Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 177

Chapter 177 -177 Suspected

Behind Liang Jiuhui, Guan Hong and Xu Shi both showed some anger. Jia Kaiji, who always disregarded others, actually questioned Liang Jiuhui today in front of so many people.

However, Liang Jiuhui didn’t seem to mind. With an unchanged expression, he helped Jia Kaiji up, and said to him, “Uncle Jia, we also just arrived here. I believe those three who have been here throughout will know more.”

He then turned to Jiang Wen, who was still crying on the ground, and asked what had actually happened here.

Although still crying, Jiang Wen managed to sob out the sequence of events.

It turned out that she was startled awake this morning by the banging on the door from Jia Sheng’s room. Just as she opened the door, she was almost grabbed by Jia Sheng, who had run out and transformed into a zombie. She initially wanted to run to the second and third floors to call her teammates upstairs, but those teammates had also turned into zombies!

She had no idea what had happened or why things had turned out this way overnight!

Overnight? Yes, it must have been those two.

“It was you two, wasn’t it?!”

Jiang Wen pointed at Xia Mufei and Xia Ying and shouted angrily. It was them, holding a grudge over last night’s incident, so they committed this heinous act.

“Me? Us?”

Xia Mufei, pointing at his own nose, asked in surprise—what did this have to do with them?

Xia Ying, leaning carelessly against the wall behind them, seemed utterly unaffected by Jiang Wen’s accusations.

Su Jin found it amusing—if someone like Xia Mufei were to harm others, then there would be no good people left in the world.

However, Liang Jiuhui still looked toward Xia Mufei, apparently waiting for an explanation. So, Xia Mufei felt compelled to recount last night’s conflict—which was hardly a conflict—to everyone present.

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiuyuan shook his head; he thought these people had no shame. They had kicked people who had a room out to sleep on the balcony, and last time, they even tried to steal their belongings. Surely, only those with guilty consciences would have turned out this way.

“Isn’t it because you harbored resentment towards Jia Sheng for making you sleep on the roof?”

Jiang Wen was relentless because besides these two, no one else had come into their building.

“Talk with evidence, don’t bite wildly like a dog,”

Xia Ying’s cold voice came through, and Su Jin couldn’t help glancing at him again. Was he defending Xia Mufei? She remembered that in her past life, Xia Mufei did not have such a person by his side.

“Then it was you! Since you also live here, you guys rushed over so quickly, did you know something would happen here?!”

Jiang Wen switched targets again, now suspecting Su Jin and the others. She had been surprised when she saw these people arrive as many had a grudge with their group recently, but it was these people who had materialized!

While the group was talking, Lu Hao had taken a quick look around the house, all the way to the kitchen. There he saw a sink full of unwashed dishes and a pot which, though emptied of its contents, clearly showed they had been eating porridge.

A bag of rice on the table nearby caught Lu Hao’s attention; the hole in it had been tied up with a rubber band to prevent the rice from spilling out.

Lu Hao immediately understood.

The thing that caused these people to mutate might have been due to this.

Unexpectedly, they had taken this object away.

He walked over to Jiang Wen and asked her, “Did you eat rice porridge last night?”

Jiang Wen, not knowing why Lu Hao was asking this, still nodded her head.
