My MCV and Doomsday

To be frank, Xia Mei’s brother had not only committed heinous crimes, but he also had a borderline perverted desire for controlling her. In the past, a male student had been pursuing Xia Mei, and even though she was not interested, he had been very insistent. Therefore, Xia Mei’s brother had almost beaten him to death. From then on, the male student hadn’t even dared to look at her. Fortunately for the male student, he was Japanese, or else the outcome would have been tragic.

Xia Mei did not want to become Jiang Liushi’s burden. What’s more, her madman of a brother was a powerful figure in the Sword Club. In this unlawful world, her brother could do whatever he wanted.

Currently, Xia Mei was wishing for Jiang Liushi and the others to leave immediately. However, she did not expect that Jiang Zhuying would walk toward her and hold her hands suddenly.

“Sister Xia Mei, it seems that you have nowhere to go. If it’s okay with you, you are welcome to follow us temporarily. My brother’s bus is very comfortable and has soft beds. You can also take a shower…” said Jiang Zhuying while winking at Jiang Liushi.

Jiang Liushi was rendered speechless after Ran Xiyu interpreted everything for him. His naughty sister was afraid that the world was not chaotic enough, so she wanted to stir some trouble by offering Xia Mei help.

After listening to Jiang Zhuying’s proposal, the young man’s expression changed. The comfortable beds and shower had caught his attention.

“It seems that you really want to die. I should have known that you are a group of f*ckers,” said the young man. Then, he suddenly looked at Jiang Liushi. “Little boy, you’re a lucky fella! The beauties around you will sooner or later become the cause of your death. If you hadn’t provoked me, I would have let you off. Originally, I thought you saved my sister, so I was willing to let you go. You have only your sister to blame for provoking me. Although you have nothing to do with the provocation, I still feel that you are a dangerous fella. After all, Xia Mei is a naïve girl, and she can be cheated easily. I don’t want to see her fall in your clutches!”

At that, the young man waved his katana and revealed a hideous smile. “How about castrating you?”

“Brother! What are you doing?” Xia Mei shouted again. She was so anxious that beads of tears rolled down her eyes. Unfortunately, she could do nothing to stop her brother.

The young man had already pounced at Jiang Liushi, swinging his katana to kill Jiang Liushi. Nobody could see the katana’s trajectory, only a glimmer of cold light could be seen in the air. The young man took pride in his speed, as it had helped him kill behead several paranormals before they could even react.

Xia Mei cried in panic as her brother was way stronger than her. Unfortunately, she was powerless to stop him.

However, just at this moment, a crisp sound was heard. The young man’s body jolted suddenly as he felt a strong force coursing through his body, and simultaneously, he was unable to move the katana. The more he tried to move the katana, the more his hand hurt. To his terror, Jiang Liushi was holding the katana’s edge with two fingers!

‘How is it possible? My attack was faster than an Iaido practitioner!’

Time seemed to have frozen. Jiang Liushi was standing still without moving at all. He was just holding the katana calmly with his fingers, while the young man could not even pull it back.

The young man noticed that Jiang Liushi’s palm was covered in blue light and felt puzzled. ‘What’s that?’

Before the young man could understand what was happening, he heard a crackling sound and felt the weight in his hands becoming lighter. Jiang Liushi had actually broken the katana in half!

“What’s Long Teng? You mentioned it earlier, so what is it?” asked Jiang Liushi and Ran Xiyu interpreted.

However, how could the young man possibly listen to them? He was staring at the katana’s handle with bloodshot eyes.

“My katana!”

Samurai swords were of great significance to any Japanese warrior. It was simply their second life. In ancient times, many Japanese warriors had to put their lives on the line to craft a katana, using it until the end of their lives. As a result, when the katana was broken, the young man felt like a sinner and ashamed.

Before the young man could snap out of his daze, Jiang Liushi’s punch landed on his chest and sent him flying like a ragbag, crashing heavily against a wall. At the same time, Jing Liushi threw the half-broken katana lightning fast at the young man, penetrating both of his thighs and a certain something in between…

“Ah-!” The young man screamed in pain. He convulsed on the ground like a fish out of the water while blood was oozing out of his thighs and his cut penis. It was a tragic irony – his treasured weapon had actually maimed his prized penis.

“Boss! Boss! How are you?” The young man’s subordinates asked nervously. Everything happened too fast.

