Chapter 182: The Interrogation

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Tang Susu couldn’t help but look at her second brother, who was even calmer.

“Just now, a group of people came over, crying and making a scene, then threatening to hang themselves. We were so annoyed by the noise that I complained about Mingchu. In the end, just as I chased those people away, I found someone sneaking upstairs.”

“Ah, what did he do?” Mrs. Tang asked.

The man on the ground instantly wriggled like a maggot, shaking his head wildly. “Ngh!”

Tang Susu tore off the tape on his face mercilessly. The man screamed in pain.

“Shut up! What did you do?”

The man was so frightened that he trembled. He couldn’t care less about his swollen mouth and face. “I didn’t. I didn’t want to do anything…”

“Still not telling the truth!” Mrs. Tang thought of the vegetables on the roof and her eldest in the room. She raised her hand in anger.

In an instant, several fist-sized chunks of earth hit his body like huge hailstones in summer, directly hitting the man until his nose and face were swollen!

Ability users could practice how to control the strength and distance of their ability shots. Although Mrs. Tang was standing very close to Tang Susu, the strength she used still surprised Tang Susu. She was much better than she had first thought!

The man wailed in pain, “No, stop! I’ll tell you! I heard that there’s something good in your house, so I want to go and have a look…”

Tang Mingchu sneered and kicked him. The man flipped over and fell to the ground. He lifted the tip of his shoe and stepped on his head. “Are you sure you’re looking and not stealing?”

“Ah… Yes, I was stealing. I wanted to steal a little when you weren’t paying attention…”

“What do you want to steal? Why do you head upstairs?” Tang Mingqi’s expression was sharp.

“I… I wanted supplies … Ordinary people like us can’t survive any more. There’s no place nearby where we can collect supplies, and we don’t dare to go too far. Those metahumans don’t even want to take us with them when they act!”

“It wasn’t easy for us to beg them to let us go with them, but they treated us like human sandbags and took away the things we found… What we’ve hidden isn’t even enough for us to eat. I, I really have no choice. I have a four-year-old daughter at home…”

At the mention of his sore spot, the man couldn’t help but shed tears. His face was full of bitterness and despair, which could arouse people’s compassion.

If he encountered someone Saintly like the female lead in the original story, not only would she not pursue his mistakes, but she would also give him some supplies to better his life

However, Tang Susu couldn’t feel any sympathy for him. This person’s acting skills were superb, because the system told her…

‘He’s lying.’

‘What do you mean?’

‘This is the function of the system after it reached Level 7. To distinguish authenticity. 50 million per use.’

‘Did I tell you to use it?’ Tang susu’s voice was faint.

008, who had originally planned to charge a fee directly, cried. ‘The first three uses are free…’

Tang Susu smiled and praised it. Not that she was stingy, but according to how it priced its services, there wouldn’t be enough valuables in the country for her to plunder and she would have to go abroad.

However, 008’s words confirmed her suspicion.

The man kept on lying, and he had lost his credibility.

“Second brother, get his four-year-old daughter.”

The others were still at a loss about how to deal with this man, but upon hearing her words, their eyes lit up!

The man was shocked. “What… What are you doing?”

“What I’ll do depends on what you tell me.” Tang Susu sat down on the sofa with a smile. She picked a cherry from the fruit plate and put it in her mouth.

The juice immediately burst into her mouth. It was sweet and sour, and so delicious that she squinted her eyes. Things grown with superpowers were indeed different.

The man swallowed his saliva and quickly stopped Tang Mingqi. “Don’t go. I told you. I really told you!”

“You told us nothing!”

Even Tang Mingchu became furious. He felt this person was toying with them. He kept lying to them. This time, he believed him, but he was lying again!

He stepped forward and gave her another kick.

The man groaned and spat out a mouthful of blood. He suddenly clenched his fists in hatred. “I wanted to steal the T3 crystal core. I saw it. That Master Bai dug out the crystal core and gave it to you! I want to become stronger and never be harassed again! I can’t even protect the person I love the most, my wife, and my unborn child…”

This time, Tang Susu believed that he was telling the truth.

In the end, the system said, ‘host, he’s still lying!’

Tang Susu was speechless.

She knew that everyone in the post-apocalyptic world was smart. In order to survive, even the stupidest person would have some tricks in their sleeves.

However, she didn’t expect that this person could trick even a wary person like her time and time again.

Forget about her third brother. Even she was angry and was about to step forward and use violence.

008 spoke again. ‘He was not completely lying. According to the comprehensive data I have on human facial expressions and heartbeat, he was telling the truth, but he had some reservations…’

In that case, there was more to it than he had not told.

Tang Susu lowered her eyes.

Tang Mingqi and the others couldn’t tell if it was true or not, so they could only wait and see her reaction.

“What did you see upstairs?” asked Tang Susu after a while.

“No, I saw nothing. They discovered me before I could go in!” The man said heatedly.

Tang susu asked 008, ‘this is the last free chance. Is he telling the truth?’

‘Truth!’

“Alright,” he said. Tang Susu stood up and walked to the man’s side. “I admire people with ambition. But if you want to become strong, work hard with your own hands. Do you think you can really activate your superpower with your untrained body after stealing a T3 crystal core?”

The man was stunned by her reaction.

Tang Susu helped him up.

A trace of guilt flashed through his heart, but he didn’t show it on his face. “I… I can’t hunt for a T3 crystal core with my own strength, and I would have been eaten before I could even get close.”

“Then kill the T2s first. When you’ve killed a hundred, maybe you’ll be lucky enough to hunt a T3.”

The man was stunned again.

The others were even more confused.

However, they were familiar with Susu’s style and knew that there must be a reason for her every action.

However, Tang Susu made a decision that no one had expected.

“You can leave.”

“What?” the few of them said in unison.

Although the person did not open the door upstairs when Tang Mingchu caught him, he did not dare to take the risk. What if he had already seen it?

“We can’t let him go.” He picked up the knife beside him and said aggressively, “Let’s kill them and end it all!”

Tang susu pressed his shoulder. “If he dies, what will happen to his four-year-old daughter?”

The man raised his head and looked at her in disbelief.

Tang Susu also looked at him. “What else do you want to say?”

The man’s lips wriggled for a long time before he said awkwardly, “My name is Du Gang. Thank you for letting me go, Ms. Tang. And thank you for your advice!”

“Sure,” Tang Susu replied in a neutral tone. No one could tell what she was feeling.

Du Gang looked at her deeply. He was afraid that the others would not let him go, so he quickly dragged his painful body and limped out.

Before Mrs. Tang could ask her daughter why she did that, Mr. Tang came back with Cheng Cheng and her daughter.

“They were standing outside the door for a while.. What happened at home?”
