Chapter 5 Accidents Happen
As the overwhelming reports from abroad returned to China, panic inevitably began to spread, and various rumors began to fly all over the sky.
Some knowledgeable people have already begun to rush to buy some necessary daily necessities.
When Lin Li walked out of the community, he had already seen a long queue at the door of the supermarket and in front of the bank's ATM, but fortunately, it was only afternoon, and there were no signs of the end of the world in the eastern hemisphere where the sun did not set.
The mood was tense, but not too panicked, and the streets were filled with police officers on duty to help keep the law and order.
In general, the situation has not deteriorated, people are still living as they should live, they should work. Only a very small number of people rush to buy daily necessities in advance.
But Lin Li knew that this calm was only temporary, and once it was eight o'clock in the afternoon, that is, at night, when there was a terrifying scene of the sun not setting in the country, people's panic would be completely ignited.
At that time, all supermarkets, large shopping malls, there will be a crazy rush to buy. When the time comes, money may not be able to buy what you need.
Taking advantage of the fact that the rush to buy has not yet happened, Lin Li must of course prepare enough supplies in advance. Food is always the most important thing at any given time.
In the last days, food is more precious than gold. Especially after three years, the food shortage of ordinary people began to be sharp. Many people can do anything crazy to fill their stomachs.
A steaming bun every day can support a movie star who was once popular, and a bag of expired instant noodles can be exchanged for the body of a yellow flower girl......
There are more and more terrifying things, and Lin Li is not willing to think about them until now.
He didn't rush to the supermarket as soon as possible, but first came to the water station outside the community, in the last days, food is important, and safe drinking water sources are also very important.
Lin Li even took a breath, bought all the bottled mineral water at the water station, moved all of them back to his room, and then rushed to the nearest supermarket in a hurry.
When he arrived at the supermarket, the supermarket was already overcrowded, and the disaster had not yet happened, but the number of people shopping in the supermarket had increased significantly.
Fortunately, there is still a period of time before the crazy rush to buy in the previous life, and the supply of supermarkets is still very sufficient.
Lin Li didn't hesitate, unlike other people who were still hesitating, three years of experience in surviving in the last days let him know what to buy and what not to buy.
Directly over the rows of shelves, Lin Li walked directly to the shelves where biscuits and various instant noodles were stored, found a staff member, pointed to the row of shelves and said lightly:
"I want all these things on the shelves!"
"Also, I want all those candies and canned food!"
"You find a few cars and send them to Qingfeng Mingyue Community!"
As he spoke, Lin Li pointed to the shelves where candy and canned food were stored not far away, and said in a deep voice.
The crowd of people who were still choosing what to buy nearby were almost stunned, and the supermarket staff were also shocked, they had seen a lot of people hoarding goods, but it was the first time they had seen Lin Li sweep all at once.
In the end, even the manager of the supermarket was alarmed, and a middle-aged woman wearing a professional skirt walked over quickly, and asked Lin Li in a suspicious tone:
"Sir, are you sure you're going to buy everything here, do you know how much it costs?"
Lin Li was too lazy to talk nonsense, opened the canvas bag in his hand, took out several thick stacks of red tickets on the spot, and threw them directly at the cash register, "Here are 100,000 yuan, you can look at it!" ”
What, 100,000 pieces!
The supermarket manager was taken aback again, and the nearby shopping crowd also shook their heads and sighed, the world of the rich is really not something that they ordinary people can understand.
Among them, there are also some smart people, seeing Lin Li's crazy moves, and thinking of the overwhelming reports on the Internet, they quietly joined in the rush to buy.
Of course, these have nothing to do with Lin Li. After paying the bill and discussing the delivery time with the supermarket manager, Lin immediately walked out of the supermarket and went straight to the pharmacy.
He is not the low-level ability he will be in three years now, he will also be injured, he may also be sick, prepare some medicines in advance, and be prepared.
When coming out of the pharmacy. Lin Li found that his wallet quickly dried up, leaving less than 20,000 yuan.
He thought about it, left a few hundred yuan on his body, and the rest of the money, when he passed by a fitness shop, he bought a sandbag and some fitness equipment, and sent them all to Qingfeng Mingyue Community.
By the time this moment was over, an afternoon had passed quickly.
At this time, it is also pointing to eight o'clock in the evening!
