Chapter 21 Government Rescue Three days later, the authorities finally issued the first rescue notice after the rainstorm, with military personnel driving search and rescue boats to various places in the city and broadcasting. "All residents, please note that the government will distribute relief supplies at the community emergency rescue center at 8 a.m. tomorrow. Everyone will receive the corresponding supplies with their ID card, and no one else will be allowed to collect on their behalf." The rescue notification loudspeaker sounded three times in the community, and everyone was shocked and felt that they saw hope. With the help of the country, everything seems not so terrible anymore. Only those who knew the inside story did not feel any emotional ups and downs. The floods caused by the rainstorm were a national disaster, and it was also necessary to rescue the supplies stored in granaries across the country. The number of rescue personnel that the country could send was very limited. Moreover, it is not certain how long the distribution of relief supplies can continue. Shuxin remembers that in the book, the country has only distributed relief supplies three times. With their reminder this time, I don't know how long the distribution of relief supplies can continue. There is no point thinking about these things too much, so Shuxin threw away the messy thoughts in her mind and turned her attention back to today's training content. That day, Yan Mo and his team came back from gathering information outside and conducted a comprehensive analysis of the current situation. They adjusted the training plans of Shu Xin and Bu Xiangwen. The progress was much faster than before, and the intensity was gradually increasing. While having dinner, a few people discussed about collecting relief supplies tomorrow and decided that all four of them would go. The next morning, the four of them had breakfast, wrapped themselves up tightly and went out. After such a long period of heavy rain, the weather in July no longer feels like summer at all. The air is full of water molecules and there is a damp smell everywhere, making people feel very uncomfortable. I usually turn on the dehumidifier at home, so I don't feel anything. But as soon as I go out, I feel a cold and damp air constantly drilling into the bones. Even wearing long pants and long sleeves can't resist it, and I can't help but shiver. Yan Mo had been paying attention to Shu Xin's condition, and the moment he noticed Shu Xin's body shaking, he hugged her in his arms. "I told you to wear more clothes just now, but you didn't listen. Now you know you're cold." Although he scolded her, he hugged her even tighter and used his body to block most of the cold wind for Shuxin. Shu Xin has become accustomed to her boyfriend nagging like an old father. She follows Yan Mo's actions and hides in his arms, whining and acting coquettishly with him. Yan Mo sighed helplessly and could only resign himself to holding the person tightly, not letting go until they reached their destination. The community's emergency rescue point was built on relatively high ground. The water had not yet come up, so people could stand. A large open space outside was already crowded with people, all stretching their heads to look toward the material distribution point ahead, wanting to see what would be distributed. To prevent the public from causing trouble, a small team of soldiers with guns were stationed at each material distribution point. Once a troublemaker was found, he or she would be directly blacklisted and refused to receive supplies. If anyone dared to rob, the soldiers standing nearby would not just sit there and wait for the opportunity. The order they received was that if anyone dared to loot supplies, they would be shot on the spot without any mercy. Shu Xin and the others lined up at the end of the team in an orderly manner. Mu Qimai and Yan Mo stood in the front and back respectively, leaving Shu Xin and Bu Xiangwen in the middle. This way, if there was any emergency, the safety of both of them could be guaranteed.
Chapter 22 The process of queuing to eat the heroine's melon is long. Shu Xin observes the people around her aimlessly. The expressions on everyone's faces become relaxed, sweeping away the tension and frustration of the past few days. The government's rescue operation greatly calmed their panic and allowed them to calm down. I believe that no matter how bad the situation is, the country will not ignore them. In order to stabilize the public's emotions, the authorities are now distributing relief supplies, but the national reserve of supplies is limited, and the reserve of supplies in various localities is also limited. The disaster-stricken area is not just one province or city, but the entire country. The disaster will not end in the short term, but will be a protracted war from now on, with no known end date. Due to the weather this year, not much grain survived and all that was available was reserve grain. When the people above truly believe what Yan Mo said, they will definitely immediately recover all the resources. At that time, whether the relief supplies will be distributed for free or whether they will be distributed again remains to be discussed. Once the official distribution of relief supplies stops, people will find that the terrible natural disaster has not passed, the backlash will be uncontrollable and the entire social order will collapse in an instant. The familiar name immediately brought Shu Xin back to her senses. She turned around and looked at the place where the voice came from. She saw a man and a woman standing opposite to a woman dressed in a neutral style. "Ye Yu'an?! Is it really you?! How did you end up in this neighborhood?!" Wang Yayun's surprised and slightly sharp voice attracted the attention of the people around them. The innate desire to watch the fun was aroused in the Chinese people, and their eyes quietly moved in their direction, intending to see what kind of melons there were. Du Hanxu, who was standing next to Wang Yayun, also did not look very happy, and he looked at Ye Yu'an with hatred in his eyes. Ever since the last time Ye Yu'an exposed the fact that he had done his homework for him in public because of schoolwork, he lost face in the academy and his good reputation that he had accumulated was completely destroyed. Originally, he was certain to be awarded the title of the school's three best students this semester, but after Ye Yu'an made such a fuss, he was directly crossed out from the list of candidates and replaced by another person. That person usually didn't get along with him, and this time he took the opportunity to mock him harshly. He put all the blame on Ye Yu'an. If Ye Yu'an hadn't suddenly gone crazy and told others about completing his homework for him, none of these things would have happened, and he would still be the excellent student in everyone's eyes. Wang Yayun was also full of resentment towards Ye Yu'an in her heart. She didn't know how Ye Yu'an knew that she and Hanxu's brother were together. It was obvious that the two of them had done some inappropriate things in front of her, but she didn't notice anything unusual. She would naively think that Du Hanxu took extra care