Jiang Liushi was not only physically strong, but he also possessed such a frightening speed that none of them could react in time. When the subordinates saw their wounded boss, they didn’t know what to do next. They didn’t dare to act boldly as Jiang Liushi was too close to their boss, and once they tried to approach, they would undoubtedly suffer greatly like their boss.

Jiang Liushi looked at his hand and shook his fist. Since the beginning of doomsday, Jiang Liushi had experienced a lot of small or big battles, but he had relied on winning those battles on his sharpshooting skills or his car. He rarely fought in close-combat-quarters.

Although Jiang Liushi’s shooting skills were unparalleled, guns were useless in certain situations. It was Jiang Liushi’s first time fighting directly after experiencing evolution. He was very pleased with his performance and the unlimited strength coursing through his body.

“It is because of your kind sister that I didn’t kill you. But that doesn’t mean I’ll let you pester me for the sake of your sister. I just did what you wanted to do to me, so I think it’s fair. I just saved a lot of girls from a devil like you, don’t you think?” said Jiang Liushi.

Then, Jiang Liushi looked at Xia Mei. She had left a good impression to him as only a few people would put their lives on the line to help others in this treacherous world. Her character was praiseworthy, but she was indeed too naïve.

Seeing that Jiang Liushi had injured her brother, Xia Mei was stunned. Although she no longer considered him as a brother in her heart, they still shared the same mother and father. As the saying goes, “Blood is thicker than water.”

“I’m sorry, Xia Mei,” said Jiang Zhuying in a low voice. She finally realized that her impulse had led her to do something foolish.

Xia Mei shook her head, “No… Although I’m sad, he deserves it. This kind of punishment can bring hope to the girls that he harmed in the past…”

Jiang Liushi didn’t make things difficult for the young man’s subordinates, and he let them treat his wounds. Then, one of them lifted the young man and ran away in a hurry. Jiang Liushi let them go because of Xia Mei.

“Sorry,” said Jiang Liushi.

“No… I am sorry. If not for the outbreak, my brother should be rotting in prison, unable to harm anyone. However, the world is currently as if someone has opened the Pandora’s Box. Sir, you just helped close it a little. Even if you didn’t do so, someone else would sooner or later,” said Xia Mei gently. Her tone was quite calm, which left Jiang Liushi a little surprised.

“Xia Mei, did you know about the so-called Long Teng?” asked Jiang Liushi. Ran Xiyu was still interpreting for him.

Xia Men nodded and answered, “It is an organization, whose members are all Japanese-Chinese. Of course, Chinese visitors and students, who had come for vacation, business, studying and so on, and were stranded here because of the outbreak, have also joined.”

It was a fact that Chinese people could be found in many Asian countries. After all, China had a large population, and they liked going out and traveling. They especially liked Japan as their destination because of its environment and beautiful sceneries. Chinese people could be seen everywhere, so it was if the Chinese tourists had never left China. It was also reasonable for these Chinese people who were in different countries to gather together and make a living together.

In comparison, it was rare for the Japanese to visit other places in the world.

“So, did they have a conflict with you?” asked Jiang Liushi.

Xia Mei answered, “Originally, we were coexisting peacefully, but due to the shortage of resources conflicts broke out. Then, everyone started fighting against each other for mutant nuclei and meat. Later, the Sword Club was established, and the damnable organization changed everything. They used all crooked means to gather and sell intel and accumulate wealth, so the Sword Club grew in size quickly. Their methods may be cruel, but they have gathered a lot of supporters in this era of life without hope…”

“Long Teng had a few people that were not the Sword Club’s opponents, so they were slowly banished. They’ve fled to a remote area. If people like my brother meet them, they will kill them on the spot,” explained Xia Mei.

“I see.” Jiang Liushi nodded.

After doomsday, social relations were full of fraud, suspicion, blood, and murder. In this case, even friends and teammates may backstab each other, let alone strangers. As a result, it was impossible for people of different race to coexist peacefully with the locals. Under the expulsion of survival and interests, a war was inevitable.

“You said that Long Teng’s people have fled to a remote area. Are they leading miserable lives?”

“Possibly, they fled to Tyumen-Do.” Xia Mei sighed. She was a kindhearted girl, so no matter who was suffering, she would be heartbroken. “No supermarkets are there, only a few convenient stores. They can only rely on hunting mutant beasts or planting by themselves to get food….”

