With wild thoughts running through my head, I looked at the hanging corpse and saw the work badge on his chest. The name written on it was—

"Zhao Kai." Above it hung his photograph from when he was still alive.

"Zhao Kai?!"

"I admire you... but right now, I have neither the time nor the means. I'm sorry."

If this were a peaceful world, I would definitely take him down and lay him properly on the ground. He deserved that much.

But now, I couldn't. Nor did I have the time.

Silently reciting, 'Amitabha,' I turned and walked toward that Yamaha!

The instant I straddled the Yamaha, a shiver ran through my entire body!! That feeling of a dream coming true made me feel so damn good!! Unable to hold it in, I actually started humming!

"Mmm~~~"

That moan gave me such a fright that I nearly jumped out of my skin!!

"Wah!! Did I really make such a girly sound?!"

Eek!! Shuddering all over, I hurriedly calmed myself down and fiddled with the Yamaha. To my surprise, there was even a matching motorcycle parking accessory at the back of the bike!

"This thing... looks like it might be useful..."

I pressed the switch in my hand. The motorcycle didn't need a key at all; it simply went "beep beep," then, accompanied by a rumble, the body began to vibrate slightly.

"Vroom~~~"

As the bike rumbled, its dashboard lit up at the same time. Its sci-fi appearance made me want to kiss it, but the very next second, I nearly fainted...

"Please verify your fingerprint to unlock."

The bright, beautiful female voice instantly shattered my mood!!

"Th-This crappy motorcycle needs fingerprint verification to unlock too?!"

I couldn't help shouting, my voice echoing through the empty underground parking garage.

Pickup Trucks and Motorcycles Cannot Both Be Had?

In the dim underground parking garage, a damp, moldy smell lingered in my nostrils. Every now and then, a faint breeze would blow past, carrying over the stench of blood and decay from the corpse hanging not far ahead.

In any case, it didn't smell good. It made it hard to breathe, leaving me feeling stifled and oppressed.

And the unbelievably cool Yamaha beneath me made an equally depressing sound.

A sweet female voice came from a speaker on the dashboard. "Please verify your fingerprint."

My mood immediately turned irritable, but the next second, that sweet female voice suddenly changed its tune.

"Dear rider, according to previous records, you have not registered a fingerprint. Please register your fingerprint to make your journey safer."

The moment I heard that, my spirits instantly returned to my body.

Could it be... that man named Li Jiahui had never registered his fingerprint for this bike?

What... was the reason for that?

No matter how I thought about it, I couldn't figure it out.

But for me, this was good news.

"Verify fingerprint."

Several beams of light suddenly flashed across the cool, futuristic dashboard. The side lights and decorative lights on the bike also began blinking. Then, that pretty female voice came through the speaker again.

"Alright... dear user, please place your fingerprint on the unlock area."

Next... following the prompts, I carried out a series of operations, pressing my fingerprints several times. To be safe, I registered all ten of my fingerprints, from beginning to end, into the system.

And by now, it was already past two-thirty in the afternoon.

"Only a little over five hours until dark?"

Muttering to myself, I lowered my head to look at the dashboard. The words "Verifying" appeared, followed by the flashing words "Verification Complete," and a rush of exhilaration filled my heart.

With a snap, I pressed down the gear lever beneath my left foot, shifted into first, released the clutch with my left hand, and gently fed it some throttle—but the bike completely exceeded my expectations!

Vroooom~~~

With an explosive roar, the instant I lightly twisted the throttle, the whole bike shot forward like a wild horse. If I hadn't hit the brakes in time, I would have slammed straight into the wall!

"This is..."

In that instant, my heart clenched sharply. Then an incomparably exhilarating feeling surged up within me, and an unconscious smile touched my lips.

I twisted the throttle hard and released the clutch with my left hand once more. Like a wild horse breaking free of its reins, the bike's front end lifted slightly as it charged out amid a thunderous roar!!

Vroooom~~~~

Accompanied by that fierce roar, under my control, the Yamaha made a full circuit around the vast underground parking lot before stopping beside the pickup truck.

The sensation of racing like wind and lightning thrilled my nerves. At some point, my ponytail had come undone—I didn't even know when the hair tie had flown off.

With my long hair cascading loose, I got off the motorcycle and set down its kickstand before turning to look at the pickup beside it...

It was beautiful, pure black, gleaming with an alluring metallic sheen. Though its body was covered in dust, that couldn't conceal its brilliance!

Its domineering exterior and double-row seating filled me with delight!

A vehicle like this was simply perfect for such a dangerous world. Its rear bed had enough space to fit the Yamaha, with plenty of room to spare!

Come to think of it, compared with a motorcycle, this type of vehicle was better suited to an environment like the apocalypse. Its only drawback was that it was too large and not agile enough, so when it came to escaping, the motorcycle was clearly more advantageous.

And that was precisely what delighted me. With a pickup like this, I could put all my belongings in the vehicle, keep the Yamaha in the back, and if some truly special situation arose, I could escape on the sport bike!

"This really kills two birds with one stone. Coming to this villa district wasn't a wasted trip."

Muttering to myself, I pulled out the keys from my pocket, found the pickup's key, and pressed the button.

Beep beep~

With a faint sound, the pickup's lights flashed twice, and then the interior lights suddenly came on.

"Is this... an infrared sensor light?"

Talking nonsense as I went, I walked to the door, pulled it open, then shut it with a bang and sat in the driver's seat.

The moment I sat down, the seat suddenly began to move, startling me—but... it was merely an automatic seat adjustment system.

It looked like some sort of memory seat adjustment system. Then, the original steering wheel gradually extended outward...

Accompanied by a burst of mechanical whirring, it extended directly before me.

"Luxury car! Definitely a luxury car!"

As I ran my hand over the superb-feeling steering wheel and marveled at it, I also checked where the keys went. Luckily, this vehicle didn't use fingerprint unlocking, but the more conventional key ignition.

The gears were simple too—automatic. I lightly pressed the brake, shifted into gear, and under my control, the vehicle slowly pulled out of the parking space and came to a stop beside the motorcycle.

I got out without closing the door. The engine's roar echoed through the entire underground garage as I walked over to the motorcycle, looked at it, then looked at the pickup's chassis, which stood over a meter high. I immediately found myself in a dilemma.

"How... am I supposed to get the motorcycle up there?"

Walking over to the motorcycle, I tried lifting it by the handlebars. It was heavy—not beyond the limits of my current strength, but lifting it more than a meter high without anywhere to brace myself was impossible.
