Chapter 99
Ethan knew Gabrielle was the one who had asked Victor to come and warn them. The warning itself hadn’t changed much, but he appreciated the gesture.In return, he waived three of Gabrielle’s treatment fees and gave her half a bottle of herbal liniment. It was only about two ounces, but considering the circumstances, it was already a generous gift.There was also a practical reason behind his generosity.Everyone in the building had their eyes on the eighteenth floor. He couldn’t afford to assume people would remain kind when things got worse. If the Goodmans were willing to pass along useful information, maintaining a good relationship with them could save him a lot of trouble.“Gabrielle, it’s getting colder every day. Your back won’t do well in damp or chilly conditions,” Ethan advised. “Massage the affected area with this liniment before bed, then wrap yourself in a warm blanket. It should help you recover faster.”In his previous life, Gabrielle had frozen to death. Victor was the

“That’s actually a brilliant idea. I’ll try it too,” Ethan said, impressed by the clever arrangements Maya and the others in Unit 1803 had come up with. “Do you think I could hollow out my couch and hide food inside?”Maya blinked.Why hadn’t they thought of that?A couch was large enough to conceal quite a bit, and nobody would think to search inside it unless they had a specific reason.After Maya left, Ethan returned to his sewing project.He still had some mink fur left over, so he decided to make winter coats for Ash and Snowy as well.Both rabbits had developed thick, healthy coats, and Snowy was pregnant again. Her belly had become noticeably rounder, suggesting another litter was on the way.Ethan wasn’t sure whether they would survive the coming deep freeze.He wanted to protect them, but he also understood that survival wasn’t guaranteed. If the conditions became too extreme and they couldn’t make it, at least they could provide food.It all depended on how things unfolded.
Chapter 97
There had been dozens of people crowded together during the confrontation. Heavy rain and poor visibility had made it difficult to see clearly, and Ethan had deliberately shifted his position to avoid drawing attention.Yet none of that had fooled Caleb.He had still managed to notice the difference.Ethan smiled, pretending not to understand what Caleb meant.Caleb didn’t press him. Instead, he began explaining how to handle the firearm properly.“Pull your shoulder back slightly. Lean forward when you raise the gun. Keep your elbows bent…”He demonstrated each movement, correcting Ethan’s posture and explaining how to manage the recoil.Ethan listened carefully, memorizing every instruction.When he returned to his apartment, he took out the imitation firearm and practised the movements on his own.Neither of them asked the other any questions.Some things didn’t need to be discussed.⸻After the shooting, the entire building became noticeably quieter.Nobody dared approach the eigh
Chapter 96
The girl couldn’t bear the shame.Overwhelmed by humiliation and despair, she eventually threw herself into the floodwater.She had been the only family her father had left. She was all he had.When he discovered that she was gone, something inside him finally snapped.He lost his mind, grabbed a cleaver, and began attacking anyone he could find.Several people died at the scene. Others succumbed to their injuries later, while many more suffered less serious wounds. There were also numerous crush injuries caused by the stampede.With the rain still pouring heavily, getting anyone to a hospital was practically impossible. Most residents didn’t have boats, and there was no reliable way to transport the injured.All they could do was lie in their apartments and endure the pain.Marcus and Oliver were still unconscious.Nobody knew whether either man would wake up. In fact, quite a few residents secretly hoped they wouldn’t.The attempted takeover had ended in complete failure.The buildi
Chapter 95
When Ethan had been stocking up before the disaster, he had deliberately purchased several imitation firearms. He figured they might come in handy if he ever needed to frighten someone away without actually using lethal force.He hadn’t expected Caleb to possess a real gun.Although the world had descended into chaos, the government hadn’t completely collapsed. It was still functioning, even if its operations had slowed considerably under the devastating flood.Firearms remained strictly controlled.If Ethan openly used a real gun in front of dozens of residents, it could attract unwanted attention. Even if the authorities were too overwhelmed to investigate immediately, there would eventually be questions about where he had obtained it.That was one problem.The other was explaining himself.Unless the situation became completely uncontrollable, he preferred not to expose the fact that he possessed a real firearm.Of course, if his life genuinely depended on it, he wouldn’t hesitate
Chapter 94
Some residents even turned toward the eighteenth floor, desperately begging to be let inside.The same people who had been shouting and threatening Ethan’s group only moments earlier were now stumbling over one another like trapped animals.When death stared them in the face, all their earlier bravado disappeared.Ethan had no intention of opening the door.He stood behind the reinforced steel bars, his expression blank as he watched the chaos unfold. It was almost like watching a performance, except the screams and blood were painfully real.Maya clenched her fists. Her lips parted as though she wanted to say something, but no words came out.After a moment, she turned her head away.The man wielding the cleaver was completely covered in blood. His face was twisted, his eyes wild, and his appearance was so terrifying that he looked like something dragged straight out of hell.A few of the larger, more physically imposing men finally gathered their courage and rushed toward him with t
