The world suddenly swept into a storm, an unknown virus infected many people, the fatality rate was extremely high, and the entire world map seemed to have become a chessboard, and human beings were manipulated as black and white chess pieces.

A bus on Sunset Avenue in Yecheng had just entered the intersection, and the driver's heart suddenly felt some tingling, and he gently pounded his mouth, trying to relieve it, but his heart seemed to be pricked with a needle, the pain was in the muscles, and his movements were tantamount to scratching his boots.

Suddenly, the stinging pain intensified, expanding from one point to the entire chest, the driver's face was pale, he couldn't breathe, his hand was out of sight, he hurriedly wanted to step on the brakes, but his feet were no longer strong.

"......Rattle" The piercing and long sound of brakes, the front of the car rushed into the intersection of the downtown area, and countless cars were rushing from the opposite intersection.

With a loud bang, the bus was knocked over entirely, and several passengers were even thrown out of the window.

At the same time as the huge impact sounded, on the construction site not far away, the crane had just dropped dozens of tons of steel pipes in mid-air, and the crane driver suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest, he screamed, covered his chest with both hands, curled up, and fell crooked in the narrow carriage, his whole body convulsed.

With a "whoosh", hundreds of steel pipes slipped down, and the dull sound of breaking the air went straight down, dozens of employees were slowly raising their heads, and with a bang, the splashed minced meat was like a crushed tomato, and the warm flesh was as viscous as the squeezed tomato sauce.

……

Mu Jian lay on the bed and fell asleep, the alarm clock next to him rang at 7 o'clock, he covered his ears, his head slammed into the quilt, dripping drip, the alarm clock kept ringing, he shook his hand and knocked over the alarm clock, and continued to lie on the bed.

Outside the house, federal government emergency vehicles sounded the alarm, and almost every day at this time, rescue vehicles drove into various neighborhoods, and in order to control the spread of the virus, they were vaccinating residents for free.

Except for the convenient lunch box on the floor of Mu Jian's room, there were clothes thrown everywhere, and suddenly, he woke up violently, picked up the overturned alarm clock, it was broken, and if he was late today, he would be expelled. He grabbed the clothes on the ground, put them on his body, thrust his feet into the shriveled and faded leather shoes, exposed his heels, lifted his pants and rushed out of the room, the zippers of Mu Jane's pants were only half pulled.

Running past the snack bar, he grabbed a few buns and stuffed them into his mouth, and ran to the street, where several police cars and ambulances were parked, the police pulled up the barrier and blocked the road, and the crowd of onlookers blocked the intersection, he was shocked, something happened?

Mu Jian stopped and looked at his watch, oh no, he could have reached it by crossing this intersection, but now he had to take a detour. There was an alley next to it, and he ran over it, hoping to catch up.

In the depths of the alley, a stray little black dog howled twice at Mu Jian, and he turned his head to look, and the little black dog sat on the ground and wagged its tail. It was soaking wet, and its body was shaking. It licked the blackened bones on the ground with its tongue, and the poor fellow, Mu Jian crouched down and put the last meat bun in his mouth in front of the puppy, "Eat it, poor ghost." The puppy's two small paws pressed the meat bun, biting little by little, Mu Jian touched the puppy's fluffy little head, suddenly relieved, looked at the table below, oops, the clock pointed to nine o'clock, but there are still two streets away from the office building!

He let go of his shoulders and let out a long sigh, as if the ropes that bound him were loose, and it seemed that the job was lost, but he was finally free...... A yawn came up, and he glanced up to see that the sky above the alley was gray and narrow. Since it's irreparable, I'd better go home and catch up on sleep.

As soon as he got home, he didn't bother to take off his shoes and fell directly on the bed, snoring until the night.

The phone rang, Mu Jian saw that it was already dark, and immediately sat up from the bed, ouch, there is a class reunion tonight, how did I forget!

