Shen Jing entered An Qi's home.
Inside the luxuriously decorated house, a generator worth hundreds of thousands of dollars was surprisingly found in a corner.
Based on the amount of electricity stored in this generator, it should be able to power air conditioners and heaters.
Strangely, Angie didn't turn it on, and the room is now like a giant icebox!
The perceived temperature is colder than the outside temperature of -50 degrees Celsius.
Shen Jing put on a down jacket, but still felt cold.
So she didn't want to stay any longer and asked first, "How much do you want?"
Anqi still handed Shen Jing a glass of warm water and said in a low voice, "You're making fun of me too, aren't you?"
Shen Jing asked, puzzled, "Hmm?"
This is going to be a long story in a short time.
"After Lao Qu died, they changed their tune!" Anqi said emotionally. "They used to rely on Lao Qu to take care of them!"
"So?" Shen Jing's eyes remained calm.
Not much different from when she first met her, Anqi chuckled, "You want jade, right? I may not have much else, but I certainly don't lack jade!"
Shen Jing became slightly interested after hearing about jade.
Angie was very feminine; she was shivering from the cold but still tried to maintain her composure.
This caught Shen Jing's eye; the apocalypse was no shortage of people who couldn't see reality clearly.
Shen Jing could pretty much see the end of her fate. "You're sick."
Angie sneered, "How can you not get sick living like this?!"
Shen Jing was helpless, but she was still a little more patient with people who were about to die.
"What do you want?" Although Shen Jing had stocked up at several pharmacies, she wasn't sure if they had any medicine that could cure her.
"Fever reducers, antibiotics!" Angie excitedly leaned closer to Shen Jing. "Do you have any?!"
“You didn’t mention wanting this before,” Shen Jing nodded. “But it should be available.”
"Really?" Angie seemed to see a glimmer of hope.
At first, she was pleasantly surprised, then her face fell as if she was about to cry, and she said in a low voice, "Why didn't you come sooner..."
"Have you seen a doctor?" The more Shen Jing looked at her, the more she felt something was wrong.
But Angie didn't say anything more, and instead walked back into her room blankly.
Shen Jing could only wait quietly to the side.
But then a minute, two minutes...
There was no sound from inside, so she stood up and walked towards the room.
If Shen Jing hadn't activated her psychic abilities to detect An Qi...
She even suspected she was seeing a ghost.
There was only one open window in the room, and the cold wind blew the curtains loudly and relentlessly. The room was empty.
Shen Jing walked to the window and saw a family photo. It showed a well-off middle-aged man, An Qi, and their six-month-old child.
"Damn it." She couldn't help but want to swear.
Before Shen Jing could think, she heard screams coming from downstairs, "Someone jumped off a building! And with a child in tow!"
It's obvious that Angie took the child with her and perished together. No, when she arrived, no other life forms were detected.
That means the child had already died before Shen Jing arrived...
She never expected to encounter something like this.
No matter how strong Shen Jing is, her heart was inevitably stirred by the shock.
Without hesitation, she turned and was about to leave Angie's house.
When she got to the door, she kicked a bag full of money.
So Angie changed her mind at the last minute and exchanged the money for food?
That means, from the moment she opened the door, she already didn't want to live anymore...
Was he deliberately luring Shen Jing to his home to get revenge on her? Why?
Without a second thought, Shen Jing ran downstairs like a madwoman and looked at the glaringly conspicuous crater in the crowd of onlookers.
With trembling hands, she slowly walked over.
But before she could get close, she saw someone walk over first, point at Shen Jing and say, "It's you! You're the one who killed them!"
Shen Jing stared blankly at the person accusing her of being the murderer, without refuting it.
If she had delivered the medicine sooner, this tragedy wouldn't have happened, right?
In the post-apocalyptic world, tragedies can be witnessed every day.
But this tragedy before her eyes was precisely one she could prevent...
"Why didn't you just give it to her that day! How could you be so vicious, all for the sake of jade!" The young woman looked at Shen Jing with hatred, shouting out Shen Jing's crimes, "Are you happy now? Two lives! It's all your fault!"
Why was it her fault? At the time, Angie only wanted Vitamin D, right?
But it's also possible she misremembered? Did Angie mention it?
Shen Jing couldn't help but doubt herself, her head buzzing.
She doesn't hesitate to deal with those scumbags and scoundrels.
But now innocent people have died because of her, and she can't just let it go!
"Tsk tsk, so young, yet so cold-hearted!"
"Look at her, she's dressed head to toe in the best warm clothes. She's probably after someone's jade, right? Look at the fragments in the snow..."
"That person smashed the jade before jumping down; even if she dies, she won't get away with it!"
The man looked regretfully at the valuable jade stones on the ground; there were quite a few of them.
Shen Jing also noticed those jade fragments, which should be the ones that An Qi wanted to trade.
She clenched her fists, and her lower lip was bitten until it bled.
So she did something wrong, right?
Shen Jing wanted to turn around and leave indifferently, but her feet seemed to have a mind of their own and remained rooted to the spot.
Upon seeing this from a distance, Shen Ting asked the system, "System, what should we do next?"
[Host, your current luck value is 20%. Reaching 100% will give you a chance to end the apocalypse.]
