Jiang Shilong, convinced of his understanding of Ye Jianguo's psychology, overlooked the depth of a father's love for his son.
Ye Jianguo, though old-fashioned, remained astute. Observing Jiang Shilong approaching Ye Fan, he sensed the man's malevolent intentions. The apocalypse hadn't dampened Ye Jianguo's protective instincts; he couldn't allow Jiang Shilong to tarnish his son's reputation and future.
Setting aside differences with his son, Ye Jianguo cautiously moved his wife closer to Ye Fan. Regardless of Jiang Shilong's potential plans, he ensured they remained beyond his reach.
Ye Fan, aware of Jiang Shilong's ill intentions, felt a surge of satisfaction. His father's permission to act as he pleased signaled the imminent exposure of Jiang Shilong's deceit.
Unfamiliar with Jiang Shilong's specific actions, Ye Fan's intolerance for evil intentions prompted swift action. However, Jiang Shilong, anticipating retaliation, considered escape.
Jiang Shilong's plan to exploit survivors for labor and to attract zombies unraveled in the face of the approaching military. Fearful of exposure, he planned a hasty escape, relying on his unique speed ability.
As Ye Jianguo retreated among the soldiers, Jiang Shilong sensed impending danger. His plan to escape Chengguan Town and head to Daqingshan Prison Base hinged on leaving before the army's intervention.
Utilizing motorcycles to attract zombies and sacrificing survivors to create a safe environment, Jiang Shilong aimed to control the resources in Chengguan Town. His malicious actions, while successful before, faced a reckoning with the arrival of the army.
Anticipating the imminent betrayal of the survivors, Jiang Shilong contemplated escape. He hoped to reach Daqingshan, where his elder brother Xing Hai had established a thriving survivor camp.
Despite the potential escape route, Jiang Shilong's immediate concern was evading Ye Fan's retaliation. As Ye Fan gave the order to act, Jiang Shilong made his move, intending to flee through the window.
The soldiers, recognizing the urgency, swiftly responded. Jiang Shilong's attempt to escape prompted a deadly confrontation. Soldiers, equipped with helmets and advanced weaponry, prevented most escape attempts. Those attempting to flee through the window were met with lethal force.
Jiang Shilong, agile and cunning, managed to evade initial gunfire. Escaping through the window, he swiftly navigated the chaos. However, his elation was short-lived as the two military dogs, unleashed by Ye Fan, pursued him.
Racing towards the Qixing River tributary, Jiang Shilong considered the water as a potential escape route. Convinced of his swimming abilities, he aimed to outmaneuver the pursuing military dogs.
In a desperate leap into the water, Jiang Shilong believed he had secured his freedom. Yet, a gunshot rang out, disrupting his triumphant thoughts. As he entered the water, a bullet found its mark, sealing his fate.