of her because they had a good relationship, and that loving her was due to his love for her. Who knew that Ye Yu'an suddenly came to her senses and knew that the two of them had been together for a long time. This was nothing in itself, as she had broken up with Brother Hanxu, and this was a good thing for her. A boy like Du Hanxu, who comes from a wealthy family, is good at studying and looks good, is a popular figure in school. Many girls would envy her for being his girlfriend. But now, when she is still feeling complacent about becoming Du Hanxu's public girlfriend, the bitch Ye Yu'an has ruined Hanxu's brother's reputation. But it doesn't matter. As long as she stays with Brother Hanxu at this time, she believes that Brother Hanxu will believe that she really likes him, will be moved by her, and will prepare for her to marry into their family in the future. "Why can't I appear in this community? What's the matter? Is this community yours?" Ye Yu'an didn't expect it to be so unlucky. She cut her long straight black hair into short hair that reached her ears, and wore men's clothes when going out, covering herself tightly with a hat and a mask. She was still recognized by Wang Yayun. She was so unlucky. No wonder her right eyelid kept twitching before she went out. "Ye Yu'an, you actually have the nerve to show up in front of me?! You're so brave!!" The other people standing in line nearby could feel how angry Du Hanxu was when he said this, and they became more interested in watching the show. "That's right, Ye Yu'an, you did such an excessive thing to brother Hanxu, and you still dare to show up?!" "I should be the one saying these words. I'm not the one who got together with my best friend's boyfriend behind her back, and I'm not the one who handed in something written by someone else. You are the ones who are morally corrupt and have poor personal ethics, right? How dare you stand in front of me and accuse me with such confidence?" " Oh~ I understand. After all, you've done so many shameless things that you've developed a thick skin. You're used to blaming others for all the mistakes and passing the buck." Ye Yu'an's tone was cold and his eyes were emotionless, but it made people feel extremely ironic. The people around who were secretly paying attention to this had their ears perked up for a long time. After hearing that it was a drama about a bestie and her boyfriend getting together, the gossipy gleam in their eyes suddenly lit up. Although this kind of plot is old-fashioned, it is exciting, especially when you can see the live version of the grudges and entanglements. The long wait in line is nothing. The contemptuous looks from the crowd, either overtly or covertly, were like two slaps in the face of Du Hanxu and Wang Yayun, making them feel extremely embarrassed. But he had to receive the relief supplies, so he could only put on his mask dejectedly and go back to the crowd to line up. His resentment towards Ye Yu'an deepened. They had just moved here and had not yet purchased many things. Before the official heavy rain notice asked them to stock up on supplies, they went to the supermarket but were dissatisfied with the crowds and returned home without buying much. They had never imagined that the heavy rain would last so long. Neither Du Hanxu nor Wang Yayun knew how to cook, and all they bought were instant foods and snacks. They were able to hold out until now thanks to someone from Du Hanxu's family who sent some things over in the first two days after the heavy rain. The food at home is almost gone, and Du Hanxu's family is unable to send anyone to deliver things. Otherwise, they would not have the audacity to come and claim these relief supplies that they usually don't even care about. Shu Xin stood not far away, also acting as a badger in the melon field, and ate the melon carefully. I finally met Ye Yu'an, the heroine in the original book who was reborn and was decisive in killing. Her name and face matched, but the book said that the heroine's residence after her rebirth was in another community, but now it turned out that she lived in the same community as mine. Tsk, they live in the same residential complex as the heroine. I hope the building where the heroine lives is far away from them, otherwise there may be endless troubles in the future. These troubles are what the heroine must experience, but they, the little cannon fodder, don't have to go through.
Chapter 23: Yan Mo stood behind Shu Xin, and following Shu Xin's gaze, he saw Ye Yu'an in the distance. He did not miss the murderous intent that flashed in her eyes when the two people who were arguing with her turned around. That trace of murderous intent disappeared very quickly, so quickly that it was difficult to capture. Ordinary people would definitely think it was an illusion and that they had seen it wrong. However, Yan Mo was certain that that trace of murderous intent was real. Ye Yu'an is definitely not simple. The emotions in her eyes and the temperament she displays are too inconsistent with her age. Even from such a distance, he can feel the hostility in Ye Yu'an. Even though she may have been deliberately controlling it, it would still be inadvertently leaked out in her gestures. There is such a dangerous existence in the community. It seems that we can never let our guard down. People didn't take this little episode seriously, and soon all their attention was drawn to the relief supplies distributed by the government. The time for distributing supplies was very punctual. At eight o'clock, the first person in line got the supply package, which was packed in a large black plastic bag, and you couldn't see what was inside. The person who took the supply bag opened it and took a look. Inside were ten packages of instant noodles, ten kilograms of potatoes, ten kilograms of cabbage, ten kilograms of rice, two handfuls of noodles, a piece of meat weighing more than one kilogram, and ten candles. It can be said that there were a lot of things and the variety was quite rich. There are so many things that it is more than enough for one person to eat for seven days, and there will even be quite a bit left over. Yet some people are unsatisfied and greedily want more, muttering about how stingy the country is. Supplies are distributed once every seven days, and there is a big question mark as to whether such things can be distributed next time. The free supplies will only become less and less, and worse and worse. When we really run out of ammunition and food, we will have no time to complain about the bad things. We will just be thankful to have something edible. There were soldiers standing around with guns to maintain order, and no one dared to make trouble. The entire distribution of supplies went extremely smoothly. Shu Xin and his team were located relatively close to the front, and they successfully received the supplies in less than half an hour. Without delaying outside, they picked up their things and quickly returned home. On the way back and forth, even though they were wearing raincoats, they were soaked through by the rain, and there was not a dry spot on their bodies. In order to avoid catching a cold, the four of them quickly went into the house, took a hot shower, changed their