Chapter 57: Roommates Talk
"Alas! At the time of the power outage, we all thought it was a temporary power outage, circuit maintenance and the like, and we didn't take it for a while, so we did what we had to do. At that time, I still complained at home: no electricity, no network, but boring. ”
Li Xiange poured bitter water on Xiaoquan: "Later, after I didn't call, the aunts and uncles in the residential area where I lived panicked and began to rush to buy food from the surrounding supermarkets and stores.
My parents also joined in and grabbed a lot of food. These people did this together, and the surrounding stores were empty for a while. Some young people who are younger, maybe a few years older than us, who live alone, don't have that consciousness, so they can only go hungry, and they have no money in their hands to buy them. What's more, the food was already very expensive during that time, and the price increased a lot. ”
"Yes, there are very few shops open on the food street next to the school, and occasionally I come across a mobile cart selling breakfast, and the price is so expensive." Koizumi echoed in on the side.
"Yes! Then there were some second-rate people in the neighboring community who took advantage of the lack of electricity and no monitoring, picked some lonely and widowed elderly people to start and snatch the food hoarded by the elderly. And that's not all, there are several! Xian Ge said in surprise.
"Ah—did that cause any more serious consequences besides property damage?" Koizumi asked with concern.
"If you have no money and food, you will have no way to live!" Xian Ge sighed.
Moreover, one of the old men who was robbed died not long after. Although the hospital and the police sent people, it was determined that the weather was too cold for the old man to suddenly fall ill and leave. But listening to people nearby, the old man couldn't get around his heart disease. ”
"Hey, it's really hard!" Koizumi felt very uncomfortable when he heard this.
"So, good Koizumi, it's not that I forgot you, but my parents really don't worry about me going out alone." In order to break the heavy atmosphere, Xian Ge is deliberately begging for mercy.
"It's really fine! On the contrary, I am very happy to have you remember me! Koizumi replied with a smile.
"By the way, do you want to withdraw cash? My parents are in the bank, and if you need it, I can help you get a number and occupy a seat. Xian Ge suddenly remembered to ask Lin Xiaoquan.
"Good string song, thank you! At that time, I was not busy with anything, and I queued up early in the morning to withdraw the money I could withdraw, otherwise I would have been sad for the rest of the day. The food in the canteen is not cheap now! Koizumi sincerely thanked him and diverted the topic.
"Well, I also heard from my parents, and now the prices outside are so expensive." Then, Li Xiange was embarrassed to continue: "Just after the Chinese New Year, I still complained about my weak mouth, disgusted that the food at home was not good, my parents said that they found that there were few types of food sold outside, and the prices of things were expensive. ”
"Yes! You'll find out later when you go downstairs to the cafeteria! Koizumi nodded and said.
"Wait for me a little longer, I'll clean up quickly, and I'll go downstairs with you to eat later." The string song is divided by two by three, and the action is accelerated to pack the luggage at hand.
"I'm not going! Eat more at noon in the dining hall, and just eat at night. I'll also pack up, I just came back from Professor Ying's place, and I sorted out the information at hand. "Koizumi used to have two days in the days when his roommates didn't come back, and sometimes even three days before he had a meal in the cafeteria.
Before Xian Ge could react for a while, he answered. In the past, Koizumi often came back from Professor Ying to "pick up work", and she thought that Koizumi would not go to the cafeteria to eat the main meal in order to rush to work like before.
