Upgraded Space Thrive in Apocalypse Reborn (caroline) novel Chapter 629

Chapter 629 Strength is Your Answer

Many people nearby were watching what was happening. Some had seen the whole thing from start to finish. Among them was an elderly woman who looked to be in her early seventies. She muttered in a low voice, full of bitterness. “At a time like this, she still runs outside with her hair loose. So pretty, yet she doesn’t even bother to cover herself. And then she blames men for being handsy? Bah. I bet she came out deliberately to seduce men, then beat them up and tried to get something out of it!”

Beside her stood an old man, who looked like her husband. When he heard her words, he quickly agreed. “Hmph. I don’t think she’s decent at all. She looks strong, but her mind is twisted. Who knows what she’s planning? Look around. How many women walk outside with their hair down these days? This is the apocalypse. That’s just asking for trouble. If someone harasses her, she deserves it!”

They spoke quietly, but Caroline had drunk spring water, and her hearing was very sharp.

She heard every word.

Caroline cast a cold glance at the old couple.

They immediately shut their mouths and shrank back a step.

Still, it was obvious they were upset. They kept muttering under their breath, and it was clear they had said a lot of nasty stuff.

Their words affected the people around them. A few nearby began to look at Caroline differently.

Caroline ignored them. There will always be people who blame the victim, overlooking the fact that the true criminal is the one who initially harbored evil thoughts.

The men on the ground tried to get up. Caroline kicked them down again, one by one.

They started begging, crying, and pleading for mercy.

Her answer was simple. She gave each of them two more kicks.

Her ruthlessness made the onlookers step back without thinking.

She stepped on one man’s chest. He lifted his head and looked at her, his face full of fear. “Miss, miss, I was wrong! I really was wrong! I shouldn’t have messed with you! I swear, if I see. you again, I’ll walk the other way, okay?”

He wailed loudly.

Caroline ignored him. She glared at him until he went quiet. Then she turned to Kay and said calmly, “Kay, beauty is not a crime. The crime belongs to those who let evil thoughts grow in their hearts. So, the only thing we can do is become stronger.”

Whether before the apocalypse or after, most women were still weaker than men in raw strength and combat power. Because of physical differences, in every era and every country, crimes like assault and robbery had always existed. And most victims were women.

In her last life, Caroline had shaved her head and ruined her face, trying to avoid people with bad intentions. It worked to a degree, but some people didn’t care how she looked or whether she had hair.

As long as she was a woman, that was enough.

“Kay, when we are weak, we can hide our looks to reduce trouble. But that only works for a while. You can’t hide your figure. You can’t hide your height. You can’t hide your presence. Even now, I’m sure there are still people who have improper thoughts about you.

“This is never your fault. The fault lies with those who choose evil. You don’t need to punish yourself by destroying your appearance.”

Before the apocalypse, Caroline had often heard stories like this–women going out at night, wearing too little, and then running into bad people. Those people would criticize them online. Many would accuse them of not wearing proper clothes when they left home at night. Weren’t those women asking for trouble?

But what someone wears is her freedom. Even though she dressed differently, someone who wanted to commit a crime would still find an excuse.

Learning how to protect yourself is important. Avoiding unnecessary trouble is important too. But who is truly at fault must always be made clear.

“When you meet bad people, fight back. At least now, we have the strength to do that. I didn’t say this to you before because hiding yourself did help you avoid trouble in the apocalypse. But now, that’s no longer necessary.”

After saying that, Caroline kicked the screaming men away with one final sweep of her foot. She raised an eyebrow at Kay. “Kay, go back to being who you used to be. You’re no longer the weakling who had to rely on others just to survive.

“You’ve been reborn through your own strength.”

He wailed loudly.
