Table of Contents | Character Guide Chapter 10 “About this ET.” An expert said, quoting the person in the video. “Since its head is so big, it should have a certain amount of IQ and be able to communicate! After so long, we’ve finally discovered aliens today. Humans are not alone in this universe!” “Isn’t this an alien?! ET is a creature from outer space that is friendly to humans! This creature attacks humans as soon as it lands and has a very strong tendency to attack!” The other expert obviously was opposed to the former expert’s delight. The TV then showed a video taken with a mobile phone by…

Table of Contents | Character Guide Chapter 9: Fu Shiwu had to say that Tang Xuhai was right. It was indeed possible that his workplace would still have unopened jugs of water. Organisations like them usually ordered 19-liter water jugs in bulk so that they could share among many different departments. The water station staff would then deliver a large amount of water jugs every time, and the departments would change their own water after the jug had been used up. The next time the water station came, they would exchange empty jugs with new ones. In his first two years working here, Fu Shiwu used to take on the…

Table of Contents | Character Guide Chapter 8 No one had taught them what to do when there were a lot of dead bodies around. Most people would be at a loss and avoid the bodies out of fear. But even if they thought that they would never step into here, they couldn’t bear being trapped in this building anymore and had to pull themselves together to walk through this floor full of corpses. Tang Xuhai also turned up, but he didn’t come close and just stood at the emergency exit, his whole body leaning on the door with a ridiculously relaxed posture. What Fu Shiwu was worried about wasn’t…

Table of Content | Character Guide Chapter 7 The spine-chilling experience in the afternoon made Fu Shiwu very hungry. Paying no mind to taking a shower or even changing clothes, he headed straight to the kitchen to tear up two packets of instant noodles, added two eggs, and gulped down the whole bowl while it was still steaming hot. After taking a shower and changing into a light-coloured striped shirt, Fu Shiwu left his apartment again. He cautiously walked around Green T-Shirt on the ground and pressed the electric bell at Tang Xuhai’s unit. At this moment, Tang Xuhai was applying an ice pack to his right calf. Hearing the…

Table of Content | Character Guide Chapter 6 Seeing Fu Shiwu follow after him, Green T-Shirt blatantly loosened up. Perhaps he wasn’t as bold as he claimed himself to be. “Shall we take the elevator directly to the 20th floor?” Green T-Shirt asked him. Fu Shiwu pushed his glasses and replied in a serious tone: “Okay.”  The two waited for a while for the door to open and walked into the empty elevator, after which Green T-Shirt directly pressed the ‘20’ button. “Once we reach there, let’s look for him floor by floor.” Green T-Shirt said. “Uhm.” Fu Shiwu nervously clenched the watermelon knife in his hand. Green T-Shirt tried…

Table of Content | Character Guide Chapter 5 This situation really made people go mad! Quarantine with warnings and being trapped without a care were two different things. Soon enough, someone went berserk and smashed the building’s main door in an attempt to knock it open. But the door was sealed tightly outside. Without professional tools, it was impossible to break open from inside. Safety nets were even installed on the balconies of the 1st floor and 2nd floor. If it was before, the residents would be so happy to have these sturdy nets, but now they became utterly distressed. “Let’s go out from the 3rd floor! We can try…

Table of Content | Character Guide Chapter 4 On the 5th day, it started to rain in Yun City. By this point, people with persistent high fever, vomiting and diarrhea had surfaced all over the world, many of them eventually dying of organ failure. There was almost no need to guess. It definitely had something to do with the red clouds. Speculations that the red clouds created an illness that had no cure and would undoubtedly lead to death began to circulate on the Internet, sending everyone into a full-blown panic. Gangsters on the street took the opportunity to vandalise and snatch things, while pro-apocalypse radicals with devious intention encouraged…

Table of Content | Character Guide Chapter 3 “There is no rule in this world that men can’t like sweets or chocolates!” Standing alone in the elevator, Fu Shiwu mumbled to himself sorrowfully. Just like the fact that the bastard didn’t take the elevator and climbed the stairs instead! The weather was so hot but there was no air-conditioner in the emergency exit. He climbed all the way to the 18th floor, doesn’t he feel hot?! “He’s not claustrophobic, right?” Fu Shiwu widened his eyes in surprise, thinking he had discovered the secret of that annoying guy. Fu Shiwu returned home and put the chocolate in the refrigerator. Because he…

Table of Content | Character Guide Chapter 2 Although Fu Shiwu went to bed early the previous day, he actually woke up in the middle of the night to stare at videos for a long time. When he got up the next day, Fu Shiwu felt as though he hadn’t rested at all. “Haaa~~~” Opening his mouth to yawn, Fu Shiwu took off his glasses and wiped the corners of his eyes. Just then, the elevator door opened and he put on his glasses with the speed of light. A pair of neighbours, who were also professionals, nodded at him. The man smiled at him but didn’t speak, then he…

Novel introduction & Translation masterpostCharacter GuideOriginal novel written by Nan Gua Lao Yao (南瓜老妖)Translator: Michelle N. _______ Chapter 1 When that moment came, Fu Shiwu was sleeping. Anyone who had worked overtime for three consecutive days would definitely sleep like a log when he got home. He wasn’t the type who woke up easily, unless it was some kind of life-threatening danger. The biological system of humans would respond automatically under such situations, and that was also what we knew as ‘primal instinct’. Fu Shiwu was startled to find himself suddenly awake. But after only a few seconds of staring blurrily into space, he quickly grabbed the glasses on the…
