In the presidential suite of Jinhu Hotel,
Xiao Yu enjoyed a relaxing hot bath, soothing the fatigue from a long night of raiding.
Shortly after, An Xiaoran and Han Kexin also finished bathing.
Strangely enough, the two of them came out wrapped only in towels—without the slightest hint of embarrassment.
Instead, it was Xiao Yu who felt a bit awkward.
As the saying goes: If you're not embarrassed, the one who's embarrassed is the other person.
Two top-tier beauties with completely different charms swaying around like that—Xiao Yu could only sigh. His mind was willing, but his body was exhausted.
He had worked the hardest last night.
And they still had to go out again tonight. It was prime time for stockpiling supplies, and he needed to open the Space Warehouse again.
He had to maintain peak condition.
Endure for now.
The good days were yet to come.
Han Kexin went to steam a pack of frozen steamed buns, and the three of them had breakfast before quickly heading to rest.
Once Xiao Yu was sound asleep,
S City welcomed a new day—and the sound of gunfire grew even more intense.
"Report: Infectious-type carriers have appeared in the East District. Those bitten are revived and continue biting others."
"Alert! Alert! Infectious carriers now seen in the West District."
"South District..."
"North District..."
Woooo—Woooo—Woooo—
A long, high-pitched air raid siren blared throughout the city.
Xiao Yu turned over and pulled the blanket tighter, continuing to sleep peacefully.
Perhaps he was the only one in the entire city who could rest so soundly.
Meanwhile, City Governor Guo Weihui was in a full-blown panic.
"The T-Virus has mutated again!"
"Now it can resurrect the dead and turn them into infectious carriers. One bite leads to another. If this continues, we'll be doomed!"
"Has the reinforcement unit from H City arrived yet?"
Right now, the only viable strategy was overwhelming force—contain the city through sheer firepower.
If they lost control—
Even losing his head wouldn't be enough to atone for the consequences.
"Report: T-Virus Mutants have also appeared in H City. Their reinforcements turned back halfway."
What?!
Guo Weihui slammed his water cup in fury.
Truthfully, he wasn't mad at the H City team. If the situation were reversed, he would've pulled his troops back too.
What infuriated him was how rapidly the situation had changed.
This morning, just after waking up, he received the devastating news:
Twenty-three cities across the country, and over two thousand towns worldwide, had reported cases of T-Virus mutation.
The global outlook was grim.
Especially in S City, where the infected could bring the dead back to life.
"Are we in some kind of zombie movie now?"
Guo Weihui shuddered.
"Governor, there's one more matter. Last night, all ten slaughterhouses in our city were completely looted."
"The circumstances are highly suspicious."
"No vehicles entered or exited the premises, yet over 700 tons of fresh meat vanished."
"There were even special agents investigating the matter overnight, but they turned up nothing."
What?
700 tons of fresh meat, gone?!
Was this a joke?!
"Pull up the surveillance footage! I want to see it with my own eyes!"
Guo Weihui was shocked.
This was a time of crisis, and someone dared to exploit it for profit?
That was his first assumption—he suspected the slaughterhouse executives had secretly moved the meat overnight.
Soon,
Surveillance footage from the first site—Xinxing Slaughterhouse—was pulled up.
Guo Weihui watched closely from the exterior to the interior, not missing a frame.
Then he froze.
"There's really no one... taking meat out of the freezer."
"Then where the hell did all that meat go?"
"And why did those three agents' presence cause the workers to knock heads and faint?"
Guo Weihui couldn't figure it out.
He kept watching.
He spent an hour going through footage from all ten slaughterhouses—still no clues.
If anything, his suspicions only deepened.
"Who are these three agents?"
"Report: Their status is classified."
Classified?
Even he, the city governor, didn't know about them?
How high-ranked were they—and so young, too?
"No, this won't do!"
"I need to meet them personally."
Guo Weihui was determined to see their credentials and contact their superiors—only then could he put his doubts to rest.
Otherwise, he couldn't let it go.
Everywhere these three went, workers bashed heads, and meat disappeared.
There had to be some kind of secret behind this!
"Find out where these three agents are staying."
"Report: They're at Jinhu Hotel."
"Prepare a vehicle. I want to meet them right now."
"Governor, that may not be a good idea... Judging by the footage, they were investigating until sunrise. They're probably sleeping now."
Hmm...
Guo Weihui nodded.
It really wasn't a good time. He would have to wait until the afternoon at least.
Besides, S City had just reported a T-Virus Carrier, and H City had withdrawn its reinforcements. The outbreak had taken a dramatic turn.
A citywide emergency meeting had to be called.
A new plan was needed.
"Alright. In that case, interrogate those security guards who acted strangely."
Guo Weihui figured the guards who rammed heads must've been under some influence.
"Report: Most of those guards died from the head trauma."
"Only three survived."
"But they suffered severe concussions—completely unable to speak."
…
Meanwhile, at Jinhu Hotel—
Next door to the presidential suite was another ultra-luxurious room.
Living there was a half-blood beauty.
Her name was Anna, a Lady Croupier at the hotel's casino. With refined, sculpted features and a stunningly exaggerated yet perfectly proportioned figure, she exuded allure.
Anna had been calling her parents over and over.
But no one answered.
A sense of dread welled up inside her.
And just then, a bestial, emotionless roar came from the bathroom—
"ROAARR—"
