An hour before rebirth in the apocalypse, Lin Shen bound the sign-in system. While others were robbing a supermarket, he checked into a convenience store and picked up a military backpack. While others hide from zombies, he signs in to the police station and gets a pistol with unlimited ammunition. When others were chased by mutated zombies, he shot them in the head and leapfrogged to kill them. When the truth of the apocalypse emerged, Lin Shen discovered that this disaster was deliberately caused by someone. And the "savior" he knelt down to beg for in his previous life was one of the masterminds behind the scenes. This time, Lin Shen stopped kneeling. He wanted those people to kneel down and beg him.
Reader comments
This is an apocalyptic novel that you won't be able to put down after reading it in one sitting.
On the surface, it has the "Rebirth + System" cheat that comes standard with online novels - Lin Shen returns to the hour before the end of the world, binds the system, signs in to the convenience store to get supplies, and signs in to the police station to get unlimited ammunition pistols. But as you read on, you will find that the core of this book is far more than just fun.
The character Lin Shen is the brightest point in the book. He went from someone who just wanted to live to someone who wanted others to live too. In the early stage, he was cold-blooded, decisive, and ruthless in killing. In the later stage, he started farming, raising chickens, and accompanying his niece to catch insects. This change was not sudden, it happened slowly through choices - when he decided not to kill Chen Zhiyuan and let him stand trial, when he decided to believe in Su Wan, Lu Ming, and those who were willing to fight with him, when he finally put down the gun and picked up the water scoop. He is no longer the Avenger driven by hatred, but a Guardian driven by love and responsibility.
The discussion of "justice" in the book is also very in-depth. Lin Shen arrested a hundred members of the organization but did not kill any of them. He said: "I am not a judge, I am just an arrester." The trial is left to the law, time, and those who have been hurt. This kind of restraint is especially rare in apocalyptic themes - many similar works have protagonists who kill decisively and feel good, but lack this respect for human nature.
The character of Zhou Yuanshan is also worth pondering. He is the virus creator, the founder of the organization, the principal, the observer, and the ultimate atonement. He fled to Southeast Asia and walked in the jungle for two years, wanting to die but not being able to. Finally he came back, took all the research materials with him, walked into the basement, and stood trial. This character gives the whole book an extra layer of tragedy - some mistakes can never be undone, but at least they can be faced.
Su Wan, Lin Xi, Xiao Yu, Zhang Wei, Lao Zhao, Lu Ming, every supporting role has flesh and blood. They are not tools or foils to the protagonist, but real people living in this apocalypse. Lin Xi would never speak, and would only stand at the door with a bowl of noodles and wait for Lin Shen to come back. This detail runs through the fifty-six items in the book. From the first bowl to the last bowl, the noodles still taste the same—poached eggs, chopped green onions, and steaming hot. A bowl of noodles is what home means.
The ending is heartwarming, but not a cheap happy ending. The apocalypse is over, zombies have turned back into humans, cities have begun to be rebuilt, and children can grow strawberries in the sun. But those who died will not be resurrected, and those sins committed will not be forgotten. Judgment continues, redemption continues, and life continues.
If you like apocalyptic themes, if you want to see a protagonist with brains, warmth, and growth, and if you want to leave something behind after you finish having fun, this book is worth reading.
In the last chapter, Lin Shen stood on the roof of the building, Su Wan leaned on his shoulder, and Xiao Yu shouted "Uncle will plant strawberries for me tomorrow" downstairs. At that moment, you will feel that no matter how scary the end of the world is, it will be nothing as long as these people are around.