clothes, and half-lay out comfortably on the sofa in the living room. Going out felt more tiring than training at home. When you go out, your mind is tired, and when you stay home, your body is tired. At noon, Shuxin wanted to eat the iron pot stew stored in the space. She secretly asked Yan Mo, and after getting his consent, Shuxin smuggled the things out of the space, and then asked Yan Mo to take the things out, which became reasonable. Living together day and night, the matter of the space cannot be kept secret for long, and there is no need to hide it. Yan Mo and Shu Xin discussed it and decided to tell Bu Xiangwen and Mu Qimai about the existence of the space. Both of them are people they can absolutely trust and will not betray. However, after the zombie outbreak, people's superpowers were stimulated in various ways. They were afraid that someone would be able to read other people's memories. Yan Mo decided to replace the owner of the space with himself when he talked to them, so as to ensure Shuxin's safety as much as possible. Shu Xin knew that Yan Mo would be able to activate his psychic abilities in the future, and she fully agreed with his proposal. Being able to spy on and read other people's memories is, to put it bluntly, a branch of psychic abilities. As long as the other party's mental power is higher than his, he has no way to deal with it. Yan Mo is a high-level psychic in the book. At least in the parts she saw, no one's mental power level could exceed Yan Mo. Reading Yan Mo's memory was a complete pipe dream. Bu Xiangwen and Mu Qimai were told that even if someone read their memories and knew about the space, they would only know that the owner of the space was Yan Mo, and Yan Mo's fighting ability was not something that could be defeated by just anyone. As for why Shu Xin is not worried about her own memory being read, it is because the jade pendant space itself, in order to protect itself and prevent outsiders from snooping, will automatically block the memory of Shu Xin's specific information about the space, making it impossible for people to know. With Yan Mo's protection, plus this perfect guarantee that is like a safety net, Shu Xin is not afraid of her space being discovered. As long as she doesn't commit suicide on her own initiative and expose the difference in her space, there will be no problem for her to live safely. When everyone starts to activate their superpowers, Shu Xin can completely pretend that she has activated her space power, and then she won't arouse other people's suspicion when taking things out. After all, people with space abilities are rare, but they are not non-existent. So a few days ago, Yan Mo, Bu Xiangwen and Mu Qimai vaguely told each other that they had a space. After Yan Mo confessed about the end of the world, the two people's ability to accept it has obviously become better. They were not at all as surprised as they were the first time, and even seemed to accept it very well. It seemed as if if Yan Mo had told them that the earth would explode tomorrow, they would not have reacted too much. Shuxin has completely let go of herself these past few days, and has been eating the delicacies she had stored in the space almost every meal. In addition to satisfying her appetite, it has also saved her the trouble of cooking. It will be much more convenient to take out delicious food in the future. It is a win-win situation, and Shuxin is extremely satisfied.
Chapter 24 Water Outage Shuxin got up early in the morning according to the training plan and walked into the bathroom in a daze. She turned on the faucet skillfully, but no water flowed to her hands for a long time. Before I could fully realize the situation, my mind was not fully clear: the water supply had been cut off! Water is essential for human survival. A person can only survive for 2 to 7 days without drinking water, which may vary depending on individual constitution and environment. Compared with power outages, water outages have a greater impact on people. There is no doubt that water is very important to humans. Shuxin had known about the water outage for a long time, and it was also expected. Although with the development of science and technology, all urban infrastructure has been rebuilt in the past decade to prevent emergencies caused by various natural disasters, facing the floods caused by heavy rains for such a long time, coupled with power outages, and as all the power reserves of machinery and equipment have been exhausted, the lack of water supply is not something that is difficult to predict. Anyone with a little common sense should be able to think of it. There were plenty of fresh water resources stored in the space, enough for the four of them to use, so apart from feeling a little sad at first when she knew about the water outage, it didn't cause Shuxin much trouble. Shuxin quickly washed her face, tied her hair up, changed into sportswear suitable for training, and went downstairs to meet up with others. "When did the water supply go out?" "Early yesterday morning." Yan Mo helped Shu Xin pull out a chair and placed the prepared breakfast in front of her. "Have you washed up this morning?" Shu Xin was already used to her boyfriend's care, and she took the breakfast handed to her by Yan Mo very smoothly. "Of course I washed it. I used the water from the water tank outside. You forgot that a water tank was installed on the roof when the building was renovated." "Hehehe, your mind is not clear since you woke up so early in the morning." "We live on the top floor of the community. There are many residents downstairs. When we flush the toilet, people downstairs can hear it. We will need to use cat litter to solve personal problems in the future. Everyone should take some time to adapt to it today." Shu Xin admired Yan Mo very much for being able to say these words without changing his expression or heartbeat. If it were her, she wouldn't know how to start. I looked at the expressions of the other two people again, and there was nothing unusual. Why did I feel like I was the only one feeling embarrassed? no! She absolutely could not show any strange expression, otherwise it would seem that she was very ignorant. She tried hard to maintain her expression, completely unaware that Yan Mo had seen all the changing expressions on her face. A smile flashed across Yan Mo's eyes. His girlfriend was sometimes really too silly to be cute. What Shu Xin didn't know was that Bu Xiangwen and Mu Qimai were just used to hearing everything without showing any emotion. When they were really asked to do the actual operation, the expressions of the two of them when they came out of the bathroom were quite indescribable. Shu Xin couldn't help laughing at them for a long time. The two of them were quite embarrassed and a little ashamed. For the past twenty years, their identities made it so that they would never encounter such embarrassing things. It was contrary to the good education they had received. Even Yan Mo himself was very uncomfortable with it. No matter how hard he was trained as a child, he had never had to deal with his own excrement. He really couldn't bring himself to do it. It will take some time for everyone to adapt before they can fully accept this approach.