There was a scolding on the phone, "Lazy worm, what are you doing...... That's up to you...... Hurry up! ”

At night, in the 20-square-meter private room of the hotel, the crystal chandelier on the ceiling is lit up with yellow light, and the fragrant dishes are placed on the white tablecloth. Mu Jian pushed the door in, and the old classmates at the table looked at it together, "Hey, Xiao Jane, when will you be able to change your late-sighted stinky problem, come and ......" Li Miao picked up the glass, put her arms around his shoulder, and handed the wine glass to Mu Jian's mouth, "Punish a glass of wine first." ”

Mu Jian took the wine glass, closed his eyes, and poured his head, "Tsk...... Sorry guys. He looked around, "Hey, why didn't Lao Zhang and Lao Li come.......?"

"I don't know, I said it before, but no one answered the phone this morning, hey, I guess something was delayed." Li Miao stood up and stretched out her arms, "Come on...... Let's ...... brothers," he picked up the largest cup and swallowed it with his head up.

As soon as the wine glass was put down, the mobile phone in Mu Jian's pocket rang again, and almost at the same time, Li Miao's mobile phone next to him also rang.

It's a text message, Mu Jian clicked on it and looked at it, "Death List ......" Huh? What kind of thing is this, he took a closer look, and there was actually his name on it, "Death on December 24th!" "This, who's doing this prank!

There are a few lines at the end of the text message, "Mu Zixin, Ye Zu, Li Xing, and Zhang Zhang died on the 23rd, and Li Miao died on the 24th...... "Hey, Lao Li and Lao Zhang, who didn't come, are actually on the list!" This...... Who sent this boring text message?

As soon as he looked up, Mu Zixin, who was sitting opposite him, looked over, the two glanced at each other, Li Miao next to him looked down at his mobile phone, "Cut, boring ......" The dazzling crystal lamp above his head was a little dazzling, and for some reason it suddenly became a little cold in the private room.

Everyone continued to drink, and the boring text message was left behind by Mu Jian.

Suddenly, Mu Zixin on the opposite side leaned back with a "snap", covered his chest with his hands, and fell to the ground.

"Yo, Mu Zixin, look at your ...... drinking" Li Miao stood up, ready to walk over to help him, "You ......"

Mu Zixin fell to the ground and convulsed, his limbs shrunk together, and his legs kicked wildly. The old classmates present were all shocked, "Quick, call 120, something happened!" ”

"He, didn't he drink too much?" Mu Jian moved over and took a look.

Li Miao squatted down, and just wanted to help Mu Zixin up, but the whole person stopped, "Mu Zixin...... Mu Zixin! ”

Mu Zixin is dead!

Mu Jian's scalp is numb, today is exactly the 23rd, and Mu Zixin is dead! That text message...... Is this a coincidence?

There are ...... on the list Ye Zu, he hurriedly looked for Ye Zu in the crowd.

Suddenly, with a loud "ah", Ye Zu covered his chest, his facial features were twisted together, he fell to the ground with a "bang", his legs were pulled on the ground, and green tendons bulged out from his red neck.

Ye Zu is also dead!

Mu Jian looked at the text message in his hand, is this still a coincidence? Lao Zhang and Lao Li, they won't ...... He shook his head, tomorrow is the 24th, and it will be my turn and ...... Li Miao!

There was a commotion in the private room, and when he raised his eyes, he found that Li Miao was staring at him with big eyes.

"You, you received that too...... Sms? Li Miao walked over and grabbed his shoulder tightly with one hand.

"Hmm." Mu Jian stared at him, her legs were a little stiff, tomorrow on the 24th, this list seems to have arranged everything, and we can only be at the mercy? No...... Just a coincidence......

"Jingle bell ......" Li Miao was startled and connected the phone, "Hey...... Lao Zhang, why is it only now...... Oh, you're Lao Zhang's lover, hello, yes, I called this morning, what...... Both of them?! Li Miao was stunned, he frowned and his eyes widened.

"What's wrong?" Mu Jianxin brought it up.

