Chapter 0001: Trapped at Home
Qin An is Chinese New Year's Eve years old today, and at this time he is lying on the bed like a dead man.
There was a woman standing next to the bed, she was wearing a black women's professional suit, a white low-cut round-neck tights in the upper blouse, the shallow chest groove was sexy and sultry, the woman wore light makeup, and looked capable and indifferent.
She is Qin An's ex-wife, named Li Ying.
"The situation in the city is getting worse and worse, and the Internet says that the T-virus is global and has been epidemic in many countries, and now our country is not immune. My government friend secretly told me that Hanghai City was about to become a quarantine area, and I planned to evacuate this place."
Li Ying paused here when she said this, then sighed slightly and said:
"I admit it, I'm a money-worshipping woman, and I can't stick to you all the time!
I'm fed up worrying about the mortgage every month, and I'm fed up eating a bowl of beef noodles and thinking about whether to add an egg!
I chose a better life.
Cheng Gang has too many advantages compared to you, rich, handsome, young, responsible, he can give me what I want, and most importantly, he loves me!
So I chose to leave you, maybe it's mine, right?
Who knows! Life may be like this, maybe in your eyes I am not a good woman, but a woman like me can live a better life! ā
Qin An's body trembled slightly.
Li Ying did not stop but continued:
"I'll build yƬ you also leave Hanghai City, this build yƬ is very sincere!
But from what I know of you, you shouldn't be able to accept the blow that our divorce has dealt to you for a while.
So I don't think you will accept my advice and leave!
I have prepared a lot of things for you, rice, vegetables to store, water, medicine, candles, cigarettes, and some weapons for self-defense!
If you don't want to leave, just hide in your room and don't go out, this food is enough for you to live here for a year, I hope this will be over by then! ā
After Li Ying said this, she no longer lingered, turned around and left, with a tear in the corner of her eye.
And Qin An, who was lying on the bed, had been covering his head with a quilt, and the tears on his face at this time were like springs.
Seven years of emotion, with the arrival of the end times, also left like flowing water
Three months later, the once-bustling city of Hanghai has become a dead city.
The streets here are littered with zombies.
Such strange creatures were not peculiar in Qin An's eyes, as they were no different from the zombies in many post-apocalyptic works that he had seen before.
Hands and feet are stiff, bloodthirsty and ferocious, and soulless.
Qin An's home was on the eighteenth floor of the top floor of this apartment, and he was lying on the balcony at this time, holding a telescope and looking at the zombies on the street downstairs.
Living people are rare to see, most of them are eaten as food by these zombies, and some may be trapped in their homes just like themselves.
Qin An counted the things that Li Ying had prepared for her, there were really a lot, everything, and the two bedrooms with a combined area of more than seventy square meters were piled up.
Not to mention a year, it is estimated that two or three years without going out will be enough for him to eat.
Now that the whole city has been cut off from power and there is no network, the only thing that is fortunate is that water and natural gas can still be used, which keeps Qin An from starving to death.
A dull and lonely life can erase people's sadness, Qin An is like this, although the trauma caused by Li Ying's departure has not completely disappeared, it has been hidden in his heart.
In three months, he had recovered on his own, and at least now, he was thinking about how he should live!
There was a sudden sound on the balcony next door, and Qin An casually glanced at the corner of his eyes, and saw a man and a woman walking out of the room.
They are Qin An's neighbors, a couple, the man's name is Liu Tianyu, and the woman's name is Qin Xiaoyan.
There was a distance of more than four meters between the two balconies, which was not far, and Liu Tianyu waved his hand to greet Qin An.
There was a sneer on the corner of Qin An's mouth, and he ignored them.
Li Ying's derailment is directly related to the couple, the man named Cheng Gang is the boss of Qin Xiaoyan's company, a golden bachelor who is less than thirty years old, it was with the help of Qin Xiaoyan that he and Li Ying came together, and Li Ying finally chose to abandon himself.
Qin Xiaoyan and his wife used to look down on Qin An very much, so although they were neighbors before the end of the world, they almost never greeted each other, on the contrary, both of them were good friends with Li Ying, and they also thought that Qin An, who was mediocre-looking, was not worthy of Li Ying, who was good-looking.
And now, the way of the world has changed, and people will naturally change a little.
The only reason why Liu Tianyu took the initiative to greet Qin An so much was that the couple had no food.
Liu Tianyu's face was a little pale, he looked at Qin An, with a somewhat disgusting smile on his face, and said flatteringly: "Brother, did you listen to the radio today?" Hundreds of millions of people across the country have been infected, and as long as they are bitten by zombies, they will also become zombies, don't you say this is too scary! ā
Qin An ignored him and continued to lean on the balcony and look downstairs.
