Chapter 50

The dealer looked down at Han with fear in her eye. REACH? Whar was that? She never even heard about them before!

“I don’t know what that is! Please, I don’t know what that is!”

Han narrowed his eyes and plunged the knife deeper into her neck. She shook slightly before forcing herself to shut up by biting her lip till she drew blood. He twisted his mouth to one side. He couldn’t see any lie in her eye. It seemed she really didn’t know anything about REACH.

“Then tell me everything you know about the apocalypse. How did the zombies appear?”

The dealer shook her head and Han threatened her by pressing the dagger even deeper. She started to cry and finally opened her mouth.

“I don’t know!”

“You’re lying”

“No, I’m not!”

“Then why did you hesitate? You know something. Tell me right now, or do you want to know what your intestine looks like?”

Alright, maybe Han watched too many late-night horror movies in the past. This was becoming too much, even for him. She was openly begging and crying now at the combination of his bloodlust and sheer presence. The blood was now leaking all the way down to her chest and Han cursed himself when his little buddy actually twitched at the sight.

He wasn’t a sadist, right!? He couldn’t be a sadist! This was just for the sake of information!!

The dealer squeezed her eyes tight and grit her teeth and Han dragged her hair back and brought the knife closer to her neck. She quickly shook her head.

“Wait! Wait! I’ll talk!”

“Ah... Smart girl”

“There was a factory in City A. I don’t know who left the factory there but there was something inside that you would never believe me if I told you!”

Han narrowed his eyes. Was she telling the truth? It didn’t seem like she was lying. So does that mean the virus came all the way from City A this time? Why would REACH come all the way from there just to infect them? It didn’t make sense.

“Tell me. This thing, do you still have it?”

The dealer nodded.

“What does it do?”

“It.... It....”

The knife dug deeper.

The dealer shook her head while trying to take more steps back. Han shot to his feet and slammed her back into the wall.

“Answer me!!”

“It was the failed experiments!! The first group of experiments couldn’t handle the concentrated version and they transformers into some sort of monster!”

The dealer was now openly crying again and when Han let go of her she fell to the ground in pain.

‘hHmm...”

Han turned around sharply when he heard the girl Humm. He quickly moved towards her as she opened her eyes. Her eyes locked onto him in confusion for a moment before it widened and she began scrambling back in fear.

“No! No! Leave me alone!! Please, just leave me alone!! I don’t want to stay here anymore!! I want to go back home!!”

Han cautiously took a step back from her. She was delirious. From the marks in her skin, it was obvious she had been manhandled and probably even raped. Dammit... This was just becoming an even bigger mess.

“Hey... Hey calm down. I won’t hurt you.”

The girl moved further away from him but she stopped trashing and just stared at Han in fear. Han tried taking a step closer again but she flinched even more.

“I just want to help. I’ll take off the shackles,”

The girl was silent for a while before she slowly nodded. Han moved closer and grabbed the chain to loosen it. But just before he could he heard her scream in fright while staring at something behind him. Jesus Christ! What sort of stupid idiots existed in the underground!? Han turned around, caught the knife the dealer aimed at his back and then slapped her to the ground.

That should keep her knocked out for a few hours.

He turned back to the girl and continued what he was doing while she looked at him in awe. He managed to break the chains in her hands and then her legs before trying to get her to stand up. She couldn’t even shift her body, she was so weak. So Han carried her bridal style and propped her against the wall of the room. He was going to turn her around but she suddenly caught his hand.

“Who are you?”

“A friend,” Han smiled.

“What are you going to do with her?”

The girl pointed towards the unconscious dealer and Han eyes the woman with a cold gaze.

“Something you don’t want to see.”

“Can I watch?”

Han rose a brow at the girl. Did he just hear that right?

“I want to watch. Please let me watch”

Han hummed and nodded before he stood up.

The next few minutes were the most excruciatingly painful of the dealer’s life and Han made sure the girl didn’t miss a single second of it. Her screams didn’t get out of the soundproof room, so he didn’t have to worry about any guards coming in.. It was just him, the girl, and the screams.
