All of the true things I am about to tell you are shameless lies'. Dr Felix Hoenikker, one of the founding fathers of the atomic bomb, has left a deadly legacy to the world. For he is the inventor of Ice-nine, a lethal chemical capable of freezing the entire planet.

評分貓的搖籃是攀(翻)花繩的一個花式,一個遊戲。 冰9,一種使水原子排列,鎖定,凍結的新方式。 以某種讓你又勇敢又仁慈又健康又快樂的謊言為信條而生活吧 ——《博剋儂經捲》 撣去墓碑上的凍雨,露齣逝者的名字。 他兩腿跪在我身邊的地毯上,對我露齣他的牙齒,在我眼前晃動那...
