Chapter 0005 Hidden Plot

Transportation means for commuting are relatively manageable; after the cataclysm, the streets are filled with abandoned vehicles. However, the issues concerning food, drinking water, medicine, and fuel are quite troublesome. Without these supplies, one cannot survive long regardless of where they escape to, thus in the short term, Zhou Qingfeng cannot leave New York, as it is here that he can more conveniently gather a large amount of resources

It is now deep into the night, and the neighborhood is quite quiet, with hardly anyone visible on the streets. Zhou Qingfeng arrived at an intersection by identifying the signs along the roadside, checked the time, and waited for a while. At this moment, his heart was pounding because he was about to take a gamble on his guess.

After finishing dinner and chatting for a while, it was already past eight in the evening. After expressing gratitude to the Lawrence family, Zhou Qingfeng returned to his own house... um... the house that had been burned down

As he watched the towering figure, resembling an iron tower, approach him step by step, Zhou Qingfeng's hair stood on end, and he broke out in a cold sweat. He repeatedly told himself to "calm down, calm down," for he recognized who he was facing—the notorious Potaski brothers, Russian-American mobsters, infamous members of the mafia from Queens, and the very perpetrators of this murder case.

Using the familiar operating system Windows, Zhou Qingfeng opened a notepad and began to input the items that needed to be prepared in response to the impending catastrophe

Zhou Qingfeng spent an hour connecting several seemingly unrelated events in the film. Finally, he walked out to the street outside the house, ready to implement the plan he had envisioned

Zhou Qingfeng spent two to three hours trying to recall the plot of the movie 'Wasteland' and meticulously recorded everything that happened in the film on his computer. His survival during the early stages of the catastrophe depended on whether he could navigate the known storyline to avoid misfortune and gain an advantage

The bedroom of the room is quite simple, featuring a bed, a table, a wardrobe, and a few stools. However, what left Zhou Qingfeng astounded was that the walls of the bedroom were covered with various photographs, all taken from the rooftop of his own home, capturing the Lawrence family across the street.

In the United States, approximately 40 to 50 million people rely on food stamps for their livelihood. These food stamps are distributed through real-name stored value cards and can only be exchanged for food at certain local restaurants and supermarkets. Therefore, it is entirely impossible for Zhou Qingfeng to purchase supplies using his own savings

At that time, the entire traffic in New York will be paralyzed, and large vehicles will be unable to move at all. Therefore, a moderately sized motorcycle with strong off-road capabilities and high horsepower is essential. If possible, it would be best to obtain a police motorcycle

The conversation with Tony Parker was not particularly pleasant; it was evident that the hipster had already regarded him as an enemy. The other party must have felt that Zhou Qingfeng was provoking him, aiming to embarrass him in front of Angie

The shouts in the dead of night were quite jarring, as two fierce faces emerged from the shadows of the trees, their expressions menacing as they stared at Zhou Qingfeng. The two assailants were both large men, and one of them stepped forward, with a bear-like physique and wolf-like eyes, growling menacingly, "Kid, do you have any idea that you are asking for trouble?"

Suddenly, the sound of high heels echoed on the quiet street, and a woman's figure appeared. Soon after, two tall and strong men emerged behind her. The woman's weak and powerless pleas could soon be heard, along with the men's low and coarse curses.

This broken computer is not much more advanced than it was in 2016, and by 2030, it will be considered an antique that belongs in the trash heap

I have triggered a hidden storyline! Moreover, I have challenged an elite monster beyond my level! Please make sure to give me a big gift package upon completing the task later

This indeed feels a bit like being a weakling in battle! We must find a way to strengthen, strengthen, and strengthen again

There are photos of Rachel in formal attire watering flowers in the garden, as well as photos of her hanging clothes on the windowsill, and others of her cooking dinner in the kitchen, and reading a book on the balcony. All of these are relatively normal.

The object of the theft and photography is naturally not David Lawrence, nor is it Angelina Lawrence, who has a good relationship with Zhou Qingfeng; rather, it is the mature, sexy, and gracious Rachel Connor.