"Lao Zhang...... I had a heart attack while driving the bus this morning and died...... Li Miao paused word by word, "and ...... Lao Li, ...... on the crane this morning"

"How is that possible?" Mu Jian's heart chuckled, the list was really ......

Li Miao stared at the text message on her phone, "The people on this list are all dead, and it's our turn next!" ”

"Let's go to my house first." Mu Jian lost her mind, and for the first time felt that her heart was being dragged in someone else's hands, and as long as the time came, she would be pinched and exploded at any time!

There was a cold wind outside, and it was dark. There was no one in the square opposite, perhaps because of the cold. The tall street lamps in the shape of weeping willows shone on the deserted square, and the lattice-shaped marble floor looked like a giant chessboard, but today there is not a single chess piece.

Mu Jian took Li Miao home.

A simple one-bedroom living room, the sofa in the living room has become a temporary wardrobe, all kinds of clothes are piled on it, the two of them are sitting on the sofa full of clothes, Mu Jian looked at Li Miao on the side, the cool breeze blew in from the balcony of the living room, and the heads of both were covered with beads of sweat.

"We're really going to die...... Li Miao clenched his fists, "Why ......" he stared at Mu Jian.

"What the hell is going on with this text message?" Mu Jian looked at the text message, and his heart, which had never been calm, jumped wildly again.

Li Miao stared at the mobile phone screen in a daze, the screen light reflected his pale and dull face, and suddenly he frowned, gritted his teeth, and his cheeks bulged, "Why me...... Why ......" he muttered to himself, suddenly stood up, clutching his phone, "Damn ......"

With a "snap", he threw the phone to the ground, and the phone immediately fell apart, "Bastard, I won't die...... No, it won't. He stepped on the rotten phone, quickly lifted it up, and stepped down hard, "Bang bang!" Tossing back and forth a few times, his body was a little hot, he pulled the collar and tore it, "Come on, there is a kind of ...... that will take me now"

"Old Yang...... You calm down......." Mu Jian looked at the angry Li Miao, her heart was like the sea at high tide, the waves hit the reef and shattered.

A person knows the exact date of his death, and there is no break at all, who can be calm. Mu Jian's body was trembling, and it felt like a game of chess, no matter where the chess pieces in his hand landed, the next step was a dead move.

"Knock knock", suddenly there was a knock on the door, Mu Jian and Li Miao on the sofa were stunned, Mu Jian stood up, leaned in front of the cat's eyes and took a look, there was a man standing outside, wearing a pair of gold wire glasses, and a big black suitcase at his feet, who is this person?

"Is the wooden tablet at home? Let's talk...... About that list. The man with glasses pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose.

"You are?" Mu Jian opened the door and looked the man in his eyes up and down.

"My name is Zhang Shuo, and I have also received the list, and I know how to escape the list." The man with glasses sat down on the sofa, put the big black suitcase at his feet, unzipped it, and a man with his hands and feet tied rolled out and lay on the ground without moving.

"Who is this? What's going on? Mu Jian was so frightened that she stepped back, what the hell did this guy want to do?

"This ...... What method? Li Miao glanced at the man lying on the ground, raised his head and stared straight at Zhang Shuo.

"Killing someone will allow you to get away with the list...... At least a week......" Zhang Shuo took out a knife from his pocket and rested it on the coffee table, "You'd better hurry up before midnight, there is not much time left before the 24th." He raised his hand and looked at his watch, "After midnight, you will die at any time!" ”

"Murder, why?" Li Miao was stunned.

"Because I killed, I survived!" Zhang Shuo spread his hands and raised his eyebrows.

"Then, what about in a week......" Li Miao picked up the knife.

"Then kill!" Zhang Shuo pushed down the frame, "It's as simple as that......"

Li Miao squatted down and raised the knife in his hand, "Who is this person?" ”

"It's just a bum." Zhang Shuo pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose.

"Lao Yang, you're crazy, it's over if you kill someone, do you really believe what he said......" Mu Jian grabbed Li Miao's hand holding the knife.

