Chapter 1 Chapter 001

It was sunny on July 6, 2019 at 9 am.

Link woke up in a quiet bedroom near Rockford.

As his consciousness became clearer, he felt his head dizzy, and he was still in constant pain tightly and loosely.

“Fake,” he was limply lying on the bed, and he was unable to get up for a while: it was too exhausting to rush all night to write articles. I had a headache and brain swelling after sleeping all night, and my body was also weak. Don’t get sick.

Staring blankly at the corner of the curtains fluttering under the breeze of the air conditioner, a ray of mischievous sunlight slipped into the room, spilling a bright strip of light.

Lost for a long time, the dizzy and painful brain and limp body eased.

Lifting the thin blanket and going into the bathroom to take a hot bath, Link finally felt that he was alive.

Putting on a clean T-shirt and shorts, drooping slippers, went into the living room and turned on the TV: “…Recently, a new type of rabies virus has appeared across the country, and the infected people have an obvious tendency to attack. Please call the police as soon as possible for help…”

Lin Kemu looked at the TV, the male host sitting in jeopardy with a serious face grinned: “Rabies? I’m afraid it’s a poor disease.”

Decrease the volume at will, press the remote control panel, and switch to the ABC TV station that broadcasts news 24 hours a day.

TV is an effective channel to obtain real-time information from the outside world, but he doesn’t like being too noisy, so the volume is lower, and what you hear is what you hear.

Turning and walking into the kitchen, Link started to prepare breakfast for himself.

Fried eggs, ham, and lettuce, tomatoes, is a qualified sandwich, which only takes a few minutes.

On the TV in the living room, some words came intermittently, such as order, panic, virus analysis and so on.

It seems to be the rabies thing? This thought flashed through Link’s mind, and he immediately put it aside: his brain is so uncomfortable, there is no need to think about the news that is made to attract eyeballs.

He ate the sandwiches with a big bite, and his body’s softness improved slightly, which made him relieved: It should be yesterday that he rushed to the draft, and he was hungry without eating anything.

To make sandwiches, add more tomatoes, chickpeas, diced mushrooms, carrots, and sauces to marinate beef slices. Spread it on the rice layer in the inner pot of the rice cooker, mix it with cold water one centimeter before the rice, and put it back. For the rice cooker, close the lid and press the start button.

Lunch is also finished.

Every day, cooking is a “complex” but essential task.

Only by cooking on your own can you provide adequate and balanced nutrition with the least amount of money.

To this end, he did not hesitate to buy a brand-new rice cooker, and all the tasks of frying, cooking, and cooking within five years can be entrusted to it.

Pour the last bit of hot coffee from the coffee pot, add half a cup of milk and two spoons of sugar, and Link walked to the living room.

On TV, the host turned into a man and a woman. The host looked excitedly babbling. On the big screen behind it was a street scene with a lot of red, green and green mosaics at all.

But the expressions of the onlookers proved to be another eye-popping news.

Link lowered the TV volume again impatiently before going to the chair in front of the window and sitting down.

Outside the house is wide open, the sky is high and the clouds are light, the wind is sunny, the green trees are shaded, the flowers and plants are everywhere, and it is quiet and peaceful.

Moving here is really the right choice! Quiet and peaceful, don’t have to become a mosaic on the news, and don’t waste this large sum of money. So comforting himself in his heart, he drank a big sip of coffee.

The bitterness and sweetness are mixed with the rich milk flavor, and the taste is great.

Before he knew it, he was a little sleepy again.

Put the coffee on the small table next to him, pull up the thin blanket to cover him, Link yawned, leaned back in the chair, and closed his eyes.

Don’t you work hard on weekdays and be lazy just for this moment?

After sleeping for an unknown period of time, Link woke up suddenly.

After being at a loss for a moment, he realized that it was the noise outside that had awakened him… Uh, well, he hadn’t dreamed just now.

Following the place where the sound came from, looking out the window, the sunny afternoon disappeared completely, and the gloomy sky was drifting with fine light rain.

A woman was screaming in horror, while pulling a young girl, stumbled over.

Behind two women, big and small, followed a middle-aged white man who stumbled likewise.

Link blinked: Is this… domestic violence?

The man and the woman are his neighbors, living in another bungalow more than 100 meters away.

The man’s name is Sam Bob, thirty-seven years old, and he is the middle manager of the Rockford airport. He has a stable job and a good income.

One of the two women is Bob’s wife Delia, 28 years old, and the other is his daughter Camilla, 15 years old.

Said it was a neighbor, but there was not much intersection between the two sides, so he came to greet him when he first moved in.

This is mainly for safety reasons.

Once the new neighbor doesn’t look like a good person, Bob’s wife Delia’s status as a community committee member becomes useful.

However, Link is Asian. At the age of nineteen, he is just over 1.7 meters tall and weighs 110 kilograms. His appearance is unremarkable in United States, and he doesn’t seem threatening.

In the two months since he moved, he rarely went out except for a polite return visit to Bob’s house, then running and shopping.

Occasionally, when meeting neighbors, he just nodded, grinned and smirked, even if he greeted him, he was polite and alienated.

The Bob family was relieved.

It is much better to have an otaku as a neighbor than a gang member as a neighbor.

The two are not familiar with each other, so Link, whose head is still a little bit painful, only thought it was domestic violence for a while, and murmured: “It seems that Bob hasn’t beaten his wife.”

But he is busy writing and making money, and it is impossible for him to always pay attention to the family life of his neighbors more than 100 meters away. It is also difficult for him to notice real domestic violence.

Tube? Or don’t care? This is a problem.

Most people are reluctant to engage in domestic violence.

This is not all human indifference, but many victims of domestic violence will change their minds afterwards.

Well-meaning people who stop domestic violence at that time will become defendants who hurt others.

Especially in the suburbs where Link lived, the Bob family and him were within a few hundred meters, and it was really hard to tell if he was bitten.

Hesitating in his heart, he immediately got up, turned and lifted the carpet in front of the sofa in the living room, and removed a long piece of wooden floor.



A shotgun appeared in a long hole under the wooden floor.

Grabbing the gun and the bullets next to it, Link turned the gun upside down on his knees, with a set of two shots in his left hand, and quickly stuffed six shots from the bottom.

Finally hesitated, he still filled in a beanbag bullet, then got up and came to the window.

At this time, Bob’s family had run more than twenty meters away, and Delia’s call became Link’s name.

Link frowned: It sounded like killing a pig. Could it be that Bob’s second wife also turned him green, and this man finally couldn’t bear the blow and collapsed?
