Chapter 17: Disposing of the Body

Lin Shi had only driven a few hundred meters when the sound of a motorcycle engine echoed from behind.

Glancing through the rearview mirror, he saw a figure in black, wearing a helmet, and under the dim streetlights, the face was indistinct.

Lin Shi headed towards a secluded road. The motorcycle closely followed behind Lin Shi. Old Jin's face was exposed only by his eyes, and his turbid eyes revealed a murderous glint.

He had been risking his life and facing life-threatening dangers to earn a few pennies. If he could kidnap this wealthy lamb and extort tens or hundreds of millions from him, he could live a carefree life for a long time.

These rich second-generation kids were the most afraid of death; with just a little coercion and some compromising photos, they would obediently pay for their lives.

Old Jin had done this many times before and had never failed.

Lin Shi's generous spending and youthful appearance had piqued Old Jin's interest.

After passing through a residential area, Old Jin revved the throttle and rushed in front of Lin Shi's car, performing a drift to block him, while secretly gripping the dagger on his leg.

As soon as Lin Shi got out of the car, he could subdue the young man in an instant.

It was only eight o'clock in the evening, still early, and although the suburbs were remote, there were still a few pedestrians in the distance.

This was a time when people were likely to let their guard down, and a typical rich second-generation kid would have already gotten out of the car, cursing and swearing.

The surveillance cameras along the way had been tampered with by Old Jin, and as long as he was quick, he could abduct the person and the car directly when they got out, making it difficult to trace back to him.

Unfortunately, Lin Shi was not an ordinary young man, but a reborn survivor who had struggled in the apocalypse and seen the darkest side of human nature!

A fierce look flashed in Lin Shi's eyes as he gripped the steering wheel.

He stepped on the gas and rammed straight ahead.

The original speed of 60 immediately soared to over 100. How many seconds does it take to cover a distance of ten meters at a speed of 100?

In the next second, Old Jin's pupils shrank as he tried to dodge, but it was too late.

"Boom!!"

A loud crash was followed by the dull thud of a heavy object hitting the ground. Old Jin was sent flying more than ten meters by the massive impact, both man and motorcycle.

The car's front end was severely damaged in the collision, with debris from the headlights scattered all over the ground, and the bumper was dented in a large area.

In contrast, Old Jin's motorcycle was even more severely damaged. Twisted motorcycle parts were scattered everywhere.

Originally prepared to maintain flexibility and facilitate a smooth escape, the motorcycle had become the main reason for Old Jin's failure on this trip.

If it had been a car, Lin Shi would have taken the trouble to drive to a deserted place before taking action.

But Old Jin, riding a motorcycle and blocking the way, was asking for death; don't blame him for a quick resolution.

Hearing the loud noise, people in the distance had already looked over, but due to the distance, they couldn't see the situation clearly.

Lin Shi calmly got out of the car and came to Old Jin's side. Old Jin, still wearing his helmet, was still conscious. He was spitting blood, his limbs twisted unnaturally, and his eyes were venomously staring at Lin Shi, but he couldn't utter a word.

He had been hunting wild geese all day, only to be pecked in the eye by a swallow. He never expected that a young man who looked to be in his twenties could be so ruthless.

Without even knowing the reason, he dared to ram like that.

Wasn't he afraid of hitting the wrong person? Lin Shi walked to within a meter of Old Jin's side and whispered, "Are you wondering why I dared to hit you? Old Jin?" Lin Shi's calmness and indifference caused Old Jin's pupils to shrink.

He had misjudged the situation; the person in front of him was not a helpless victim but a ruthless killer just like him!

"Mis...under...stand..."

Old Jin was still struggling desperately.

The impact had completely shattered his left thigh, with ribs piercing his internal organs, and his right hand was twisted and deformed from the forceful slam onto the ground, leaving him unable to move.

If he had the strength to fight back, he would have killed the young man in front of him!

In his heart, Old Jin silently swore that once he recovered from his injuries, he would make sure Lin Shi died a gruesome death!

However, Lin Shi did not give him that chance.

He squatted down, picked up a motorcycle pipe that had fallen from a motorcycle nearby, and with a terrified look in Old Jin's eyes, he thrust it into Old Jin's throat!

Old Jin's eyes nearly bulged out, his mouth opening and closing, the fierceness in his eyes as if he wanted to tear Lin Shi apart.

To his death, Old Jin couldn't understand why he wouldn't dare to kill in such a place, but Lin Shi did?

Lin Shi murmured in a low voice, "On my way here, I noticed several surveillance cameras along the road were broken. You took care of them, didn't you?"

"Thank you for preparing your own grave."

"Ho...ho..." Old Jin tried desperately to say something.

But soon, the luster in his eyes faded as he suffered a fatal injury.

With a thought, Lin Shi collected Old Jin's body and all the scattered debris at the scene, along with his own car, into his space.

On the deserted road, when people who heard the commotion arrived, they only saw a glaring pool of blood.

Some vigilant residents called the police, who extracted the blood and found it to be human.

But there was no evidence at the scene to prove a murder had occurred.

All surveillance was destroyed, with no victims or witnesses.

The case couldn't even be filed and was just ended.

Lin Shi walked a distance and then took a taxi back home.

This was not his first time killing someone, so he had nothing to fear.

In the apocalypse, everyone is a hunter and everyone is prey.

He was no good person; if someone dared to scheme against him, they should not blame him for being ruthless!

After returning to the warehouse, Lin Shi took a shower and went to bed.

The next day, Lin Shi glanced at the time; today was already March 7th, the seventh day since he was reborn.

He checked the international gold prices for today and found that they had risen by five yuan in the past two days.

So he decided to sell the gold today and cash out to continue his next stockpiling plan.

After morning exercises and breakfast, Lin Shi took a car to the bank.

Lin Shi had been a celebrity at the bank the other day, and as soon as he walked in with a suitcase, he was recognized.

"Mr. Lin, what business would you like to handle?"

Ever since Chu Xiaodie's leak of customer information was exposed by Lin Shi, although the bank did not publicize it for the sake of reputation, Chu Xiaodie was secretly fired.

Now Lin Shi's customer service manager is another man around thirty years old, named Feng Jian.

This was after Feng Jian learned about Lin Shi's "potential" and bought a pack of cigarettes to fight for the position from his leader.

Feng Jian, who was originally handling a credit card for a customer, brightened up at the sight of Lin Shi.

Seeing the suitcase Lin Shi was carrying, his eyes almost sparkled with excitement.

This posture, this suitcase, wasn't it exactly the same as the day Lin Shi angrily smashed 25 million to buy gold bars?

At that time, when he heard that Chu Xiaodie's client was going to buy 25 million gold bars from her, he and other customer service managers were so envious and jealous.

He didn't expect such a good thing to come to him so soon!
