"Sir, I'm telling the truth!"Ethan still wanted to persuade him. "It's better to be safe than sorry; there's no harm in stocking up on more food."The old man shook his head, sighed heavily, and looked at Ethan as if he were a hopeless fool: "Young man, you look like a decent person, so why are you spouting nonsense? What a pity."After saying this, he clasped his hands behind his back and walked away without looking back, his footsteps filled with a sense of "lamenting his misfortune and being angry at his lack of resolve."Ethan stood there, feeling a mix of amusement and frustration.He had offered heartfelt warnings, only to be treated like a fool; this was probably the helplessness of the time before the Apocalypse.Those who are clear-headed instead become the outliers."See? I knew it would be like this," he muttered to himself. "Even if I told them the details of the Apocalypse, they would just think I've read too many novels, and might even send me to a mental hospital."The

Ashley Carter looked at Ethan's reply on the phone screen, her fingers trembling, and hurriedly handed the phone to Ryan.The two huddled together, staring at those two lines of text, their faces changing instantly.Ethan was going to take "their 20 million" and go on a tour around the country? How could that be allowed!"Madman! He's just a madman!"Ryan roared in a low voice, his fingers gripping the phone so tightly his knuckles turned white."What is an idiot like him doing with 20 million? That money should have been ours to begin with!"In his eyes, Ethan's money was already in the bag. Now that Ethan was about to run away, it was like someone trying to snatch something from his pocket, making him pace around in a panic."Ash, hurry! Hurry and steady him!"Ryan grabbed Ashley's hand, his tone urgent."He only has you in his heart; he will definitely listen to what you say! We can't let him run away!"Ashley was also panicked and hurriedly typed on her phone, her fingers tremblin

Ethan Cole pushed open the building door. The morning sunlight fell on him, but it couldn't dispel the gloomy aura that felt out of place with his surroundings.The residential complex was full of the hustle and bustle of daily life.Elementary school students in uniforms carried backpacks, chatting and chirping as they headed to school together.Elderly people pushing strollers walked slowly, making the children inside giggle.There were also housewives carrying grocery bags, loudly discussing last night's TV dramas with their neighbors...These people wore the simplest smiles, completely unaware of the Extreme Cold Apocalypse that would swallow the world in a month.Their lives were as steady as gears in a clock, turning step by step, never imagining that fate would suddenly derail.Ethan watched all this, his footsteps unconsciously slowing down.If he hadn't lived another life, he would be just like them now, foolishly going to work at Crown Corp, continuing to be Ashley Carter's

Ethan Cole did not indulge in his excitement for too long; he continued to explore the functions of the Storage Space.After trying a few times, Ethan finally figured out the rules of the Storage Space.It was not a simple preservation method; rather, it could completely freeze the state of items at the moment they were stored.He specifically boiled a cup of hot water, watched the steam swirling as he stored it in the space, and then took it out; the water droplets on the cup wall and the rising steam were exactly the same as before.He also took a piece of melting ice cream, stored it for ten minutes, and then took it out; the degree of melting had not changed at all, and even the milk stains dripping on the wrapper remained exactly as they were."This function is simply heaven-defying!" Ethan couldn't help but whisper.Originally, he only planned to hoard processed foods that lasted a long time, like instant noodles, canned ham, and energy bars.But now, with this space that felt l

"Ashley Carter, if I could do it all over again, I would..."Ethan Cole's dying roar was still caught in his throat when a heart-wrenching, excruciating pain surged through his chest.He looked down in disbelief, only to see a blood-stained fruit knife protruding from his chest, the handle still clutched in the hand of his girlfriend, Ashley Carter.In the final moment before his consciousness faded, he saw not a shred of guilt in Ashley Carter's eyes, only naked mockery and madness, as if she were looking at a foolish ant."Ethan Cole, have a safe journey."The man beside her, his former "good brother," Ryan.He had one arm around Ashley's waist, while his other hand unscrupulously caressed her chest, his laughter twisted and sinister."Thanks for your 'care' over the past six months. Ashley and I were about to starve to death. Your final purpose is to serve as our reserve fund."Reserve fund...Ethan finally understood. He had been set up by Ryan.He had held Ashley Carter in the pa
