Chapter 417 Mary

Normally, students wouldn't think about fighting the virus head-on.

It's obvious that Cheng Zhu isn't a normal student. After clearly learning from Alice that "viruses and humans are both data of this world," she understood why she was able to beat up the weirdos in the public kitchen and library.

If you can fight once, you can fight countless times.

As long as you act quickly enough, you can overwhelm your opponent with your presence. In addition, Cheng Zhu is currently disguised as a weak young girl and has the identity of a freshman, which gives the virus a little shock from the future planet.

The virus intended to give Cheng Zhu a scare, but it was immediately met with a brutal beating and, before it could even mount a proper counterattack, it exceeded its limits and dissolved into a puddle. If it had been given more time, it could have analyzed the data to figure out Cheng Zhu's attack patterns and replicated them on the spot. Unfortunately, there are no "ifs."

As for the dark figure outside the window, Cheng Zhu was so engrossed in the beating that he didn't notice it at all.

When Alice found out what Cheng Zhu had done, her eyes widened, and she pulled her in with a hint of surprise: "You're something else."

"I...I'm just scared..."

Cheng Zhu tried to find an explanation, saying, "At that time, I saw someone appear on the bed, and I was terrified. So I instinctively attacked, trying to drive it away..."

Whether Alice believed it or not, Cheng Zhu didn't care; she herself believed it anyway.

Not everyone reacts to being frightened by standing still or running away. Cheng Zhu was told from a young age that she might have some mental problems because when she was frightened, anger would quickly take over her brain, and she would act without mercy.

Although Chengzhu has managed to suppress this habit with reason as she grew up, it still doesn't affect her habit of hardening her fists when she's scared.

“It’s okay, I understand. You suburban immigrants have a tough life, so it’s normal to have some special habits.”

Alice quickly patted her head, trying to soothe her.

Cheng Zhu took a step back and waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "No need, no need. I've calmed down. I just didn't expect there to be a monster lying in ambush in my bedroom."

you also?

Thinking about the thing she had just crushed, Alice keenly sensed the problem.

If it weren't for her exceptionally special existence, she wouldn't have so readily destroyed the shadowy figure to avoid being seen by the Chosen One. But both she and Cheng Zhu had encountered it, and then there was Mary…

It seems the virus has evolved a bit more.

Alice's expression instantly turned serious. She told her part of the facts: "I also saw a dark figure outside the window just now, and you encountered a strange classmate you didn't recognize in the room, so I suspect that Mary might also be in danger. She hasn't made a sound, I'm afraid—" The drawn-out words left much to the imagination.

Just as Alice had guessed, Mary did indeed fall for it.

She felt dizzy and fell asleep after returning to her room. When she woke up, she felt tired and a little hungry.

Speaking of which, there's a refrigerator in the dorm, so there should be something to eat in it, right?

Mary rubbed her rumbling stomach, a slightly eerie smile spreading across her face, and muttered to herself, "Don't worry, you'll be full soon~"

As for the rules regarding the refrigerator, she had completely forgotten them.

A faint figure was clinging to Mary's back, slowly merging into her body, barely holding onto Mary's short hair, guiding her towards the kitchen downstairs.

I'm so hungry.

Mary's mind was filled with those two words.

Once you get to the kitchen, there's food to eat; the refrigerator is full of food, so you can eat to your heart's content.

Mary walked numbly to the refrigerator.

Angela, who usually reminded Mary, was nowhere to be seen, leaving Mary to walk to the refrigerator and open it.

Mary's eyes were immediately drawn to the refrigerator full of food: "So much... I want to eat it..." She reached out and grabbed the various foods inside, trying desperately to stuff them into her mouth.

"Now's the time! Go for it! Please!"

Suddenly, a yellow object flew straight toward Mary like a cannonball. Before Mary could put it in her mouth, she was hit on the left cheek by the object.

No way! Nobody can stop me from eating!

Mary quickly brushed the yellow, unidentified creature off her face, only to feel it grab her leg. Finally, the yellow-skinned rat tilted its head back and shouted, "Ball!"

Then, the electronic toy leaked electricity.

A current shot from the yellow-skinned mouse directly to Mary. Although the electricity wasn't strong, it was enough to numb Mary's body.

When Alice and Chengzhu rushed downstairs, they saw Mary being hugged by the legs of a yellow rat. Her hair was sticking up because of the electric shock, and her skin was already quite dark, so it was impossible to tell whether she had been burned by the electric shock.

Alice spotted the dark figure behind Mary immediately and patted Chengzhu on the shoulder: "Give her a punch in the face and see if she can be saved."

If there's no way to save them, they'll probably be too late.

Although Cheng Zhu was reluctant to lay a hand on a woman, he did it to save his roommate, so he took a few steps forward, grabbed Mary's collar, clenched his fists repeatedly, and finally chose a gentler approach. He roared, "Get off Mary, or I'll beat you to a pulp!"

Alice quickly threw away all the food in the refrigerator to avoid any accidents.

17. The refrigerators in the student dormitories will be unusable. Do not consume any food or drinks found in the refrigerators. If you find food or drinks growing in your dormitory refrigerator, please throw them in the trash can. The dormitory manager will clean them up.
