Early the next morning, when the family members of the victims who came to attend the trial to denounce Black Panther and those who came to watch the show arrived at the base's mission hall, they found that there was a new judge stand and a prosecution stand … There was also the giant cross that was specially made for the black panther, locking the immobile black panther firmly on top of it.

Yuan Hui had originally thought that this trial would end soon. After all, Black Panther's actions were visible to the public. After the prosecution filed their complaint, they could then summon a few witnesses to testify before the court and sentence Black Panther to death. He didn't expect that after the trial, there would be so many witnesses who would testify. He had listened to all eleven witnesses in the entire morning, and after that, there was a long line of registered families of the victims, while the reporters who were responsible for recording the trial were already suffering from a cramp in their hands …

Black Panther's crime had long been enough for him to die a dozen times, but after all, this was the first major case that Yuan Yingying and the last generation Supervising Team had organized in Tianjin. In order to have a far-reaching impact, Yuan Yingying did not stop the trial, and instead listened to all of the witnesses' testimony throughout the trial. However, the more they listened, the more alarmed they became. Not only were they, the police officers who had arrested a lot of criminals, shocked that a person was so cold-blooded and abnormal.

Until now, the world had changed. Humans were cold and numb, and people were used to seeing all kinds of deaths. They thought they were already immune to all kinds of tragedies. However, they were wrong. After hearing the testimonies of the three witnesses, many of them felt physically uncomfortable. They felt nauseous and left the stage prematurely. By the time the last witness of the morning had told him how the black panther had taken his wife's placenta in front of him, half of them had vomited. Because of this, Yuan Huiying had to adjourn the court for half an hour in advance and let the people clean up the area before continuing with the Black Panther case.

Gu Cheng was also present to listen in on the hearing, but his reaction wasn't as intense as theirs. Just because he had heard of the things that Black Panther did five years after the apocalypse in his previous life, any one of them was much more shocking than this. Just as he had always believed, in this apocalyptic world, people were crazier and scarier than zombies. Every time Gu Cheng heard or saw something like this, he would think that his bottom line towards a person had already been drawn low enough and would always find himself being too naive.

Thinking that the trial would last less than a day, he checked the iron chains that bound the black panther. They were very strong, and there was no way for him to escape. He left the mission hall and went to the meeting hall to find Liu Shi.

Liu Qingshu was also there, holding a map and key. He was about to hand it over to Liu Shi, but he was interrupted by him. He turned his head and looked at Gu Cheng in surprise.

"It's fine, they're on our side. "He's the one I mentioned to you earlier, the one who killed Black Panther and moved the granary. Let me introduce you, this is Gu Cheng, a special adviser to the special team, a high-level special ability user."

Liu Qingshu stared at Gu Cheng with unconcealable shock for a while longer. He was truly unable to imagine how a man like him, who looked no different from an ordinary person, could single-handedly settle the entire southern part of the city.

"As expected, the new generation surpasses the previous one …" "We are all getting old. Brother Liu, in the past, we even received a team award in the martial arts competition. Now, we can't even hold a gun anymore."

Liu Shi seemed to recall their international survival tournament in the Amazon. In the blink of an eye, it had been over 30 years. Looking at their old comrade, whose back was slightly hunched, they sighed. Indeed, time was like a knife in a pig slaughtering machine.

"I have kept this map and key long enough. "Old Tian and the others are all men. Even at death, they still haven't told Black Panther that I have everything. They died too miserably …" Liu Qingshu, who already had half a head of white hair, had red eyes. His wrinkled hands trembled as he removed the last Hidden Lightning from the Tianjin base and handed it over to Liu Shisui personally.

"The rest is up to you youngsters." Liu Qingshu sighed, turned around, and left the meeting room.

With the hidden danger in his heart cleared, Gu Cheng no longer had any more worries. He got Liu Shi to find a suitable storehouse and released all the grain from the southern district that was stored in the storeroom. With just his stock of goods, the twenty plus people busied themselves for the whole afternoon. Before the apocalypse, the warehouse was a thriving wholesale grain and oil market. Although the goods had already been emptied, it was very convenient for them to change to a few new locks.

After the granary had been set up, Gu Cheng returned to Ling Weiran's home in the shanty district. Tian Jingwan sat obediently on Ling Weiran's lap, her small hand holding onto a seaweed ball as she slowly nibbled at it. Seeing that Gu Cheng had returned, he hurriedly jumped down from Ling Weiran's body and hugged Gu Cheng's leg.

Ling Weiran looked at them with a smile. Wasn't this the real deal? This child was so cute that it made one's heart ache, but fortunately, she hugged onto a very thick thigh. She actually rather liked Tian Jingwan. In her heart, she had secretly thought that if Gu Cheng didn't bring her along, their family could still afford to raise such a little fellow if they worked even harder. However, since Gu Cheng wanted to bring her away, Ling Weiran naturally supported it with both hands. It would be better to live a better life with him, Tian Jingwan, even if he had to think with his toes.

"Mr. Gu, are you planning to leave?" Pondering for a while, Ling Weiran walked forward and asked.

"En, Wan Wan Wan, follow me, I'll keep the tent for you guys. Remember to tell your dad that thanks him for helping us so much."

Gu Cheng bent down and carried Tian Jingwan, pointed at the tent at the side, then turned and left.

Ye Zichen thought back to the first time he saw him, when his voice was cold without any warmth. Other than the woman he liked, he didn't care about anyone else at all. This time, when she met him again, her expression was much gentler. Just thinking about the woman who had changed him so much made him jealous.

Ling Weiran watched Gu Cheng's back until he disappeared into the distance before turning around and entering the tent with a melancholy expression on his face. With this tent, the three of them no longer had to squeeze together anymore. They didn't even have time to turn around. When Ling Weiran touched the thick duvet covering the food left behind by Gu Cheng, his eyes landed on a few boxes of food that Gu Cheng had left behind, and his eyes widened as tears rolled down his cheeks without any anticipation.

To him, she was just a passerby that he had casually helped out, right? But that's enough. Beautiful people and things sometimes don't all belong to us. What we need to do is to quietly appreciate the beauty of that moment and firmly engrave it in our memories.
