"You!"
The man's pupils constricted as he looked at Spencer on Shawn's back, almost blurting out!
But before he could shout, Shawn casually threw Spencer to the ground, appearing in front of the man in the blink of an eye and slapping him unconscious.
At the same time, Spencer also fell to the ground, headfirst, making intimate contact with the grass.
Shawn knocked the man out, then smoothly caught his falling body and gently lowered him.
However, the more he looked at the man, the more familiar he seemed.
"Is this Pete?"
Alexandria: Pete
Shawn suddenly remembered his name.
Pete Anderson, Community doctor, abusive husband.
His wife, Jessie Anderson, is a Community teacher and they have two children.
As these pieces of information flashed through Shawn's mind, a figure stirred beside him, and Shawn looked up to see a child, not even as tall as he was when crouching, emerge from the back door.
The child was holding an apple, which looked quite fresh.
"Come here."
Shawn, unhurriedly, waved the child over.
The child hesitated, but after glancing at his father in Shawn's arms, he walked over.
Shawn took the apple from his arms and bit into it.
Under the child's almost tearful expression, Shawn finally began to coax him.
"Your name is Sam, right?"
The child's attention was caught, and with a snot bubble, he curiously asked, "How did you know?"
"I am a deity even more powerful than God, of course I know."
"I'm here to pick up your dad for something, you have to pretend you didn't see anything, otherwise Pete won't be able to come back."
"Do you want your father not to come back?"
Hearing Shawn's question, Sam thought seriously for a while, then nodded with certainty.
"You can take him."
Huh?
Shawn was stunned; this was truly filial piety that made one laugh.
However, given Pete's character, he probably wasn't well-liked, even by his own child.
Immediately, Shawn changed his approach.
"Then I'll take him away and not let him come back, on the condition that you don't tell anyone, not even your mother."
Sam stared at the apple in Shawn's arms and nodded.
Seeing this, Shawn smiled in satisfaction, put the bitten apple into his arms, picked up Pete, and prepared to signal Tallahassee to meet up with Daryl and the others.
But before Shawn could move, a fair-skinned blonde woman with dark circles under her eyes emerged from the back door behind Sam.
Alexandria: Jessie
She looked somewhat pitiful, and when she saw Shawn carrying Pete on his back, she was clearly surprised.
However, this time Shawn was equally surprised looking at her, not expecting Pete to have started abusing Jessie so early.
It seemed this wasn't a situation that only appeared after the apocalypse; at least, like Carol back then, there were domestic abuse issues before the apocalypse.
But then, in her stunned moment, Shawn let out a long sigh.
"So, a family should be neat and tidy, right?"
Shawn repeated his trick, throwing Pete heavily to the ground; his head hit the grass with a dull thud like a watermelon.
Shawn bypassed Sam, grabbed Jessie's arm, and covered her mouth and nose from behind.
"You're dreaming, you're dreaming, when you wake up, everything will be back to normal."
With that, Shawn pressed her behind the neck, and Jessie's body went limp as she fainted.
Jessie fell into Shawn's arms, her face still showing a trace of uncollected terror.
Perhaps it was because of Shawn's sudden appearance, or because of Shawn's earlier remark, 'everything will be back to normal when you wake up.'
Perhaps she, like Sam, wished that Pete, the abusive husband, would vanish without a trace.
With Jessie on his left shoulder and Pete on his right, Shawn was about to leave.
But he suddenly remembered something and turned to look at Sam.
"Don't tell anyone, or I'll let your dad come back and keep your mom!"
Shawn's words scared Sam pale, and he nodded repeatedly.
He gave Tallahassee a look, and the two continued to climb over the backyards.
Avoiding areas where people were resting in their backyards, Shawn and Tallahassee successfully reached the other high wall of Alexandria.
Daryl and Merle were already waiting there, each carrying a person on their backs.
One had silver-white hair, and the other wore black-rimmed glasses.
Shawn, like a wild man, ran towards them, carrying two people, panting.
At a glance, good heavens, no wonder the Dixon Brothers were so reliable.
One of the two was Reggie, the husband of the leader, Diana.
The other woman wore a dark blue cotton jacket and was a bit plump; this was Denise Cloyd, Alexandria's future main doctor.
Neither of them was knocked out, but Daryl had tied them up tightly, preventing them from making a sound.
"How did you tie her up?"
Shawn was a little curious; at this time, Denise was not a transparent person in the Community, but she shouldn't have been a particularly important character either.
As soon as Shawn mentioned Denise, Merle's face, already red from her weight, became even redder.
"Don't even ask."
"We found out this man was the Community leader's husband, so we quickly found an opportunity to package him up."
"But just as we were about to leave, who would have thought we'd run into this woman bringing him medicine."
"Daryl said to go all out, so we just took both of them."
Merle looked at his brother with some discomfort, his face filled with pain.
"Who knew this woman was so heavy, carrying her here almost killed me."
"How about… you and Tallahassee switch?"
Shawn asked tentatively.
Seeing Shawn mention his name, Tallahassee straightened up, held Spencer with one hand, and made a single-arm bodybuilding pose towards Merle.
What the hell?!
Merle's eyes widened, and his bent waist immediately straightened.
"I'm afraid I'd directly crush his scrawny body, it's better if I do it myself."
Well, now Merle wasn't complaining about being tired anymore.
You can lose anything, but you can't lose face, right?
Shawn gave him an annoyed glare and looked at Daryl.
"We haven't found the Community leader's location here, how about your side?"
"We found her office, but she wasn't there when we went in."
Daryl adjusted Reggie on his back.
It seemed that upon hearing Shawn and the others discussing his wife, Reggie began to shake his body desperately, making 'woo woo' sounds.
"Don't mind him, if we're discovered, we'll start a massacre and kill everyone."
Shawn deliberately let Reggie hear.
Sure enough, the next second, Reggie quieted down a lot.
After discussing with Daryl, the group, carrying or backing the people, headed towards Diana's office.
They carefully sneaked into the house, pushed open the office door, but Diana was still not there.
Shawn stacked the people under the office desk, gave Daryl and the others a look, and they all hid in inconspicuous positions by the door.
As for Shawn, he sat down in the chair behind the office desk.
He propped his legs on the desk, leisurely poured a cup of coffee from the pot on the table, and waited for Diana to appear.
