Chapter 5 — Penthouse Mat The

Updated 10/08/2026 5 min read

At this time, there are no supermarkets left open, everyone seems to realize that this is a long-term war. But people who are crazy hungry don't think so, they gather in groups to destroy stores and rush in to fight for loot. There are also some people who, even if they can't take it away, destroy it and won't let others take it. I also occasionally monitor the situation in the company group, and there are still quite a few people posting things like 【So exciting, so fun】. It seems they just consider this a game. Just like in the previous life, if we eat frugally, the company's supplies are enough for everyone to live for half a year. Unfortunately, no one takes them seriously and they eat and drink lavishly every day. Until two months passed without any action from the government, the power went out without air conditioning, the weather was hot and there was no supervision, everything quickly went into chaos. Until someone in the company groped me, I screamed to find that person. Tu Le hinted that there were no cameras, everyone was acquaintances, probably because the pressure was too great. She advised me to be generous. According to her hints, everyone became more and more excessive, and my boyfriend quickly took Tu Le's side and advised me not to compare. After that, the situation got worse and worse, they began to divide into factions to appropriate materials, one faction was led by Tan Vu Hien, mostly people with some positions in the company, the other faction was the security captain Tan Dung. After Tan Vu Hien's faction was defeated by Tan Dung's faction, he immediately handed me over to Tan Dung. At first I had enough of Tan Dung's humiliation, then he started giving me away to his juniors, until finally everyone could... Thinking about this still makes my heart ache. A friend message was sent to Tan Dung's phone, but that wasn't enough, we had to add some fire. After he agreed, I sent a long confession in advance, telling him how Tan Vu Hien defamed him in front of me, and how I was afraid of having to compensate for the contract. My cries immediately aroused his protective instinct.

"Mr. Qin is so good, he let a white-faced guy oppress his head."

That sentence was like a ghost, lingering in his head. After ten days of extreme heat, the weather gradually cooled down. Electricity in the city was also temporarily restored, people breathed a sigh of relief because they thought the natural disaster had finally ended. The damaged supermarkets reported the crime one after another, determined to catch the robbers. As for the people in the company, it seemed they had no intention of going home. Tan Vu Hien spoke eloquently in the group, painting a prospect that everyone couldn't refuse. YD Media started the first livestream after the disaster on the entire network, but many people who had just gone through the disaster were tired and had no mood to watch the livestream. The livestream room was filled with curses, but Tan Vu Hien didn't care at all. After all, being famous because of scandal is still famous. Less than half an hour into the livestream, a loud explosion suddenly rang out in the sky. A bolt of lightning tore through half the sky, and at the same time the whole city was plunged into darkness, and rain poured down. The thunder in the night was like a devil demanding his life, as well as a wild beast ambushing him long ago. Under the lightning, the expressions on each person's face were different.

"Mr. Hien, I still have some work to do, so I'll go home first."

Didn't finish his sentence and ran away, completely did not pay attention to Tan Vu Hien's threats. After the first person opened the show, more than twenty people left one by one, in the end only Tan Vu Hien's side remained, Tu Le Le's small group also followed him. As for the security team, most of them are rough men in poor conditions, bold and not afraid of trouble. As long as they have money, the thunder, lightning, rain, and wind are nothing. My words were still ringing in Tan Dung's ears, his eyes looking at Tan Vu Hien became more and more ferocious.

“Very soon zombies will appear, people caught in the rain will turn into zombies.” I looked at Do Vu and said calmly.

“Perhaps there is some factor in the rain that causes people caught in the rain to turn into bloodthirsty zombies. They take human blood as food, do not feel pain, only having their heads blown off can truly kill them.”

I hesitated a bit then composed a message to send to the residents group. 【There's a virus in the rain, don't go out.】 I didn't specify the house number in the group name, being a good person is just this once. I know we can't stop everyone, standing out arbitrarily will only make ourselves a target. There were still quite a few people who believed my words and stayed indoors to observe, but many more people looked disdainful. Soon, someone was holding an umbrella in the rain. After observing for a few minutes, nothing happened. More and more people went out to look for supplies. Some people didn't even carry an umbrella, jumping into the rain and posing in a few poses. Next to them, there was someone recording a video, probably planning to post it online. But very quickly his face began to distort, his arms and legs twisted strangely, and finally he rushed into his companions. Frantically sucking fresh blood, people around were scared to death, dropped their umbrellas and ran away.
