Ruthless Host and Her Little Darling Quick Transmigration

Chapter 241 Apocalypse 6

When Jiang Mengli and the boy found the old lady, she was still sitting on the ground, just like when they first met.

The old woman now looked dazed and kept muttering that there was a monster.

There was no one else around the old lady except for the red apples scattered all over the ground.

Where is that girl? Where did she go?

Jiang Mengli kept asking, but got no answer. The old woman just kept talking nonsense, shouting "monster, monster."

The next time I saw the old lady was in the news, where it was reported that she had been killed by a wild animal.

But what kind of wild beast could run into the city and wreak havoc, tearing an old woman to pieces?

The outside environment has become even more chaotic, with danger seemingly lurking everywhere. Yesterday, my neighbor's little girl suddenly disappeared. When she was found, her entire body was covered in bite marks, lying in the community garden. Her wounds were extremely similar to those of the elderly woman in the news, as if they were the work of the same wild animal.

Jiang Mengli was kept at home by her mother and not allowed to get involved in this matter.

On her way to school, Jiang Mengli always felt like she was being watched. Even after arriving at school, this feeling didn't stop.

At first, she wasn't afraid, thinking that nothing bad could happen in broad daylight. She even boldly turned her head to find the source of the gaze, but in the bustling crowd, everyone seemed suspicious, yet everyone seemed perfectly normal.

Gradually, Jiang Mengli also realized that she was sick, and she would often stare blankly at the necks of the students in front of her.

He was a handsome male student whose neck shone white in the sunlight, with faint veins pulsating beneath his skin.

Jiang Mengli suddenly felt hungry and suddenly wanted to taste what that white, shiny neck tasted like.

Jiang Mengli became increasingly obsessed with her male classmates' bodies, to the point of being unable to control herself.

She will do many things that were previously incomprehensible.

He would collect things the other person had used, sniffing them intensely like an addict. He would become extremely angry if the other person talked to someone else, wishing he could tear that person apart on the spot. He would secretly follow that person after school, obsessively like a stalker. He even wished he could swallow that person whole, becoming one with them.

When she was on the verge of madness, Jiang Mengli would pinch her thigh hard. Only by pinching her thigh until it was bruised and purple could she temporarily suppress these crazy thoughts.

Jiang Mengli realized she was truly ill and needed to see a doctor. Every night she made up her mind, and the next day her body would uncontrollably rush her to school.

Jiang Mengli thought, he's still waiting for her at school, she has to go see him. He's so handsome, the other classmates will definitely surround him again. They'll ask him questions, deliberately get close to him, chat and laugh.

Jiang Mengli's eyes reddened, and she felt an intense, agonizing pain.

Her reason seemed to be out of control, and she could only think of that person.

One day, her wish finally came true.

They finally became one, and no one could separate them anymore.

The satisfaction was only temporary. Ever since that person died, the world in Jiang Mengli's eyes had changed color.

Jiang Mengli stared at the people on the street, trying to find an acquaintance to witness their past. But no matter how hard she searched, none of these hateful, twisted creatures were hers. She began to feel lost, tearing each creature she encountered to shreds. But tearing them to shreds was useless; there was nothing left, not even the slightest trace of the past.

……

After leaving the clingy old lady, Qin Baobao found a five-star hotel to stay in.

The hotel service was very attentive; they even provided computers.

Qin Baobao got a general idea.

The government hasn't offered a direct explanation; the only two reports available are about numerous animal attacks on people. Aside from that, there are various rumors, and the released videos and photos lack credibility. They seem to be sensationalist attempts to attract attention. However, it's obvious that the situation in the south is already very volatile. Within six months, the country will be in chaos.

In tropical regions abroad, cannibalism has been reported. Recent online materials depict beings that can no longer be considered human.

His skin was rotting and decaying, and he moved unsteadily. His eye sockets were prominent and bloodshot, and his gaze was filled with only two words—hunger.

This beast-like behavior immediately brings to mind zombies in movies.

Some countries used this as an opportunity to criticize the act, claiming it was a divine curse and that these people deserved their punishment. Some even believed these claims and jumped from rooftops, hoping to find refuge in God's embrace.

Life has many facets, too numerous to mention.

According to Qin Baobao's extensive investigations, this phenomenon has occurred to varying degrees in other countries and regions, except for extremely cold regions.

First, animals attack humans because animals act on instinct, without the constraints of morality and law, and do whatever they please.

Then humans started targeting strangers. From this perspective, humans at this stage still followed the principle of closeness and distance, and possessed emotions and thoughts.

After that, the infected humans were no different from wild beasts, biting anyone they saw, moving slowly, and not thinking clearly; they were no different from a pile of walking carrion.

The question remains: where did this global pandemic come from?

Qin Baobao has also read several post-apocalyptic novels.

It's nothing more than a meteorite from outer space, humanity reaping what it sowed, a virus leak during research, and alien invasion.

The slow-moving, mindless, neither-human-nor-ghost-like creature was clearly not an alien parasite. Since it could find this place from outer space, it couldn't possibly be a creature devoid of thought.

There is not a single piece of information about extraterrestrial meteorites online.

Excluding these two points, all that's left is human intervention.

Qin Baobao closed her laptop, lay back on the bed, and sighed deeply.

That's incredibly reckless.

They just love to mess around with things that are perfectly fine.

Now how to do?

I'm not good at this either.

Let's not rush, let's observe further.

Qin Baobao was feeling upset when the doorbell rang.

"Madam, your dinner is here. Please enjoy." The waiter pushed the food cart into the room, subtly scanning the space. The bathroom door was closed, and the balcony curtains were wide open. Apart from the young woman in front of him, there was no one else in the room.

Qin Baobao had already noticed the other person's gaze. While the waiter was observing the room, Qin Baobao was also carefully scrutinizing him.

The man was in his early twenties, with a decent appearance, but his skin was somewhat ashen, as if he were suffering from some serious illness. His fingernails, which were used to carry the tray, were dark, and there were a few faint blood vessels in his eyes, though they were not very noticeable.

Qin Baobao decided to secretly follow this person and observe him.

When the waiter left, Qin Baobao placed a tracking talisman on him.

After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, they were surprised to find that the same person was there to clean up the mess, though he carried a faint smell of blood.

Qin Baobao sat down beside him and carefully examined him from head to toe. There seemed to be some kind of stain on the dark black trousers, and even more stains on the black leather shoes. Red liquid was clearly seeping from the folded cuffs, like thin strands of bandage.

"Miss, are you staying alone tonight?"

"I didn't mean anything by it, it's just that it's not safe outside right now, especially for a beautiful lady like you."

Qin Baobao nodded, as if she completely agreed.

"You mean... your hotel isn't safe?"