Liu Tianyu said: "Brother, I don't know when this disaster will pass, we are not as good as Xiaoying, I saw that when she left, I bought you a lot of food, I didn't understand it at the time, I didn't expect her to be so prescient!" You also know that we are running out of food, do you think you can sell me a little bit of the food you have prepared at home? ā
Qin An smiled coldly and said, "Okay, a bag of instant noodles is 500,000, take the money?" ā
Liu Tianyu's face turned even paler, and the smile that he had finally disguised was gone.
Qin Xiaoyan beside him turned red with anger, and suddenly said: "Although Xiaoying was introduced to Cheng Gang by me, cheating is also her own choice, you don't have the ability to keep your wife, why are you angry with us?" ā
Qin An's body trembled, and he suddenly turned his head and glared at Qin Xiaoyan angrily.
And Liu Tianyu hurriedly covered Qin Xiaoyan's mouth and said: "Qin An, don't be angry with her, you see that this is the situation now, anyway, we are also neighbors, you share us with food, it is used to save lives!" ā
Qin An didn't want to say more, he stared at the other side for a long time, and said coldly: "You guys, wait to starve to death!" ā
After speaking, he turned around and walked into the room, and Liu Tianyu's shout sounded in his ears: "Hey, Brother Qin An, don't go!" ā
Qin Xiaoyan seemed to be extraordinarily backbone, and she was saying, "Husband, don't beg him!" Big deal, let's rush out! ā
"Smack!" There was a crunch sound, which seemed to be the sound of a hand making contact with a face.
Then came Liu Tianyu's roar: "You woman with long hair and short knowledge, do you really want to starve to death?" Don't you see what happens to those who rush out and try to escape? They were all eaten alive by those zombies! ā
Qin An slowly closed the door, the sound outside became quieter, and he could faintly hear Liu Tianyu seemingly continuing to scold Qin Xiaoyan, while Qin Xiaoyan was crying in a low voice.
Qin An closed his eyes and took a deep breath, in fact, there was not so much hatred in his heart, only sadness.
Forget it, let it pass slowly over time.
Qin An got something to eat, looked at the watch, twelve o'clock at noon.
The lonely life tormented people's hearts, and Qin An began to toss himself, making himself sweat, making himself tired, and leaving him with no strength to think.
He started doing various exercises in the living room.
Push-ups, sit-ups, jogging, frog jumping.
Qin An has been doing indoor exercise for up to several hours every day for the past three months, which has made his body stronger day by day.
He is nearly 1.8 meters tall and weighs 140 pounds now, which is 40 pounds thinner than three months ago.
If he used to be a somewhat obese old man, it is difficult that now he can only be described as a strong and powerful young man.
Qin An knew that he had to make himself strong, because maybe one day he would have to go out and face those zombies outside.
When the needle pointed to six o'clock, Qin An finally collapsed and lay on the ground, he was so tired that he couldn't move, and finally couldn't even open his eyes, and fell asleep tiredly.
Midnight dreams come,
No matter how many years have passed since that scene, Qin An can't forget it.
That year, he had just been discharged from the army and arrived in a strange city like Hanghai, starting a new chapter in his life, when he was looking for a job in the human market, he met Li Ying for the first time, the dream was so real, Qin An could completely see all the expressions on Li Ying's face, cold, stubborn, and arrogant.
Suddenly, a hurried knock on the door and shouts woke Qin An up.
Qin An suddenly stood up from the ground, felt that his face was cold, raised his hand to wipe it, and actually cried in his dream.
Then, the knock on the door became more urgent, accompanied by the woman's shout: "Qin An, open the door, I beg you, open the door, save me!" Liu Tianyu is dead! He was bitten to death by the old king next door! ā
Qin An was slightly stunned, and then almost subconsciously rushed to the door, opened the security door inside and looked out.
Qin Xiaoyan was sticking her body hard to the metal fence door outside at this time, her face was full of tears!
When she saw Qin An, her eyes, which had been crying into a line, suddenly brightened, and she shouted: "Open the door!" Qin An, please open the door quickly! ā
Qin An frowned slightly, his eyes bypassed Qin Xiaoyan and looked behind her, a trace of moonlight shot into the corridor, in the corridor Liu Tianyu fell to the ground, and a walking corpse was lying on his body biting, bleeding all over the ground.
Turning his gaze back to Qin Xiaoyan, when he saw her frightened and helpless expression, Qin An sighed slightly, he didn't hesitate, opened the metal fence door, Qin Xiaoyan almost rushed into the room, and Qin An quickly closed the door.
Turning his head, he saw Qin Xiaoyan kneeling on the ground, crying loudly.
Qin An ignored her, turned around and sat on the sofa, picked up a bottle of mineral water, opened it and took a sip, feeling that the muscles on his body were sore.
Turning his gaze back on Qin Xiaoyan's body, Qin An sneered and said, "Let's talk about it, what's going on?" ā
