Yet he pretended to know nothing and immediately reported the incident to Walmart's senior management.

Soon, the news spread throughout the high ranks of Walmart in South China.

A host of executives, shocked, rushed to the scene and reported the matter to the police.

Tom Watson, the manager of the South China warehouse, turned paler than snow upon seeing the empty warehouse.

"Oh my God! How am I going to explain this to headquarters?"

In fact, Walmart's headquarters in the US had already ordered that all goods be shipped back to the country as soon as possible.

It was said to be a directive from the higher-ups in the US, and their ships were about to arrive at Tianhai Port.

Now, everything was ruined!

Meanwhile, Zhang Yi wasn't worried about being exposed.

After all, the disappearance of tens of billions worth of goods from a warehouse in just two hours was too inconceivable.

Even if the police investigated with all their might, they wouldn't find anything in a short time.

Moreover, Walmart is a foreign enterprise, not a state-owned one, so the intensity of the investigation need not be mentioned.

Still, he acted nervous and scared, cooperating with the police investigation.

After a night of interrogation, Zhang Yi was released.

The police were also very skeptical about the incident.

They had checked the surveillance footage inside and outside the warehouse.

Although the internal footage had been turned off, it was impossible to steal millions of cubic meters of goods without leaving any trace.

However, surveillance from around the warehouse showed no signs of any vehicles passing by.

In other words, the tens of billions worth of goods either vanished into thin air or... it was an inside job by Walmart itself.

Logically, the latter seemed more plausible.

Unless a supernatural event occurred, there was no way to explain how millions of cubic meters of goods disappeared in just two hours.

As for ordinary employees like Zhang Yi, they also aroused some suspicion.

But the inexplicable disappearance of the goods was the main issue, not the internal staff.

Since Walmart is a foreign company with no ties to Chinese officialdom,

The case was too big, and the police's actions were naturally not swift.

They even played a game of passing the buck, fearing international repercussions.

To clarify this matter, not to mention three days, three months might not be enough!

Zhang Yi was ordered not to leave Tianhai City for the time being and had to be available for investigation by the police and Walmart at any time.

Zhang Yi cooperated fully and was then let go.

After returning home, Zhang Yi glanced outside through the blinds of the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Today was December 10th, with only two days left until the Ice Age.

In the coming time, he just needed to stay at home, not going anywhere, and he could lie back and enjoy his life.

Thinking of the tens of billions worth of goods in his alternate space, covering almost everything needed for life, Zhang Yi felt very secure.

He went back to his bedroom and lay down, feeling tired after a night of busyness and cooperating with the interrogation.

...

Zhang Yi slept until evening, turned on the TV, and saw that the news was reporting the theft at Walmart's South China warehouse.

Due to the massive loss of goods and the bizarre nature of the theft, major news stations across the country were scrambling to report it.

"Such a huge warehouse, emptied in just a few hours, must be an inside job!"

"It must have been done by someone inside, possibly by Walmart's own executives, to claim insurance."

"That's millions of cubic meters of goods, even with big trucks, it couldn't be moved in one night."

Zhang Yi smiled faintly; no one would know the answer to this before the end of the world.

For the next two days, Zhang Yi stayed at home, going nowhere.

He knew that the world didn't have much time left.

For safety, he wouldn't leave his room rashly.

During this time, the police and Walmart's investigators called him in again for questioning.

Although they suspected something was off about Zhang Yi's behavior that night,

With little time for investigation and no solid evidence, they couldn't just arrest him.

Meanwhile, some acquaintances messaged him, trying to get the inside scoop, but Zhang Yi brushed them off.

Finally, December 12th arrived.

Gamma radiation passed by Earth at two in the morning, lasting only a moment, but its impact on the planet was devastating.

Hours before, Zhang Yi had sealed his room completely and started a fire in the fireplace.

Soon, as energy sources ran out, things like air conditioning and heating would fail.

All heating would have to be done by primitive means.

At two o'clock, he sat on the sofa in front of the large window, holding a beer, staring intently outside.

Suddenly, a white light appeared at the edge of the sky, brightening the night as if it were dusk, but this light lasted only two seconds before fading.

Most people were asleep at this time and didn't notice the change.

But Zhang Yi, who knew what this meant, felt a chill down his spine.

He gulped down the beer, the crisp Budweiser bringing him a moment of calm.

He threw a few more logs into the fireplace, thinking to himself.

He turned on the TV, watching the programs while waiting for the world to change.

In just a few minutes, dense snowflakes began to fall from the sky.

At first, the snowflakes were only the size of fingernails, but in less than two minutes, they turned into heavy snow!

The wind howled outside the window, and the snow seemed to become terrifying in an instant!

A sudden blizzard covered the entire city!

This was the power of nature; when it changes, it doesn't notify you.

Zhang Yi's heart began to tense.

Although his safe house was perfectly constructed, having experienced one Ice Age, he couldn't help but worry.

He wondered if the safe house, costing up to 8 million, could withstand the upcoming severe drop in temperature.

But as the flames in the fireplace roared, the room's temperature became incredibly warm, even hot.

Zhang Yi glanced at the indoor temperature, which had reached 32.6°C.

Looking outside, the snow had already submerged the entire city.

Zhang Yi felt much more at ease.

He reduced the charcoal a bit; after all, too high a temperature indoors was uncomfortable.

Zhang Yi didn't rush to sleep; he wanted to continue observing the changes.

As for rest, there would be plenty of time later, since he didn't have to go to work.

In less than half an hour, the balcony was already covered in a thick layer of snow.

Zhang Yi checked the news on his phone and found that the sudden drop in temperature was all over the internet.

The internet was full of complaints, with netizens grumbling that winter had come too early and they hadn't had time to prepare winter clothes.

"This damn weather, it's already below minus ten degrees!"

"Tomorrow the roads will probably be frozen over, how are we supposed to go to work?"

Some people were happy, though.

"Such heavy snow, we might not have to go to work tomorrow, haha!"

Especially friends from the south were excited, posting selfies with the heavy snow.

They said they had never seen such big snow in the south.

Zhang Yi shook his head; this was just the beginning.

The heavy snow would continue for at least three months, and temperatures would drop even lower.

By then, they wouldn't be in the mood to enjoy the snow anymore.
