The morning sunlight fell on Qiao He's extremely pale face as she collapsed in a dilapidated house.
There's hardly anyone around here, so even if I die here, it shouldn't harm anyone else...
However, Qiao He thought to herself that the plague must have already spread among the population. After all, this disease was too dangerous, and once infected, there was only one way out: death.
How many people can truly endure it?
Qiao He chuckled, feeling that she herself might not be able to handle it.
My limbs feel weak and my whole body aches.
Qiao He didn't know how high her fever was; she only knew that she didn't even have the strength to stand up.
It's true, she didn't do anything wrong in her past life, so why did she encounter such a thing after being reborn? Is this her retribution...?
Qiao He slowly closed her eyes, her long, thick eyelashes trembling slightly like black butterflies.
There's no way to survive unless someone awakens an extremely powerful healing ability...
Unfortunately, the kittens did not awaken such a special ability.
The "Slack Off System" also looked serious, its tone as if to say, "Just hold on a little longer. If you really can't take it anymore, I'll help you block out the pain."
Qiao He lay there pondering. She asked the dormant system, "If I die, where will you go, you system?"
The dormant system whispered, "I am a string of code. If you die, I should go and find another host."
Qiao He's lips curled up slightly: "That's good. I thought... you would die too."
The dormant system paused slightly, "I wasn't a living thing to begin with, so how can I talk about death?"
Qiao He smiled but didn't say anything.
She closed her eyes, trying to sleep for a while to relieve the pain all over her body, but she failed because it was too painful. It felt like her very bones were aching, an omnipresent, indescribable pain.
Qiao He shudders at the thought of her internal organs gradually bleeding, then melting into blood, until only a horrible skin remains...
She just wanted to die right now.
It looks terrible.
She didn't want to die such a gruesome death.
The "Relax System" seemed to hear her thoughts and said helplessly, "Host, you don't need to be so pessimistic. Your current physique is different from that of ordinary humans. I mean, what if, what if you can pull through?"
Qiao He smiled wryly: "I don't think this kind of good luck will come my way..."
"If the pain becomes unbearable later, please block out the pain for me," Qiao He murmured softly.
She is very afraid of pain.
Whether in my past life or this one, I am terrified.
But most of the time, Qiao He could only pretend to be fearless, because only in this way could he be crazier and more reckless than others!
Only then could she survive in the cruel post-apocalyptic world.
Qiao He's eyes were red, and she curled up like a baby, cold sweat dripping down her face...
It's so painful...
Qiao He could almost feel the changes in her body; the feeling of being gradually overwhelmed was terrifying.
The "Slack Off System" remained silent for a long time. It had been monitoring Qiao He's physical condition, but the situation remained dire.
There's nothing we can do about the abandoned system; the system store doesn't have any effective medicines or vaccines.
Even if Qiao He has enough emotional points, she still can't buy it.
What's worse is that Qiao He has completely lost all emotional energy now, having saved Lin Qiao in the process.
The "give up" system was also helpless; it could only encourage Qiao He to persevere a little longer...
However, Qiao He had already fallen into a deep sleep and could not hear his voice at all.
As dawn broke, the pale light of day gradually faded.
Qiao He felt colder and colder all over her body!
It felt like being in an ice cellar; the cold made her shiver and her whole body tremble.
She was trapped in a terrifying nightmare in which she could do nothing but be bullied by people, by ghosts, and even by strange monsters. They all wanted to devour Qiao He, leaving not even her bones behind!
Qiao He struggled to wake up, but she failed.
Because she simply couldn't open her eyes, her consciousness seemed to be fading away, and she was no longer under her control.
Qiao He thought, if only I could be free from this pain, if only I could fall into eternal sleep...
The next second, a familiar mechanical voice suddenly rang in Qiao He's ears: "Qiao He! Wake up!"
"Wake up! There's danger!" The mechanical voice of the "Slacking Off System" spoke with such excitement and tension for the first time.
Qiao He felt a sense of novelty and suddenly opened her eyes. The nightmares that had been chasing her screamed and fled, and what landed on Qiao He's face was a dark figure.
Qiao He looked closely.
Ah, what a small world!
As expected, Qiao Yuan did not die, and Qiao Yimu, somehow survived.
At that moment, the two people appeared at the door, staring at Qiao He with tense expressions.
Qiao Yimu gritted his teeth and said, "How come I ran into this woman again!"
Qiao Yuan was terrified of Qiao He. She hid behind Qiao Yimu, trembling, and said, "It's...it's Qiao He! Brother, we mustn't go near her! This woman is too scary..."
Qiao Yimu narrowed his eyes and said in a cold voice, "Qiao He, what are you doing here? What are you up to?"
Qiao He ignored him and said in a leisurely tone, "What's it to you?"
"But you, Qiao Yimu, you're still alive. I saw you plunge a knife into your heart with my own eyes."
Qiao Yimu sneered and said smugly, "Have you forgotten that I'm a surgeon? Qiao He, and I'm also a superhuman!"
"I have awakened a medical superpower! I can cure any disease, especially in surgery!"
Qiao Yimu looked down at Qiao He and said with disdain, "You seem to be sick. What, you're no longer useful, so Bo Shiwu and your cat abandoned you?"
Qiao He scoffed, "Do you think everyone is like you? So driven by profit."
Qiao Yimu's eyes widened, his face turning pale with anger: "You...!"
"You're so stubborn! I bet you were abandoned because you were sick!" Qiao Yuan glared at her fiercely, no longer pretending to be weak and pitiful in front of Qiao Yimu, and directly hurled insults at her.
After all, they had a grudge against Qiao He, and Qiao Yuan was the weaker party in Qiao Yimu's eyes at this moment, so he would definitely stand on their side.
As for Qiao He, in the next life, no! The life after that! There is absolutely no way she can clear her name again.
Ha ha ha ha……
It's so delightful to see Qiao He in such a disheveled state.
Just as Qiao Yuan was about to approach Qiao He, she was pulled back by Qiao Yimu.
"Don't go over there, be careful what tricks she might be up to!" Qiao Yimu said warily.
Having been tricked by Qiao He before, Qiao Yimu was naturally very wary of her.
Qiao He glanced at them, speechless, and said, "If I were you, I would have come and killed me long ago. Seeing how sick I am, why don't you hurry up and do it?"
"Qiao Yimu, are you that afraid of me?" Qiao He said with a half-smile.
