On the morning of April 30, Liu Kai was unusually dejected.

I got up early, washed up, and went downstairs to get my car.

Although he was no longer in the mood to go to work, he had to make a trip to the finance office to sign and confirm the advance payment of his salary and bonus.

Just as I was leaving the residential area, I saw Xu Huan, the fat guy, who had taken the day off.

He was driving his flashy yellow Porsche, with his parents and girlfriend in tow.

It looks like they're heading to the airport, preparing for a direct flight to the Maldives.

As the car passed Liu Kai, the fat man rolled down his window.

He glanced at his cheap car with disdain, then drove off with a victor's smile.

Liu Kai's face was also beaming with a bright smile: "Since you're leaving, I won't be polite with the drone!"

As Liu Kai drove past the park, he saw office workers and students rushing around just like him.

I saw retired elderly men and women taking advantage of the cool weather to get up early for morning exercise.

I also saw toddlers learning to speak, their big, dark eyes curiously observing the world.

A perfectly ordinary scene of everyday life in the city.

Unfortunately, all of this will soon be gone.

Even Liu Kai, who had experienced that hellish tragedy once, found it hard to bear thinking about it again.

He quickly arrived at the tobacco bureau, parked his car, and then took a few steps up the stairs to the finance office on the second floor.

The accountant, Sister Wang, was focused intently on her bookkeeping, her head bowed.

Her two-year-old son was obediently lying on the chair next to her, drawing.

Upon seeing Liu Kai arrive, she beamed with an innocent smile and called out in a childish voice, "Uncle Liu."

Ms. Wang only came to her senses after hearing her son speak.

"Come in quickly, Xiao Liu. It's not even work time yet, why are you here so early?"

"Hehe, yes, Sister Wang, we just need the money urgently."

Sister Wang's expression shifted slightly upon hearing this.

He pushed a stack of documents in front of Liu Kai, gesturing for him to sign them.

Just as Liu Kai was concentrating on signing, Sister Wang finally couldn't help but speak up.

"Xiao Liu, I heard from Director Chen that you received an advance on your salary because your blind date asked for a bride price?"

Helpless, Liu Kai made up a story: "Um, it's like this."

Sister Wang immediately lowered her voice.

"Don't be offended if I say something, but that Lin Xiaorou you went on a blind date with... has some issues with her conduct. I heard she's dating several people at the same time. You're a young person who hasn't been working for many years and it's not easy to earn money, so be careful not to get scammed."

Upon hearing this, Liu Kai felt a rare surge of warmth in his heart.

He now knew, of course, that Lin Xiaorou had a problem.

It's mainly her innocent face and slightly aloof temperament that are very deceptive.

She was also a teacher at a municipal junior high school, and Liu Kai had always thought she was a good girl suitable for marriage.

I've heard some rumors about Lin Xiaorou, but I always thought they were just malicious gossip.

Liu Kai's preconceived trust in Lin Xiaorou caused him to overlook the old saying: "There's no smoke without fire."

After the apocalypse, Lin Xiaorou, who lived in the municipal high school dormitory, strangely appeared in their neighborhood.

She claimed to be staying at her best friend's house, which excited Liu Kai for a long time: he could finally spend every day with the "good girl".

But now that she's calmed down and thought about it carefully, the villa she lived in was definitely not her "best friend's" house!

The homeowners were clearly twin brothers in their forties, who were local contractors in Fenghai City who worked on earthwork projects.

Some people who look innocent are actually quite promiscuous in private.

He almost vomited his dinner from the night before just imagining the three of them making love.

Liu Kai was naturally not annoyed by the kind reminder from Sister Wang, the finance manager.

She simply smiled and said, "Don't worry, sister, I know what I'm doing."

"You, sigh..."

After signing the stack of documents, Liu Kai glanced at Wang Dajie's son and pondered for a moment.

They weren't in a hurry to leave, so they moved a stool over and sat down.

"By the way, Sister Wang, your husband is coming back from out of town for the May Day holiday, right?"

Sister Wang smiled happily on her slightly plump face: "Yes, I'll be coming back for about half a month during the May Day holiday."

Liu Kai lowered his voice and said mysteriously, "Yesterday, a classmate of mine who does biological research in the United States called me. He said that the virus from 24 years ago seems to be breaking out again recently. I suggest you stock up on supplies at home."

"The virus from 24 years ago?"

Sister Wang was startled by his words and quickly gestured for him to be quiet: "Don't talk nonsense! If someone with ulterior motives hears you, you'll be in trouble if they accuse you of spreading rumors."

Liu Kai didn't speak, he just stared intently at her.

Seeing the serious expression on Liu Kai's face, Sister Wang suddenly thought of something.

"Tell me the truth, you're not overspending your salary to pay for the bride price, but to hoard things, right?"

Liu Kai was surprised; he hadn't expected Sister Wang to be so clever.

He neither admitted nor denied it, just laughed it off: "Hey, better safe than sorry, especially since you have kids at home."

Without lingering any longer, he dashed out of the finance office.

Sister Wang stared thoughtfully at Liu Kai's retreating figure.

She then looked at her innocent-looking son beside her, as if she had made up her mind.

...

As Liu Kai left the finance office, his face gradually darkened.

The reminder from Sister Wang, the finance manager, brought back the painful memories of his dying moments.

If Lin Xiaorou was just deceiving him emotionally, there's no need to retaliate against her.

Unfortunately, the things this vicious woman and the butcher's lover did were outrageous and abhorrent.

Before killing Liu Kai, he had lured and killed countless people.

He had heard the legends of "vegetable people" and "two-legged sheep."

But when something like this happens to someone around you, or even to yourself, it's always hard to accept.

Liu Kai would rather smash his head against a wall and die than eat even a bite of human flesh.

It's unclear whether that slaughtering team has any other members.

There's not much to say, though; she and her butcher lover both have to die!

He didn't want to easily kill these scoundrels with a single shot; instead, he wanted them to experience the most exciting hope first.

Let them fall into the deepest despair, and then kill them to vent his hatred.

However, he would not risk his life; staying behind the scenes is the best option.

Liu Kai's expression was twisted and crazed, and his fists trembled slightly with excitement.

Because a very effective torture plan had just come to mind: a cunning rabbit with three burrows + luring the enemy into a trap.

Since he had decided to stay in that doomsday fortress, he couldn't let his small 60-square-meter apartment go to waste.

All you need to do is deliberately let Lin Xiaorou know that there are many supplies at home.

When food becomes scarce, she will definitely come knocking on our door with her people.

When the time comes, these people will find that all the "supplies" piled up in the house are empty boxes.

But when they moved the last box, they were met with a bomb.

Surprise, motherfucker!

Even if he couldn't get a bomb in Fenghai City, it wouldn't be difficult for Liu Kai, who majored in chemistry.

One part sulfur, two parts nitrates, three parts charcoal, add a little white sugar, and you have a big Ivan.