"If I don't kill, I'm really finished...... You get out of the way! Li Miao pushed Mu Jian away, "If you stop me, you're killing me!" ”

"I, I need to call the police." Mu Jian hurriedly took out his mobile phone, how can he kill someone!

Li Miao snatched it over, "What are you doing......

"You believe him......" cried Mu Jane.

"No, I just don't want to die!" Li Miao threw the phone to the ground and stepped on it hard.

Li Miao's hand holding the knife trembled a little, and the homeless man was lying on the ground breathing evenly, and the tip of the knife hung above his chest.

Li Miao frowned, and the knife did not move for a long time.

Mu Jian stood next to the man, frowning and looking at Li Miao without saying a word, how could killing someone prolong his life, this was simply ...... We have to stop this farce, and this Zhang Shuo doesn't look like a good person no matter how you look at it.

Zhang Shuo looked at the watch in his hand, pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and squinted his eyes.

Time flies, and it's still a few minutes until the wee hours of the morning.

Mu Jian could feel his chest turn into a thin layer of paper, and his heart was clinging to it, ready to pop out at any moment.

"Man, you've got to hurry." Zhang Shuo patted Li Miao on the back.

The "Ding Dong" clock is ringing.

The three of them were startled at the same time and froze.

"Ahh Li Miao screamed, clutched her chest and fell to the ground, her body began to twitch, her limbs curled up, and her whole body shook at a high frequency.

"Quick, save him......" Mu Jian shouted, this list really can't be hidden?

Zhang Shuo held Li Miao's hand, "Kill him, quick!" Li Miao twitched violently, and her facial features twisted together.

Zhang Shuo tightly grasped Li Miao's hand holding the knife, aimed it at the man's chest, and thrust it down, and warm blood splashed out.

Li Miao gradually stopped convulsions, lay on the ground and took a deep breath, he clutched his chest, "I was saved......"

"I'm sorry, I almost ......" Mu Jian picked up Li Miao and nodded at Zhang Shuo.

"Let's go, we need to go somewhere." Zhang Shuo kicked the homeless man who was twitching on the ground, "It's not dead yet." The hilt of the knife was exposed outside his chest, and he stepped on it, and with a twist of his foot, the whole hilt was inserted.

"Where?" Mu Jian asked.

"Go to a place where there are a lot of people, unless you just want to live a week." Zhang Shuo pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose.

They drove to a remote village "where there were hundreds of ...... people"

"How can you kill so many people?" Li Miao rubbed her hands.

"Just the three of us?" Mu Jian swallowed his saliva, so many people will definitely be killed!

The car stopped on the side of the road, the three of them got out of the car, Zhang Shuo took out a canvas bag from the trunk, and pulled it away with a "bang", "Take it, don't lose your life." Zhang Shuo took out three pistols and three machetes, "There are not many bullets, save a little, except for the three of us, there are other people who have escaped the list, here is a piece of fat meat......" He pulled the bolt of the gun, and the smile was still on the corner of his mouth.

"Just a few bullets, how can it be enough!" Li Miao stared at Zhang Shuo, quickly pushed the magazine into the magazine, and pulled the bolt. He tore a piece of clothing from his shoulder and tied the machete tightly to his other hand.

"Why do you have to be here?" Mu Jian pushed away the gun and knife handed over by Zhang Shuo, how could it be so easy, whether to kill or be killed...... This man is absolutely hiding something!

"This place, and the custom of cannibalism, is simply a primitive society, unless you can find a more suitable place." Zhang Shuo handed over the weapon, "Don't hesitate if you want to live." ”

Mu Jian weighed the gun and knife in his hand, looked at Li Miao with a smile on the corner of his mouth, he could only try, and looked up at the dark night sky, there was not a single star.

Mu Jian and his party stood at the entrance of the village, the screams were wrapped in the dark cold wind drifting over, looking ahead, there was no light, the thick darkness restrained Mu Jian, he didn't dare to take a step, he always felt that there were countless sharp steel wires around him, and he would be cut into pieces of meat when he touched it.