Chapter 25: Those who can afford to live in high-end residential areas are not too bad in status and quality. The circle of the middle and upper classes in City A is so small that you will see them every day. There will be opportunities for cooperation in the future. During the period when the water supply was just cut off, everyone was still concerned about their own face and maintaining their own image. I don't know if there was any behavior behind the scenes, but at least everyone behaved well on the surface and no one threw objects from high places in public. With the cheating artifact called space, Shuxin and the others don't have this worry at all. If they throw it into the second layer of space, it will be automatically degraded by space. The rainstorm lasted longer and longer, the water level in the community gradually rose, and more and more people's homes were flooded. Some people moved from their homes to the corridors of higher floors to live temporarily, and some people moved into other people's homes with the promise of money or benefits or threats. Those who dare to let others live in their homes at this time, whether because they are too greedy, not very smart, or timid by nature, will not have a good ending in the end. The heavy rain has been going on for a month and there is no sign of stopping. When the whole country and even the whole world are suffering from the disaster, if you still dare to let other unfamiliar people into your home, it is no different from inviting a wolf into the house. It is difficult for these types of people to live long under the cruel rules of survival in the apocalypse. The most recent relief supplies distributed by the government are vastly different from the first, and it is clearly required that the next supply of supplies must be exchanged for an equivalent amount of cash or gold. Ever since the news came out that some people's supplies were robbed on the way home, everyone's first reaction after receiving the supplies is to hold them tightly in their arms, carefully and vigilantly observe the surroundings, and rush home quickly, for fear that they will be the next unlucky person. Shu Xin and his friends did not go to collect supplies the next few times. On the one hand, it was inconvenient to go out in the heavy rain as they were exposed to the rain and wind. However, they were not short of supplies, so there was no need for them to suffer this. On the other hand, they already have a pretty good understanding of the situation outside, and there is no point in going out. Instead of going out to collect supplies, they might as well train for two or three more hours at home. Another half month passed, the official distribution of supplies stopped, social order fell into complete chaos, and the community began to become uneasy. During this period, four or five groups of people came and knocked on the door at the entrance of the 24th floor. The attitude of the people who came changed from friendly words at the beginning to intimidation and inducement, and finally to outright coercion. There is only one goal, which is to live in the 24th and 25th floors and steal their stored supplies. The water has already flooded to the middle of the ninth floor. At the current rate, it will soon flood to higher places. Zai Xinyuan and his group who live on the sixteenth floor clearly feel the threat. The sixteenth floor is no longer a 100% safe place. They want to move to higher floors and have set their sights on the twenty-fourth and twenty-fifth floors. They observed that the people on the 24th and 25th floors had only gone down once to collect relief supplies. They had not been out for such a long time, so they must have a lot of supplies stored at home. If they could successfully break in, they would definitely get a lot of benefits. I have also seen them using rubber boats before. The importance of rubber boats during floods is self-evident. Having a rubber boat is equivalent to having an extra means of saving lives. There were five of them, including Zai Xinyuan, who were roommates in a university dormitory. It happened to be one of their birthdays before the rainstorm, so they wanted to find a place in the dormitory to have some fun and play all night. Zai Xinyuan thought that the house here just met their requirements. It was big and no one lived there usually. Aunt Guang came to clean the place regularly, so he brought everyone in the dormitory here. All five of them are strong young men who adapt to the chaotic society much faster than other middle-aged and elderly people and have a stronger ability to accept. The 24th floor was not their first target. Their first target was a single girl who lived on the 13th floor. She was from the same dormitory as them and was not bad looking. After they said a few nice words to coax her, she obediently opened the door for them. This successful start with little effort made these young men, who were just 18 years old, excited and started to act more brazenly. The subsequent successes inflated their self-confidence and made them feel as if they had become the male protagonists in a TV series. Social chaos gave them the opportunity to rise and wait for them to dominate the world. After setting their sights on the 24th floor, they did not have any serious discussions, thinking that it would be about the same difficulty as the previous ones. They casually agreed to pry the door open early this morning, not taking going to the 24th floor seriously at all. Just after one in the morning, Zai Xinyuan and his group came up from the sixteenth floor. They secretly studied the door installed at the stairwell on the twenty-fourth floor. It was very sturdy and difficult to break open with ordinary means. When looting supplies from a previous store, I found a cutting machine and a battery, which came in handy. The noise of the cutting machine was quite loud, and Mu Qimai, who was sleeping on the sofa in the living room tonight, immediately heard the noise outside the door. He got up from the sofa quietly, turned on the surveillance camera in the stairwell, walked to the bedroom doors of Yan Mo and Bu Xiangwen, and knocked to wake them up. After the neighborhood became chaotic, Yan Mo arranged for someone to sleep on the sofa in the living room every night so that he could react quickly if there was any noise. The soundproofing of the room was so good at the time that if no one was arranged to be on duty at night, they would not even be able to hear the door being pried open. Yan Mo and Bu Xiangwen came out quickly. They confirmed the number of people coming and the weapons they had from the surveillance footage. One of them had a long knife and a gun on his waist, then opened the door and walked out. The door of the stairwell was suddenly opened. Zai Xinyuan and his gang were a little stunned. When they saw the person inside, they immediately reacted with ferocious looks on their faces. "Oh, it seems you are quite vigilant? If you'd like to be smart, open the door now to save us from wasting extra effort. Otherwise, you'll be in trouble once we get in!" Zai Xinyuan stood in front carelessly, speaking harshly and unashamedly. "Tsk——" Such stupid words were actually uttered by a man who is almost twenty years old. It seems that he has watched a lot of brainless TV dramas and has been seriously poisoned by them. Yan Mo's ridicule made Zai Xinyuan feel extremely angry, as if he was an insignificant clown, and he roared. "Since you don't know how to appreciate our courtesy, don't blame us for being rude. Hurry up and cut open this iron gate, and see what they can still be so arrogant about!" The person operating the cutting machine sped up the action, turning the horsepower to maximum, without worrying about waking up the people inside.
