A swift and decisive victory in the early stages, a post-apocalyptic survival story in America!

Li Qi slumped onto the single sofa in the living room, staring blankly at the glittering system interface in front of him.

The oppression brought by death reached its peak at this moment, and the expected joy of completing the task was not so intense.

[System task perfectly completed! Task rewards are being distributed!]

[Quest completion reward: Health Capsule*1, Free Attribute Points*3.]

[Perfect Mission Reward: *Accountant.]

[Accountant: You possess extraordinary logical thinking abilities and are adept at finding key clues to break through problems from the smallest details. Even if you don't pursue an accounting career, you could become an excellent chess player or detective.]

After receiving the mission rewards, a flood of unfamiliar accounting and tax knowledge rushed into Li Qi's mind, causing him to feel dizzy, but he managed to stay calm.

But when he swallowed the red and green health capsule, a strong wave of dizziness hit him, and Li Qi felt the world spinning before his eyes. He fainted on the spot.

After an unknown amount of time, Li Qi opened his eyes, staring blankly at everything before him. It took him a long time to come to his senses before he quickly brought up the system panel.

[Host Information]

[Lee Chi-White]

【…】

Status: Healthy

Life expectancy: 65 years

[Endurance: 5]

【Strength: 4】

[Agility: 5]

【Spirit: 6】

[Bound Skills: Firearms Proficiency ★; Mixed Martial Arts ★★; Driving Skills ★; Imposter ★; Accountant ★]

[Disease: None.]

Feeling the unusual changes in his body, and seeing the "near death" status on the panel turn into "healthy," and his lifespan increase from 27 to 65 years, Li Qi was moved to tears.

He ran into the first-floor public restroom like a madman, looked at his still withered but now radiant face in the mirror, and stroked his still dry and split but now noticeably shiny golden hair. He couldn't help but burst into tears of joy!

At least I don't have to die right away!

I'm a hero again!

After being excited for a while, Li Qi gradually calmed down and hesitated about how to allocate the next three free attribute points.

Li Qi was undecided whether to focus all his efforts on boosting morale at once or distribute them evenly across several weaker areas.

Strength is not very useful. If you have a gun, you can just pull the trigger. There is no point in using strength.

Agility and flexibility don't seem to be of much use.

Why not increase endurance and see if it can extend lifespan?

Li Qi shook his head, learning from his mistake. He decided to leave those three points for later; his current six points of mental energy were enough for him to think things through.

The super brain has no use yet, so there's no rush.

With the imminent existential crisis averted, we can deal with the rest later.

After nearly a day of tension, Li Qi suddenly relaxed and felt incredibly tired. He longed to sleep and have a hearty meal...

This must be what it feels like to be alive! I'm no longer a walking corpse!

The changes brought about by the body's recovery are still unfolding. I had a simple breakfast, and now that it's past noon, I'm feeling hungry again.

Hunger was intense, and a wave of exhaustion washed over me.

Knowing that these were all natural signs of the body's functions being awakened after recovering its health, Li Qi was not flustered at all. He first went to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and began to look for food.

There was no food in the refrigerator's crisper drawer, but there were quite a few frozen items such as steaks in the freezer, and in the cupboard, there were also many neatly stacked convenience foods such as oatmeal and biscuits.

It's strange that there's so much food stored up in the kitchen, even though it shows no signs of use...

Li Qi microwaved a steak, and while grilling it, he pondered his future.

He ate a simple dinner: a steak and a bowl of oatmeal. That was enough.

From birth to death, from death to rebirth, and through countless twists and turns to this moment, Li Qi's desires are not complicated; just being alive is enough.

During the meal, perhaps due to the enhancement of his "accountant" skills, Li Qi looked around the house, and the strange feeling became even stronger.

The room's furnishings were noticeably too simple, reflecting the homeowner's inner turmoil and yearning for order.

The floor was spotless, and there were no signs of habitation or use in the entire room. Clearly, the homeowner did not live here on a daily basis.

The kitchen was overflowing with food, but there was no sign of cooking or preparing anything...

Countless clues flooded his mind, and a wealth of previously unseen knowledge entered his memory. Li Qi felt as if he had traveled through time again; everything before him was both familiar and strange.

Li Qi's mind raced, and he quickly realized the danger.

He was not completely out of danger, and the risk was imminent. There were no plants in the house that needed watering, and if the security guards came to investigate, his lie would be exposed.

The security guards will definitely come to the door. The security guards in wealthy areas are more conscientious and responsible than the homeowners' parents, because they don't want to lose their jobs due to complaints.

……

A black Chevrolet Suburban was parked in front of Roger Stern's yard.

A long-haired beauty in a black leather jacket and pants stepped out of the car. With a wave of her hand, her three companions separated, each holding a submachine gun, and surrounded the hospital.

The beautiful woman was tall and slender with a slim waist and long legs. Her body, clad in a black leather jacket, exuded unparalleled explosive power. Wearing plain black sneakers, she moved nimbly and leaped lightly, easily vaulting over the wall to the doorway. She then gently took out her key and unlocked the door.

The door opened, and the beautiful woman entered first, holding a silver-white Beretta M92F pistol in front of her, pointing it at the dining room.

"Waaah!" Roger Stern groaned and shook his head frantically, signaling the beautiful woman to quickly untie him.

The woman in black breathed a sigh of relief, went over and ripped the tape off Roger's mouth, saying speechlessly, "What's going on? The dignified 'Scalpel' of the Crippled Gang has actually been kidnapped?"

Roger turned to watch her cut the IV tube wrapped around her wrist with a knife, and said with annoyance, "Who would have thought that a kind woman, rushing to find a vet for her pet in the early hours of the morning, would be a homeless man with a gun? Besides, how could I have imagined that someone would be so heartless as to attack a kind doctor like me?"

She then praised, "She truly is my dearest sister. She so easily sensed I was in danger and came to my house to rescue me in such a short time!"

"I'm afraid Father will kill you if he finds out about this! You idiot!"

The woman rolled her eyes, casually tossed the knife back into the kitchen sink, clapped her hands, and walked out: "Learn from this, don't believe other people's lies so easily! When you go out on a house call in the middle of the night, at least bring someone with you! You're supposed to be a gangster, it's shameful to be so easily kidnapped."

Roger glared at the beautiful woman's retreating figure: "Damn Nancy! I just like rescuing animals! That doesn't mean I'm a weakling!"

"Besides, I'm a doctor! Even those Blood Gang guys wouldn't lay a hand on a doctor! Now you know how inhuman this guy is, right?"

They went out together, got into the Saab Ban, and Nancy, driving, asked Roger in the passenger seat, "What do we do now? Who are they? Are they from the Blood Gang?"

Roger fastened his seatbelt and shook his head. "No, he's just a very eccentric homeless man, and a particularly sexy one at that when he's dressed as a woman. If he hadn't insulted my intelligence and driven off with my impala, I might have even started to like him!"

Nancy was speechless for a moment: "So, what's next?"

Roger said casually, "Of course, we'll issue a city-wide warrant, find my car, catch this guy, make him wear women's clothes, and make him my devoted little darling!"
