Quick Transmigration: What to Do When the Male Supporting Character You Saved Becomes Obsessed with

Chapter 428 "Infecting the World" - Male Mother (39)

Her anger was unusually real.

Just as she said, she chose this major and then this career because she loves small animals.

The place where she works, which should be a place to treat and rescue animals, is run by an animal abuser.

How could she not be angry!

After she spoke, Dr. Zhu and Nurse Gu, who were standing nearby, could not hide their anger.

“It’s not just us who are angry. Anyone with a normal conscience and a normal worldview would be angry about this!” Dr. Zhu took off his glasses and wiped his eyes to hide his feelings.

Nurse Gu turned her head and spat out, "He's an absolute beast! Worse than a beast! People like him are a threat to society!"

“He’s thinking about abusing animals, how could he only think about abusing animals! He doesn’t even spare his own son!” Dr. Miao’s voice was full of disgust.

Lu Liruan was so taken aback by this turn of events that she didn't know what to say.

A strong, nauseating feeling welled up inside her, and she felt a chill run down her spine. She felt that there was nothing more vicious and cruel than this!

Lu Liruan felt extremely uncomfortable when she heard Dr. Miao say that he wanted to kill the child's mother.

But since it was confirmed that the child and the child's mother were still alive and safe, Lu Liruan knew that whatever he wanted to do, he had not succeeded.

But those kittens...

Lu Liruan recalled how the kitten rubbed its fluffy head against her on the first night.

The blue membrane in its eyes hadn't faded yet, and it meowed in a sweet, coquettish voice, as if it completely trusted anyone...

Can it see this world clearly?

Did it see its mother?

Did it see clearly the person who harmed and abused it?

Lu Liruan's hands, hanging by her sides, rubbed her fingertips together, as if she could still feel the kitten's fine, soft fur, warm and cozy.

Then, the kitten died.

Lu Liruan remembered how those kittens looked when they died.

How terrible, how inhuman, how like a devil walking among men, must a person be to do such a thing.

Perhaps he will not be punished at all, because he only harmed the kitten, not the child or the woman.

He only harmed the kitten, which had no way to resist and no one to protect it.

But is it that he doesn't want to harm children or women?

Of course he does.

But he dared not...

Perhaps if he continues to live, one day he will dare to put those around him, strangers, and even those who merely brush past him on the street into danger.

Lu Liruan was originally afraid of death, but after experiencing many deaths, she became less afraid.

Since their parents have left them, perhaps even death is not entirely a bad thing.

But whatever death is, and whatever each person's understanding of death.

But no matter what, no one can take another life through brutal and bloody torture.

That is not disregard for death.

That's taking pleasure in death.

Those who toy with death and take pleasure in the painful deaths of other lives will eventually be toyed with by death and receive their due retribution.

Liao Tingyuan noticed that Lu Liruan's body was trembling and assumed she was afraid.

When he held Lu Liruan's hand, he found that her hand was clenched into a fist and he couldn't pry it open.

"They deserved to die!"

Lu Liruan squeezed out those words through gritted teeth. Liao Tingyuan pulled her close, somewhat forcefully drawing her in front of him, and placed one hand on her back, gently patting her back to help her catch her breath.

"Don't get angry yet, ask her first." This was the first time Liao Tingyuan had seen her so angry. Usually, she was clever and full of ideas, but now that she was genuinely angry, Liao Tingyuan was afraid she would hurt herself.

"She gets angry just like a child," Liao Tingyuan thought, holding her clenched fist.

Lu Liruan calmed down a little, and the coolness of Liao Tingyuan's palm helped her regain some of her composure.

Lu Liruan grabbed Liao Tingyuan's hand and drew in the cool warmth emanating from him.

Probably because everything was almost packed up, and the air conditioning wasn't on inside.

Although the weather outside was gloomy and the temperature wasn't very high, Lu Liruan's forehead started to sweat after that sudden breath, and the surrounding air felt sticky and damp.

Even the feeling of breathing into my nasal cavity has a heavy, unsettling quality.

Is he now only known to himself and Liao Tingyuan?

Actually, if you think about it carefully, they didn't know the whereabouts of the male homeowner either.

Because, although the male homeowner would come to their door every day from inside the space.

But in fact, neither of them knew where the male homeowner had died, or where his body was, or whether it had been discovered.

The source of infection in this space remains a mystery.

Lu Liruan didn't know if it was directly related to the whereabouts of the male owner, so she could only suppress her anger and cooperate with Liao Tingyuan to continue to extract information from the people.

Liao Tingyuan knew she was furious, so he took over the questioning.

"Such a big thing has happened, and now you're the only few of you left to deal with his pet hospital? What's going to happen to this hospital?" Liao Tingyuan's voice was calm, and his question was very practical.

"Ha! We wish he could handle it himself, but that coward, ever since this matter was exposed and everyone knows his ugly face and his name, he hasn't shown up again!" Nurse Gu pounded the back of the chair.

“He did the bad thing, and now look at the bad reputation he's in—we're the ones who have to share the burden! What did we do to deserve this? We work diligently and conscientiously. I treat every little animal under my care with utmost care, and yet a few days ago, a client called specifically to yell at me. I don't even know how to respond to this!” Dr. Zhu sighed deeply.

“What can we do? We’re just employees. This is… I called Sister Liang a few days ago and told her we really can’t take it anymore. Since we can’t find anyone surnamed Lu, let’s resign from our jobs.” Dr. Miao shook his head.

“They rented this house too, it has nothing to do with us, so we’ll just accept our bad luck. We won’t take this month’s salary, and we won’t make things difficult for Sister Liang.” After she finished speaking, the other two nodded, looking like they were accepting their bad luck.

