Shi Xuan was unwilling to say more, and Ren Zhong didn't press further. He simply changed the subject, saying, "Mr. Shi, why did you kill the Mayor?"
Shi Xuan hesitated slightly before he began speaking, recounting the story in detail.
Back then, his town, though not as large as Chromium Carbon Town, was home to nearly eighty thousand people and was quite prosperous.
But everything was destroyed by a Ruined Beast frenzy one evening.
At that time, the Mayor did not organize any effective resistance. Seeing the dire situation, his immediate decision was to join forces with the Resource Recycling Company to evacuate the Citizens.
This decision was understandable.
But the Mayor demanded that all members of the Guard accompany the evacuation.
There was nothing wrong with that either.
The problem lay with Shi Xuan himself.
He was a native Scavenger who grew up in the town.
