Bai Yaoyao discovered that her space still had preservation functionality. The leftover obster lobster, when taken out again after a long time, was still hot—exactly the same as when she had put it in.
Knowing about this function made Bai Yaoyao even happier. This life wouldn’t have to be so bitter.
Before leaving, she didn’t forget to purchase a batch of seafood specialties in Australia. She went directly to the local wholesale market and ordered $2 million worth of seafood.
Especially the obster lobster—Fatty loved it, and she loved it too.
As for other items like salmon, black bream, yellowtail fish, abalone, squid, octopus, sardines, queen crabs, coral crabs, king crabs, sea urchins, conch, scallops, etc…
She bought plenty, directly clearing out the entire seafood market.
After having everything delivered to the warehouse and confirming that the people had left, Bai Yaoyao directly stored it all in her space.
Next, she went to buy some cooked seafood. Her cooking skills were only at the level of instant noodles with an egg added. Having ingredients alone was useless.
Her brothers’ cooking skills were equally matched—edible was enough. Of course, whether it was actually edible was another matter. Aside from roasting meat outdoors, they couldn’t cook anything else. Everyone was used to being fed by their master.
So she directly went to the hotel Fatty frequented and ordered 10,000 portions of obster lobster and 10,000 portions of seafood mixed grill.
As for other foods, she would have to wait until returning to China. When it came to cuisine, if China claimed second place, no one dared claim first.
Immediately after, she drove to purchase 100,000 boxes of lanolin oil, 30,000 sweaters, 30,000 fur coats, 30,000 pairs of cotton boots, and 30,000 cotton quilts.
In the second year of the apocalypse, temperatures plummeted, with the lowest reaching minus sixty or seventy degrees Celsius. These all became life-saving necessities. Forget reaching out to fight zombies—it was genuinely difficult to even stretch out a hand.
Fortunately, as superpowers leveled up, people’s heat and cold resistance abilities improved significantly.
She also bought 100,000 cans of Australian infant formula. Although it was meant for babies, no one said older “babies” couldn’t drink it. Anything that could supplement nutrition became hard currency in the apocalypse.
Since her people were currently in Australia, it wouldn’t be right not to buy some specialties to bring back.
After storing everything in her space, Bai Yaoyao slightly frowned at the haphazardly arranged supplies.
Taking out her phone, she opened 1988 and placed orders with five different stores for 10,000 industrial-grade stainless steel storage shelves each.
She specified a uniform style: 7 meters long, 50 centimeters wide, and 5 meters high with six levels. Without expedited shipping, it would take about a month to receive them. Expedited shipping would cost quite a bit more. Bai Yaoyao calculated the timing—it was about right. By then, she would be back in China and could receive the goods. So she didn’t choose expedited shipping and decisively paid the deposit.
Satisfied, she boarded a flight to
Japan.
Bai Yaoyao was dressed like a student, with her hair in a bun and a small rabbit hair clip—looking obedient and cute.
After arriving, Bai Yaoyao directly took a taxi to the venue of Sato Corporation’s new product launch. She had learned online that Sato Shinichi would be attending today’s event.
She planned to join the crowd and see if there was a chance to complete her mission.
Just as she reached the entrance, she saw Sato Shinichi getting out of his car. Bai Yaoyao’s eyes lit up—this car was fucking handsome!
A modified Mercedes S-Class Alpine Armoring Mercedes armored car. Just looking at it was thrilling, but the price was too beautiful. Bai Yaoyao, who worked hard for her money, couldn’t bring herself to spend on it.
After inwardly sighing a couple of times, she followed the crowd inside. The launch hadn’t started yet; Sato Shinichi was probably in the VIP lounge.
Bai Yaoyao felt around for a while before finding the place. She knocked out a water delivery service worker, changed into her uniform, made some disguises, and avoided the surveillance cameras to enter the lounge.
