"There's a power outage?"

Chen Xu was a little surprised, and he had the impression that he had moved here for two years and there had been no power outage.

It seems that since the beginning of the year of the environmental protection investigation, many factories with high pollution and high energy consumption have been shut down. Since then, there has been no power rationing.

With this in mind, he went downstairs to buy some bread and milk at the cake shop he frequented on the corner.

If he had a choice, he preferred a hot breakfast. Unfortunately, a steamed bun shop on the street moved out a few months ago because the rent of the shop had risen too much.

As soon as he walked out on the street, he felt very wrong.

What about people?

There was not a single person on the entire street.

Now it's the rush hour for work, there are more than a dozen buildings on this street, and there are not a thousand but hundreds of people living in it, and at this time, there are a lot of people rushing to work-

Wrong!

Chen Xu's head exploded, thinking of a possibility.

This isn't going to be a dream.

Thinking of this, the briefcase in his hand fell to the ground with a click.

He looked at the empty street in front of him and was speechless in shock.

After a moment, he muttered, "I should have thought of it." ”

Sure enough, it's 100% virtual reality.

There are no brilliant light and shadow effects, no shocking scenes. But everything was no different from reality, and when he woke up, he didn't realize that he was already in a dream.

He pinched the back of his hand lightly, and felt the slight pain clearly.

"Even the pain sensation is completely simulated, here, is it really in a dream?"

His heart faltered a little.

Distraught, he grabbed the briefcase on the ground and ran forward.

On the empty street, you can see mobile phones, wallets and keys on the ground from time to time. He ignored it and ran until the end of the street, turning the corner, and it was the main road.

He stopped, stood at the corner of the street, and looked at the road ahead.

The road is full of all kinds of vehicles parked. Most of the shops on both sides of the road are open, and everything seems to be the same as usual.

The only difference is that there is no one, no one.

He walked step by step to the bus stop, which was already crowded with people who wanted to take the bus at this time of day. Now, all that's left is a pile of phone wallet keys and various bags on the ground.

"People are gone, but things are left?"

He saw something on the ground, his scalp tightened a little, and he guessed the setting of the dream. At a certain moment, perhaps the moment he woke up, the people here disappeared at the same time, but the things on his body remained in place.

It's like pressing the pause button and then clearing the person.

Wrong.

He looked at the cars parked on the road, and it should be said that it was a static button.

Otherwise, these vehicles that were originally moving, after the driver disappeared, would have been hit into a ball by inertia.

"Anyway, let's go to the company first."

He stood there and watched for a while, feeling that it was more reassuring to rush to the company.

But how?

He looked at the bus parked more than ten meters away, and was a little embarrassed. Do you have to walk on two legs? Seven or eight stations away, you can't walk for an hour.

Suddenly, his heart moved, if the thing remained in place after the person disappeared, then the car keys should still be there.

He walked to the nearest car, looked through the window, and sure enough, the key was still there.

………………

Chen Xu drove a black Volkswagen and drove slowly in the direction of the company.

There are too many vehicles on the road, especially in front of traffic light intersections, and it is often a bunch of cars that completely block the road. In this case, he had to drive onto the sidewalk.

He got a driver's license in his senior year, and he rarely drove a car, and his driving skills were very rusty, and when he drove to the sidewalk, the body was scratched several times, and the back door was scraped and deformed.

However, at this time, he couldn't care about this, and all his attention was observing the situation around him.

When the car stopped in front of the company building, he was sure that this was indeed the inside of a dream.

Although it is not a CBD, there are several office buildings nearby, and there is a commercial street next door, and there are several large shopping malls with huge people/traffic every day, especially during the morning rush hour.

Now, the whole road was silent, there was no one there, and there was no sound to be heard except for the engine of the car he was driving.

The silence sent him panicked.

Chen Xu let go of the steering wheel, rubbed his face vigorously, and sighed, "This is different from what I thought." ”

When you enter the dream realm, there must at least be a ritual process.

At the very least, you have to give him a mental preparation.

Who would have thought that this system did not follow the routine at all, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he went directly into the dream.

It's so real, so real that he can't tell if it's a dream or a reality.

To tell the truth, he drove all the way over, and when he saw the empty cars parked on the road, the empty roads, and the empty shops on both sides, his heart was really furious. It was nothing like he had imagined.

"Forget it, it's all here, think about how to spend these one hundred and eighty days." Chen Xu patted his face and put these messy thoughts away. I opened the briefcase and took out a pen and paper. Lying on the steering wheel, I wrote.

At this time, if he doesn't find something to do, he won't be able to stand it.

He concentrated and gathered his thoughts.

First, there is water and food. The most important thing is to eat and drink.

He wrote these two words in the first line.

Don't worry about the water problem, there are many bottled mineral water in every supermarket, and he can't use up the water in the city alone for the rest of his life.

Moreover, bottled mineral water generally has a shelf life of one year, so there is no need to worry about spoilage.

The trouble is that the food, rice and noodles have been stored for a long time. Meat and vegetables don't last long, especially meat, which can be spoiled in a day or two in this weather.

"Yes, you have to collect enough meat to preserve it first, otherwise you will have to nibble on canned food every day in the future."

As a carnivore, Chen Xu couldn't tolerate the days when there was no meat to eat, so he wrote the words meat and vegetables on the second line and began to take action.

If you want to find a lot of fresh meat, you usually think of meat markets and supermarkets. Chen Xu went to the best restaurant near the company.

In his opinion, the best place to find a base camp is neither a luxury villa nor a big supermarket. It's restaurants. It's better to go to a higher-end restaurant, where the ingredients are readily available and have a wide variety, so you don't have to bother to go to the market to collect them.

What's more, larger restaurants have freezers, which are the best place to store meat.

Another point is that there are many large supermarkets with all the daily necessities.

Such a place as a base camp is simply perfect.
