Reborn with Nothing but My Farm and Vengeance in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 466

Chapter 466: Chapter 466: Vicious Slander

For the past few days, Melody Summers had been running back and forth between the villa and their high-rise apartment. With her family about to move back into the villa, Melody was diligently opening the windows to air the place out and warming the blankets.

Hugging the toasty warm blankets, Melody Summers thought with some regret, ’It’s a shame it’s been raining this whole time. Otherwise, sunning the blankets would have made them even more comfortable to sleep under.’

Melody had just finished making the bed and was about to flop down and roll around on it when she got a call from Sophie Thorne.

Sophie Thorne had also come down with a fever from the virus a few days ago and had only just recovered. Her voice was still a bit hoarse. "Hey, Melody, I just sent you a link. Did you see it?"

Melody Summers answered honestly, "No, I was busy just now. I haven’t had a chance to look."

On the other end of the line, Sophie Thorne immediately said, "Stop what you’re doing and watch the video I sent."

Melody Summers replied, "Okay, I’ll watch it now."

Sophie’s tone was obviously urgent, so Melody didn’t dare delay. She immediately opened her chat app and clicked the link Sophie had sent.

After she clicked the link, it automatically redirected to a short-form video platform.

Melody Summers stared at the screen in confusion, only to see two familiar, large faces—

It was that bizarre couple from 4-1504, Chloe Sharp and Frank York.

On screen, Frank York had a solemn expression as he spoke to the camera, "Hey everyone, Finn and Bonbon here. Today, we were planning to continue filming our ’Temporary Shelter Series,’ but we never expected to accidentally record a murder!"

"Here’s what happened. There’s a female staff member at our community’s emergency management office. She’s an absolute demon. Taking advantage of the fact that the police can’t be dispatched right now, she’s become completely lawless, killing innocents and shooting a young boy and an old man to death..."

The next second, the camera cut to show Winnie Summers. She was holding a pistol, her lips pressed tightly together, her expression grim as she pulled the trigger.

In the next cut, the scene switched again to Quinn’s body lying on the ground, bleeding profusely. Quinn’s four older sisters were throwing themselves over his body, wailing loudly. The camera cut between close-ups of their four grief-stricken faces, making the scene look utterly tragic.

A moment later, the screen cut back to Frank York’s large face.

Frank’s eyes were red-rimmed and brimming with tears, his face filled with indignation at having witnessed society’s darkness.

He spoke in a choked voice, "The old man she killed was a truly good person! After he died, everyone there was crying their hearts out... I also regret that I couldn’t save him, but that woman had a gun, so I didn’t dare try to stop her..."

"As righteous independent journalists, Finn and Bonbon must expose this, even at the risk of our own lives! Things have come to this point, and we have nowhere left to retreat. The victim was so innocent, and the murderer must be brought to justice!"

"Our only hope now is to survive until the internet and power are restored so we can release this evidence to the public..."

Watching this, Melody Summers almost laughed out of sheer anger.

’This Frank York really knows how to control the narrative!’

If Melody hadn’t been there herself, she might have been fooled by Frank’s manipulative camerawork and editing into thinking the person who was killed was some poor, innocent soul.

Although the video had just been posted, Frank’s account had a million followers, and the video already had over ten thousand views.

Melody frowned and opened the comment section. The comments inside were simply vile:

"UserXXX: Holy crap, can something this dark really happen? Is there any justice left in the world?!"

"UserXXX: This isn’t the first time there’s been no justice. Our community doesn’t even have the centralized heating they show in the video. The relief supplies from the government were all embezzled by officials! A lot of people froze to death!"