Chapter 26 Let them go. It was hard for Yan Mo to ignore the stupid actions of those people outside. He slightly tilted his head towards the direction of Mu Qimai. Mu Qimai has been with Yan Mo for so many years, and the two of them have long developed a tacit understanding. He reached out and pressed the button at hand, and the iron gate in front of him was immediately connected to high voltage electricity. There was even a flash of electric arc on the door at the moment the power was turned on. Ding Bo, who was operating the cutting machine, was so scared that he threw the machine to the ground and took a big step back with lingering fear. Ever since he decided to go to the 24th floor tonight, he had a strong intuition about something bad happening. His sixth sense was always very accurate. After coming up, his nerves had been tense, and any slight movement around him would make him alert. Ding Bo did not miss the slight head tilt of the man who had just led the way inside. Alarm bells rang in his heart, and he subconsciously took the cutting machine and left the door. The next second, he saw a high-voltage arc flashing on the door. After throwing away the cutting machine, he felt like he had survived a disaster. If I hadn't been alert the whole time and hadn't had time to leave, I would probably be lying in the cold ground now. Being electrocuted by high voltage electricity and passing out is a minor matter, but there is a high possibility that you may even lose your life. Having been with his roommate for such a long time, he knew very well what kind of personality his roommate had. If something really happened to him, no one would care whether he lived or died and would let him fend for himself. If he wanted to survive, the only person he could trust and rely on was himself. The high voltage on the door made the people in Zai Xinyuan's dormitory hesitate, and they were afraid to step forward. Everyone knew the danger of high voltage electricity, and no one dared to gamble with their lives. They were somewhat unwilling to be allowed to leave like this. Zai Xinyuan and his group were stuck in the stairwell, not knowing whether to charge forward or return empty-handed. Yan Mo did not give them a chance to choose. He waited for them to make way for the door, turned off the high voltage electricity, and walked out with Bu Xiangwen and Mu Qimai. With three more men in the small stairwell, it became even more cramped and crowded. Seeing Yan Mo and the others actually walked out by themselves, Zai Xinyuan grinned, "Brothers, go ahead! Show them some color!" The five of them clenched the baseball bats, iron bars and other objects in their hands, looked at each other and rushed up together. Yan Mo and the other two didn't waste any time and rushed forward without even drawing their swords. Zai Xinyuan and the other four were all knocked to the ground, rolling in a ball on the ground in grief. Zai Xinyuan and his group had never received any formal training. They were able to succeed only because of their youth, strength and courage, as well as the various concerns of others. All their moves were disorganized and a mess. At a glance, all their weaknesses and fatal points were exposed right before their noses. If Yan Mo and the others didn't fight, it would be a shame for them to try so hard and die voluntarily. He beat the man so badly that he had to lie in bed for at least half a month and was unable to move normally. He then beat Zai Xinyuan and the others severely before letting them go. The chaos had just begun. Yan Mo didn't want to kill anyone so early. He was not a murderer who killed for the sake of killing and killed anyone he saw. Once the murder begins, the survival rules of the community will be completely rewritten and can no longer be controlled. Although there is chaos now, most people are only thinking about looting supplies. No one has the idea of killing anyone. They think that as long as the rainstorm stops, social order will return to normal, so they dare not do anything too extreme. They all lived in the same building, and Yan Mo and the others had heard about what happened to Zai Xinyuan and the others. However, they were just a few young, impulsive people who had been heavily influenced by TV dramas. Apart from rushing into other people's homes to steal supplies, they had not done anything worse than beasts. When robbing supplies, some will be left for the other party, and it is not necessary to rob them all. The girl who was robbed on the thirteenth floor just took the things and left without any bad intentions. Their actions were not too extreme and did not cause much impact on them, which is why Yan Mo chose to let them go today. I hope that after being beaten up they will be more honest, and that others who are still eyeing the 24th floor will be more cautious. If they want to come and cause trouble, they should first consider their own strength and whether they have the ability to do so.
Chapter 27: Sleeping with Shuxin I have been having trouble sleeping well lately and have been suffering from insomnia. She lives alone upstairs, and she has been sleeping with the door open these past two days so that she can hear any noise downstairs in time. The fight between Yan Mo and Zai Xinyuan and others on the stairwell on the 24th floor made quite a noise, and Shu Xin was naturally woken up. Shu Xin didn't rush out to see what was going on. Since Yan Mo didn't come up to call her, there shouldn't be any big problems. I put a coat on over my pajamas and went downstairs. I sat on the sofa in the living room, watching the surveillance camera while waiting for them to come back. As soon as Yan Mo came in, he saw Shu Xin sitting upright on the sofa waiting for him. He walked up to Shu Xin and touched her face, "Why did you come down? Were you woken up?" " I couldn't sleep well." Shu Xin shook her head, put her arms around Yan Mo's strong waist, buried her face in her favorite abdominal muscles, and answered in a muffled voice. When Bu Xiangwen and Mu Qimai saw Shu Xin when they entered the room in the morning, they consciously avoided suspicion and quietly slipped back to their own bedroom to live with the young couple. These two single dogs really eat dog food all the time. They are not afraid of being hungry at all. If they don't have food, there will be dog food waiting for them. Yan Mo rubbed Shuxin's head, bent down, picked up Shuxin, walked upstairs, and gently put her on the bed. The person in his arms hugged his waist clingingly and refused to let go. "You little clingy boy, be good and let go of me first. I won't leave. I'll go wash up and come back. I'll sleep with you tonight." "Okay, you said it, you can't go against your will." When Shu Xin heard that Yan Mo wanted to sleep with her, she immediately loosened her arms around Yan Mo's waist and kept urging him to go wash up. Shu Xin didn't know what was wrong with her. She particularly wanted to stay with Yan Mo tonight. She wanted to feel Yan Mo's breath every moment, as if this was the only way to confirm something. How could Yan Mo, who cared about and understood Shu Xin, not feel that his girlfriend was in a bad mood tonight? He felt uneasy if he didn't watch her in person, so he quickly washed off the dust and blood on his body that was on him from the beating in the bathroom of Shu Xin's room. I don't know if it's because I know that Yan Mo and I are in the same room and using my bathroom, but listening to the sound of water in the bathroom, Shu Xin can't control the yellow garbage in her head. The various scenes in the erotic novels she had read before, in which the hero and the heroine had various feelings after taking a bath, kept appearing in her mind. The scariest thing was that the scenes in her mind automatically brought about herself and Yan Mo. Shuxin's face became redder and redder. She tried to get rid of the inappropriate images in her mind, but found that it seemed to be a futile effort. This feeling of shame reached its peak after seeing Yan Mo walking out of the bathroom with his bathrobe half open. Shu Xin felt that the temperature of her body was enough to make her explode on the spot. Shu Xin averted her eyes from Yan Mo's chest as if trying to cover her ears to steal a bell, and silently recited in her heart: Form is emptiness, emptiness is form, to calm her accelerated heartbeat and blood flow. But as a man who had aroused Shuxin's lust, he had no self-awareness at all. He climbed onto the bed, and the clean and refreshing scent from his fresh shower instantly filled Shuxin's nose. It smelled so good and familiar that Shuxin couldn't help but move her nose slightly and sniffed a few times. "Heh~" Shu Xin's little action did not escape Yan Mo's eyes, and he let out a pleasant chuckle. I felt comfortable sticking to Yan Mo, feeling the vibration of his chest. His voice sounded better and more charming through his chest than usual. Shuxin finally knows what it feels like to feel like her ears are pregnant!
