Chapter 225: Chapter 221: Slapping the Reborn Apocalypse Heroine 4
Su Leqing was fascinated by the Space Bracelet and immediately sought out her father, Su Peng.
Su Leqing wanted to put more supplies into the space, which required her father’s assistance.
Additionally, she wanted to prepare a large number of weapons and medicines. She feared that her father’s money wouldn’t be enough, so she planned to quickly sell her company shares before the apocalypse started and use the money to exchange for supplies and other necessities.
She also prepared a script in her mind for when she would meet Su Peng. She read many novels, many of which were about rebirth in the apocalypse, all depicting the heroines immediately preparing supplies after their rebirth. She thought about following the heroines’ example.
Su Leqing knocked on the door of the study.
After hearing a voice from inside permitting entry, she pushed the door open.
"Dad."
She called out sweetly.
Su Peng, who was working, looked up at Su Leqing: "Lele is here, do you need something from dad?"
Su Leqing sat opposite Su Peng.
Without either of them noticing, the computer in the study flickered.
"Dad, I, I have something I want to tell you."
Only after preparing herself did Su Leqing speak: "I had a dream that in a little over a year, the apocalypse will come."
These words made Su Peng laugh.
He stopped working, crossed his arms on the desk, and looked directly at Su Leqing: "Lele, maybe you should read fewer novels."
Su Leqing was quite upset and said angrily, "Dad, you actually don’t believe me? Then let me show you something."
She looked at a teacup on the desk and connected with the space with her mind. Soon, the teacup disappeared before Su Peng’s eyes.
Su Peng looked at Su Leqing in astonishment.
Su Leqing smiled smugly: "See? In addition to having dreams, I also acquired a Space Superpower. Just now, I put the cup into the space."
As she spoke, the cup reappeared on the desk.
Then, Su Leqing smiled mischievously and directly collected Su Peng’s chair into the space as well.
Su Peng found himself sitting on nothing, and he tumbled to the ground.
He was both annoyed and amused: "Always teasing your dad."
Su Leqing hurried to help him up: "Dad, it’s your fault for not believing me."
Su Peng was still skeptical: "I still find it hard to believe... What kind of apocalypse is it? Surely not zombies?"
Su Leqing nodded: "Yes, zombies. I dreamt that in a little over a year, many humans will have high fevers and turn into zombies. Those bitten by zombies will be infected with the Zombie Virus and also become zombies. The whole world turned into a mortal hell..."
Su Leqing shared some of her experiences from her previous life with Su Peng: "Dad, I think my dream is true, it’s a prophecy. We need to prepare early."
This time, Su Peng took it seriously.
To make him believe, Su Leqing also talked about several events that would soon happen, such as stock market fluctuations, a volcanic eruption in a small country, and news of an airplane crash.
"Dad, these are all premonitions I’ve had. If you don’t believe me, just wait and see if these events happen."
Su Leqing put the chair back in its place and got up to leave.
Su Peng lowered his head, deep in thought, and did not call after Su Leqing.
However, Su Leqing knew that if those events did happen, Su Peng would certainly believe her. By then, she would have to hurry to get money to buy supplies.
After all, there was only a little over a year before the apocalypse. She needed to prepare sufficient supplies during this time and also enjoy life while it was still peaceful.
After a few steps, Su Leqing remembered something.
She turned back and went to the study: "Dad, whether you believe it or not, I’m going to break off the engagement."
"Break off the engagement?"
Su Peng jumped in shock: "Don’t mess around. The Xiao Family is not to be trifled with. If you dare break off the engagement and anger the old master of the Xiao Family, our family will be in trouble."
Su Leqing didn’t care about that.
"Psh, with the apocalypse coming, what’s there to fear from the Xiao Family? After the apocalypse, without a Superpower User, the Xiao Family means nothing. I want to break off the engagement, and I need to do it quickly. I have to find the strongest one to survive the apocalypse."
