Man at the top of the food chain

Li Jing, a college student from Tianjing...

Wang Lina, 24 years old, came to Feicui City from her hometown Quancheng to work...

Bai Tingting, came to southern Xinjiang with her boyfriend to travel...

One name after another and some origins were written down by their owners, either with despair or with hope. Li Anping could feel their helplessness from those bloody words.

Hei didn't speak. He could feel that since Li Anping entered the building, a violent emotion had been spreading in his heart. It could explode at any time.

"Hei... Do you have a way to read their memories when absorbing souls..."

"Yes, you can." Hei replied: "But your current ability level is too low. If you want to be able to read memories, you have to upgrade your ability. In short, you have to eat more people."

"Don't worry, I have a lot of people to eat this time..." Li Anping clenched his fists tightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. He had never wanted to kill people as much as he did at this moment.

Next, Li Anping searched all the remaining rooms. But apart from seeing more names, he still got nothing, but the anger in his heart was getting hotter and hotter.

Finally, he walked to the last room on the fifth floor. The carefully decorated door seemed to indicate the difference of this room. Li Anping pushed open the door and found that this dormitory was twice the size of those downstairs, with a separate bathroom, TV, and a dining table. In particular, this room also had a window, and he could see the streets and buildings outside.

Although it was still simple, it was luxurious compared to the "cages" below. Li Anping walked around the room and suddenly looked at the big bed in the middle of the house. There was a layer of gauze on the bed, and a vague human figure could be seen hiding underneath.

Li Anping squinted his eyes and walked towards the big bed, and casually lifted the gauze. He didn't hear any heartbeat or breathing. Before pulling the gauze, he was sure that there was another body on the bed.

As he expected, under the lifted gauze, a female corpse was lying on the bed. But she was much better preserved than the one downstairs. Her skin still looked tender and white, and her slender thighs and arms showed that she had been malnourished for a long time.

Li Anping turned the female corpse over and found that there were large black spots on her chest, kiss marks on her breasts were clearly visible, and white liquid was flowing out of her lower body. It was obvious that she was violated before death.

Li Anping lifted the woman's waterfall-like blonde hair and revealed a beautiful face. The three-dimensional cheeks with the characteristics of the Western Continent were mixed with the unique roundness of the Daxia people. She seemed to be a mixed-race beauty.

Obviously, this was a mixed-race beauty who was identified as a high-quality product by the human traffickers. But for some reason, the Lone Wolf's men suddenly evacuated and raped and killed the woman before leaving.

"Why did they evacuate suddenly? They raped and killed you before leaving." Li Anping looked at the female corpse on the bed and muttered to himself.

Hei asked, "Not necessarily. Is it possible that someone came to attack here and raped and killed the woman?"

"But there are no signs of resistance. There are also remnants of gunpowder weapons." Li Anping said as he carefully searched the woman's body in the hope of finding some clues.

But still nothing was found. After all, he was not a professional, he could not dissect corpses, he did not have professional instruments, and he did not have his own intelligence network, and he had almost no reasoning and investigation ability.

It was expected that he could not get any useful clues. Li Anping took a last look at the female corpse, reached out to close her eyes, and said coldly: "Don't worry, I will let all the murderers be buried with you."

After saying this, Li Anping did not stay any longer, but jumped directly from the fifth-floor window.

With a bang, the whole person shook slightly, and he had landed on his feet. His solid legs did not even feel a little sore. He looked at the fire in the distance, where several homeless people were looking in his direction.

However, the sky was gray, and Li Anping was falling very fast, so he didn't think the homeless people could see anything. But he still walked towards the homeless people.

He wanted to ask some information from these homeless people.

But unfortunately, after paying a few hundred dollars and knocking out a homeless person who wanted to rob him, Li Anping didn't get the information he wanted.

These homeless people only knew that the people in the building began to evacuate last night, and several container trucks drove over and emptied all the things in the building. As for why those people moved and where they moved to, these homeless people knew nothing.

Li Anping asked carefully and found that they knew nothing about human trafficking, imprisonment, and abuse in the building. Obviously, the men of the lone wolf usually do a good job of keeping secrets here.

