Apocalypse: My Sweetie Is Tough but Cute-Chapter 76 - 0: How to Avoid Others and Enter the Space
Chapter 76 -076: How to Avoid Others and Enter the Space
Disaster zone, Peng Village.
Under the night sky, villagers kindled bonfires, gathered around them to warm themselves—it was destined to be a restless night. The aftershocks had become minor, but still, no one dared to return home to sleep tonight, or perhaps it would be more accurate to say that no one knew how many could fall asleep.
Some were dead, others injured, and still the Hunting Team had vanished without a trace. Every nerve was stretched to the breaking point.
No one knew if the earthquake would strike again or if the outside world knew that deep within the mountains Peng Village was suffering.
Phones had no signal; no calls could be made. Now, in the back seat of Su Shu’s car, the life of a woman who had miscarried hung in the balance. The mountain roads were blocked, and among the remaining medical supplies, there was nothing that could save her.
This feeling of helpless, suffocating constraint silently spread among them all…
...
What to do?
Whether it was the village doctor or Su Shu, or any of the others, for a moment no one knew how to handle the dilemma before them.

After a long time, Su Shu said, “If the main road is impassable for cars, isn’t there another path through the mountains that could be used to evacuate people? We can’t just let someone die here, right?”
After taking the pulse, the doctor said, “Even on the main road, it would take at least twenty to thirty minutes to reach the town. If we took the mountain path like before, it would take one to two hours during daylight when visibility is clear and one can walk fast. But now, in the dark of night, it would be a miracle if we could manage in less than two or three hours. Shuanzi’s wife won’t last that long.”
“Then what do we do?”
What to do? He didn’t know either. The village doctor stood silently to one side. He was just a village doctor who could handle a headache or fever, not severe cases like this. He had no confidence.
Fighting with the Grim Reaper for a life was not something ordinary people could do.
Su Shu’s expression was grave. No one else could understand her feelings. This sudden crisis had, both spiritually and physically, pulled her back to her previous life in the Apocalypse. The experiences of two lifetimes unexpectedly overlapped, leaving her feeling extremely unsettled.
She knew all too well that an apocalyptic disaster was inevitable, but still she was unwilling to accept the arrival of a calamity that devoured lives without spitting out the bones.
She hadn’t been reborn for long, yet she had started to see people falling before her. Perhaps the person who had given her a hot sweet potato only yesterday was now separated forever by life and death. That resentment, unwillingness, and anger towards a fate that could not be altered erupted from deep within her chest, lodged in her throat—impossible to cough up, impossible to swallow, leaving her miserably choked up.
She had already taken out all the medicine in her space, but it was useless. The small reserve was a drop in the ocean compared to the sudden disaster.
Shuanzi’s wife was not yet dead, but under the current circumstances, with no medicine, no doctor, and no way to transport her, what difference was there between her state and waiting for death?
To merely watch someone die because nothing could be done, was too cruel.
Besides, everyone’s mental state was unstable. Continuing to wait, unable to provide aid and forced to succumb to death, would instill even more fear in those who remained alive.
Su Shu understood this feeling all too well. When there was no hope for life, what might happen was unpredictable.
She remembered her space was quite special and wondered if she could find something useful inside, even if it were just something to keep Shuanzi’s wife alive.
But with everyone watching, how could she slip away to search inside it?
