Chapter 134

Author: Ada Plus
Two miles didn't sound far, but the ice was extremely slippery, and those so-called anti-slip snow boots were useless.

If someone chased you out here, you wouldn't just be slow, but you would probably wipe out and get yourself killed.

Reaching into her backpack as a cover, Nicole pulled out a pair of ice skates from her storage space and put them on.

They were a little big, but after layering a few pairs of socks, they fit snug enough.

She knew how to skate, but being from a coastal city, sh

    Nicole didn't stop. She gripped her blade and walked straight toward Oliver.His legs gave out beneath him. "Th-this is murder! It's illegal!""Oh, so you do know what illegal means." Nicole smiled faintly, her eyes cold. "You took Faye and the others out to trade for food, then worked with those collectors behind everyone's back. That's not illegal?""N-No, it's a misunderstanding!""Really? Then how about we open your door and see exactly how much you've got stored inside?"Oliver tried to argue, but Nicole had no patience left. She drove the knife into him.A sharp scream tore out of his throat.Nicole didn't aim for his heart. The blade sank into his shoulder instead. "Do you think you've got nine lives? You keep going after us like you won't pay for it. What made you think we wouldn't end you?"She grabbed him by the collar and dragged him to the window, then shoved him out.This wasn't a flood anymore. The world was locked in a deep freeze. From the 16th floor, there w

    Nicole's words instantly set the leader off. He raised his gun, ready to fire.At the last second, Oliver rushed forward to stop him. "Don't use the gun. We can talk this out."He turned and tried to persuade Nicole. "Nicole, I know you're capable, but don't pick a fight you can't win. Things aren't the same anymore. You're not short on food anyway. Staying alive is what matters. Don't risk your life over this. If you trust me, I'll negotiate for you. I'll try to get the amount lowered. How about that?"Nicole looked at him. "You're working pretty hard for them. How much are they paying you?""What did you say?!" Oliver froze, then his face twisted with anger. "I nearly got myself killed trying to lower the protection rations for everyone, and this is how you repay me? You think I'm in on it?""You're wearing layers that thick and somehow ended up covered in blood. Are you sure that's not just chicken blood or fake dye?"Her words landed like a bomb. The survivors all snapped

    As Oliver spoke, he coughed up a mouthful of blood.The crowd erupted in anger. Other buildings only had to pay three pounds, so why were they being charged six?But seeing Oliver take the beating for them, all that anger got stuck in their throats.Still, it didn't sit right.Someone finally shouted, "Fine, we'll hand over food, but make the people on the 18th floor pay first!"The others froze for a second, then quickly backed him up. "Yeah! If they pay, we'll pay, too. Not a pound less!""And the 17th floor, too! They've got plenty of food stashed away. If you've got the nerve, make them hand it over instead of picking on people like us!"The words spread like wildfire. The whole crowd grew louder, more agitated.The leader frowned. It was clear that if they didn't break the 17th and 18th floors today, there was no way this would end.That worked out fine. They had come for the 18th floor, anyway. Once those people were crushed, no one else would dare resist.With Oliver l

    The police were human, too. They were already understaffed, and after the disasters and rescue efforts, even fewer were left alive.Meanwhile, these criminal groups were multiplying fast, spreading everywhere. Crime was breaking out in every corner.Plenty of public officials had already died at their hands.These people moved like ghosts, covered head to toe with only their eyes showing. They were armed with guns and had planted informants inside residential buildings. Anyone who reported them or resisted ended up worse off.Nicole's group exchanged glances. Beatrice was the first to snap. "Anyone who wants to pay can pay. I'm not giving them a damn thing!"She had always been the one beating others down. There was no way she would let anyone push her around.Nicole stayed calm. "Gabrielle, we're not paying."Gabrielle understood immediately. "Victor and his parents won't start work for a few more days. When the time comes, we'll face it together. I won't hold you back."Bac

    To be blunt, Zeph's shoulder injury was just soft tissue damage. It wasn't like he couldn't move at all. He just couldn't lift heavy things or make big movements. Day-to-day life wasn't really affected.If someone helped you and then leveraged it, they usually wanted something in return. Plus, whatever they wanted probably wasn't just basic supplies.Nicole couldn't help it. Years of struggling through the apocalypse had changed her. Even with a second chance, her mindset didn't reset. She looked at everyone with suspicion.Especially with the secret of her storage space, she couldn't afford to gamble.Still, the way Zeph handled things made her see him in a different light.Gabrielle came knocking again, her expression caught between relief and worry.Derek and Victor, both technical researchers, passed their interviews easily and got jobs. Their pay was 15 pounds of rice or flour a month.Lydia was a teacher. She didn't qualify for technical positions, but she managed to get h

    Seeing the look on Nicole's face, Zeph tried to reassure her. "You don't need to worry. Cola's smart. Dogs are the most loyal partners humans have. I don't think he'll lose himself."Nicole wasn't so sure. The deep freeze would last a full year, and when Cola died saving her last time, it had only been three months in.Back then, all he wanted was to protect her. Even as they beat him to death, he never let go…The memory was too brutal. Nicole shoved it away and pulled Cola tight into her arms. This time, she would be the one protecting him.Sensing her emotions shift, the dog pressed into her, tail low as he wondered what was wrong with his human."I'll train him properly," Zeph said.Train him properly? Cola ground his teeth. Hadn't he already graduated?Zeph rubbed his head. "Training never ends. As long as we're alive, we keep improving."Cola tilted his mouth, unimpressed. Yeah, right.Back home, Nicole measured his height and weight, recording every detail. Not just him
