lunchtime.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After having her lunch, Su Jiyai set out on the journey to distribute flyers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time she decided to move towards the direction of Willow land.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe…she could investigate a bit and get to know something?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Halfway through, a man suddenly jumped in front of Su Jiyai’s car.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jiyai slammed on the brakes, her heart racing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The car skidded to a stop just inches from the man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She quickly got out, ready for anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man was disheveled and clearly desperate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was 5’5, and had fair skin, and blue hair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes were blue too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Handsome was the only word that could be used to describe him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Please, help me,” he gasped, his eyes wide with fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jiyai took a cautious step forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What happened?” she asked, keeping her distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The zombies…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>they attacked my group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I was the only one who managed to escape,” the man explained, his voice trembling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His head was lowered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jiyai carefully observed the man and realized that the man was gravely injured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She couldn’t afford to trust just anyone, especially in these times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But leaving him here to die wasn’t an option either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Get in the car,” she finally said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll take you to a safe place.” The man gratefully climbed into the car, and Su Jiyai resumed driving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking she could get another tenant, Su Jiyai was happy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly the man ducked down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jiyai who was observing the man raised an eyebrow and subconsciously became alert.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Please don’t hand me over them!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Please, savior!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I beg you!” The man suddenly started to beg.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s your name?” “Lin Hao,” he replied, still looking around nervously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lin Hao, I want you to answer my question truthfully, otherwise I will kick you out.” Su Jiyai said in a cold voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Hao’s body trembled under Su Jiyai’s cold gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he can’t see Su Jiyai’s face, he can sense the coldness in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(Author: Um…are you sure it’s not from AC?) “Did you or did you not lie to me before?” Su Jiyai asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I…” Lin Hao swallowed but under the pressure, he told the truth, “I lied…” “What is the truth?” Su Jiyai continued to ask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Logic says she should kick out a liar, however, her instincts as a soldier told her…Lin Hao was an honest man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though…it looks like he was hiding something…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Hao was slightly taken aback by Su Jiyai’s words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He expected Su Jiyai to kick him out the moment he answered the first question, but Su Jiyai continued to inquire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This shows Su Jiyai wasn’t an unreasonable person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And maybe…just maybe she will help him…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I was a normal citizen just a year ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To survive I joined an institute that promised to give me proper meals and a safe place to stay.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, before accepting me, they asked me to take a vaccination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They would inject some medicine in me to prevent me from turning into a zombie even if a zombie bite me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I instantly declined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If such a vaccine existed, why would humans be on the verge of extinction?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Later in charge person talked with me for 10 minutes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For some reason, I agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the medicine was injected into me, I felt as if I would explode.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My bones started to crack and my skin was turning red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My body swelled and I thought I would die for sure.” Horror appeared in Lin Hao’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just reminiscing those memories was enough to make him tremble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“By the time I opened my eyes, I was lying…among skeletons…tons of skeletons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be precise it was a huge hall with high walls and just a small window as an exit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as I was wondering as to why I was there, the footsteps sounded and I heard some conversation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘How sad!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I thought with the death of that person, we would have some extra meat!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But his skin was poisoned…I still feel angry at the mere thought of how the institute lost an awakening potion and in the end, all we got was poisoned meat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Loss!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a huge loss!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Neither meat persevered nor a superhuman was created!’ I understood they were talking about me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After they finished their conversation, they opened the exit and threw a human skeleton in…” Lin Hao almost puked when he remembered the scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So you escaped and asked me for help?” Su Jiyai asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, in her mind, she doubted the time frame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Didn’t he say he went to the institute a year ago?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So was he in a coma for a year?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But…how can the human body survive the coma if no nutrition is supplied?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her case was different since she had the system by her side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No…I woke up just an hour after I was thrown…I tried to quietly escape but was caught.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the researcher of the institutes saw me, their interest peaked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the past year…they have been injecting all kinds of medicine into me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally today I was able to escape.” Lin Hao explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jiyai stared at Lin Hao’s expression and finally realized what Lin Hao was hiding…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You want me to help you?” Su Jiyai asked calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Savior, can you?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would be a great favor if you can!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Please!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Please savior…” Lin Hao started to beg.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I can’t.” Su Jiyai calmly said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why?” Lin Hao was shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to the interaction just now, he evaluated Su Jiyai as a kind person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So why is she refusing to help?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My first condition for helping you was…you will tell me the truth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, you are still hiding something from me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do you think I am a fool?” “No savior!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I didn’t!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I am not hiding anything from you…”  “Get out.” Su Jiyai said calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No please listen to me…” “Get out.” Su Jiyai didn’t budge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Hao suddenly lowered his head, “I truly am not lying…” His aura turned gloomy suddenly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hint of loneliness appeared in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you leaving on your own, or shall I personally throw you out?” “Why do you want to know the truth?” Lin Hao suddenly asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice was frighteningly calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His demeanour changed too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earlier he looked like a pitiful puppy but now, he looked as if he was indifferent to the worldly affair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, his words indicated that Su Jiyai’s guess was correct.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You are wrong.” Su Jiyai said calmly and looked at Lin Hao through the rearview mirror, “I wanted to know the truth, I don’t want to know it anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You can leave.” Lin Hao indifferently gazed at Su Jiyai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His beautiful blue eyes slowly filled with malice and he chuckled, “Are you a member of the institute too?” Su Jiyai paused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why did Lin Hao suspect that she was a member of the institute?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What if I am and what if I am not?” Su Jiyai didn’t answer him straightaway and asked instead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you are then sorry…I will have to kill you.” Lin Hao’s eyes color suddenly changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Host!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Danger detected!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Initiating emergency measures!] Suddenly two seatbelt straps shot out from the seats, binding Lin Hao tightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The car doors automatically locked, trapping him inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jiyai’s system wasn’t taking any chances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Hao only chuckled, because, the next moment an invisible force wrapped around Su Jiyai’s neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you think, physically restricting me save you?” [Danger!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Danger detected!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Host in danger!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Initiating emergency measures!] Before Su Jiyai could feel any tightening around her neck, a single strand from Su Jiyai’s veil wrapped around her and protected her from the invisible force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Hao’s eyes darkened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a gloomy tone, he said, “So you are from those institutes.” There was certainty in his tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why do you think so?” Su Jiyai asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked as if she wasn’t the one who was attacked just now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Hao didn’t answer Su Jiyai, “Do you plan to hand me to them?” Su Jiyai leaned on her seat, “Now I am much more comfortable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Your previous act…was too unfitting.” How could a human tortured for a year, act so pitiful?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Humans who bear too much torture slowly turn cruel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They wouldn’t turn weak, they would gain a strong will.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A will that will not bend in front of others…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adversaries make humans strong not weak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And if someone acts weak even after enduring so much…it could only mean they are faking it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were also some loopholes in Lin Hao’s story.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was caught just because he was alive?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if the researchers were curious about him, they wouldn’t experiment on him for a year straight if he didn’t have something valuable on him…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jiyai’s words caught Lin Hao off guard and he frowned slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You…don’t belong to the institute?” Lin Hao asked with uncertainty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the first time in the last year, he was doubting his judgment.\u003C\u002Fp>",1504,"2026-06-06T06:36:35.658Z",1,"novelbin.me","bc5581cc967268c81d1725fafcb1f07fe7760990c7238223e73169f2b1dc690c","apocalypse-i-have-a-multiplier-system-chapter-44","apocalypse-i-have-a-multiplier-system-chapter-42",661,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fapocalypse-i-have-a-multiplier-system-cover.jpg"]
