Twelve years after the calamity, civilization has collapsed and order is being rebuilt.
In a world where even a bottle of clean water has to be carefully rationed, Lin Ye has no grand ambitions.
He doesn't want to save the world or become a hero.
He just wants to stock up on supplies, fix up his secret little hideaway, enjoy the occasional hot meal, and get a peaceful night's sleep.
Maybe even get himself a motorcycle.
But an unexpected reunion completely throws his leisurely plans into disarray.
First comes a beautiful doctor with a mysterious medical case, on the run from her pursuers. Then come more and more girls, each with secrets of her own and trouble to spare...
"Wait, this is a private shelter, not a halfway house!"
"So, is there hot water tonight?"
"...Yes, but it costs extra!"
Dangerous mutated creatures prowl the wilderness, secrets of the old civilization lie buried in the ruins, and factions fight over resources by fair means and foul.
All Lin Ye wanted was to live a little more comfortably than everyone else in this wasteland.
But somewhere along the way, his little hideaway grew livelier, his life got better, and his problems grew bigger.
And it seems the only thing he wants to protect is no longer just that little shelter.
