Du Yue listened quietly to the curses and insults coming out of his mouth and sneered. “It seems that destroying your eyes isn’t enough for you to learn. If you say another word, don’t even think about keeping your tongue.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the man’s foul language was instantly stuck in his throat, and he no longer made any sound.
There was a crowd of onlookers nearby. After hearing Du Yue’s calm threat and looking at the man’s frightened look, they looked at Du Yue with respect. The lady in front of them clearly looked weak and harmless, but she was so ruthless!
The man’s eyes were still pierced with steel needles. Everyone looked on in fear. They knew that Du Yue’s words were not just a threat. She was really capable of doing what she had just said.
Du Yue did not regret her actions of turning the foul-mouthed man blind at all. She glanced at the crowd around her. Seeing that no one was going to plead for the man and no one moved, she turned to look at the man again. “Don’t keep insulting women. Your mother is a woman too. Since you can’t say anything nice, I think it’s better to cut off your tongue so that you won’t bring shame to your mother.”
The man’s face was filled with fear when he heard this. He reached out and covered his mouth tightly. He subconsciously retreated as his head shook uncontrollably. Du Yue felt that if he did not stop, his brain would be shaken into a paste.
As she was thinking of this, the man tripped and fell to the ground. The onlookers who were surrounding the man saw the man fall to the ground and ran a few meters away. Everyone stood at a safe distance and looked at the man on the ground. Their faces were full of vigilance and worry, afraid that he would take it out on them.
As Du Yue watched, she suddenly recalled that this scene was a little like before the apocalypse. When someone fell on the road, the first reaction of most pa.s.sersby was not to help but to be afraid of being scammed. It was not that people were becoming more and more indifferent, but that the cost of doing good in this world was too high. Not to mention what would happen in this chaotic apocalyptic world.
Du Yue did not plan to stay any longer. She shot the man a cold glance and was about to leave. Just as she was about to leave, she heard a man’s voice behind her, which was deliberately lowered. “He was just joking. He didn’t even touch her, but she blinded him. Isn’t that a little too much? Moreover, she injured someone in public and is about to turn around and leave. Why is it that in this apocalyptic world, there are no consequences when committing a crime?”
His voice was a little hoa.r.s.e, and it was obvious that he was deliberately squeezing his throat to speak. The man who was lying on the ground also perked up when he heard this. He stretched his neck and shouted, “Murder! Someone tried to kill me in the base! Does this world still have laws? The first base is so big. Is there no leader who can uphold justice for us ordinary people? Is it because this b*tch has a powerful backer that she can do whatever she wants in the base? Are the lives of us ordinary people so worthless?”
Listening to the man’s heart-wrenching accusations, Du Yue sneered. “It seems that you’re still unrepentant even at the end of your life. You’re still relying on your nasty mouth.” As she spoke, Du Yue reached out to her waist and pulled out a short dagger that glowed coldly from under her loose short-sleeved shirt.
The man lying on the ground had steel needles in his eyes, so he could not see Du Yue’s movements. However, the moment the blade was unsheathed, it made a buzzing sound, which he still caught. In addition, the people around him subconsciously gasped and retreated, making the man feel that something was wrong.
His face was full of panic, and he was so scared that he kept stepping back. Under the intense fear, he could not even complete his sentence.”Y-Y-You… What are you doing? I’m telling you, murder is illegal—”
Before he could finish his sentence, he felt his chin being clenched by an irresistible force. The pain was unbearable, and he subconsciously opened his mouth. The person took the opportunity to put something in his mouth. Before he could react, he felt a cold wind blowing in his mouth, followed by severe pain. The man twitched a few times in pain and then fainted.
Du Yue stood up unhurriedly. She took out a white handkerchief from her bag and carefully wiped the remaining blood on the dagger. After she was done, she took out a bottle of water to wash the dagger and her hands. The bottle of water was used up just like that. Du Yue nonchalantly stabbed the dagger into the water bottle. The moment she did so, the water bottle was easily split in half.
“If anyone has any objections, feel free to come and look for me.” Du Yue glanced around, her gaze sweeping over everyone’s face indifferently. Her tone was calm and indifferent.
