18 Floors Above the Apocalypse

Chapter 105

When the time was about right, Stella, carrying frozen fish slices, took Cooper to gather for a meal at 1803.

The dog's appetite had grown considerably, and anyone unaware of the situation might think he was a starving stray. He even insisted on using Stella's washbowl as his dinner dish. Everyone on the 18th-floor knew that he was a voracious eater. Extra portions were prepared whenever meals were cooked.

The stew had to be spicy to satisfy everyone's palate. However, to cater to Rosie and Cooper, a special non-spicy soup was prepared.

Fish was served last to avoid any off-putting smell.

Cody uncorked a bottle of whiskey, and to prevent freezing, had it warmed in hot water for quite a while. "Here's to the defeat of all villains, and to us having meat and liquor every day." Stella chuckled, "To outsiders, we on the 18th floor are the villains."

"Alright, let's say, to the defeat of all villains, excluding us on the 18th floor."

Everyone raised their glasses and drank. The whiskey was smooth and flavorfu, truly a good drink. It was spicy on the tongue, but once it hit the stomach, it was warm and comforting. Lukas felt extremely addicted just by smelling the stew aroma, but he had some concerns. "The smell is so strong. Won't it get out?"

Angela brashly retorted, "So what if it does? Who has the guts to take on the 18th floor?"

Stella agreed, "We are infamous now. If we don't even dare to eat meat, we are not living up to our reputation."

Rosie chimed in, "I want to eat meat. I want to eat meat every day."

"Right, from today onwards, the 18th floor fears nothing. We will eat meat and drink liquor every day."

They chatted as they ate, Stella even brought out her tablet for some entertainment. The electricity was generated by her exercise bike, so now it was accounted for.

Cody, while enjoying his meat, sighed, "It's a shame we don't have any vegetables. I miss Stella's hydroponic greens and sprouts."

When he said this, Stella instinctively glanced at Jasper. That guy knew that her rooftop garden had plenty of greens.

Jasper remained expressionless, "This meal is great. Many would kill for it."