At this time of year, the sky is already dark, and it may be completely dark in some areas. Today, however, the sky is still clear and the sun is shining.
Finally, here in the Eastern Hemisphere, the terrifying sight of the sun never setting has also begun! The entire Anseong where he was immediately in an uproar.
Through the half-open windows, you can clearly hear the frightened noise of the crowd in the community.
At this time, no matter how much the experts' judgments or the official appeasement, it is impossible to suppress the panic of the crowd.
Crowds of people who felt that disaster was imminent began to spontaneously take to the streets, and every supermarket and convenience store was crowded with people who were frantically grabbing shopping materials.
In front of each ATM, all deposits were withdrawn, and daily necessities such as food and drinking water in supermarkets and convenience stores were sold out of stock in just one hour!
Many of them were a step slower to react, and the crowd that didn't buy something let out a cry of disappointment. In a supermarket outside the residential area, there was even a situation where a disappointed crowd smashed the store.
That kind of loud noise and noise, Lin Lili can be heard even if he stays in the house, and some gangsters and hooligans also take the opportunity to make trouble, and the whole Anseong suddenly fell into chaos.
But Lin Li knew that this chaos was only temporary, and the officials would definitely not let this state of affairs develop; The police response was also extremely swift.
It didn't take long for the streets and alleys of Anseong to be sirens. The gangsters who made trouble were all arrested, and the chaotic crowd, under the persuasion of the police, gradually calmed down and returned home one after another.
11 o'clock in the evening!
In the whole of Anseong, a curfew has been imposed, and there is not a single crowd in sight on the entire street, and the lights of police cars are flashing everywhere in the streets and alleys;
Lin Li finally closed the computer, lay on the bed, and slept beautifully.
The next morning, he was awakened by the noise of countless noises, and on this day, the sun still did not set, and although the crowd did not cause greater chaos under the forced intervention of the authorities, the panic and uneasiness in his heart could not be concealed.
There are people talking about it everywhere, and the message board posts on major websites are constantly refreshed at a rate of thousands per minute, and there are long queues at the entrances of major supermarkets and shopping malls again, and crazy crowds have begun to snap up everything that can be snapped up.
The bank was closed because when it opened the next day, the crowd of people who were withdrawing money had already lined up from the front of the bank to the end of the street three streets.
Supermarkets and shopping malls have also begun to run out of stock on a large scale, and even if more supplies are mobilized from warehouses, they will not be able to meet the needs of people who are crazy about buying.
By noon, some frightened crowds began to surround the official institutions, demanding an explanation. But officials are also at a loss as to where to give a plausible statement.
In order to prevent the situation from further escalating, the army also began to intervene, and from 1 o'clock the next day, groups of troops armed with guns appeared in the streets and alleys of Anseong.
In some places, there was also a faint sound of gunfire.
Hearing the gunshots, the chaos of the crowd finally calmed down, they were all honestly queuing up to shop, except for the crowd at work, there was no need, people rarely went out, they all stayed in the house.
The same is true for Lin Li.
When he got up early the next morning, he didn't choose to go out. Instead, he walked to the living room and began to exercise his body.
The end of the world is less than a day away, and he has to adjust his state as much as possible, as well as familiarize himself with his body and weapons.
Only in this way will he be more sure of surviving in the last days!
Lin Li first took out the elongated gold wire dagger, which was a killing weapon made of special steel, slightly longer than the dagger, suitable for short- and medium-range attacks, and could also be used as a throwing gun when necessary.
It's a very good fighting weapon.
Holding this military thorn, Lin Li repeated an action, that is, assassination! Between two points, the straight line is the shortest, and the assassination action is not as fierce as the chopping. But it's more labor-saving and powerful.
Burst! Burst! Burst!
The army stabbed on the sandbags hanging in the living room, pierced a dozen large holes, and the iron sand fell to the ground until he could no longer use it, and he did not stop.
At this time, Lin Li was basically familiar with the military thorn in his hand, and then he changed to a Swiss dagger and a military hand axe, and kept practicing.
This kind of practice lasted for a day, until he was able to achieve these three weapons to the extent that he could command them, and then Lin Li would stop.
The time also pointed to nine o'clock in the evening again.
On this day, the sun still did not set.
The whole world is in a great panic. The number of police officers and soldiers on the streets of Anseong has also begun to increase significantly, and they are trying to keep the city from getting out of control.