Yes, the main reason Su Leqing wanted to call off the engagement was that the strongest person in the post-apocalypse was currently at a low point in his life, and she had to quickly break off the engagement to find him, to offer warmth and cling to his coattails.
She thought of the strongest person in the post-apocalypse’s elegance, and couldn’t help but become a fangirl: "What’s so great about Xiao Yuan that weakling? He’s just someone who looks good but is useless, not a bit of a strong man’s grace."
Su Peng tried to persuade Su Leqing again, he just didn’t agree to the retraction of the engagement at this time.
But Su Leqing was dead set on retracting the engagement.
"If you don’t go to the Xiao Family to explain, then I’ll go myself."
Su Leqing started being capricious and played the rascal with Su Peng.
Su Peng was utterly helpless and had to step back for a moment: "Okay, okay, wait for dad to prepare some gifts before we visit the Xiao Family. We can’t just show up empty-handed, can we? Also, we need to discuss properly what to say when we get there."
"Fine then."
Su Leqing pouted and said reluctantly.
Anning coaxed Jixiang and Ru Yi to sleep and tiptoed with her computer to the balcony.
She sat down cross-legged, placed the computer on her knees, and then watched the footage recorded from the Su family’s study.
She did not ask An Xin for help with this.
Her computer skills allowed her to infiltrate the Su family’s computer unnoticed, turn on the camera, and record the conversation between Su Leqing and Su Peng.
After watching the footage, Anning smiled and called out to An Xin: "I need you to produce a video of Tang Chunhua searching and stealing the bracelet in my bedroom. Make it especially realistic, so that even with today’s technological means of analysis, it would be deemed authentic."
"Alright."
This was really a piece of cake for An Xin.
She quickly produced the footage.
Anning saved the footage to a USB flash drive.
She arranged a few more things and went to the police station the next day to file a report.
Another busy day today.
Early in the morning, the police station received a lot of reports. Just when everyone was particularly busy, a clear and melodious voice came through: "Comrade, I want to report a crime."
Several police officers turned around and saw an exceptionally beautiful girl with two children coming over.
Tang Anning was very beautiful and well-mannered; having read quite a few books, she naturally carried an indescribable scholarly aura, and her temperament was outstandingly good.
People who look good are always treated well to begin with.
It was no different for Anning this time.
A policewoman quickly stood up: "Please have a seat. What would you like to report?"
"Major property theft."
Anning said calmly after sitting down.
The policewoman quickly noted: "How much property was stolen?"
Anning still with a calm face: "About a million or so."
That really did sound like a major theft of property.
The policewoman took it seriously: "Please give us the details, so we can record them."
Anning nodded, and took out a USB flash drive: "This is the video footage recorded by the camera in my room, and the person in it is the thief who stole things."
The policewoman took the USB drive and watched the footage on her computer carefully, then saved the video on her computer.
"The woman in the footage stole your jade bracelet, it’s hard to define its value. Have you had the jade bracelet appraised?"
The policewoman asked Anning.
Anning looked somewhat sad: "I’ve checked her call records, she didn’t steal the jade bracelet to wear for herself, but was instructed by someone. That person transferred her roughly a million, so, I am certain the value of my jade bracelet is over a million, maybe two million, or possibly more..."
Anning was not finished speaking when Ru Yi suddenly started crying.
She sobbed and pleaded with the policewoman: "Auntie, you must help my aunt. My... My grandparents passed away early, and both my parents also passed away, now only my brother, my aunt, and I depend on each other for survival. That bracelet is the family heirloom from my grandmother’s family, it’s the most precious thing for the three of us. Now it has been stolen by a bad person, my aunt is so heartbroken."
Ru Yi’s crying brought Jixiang to tears as well.
He grasped the police officer’s clothes: "Auntie, you look so beautiful, and you must have a good heart. You must help us, I beg you. If we can’t find the bracelet, my aunt will be really heartbroken, and we will also be very, very sad."
