fast. In an instant, he appeared in front of this survivor. With a bang, he directly blew off the other's head. A mist of blood drifted. The headless body fell to the ground with a thud.
Phung Tinh and her companions trembled slightly, their hearts shaken.
To attack at such close range, how could it not shock them?
Lam Pham said, "Don't be afraid. Officer Hoang is very friendly. The reason he didn't do this to you is because you are qualified survivors, that is, ordinary citizens. Officer Hoang will not harm any ordinary people."
"And he will protect you."
Hearing Lam Pham's explanation.
Phung Tinh and her companions nodded blankly. Whether it was true or not was no longer the point. The point was whether you could choose to believe.
At least now they chose to believe.
"Officer Hoang, we'll wait for you outside. You are a police officer. There are many extremely vicious thugs inside. If there are ordinary citizens, you bring them out," Lam Pham said.
He could naturally follow Officer Hoang in, but there was no need. Phung Tinh and her companions were already a bit overwhelmed by the sight of Officer Hoang punishing the bad guys.
If they saw more such scenes, it was hard to say if it wouldn't have an impact on their hearts.
"Woof woof."
Officer Hoang roared lowly and walked towards the shelter. The seemingly locked iron gate was like paper in front of Officer Hoang. The only thing that could stop it was an enhanced crystal.
Metal that had not been enhanced was very fragile in front of an evolved zombie.
A moment later.
The sound of gunfire came from inside the shelter, as well as angry roars and panicked screams.
Lam Pham knew that Officer Hoang was already in action.
"Brother... Brother Lam, can I call you that?" Phung Tinh asked timidly.
"Of course you can," Lam Pham said with a smile.
"How will Officer Hoang deal with the people inside?"
Lam Pham said, "Officer Hoang is someone who can't tolerate a grain of sand in his eyes. He is very friendly to ordinary citizens, but he will only use the strictest means to punish thugs. As for what kind of means, it's what you just saw."
Phung Tinh and her companions looked at each other.
Fear flickered in their eyes.
Lam Pham continued, "After Officer Hoang left Hoang City, I encountered some people who didn't quite meet the requirements, but I put them all in the Hoang City prison for re-education. Some people may need to be re-educated for a long time, but I think some people won't take long to complete their re-education."
Phung Tinh said, "Then why didn't you go in and persuade Officer Hoang, Brother Lam? You could have put them in prison."
"No, I am not a police officer. I am just an ordinary citizen cooperating with Officer Hoang. When Officer Hoang appears, I just need to be with the masses, watch quietly, and not think too much about other things," Lam Pham said.
He had no objection to Officer Hoang's actions. The scary people in the apocalypse were truly terrifying. He had met many. If it weren't for his own strength being relatively strong, he might have encountered many misfortunes.
Trusting some thugs would often put oneself in danger.
Phung Tinh could not refute, and even felt that Brother Lam's words seemed to have some truth.
But it was very strange.
She just couldn't find a reason to refute.
"Phung Tinh, it has always been a life for a life. To live a normal life, you need a stable order. Officer Hoang's code of conduct is a kind of order. Actually, don't think that Officer Hoang will kill anyone who does evil. In fact, for some small mistakes and commotions, Officer Hoang will not harm the other."
"I have brought many people who have made mistakes to Officer Hoang. Officer Hoang just showed an angry expression and yelled at them a few times, and did nothing else."
Lam Pham was really afraid that Phung Tinh would misunderstand Officer Hoang, so he deliberately explained.
"Oh."
Phung Tinh nodded half-understandingly.
As if she understood, and as if she didn't.
And just as they were talking.
Officer Hoang's figure appeared. But what surprised Lam Pham was that Officer Hoang was actually wiping the bloodstains on his chest armor with a cloth.
This made Lam Pham very happy.
Wasn't this a kind of progress?
Officer Hoang really had him in his heart.
At the same time, he saw several survivors following behind Officer Hoang.
There were old people, women, and children.
When Phung Tinh saw that child, her face changed slightly, and she said in a low voice, "Brother Lam, why did Officer Hoang bring that child out? That child is particularly scary. As far as I know, he is only twelve this year, but he has already killed several people, and it was torture, particularly cruel and terrifying."
"As far as I know, one of the people he tortured was a pregnant woman. That was a long time ago, and the scene was very terrifying."
She had a particularly deep impression of the boy.
When everyone was still relatively normal, this boy was particularly fond of making trouble, teasing others, and had even put people in danger many times.
When he was reprimanded, he didn't even know it. His eyes were full of anger, and he made a throat-slitting gesture at the person who reprimanded him.
Hearing her words.
Lam Pham walked up to Officer Hoang, then looked at the child behind him. It was just as Phung Tinh had said. The tyranny in this boy's eyes was very heavy, revealing a kind of ferocity and cunning. Although it was well hidden, it was still seen by Lam Pham.
The so-called concealment was that when he made a serious mistake, he would cry and say that he was still a child and didn't know anything.
This kind of situation could deceive others.
But Officer Hoang was not so easily deceived.
"Officer Hoang, is it because he is still a minor?" He knew Officer Hoang's principles. Even if he became a zombie, all his past regulations were imprinted in his mind. Even if he encountered something very angry, he had to follow the regulations.
Because the other was still too young.
"Woof woof."