The village is small, and a two-person wide path divides the village into two halves, with mud houses and straw huts tied crookedly on both sides of the path. Entering the village, there were figures flashing everywhere, and occasionally a few gunshots rang out, and soon it was quiet again. The three of them walked forward slowly, the mud houses on both sides were pitch black, and the doors were all locked.

"Click", Mu Jian fell, touched his hand, it was a person who was broken into two sections, he was so frightened that he rolled to the side, his back touched something, turned his head to see that it was a head, he shouted, Li Miao on the side hurriedly covered his mouth, "Don't call ......"

Mu Jian slowly got up, his eyes finally adjusted to the darkness, the whole village path was dyed black, and the corpses were placed on the ground every now and then, and he gasped. At this moment, several dark shadows in the distance trotted towards them.

Several black shadows rushed closer, Mu Jian saw it clearly, and stepped back violently, a man with a broken arm rushed over with a machete, Li Miao raised his gun, "Boom! , a shot shot shot him in the head, Mu Jian was stunned, holding the gun and trembling. Another person pounced, Zhang Shuo pulled the trigger, the man fell to the ground, lying on the ground and moaning, Zhang Shuo hurriedly ran over, slashed down according to the neck, pulled out the knife and rubbed it twice on the corpse.

"Don't hesitate." He looked at the wooden tablet standing still.

A few more black shadows came out of the corner next to them, and a few gunshots rang out. The group had guns and were running in their direction.

"Quick, find a place to hide, there are many of them, there are ......" Zhang Shuo pulled Mu Jian and Li Miao into an alley behind him, and walked in for a while.

"Climb in through the window." Li Miao saw a window, put her hands on the edge, and shot her body in.

Mu Jian heard the sound of hurried footsteps behind him, and threw himself on the windowsill for a while, and Li Miao pulled him in.

Li Miao and Zhang Shuo poked their heads out of the windowsill and put their fingers on the trigger.

"There are a lot of them, let's not take any chances." Mu Jian crouched under the window with her back against the wall, waiting for the group to go before going out.

"I'll take a look over there." Zhang Shuo lowered his voice and walked towards the other side of the room with his waist bent.

"Stick to my back, there's a response." Li Miao said.

There was no light in the dark sky, there was silence outside, and the footsteps were gone.

"Why hasn't Zhang Shuo come back yet?" The wooden slip was attached to Li Miao's back, and the back was wet.

"It's okay, maybe I'll be back in a moment." Li Miao said.

Mu Jian held the gun in both hands and stared around.

"Bang dang!" With a bang, the door was slammed open, and four or five sweaters waved knives, "There are people ....... there"

"Oops, found out, why are there so many people!" Li Miao pulled the trigger violently towards the door.

"Bang" a few times, the one who rushed in front fell to the ground, and the one behind rushed up one after another.

Click, click......

"Bastard, no bullets!" As soon as Li Miao pulled out the knife, an axe was chopped down on the head, and with a "bang", his hand holding the knife was numb, "Help......

Mu Jian pulled out the knife, stabbed forward, put down one, was stunned, a man pounced, pushed him to the ground, the man raised a black thing upward, Mu Jian twisted to the side, "clang", a pit was smashed on the ground, he was frightened, pointed the gun at the man, pulled the trigger hard, "pop" a few times, the man fell.

"Ah" shouted, Mu Jian turned his head to see that an axe had slashed into Li Miao's neck, and he rolled to the ground without moving.

As soon as Mu Jian came back to his senses, three big men appeared in front of him, they surrounded him, raised the weapons in his hands, Mu Jian turned to one side, raised his hand, pulled the trigger, the gun rang out, a sharp pain came from behind, and an axe was inserted in his back, he was just about to turn around, and suddenly there was a loud bang in his head.

