I'm bad, but players love me

Enjoy this? Enjoy what?

Dim was trembling all over. He took the cigarette tremblingly and put it into his mouth tremblingly. Then he carefully took the lighter handed to him by Shalltear and lit it.

However, at this moment, a thick and pungent smoke entered her throat, forcing her to choke.

Amidst the incessant coughing, Dim vaguely heard Shalltear's reply.

"You'll enjoy killing them."

These words were like a sharp sword, piercing Dim's heart and making her shudder.

Chapter 83: I said you are ELO, you are

They? Who? The civilians?

Are you kidding me! Enjoy this?

Dim took the cigarette out of his mouth. She didn't dare to throw it away or smoke it, so she had to hold it between her fingers.

Her nostrils flared slightly, and then she exhaled heavily, as if she wanted to spit out the dirty nicotine along with her lungs.

After her expression changed several times, Dim still chose to remain silent. She pursed her lips tightly, and bit her lower lip with her front teeth, so hard that her lower lip began to turn white.

But she had to do it, had to try to suppress her surging emotions.

Dim didn't even dare to make any sound, and even his breathing became cautious.

Even so, she still felt that at some point she might lose control of her emotions, suddenly jump up and slap Shalltear violently, and then roar out insults like "Are you even a human being?"

However, she did not have the courage to actually put these ideas into practice.

After all, Dim knew that if she was lucky enough to survive after doing this, her life would not only have to be tough, but at least bulletproof.

Because she knew very well that if she dared to touch Shalltear, she would be dead.

By then, there would be no need for Shalltear to take action herself; her companions would consciously beat her into a piece of flesh riddled with holes and leaking air.

Everyone has a gun in their hands.

So Dim chose to remain silent.

But what she didn't expect was that in this group, silence would be considered sinister and was not allowed. The only thing they should do was to praise and flatter with all their might.

Shalltear glanced at Dim with an impatient expression and sneered contemptuously, "You're as cowardly as a maggot. With that much guts, I'm afraid you'll pee your pants soon."

Thankfully, Dim had long since lost his pride. Shalltear's rebuke cleared his mind, and his eyes grew clearer.

Shalltear was dissatisfied with her attitude.

In order to avoid being beaten before going to the battlefield, she hurriedly used the skills she had developed over the years - nodding and bowing, and flattering everyone around.

This shameless and dead look successfully made Shalltear lose interest. After saying "trash is trash", the group began to act.

After they walked about two kilometers out of the noble district, someone in the group asked, "Boss, what should we do next?"

The corners of Shalltear's mouth curled up slightly, revealing an undisguised smile. Then she raised her hand and slapped the man's helmet on the head. She laughed and cursed, "What an idiot!"

Her eyes were filled with greed, and she said without disguising it, "Of course I'm going to pick up some money to spend."

Standing in the middle of the street, Shalltear turned her head to survey the area as if surveying her own territory, then asked Dim like a dog, "Which family do you think looks the luckiest?"

Dim nodded and bowed quickly, pointing to one of the houses and saying, "To answer your question, Boss, this one looks nice. Just look at the flowers growing outside, and you'll know this family is quite wealthy. After all, only those who have enough food and clothing would have the leisure to tinker with things that have no practical use other than viewing them."

Having been a thug in the working class for so long, she naturally knew how to judge which families were richer. Not to mention, her original profession was begging. If she hadn't known how to target the kind-hearted and generous wealthy, she would have starved to death on the streets long ago.

Shalltear thought this made sense, so she stepped forward without hesitation. Without a word, she fiercely kicked the door twice and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Open the door, you Kori army!"

However, the door did not open immediately as they wished. A gentle voice came from inside the house and asked, "Who are you? My wife is not at home. Please come back later."

Even without listening carefully, one could detect the slight tremor in the speaker's voice. Clearly, the people in the room had been frightened by this sudden and brutal act.

But Shalltear didn't care whether you were scared or not. When she saw that the person inside was reluctant to open the door, her anger instantly erupted.

"Damn it!" She cursed viciously, lowered her head and spat, then quickly took out a pistol from her body, raised her hand and shot the door lock.

There was a loud "bang" and the door lock was instantly shattered into pieces, with parts flying everywhere. Then Shalltear raised her foot and kicked the door hard, and it opened.