Jiang Liushi nodded. Of course, he knew that hunting in the jungle was quite dangerous as numerous matter mutant beasts were gathered in the jungle. As for what to plant, there was nothing. Originally, just a few modern people knew how to grow plants, not to mention in the places without supermarkets, even seeds and fertilizers were difficult to collect. The seeds used before doomsday were all bought from the seed breeding station with high yield, strong disease resistance, and many other advantages. But for those randomly found seeds, the output would be pitiful.

“The people living in a foreign land have it really hard.” Jiang Liushi sighed. Among all the foreigners in Japan, the Chinese people were the most. In fact, even before doomsday, it was still very hard for the Chinese to live in Japan. For various reasons, it was much harder for them to find a job than others, let alone now.

‘If there is a chance, maybe we should take care of them,’ said Jiang Liushi to himself. Then, he asked Xia Mei, “You just said that the Sword Club also gathers intel?”

“Yes.” Xia Mei nodded. “They have gathered a lot of intel and sell to other teams. They’ve profited a lot from this.”

“Well… this ability to gather intel is rare.” Jiang Liushi said. After all, it was extremely difficult to gather intel in this dangerous world. Jiang Liushi guessed that they had some special abilities.

‘Is it possible they have intel related to Genesis?’ thought Jiang Liushi. Initially, he didn’t hold any hope. But in order to reach Tokyo, they would pass through the center of the city, where the sword Club was located.

“Let’s go!” said Jiang Liushi.

Jiang Zhuying looked at Xia Mei and said, “Sister Xia Mei, if you want to come with us, I can teach you a lot of fighting skills. If you come under my tutelage, you will improve a lot…” Jiang Zhuying was very fond of the kindhearted girl, so she sincerely wanted Xia Mei to follow them.

“I…” Xia Mei was stunned as she had not really thought about following the Shi Ying Squad. But when Jiang Zhuying suddenly invited her, she felt conflicted. To be frank, she’d like to follow Jiang Zhuying and learn from her.

However, in any case, her brother was seriously injured. Although her brother was cruel, he was her still brother, and she was concerned about him. Xia Mei didn’t know about her brother’s condition, so she wanted to stay and check on him. She believed that if her brother learned she joined Shi Ying Squad, he would go mad. Therefore, Xia Mei looked reluctantly at Jiang Zhuying and shook her head and said, “Sister Misaka, thank you, but I can’t go with you…”

Fate was hard to tell, and if not because of her brother, she really wanted to follow Jiang Zhuying.

“Okay. Please, wait for me!” Jiang Zhuying understood how Xia Mei felt. Then, she walked into the bus, entered her bedroom and took out something wrapped in bubble paper. After that, she went out and handed it to Xia Mei.

Xia Mei looked down and took the bubble paper apart. It turned out to be a very cute and very delicate anime doll. “What a lovely Pikachu!” Xia Mei shouted in surprise. “You’re giving it to me?”

“Hey…” Jiang Zhuying’s face became red immediately. She wondered why Xia Mei opened it directly. Then, she looked back and noticed her brother staring at the Pikachu doll like he had discovered a new continent.

Jiang Liushi touched his chin and said, “I’ve once said that Pikachu is the appropriate nickname for Zhuying. This Misaka Mikoto, or Railgun, doesn’t suit her at all. If you hadn’t taken out, I would have lost the chance to see our cute Pikachu blush.”

“No!” Jiang Zhuying stared at her brother and said, “I don’t have anything else to give because anime merchandise was too expensive for me. But since we’re in Japan, I’ll sweep anything anime-related with every chance I get!” Jiang Zhuying’s eyes were sparkling. She was really looking forward to that.

Before Jiang Zhuying bid farewell to Xia Mei, she also gifted her a pistol and bullets to protect herself.

Then, Ying launched the tour bus and headed straight to the most prosperous central area of Waka County, following the route Xia Mei had shown them.

Originally, that area was also a bustling city with a population of about several million. There were various popular duty-free shops and every year, tourists from all over the world would come to visit that place. Now, the city had lost its glory, and those bags and skin-care products sought after by many women had been covered with a thick layer of dust as no one cared about them.

When Ying drove the tour bus into this block, Jiang Liushi clearly felt that the streets here were much wider while the road was clear from abandoned vehicles.
