Zhang Yi emptied the entire Walmart South China warehouse!

Goods worth billions of dollars all entered his mysterious space.

However, he feigned ignorance and immediately reported to Walmart's top management.

Soon, this news spread among all the senior managers in Walmart's South China region.

A large number of leaders, shocked, rushed to the scene one after another and alerted the police to handle this situation.

Zhang Yi wasn't worried about being exposed in the slightest.

After all, in just two hours, the entire warehouse's worth of goods worth billions of dollars had vanished. Such an occurrence was simply unbelievable.

Even if the police conducted a thorough investigation, they wouldn't be able to uncover the truth in a short period.

Nevertheless, he still pretended to be nervous and terrified and cooperated with the police investigation.

After a night - long interrogation, Zhang Yi was released.

The police were also highly suspicious of this matter.

They had investigated the surveillance videos both inside and outside the warehouse.

Although the interior videos had been shut off, it was impossible to steal millions of cubic meters of goods without leaving a single trace.

However, upon reviewing the videos around the warehouse, they found no sign of any vehicles passing by.

In other words, the billions - worth of goods either disappeared out of thin air or... it was Walmart itself involved in an embezzlement scheme.

Logically speaking, the latter seemed more plausible.

After all, unless there was a supernatural event, there was no way to explain how millions of cubic meters of goods could vanish without a trace within just two hours.

As for ordinary employees like Zhang Yi, although they did arouse some suspicion.

But without being able to clarify the logical conundrum of the goods' disappearance, even if there were issues with the internal staff, that wasn't the primary concern.

Zhang Yi was ordered not to leave Tianhai City in the short term and to be available for the police and Walmart's internal investigation at all times.

Zhang Yi was highly cooperative and was subsequently released.

Upon returning home, Zhang Yi peeked outside through the blinds of the floor - to - ceiling window.

Today was December 8th, and there were only four days left until the Ice Age arrived.

For the next few days, he just needed to stay at home and do nothing, and he could coast through the rest of his life.

Thinking of the billions - worth of goods in the mysterious space that contained almost everything one could need in life, Zhang Yi felt an overwhelming sense of security.

He returned to the bedroom and lay down. After a whole night of chaos and interrogation, he was rather tired.

...

Zhang Yi slept until dusk. When he turned on the TV, the news was reporting the theft at the Walmart South China warehouse.

Due to the massive loss of goods in this theft and its extreme oddity, major news stations across the country were all covering the story.

"Such a large warehouse was emptied in just a few hours. It must be an inside job!"

"It must be the work of insiders. It's highly likely that Walmart's top management did it to defraud the insurance."

"Those are millions of cubic meters of goods. Even with large trucks transporting them, it would be impossible to complete in one night."

Zhang Yi smiled faintly. Before the end of the world arrived, no one would know the answer to this mystery.

In the following days, Zhang Yi remained at home and didn't venture out.

He knew that time was running out for this world.

For safety's sake, he wouldn't leave his room without permission.

During this time, the police and investigators from Walmart's headquarters summoned him for questioning.

Although they suspected that Zhang Yi's behavior that night was somewhat suspicious.

Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

But first, the investigation time was limited, and second, there was no conclusive evidence. While they had their doubts, they couldn't arrest Zhang Yi.

During this period, some acquaintances messaged Zhang Yi, inquiring about the inside scoop, but Zhang Yi managed to deceive them all.

Finally, December 12th arrived.

The gamma - ray passed by the Blue Star at two o'clock in the morning. It was just a fleeting moment, but the impact on the planet was catastrophic.

Zhang Yi had sealed the room completely several hours in advance, and the fireplace had already been lit.

Because soon, with the depletion of energy, air - conditioners and heaters would cease to function.

All heating methods would have to rely on the most primitive means.

At two o'clock, he sat on the sofa in front of the large floor - to - ceiling window, a bottle of beer in hand, staring intently out of the window.

Suddenly, at the edge of the sky, a flash of white light appeared. It was the middle of the night, yet the earth was as bright as dusk.

But this light lasted only a brief two seconds before fading away.

Most people were asleep at this time and thus didn't notice this momentary alteration.

However, Zhang Yi, who was aware of what this meant, felt a chill run down his spine.

He took a big swig of the beer. The refreshing Budweiser provided him with a bit of composure.

Zhang Yi thought for a moment and tossed a few more pieces of high - quality firewood into the fireplace.

He reached out and turned on the TV, watching the programs while waiting for the world to change.

Just a few minutes later, snowflakes began to fall thickly from the sky.

At first, the snowflakes were the size of fingernails, but within less than two minutes, they turned into large, fluffy snowflakes!

The wind outside the window began to howl, and the snow outside became terrifying in an instant!

Over the entire city, a sudden blizzard engulfed the sky!

This was the might of nature. When it changed, it gave no warning.

Zhang Yi began to feel a tad nervous.

Although the safe house he had built was flawless, having experienced an ice age once before, he couldn't help but worry.

He wondered if this eight - million - dollar safe house could fully withstand the impending severe temperature drop!

However, as the flames roared in the fireplace, the indoor temperature became extremely warm.

It was even a bit hot.

Zhang Yi checked the indoor temperature. It had reached 32.6 degrees.

Looking out again, the snow that blanketed the sky and earth had already submerged the entire city.

Zhang Yi felt much more at ease.

But he didn't rush to sleep. He still needed to continue observing the subsequent changes.

As for rest, there would be plenty of time later.

In less than half an hour, a thick layer of snow had accumulated on the balcony outside.

Zhang Yi opened his phone to check the news and found that the news of the sudden temperature drop had gone viral on the Internet.

The Internet was filled with complaints. Netizens were lamenting that this cold winter had arrived too early and that they hadn't had time to prepare winter clothes.

"What on earth is this weather? It's already minus ten - plus degrees!"

"Tomorrow the roads will probably be frozen solid. How are we supposed to go to work?"

Some people were also quite happy.

"With such heavy snow, we don't have to go to work tomorrow. Hooray!"

Especially some southerners were even more excited, posting pictures of themselves with the snow.

They said they had never seen such heavy snow in the south.

Zhang Yi shook his head. This was only the beginning.

In the days to come, the snow would continue for three months, and the temperature would keep dropping.

By then, they wouldn't be in such a good mood to admire the snow.
