There is no difference between once and multiple times

"Eugene, who are you really?" he asked bleakly, just wanting to know the truth before dying.

Eugene walked over, leaning close to his ear, as if about to say something. But in the next moment, Eugene lifted him up with force and threw him into the portal.

Dash disappeared instantly.

Was it fun to mock a dying man?

Interesting?

Eugene looked at the basement floor stained with blood and sighed. He resolved to avoid killing people at home in the future. If he had to kill, he would find a way to throw them directly into the portal to avoid the hassle of cleaning up.

But it was too late now.

He took out a cloth and started cleaning.

It was still him. Could anyone else bring out a bucket of water so casually? Water was now as essential as food, enjoying the same status as life itself!

After more than ten minutes, Eugene finally cleaned up the blood stains. He had to take another shower and then went to bed.

"From now on, try not to kill people at home," he said to himself again.

One night passed, and it was the fifth day of the apocalypse.

At 8 a.m., the outside was still shrouded in dense fog, incredibly dim.

Hail was still falling, but much smaller now, and not as heavy. The ground was covered with a thick layer of ice, combined with hailstones, making it extremely slippery and toxic, making it impossible for anyone to go out.

No rescue.

It was already the fifth day, and people's patience was wearing thin. Greater despair engulfed everyone.

An undeniable problem was that this natural disaster might not end soon, and rescue was unlikely to appear. So how would everyone save themselves?

Everyone became increasingly restless.

Eugene brought the leopard to the garage, where the atmosphere was unusually tense. Everyone looked at each other with strange eyes, as if they were not neighbors who had lived together for many years, but enemies!

It seemed that they would have to walk the dog at night from now on.

Facing a head-on confrontation, with Eugene's bullet reserve in his otherworldly space, he could certainly slaughter the entire neighborhood several times over. But the question was, who would be foolish enough to come at him head-on?

Eugene didn't have eyes on his back. What if someone shot him in the back?

As they say, it's easy to dodge a spear, but hard to dodge a hidden arrow!

Eugene felt it was better to be careful.

Why bother?

Having a dog was just to alleviate boredom, not to invite trouble.

Moreover!

Eugene noticed that many people were eyeing him covetously.

Obviously, after showing off his "wealth" in the group, he had attracted the attention of many.

Eugene didn't care about this. If you have the guts, try breaking into my safe house!

Many people came to "visit", making life less boring.

And he could even direct some dramas.

Eugene had already planned it out.

After a walk around, Eugene was about to take the leopard back when he suddenly became cold seeing three people.

Christian, Cathy's husband, and Isabel.

Interesting.

When Cathy and the two girls saw Eugene, their faces turned red, and they lowered their heads, afraid of being seen through by the other two.

But when Christian saw Eugene, his eyes lit up, and he hurried over.

"Eugene!" he called out loudly, making it clear to everyone nearby.

At the words, many people showed schadenfreude expressions.

Yeah, although they were suffering now, wasn't Eugene even more unlucky?

Won the jackpot of 500 million, and now he could only spend a few tens of millions at most, leaving a lot of money sitting idle in the bank!

This Christian was so unlucky that he always bothered Eugene when he was in a bad mood.

Christian strode over to Eugene with a grin. "Feeling particularly anxious lately, with money but nowhere to spend it? But looking at the situation, it seems like this natural disaster isn't going to end anytime soon!"

"So, you're reveling in others' misfortune?" Eugene shook his head. "Is this human nature? Even when I'm suffering, as long as others are more miserable than me, I become happy?"

Eugene was speechless. "So, if my money goes down the drain, it's like a feast for you?"

"The key is, I'm loaded with resources right now!" Christian persisted.

"Do you have to provoke me like this?"

"Fine, then don't blame me for humiliating you in public."

However, before Eugene could speak, Cathy quickly intervened, saying, "Come on, honey, we're all facing this disaster together. We're neighbors in this community; we should help each other instead of being like this."

Isabel chimed in, "Yeah, that's right!"

Both women feared angering Eugene, knowing that he might refuse to engage in future transactions with them.

"Oh, Christian, Christian, you could still have half a packet of instant noodles for breakfast this morning. Who do you think provided that?" Both women urged Christian on one hand, while desperately signaling to Eugene with their eyes, meaning, "Please don't get angry. We can talk about it later. Please don't lose your temper now, and don't mention our relationship."

At that moment, the leopard sniffed at Cathy and Isabel, wagging its tail enthusiastically.

Dogs have a keen sense of smell and discerned that the scent on Eugene came from both women.

Seeing the leopard's enthusiasm, both women realized what was going on. They saw the leopard was not only affectionate towards themselves but also towards Cathy (Isabel). They exchanged a glance, blushing.

This is embarrassing.

At that moment, they wished they could dig a hole and hide in it. What should they call each other in the future? Good sisters?

Eugene couldn't help but laugh, surprised that the two women could infer each other's identities from the leopard's reaction. He naturally didn't mind and instead turned to Cathy.

Seeing this, Christian immediately reached out to intervene. "What are you trying to do?"

His wife was too beautiful, and also flirtatious. He didn't know how many men would be interested in her. He had always worried and been suspicious.

Eugene pushed Christian aside with a flick of his hand. Christian, whose body had been weakened by alcohol, couldn't match his strength and was easily pushed aside. Eugene then leaned towards Cathy's ear and whispered, "Come with me, or... I'll reveal our relationship."

Cathy blushed uncontrollably.

Eugene turned and left.

"Don't you dare talk to my wife!" Christian yelled, stomping his feet. "You jerk, stop right there! Stop!"

Cathy signaled to Isabel with her eyes, asking for her help, while trying to placate her husband. "Honey, don't get angry. We don't need to stoop to his level. You'll just ruin your own mood. Let's go home; it's cold outside!"

Christian grumbled angrily as they left.

He only dared to be tough with his mouth. Would he really dare to fight Eugene? He had been scared off in the elevator incident.

The three of them returned to their building. Suddenly, Cathy said, "Honey, you two go upstairs first. I'll figure out a way to get some food."

Christian looked at his wife suspiciously. Eugene whispered something to you just now, and now you want to leave alone? What's going on? He might be a gambler, but he's not stupid!

Isabel quickly offered, "I'll accompany sister-in-law."

Christian thought for a moment and nodded. "Let Isabel go with you."

With her cousins accompanying her, Cathy probably wouldn't go back to Eugene.

Cathy, feeling resigned, reluctantly agreed.

Christian went upstairs by himself, while Cathy and Isabel headed back.

The atmosphere was tense and awkward, with silence prevailing.

What would happen if they went to Eugene's place?

Both women knew it deep down.

Going alone might have been manageable, but going together, especially given their relationship as sisters-in-law, was unbearable.

"How about you go back first, sister-in-law?" Isabel suggested, with her own selfish motives.

If they went to Eugene's, she could have a hearty meal first. If they waited at home, they'd only have instant noodles.

And she definitely didn't want instant noodles! Besides, what's the difference between doing something once or doing it several times?
