Quick Transmigration and Childbirth: The Target is Not Human

Two years later—

Due to work commitments, Xia Yangyang was unable to return to her hometown to reunite with her parents on Chinese New Year.

Winter days are short, and Xia Yangyang only worked a little overtime before it was completely dark.

She stretched at her desk, surrounded by colleagues who were also working overtime during the Lunar New Year holiday. As they left, they waved goodbye and wished her a happy new year in advance.

Xia Yangyang, still leaning back in her office chair, smiled brightly: "Happy New Year."

This was her first time celebrating the Lunar New Year in a different dimension.

Although there was absolutely no festive atmosphere.

She turned off her computer, put her water bottle and phone charger in her bag, put on her down jacket, and wrapped a scarf around her neck several times. As soon as she touched her phone, the screen lit up.

There were three consecutive WeChat messages.

Jiang Yan: [Are you off work yet? I had a fight with my family and got kicked out, sob sob! *crying*]

Jiang Yan: [Kind-hearted beautiful lady, could you please take in a poor homeless person for our New Year's Eve dinner? I know a Chinese restaurant that's still open, let's go together~ It's on me! Cute.jpg Heart.jpg]

Jiang Yan: [I'll pick you up downstairs at your company! Rose.jpg]

He has a stable job, excellent physique and appearance, has his own savings to buy a car and a house, his parents both have pensions, and he has impeccable family background with three generations of Party members in his family...

If it weren't for the mission, Xia Yangyang would have been tempted by Jiang Yan's offer.

But she clearly understood that since she came into this world, apart from the mission target, all other beautiful things were just illusions.

Over the past two years, she had come to understand Jiang Yan's feelings for her.

She had also subtly indicated that she was against marriage and might never date, but he just said it was perfect timing. He was also annoyed because his family was pressuring him to get married every day.

She didn't even have a chance to refuse.

The two of them went back and forth under the guise of friendship, but they watched as a fresh and tender young girl was being wasted away and turned into an old cucumber.

Xia Yangyang hesitated for a moment, thinking that perhaps she would have a chance to confront him tonight.

She tapped her fingers on the keyboard for a long time.

0.o: [Okay, let's do it together.]

As she entered the elevator, she was typing on a keyboard, with Bluetooth headphones in her ears, playing the latest novel she was following, "Quick Transmigration and Childbirth: The Target is Not Human".

Because the elevator signal was poor, the message she sent kept spinning, so she kept looking at her phone and didn't notice that there was someone else in the corner of the elevator.

The man extended a large hand from behind her, his hand wearing a black glove.

He said in a broken voice, "Hello, let's eat, New Year's Eve dinner together."

The sound didn't seem to be spoken from a human mouth; it was more like each word was squeezed out from the vocal cords.

Xia Yangyang neither heard nor saw it.

As a red exclamation mark appeared indicating that the message had failed to be sent, she unconsciously clicked her tongue.

The tall figure behind him trembled.

He lowered his head and silently withdrew his outstretched hand, hiding it behind his back.

The elevator stopped briefly on the fifth floor. The elevator doors opened, but no one got on. The entire fifth floor was dark and gloomy.

She remembered that the fifth floor was the technical department, and the people in the technical department took their annual leave almost half a month earlier than them, so how could there be anyone there at this time?

Xia Yangyang unconsciously swallowed and quickly pressed the close button twice.

She breathed a sigh of relief after the elevator doors closed, and was about to continue sending messages when, out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of a dark figure reflected in the elevator doors.

At that moment, Xia Yangyang shuddered.

While still alive, I experienced the feeling of sudden cardiac arrest.

When did he...when did he come in? Was he just on the fifth floor? There's clearly no one on the fifth floor.

Xia Yangyang's palms were sweating. She moved to the diagonal corner furthest from the person and looked up to see the elevator descending to the 3rd floor.

For the first time, I felt that time spent in the elevator was terrifyingly long.

Actually, after being startled at first glance, she calmed down a little and regained her composure.

I took a closer look using the reflection from the elevator door.

The elevator lights were already dim, and the person was dressed in all black.

Not only was he wearing a hat, but he also wore a black mask. He was also incredibly tall, standing at about two meters.

People would rather believe it was a maintenance worker who dropped a black pillar there than believe it was a "person".

She probably didn't notice when she entered the elevator with her head down.

Yes, that's it.

Xia Yangyang comforted herself and silently turned off the audiobook and switched to a military anthem.

Believe that the power of red can defeat all evil.

"Ding—" The elevator had just arrived at the first floor when Xia Yangyang was about to rush out of the elevator.

But to her surprise, the man beside her was a step faster, rushing out like a blur, looking as if he had been frightened and fled in panic.