There has been a lot of noise on the Internet. Lin Li hesitated for a moment, and also posted a post on a famous website, describing the disaster that would happen tomorrow, the time, and simple survival tips, and then sent it out.
As for how many people will pay attention and believe, it is not up to him to influence. Anyway, what he should have done has already been done, and the rest can only be left to fate.
In the end, Lin Li turned off the computer and exercised for a day, this body that had not increased its vitality was already exhausted, and Lin Li soon fell into a deep sleep.
Day 3.
Lin Li on the bed woke up again, but this time not by the noise outside, but by the vibration of the old black and white Nokia on the head of the bed.
When I picked up my phone, I saw that it was a call from Yan Xiaoqing!
"Hey, Sister Yanzi, are you back, where are you now, I'll go over and pick you up right away!" Lin Li pressed the answer button, trying to keep his tone calm.
"Lin Li, I'm sorry, I haven't arrived yet, the train is late, it may not be until one or two o'clock at noon today......"
On the other end of the phone, Yan Xiaoqing's soft, slightly apologetic voice came.
"What, the train is late!" Lin Li shouted loudly, a buzz in his head, and there was a feeling of wanting to be dizzy. One o'clock in the afternoon, one o'clock in the afternoon!
If he remembered correctly, the time of the end times was one o'clock in the afternoon of this day! That's thirteen o'clock! It just happens to be one of the most unlucky numbers in the West!
Yes, thirteen o'clock is the exact time when the end of the world will break out, at that time, the whole world will collapse, and 70% of human beings will instantly turn into zombies.
Lin Li didn't dare to imagine what kind of terrifying scene it would be for Yan Xiaoqing to be trapped in a crowded train car or station when the disaster broke out, and there was almost no chance of survival.
Knowing this, I should have reminded Yan Xiaoqing more, even if I stayed in the field, it was much safer than in the carriage, station and other places!
But now it's too late to regret it, Lin Li can only grab his mobile phone and yell into the microphone: "No, Sister Yanzi, you can't continue to stay in the carriage, you immediately find a way to get off the car and find a place where no one is there to hide!" ”
"Xiao Linzi, what are you talking about, I can't hear it here...... The signal is not good...... Zizi, toot! Yan Xiaoqing's phone was suddenly interrupted at this time.
Syllable!
Lin Li's mobile phone also fell to the ground at this time, making a crisp sound. Only then did he suddenly remember that when the end times broke out, the sun in the sky would strongly interfere with the earth's communications.
At this time, not to mention long-distance calls, even the communication in the city will become extremely unstable! His face suddenly turned pale, and he fell to the bed in a gloomy manner.
"Sister Yanzi, I hurt you!"
"If I had warned you earlier, if I hadn't let you come, how would you have been stuck on the train!"
"In the last life, Sister Yanzi was in the field and escaped a catastrophe, but in this life, I killed her with my own hands!"
"What should I do now, just watch Sister Yanzi die like this!"
No!
I would never allow such a thing to happen!
Lin Li was like a mad beast, suddenly bounced up from the bed, his eyes were red, and his whole body exuded a strong murderous aura.
For him, Yan Xiaoqing is not only a friend from childhood to adulthood, but also the closest person who has helped him many times!
Since this matter started because of me, then I will solve it myself! It's just that......
No amount of bold words and ambitions can hide the worry and horror in Lin Li's eyes. After all, he is not the low-level ability he was three years later, and now he is just an ordinary person with a life strength of 0.6
At the beginning of the apocalypse, crowded areas such as train stations and large shopping malls are the most dangerous and terrifying places!
Hiding here, he can guarantee that he will survive, but when he walks out of this gate, with his current strength, there is no guarantee that he will survive.
"What should I do, station, to go, or not to go?"
Lin Li's mind was a little confused, and in his mind, for a while, it was Yan Xiaoqing's appearance, and for a while, it was the terrifying scene of countless terrifying zombies rushing towards him.
In the end, Lin Li gritted his teeth and decided to rush to the train station to have a look! If it is 13 o'clock and the train has not yet entered the station, you can only give up.
But if at that time, the train had already come, would he be able to watch Yan Xiaoqing die like that?
"No, I can't!"
After three years of survival in the last days, although Lin Li has become cold and fierce, the only thing that has not changed is his conscience!
