After Ghost Head's explanation, Brother Shi finally understood why Crooked Neck insisted on going back. Unlike Ghost Head, Bald Head, and Snapper, Crooked Neck had a family in the Dangerous Sanctuary City. This family was built amid the apocalypse and included his wife and young son, who was less than five years old.
Unlike Ghost Head and the others, who had always been in a "full stomach, no worries" survival mode, Crooked Neck carried emotional ties of his own. And the video that Brother Shi had just played on his phone made people worry about the future of the Dangerous Sanctuary City. The Second District Defensive Line was the last safeguard of the Sanctuary City. If it were breached by the zombie horde, the entire Dangerous Sanctuary City would be like prey in a tiger's jaws. Could anyone still believe the city was safe?