Sighing, Li Anping looked at the convenience store and grocery store in the distance. As the small store closest to the building, it may be often visited by the men of the lone wolf, and maybe some information can be found.

Thinking of this, Li Anping started to walk towards the convenience store.

…

…

After passing through the door of the convenience store, a ding-dong sound rang out. Li Anping looked at the cash register. A middle-aged man with black-framed glasses and a sturdy physique put down the newspaper and nodded at him.

“What do you want to buy? I’ll tell you where it is.”

"No, I'll just take a look." Li Anping answered casually and started to walk around the supermarket. While he was walking around, he tried to get close to the boss, but the middle-aged man obviously didn't have much to talk about, and Li Anping was not a master of rhetoric, so the two chatted in a lukewarm manner.

"Boss, do you know what the floors around here are for? It seems that no one is coming in or out."

The middle-aged man put down the newspaper again, looked at Li Anping warily, and then said, "Why are you asking these questions?"

"Nothing, I'm just asking casually." Li Anping pretended to be indifferent and replied, "I just moved here and saw several abandoned buildings nearby that no one was using. I felt curious."

The middle-aged man snorted coldly and said, "If you want to survive in Emerald City, the first thing to remember is to stay out of other people's business."

Li Anping shrugged and chatted with the man again, but no matter how he tried to insinuate himself, he couldn't get anything out of the boss's mouth.

But judging from the man's previous behavior, he obviously knew something about the lone wolf's base.

The two chatted for a few more words, and just as Li Anping was considering whether to use violence, there was a clanging sound at the door. Li Anping looked over and found that three gangsters walked in.

The three people started to search wildly as soon as they came in, especially some snacks and fruits, which they ate directly without paying. The shelves were also turned upside down.

Finally, two of them filled their backpacks, and the other one, who had dyed blond hair, walked in front of them, holding a can of milk in his hand, put it on the cash register, and shouted to the boss: "Check out."

At this time, the convenience store owner put down the newspaper, as if he knew nothing about the previous behavior of the three gangsters. He smiled at the yellow-haired man, picked up the milk, and said with a forced smile: "A total of two dollars and three cents, thank you for your patronage."

"No need to change." The yellow-haired man threw five dollars on the cashier counter. Just as he was about to leave, he turned his head and said: "By the way, why is the fruit-flavored milk gone? That tastes better. You should buy some more."

"Okay... okay... okay." The boss nodded hurriedly and said: "I'll go buy some tomorrow. Fruit-flavored ones, right? I'll remember it."

The yellow-haired man nodded with satisfaction, and walked towards the door with his two younger brothers, only to find that the tall Li Anping blocked the door.

"I'm too lazy to say more to people like you." Li Anping glanced at the three people and said: "Put the things back, I can let you leave. Otherwise, I will break your arms."

"Boy, do you know who we are!"

"Bastard, beat him up!"

Li Anping was too lazy to listen to their nonsense, and went up directly, punched and kicked each of them, and knocked the three gangsters to the ground, groaning constantly. The three of them didn't even have time to react before they felt a sharp pain. They were shocked and afraid of Li Anping.

The convenience store owner seemed stunned as well, looking at Li Anping and not knowing what to say.

"Get out of here." Li Anping pretended to kick the three hooligans on the ground, and the three hooligans immediately dodged like rolling gourds and crawled out the door.

"Leave the things behind." Li Anping said again, and the three of them didn't even care about their bags, threw them on the ground and ran away. Not a single harsh word was said.

"It seems that occasionally meddling in other people's business is not so bad." Li Anping smiled at the boss.

The boss was speechless. He walked to the door and took out the goods in the two backpacks one by one and put them back on the shelf. He said while sorting them out.

"I'm not as good as you, and I'm afraid of revenge from others. So I'll tell you what I can say. I'll tell you everything I can. If you ask me what I can't say, I won't tell you."

Li Anping nodded to show that he understood. The boss looked at him deeply, locked the door, and walked towards the counter.