I don't know if it was because she used too much force, but when Shalltear kicked the door, it broke immediately, and only half of it was left hanging on the door frame, dangling precariously.

She lowered her head and spat, then took out her pistol and broke the door lock, then kicked the door open. After a "bang", the door was hanging there half-broken.

The man who was originally standing by the door and was about to look through the peephole to see what was going on was frightened by this sudden change and stepped back repeatedly. He staggered and almost fell to the ground, looking very embarrassed.

"Bah, you really have to make me serious, right? If I don't give you a few bullets, you really don't know how to listen to others, right?" As soon as she came in, Shalltear started cursing preemptively.

Then she came up and said something that made Dim's heart rise to his throat.

Shalltear loudly asked the strange man, "Are you ELO?"

Even if he didn't see Dim's covert shaking of his head, the man knew very well in his heart that if he admitted now that he was ELO, it would be no different from seeking his own death!

He quickly denied it, "No, please believe me! My family are ordinary civilians. How could we possibly have anything to do with ELO? We have always firmly supported the City Lord."

"Then why didn't you open the door just now?" After getting the man's answer, Shalltear's expression eased a little, but she continued to ask.

"I...I was just too scared..." the man said in a pleading tone, "Please forgive me! I really didn't mean it!"

Dim carefully and secretly observed Shalltear's expression. She seemed to be much more nervous than the man begging for mercy on the ground.

After all, it was Dim who single-handedly pointed out this family. If they were just robbed, Dim could still console herself with the fact that at least they were still alive. But if they were all dead, she would truly be unable to sleep at night.

Shalltear even leaned forward slightly, just to better hear the pleas for mercy.

She watched with interest the man in front of her begging desperately, and the happy smile on the corner of her mouth seemed to mean that she would spare the poor guy.

But in the next second, "Bang, bang, bang!"

Shalltear mercilessly emptied the magazine into the poor, defenseless man.

"How could you?!" Dim was stunned. She couldn't believe what she was seeing. Anger instantly overwhelmed her reason, and she subconsciously reached out and grabbed the clothes on Shalltear's chest.

She was a head shorter than the woman, but that didn't stop Dim from venting her anger. "He's a civilian! What the hell did you do!"

Shalltear didn't care. She easily pinched Dim's arm. A sharp pain instantly spread throughout Dim's body, causing her to involuntarily let go of his hand.

Despite the unbearable pain, Dim still stared stubbornly with his eyes and cursed.

Shalltear was incredibly strong. She grabbed Dim's neck with one hand and lifted him up alive.

Dim was almost out of breath and could only stand on tiptoe to ensure that she would not fall down. Her hands were pulling around randomly.

Shalltear watched Dim struggle in her grasp with an expressionless face. She spoke word by word, "They are ELO. They are not human, but beasts. Killing beasts does not require a reason."

"They... aren't..." Dim clutched Shalltear's palms tightly with both hands. Due to lack of oxygen, her face turned pale and her words became stuttering, but she still refuted Shalltear's words with difficulty.

"If I say they are, then they are."

The sound of breaking into the house had already alarmed the children in the house. The timid child hid under the table with his fingers in his mouth, his sapphire eyes staring at this side.

She was too young to understand what "death" meant, nor did she understand why there were so many loud noises in the house.

She just looked timidly at the group of strangers who broke into her home, then she mustered up the courage to stagger towards her father who had fallen to the ground, and gently pushed her father's arm which was still warm.

But the other person did not smile, pick him up and throw him high like before. He didn't even smile or touch him. He just lay there quietly, motionless.

The young child couldn't help but pout and burst into tears, waiting for her parents to come and comfort her.

The piercing cry was like a sharp sword, piercing the surrounding tranquility, which obviously disturbed Shalltear's interest.

She pulled back her hand that was pinching Dim's neck, raised her hand and shot the child.

However, the shot made no sound - it was empty.

Only then did Shalltear remember that she had already vented all her anger on the child's father.

Dim, who had just escaped death, fell to the ground, clutching her neck, her body shaking uncontrollably while gasping for air. Her throat was a terrifying purple hue, and saliva flowed from the corners of her mouth onto her face, but she didn't even have the energy to wipe it off.

Shalltear took the gun from her and shot the child who was still lying there unconscious, crying and pushing his father's body.

no no!

