Reborn Cave Queen of the End Times novel Chapter 24

Chapter 24 Silent Shots

“I’ll figure something out.”

“Okay.”

Listening to their conversation, Autumn couldn’t help but smile coldly.

Things would get better later?

No.

They would only get worse and worse.

Just as Autumn was about to leave, someone grabbed her. “Autumn? Is that really you? When did you come back? Why haven’t you gone home?”

Autumn fought the urge to throw the person over her shoulder and turned around. It was her neighbor, the same woman who loved gossip and stirring up trouble.

“Oh, it’s you!” Autumn immediately put on a smile. “Long time no see!”

“It really has been a while. Where have you been? Why haven’t you gone home? You didn’t secretly sign the agreement, did you?” the woman asked. “I heard some people signed it behind everyone’s backs recently. It’s infuriating! We were so close to convincing the developers to raise the compensation offer, and people like that ruined all our hard work.”

“No way! Why on earth would I do something like that?” Autumn denied it immediately. “The restaurant where I worked shut down, so I lost my job. I’ve been looking for work everywhere.”

“I see.” The woman finally relaxed. “Let me tell you something. Those developers must have offended some kind of spirit or something. Their storage rooms were locked up tight, the locks weren’t damaged at all, but everything inside vanished without a trace! It’s creepy as hell! Property management and the police are investigating it together right now!”

“Something like that happened?” Autumn, the actual culprit, widened her eyes and put on an innocent, frightened expression. “That is creepy. They must have done too many bad things and gotten cursed!”

“Exactly!” The woman immediately agreed. “By the way, aren’t you going home?”

“I am. Right now, actually.” Autumn answered with a fake smile. “I was just about to head back and take a look.”

Since she didn’t have anything else to do, going back wasn’t a bad idea.

Autumn immediately followed her back to Everjoy Residences.

Looking at the familiar but empty apartment, she casually pulled out a bed, a chair, and a table.

Because she’d always been short on money, the apartment had never had air conditioning installed.