Chapter 28 Change That night, many people noticed that Zai Xinyuan and his group were coming up to cause trouble on the 24th floor. They were gloating and secretly paying attention to the subsequent results. When they saw Zai Xinyuan and his group supporting each other and coming down the stairs in a panic, they couldn't help but feel a little afraid of the 24th floor. The dark thoughts that had just begun to emerge in my heart were strangled in the cradle, and I remained silent and didn't dare to move. With Yan Mo's example of killing the chicken to scare the monkeys, the building they lived in was at least safe on the surface. However, the building where Ye Yu'an, the heroine of the original book, lived was in chaos, and all kinds of troubles kept coming to her. The protagonist's halo will not only bring the protagonist convenience like cheating, but will also bring the protagonist troubles constantly. All those who came to cause trouble thought that she was a single girl and was easier to bully than other single men or families living together. Every one of them, everyone who came to his door was severely beaten up by Ye Yu'an. Ye Yu'an's life was frequently disturbed, and his temperament had changed after his rebirth, so the suppressed anger in his heart continued to accumulate. She didn't kill anyone for the time being because she wanted to temper her temper. She could sense the changes in her personality, which had both advantages and disadvantages in surviving in the apocalypse. During the time since his rebirth, Ye Yu'an has been alone for a long time and has more time to calm down and think. Gradually, he has figured out many things. In her previous life, she was deceived by Du Hanxu and Wang Yayun, and was finally pushed into a pile of zombies and died tragically. She was partly responsible for this result. If she wasn't so naive and so easily gave her sincerity and trust to others, she wouldn't have been fooled by their not-so-clever tactics. Seeing how close they were, she actually believed it was because of her. Living her life over again, she didn't want the hatred of her past life and all the suffering she had experienced to become the main theme of her life. Those days that were too painful to look back on were in the past. God had given her a chance to start over, and she would definitely live a different life. However, she will avenge Du Hanxu and Wang Yayun. She will never let these two people go. People always have to pay the price for their mistakes. The water gradually reached the thirteenth floor. More and more people were forced to leave their homes, rolling up their bedding and taking their little food with them, and moving to the corridors on higher floors to live. The corridors were becoming more and more crowded, and the space was so small that there were more and more conflicts between people. Large and small disputes occurred every day. Living in such an environment for a long time, people's mood has visibly deteriorated. The business elites who usually wear high-end suits and move around in various high-rise office buildings, with elegant manners and good conversation, no longer have the temperament they used to have. They look hideous and embarrassed, and they curse at every turn, which is unbearable to watch. The time Ye Yu'an had after her rebirth was only enough for her to finish decorating the interior of the house. She neglected to install an iron door on the stairs, resulting in the fact that now the only thing at the staircase leading directly to the 25th floor is the original safety door, which does not provide much defensive effect. Today, someone used the axe in the fire box to chop open the door that Ye Yu'an had locked. Ye Yu'an heard the noise of the door being chopped open outside at home. She did not go out to see what was going on. She put on the clothes that were placed next to the sofa and waited for her door to be knocked. As Ye Yu'an expected, fifteen minutes later, the person who violently opened the stairwell door knocked hard on her door. She could feel the anger of the leader just from the sound of the knocking. Ye Yu'an stood up calmly, walked to the door with the knife in his hand, and opened the door. Before everyone could react, the person standing in front of him knocking on the door flew backwards along the ground and stopped only after hitting the wall. Ye Yu'an's kick shocked everyone else in the corridor, and their eyes almost popped out of their sockets. How could a woman be so strong that she could kick a grown man away easily? It broke their perception of normal women. The person who was kicked away by Ye Yu'an was quickly helped to stand up. He was in so much pain that he could hardly control his facial expression. He grimaced, and his momentum was much weaker. He pushed away the younger brother who was supporting him and rushed forward to punch Ye Yu'an. The next second his whole body froze in place, maintaining a funny posture. The cold touch on his neck extinguished his anger and impulse, and he calmed down to the point of being unable to calm down any more.
