Chapter 832: The Sad Superpower
Ling Mo’s calm reaction unsettled the Glasses Man. The strange phenomenon during the shooting added to his unease, leaving him momentarily at a loss for words.
However, he regained his composure in a few seconds, managed a smirk, and said, “Why be so cold? I deliberately exposed myself earlier so you could find this place quickly. You should be grateful, shouldn’t you? … Among the people you brought, there’s that girl with the gun, right? … She’s impressive, she actually managed to hit me…” The Glasses Man slowly raised the arm holding the remote control, and couldn’t help but let out a groan of pain.
With cold sweat on his forehead, he laughed and said, “Ling Mo, do you think spreading out like this ensures safety? Unfortunately, it’s not that simple. I know you can see me, so you can see this thing too, right?”
Waving the remote control in his hand, the Glasses Man glared viciously at Ling Mo and said, “The moment I press this, there will be an explosion here, and this entire floor will collapse. If the bomb was placed upstairs, you might have a chance to climb out and survive, but down here? This is the lowest floor… How about it, do you want to take a gamble?”
“What exactly do you want? Looking at you, you don’t seem like you’re here for mutual destruction with me,” Ling Mo interrupted him.
“Mutually assured destruction? Hahaha…” The Glasses Man laughed maniacally, “Why would I do that? Look at me, I’m almost fifty… Do you know how hard it is for someone like me to stay alive?” His tone suddenly became slightly odd, as though it concealed a strong feeling of excitement beneath the surface, “Before the disaster struck, I was scorned! Sucking up to those high and mighty customers every day! Sometimes standing at someone’s door all day long, just to sell a box of medicine! Occasionally even kicked out by their kids…”
“…Uh, were your targets the elderly? You’re actually a scammer, aren’t you?” Ling Mo couldn’t help but say.
Such experiences don’t elicit any sympathy at all!
However, the Glasses Man seemed to have entered a state of frenzy as he continued to shout hysterically, “After the world changed, I stayed with a few colleagues. But I didn’t expect that because they were too afraid to go out to find food, they wouldn’t even share water with me! Do you know what I drank at that time?”
