Ruthless Host and Her Little Darling Quick Transmigration

Chapter 260 Apocalypse 25

When the police notified him, Qi Ruiguang went to check the situation.

The scene was chaotic, and after a long explanation, it boiled down to one sentence: the victim couldn't be found, the perpetrator couldn't be found, the station was very busy, and further notice was pending.

The friend's parents cried their hearts out, but it was to no avail.

The police station was bustling with people, all seemingly too busy to pay attention to anything else.

It should be a busy time.

The outside world is becoming increasingly chaotic, and death, a word that usually sends chills down people's spines, has become commonplace. Apart from the victims' families, no one can empathize with it anymore.

It's a very minor point of interest, barely worth a second glance.

Qi Ruiguang had heard from others that many people had died in certain neighborhoods, and that someone in his own neighborhood had been attacked and mauled by wild animals. At the time, he felt some pity for them, sympathizing with their plight and feeling sorry for their families.

I sighed in my heart, "How pitiful."

The horrific scene at the time was too gruesome to bear.

Then you can turn around and discard it.

The fear is that if it occupies too much time, it will severely invade the brain and affect oneself.

But what do we see now? A tiny chip, devoid of life itself, yet representing a person who has passed away.

There were no pale faces, no decay or blood, yet it struck right at the heart.

Perhaps it was just superficial before because we didn't care.

Qi Ruiguang felt depressed and left the police station like a lost soul.

The thought that my childhood friend, who used to always pester me and we've been playing around since we were little, is no longer here feels so unreal.

The world is vast, yet that person can no longer be found.

Never before have I so deeply realized the horror of death.

My heart feels empty.

"The cold sky, with you by my side, makes me feel at ease..."

The sweet ringtone of the telephone interrupted his absent-minded state. Qi Ruiguang blankly took out his phone from his pocket, and seeing the contact number finally brought him back to reality from his dazed state.

"Hey, I'm planning to go out for a bit. Have you sorted things out? Want to come along?" The owner of the voice was as calm as ever, as if nothing could possibly catch her attention.

"I..." Qi Ruiguang had a lot to say, but was suddenly interrupted.

"Don't rush to agree. I'm planning to go to a coastal city in the south. It's quite dangerous there, and I can't guarantee I can protect you all the time."

Mu Lingqi was somewhat worried.

Living in a world where it seems that nowhere is absolutely safe.

It's just that the south is more dangerous.

A riot broke out in Yajingwan, and in broad daylight, scenes of cannibalism, which are usually only seen in movies, were played out on the streets.

Such a scene is enough to cause panic.

News was blocked, the city was placed under martial law, and the videos that had previously leaked were only used for movie promotion and then all disappeared.

Other countries aren't much better off.

According to Mulingxi's investigation, countries in hot regions have almost all become extinct, and all have turned into cannibalistic monsters, no different from the zombies in movies.

Although no news has come out, everyone remains anxious.

Because compared to known disasters, the fear of the unknown is more terrifying.

Without any news, everyone could only rely on guesswork, comforting and deceiving themselves while protecting themselves through inference and behavior.

People at this time are often already mentally stressed.

On the surface, everything appears normal, no different from usual. However, you mustn't see even the smallest flame, for a tiny flame could reveal the magnificent spectacle of the world's destruction.

"Ou Weiyang is dead."

Mulingqi was considering the feasibility of relocating people to Antarctica when he suddenly heard this news.

I was a little confused and thought I was hallucinating.

"what did you just say?"

Who died?

The person on the other end of the phone sounded quite upset.

"Ou Weiyang".

“Ou Weiyang is dead. I have no idea how he died. He was perfectly healthy, and it's only been a few days since I last saw him. I still have this unreal feeling that if I call him, he'll come running to me. We were such good brothers for so many years, we grew up together. When my family was destroyed, he was still so happy. I was so happy that I wanted to sew his mouth shut, to make him lose everything like me. But how could it all happen so suddenly…”

"He's my only friend..."

"He was such a good person..." A sobbing voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Who! Who would have the heart to kill him?" After an unknown amount of time, Qi Ruiguang's slightly hoarse voice, filled with a cold glint, pierced through his body, aiming to wound every suspect, no longer displaying his usual sunny and shy demeanor.

Those little moments, the joys and the arguments, the fragments that shattered, seemed to tear him apart as well.

Qi Ruiguang stared at one spot.

Passersby instinctively stopped in their tracks, then turned a corner and kept their distance from the madman.

Cherishing life and staying away from accidents is the best way to protect yourself.

Qi Ruiguang suddenly saw an unexpected person.

He looked dazed for a moment, then staggered to his feet.

With his hands and feet ice-cold and his limbs stiff, Qi Ruiguang almost banged his head on the ground.

To see if it was really that person, Qi Ruiguang ignored his stiff body and quickly chased after him.

Through the glass of the coffee shop, Qi Ruiguang saw that all-too-familiar outfit and that all-too-familiar person.

Ou Weiyang's girlfriend is Liao Huanhuan.

The person who was once head over heels in love with his best friend is now sitting in a coffee shop with someone else, enjoying an afternoon.

Qi Ruiguang's eyes were bloodshot, and disregarding his disheveled appearance, he crossed the road and followed them into the coffee shop.

There weren't many customers in the store; including the two who just came in, there were only four people.

They were always in pairs, all lovey-dovey and cuddly, which was quite an eyesore.

"Liao Huanhuan! Ou Weiyang just passed away, and you're already with someone else?"

The shop was very quiet.

Qi Ruiguang's words, full of reproach, sounded more like he was catching adulterers. Liao Huanhuan dropped her coffee spoon into the coffee, which splashed and jumped all over her clothes.

Another couple twisted their heads and craned their necks to look in this direction.

Liao Huanhuan's guilty gaze darted away, and she unconsciously raised her voice, making it shrill.

"Why are you here?"

"It really is you! Liao Huanhuan."

They were gritting their teeth, it looked more like they were catching someone in the act of adultery.

The couple next to them stared even more intently.

"Fight, fight!"

"Even after all this, you still can't bring yourself to do it? This guy is no good."

Liao Huanhuan felt extremely uncomfortable after what was said, and the expression on her face was both crying and laughing, which was very unpleasant.

Qi Ruiguang ignored how hurtful his words were and looked at the other man in the seat.

"Such a promiscuous woman, with no moral bottom line. My brother just died a few days ago, and she's already hooked up with you... My brother's seven-day mourning period hasn't even passed yet, has it? You dare to be with her?"

These words carried an eerie, underworld-like aura, sending chills down one's spine.

The man, a white-collar worker, couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine upon hearing this, completely dispelling his previous romantic notions.

"Don't get me wrong, we have nothing to do with each other."

It's not worth getting into trouble for a woman you just met.

The man waved his hand and left without paying the bill.

The fish I just caught has run away like a duck.

Liao Huanhuan's eyes turned red with anger.

Regardless of whether he felt guilty or not, he glared with eyes wide open, his resentful gaze seeming as if he wanted to devour someone.

What they said was even more self-righteous.

"I can be with whomever I want. Even married couples can get divorced, let alone us who are just dating. So what if he's dead? Do you expect me to be buried with him? Was he an emperor or a member of the royal family? In ancient times, people could even take over someone else's assets. Do you want to take over?"

These words are incredibly offensive and show absolutely no respect for the deceased.
