Chapter 1018: Dead Person
On the morning when the armed police officers arrived at the village, Mayor Ji Xiang finally breathed a huge sigh of relief.
It would have been difficult to find a reason to keep an entire village from leaving with just a few people.
But as soon as the officers arrived, with weapons and a human wall in place, the villagers, simple and honest as they were, even if someone had doubts or ulterior motives, wouldn’t dare to break the rules easily.
This straightforward village chief never thought of letting his family lead people out.
Once the matter of the blockade was handed over to the armed police officers, Mayor Ji Xiang hurried to the Karst Cave.
As the night had passed, he didn’t know what the situation was now.
When he arrived at the Karst Cave, he saw Bai Xiao and Xiaoyu holding disinfectant spray, diffusing it throughout the cave. The strong smell of disinfectant had already spread everywhere.
The male and female wards had been separated by a curtain.
Now, twenty people were lying in the Karst Cave.
The village numbered only around eighty to ninety people, so on average, almost every household had one person affected.
Bai Xiao saw Mayor Ji Xiang, waved at him, signaling him not to come in and to wait outside the cave entrance.
"Do you have any business, Mayor Ji Xiang?"