The crying stopped suddenly.

Dim's body was still unable to move on her own, but she was forced to witness this cruel scene, tears streaming from the corners of her red eyes.

But Shalltear had not let her go yet, and the gun that once belonged to Dim was now against Dim's head.

Dim's eyes flashed with Shalltear's devilishly hideous face. She heard the demon say, "Listen, if you weren't a member of my team, I would have shot you dead a long time ago."

Dim collapsed to the ground like a puppet that had lost its soul. At this moment, her body seemed to no longer belong to her, and she just lay there lifeless.

The other members of the group turned a blind eye and walked mercilessly over her body as they passed through the blood-stained entranceway.

When the last person stepped over Dim, he stopped and said condescendingly to Dim, "I told you before, don't mess with Shalltear. Be smart. Hurry up and catch up, or Shalltear will be angry again."

Hearing this, Dim slowly propped himself up and stood up with difficulty.

Although her body was still trembling slightly, she gritted her teeth, endured the pain, walked over, and watched those people randomly ransacking the room.

She didn't take anything, but just watched the group of robbers blatantly picking up the unwanted jewelry and enthusiastically helping the family open the safe door that had no key.

"It's real gold. Good boy, you really come from a rich family." Someone commented after taking a bite of the gold necklace.

Someone nearby chimed in, "What's that? Look at this, such a huge pearl! Wow, it's true that only a safe can hide such a treasure. It must be a family heirloom, right?"

At this moment, Dim keenly caught a strange sound coming from the closet. It sounded like a fist accidentally hitting the wooden board.

She did not say anything, but stood silently in front of the wardrobe, trying her best to prevent these people who were still immersed in excitement and joy from noticing that there might be someone hiding in the wardrobe.

Dim tried hard to recall the shoe cabinet in the entrance. There seemed to be a few pairs of elderly-style shoes on it, which meant that there might be another elderly person in the house.

"At least let me keep one," she prayed to the God of Machines.

But how could any robber miss anything he could grab?

At this moment, someone suddenly asked, "Could they have other hiding places? Have we searched everywhere?"

"I haven't looked in the wardrobe yet. But those tattered clothes are surely not worth much."

"Not necessarily. Maybe they saw through your stupidity and hid there on purpose."

"Who are you calling stupid?" The two of them were arguing with each other and were about to start a quarrel.

“Alright,” Shalltear stopped her, “Just take a look and you’ll know.”

Dim, standing at the door of the closet, naturally became the best candidate. Shalltear raised her chin slightly, pointed at Dim, and said calmly, "You, open it."

Finished!

Dim thought to herself that something was wrong. Her face turned pale and her steps became heavy.

She turned around reluctantly, stretched out her hands slowly, and slowly opened the cabinet door.

A beam of light suddenly appeared in the dark and narrow space, but the people hiding inside knew that this beam of light was deadly.

Inside was an old woman with her head lowered, holding her only grandson in her arms. She held the child tightly in her arms, trying to use her old body to protect her family for the last time.

Chapter 84: I'll take you to see the prison

What can I do? Dim asked himself this question many times.

When she was old enough to beg for food, the answer she got was: become a gangster and make ends meet.

After Awen abandoned her and chose to follow ELO, the answer she got was: be a servant of the powerful and tell Awen what the right path is.

After Yun Shuo took the initiative to invite her to join ELO, the answer she got was: I can't turn back.

But now, the question came back to her mind - what can I do?

The sunlight coming in from the window was blocked outside the wardrobe by Dim's body, but just the faint light leaking through the gap was enough for Dim to see the old woman's appearance clearly.

Dim recognized her - the old woman had given her a bite to eat many years ago.

To the old woman, Dim was just one of the many people she gave alms to, but to Dim, the old woman was the first person to whom she gave alms without contempt or purpose.

It seemed as if her charity was sincere, and she just hoped to do her best to help these beggars, a group that no one cared about, survive, rather than asking for rewards in the future.

Those days were the only happy days in Dim's childhood - he didn't have to worry about food, someone would occasionally come to teach him how to read, and Awen was still by his side.

Dim didn't know her full name or her address. The only thing he knew was her last name - Xina.

These beggars called her Grandma Xina.

How ridiculous! It's only been a short time and the situation has reversed so absurdly.