"You guys really have it tough." Liao Tingyuan's well-timed words of understanding eased the expressions of the group.

"If the person can't be found, I don't know if Yuanyuan's mother will choose to call the police. After all, when a family has problems, the child will suffer the most."

Lu Liruan felt that Liao Tingyuan's words sounded more like something he would say to get closer to someone.

Rather, it was his genuine feeling that he truly believed it, and Lu Liruan always felt that his words carried an unusual weight.

"Call the police? What should we say when we call the police? Say she's missing. Why is she missing? Because..." Dr. Gu pouted.

"If you ask me, we should hurry up and get the divorce done before this blows up, so that Yuanyuan will have absolutely nothing to do with him anymore! That way, it will hurt Yuanyuan the least. Otherwise, I don't even want to think about how the child will be isolated if others find out he has such a father! Kids these days know everything..." Dr. Miao shook his head.

It seems that no one knows his whereabouts at present, and no one has sought any help in finding him.

Indeed, people who do such things will ultimately be abandoned by everyone.

Even if he disappears, people will only treat him like a rat in the street, hated by everyone, hiding in some ditch or cave, not daring to show his face, let alone make a big fuss about searching for him.

“That makes sense, but how are we going to explain this to Yuanyuan when we get back?” Liao Tingyuan sighed.

"Do you think it's possible that he's staying at a friend's house, or that someone might take him in? If you know anything, why not tell Yuan Yuan's mother so we can find him sooner and resolve this matter sooner? It would be better for Yuan Yuan too."

Liao Tingyuan spoke very sincerely, but Lu Liruan knew that what he really wanted to ask was: Did the male host have any acquaintances?

The person who appeared with him in the stairwell was likely the one he killed...

"Who can take him in? Everyone who goes online should know about this, right? I saw it was trending on social media a couple of days ago!" Nurse Gu's voice was full of schadenfreude.

Liao Tingyuan and Lu Liruan were indeed unaware of this matter. At the time, they didn't even know the male homeowner's name, let alone what he had done.

So the two of them didn't even bother to check whether it was trending or not...

What I didn't expect was that this matter would actually become a trending topic, and that it was known to so many people.

Lu Liruan looked at him, and when her eyes met Liao Tingyuan's, they both tacitly understood that they were thinking about the same problem.

Accomplice!

Yes, they should consider whether there were any accomplices!

As Nurse Gu said, if this matter has spread very widely, normally neither his colleagues nor friends would take him in after learning about it and discovering that he is a dangerous person, two-faced, and a monster who has done such cruel and terrible things.

Or, if I come into contact with him again in the near future, I will not hide him or protect him...

Even his closest person, his wife, couldn't accept it at all.

Not to mention the other people who weren't particularly close to me.

Relatives might take him in and protect him, but these are also very close elders, such as his parents.

But his parents had both died in that car accident.

That night, after returning to his residence, Liao Tingyuan told Lu Liruan that he felt the male homeowner's family was not a healthy or completely normal family.

However, due to the scarcity of clues at the time, Liao Tingyuan was unable to articulate the details clearly, but he did have a general feeling and understanding about the matter.

Lu Liruan did not fully agree at the time, because in her opinion, at least the child's grandparents cared about the child very much.

In the family photo, the grandparents appear to be showing great affection for their grandson.

Liao Tingyuan did not refute what Lu Liruan said.

He simply said to her in a very calm tone, "Sometimes, whether a family is healthy or not isn't determined by how it appears. Many times, relationships that seem warm, healthy, and lively on the surface, like a perfect template, may hide unimaginable filth beneath the surface..."

Lu Liruan felt that what he said was very profound, but at that time, Liao Tingyuan's expression was distant and indifferent.

For a moment, Lu Liruan didn't press the matter further, and didn't even know how to bring it up.

She didn't know Liao Tingyuan well. At first, Lu Liruan thought that she already had a certain understanding of Liao Tingyuan, his personality, and his way of doing things, and that they were already quite familiar with each other.

But the deeper you get to know someone, the more you realize you don't really know them anymore.

Liao Tingyuan's background, the things he had experienced... Lu Liruan realized that she knew nothing about him.

At the beginning, when she truly knew nothing about Liao Tingyuan, she didn't take it seriously and didn't even think about trying to understand his thoughts.

But now, Lu Liruan felt somewhat uncomfortable.

This discomfort came on inexplicably.

But Lu Liruan just couldn't shake it off. She didn't want to have this feeling, this feeling of being separated from Liao Tingyuan again.

Perhaps it's because he was too good to me, and he himself is too mysterious...

When Lu Liruan realized this thought in herself, she crunched on potato chips while trying to convince herself of it.

As Lu Liruan pondered this, she seemed to realize for the first time that there was indeed a rather large age gap between her and Liao Tingyuan...

He always refers to himself as a child.

It seems that his many years of experience are much more substantial than my own thin, even ordinary, experience.

Although Lu Liruan was unclear about what Liao Tingyuan had based his judgment on, she was willing to trust his experience.

Looking at it today, it seems that what Liao Tingyuan said has been completely confirmed.

Although sometimes, some people may be born bad...

However, in most cases, the events that happen during his upbringing and the intentional or unintentional guidance he receives from others will have a significant impact on his personality and character.

He can say such things to his own children.

Lu Liruan also felt that his family, during his childhood, probably didn't have a warm and peaceful family atmosphere.

What kind of person would allow me to approach him at this moment without any reservations?

Most likely, it's someone who shares his thoughts and has committed the same evil deeds!

They were in the same gutter, in the same dark cave, so they were more likely to stick together in such circumstances.

Who were his accomplices?

How can I find him?

What exactly did they do together?

If the thing that was killing him was his accomplice, then...

In the end what happened?