Chapter 29 The Extreme Cold Arrives A drop of cold sweat dripped from his forehead and flowed down his neck. Fei Jun swallowed hard, his posture twisted and he dared not shake at all, fearing that if Ye Yu'an shook his hand, his life would be over. "Don't show up on the 25th floor again. If you do that again, the knife will directly cut your aorta, and blood will flow through the wound to the damaged part of your trachea. The blood or blood clots will be sucked into the trachea, causing breathing difficulties or even suffocation. You will clearly feel the process of death. If you want to experience the feeling I mentioned, just come and die." The cold blade pointed at the man's neck, and the skin was immediately cut when it touched it lightly. A thin line of blood appeared. Ye Yu'an's cold voice coupled with the tingling pain on his neck made Fei Jun unable to resist at all, nor did he dare to nod. He blinked wildly to indicate that he understood. "Get lost!" Ye Yu'an retracted the knife in his hand, watched several people fleeing the 25th floor in a panic, and turned back home. These people who lived in the same building in the community posed no threat to her, they were just annoying. The door of the stairwell on the 25th floor was damaged, so there must be someone living in the stairwell. They could forget about living in the corridor. She didn't want the door to be filled with all kinds of garbage, but it would be difficult to avoid being discovered if she went out alone again in the future. "Tsk—" The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became. The urge to kill someone came up again. Ye Yu'an simply took out the ingredients from the space and cooked to distract himself and calm himself. Time gradually came to the end of the rainstorm disaster. During these three months, the social order established over the years collapsed and became shaky. The credibility of the official government dropped to the lowest level. Amidst the chaos in other buildings in the community, only the building where Shu Xin and Ye Yu'an lived was exceptionally quiet. During these three months, under the devilish training of Yan Mo and Mu Qimai, Shu Xin and Bu Xiangwen's progress, although not rapid, is rapid. There is not a trace of excess fat on their bodies, and their appearance has not changed much, but they look more energetic. The rainstorm was visibly getting smaller, and people seemed to see hope of returning to normal. Even if Shuxin and the others didn't go downstairs, they could feel the excitement of others from the excited voices of those living in the stairwell when they occasionally opened the door. As people expected, the rainstorm finally stopped in the afternoon three days later. When the rainstorm stopped, people from different places across the country burst into cheers of joy, celebrating that the disaster was finally over and normal life was about to resume. The flood that rose to the 18th floor receded quickly, and in just half a day it had fallen below the 10th floor. People swiftly packed up their few remaining belongings, ready to move back to their homes at any time. The moment Shu Xin knew the rain had stopped, she began to take out the cold-resistant items that would be used during the upcoming extreme cold period from the space, including the stove, thickened down quilt, thickened bed sets, thickened down jackets, small suns, and hot packs. She filled a whole room with them before she stopped. After Shu Xin took out all the things, Yan Mo took Bu Xiangwen and Mu Qimai upstairs to move the things. The four of them spent the entire afternoon and one and a half nights cleaning up, and renovated all the places where they often went. The largest stove was installed in the living room to provide floor heating for the entire house. A smokeless stove with excellent heat dissipation performance was also installed in the bedroom where they slept. Four or five super thick quilts were placed on the beds, and the four-piece sets were all replaced with velvet. Three or four more quilts were placed on each bed to facilitate adding quilts when feeling cold while sleeping. There is a thick layer of carpet on the floor, and even the door handles are covered with a layer of velvet to provide all-round protection. The water level will continue to recede for a day. This day seems to be the last breathing time God gives to mankind. When the time is up, people will be greeted by an even more cruel disaster. If someone could seize the opportunity of this day and go out to find some food, they would feel much better in the early stage of the extreme cold. Unfortunately, few people can seize the opportunity. As people were immersed in the joy that the rainstorm had finally ended and celebrating their survival, no one noticed that a new round of danger was quietly approaching. After midnight, the temperature dropped drastically. The heater in the house had already been lit, and the floor heating was also very warm. Shu Xin stood in front of the window wrapped in a blanket and watched the thermometer outdoors drop from 20 degrees above zero to single digits in just a few seconds. The temperature on the thermometer was still dropping so fast. I didn't know how many people would die silently in this silent night tonight. The glass window in front of her, which was still wet with rain, was covered with a thin layer of white frost. Shu Xin had no intention of continuing to look at it. She pulled the curtains, turned around, and lay back on the bed to sleep. The development of the world has long been determined. She is still unable to truly adapt to the survival rules of this world. It is difficult for her to survive alone in this world, and she is not able to provide help to others. Even in the face of such a subversive disaster, the officials who have integrated the power and resources of a country can only do very limited things. The next morning, people woke up and were horrified to find that the temperature was abnormally cold. They shivered and wrapped themselves tightly in quilts, but when they turned around, they found that the person sleeping next to them had already been frozen stiff and had stopped breathing. One after another, grief-stricken cries rang out in every building in the community. All of them found that their loved ones had frozen to death in their sleep when they woke up. They were happy that the rainstorm was finally over the day before, but found out the next day that there was much more waiting for them. After one night, the flood that had not completely receded was directly frozen. Looking around, everything was white, and the outside had turned into a world of ice and snow. Even the most slow-witted people realized that this disaster might really be the end of the world. The double blow of loss of hope and the death of loved ones caused some people with poor psychological endurance to faint on the spot, unwilling to accept the cruel reality. Another group of people who committed crimes during the rainstorm had a completely different mood. The heavy rain stopped, and people like them who had done a lot of bad things in the past three months were all worried that they would be arrested and thrown into prison for trial, and they were frightened all day long. The arrival of extreme cold made them completely relieved. It seemed that it was really like what was said on the Internet, the end of the world had come, no one would hold them accountable for their evil deeds, and they could continue to live without restraint. The social civilization and order that took thousands of years to build finally collapsed completely after the arrival of extreme cold.