Xia Yangyang: "...?"

As Xia Yangyang stepped out of the elevator, she felt something sticky under her feet.

Looking up, I saw that the man had been brought out of the elevator, and where he had been standing, there was now a pool of black slime.

Xia Yangyang stared at the sticky residue on the sole of her shoe, remaining silent for a long while: [Was that... Xia Feimo?]

The system was eating dumplings and watching the Spring Festival Gala when it glanced at the locator: [Yeah.]

Xia Yangyang: [Why didn't you remind me?]

After she finished speaking, she chased after the man in the direction he had just left.

The system didn't even bother to lift its eyelids: [Stop chasing it, what's the point? When have you ever caught up? It just goes around like it always does, finding a manhole cover or a fire hydrant and disappearing inside. Where are you going to look for it?]

Xia Yangyang: [...]

It is true.

Xia Yangyang slowly stopped and stood still.

The streets were still bustling and lively during the Spring Festival, and on the big screens hanging on the buildings, celebrities were all wearing bright red sweaters.

Wearing bulky clothes in the dead of winter, she was already panting heavily after only a few steps.

White mist was exhaled from her mouth.

The heavy snow fell on her hair, and soon her nose and cheeks turned red from the cold.

System: [Sigh, I say, you shouldn't be angry about what happened back then. Have a proper talk with it, a proper two-way effort, but you've turned it into a chase where it's running away and you're chasing, and neither of you can escape.]

Xia Yangyang: [...I'm not angry anymore.]

*

To talk about this, we have to start from when Xia Yangyang was transferred from the intensive care unit to a regular ward.

Because she had just woken up, she was unaware that a year had passed, that the Glutton was dead, or that she had separated from Mr. Parasite's neuroblasts.

As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw a black, slippery thing that looked like a snake, carrying a warm, pulsating ball of flesh into its mouth.

The sensation was like long, thin bread worms crawling in my mouth; it was disgusting and inhumane.

She vomited right then and there.

But Xia Yangyang wasn't afraid, because she recognized the guy who was stuffing the strange thing into her mouth at a glance as Mr. Parasite.

Still gloating to herself, little brat, thinking she won't recognize her just because she changed into snakeskin?

Although she later learned that it was not a snake's head, but its body, which had been stretched beyond its original size due to devouring too many of its own kind.

Her memory was still stuck in Aoki High School, on the night she was stabbed by a glutton.

Although she knew she had woken up in the hospital, the sight of it still ignited a surge of anger within her. She grabbed the snake's head with both hands and yelled, "Xia Feimo! What did I tell you? What did you promise me?!"

"I've told you so many times to listen to me, and now look what happened! The mission failed! Gluttony has been enhanced! I almost died too! If I die, you won't live either!"

"What were you doing just now? Trying to murder me again? Let me tell you, dream on! I just don't understand. I've fed and clothed you, and even though you've squandered my life savings, I've never used my mental power to punish you even once! What have I done to wrong you that you hate me so much and are always thinking of taking revenge on me?!"

The parasite on the other side seemed very sad, and it made some hoarse sounds.

Yangyang, no, I didn't.

But it's no longer in her brain; she can't hear its explanation.

Moreover, its body is just a mass of soft, rotten nerve cells; it has no vocal cords and cannot speak.

But instead of getting a response from Mr. Parasite, Xia Yangyang became even angrier.

In her eyes, this is how it always expresses its rebellion through silence.

She's been hurt so badly, and he shows absolutely no remorse?!

Xia Yangyang wanted nothing more than to crush the snake's head and unleash a barrage of insults on it.

The snake's head kept shrinking back, almost to the floor.

But then Xia Yangyang's face suddenly changed, turning deathly pale. She turned her face away and vomited a mouthful of black blood onto the ground.

Although the doctor later said it was just blood and fluid accumulating in the stomach, and that vomiting it out would solve the problem.

But it terrified Mr. Parasite at the time.

He thought it was all his fault and blamed himself vehemently.

It shouldn't have been so eager to feed her its own neuroblasts as soon as she woke up.

It made so many serious mistakes that its lover loathed it and would certainly not like its neuroblasts.

So, while frantically running out to find Jiang Yan, it also picked up the "heart" that the parasite treasured most, which had fallen to the cold ground, and ran away.

Xia Yangyang wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and watched it run away. Suddenly, she felt like a character in a TV drama, hurt by a heartless man.

He uttered those harsh words: "Go ahead, you heartless bastard! Don't ever come back!"

She really, really didn't expect it.

That guy never appeared in front of me again after that.

It always lurks in some dark corner. As soon as she catches it, it escapes before she can even say a word.

She pursued him for a whole year! A whole year!

I'm so regretful.
