My Reborn Apocalypse Begins with a Divorce novel Chapter 136

Chapter 136

They didn’t know what was happening outside?

Well, they must have known how things were at the beginning. But after being forced to flee in here, and with their phones dead, they’d completely lost contact with the outside world.

Ray thought for a moment, then said, “Social order has already collapsed. In this extreme cold, most people can’t even step outside. They can only sit in their homes, burning through whatever supplies they have left, waiting to die.”

Several people’s mouths fell open at once, as if they couldn’t accept what they’d just heard.

What?! How was that possible? How could such a big country fall apart after a single natural disaster?

Ray didn’t elaborate. He simply looked at them calmly.

That kind of brutal reality wasn’t something everyone could accept. Sliding into the abyss step by step was one thing; being forced to face it all at once could drive people insane.

“I don’t believe it! I don’t believe you!” The man who’d tried to shoot Ray earlier suddenly grew agitated. Veins bulged on his forehead as he paced back and forth, on the verge of losing control.

His name was Jerry Stinson.

“Whether it’s true or not, we’ll know once we go outside,” another man said. His name was Daniel Finley.

“But that demon dog is out there!” Jerry roared.

Daniel glanced at Ray. “He made it here alive. That means the mutated dog has already left.”

“It’s a demon dog–a demon dog!” Jerry insisted.

To get this hysterical over a single term showed just how tightly his nerves were stretched–right to the breaking point.

Daniel turned back to Ray with a smile. “You say almost no one can go outside, and that society collapsed because of it. Then how did you get here? Don’t tell me you’ve been hiding in this police station all this time.”

At that, all five of them looked at Ray again.

Ray smiled faintly. “Because I have a modified vehicle that can operate in this kind of extreme weather.”

Daniel wore an expression of mild satisfaction, as if everything now made sense. “Name your price. How much to take me home?”

Ray laughed. “Right now, even if you offered ten billion, you wouldn’t be able to buy an egg.”

Daniel froze for a moment, then the corners of his mouth curled up. “I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Daniel–Finley, as in the Finley family.”

The Finley family?

Ray immediately understood. In Senna City, no one didn’t know the Finley family.

The Paradigm Group under their control was the city’s largest corporation, paying over a billion a year in taxes. Rumor had it their rise wasn’t exactly clean, tied to the underworld–yet they were said to operate in both black and white alike.

Ray nodded. “So?”

So what if you’re a Finley? In times like these, who was going to indulge you?

Daniel choked on his words. Growing up, no one had ever spoken to him like that.

Normally, if anyone dared, his bodyguards would have slapped them senseless on the spot.

But now? All three of his bodyguards had been killed by the mutated dog while protecting him.