Chapter 30: The temperature dropped to minus thirty degrees Celsius when going out. City A is located in the north-central part of China. In the past, the lowest temperature in winter was only minus ten degrees Celsius. Minus thirty degrees Celsius was unbearable for the people in City A who had never experienced extremely cold temperatures. Not to mention that the temperature is still dropping from minus 30 degrees Celsius. The subsequent temperature drop will not be as large and sudden as on the first day, but will drop gradually until it reaches minus 50 degrees Celsius. Heavy rains around the world have destroyed most power systems. The arrival of extreme cold has made it completely impossible to repair the power systems. Electricity cannot be used for heating, and people can only resort to the most primitive method of burning fires for heating. In order to resist the cold weather, people dismantled all the combustible items within sight in their homes, piled them together, and used them to burn for heating. The greening of their community is really good. It was one of the selling points of the publicity at the beginning. Now, those trees that are not completely frozen have become resources that people in the community are competing for. Several bloody fights have occurred in the community in just a few days. For a while, everyone in the community was in danger. None of this has anything to do with Shuxin and the others. They plan to go out and find some things, adapt to the bad weather, and bring back some supplies to hide from others. Even though the four of them were wrapped tightly, they shivered from the cold the moment they left the building. Shu Xin silently wrapped herself tightly in her down jacket. Fortunately, she also put a layer of hot pack inside, otherwise she would definitely not be able to withstand the temperature of minus 40 degrees Celsius. "Hiss—it's so cold!" Bu Xiangwen shook his body slightly exaggeratedly. "Let's go. The place we are going to today is a little far from here. Let's change our shoes and set off quickly." Yan Mo ruthlessly interrupted Bu Xiangwen's show of humor. "Yeah." Several people quickly found a sheltered place, changed into the skates they were holding, and waited for Yan Mo to confirm the direction, and Shu Xin and the others quickly followed. The ground was covered with thick and smooth ice, so they chose ice skates for their trip, which were convenient and not too eye-catching. If you walk on the road wearing ordinary shoes, you will fall no matter how careful you are. Once you fall, the supplies you have worked so hard to find will be snatched away by someone who is secretly spying on you. If you refuse to give the supplies, you will be beaten and kicked. You will lose both the wife and the army. It is better to hand over the supplies directly from the beginning to avoid a beating. He who knows the times is a hero. Shuxin and his friends' destination this time was a commercial office building, which housed many high-tech companies, agricultural companies and biological companies. These three types of companies were their target this time. In the future they will definitely have to build their own base. In the apocalypse, it is safest to have their lives and property in their own hands. The existence of the base on the third level of Shuxin Space saves them the trouble of building a base in the early stages. They only need to kill more zombies and look for crystal cores. The base will definitely not have just the four of them. When there are more people, feeding will become a big problem. Although there are a lot of supplies stored in the Shuxin space, they are not renewable resources and cannot withstand the unlimited consumption of the people in the base. Being able to produce by themselves is the long-term guarantee. After sliding for about half an hour, Shuxin and the others arrived at today's destination. The high-end office building in front of them was far away from the city center, and there were relatively few residents around. When people searched for supplies, they gave priority to shopping malls, supermarkets and other places with plenty of food. There was no sign of other people breaking in, so the things inside should not have been damaged. Finding a dead corner, Mu Qimai took out tools from his bag and broke an entire solid glass window with almost no sound. Shu Xin was secretly amazed as she watched from the side, looking at the skillful technique, she knew that the man must have done this kind of thing by breaking into things through windows many times before. She wondered what kind of shameful things Mu Qimai had done to help her boyfriend in the past, would it be possible... "Hiss - why did you hit me?" There was a sudden pain on her forehead, Shu Xin covered the place where she was hit, and looked at Yan Mo with accusatory eyes. "What are you thinking about? Breaking the window silently was one of our original training items. It was to enable us to leave quickly without alerting others in an emergency. It has nothing to do with those messy guesses in your mind." Yan Mo knew Shu Xin's little expression very well. As soon as she saw the movement of her eyes, he knew that she was starting to fantasize about something again. "So that's how it is." Shu Xin covered her head and turned away, then turned back quickly unwillingly, "Has the situation I thought about really never happened?" "No!" "Oh~ okay then." There was a hint of regret in Shu Xin's voice as she didn't get a positive answer. While Mu Qimai opened the window, Shuxin and the other two were not idle either. They changed their shoes and, taking advantage of Yan Mo's fake move of using space, Shuxin quickly put away her skates and took out the backpack she had prepared earlier. Each of the four people had a black backpack. Shu Xin and Yan Mo, Bu Xiangwen and Mu Qimai were divided into two groups to collect supplies. Acting separately would be much more efficient. If Bu Xiangwen and Mu Qimai find something too big to take away, they can mark it first and wait for Yan Mo and Shu Xin to collect it. Most of the things in the space were not consumed during the three months. Most of the things consumed were the stockpiled cooked food. The other things were from the storage room at home. Before going out, Shuxin went to the storage room to replenish the goods. It has to be said that immersive replenishment is really a very healing process. Anyway, Shuxin fell in love with this feeling. Integrate the things in the space and make room for the things you want to collect today. Shu Xin and Yan Mo were responsible for searching the top ten floors. The eleventh to thirteenth floors belonged to the same high-tech agricultural company. The new variety of crops they cultivated won an award last year. It has the advantages of being drought-resistant and cold-resistant, insect-resistant and pest-resistant, and able to produce high yields even in poor soil conditions. It was officially put into production this year. The company's warehouse has a lot of seeds stored, and Shuxin put them all into her own space without any hesitation. Shuxin took care of all the relevant information, books, computers for recording data, research equipment, etc. and stored them all in the space. With these things, you won't have to worry about not having information and tools when you do research in the future. Everything is ready, and when the time comes, you just need to find a great idiot who knows these and give the things to him to study. (A future big enemy: Thank you so much for starting to plan so early! Really screwed Q!)
