Fear etched on their faces, they watched the eerie woman gradually approaching.
"Don't... Don't come any closer!"
"I was wrong, I'm sorry, I'm lower than a dog or a pig. I beg you, spare me!"
Annan looked at the shivering duo: "If I begged you in this way earlier, would you have spared me?"
Looking at the bewildered two, Annan continued: "Of course, you wouldn't."
Not only would they have not spared her, but they had also planned to kill her to eliminate any potential risks, after having their fun, of course.
After all, there are plenty of missing girls in this world.
Who would know that one more had disappeared in an abandoned factory on the outskirts of the city?
Annan showed no mercy, instantly sending the two of them to their eternal rest.
"I already said l'm here to buy oil; refusing the money turned out to be a death wish."
Despite appearing as a fresh-faced young graduate on the outside, the Annan who had lived through four years of apocalypse was hardened by the harsh realities of life, possessing a heart as tough as iron.
She calmly stored all the oil drums in her private space.
Taking advantage of the others not yet returning, she quickly cleaned up the scene and sealed the three corpses in bags, subsequently placing them in her space.
Leaving the factory, she was about to drive away when she noticed Red Hair's van still parked there.
A Wuling van? In the post apocalyptic world, this was an excellent vehicle. Durable, strong, inconspicuous and able to carry a lot of goods.
When the base is eventually established by the authorities, An Nan surely can't always get there on foot, could she?
The more she examined it, the more she liked it. There were a few barrels of diesel in the car and the keys were not removed. She directly received everything into her space.
Arriving home, An Nan was so tired that her waist and back ached.
It seems her physical strength still needed to be strengthened.
After cleaning up, An Nan collapsed on the bed, sleepiness washing over her.
At this moment, the sound of "thump, thump, thump" suddenly came from downstairs.
Had the pork in Room 1302 not been dealt with yet? An Nan thought hazily.
But she was too exhausted today to care, swiftly falling into a deep sleep.
The next day, when she woke up, it was gently raining outside.
She picked up the phone on her bedside: July 10th, 2039.
In the previous life, the rain began today.
The summer of these years is getting hotter each year, and this year it's unbearably hot. This is the first rain since the beginning of summer.
People were jubilant for this rare coolness, but little did they know that tomorrow, this small rain would turn into a giant storm, sweeping across the globe, marking the beginning of the apocalypse.
Annan hurriedly got up to wash and brush. Today was the last day before the apocalypse, she had to go to Aunt Chen to get back her triangular thorn knife.
Just as she got downstairs, her phone rang.
It was an electronic version of a water quality test report sent by the water quality testing company.
Annan couldn't wait to open it and check.
The water quality reached drinking standards.
Annan immediately felt relieved and cheerfully headed to Aunt Chen's home.
Mrs. Chen also lived in a hillside villa area.
The villa area is halfway up Luoan Mountain and you need to walk along a mountain road to get there.
The road is slippery in the rain. The light freight truck she rented is difficult to drive on such a road, but Annan still chose light freight.
After all, the world hasn't gone into chaos yet. The Wuling Shen car, which was robbed, couldn't be blatantly driven out.
Annan carefully controlled the steering wheel, looking ahead.
Suddenly, a pure black armored car drove up from the opposite side.
She widened her eyes: Is this....? This is the Fifteenth Knight!
A bulletproof armored vehicle worth 16 million. A black steel beast, from the body armor to the glass, even the tires are bulletproof.
The entire vehicle can withstand an attack from a 15-kilogram TNT bomb-a perfect vehicle for the apocalypse!
Annan couldn't help but turn her head, watching her dream car roar by.
How she yearned for it!
It was said that there were only two cars like this in the country. Although Annan has seen plenty of Rolls-Royces, Bentleys, and various supercars in the villa area, how come she never noticed who owns such a cool armored car...
Lost in her thoughts, she arrived at her destination without realizing it.
Mrs. Chen had already spoken to security, so she encountered no obstacles and smoothly entered the Chen residence.
Here it was just as grand and luxurious as the mansion she used to live in.
Mrs. Chen was sitting on a luxurious sofa, handing her a prepared triangular thorn. Annan took it with both hands and politely thanked her.
Mrs. Chen looked at the polite girl in front of her who was faced with family changes, and couldn't help but have some sympathy.
It was tough for her to still keep herself neat and elegant despite the change in fortunes.
So, she took out another exquisite jewelry box.
"This jade pendant was previously given to me by your mother, I heard you left home with nothing, so take this as a memento," she said, offering the box to Annan.
Annan was taken aback, "Since it was given by my mother, how could I take it back..."
"I told you to keep it, so just keep it."
Mrs. Chen interrupted her, shoved the jewellery box into Annan's hand and then turned around to go upstairs without looking at her.
"Young Liu, see our guest out."
Chen's family nanny immediately came forward and made a "please" gesture.
Annan gave a thoughtful glance at Mrs. Chen's retreating figure, holding the pendant and tri-edge thorn, and left.
She remembered that when she came to find her scumbag father in her previous life, she also saw Mrs.Chen. But at that time, she didn't lend a helping hand and coldly watched her being driven away.
