Chapter 262:


    Flora took a step back, slightly frightened; she still didn''t know the person in front of her, so she needed to be careful. "Is what you said true?" She said in a low voice.


    Seeing the woman''s reaction, Eddie just raised his eyebrows. "Don''t worry, I''m not a bad person. I have been asked toe here to save you. Would you like to go with us?"


    Flora felt a little hesitant, "You said earlier that you were going to an orphanage, right? I don''t want to go there..."


    "Why?" Eddie asked curiously.


    "There are a lot of monsters in that ce; I''ve heard that there are monsters more terrifying than crazy cannibals roaming the streets." Flora felt even more frightened. Seeing ordinary zombies gave her goosebumps, especially monsters that were more terrifying than ordinary zombies.


    "Monster? Don''t worry; no matter what kind of monster it is, we''ll deal with it easily. I''m good at fighting, certainly smarter than your man." Eddy tapped his nose while smiling jokingly.


    For some reason, the strange man''s bravery shocked Flora, "I don''t have a lover. By the way, the orphanage is rumored to be a cursed ce; it is said that children there often disappear for no apparent reason. im that they''ve seen terrible monsters." Flora gulped, and she continued. "It''s just that the bureau chief named Brian has never received anywsuits; this is all bullshit!"


    "Is that so? No problem, I''ll keep that in mind." Eddie nodded, and he continued. "If you don''t want toe with us, then stay here. I''ll be back to pick you up after I finish my business there." Eddie suggested.


    "Thank you for your kindness." Flora thanked him with a sincere smile.


    "By the way, I want to ask you something. You look very careful while hiding inside the shop; I want to know what''s happening here. Is there someone trying to take advantage of the chaos that is happening in the City?" Eddie asked, frowning.


    Flora hesitated for a moment, looking left and right; she said in a hushed tone, "Yes, there are gangsters in this area. They often do bad things."


    "Not long ago, a Gang broke into a nearby shop by force. They killed the male shop owner and did bad things to the female owner. I was scared when I heard the news, so I hid inside my shop." Flora said. She is still scared. "When I heard your voice earlier, I thought you were one of those gangsters, so I was scared and didn''t want toe out." Flora apologized sincerely.


    "Now I understand. Prudence keeps you safe, a good decision. Keeping away from strangers is important, especially for a single woman like you." Eddie nodded, "But it looks like we''re having some problems at the moment." Eddie flexed his neck to the side, making a relieved *pop* sound. He looked at the elevator that had just opened; there were four or five gangsters who had juste out of the elevator.


    At first nce, Eddie and Flora knew they weren''t friendly people. Their body is full of tattoos; besides that, their appearance is slightly disheveled.


    Seeing those people approaching, Flora felt scared. "Th-it''s them! Let''s run; those are who caused trouble here before; we have to run. Otherwise, they will kill us!" Flora gripped Eddie''s arm and screamed in panic.


    "Are you afraid of them?" Eddie said with a funny expression. Facing those thugs, he has nothing to fear; Heck, he will kick their balls like a pro ser yer!


    "Come on quickly. Otherwise, they will chase us! We will get into trouble, and your woman will be their victim!" Flora said shakily; the fear she was feeling right now was genuine.


    "Don''t be afraid; no one will get hurt with me here," Eddie said calmly as he patted Flora on the shoulder.


    The leader of the bastards stepped forward, followed by his men behind him. They wielded guns, watermelon knives, and baseball bats while aiming the dangerous things straight at the arrogant man not far ahead. With amanding tone, the leader said arrogantly, "You, get away from those women. Otherwise, we will ughter you, hahaha!"


    "Mouthful;e on, I''ll crack your kidneys," Eddie said as he clicked his fingers. He was tired of that immoral bastard. It''s bastards like them who have no boundaries inmitting crimes.


    "Huh? Repeat it? I didn''t hear you." The thug leader said hysterically. "Kid, do you want to be a hero? I''m in a good mood today, get out of the way, and I won''t kill you." The thug frowned, then he looked at the woman he had been looking for from yesterday.


    "Flora, you bitch. You finally came out today. I won''t let you run!" The bastard leader said fiercely.


    "Carillo, I will never be with you, even if it means my death! You bastard killed my family; you will get your karma soon!" Flora said in an angry tone. Even if she felt afraid, her anger could not be hidden.


    "Keep acting strong; I will definitely satisfy you by force, haha!" Carilloughed viciously.


    "And you son of a bitch, I ordered you to get out of the way. Why are you still here? Want to die?" Carillo pulled the gun from his waist and aimed it at Eddie.


    "Have you ever heard the word karma?" Eddie...


    "Karma? Justice? Whoops, full of bullshit." Carillo spat, "I''ll show you what real justice is. You want justice? Then I will rape your women in front of your lifeless bodies just like I have done before, haha!"


    "Hahaha, show him, boss. We''ll rape them together!" Carillo''s menughed loudly. Only god knows what they all did to satisfy their lust.


    "You are dead!" Carillo smirked, then pulled the trigger.


    *Bang!* A loud gunshot rang out.


    A frightened Flora hid behind Eddie. Unknowingly she used Eddie as a shield.


    Eddie stood motionless, his face looking bored, but you could see the veins in his temples. The bullet that was fired seemed very slow in his eyes. Quickly, he stopped the bullet with his bare hands.


    *Grip!*


    Gripping his hand tightly, the whole gun bullet instantly turned into useless metal. Then Eddie dropped the bullet on the ground; when a metallic *Ding* sound was heard, Eddie''s figure rushed forward quickly.


    In less than a second, Eddie was right in front of Carillo. With a bang, he kicked just below the man''s navel.


    *Bang!*


    *Cracks!*


    The sound of the impact of a kick followed by the sound of a broken spine rang out. Carillo''s previously straight body instantly bent backward, his spine instantly fractured by the terrifying impact of the kick.


    "!!!"


    "No, you are already dead." Eddie mock.


    Before his death, Carillo''s eyes widened in shock.
