The apocalypse arrives, and when everyone wakes up, they're aboard an unfamiliar train.
Some start with bottled water, some with weapons, and some with an entire train car.
Chen Jin starts with a broken door.
There are monsters outside, no water inside, and the crackling announcement keeps warning them:
The first stop is in seven days.
Anyone who runs out of fuel will be considered derailed.
Just as he's about to freeze to death, entries appear before his eyes.
[Old green train car]
[Insulation damaged]
[Right-side door seal failed]
[One refresh available]
Chen Jin stares at the last line in silence.
Fine.
While everyone else starts out trying to survive, he starts out fixing a train.
But later, everyone realizes that the drafty, broken car that started out leaking air has become the only climate-controlled fortress on the apocalyptic tracks.
The more I read, the more I look forward to what will happen next. I hope the author won't be too cliche.
