Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food

Chapter 233: Chapter 127 You Only Need to Be Responsible to Me_3

”If I hadn’t come back this time, this matter might have been left unresolved.”

”But, I’ve always said, in our building, such things are absolutely not allowed to happen.”

As he spoke, he glanced at Yang Mei and said, ”Sister Mei, if Zhang Lanjuan comes later, you should step aside.”

Yang Mei’s heart trembled, and she quickly said, ”Little Brother, I really didn’t know about this matter.”

She was a bit flustered. If Zhang Lanjuan’s son really did something like that, wouldn’t it ultimately be her fault?

Wasn’t it because she was close to Zhang Lanjuan that her son had the audacity to act so recklessly?

If that were the case, how would Liang Yuan view her?

She felt terrified and regretful in her heart. Zhang Lanjuan didn’t seem like an ungrateful person; how could it come to this?

Liang Yuan saw through her thoughts and smiled, ”Sister Mei, this matter has nothing to do with you, don’t overthink it. Staying here will only put you in a tough spot.”

Yang Mei quickly shook her head, ”No, I’m not in a tough spot. I said it a long time ago, Little Brother, I will always defer to you. When Sister Zhang came to me back then, I made it clear to her.”

”I don’t want to make things difficult for you, and I certainly don’t want you to be put in a difficult position because of me. I must firmly stand by your side and make that clear to everyone.”

Liang Yuan couldn’t help but laugh, ”Alright then, stay by my side later.”

”Okay.” Yang Mei obediently nodded.

Power’s face had remained grim, and he said, ”This Sun Da, I’ve observed him during patrols these past few days; he’s indeed an honest person.”

”He’s very proactive in his work, never shirking his duties. How could he have such a son?”

Liang Yuan shook his head, ”Everyone has different facets to their character; the human heart is complex. He might be an honest person, but his son might not be.”

”Alright, we’ll know exactly what’s happening when they come.”

”Besides, there’s something I need to tell you all about my recent trip out.”

Power caught on, ”What, is that Strength-type Superpower User across the way really formidable?”

Liang Yuan shook his head, ”No, he’s been taken care of. This time, I encountered mutated creatures invading the building over at Tower 75.”

”What!”

This revelation shocked both Power and Yang Mei.

Mutated creatures invading the building?

Previously, no matter how fierce the floodwaters were, they hadn’t reached this level, and everyone could still live reasonably well.

Now Liang Yuan suddenly said that those mutated creatures could invade the building. How could people not be terrified?

”What kind of creatures? What exactly is going on?” Power hurriedly asked.

Liang Yuan recounted the story of the mutated frog and shared his speculation about amphibian mutations.

”This mutated frog might just be the beginning. In the future, more and more amphibious creatures might come out looking for landing points.”

”The building isn’t safe. Our plan to leave here must be expedited.”

Power looked grim, ”Mutated frogs... Is the water outside seawater or freshwater? How can there be both sea fish and frogs?”

Liang Yuan shook his head, ”The world has changed. These creatures have all undergone various mutations. Seawater, freshwater, it doesn’t matter anymore; what’s important is that these creatures are adapting to environmental changes.”

”But we humans still can’t overcome this issue.”

”We’ve been living on land for too long.”

Both Power and Yang Mei were filled with sorrow, growing increasingly hopeless about the future.

What has happened to this world?

Seeing their expressions, Liang Yuan couldn’t help but say, ”Don’t lose heart. We humans are also evolving, aren’t we?”

”We’re also awakening various abilities and continuously adapting to this age of the great flood.”

”Amphibious creatures and aquatic organisms have just evolved a step ahead of us. We might not be unable to catch up.”

Encouraged by his words, Power nodded, ”You’re right. Perhaps one day, we’ll also evolve the ability to live underwater.”

”Do you think the high-altitude areas in the west have been flooded?” Yang Mei suddenly asked with a burst of inspiration.

”Probably not. Our altitude is low, so the seawater backflow and floodwaters are fierce. If even the high-altitude areas in the west are flooded, we would have been submerged long ago,” Power replied.

Liang Yuan didn’t say anything. Everything in this world was changing.

All their knowledge was becoming unfamiliar.

The western regions used to be high-altitude; are they still now?

Even if those places are high-altitude, during this process of worldwide mutation, if they weren’t submerged by seawater, does it mean there aren’t other disasters?

If there truly were no disasters in the west, the military there must still be intact.

Why haven’t we seen any rescue efforts?

This is enough to indicate one thing: National institutions have collapsed.

The west must also be facing major disasters.

As they were speaking, a knock suddenly came from outside the door.

”Yang Mei, Yang Mei, please, save my son, save my son!”

As soon as the knocking started, Zhang Lanjuan’s urgent pleas could be heard from outside.

Yang Mei’s expression changed slightly, and she looked at Liang Yuan.

Liang Yuan stood up and said, ”I told you to go to the bedroom.”

Yang Mei shook her head, ”I’ll go explain it to her.”

With that, she rushed to the door and said to Zhang Lanjuan outside, ”Sister Zhang, I can’t help with your son’s situation. Don’t come to me.”

Zhang Lanjuan immediately panicked and said, ”Yang Mei, Yang Mei, I’m begging you as Sister Zhang. If you don’t help this time, my son will really die.”

”Please, for the sake of our past relationship, save my son.”
