Global recovery: A century of being stuck in the game

Nothing happened during the night. When Taoyao woke up, it was only half past seven.

Looking out from the windowsill, those weird guys from yesterday are no longer there, the community is very clean, the flowers in the flower beds are blooming, and several people are coming out from different buildings. It looks so peaceful.

If it weren't for the weird things that happened last night, it would be a nice place to live.

After going to the kitchen to cook porridge, she called Grandma Qian several times in front of the master bedroom, but got no response.

Although she knew that Old Lady Qian had not returned yet, she still pretended to mutter, "She hasn't woken up yet."

Then we went to eat.

After everything was packed, Tao Yao took the key and went out.

I managed to trick Aunt Zhao from the property management yesterday into telling me that Area B must be there. I need to go look for it.

There are also disappearances mentioned in the news that need to be looked for clues.

The crisis brought by Old Lady Qian and so many strange night walks yesterday.

Security guarding the gate.

She only needs to survive here for seven days, but what she needs to do cannot be completed in seven days.

While waiting for the elevator, the door of Room 601 was opened and a middle-aged woman of medium build came out.

"Are you the new tenant of Mrs. Qian's house?"

The other party took the initiative to greet her.

Tao Yao admitted generously: "Yes, good morning, auntie."

She greeted politely.

Uncle Luo smiled innocently: "Good morning to you too."

Tsk~

This malice that has nowhere to go is really unpleasant.

Just then the elevator door opened. Tao Yao retracted her gaze, lowered her eyes and walked in.

The woman behind also followed in.

Unlike when Old Lady Qian took out the trash yesterday, she had nothing in her hands. She stood in the corner of the elevator, rubbing her hands from time to time.

Tao Yao pretended not to know and walked out when the elevator stopped.

She walked a little fast, but it also gave the woman enough time to react.

Because she was worried that if she followed too closely she would arouse suspicion, the woman followed quietly, with a distance of nearly five meters between them.

Tao Yao walked while paying attention to the surrounding situation, mainly to see if there were any surveillance cameras in some hidden places.

Just follow her, it seems that she is repeatedly doing psychological preparation.

Tao Yao walked for a while, pretended to trip over a stone on the ground, and fell forward. Just as she was about to get up, a hand holding a handkerchief reached out from behind.

"Hmm..." After holding her breath and pretending to struggle for a moment, she stopped moving.

The woman loosened her hand and the handkerchief fell to the ground. She checked Tao Yao's breath, looked around, picked her up and ran back.

After a while, she ran all the way to the sixth floor, opened the door and closed it again. Then she put the person down on her back, put her hands on her waist, gasped for breath, and then burst into laughter, looking like a lunatic.

After laughing for a while, she stopped, picked up Tao Yao and put her on the sofa, and searched her body at the same time. Except for a key to Room 602, there was nothing found.

She threw the keys aside and went to work in the kitchen.

Tao Yao just lay there motionless, listening to the noise in the kitchen. For a moment she was unsure what this man was trying to do.

Forty minutes later, the woman came over and pushed Tao Yao with her hand: "Wake up, wake up quickly."

Tao Yao slowly opened his eyes, met the woman's eyes, and quickly sat up with his hands on his legs, backing away.

But there was a sofa behind her, so she had no way to retreat: "You...Auntie, what are you going to do?"

The woman reached out and touched Tao Yao's trembling hair, revealing a look of satisfaction. She ignored Tao Yao's question and smiled brightly: "Little baby, what's your name?"

Tao Yao: "..."

"Are you hungry? I just cooked, come and eat something!"

The woman was probably in a good mood. She turned to the kitchen and brought out the freshly prepared food, urging her: "Eat quickly."

The feeding and head-patting actions are no different from raising a pet...

No wonder Old Lady Qian also cooked for her before. What she said about working hard was fake, what was real was feeding her.

In this case, Mrs. Qian’s behavior yesterday was very normal.

Some monsters keep pets, and in this world, humans are their pets.

They will prepare food for their pets, buy nice clothes for them, touch their heads, pamper them, and also vent their emotions to their pets.

And once the pet is disobedient, it will be dealt with without hesitation.

The many people mentioned in the news who are missing provide a substantive target of suspicion.

Tao Yao did not take the chopsticks handed to him by the woman, but stepped back: "Are you a human trafficker?"

The smile on the woman's face disappeared all of a sudden, and her expression became ferocious: "Eat! Why don't you eat? Why..." Why are you not listening!

Before he could finish his words, he heard Tao Yao's next threat.

"If Grandma Qian knew about this, she would definitely put you in jail!"

The woman was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"Hahaha!!"

As if he was amused by her words, he said, "Call the police? Do you think that damn old lady is a good person? If she hadn't stolen my pet, if she hadn't...how could my pet have died for being disobedient?"

As she spoke, she seemed to have thought of something funny, and suddenly stretched her neck to get closer to Tao Yao: "Do you think you are renting a house? You are just a pet to her. If a pet is not obedient, it will be eaten by Awooo~!"

Tao Yao was even more frightened. She curled up and shook her head tremblingly: "Impossible! You lied to me! Grandma Qian is a good person!"

"Oh, she's not a human either. She's an ugly monster. She chose to be a monster in order to survive. In the end, she used her butcher knife to chop down real people like you. Hehe, I'm scared..."

In order to scare Tao Yao, she moved closer, but because the distance was too close, when a fist hit her, she didn't even have the chance to dodge because the speed was too fast!

"boom!"

The words in her mouth stopped abruptly, and her body tilted and fell to the ground.

Tao Yao shook her hands, her eyes somewhat cold: "You talk too much nonsense, but you still don't get to the point."

Getting up from the sofa, she first put away the key to 602, then found the key from the woman and searched the entire 601.

The location and layout of the house are no different from 602. The facilities in the second bedroom are exactly the same, but the master bedroom is a bit hard to describe in comparison.

As soon as I opened the door, I smelled a rotten smell. The smell of blood was no longer fresh but stinky.

There was a bed inside and the carpet on the floor was made of human skin. She kept saying that it was Old Lady Qian who caused the death of her pet, but hadn't she also killed many?

She just hated Old Lady Qian for harming her pet, and was just envious of the other party for having a new "pet".

That's why he developed ill will towards Taoyao.

But if she could make the pet her own, she would still be happy to keep it.

After searching through the master bedroom closet, she found a prop.

[Transformation Control Talisman: Can prevent strange transformations. 】

This is a simple and practical prop.

He returned to the living room, dragged the woman back to the master bedroom, took out the Red Flame Sword and beheaded her.

After leaving 601, she took the escalator to go downstairs.
