Chapter 15 Inquiring about the situation
Lin Xiaoquan plans to work more in the Taoyuan space in the next time, harvesting, storing, and hoarding materials in a timely manner.
That night, after eating and drinking, Koizumi hurried to pick in the space. I found a wooden trailer from the old house in the old village from the house, put a few bamboo baskets on it, dragged it to the foot of the mountain, and began to harvest and pick it on a large scale.
Whether it is a staple food crop or a planted vegetable and fruit in the field, like locusts passing through the country, "not a single leaf is left", dragging a cart back and forth several times, the harvest is sorted and placed in the warehouse.
Then, regardless of the fatigue of his body, Lin Xiaoquan continued to carry out a new round of planting without stopping.
There was no obvious day and night in the Taoyuan space, Lin Xiaoquan didn't care about the time for a while, and was busy until the middle of the night, before dragging his tired body to wash and sleep.
After a good night's sleep, Lin Xiaoquan opened his eyes and was shocked to see the time on the watch on the bedside table, it was almost 10 o'clock in the morning. Koizumi hurried to wash up, took out the steaming food from the warehouse, and put on the "equipment" he wore yesterday, and then planned to leave the space.
Before leaving the Taoyuan space, Lin Xiaoquan took out the diagonal cloth bag he used to study in the cabinet and carried it on his back, and put a bottle of water in it. In case you are thirsty on the way back to school, it is better to prepare in advance, unlike yesterday, when you have no treasures and dare not use them openly.
Waiting cautiously to return to the real public toilet, Koizumi heard the voices of people boiling outside. She hesitated in her mind for less than a second, intending to go out and see what was going on.
After Lin Xiaoquan came out of the public toilet, he found that the sky was still dark near noon, but many people gathered at the entrance of the civic center not far away, and there were faint lights, lights and shadows from the civic center building.
Koizumi rubbed his eyes vigorously in disbelief, and looked around, and found that his surroundings were no different from yesterday: the weather was as cold as ever, the sky was as dark as ever, and there was still no light source in the building, but as he took a step closer and closer to the civic center, Koizumi was sure that he had indeed seen the interior light from the building not far away.
When Koizumi walked into the gathered crowd, he heard everyone's gossip exchange:
"At the beginning of the power outage, I thought it would be a temporary power outage, just like the previous circuit maintenance."
"yes, so do I. As a result, there was no call until midnight, so we didn't cook or take a shower that night, and went to bed early. ”
"Hey, what my family has been talking about the most these days is that they don't have access to the Internet, and they can't use mobile phones and computers."
"I'm scared to death, and suddenly there is no electricity for days. I don't know what kind of life I'm having. ”
"Fortunately, there were a lot of New Year's goods prepared before, so I can deal with the past few days."
"Yes, just a few bites. It's a strange cold day. ”
"Huh? Is it an incoming call now? ”
"It seems that early this morning, I saw that there was a faint light near here, so I hurried to inquire about the situation."
"So what's going on now?"
Lin Xiaoquan listened to everyone's conversation, and learned that the surrounding residents have not been living a good life in the past few days. I was still optimistic in my heart: Yesterday, because of an accident, I couldn't return to school in time, resulting in being stranded in the city center, and today I happened to encounter the moment of calling, which can be regarded as a crooked hit.
"Z-z-" Koizumi didn't wait long when he came to the crowd before he heard the sound of the radio around him.
