He reached out his right hand and pulled out a small red bottle from his pocket. The young man quickly raised the bottle and aimed it at the old man's eyes, spraying a burst of red liquid directly onto his face.
"Ah!" The old man let out a terrible scream, covering his eyes with his hands and stumbling backward in pain. He felt as if his eyes were on fire, unable to open them, and his facial skin burned as if it had been scorched.
"Old man, what's wrong?" Hearing the old man's cry, the elderly woman, who had been lying in bed, struggled to move her frail body, trying to sit up to see what had happened. However, her weakened state prevented her from rising after several attempts.
At that moment, the young man pulled open the window and entered the room. He put the small bottle back into his pocket and took out a switchblade. He quickly approached the old man and slashed at his neck with one swift motion.
The old man didn’t even have time to scream before he collapsed heavily onto the floor, lifeless. The young man then walked over to the bed and swiftly ended the elderly woman's life as well.
Once both elders were dead, he dragged their bodies to the window and tossed them out. After ensuring everything was taken care of, he shook his hands and turned back into the room, rummaging through drawers in search of something.
When he opened the refrigerator in the kitchen, surprise crossed his face, quickly replaced by delight. "No wonder those two old geezers haven't starved yet; they have so much food stored in here."
This young man was named Zheng Zhilei, a resident of the same apartment building where he lived on the fifth floor. Due to the density of toxic gas being heavier than air, it accumulated more in lower areas. Zheng Zhilei's room was affected by a significant amount of toxic gas due to its lower height.
Long-term exposure to this gas not only caused him severe coughing but also damaged his skin. Red rashes appeared on both his face and arms.
The rashes were both painful and itchy, making it impossible for him to resist scratching at them. His hard nails tore into his skin, leaving behind streaks of blood.
After spending more than a month in such a room, Zheng Zhilei felt unbearable suffering. With the food at home dwindling to almost nothing, he began to entertain the thought of robbing his neighbor's house.
However, it wouldn't be easy for him to break down the neighbor's door alone. Not to mention that if there were too many people inside, he could easily end up being killed instead.
Thus, Zheng Zhilei hesitated to put his robbery plan into action.
On the night of May 20th, after a strange light appeared in the sky, Zheng Zhilei discovered that a peculiar energy seemed to have emerged within his body. Without needing anyone to teach him, he instinctively knew how to control this energy.
Focusing his mind, Zheng Zhilei guided the energy within him with sheer willpower. Soon, he realized that his body was actually floating in mid-air.
What the hell? Could it be that I've awakened superpowers?