She laced all the tea with lethal poison. Bai Yaoyao always believed that as an assassin, you didn’t necessarily have to fight and kill every day. Using your brain to solve problems was better.
Entering the room, Bai Yaoyao set down the water and very naturally and sweetly glanced at Sato Shinichi in the main seat.
Sato Shinichi gave a mischievous smile and deliberately paused while picking up his teacup: “Come find me when you’re done.””
Bai Yaoyao shyly nodded. Watching Sato Shinichi drink a full cup of poison, she couldn’t help but feel emotional—this guy was way too fucking easy to kill. 600 million, acquired.
So before the bodyguards could react, she preemptively struck. The four bodyguards didn’t even have time to call for backup before dying under Bai Yaoyao’s blade. She casually took the car keys, thinking she might as well take advantage of the opportunity.
After disposing of the evidence, she took a photo of Sato Shinichi and sent it to Wang Fugui, then slipped into her space. Having a superpower and not using it would be stupid. Bai Yaoyao peacefully ate lunch.
She practiced her superpower for a while. Although her space had mutated, her superpower level was still tier one. Without Crystals, she couldn’t level up, but she could improve her proficiency.
This was second nature to Bai Yaoyao. It didn’t feel like she had practiced for long before it was already late at night.
Changing into black clothes and putting on a mask and hat, she left her space and slipped out. Seeing the Alpine Armoring still parked by the roadside, she smiled—extra income.
Probably Sato Shinichi’s death had thrown everyone into chaos, and no one had gotten around to dealing with it.
Pulling out the car keys, she drove away.
Driving to the surveillance-free suburbs, she entered her space with both the car and herself, and had a good sleep.
The next day.
Bai Yaoyao changed into a new outfit and began a major shopping spree.
Wang Fugui had already transferred the remaining payment and, for some reason, added an extra 200 million.
Now she had 1.6 billion in her personal account alone. She had spent nearly 70 million in Australia, but there was still her master’s 500 million USD. It should be enough for stockpiling.
Just then, her phone rang.
Wang Fugui.
“Assassin sis, you’re fucking amazing! The day after you said you’d take the mission, Sato’s dead!” Wang Fugui shouted loudly.
Bai Yaoyao had to move the phone away from her ear.
“You gave an extra 200 million!”
“Haha, you deserve it. This job was beautifully done. Are you still in Japan? There’s another mission, you—”
Bai Yaoyao directly refused: “No time, not taking it.”
“Mission reward is 10 billion!”
“Tell me about it.” Bai Yaoyao’s old face reddened.
Wang Fugui happily said: “Blow up the Yasukuni Shrine!”
Bai Yaoyao was speechless. This kid really… really loved his country.
But she was quite interested in this mission too—definitely not because of the mere one billion. Definitely not.
“Accepted,” Bai Yaoyao said.
“Hahahaha, as expected of the number one sister on the assassin rankings! Fucking amazing!” Wang Fugui said joyfully.
Bai Yaoyao hung up the phone directly. After thinking, she called Xiaomi. Xiaomi was active year-round in Southeast Asia and should have resources.
“Yao sis!”
“Can you get me a Caz287 bomb? I’m in Japan.” Hearing Xiaomi’s voice, Bai Yaoyao felt like a missing piece inside her had suddenly returned.
In her previous life, Xiaomi hadn’t awakened a superpower. When surrounded by zombies, to avoid burdening everyone, he had hugged a bomb and run toward the zombie horde, perishing together with them.
Now, everyone was alive! So good!
“Whoa, my Yao sis, what do you want to do! This isn’t a joke—if it blows, without helicopter support, how will you escape? It can’t be timed!” Xiaomi said in surprise.
“Don’t worry, I have a way,” Bai Yaoyao replied.
“1019 Ida Avenue. Go there and just mention my name. No need to pay—they owe me a life.” Hearing Bai Yaoyao’s calm tone, Xiaomi stopped worrying. Yao sis’s self-preservation ability was even stronger than Fatty’s—no mistake about it.
