My Perfect Apocalyptic Life

Chapter 19 - Interested in Swimming, Fitness, Legal Disputes, or New Home Presales?



The air was thick, filled with a putrid stench of blood wafting from the stairwell, making it hard for Meng Xu to bear. He wrinkled his brow in disgust.

However, what really made him frown, what pained him deeply and filled him with bitter disappointment, was another matter entirely.

Wang Zhan…

Had left this world forever.

He did not pass peacefully. Judging by the gruesome scene, he had struggled for a long time before finally perishing, seemingly conscious while being devoured.

In the end, only remnants of flesh and pools of blood were left.

And the culprit responsible for all of this was none other than himself!

So, Meng Xu felt both heartache and shame.

“I specifically asked you two to take care of Wang Zhan, to look after him. How could you act so rashly and commit such heinous acts?!”

Meng Xu was heartbroken, looking at Manager Zhang, whose head was disfigured, and Chi Wei, with only half a face left.

“Look at what you’ve done! Even though it was Wang Zhan who was in the wrong first, we are supposed to be the new-age exemplary zombies. How could you commit such heinous crimes?! Truly, you’ve deeply disappointed me!”

“Of course, that’s not the main issue. The biggest problem is… Why on earth did your favorability increase?! Why are you acting like masochists? Alright, alright, today I’ll indulge your little fetishes!”

With that, Meng Xu kicked Manager Zhang, who was already disfigured, knocking him to the ground. He then viciously swung his wrench, hitting him twice.

“Don’t think I won’t hit you because you’re a manager! Today, you’re the one I’m hitting!”

After finishing with Manager Zhang, Meng Xu turned to Chi Wei, whose half-face was bleeding, and snarled.

“Stand up straight! It’s your turn after him!”

Thanks to Meng Xu’s efforts, only after seeing the favorability drop back to -100 points did he finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Don’t let that favorability rise again, understand?

Usually the epitome of beauty consciousness, Shen Zhaozhao now didn’t even wash her face, fearing that the sound of running water might draw the attention of the two zombies outside her door.

Her mental state was deteriorating badly.

Depression and despair swirled within her.

She felt immense suffering.

Calculating the time, it should be about now.

Thinking this, Shen Zhaozhao felt a wave of anxiety and silently prayed in her heart, “Salesman brother, when will you be here today?”

Her only hope for survival was the inexplicable daily visits from the salesman who pitched to the zombies outside.

She waited silently for the familiar voice outside the door. Soon enough, she heard that enthusiastic and familiar tone.

“Zombie brothers, I’m back! Have you considered buying a house this time? Hao Dada Real Estate has launched yet another new housing district! No worries about unfinished buildings or pre-sale scams! Trust me, Hao Dada is the largest real estate company in Heqing City. Think about it, as zombies, aren’t you tired of commuting every day? Don’t you need a good housing district…”

Meng Xu’s voice once again echoed through the eighth-floor corridor. Hearing it, Shen Zhaozhao felt a surge of joy. She immediately pressed against the bathroom door, cracked it open slightly, and peeked out.

As she saw, the suited Meng Xu stood once again in front of the glass, enthusiastically conversing with her two zombified colleagues.

The difference this time was that the leaflets he held were about new housing pre-sales instead of swimming, fitness, and legal services.

Other than that, nothing had changed.

Hearing this enthusiastic voice, Shen Zhaozhao was overwhelmed with excitement. The face, which bore a hint of madness, even felt somewhat endearing to her.

Just as she was contemplating how to get Meng Xu’s attention, she suddenly heard a crashing sound.

“Hmm?”

The noise was abrupt.

Shen Zhaozhao realized that the glass wall separating the corridor from the office was giving way under the constant pounding and pressing of the two zombies.

With a crash, it shattered, scattering glass everywhere, and the two zombies were freed from the office!

Seeing this, Shen Zhaozhao’s heart tightened.

Because Meng Xu was standing right in front of the glass wall!

If those two zombies got to her, who else would come to her rescue?!

The thought filled Shen Zhaozhao with despair.

“Roar!”

The two zombies broke through the glass wall, eager to pounce on Meng Xu!

Both attacked simultaneously and caught him unaware!

If this were a normal person, they might have been startled and possibly knocked down by the zombies immediately. Even with a weapon, it would be hard to fend off their overwhelming strength in such a surprise attack.

Shen Zhaozhao closed her eyes, unable to bear the sight of what she feared would happen next.

However, the expected screams didn’t come. Instead, there was a cheerful exclamation: “Alright, alright, you’re so eager to see the new houses! No pushing; queue up nicely, one at a time.”

Hearing this, Shen Zhaozhao opened her eyes in astonishment.

She saw Meng Xu wielding the baseball bat, swinging it effortlessly to send a zombie flying.

One swing, one zombie; two swings, two zombies.

After knocking the two zombies down, Meng Xu didn’t hesitate. He smoothly pulled out his wrench and began smashing their heads.

Blood splattered and brains splashed.

In an instant, his suit was drenched in blood.

“Whew~”

Not long after, Meng Xu stood up, stretched lazily, and glanced inside the company through the broken glass wall. When he saw the restroom, his eyes lit up.

Meanwhile, Shen Zhaozhao felt an overwhelming surge of fear.

What a terrifying lunatic!

She felt that starving to death might not be so bad after all.

If she got caught by this lunatic, she couldn’t even imagine what horrors awaited her!

She had seen zombie shows!

Hesitant, she wasn’t sure whether to shut the bathroom door.

But it was already too late. Meng Xu had noticed her.

In the next second, Meng Xu sprinted at full speed, practically flying over the shattered glass shards, and reached the bathroom door. Before Shen Zhaozhao could close it, he wedged it open and shoved dozens of leaflets inside.

“Miss! Interested in swimming, fitness, legal disputes, or new home presales?”

【Occupation: Clerk】
【Level: 2】

Alright, alright, I’ve run into a living person.

Seeing the information provided, Meng Xu beamed, already thinking up numerous possibilities.

This is a huge win, folks!
