The Apocalypse:A Survivor's Sarcastic Guide Chapter 2

I still had surveillance cameras and peepholes to install. I was putting peepholes on all doors and surveillance cameras on all four sides of the exterior walls!

360-degree protection with no blind spots!

It took about two days total to complete all the villa reinforcements!

I was incredibly grateful to be wealthy. When zombies really came, I could move to the basement without worrying about crazy neighbors!

After finishing all this, I was exhausted. I casually scrolled through my phone—trending topics had exploded into bold!

WeChat group chats were constantly refreshing messages. Thank god I'd set them to do not disturb, or I'd be driven crazy!

Some airports and subways had been locked down. No one associated it with something as absurd as zombies. Everyone was discussing whether there was another pandemic.

Not surprising, really. Zombie news broke once a year. A few years ago there was also a big fuss, but it turned out people had been using a drug called "zombie bath salts"!

But I knew this time was different. In the earliest video, there were many disfigured faces. They were biting each other—one scene was almost identical to movies!

A man's face was torn apart, one eyeball gouged out and hanging from the socket with shredded flesh!

I'd wanted to save this video, but the poster deleted it quickly. I couldn't find it again!

"There's another pandemic, everyone please don't go out randomly. Our complex is already locked down!"

Opening my college group chat, I saw a message from the class president. He said he was in a major city—it was pretty serious!

"God, when will this end!"

"I've been sitting at home for over a year. Please, no more outbreaks!"

I typed a few words, wanting to guide them that this wasn't a simple pandemic, but thinking about it, I decided against it.

Otherwise someone might come seek refuge with me!

I'm not being selfish—in the apocalypse, bleeding hearts die first!

I monitored various news sources while eating watermelon. During this time, Lucky and Max came over for dog food.

After thoroughly petting the dogs, I contentedly brushed my teeth and went to sleep.

The next day, my phone exploded!

In just one night, River City had fallen! No one knew how the first zombie got infected!

I opened my phone to search for zombies—blank page. The webpage showed access denied.

At a time like this, they're still censoring everything online?

The next second, even the bloody videos sent in WeChat groups couldn't be viewed.

This serious?

I was shocked. Carefully, I lifted a corner of the curtain. Sunlight was blinding. I squinted to adjust.

Nothing outside. Everything as usual.