Mu Jian's head burst open, and white-red juice splashed out and spilled all over the ground, and after a while, the strong man retreated, and only two "corpses" were left in the room.

Zhang Shuo made an early detour to the other end of the village, where the helicopter was ready, he climbed into the plane, took out the phone, "The mission is complete, we are on the way back......

On the other end of the phone, in the living room of the mansion on the edge of the cliff, a middle-aged man with brown hair sat on a leather sofa, facing the floor-to-ceiling window, enjoying the sparkling night view of the sea, while playing chess, "Well done......" He waved his hand at the man opposite, who immediately got up and left the office, leaving an unfinished chess table.

He picked up a bronze coin-like badge from the table, flipped it between his fingers on the back of his hand, hung up the phone, and immediately dialed another number, "...... How are the vaccination preparations for Moon City tomorrow, and how long is the cycle this time? ”

"5 years...... It's too long...... Remind the old guys in the research department that it was shortened to 1 year for me. The middle-aged man squinted his eyes, "Don't mention the money to me......" His fingers rubbed the badge vigorously, and with a "snap" sound, he slapped it on the table. On the table was an unfolded map of Moon City, with red circles drawn on it. He picked up the bronze badge and placed it in a circle, on which Zhang Shuo was engraved.

At the same time as the phone hung up, Zhang Shuo turned on the computer on the plane, and the screen displayed the list of vaccinations in the past five years, most of which had turned black, and there were not many white ones, and there were very few red ones.

Clicking on the few red lists, Zhang Shuo touched the golden ring on his middle finger, and a small protrusion immediately appeared on the side of the palm of his hand, and the neurotoxin in it would make people twitch instantly, although the effect of the medicine was only for a few minutes.

Although this supposedly 100% lethal vaccine is powerful, it is inevitable that there will be people with physical abnormalities, and it must not be wasted on this small group of people, in addition to taking their blood samples, there is also a plan.

Three years ago, in the conference hall on the 100th floor, the brown-haired young man frowned, "The plan of the organization has been proposed for a while, but no good way has been found to implement it, what do you think?" ”

"War ......"

"Terrorist ......"

"War...... No, we can't control a large-scale war, and we can't achieve the effect of local wars, is there anything better? The young man's brow furrowed.

"Vaccine ......"

"Whoever allowed you to speak, you don't have a place to speak, get out." An old man shouted.

"Huh?" The young man waved his hand to stop the old man's words, he raised his eyebrows, and looked intently at the person who had just spoken, and the whole conference room fell silent, "You go on. ”

"We can achieve this goal by first sowing the xenovirus, and then having the federal government of Quiton, which is under the control of the organization, use the vaccine on the infected people, and then promote it to other federations, and then use genetic drugs to stimulate the latent vaccine."

"What if the vaccine is immunized? The human immune system should not be underestimated. The corners of the young man's mouth rose slightly.

"We can implement a death list plan, or we can also strain our vaccine ...... by the way"

"Oh? Continue to ......" The man finished the plan and flipped through the two pages.

"Let those who are immunized receive a list of people they know in addition to their own names and dates of death, and as soon as those who are familiar die, they will believe the list, and then send them to remote places and plan a massacre, firstly, to save money, secondly, to solve the troubles, so that we can collect samples, and public opinion will only see this as a simple genocide......"

"Can the vaccine be accurate to what day?"

"No problem, the error is no more than 1 hour......"

"What's your name......"

"My name is Zhang Shuo."

At this moment, on the plane, Zhang Shuo pressed the send button, and the three death lists were sent, he looked at the somewhat dazzling gold ring, if the target still didn't believe in this list, as long as he patted him at around zero o'clock, as soon as this neurotoxin entered the body, anyone would believe that killing people would prolong life!

Looking at the pitch-black village below, Zhang Shuo grinned and touched the bronze badge pinned to his chest, this time he could be promoted again.

In the night, Li Miao, who had a knife across his neck, moved, and the severe pain continued to invade his brain, and he turned out to be a fish that slipped through the net!
