Restricting electricity across the board is undoubtedly a huge impact for shelters.

Although the urban area has adopted a phased water supply and power supply policy before, which limits the power supply time, the electricity consumption is still not limited during the power supply period.

Therefore, many people will charge the energy storage equipment at hand during this time, so that they can use it after the power supply is stopped.

For example, every household is equipped with emergency lights for lighting, some electronic devices that have been saved before the disaster, and some small household appliances that can be recharged...... These are the things that the survivors in the shelter take to recharge their batteries every day.

The electronic devices that were preserved before the disaster provided one of the few recreational devices in the shelter, and the emergency lights were the only lighting fixtures for households in the event of a power outage.

After all, it is forbidden to use candles and other open flame lighting that can cause fires in evacuation shelters, and emergency lights are useful for equipment that can provide light for a long time and can also be used as a battery.

However, now that the use of electricity has been completely restricted, the use of various electrical equipment has been greatly restricted, and this has also caused considerable panic.

"What the hell is going on? Why do you suddenly stop using electricity? Is this the lack of lighting even for the power supply time? One of the survivors, with obvious panic and worry on his face, asked the vault administrators what was going on.

"yes, yes! What the hell is going on? Didn't the city government have an explanation? The attitude of the other survivor was noticeably more intense, but it was still nervous and worried.

Of course, there are also people who have long been dissatisfied with the management of the shelter, and they also take the opportunity to vent their emotions: "What the hell are you doing? Didn't you take the lives of our people to heart, did you? ”

Although it is said that it is now the end of the world, books still have to be read, homework still has to be written, and teaching points have been set up in each shelter, and daily teaching activities are still going on.

But this also caused parents to worry: "How can there be no electricity!" Children also have to read their homework! ”

In the face of these various problems, the managers of the various shelters can only persuade them to be as kind as possible with the help of the police, explaining the current situation and asking everyone to overcome the difficulties.

Although most people are very uneasy about this, since the explanation given by the city government is only temporary, they are still willing to choose to believe the explanation of the city government and overcome the difficulties for the time being.

Of course, there are also people who want to take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble or guys with ulterior motives, but these people are all arrested by the police without exception.

What awaits them is not imprisonment and imprisonment, but rather hard labor.

This is also the main punishment for criminals after the disaster, after all, there are no prisons to hold prisoners now, and it is better to send them to work than to waste food.

Under this control, the shelters did not cause any trouble, and the survivors silently accepted the status quo, believing that the crisis was temporary.

……

For official shelters, this is a temporary crisis or a temporary difficulty, but for individual shelters, the impact is slight.

Of course, the self-sufficient private shelters do not feel the crisis, and they do not rely on the power and water supply of the city government, so they do not feel that it has any effect.

A shelter like Chen Xin is a typical example of this.

But for a shelter like Mo Qingyan, which relies on electricity and running water from official shelter power lines, the city government restricts power supply? It's going to be fatal.

Mo Qingyan had a good life before? Thanks to her ability to get electricity from the official vault's power lines to keep her vault running? But now the official restrictions on power supply? Private shelters like hers are clearly in jeopardy.

There is not enough electricity for heating, lighting, maintaining greenhouses...... Or even for some people? Even heating food has become difficult.

Obviously, Mo Qingyan has fallen into a crisis at this time.

Although the ground source heat pump unit installed for her before Chen Xin ensures that her home has electricity for heating and basic lighting? But her ground source heat pump has limited power? The electricity that can be generated is only the surplus after heating and maintaining the aquaponics system, and the power to maintain the lighting is barely enough to drive other electrical equipment.

“…… So now I can only struggle to survive, if it weren't for the ingredients, you helped me install a ground source heat pump? I'm sure I've frozen to death by now. "Through the radio? While Mo Qingyan explained her current situation to Chen Xin, she was also complaining to him.

"Then what are you going to do now, Dragon Lady? Will your family be able to sustain it? Listening to Mo Qingyan talk about the problems in her family, Chen Xin was also quite concerned about her situation.

In the face of Chen Xin's concern, Mo Qingyan's tone looked helpless: "It's not that I can't hold on, there is a ground source heat pump you helped me install?" Heating is not a problem, and I also got that aquaponics up? Can ground source heat pumps keep them running, so you don't have to worry about eating? There is no electricity, lighting and heating food is very problematic. ”

If it was before the disaster? Can you still use piped gas? But with disaster on the horizon? The piped gas that used to go to every household is obviously no longer usable.

And the self-heating food stored before the disaster is also limited, and now that more than half a year has passed, the self-heating food stored in Mo Qingyan's hands has almost been consumed, and the rest are canned food that must be heated before eating.