Zhou Qingfeng's remarkable feat was to shout out loud: "What are you all doing?"

However, if one wishes to complete this work before the great catastrophe, a considerable amount of money is required. Yet, Zhou Qingfeng does not have much money; his current status is that of a socially marginalized individual relying on government aid, with only food vouchers and similar items in his pocket

Well, Angelina Lawrence is indeed a beautiful girl, worthy of Zhou Qingfeng's pursuit. However, he truly values that robotic dog even more, as it is a highly capable intelligent assistant with formidable combat power

Compared to the smart home design of the Lawrence family, Zhou Qingfeng's house is significantly inferior, almost resembling a slum. There are no household robots here, nor are there any personalized appliances. Due to the first floor being severely damaged in a recent fire, he had no desire to even take another look and went straight up to the second floor

After processing Rachel's alluring photos, Zhou Qingfeng sat at his bedroom desk and turned on his computer. Compared to the latest model with a virtual screen that Anji had, his computer was at least a decade old, complete with a mouse, keyboard, chassis, and monitor

But how the hell are there photos taken through the bedroom window of Rachel in her pajamas? There are also photos of Rachel coming out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel, and even pictures of my wife in a bikini lounging in the backyard sunbathing

Wait a moment! Saying 'absolutely' is a bit excessive! Zhou Qingfeng thought: This issue should be viewed from an artistic perspective! If it were me, seeing someone with such a good figure, my wife, it is quite normal to steal a few glances occasionally!

In the bathroom mirror, Zhou Qingfeng saw his current self—indeed, it was his eighteen-year-old appearance, but he looked much more refined. Standing at a height of 1.8 meters, he appeared somewhat handsome. However, upon removing his clothes, he realized he was rather thin, probably weighing less than 70 kilograms

If one wishes to obtain supplies after a major catastrophe, money is not necessary; however, it requires contending with strong illegal immigrants and various bullies. Given Zhou Qingfeng's current small stature, can he compete against thugs who are generally 1.9 meters tall and weigh over 100 kilograms?

What the hell ... ? ... Who is this pervert filming ... ? This pervert, uh ... ... It can't be me, right ! Jehovah, are you coming out to face me ? Is this the setting you have given me -- a lewd and shameless perverted boy ? ... Don't say this is my doing, I absolutely could not have done this ...

An eighteen-year-old youth, after all, will make mistakes that even God would forgive. However, the photos should be kept on the computer; printing them out and putting them on the bedroom wall is simply indecent! If David Lawrence were to discover that I secretly took sexy photos of his wife, I fear that I would no longer be able to enjoy a pleasant relationship with his daughter

The murder case, it is this very murder case!

Regardless of whether it is theft, robbery, or deception, it is best to acquire a sum of money, at least enough to purchase supplies that can last for more than a week. This way, one does not have to worry about going hungry and can have the energy to go to Columbia University to get that robotic dog when a major disaster occurs

It was the night before the three days leading up to the great disaster, when Zhou Qingfeng suddenly remembered a news report that would be broadcast on television the following day. There would be a murder in this neighborhood, and the victim was a prostitute from a nearby underground bar. His mind raced as he sought to find an opportunity for wealth amidst this situation

First, we need a means of transportation. Although our small stature has great potential, potential alone does not equate to strength. Having a suitable mode of transport ensures that in the early stages of a major disaster, we do not seek to gain much advantage, but rather to move quickly! If we discover that something is amiss, we must immediately make our escape

Moreover, even if one could fight back, what difference would it make? The proliferation of firearms in the United States has led to a prevalence of scoundrels committing crimes everywhere. Such individuals often carry one or two guns and tend to operate in groups. If Zhou Qingfeng were to encounter such criminals, he would have no chance to escape.

Zhou Qingfeng tore down the stolen photos one by one, thinking it would be too wasteful to burn them. He found a box and stuffed them inside, then tossed it under the bed
