Quick Transmigration: Host, Please Be a Mute Beauty

Jiang Yanyan was taken to the interrogation room, still in a daze.

The interrogator, with a cold expression, asked her, "Jiang Jiming is your father, isn't he?"

Jiang Yanyan was so scared she was about to cry. She hadn't done anything wrong. "Yes...yes."

"Your father failed to awaken his superpower by swallowing a crystal core in his dormitory last night, resulting in the deaths of six people. Were you aware of his unauthorized use of the crystal core?"

Jiang Yanyan was shocked when she heard the news. She burst into tears, "Waaah, so my father has passed away?"

The interrogator interviewed Jiang Yanyan today because he suspected that she and her father were undercover agents sent by another base. Otherwise, how could anyone be so bold as to violate the rules on their very first day at the base?

The interrogator became even more ruthless when he thought the girl in front of him might be an undercover agent. "You just need to answer me whether you knew or not!"

Jiang Yanyan was startled. Her mind raced. "I...I know."

"Let me explain in more detail."

Fortunately, she was too scared to secretly swallow the crystal core last night.

“Last night, my father gave me a crystal core and told me to take it that night and not to worry about anything else. But I know the base’s rules, and I advised my father not to do it. He agreed, but I really didn’t know he would ignore my advice and cause such a consequence.”

"Then where is your crystal core?"

Jiang Yanyan knew that her words had been somewhat believed. "It was in my pocket. I originally planned to take it to the laboratory specially supplied by the base this morning, but I was brought here as soon as I opened my eyes."

After taking her statement, the interrogator said to the person behind her, "Take her home!"

A few tears clung to Jiang Yanyan's face, but her heart, which had been clenched with worry, finally relaxed. Thankfully, she hadn't listened to her father.

Thinking of this, she felt even more resentful towards Jiang Jiming, who had almost killed her.

Jiang Yanyan arrived at the special laboratory. There were people guarding the door with guns. She knew that if anyone underwent any abnormal changes, they would be shot dead.

But now she's all alone. In this cannibalistic era, she can only rely on herself.

Jiang Yanyan lay on the specially provided bed, swallowed the crystal core, closed her eyes, and forced herself to fall asleep.

On the other side, the Jiang family.

Jiang Qiao and his two companions were all ready to go. It was cold outside, and the three of them were wearing the same style of black fleece-lined windbreakers.

Pei Yan looked at Shi Chuan's clothes with a displeased expression; he didn't want him to wear the same clothes as his sister.

It would be better if Tokikawa died.

Unaware that someone wanted him dead, Shi Chuan admired himself in the mirror, asking, "Jiang Qiao, am I handsome?"

Jiang Qiao was speechless for a long time before finally uttering a single word: "...Handsome."

Before Shi Chuan could even laugh out loud, Pei Yan said expressionlessly, "Ugly."

Shi Chuan cares most about his image. After spending several years in the human world, the thing he learned the most was swearing. "You're the ugly one. You look like a deadbeat sissy, and you look even uglier in that black windbreaker."

Pei Yan: "Ugly."

Seeing that the two were about to start arguing again, Jiang Qiao quickly stopped them, "Stop, young master, second young master, give this old servant some face, stop arguing, we're about to set off."

The two remained silent.

Jiang Qiao felt like she was raising two children, but it was actually quite good. Shi Chuan had lost his initial melancholy. In fact, she knew that Shi Chuan had always been a merman who kept everything to himself. Although they often bickered and joked around, he couldn't sleep at night and would sit by the living room window all night looking at the hazy moon.

As for how Jiang Qiao found out, it was on a dark and windy night when she woke up hungry and went downstairs to cook noodles. In order not to disturb him while he was admiring the moon, Jiang Qiao never went hungry again that night and took a small bread roll into bed every day.

Pei Yan also started talking more, even though he said things that displeased Shi Chuan.

Jiang Qiao prepared three large bags, filled with food, water, and clothes, one for each of the three people.

Although she had space, she still needed to carry a bag to avoid being seen.

Just as Jiang Qiao went upstairs to get another cotton-padded coat, a book fell out. Curious, Jiang Qiao picked it up, opened it, and randomly flipped through a few pages. She discovered that it was the original owner's diary.

She muttered to herself, "Strange, I didn't notice it when I cleaned up before!"

Shi Chuan downstairs is already urging us.

Jiang Qiao sighed. This thing was quite important. "Forget it, I'll take it with me. I don't know if I'll be able to come back in the future."

Shi Chuan controlled the sound waves and killed several zombies in the yard. Jiang Qiao led the two out to the garage and chose the best-performing Hummer.

Jiang Qiao wasn't worried about fuel consumption at all; her grandmother had it in her storage space.

Shi Chuan drove, while Jiang Qiao and Pei Yan sat in the back.

Pei Yan moved closer to Jiang Qiao. At that moment, he suddenly felt that having someone was actually quite nice, because then he could sit with his sister.

Jiang Qiao could sense that Pei Yan was in a good mood, but she didn't ask. Everyone has their own secrets.

The Hongyan base is in Ningcheng, another province. Jiang Qiao calculated the time and figured it should take about a day if things went smoothly, and they could arrive by tomorrow morning.

The roads were congested and littered with zombies, so they had to take back roads.

Shi Chuan is an impatient person; he'll either smash someone into the air or kill them with sonic control. His motto is: anyone I see will die.

Jiang Qiao was shocked: "Young Master, aren't you tired after killing so many?"

Shi Chuan scoffed, "For a merman like me with the purest bloodline, these are nothing to me, unlike half-mermen who can't even use a little bit of their abilities."

Pei Yan didn't speak, and moved closer to Jiang Qiao.

Jiang Qiao pondered: [Wangcai, he's so powerful, what if he kills me when I push him?]

Wangcai: [Host, why don't you do it when he's not looking? He trusts you so much.]

Jiang Qiao suddenly felt sad when she heard the last sentence.

Wangcai sensed her emotions and realized he had said the wrong thing.

He knew that although the host pretended to be relaxed every time he said he was going to push Shi Chuan into the zombie horde, he also knew whether Jiang Qiao would be able to do it when the day actually came. Jiang Qiao was different from him; she was human, and humans develop feelings after spending time together.

[Host, that's not what I meant...]

Jiang Qiao: [I know.]

Wangcai didn't dare to say anything more.

Jiang Qiao rested her head against the car window, closed her eyes, and suddenly felt a cold touch on her palm. She could feel the cautiousness and probing of the person next to her.

She grasped his cold hand in return.

Pei Yan was even happier. His sister liked him a little more than she liked Shi Chuan. He had never seen Shi Chuan and his sister hold hands. Thinking of this, his eyes lit up.

[Ding-dong~ Congratulations, host, your strategy value has reached 76%. We hope you'll keep up the good work! *kiss*]

The car was stuffy, so Jiang Qiao opened the window a little to let in some fresh air, but the thick blood on the ground smelled foul and made her gag, so she quickly closed the window tightly.

The car was still moving. Along the way, Jiang Qiao saw women openly displaying prices on the roadside, saw zombies devouring the remains of infants, saw…

Against the backdrop of the apocalypse, all the evil in human nature is revealed, and Jiang Qiao closes her eyes.