Although the geothermal heat pump and aquaponics system that Chen Xin helped her build can provide her and her sister with a steady stream of vegetables and fish as food, it is clear that these things cannot be eaten raw.

Maybe vegetables can be eaten directly after chopping them and seasoning them like eating salad, but eating only vegetables is undoubtedly not enough to fill your stomach.

Hearing Mo Qingyan tell her about her situation, Chen Xin hesitated for a moment before saying to her: "Why don't you move to me for a while?" The problems on the city side should only be temporary, and it will be good to get through this time. ”

"Moved to you? Ingredients: Where do you have a place for me and Xiaoxin to live? Mo Qingyan obviously felt very unbelievable about Chen Xin's proposal, she had also been to Chen Xin's house, although it was said that all kinds of conditions were complete, but it obviously didn't look like she could live two more people.

"Regarding this, I recently remodeled the room, and I came out with an extra bedroom, which can accommodate a few more people, and Ah Lan and Xiao Ding are also here with me now." Chen Xin explained to Mo Qingyan, and motioned for Qin Lan to come over and help him persuade Mo Qingyan.

Qin Lan couldn't help but be a little surprised by Chen Xin's move, but she still helped him explain to Mo Qingyan: "Qingyan, Ah Xin can live here with two more people now, you can move here, it's okay." ”

Just after saying this, Qin Lan glanced at Chen Xin angrily.

"Then let me think about it." Mo Qingyan didn't make a decision right away, and after replying, the communication was disconnected.

After Mo Qingyan disconnected the communication, Qin Lan asked according to Chen Xin: "Ah Xin, I can understand if you let Qingyan and Qingxin move over, but where do you let them live when they come?" ”

"Let them live in my house, and I'll sleep on the couch, but it's just for a while, no problem." Chen Xin smiled at Qin Lan, obviously having made arrangements for this.

Let Mo Qingyan and Mo Qingxin come over for a few days temporarily, sleep on the two beds in his room, and sleep on the sofa in the living room by himself, if it is only a few days, there is nothing difficult to accept to deal with the past.

However, when Qin Lan heard Chen Xin say this, she snorted angrily: "You know that you are a good person!" You sleep on the sofa by yourself and let Qingyan and Qingxin sleep in your bed? Do you think it's appropriate? ”

"Well, this ......" Chen Xin scratched his head a little in the face of Qin Lan's questioning, not knowing what was inappropriate.

Seeing Chen Xin's attitude, Qin Lan could only helplessly glance at him, and said angrily to him: "I'll move to your room to sleep, and let Qingyan and Qingxin squeeze the vacant bed, so it's no problem." ”

"Huh? Lan, will you move to my room? Chen Xin was surprised by what Qin Lan said, although this arrangement was simply the best situation for him, he still didn't understand why Qin Lan arranged it like this.

"Ahhh It's just me and you in the same room, right? Seeing that Chen Xin hadn't understood yet, Qin Lan could only explain to him: "Of course it's okay for you to let Qingyan and Qingxin move in, but you let the two of them live in your room, and you sleep on the sofa by yourself, what do you let Qingyan think?" She came to take refuge, but she squeezed you so that you had no place to sleep? ”

Hearing Qin Lan say this, Chen Xin also reacted.

Although he and Mo Qingyan are good brothers, even if they sleep in the same bed, it doesn't matter, but there is really no reason to let the guests sleep in the bed and the host sleep on the sofa.

"That's the same, then let's do what you said." Chen Xin understood and agreed to Qin Lan's arrangement.

Seeing that Chen Xin agreed, Qin Lan nodded, let him go back to the room, and planned to carry his luggage over.

However, seeing Qin Lan carrying her luggage, Ding Ning, who was resting in the room, suddenly asked in surprise, "Sister Lan, what are you doing here?" Finally can't help but get back together with Ah Xin? ”

When Qin Lan heard Ding Ning say this, she shook her head and said, "No, Ah Xin asked Qingyan and Qingxin to move over temporarily, and there is a little situation in the city." I moved to his room and slept on the empty bed, which was vacant for Qingyan and Qingxin, and the two sisters could sleep in the same bed. ”

"Huh? I thought you had finally figured it out, Sister Lan, and wanted to get back together with Ah Xin! Ding Ning looked regretful, and seemed to feel that it was a waste for Qin Lan and Chen Xin not to take this opportunity to get back together.

Regarding Ding Ning's regret, Qin Lan just sighed helplessly: "It is impossible for me and him to get back together." ”
