In the spring of 2026, the end has quietly come, strange events swept the world, order collapsed, and people's hearts became the most unpredictable abyss.
Delivery boy Li Jinye, an ordinary fat man who has been made a little philistine and even a little wretched by life, bumped into the abnormality of Su Qing, a beauty on the ninth floor, while delivering orders, which became the prelude to his glimpse of this disaster. When the people around him began to become strange - the beauty in the nightclub wearing suspenders had strange eyes, the kind-hearted bun shop proprietress had black dirt hidden under her fingernails, and even the shadow of the neighbor was no longer obedient, Li Jin also relied on the intuition of Japanese readers at the end of the decade to hoard supplies crazily and prepare an ax for self-defense, just to save the dog's life in the chaos.
But human greed is more deadly than weirdness. Neighbors who had nodded and smiled in the past came in droves to snatch his grain reserves; young women who had begged him for mercy soon joined forces with others to set up a trap. A bloody confrontation in the corridor made Li Jin fully understand: In this cannibalistic world, kindness cannot buy life, and only ruthlessness and determination can survive.
When he wields an ax to chop open the hypocrisy of human nature and escapes from the familiar rental building with his luggage on his back, will the road ahead be the unknown outside the city, more lurking weirdness, or a purgatory of cannibalism? Can a little person who just wants to save his life find his own way of survival in the torrent of doomsday?
