XII. Decision (The Last World)
On the third day of the apocalypse, a large number of signal towers were damaged in various places, resulting in the unusability of networks and communications. This was followed by an unexplained power outage on the fifth day, and a sudden global torrential rainstorm carrying the virus on the seventh day, which polluted the water and made it unusable.
The end times have already begun two weeks ago, and most people have come to terms with the reality that the end times will not end for a while.
Some people who do not have food and water stored at home have to go out in search of food. Of course, there are very few people who are unwilling and afraid to go out and choose to hold on at home.
During this period, the official army cleaned up the zombies on the streets. However, due to various reasons such as terrain, gaps in buildings, and dense population, the army was only able to clear a few mainly relatively safe roads.
During the sweep, the army used loudspeakers to inform residents that a temporary shelter had been set up in the suburbs, and that food and water would be provided in the shelter for the time being.
On the way to clean up, some of the rescue teams and cleaning teams that were sent out were even besieged and surrounded by zombies. This led to a lot of sacrifices in the army.
Because on the way to clean up zombies, the gathering of large crowds will attract zombies. And the sound of gunshots killing zombies, the sound of cars, and the sound of people gathering and complaining will also attract zombies.
Due to the reduced number of casualties among the military and the need to maintain safety and order in the makeshift shelters, residents are left to find ways to get to the makeshift shelters on their own.
Inevitably, there were some discordant voices, such as the idea that the army should go to the homes and take them to the shelters in person.
There were fewer and fewer people in the city centres, and most people followed the army's arrangements to go to temporary shelters set up by the army.
Yiyi's family did not go to the shelter set up by the army. Because their villa has been renovated, they still have a certain amount of defense in the early stage. The supplies they had prepared were enough for their family, and the food and water provided by the temporary shelter were not necessary for them. Moreover, there must be a lot of people in the temporary shelter, and even if there is an army to maintain it, there will inevitably be some friction and chaos.
The same was true of the Meng family, who did not go to the temporary shelter set up in their city. And the fact that Li Liyun has space has been told to others by Guo Xiulan, but she did not say how big the space is.
The materials in the room and basement of the villa have been collected into the space by Meng Guoqiang, the old man Meng, and only the food for one or two weeks is left in the villa. Usually, if you need to use something, you can find Li Liyun.
In the last month of the world, the populace was officially notified that bases had been established in the provinces. Let the people follow the city army to the base, and encourage the people who have not entered the temporary shelter to go to the base established in the provinces to build the base together.
In addition to the official bases, there are also a number of small bases composed of civil society organizations in various places. Most of these small bases are reluctant to move to official bases because of long distances and other reasons.
The closest official base to S and K is established in their provincial capital, T. To get from City K to the base in City T, you need to pass through City S.
On the first day they received the official notice on the radio, the Meng family decided to go to the T City base.
Because they found that the number of zombies around them seems to be increasing recently. Since most of the people have withdrawn from the city, the zombies in the city have also wandered around because they can't find their targets, and the number of zombies wandering around their homes has increased recently.
They are afraid that if they don't leave early, when they accidentally make a big noise, they will be surrounded by too many zombies around, and they can't leave if they want to.
The Meng family was discussing in the living room at this time when their family would leave for the T City base.
Meng Guoqiang sat on the sofa and looked at everyone: "You all heard it just now, then tell me what you think?" We're definitely going to the base in T City, when to go, or not to go with the army from the makeshift shelter. ”
"I'm sure I'll go with the army, at least I feel like it's safer on the road." Meng Chufeng picked up the fruit on the table and said while eating.
"Well, I think so too. We'll have to get to the shelter before the troops on the makeshift side leave, or we'll miss it. Meng Liang added next to him.
"Now there is another question, Mom and Dad, you can tell us the right word. Have all the materials we had prepared in the warehouse been stored in the space? If it's hard to get to the warehouse now, there's no way we're going to just throw those supplies away. What a waste if that's the case. ”
Meng Jiang finally found an opportunity to say what he had always wanted to say. If there were still supplies in the warehouse, it would be fine if their family had been in K City before. Even if there is difficulty on the way there, you can still get it. They are now leaving K City to go to the base, and with such a long journey, it is uncertain whether they will return to K City in the future.
However, even if there were still materials in the original warehouse, they may not be there now, and they may have been taken away. A few days after the end of the world began, people began to grab things from shops and supermarkets.
Hearing Meng Jiang's words, everyone looked at Li Liyun.
Li Liyun nodded.
Everyone didn't say anything tacitly after seeing Li Liyun nodding, and didn't ask Li Liyun how big her space was, and actually put all the supplies in.
Although Sun Yunling, who was sitting next to Meng Jiang, wanted to ask clearly, she only opened her mouth and didn't ask.
Meng Guoqiang coughed lightly twice, and after everyone paid attention to him, he clapped his hand and said, "Then we feel like we should go back and pack up our things now." We went to the temporary shelter as soon as possible and went to the base with the military. ”
"Okay." Everyone nodded.
————————
Yiyi saw the Meng family's discussion through the screen in the room. Xiaoxiao also leaned her head in front of the screen, and found that they were really going to leave the house to go to that base, which was a bit incredible.
Xiaoxiao stretched out her hand and patted Yiyi, signaling that it had something to say to her.
"What's wrong?"
"Yiyi, why do you think they can't figure out what kind of base they want to go to? Isn't it good to have food and drink at home? You can also sleep comfortably when you want. Eh, I feel like I'm a little sleepy right now. ”
“..... Because if they don't leave, they are likely to be surrounded by zombies, and they may not have the ability to drag their families and carry so many things to escape in the zombie crowd. ”
"Well, I understand when you say that. Because they are weak, they can only run away and retreat in advance, right? I know that feeling, that's how I used to be when I was in space. When other people tried to bully me, I would run away because I couldn't beat them. The little novel said that he felt sad, and felt a little sorry for himself.
It decided that it had to find a way to increase its attack power so that it could counterattack! Otherwise, as soon as he leaves Yiyi after returning to the space, he will be bullied, eh.
"Well, you're right. We also had to go to the base so I could see her mission up close. Otherwise, looking through a screen in a room like this is no different from being in a space. ”
"Ah, we're going too."
"Well, but we'll have some time to go. We're on our way when they're about to pass through S City, so maybe we'll run into them again. I'll talk to my parents later. ”
