Since the beginning of June, the situation in the beautiful country has become more and more unstable.

The West Coast, in particular, is home to a growing number of illegal immigrants and a large number of people from the East Coast.

Compared with the West Coast's inclusiveness, openness, and diversification, the East Coast has become more and more conservative in the past two years.

This has led to many illegal immigrants, nicos and gang members leaving the West Coast.

Only on the West Coast do they have room to live.

June 14th, beautiful country time.

Murphy's law is really smart, and what Gao Yuemei feared most finally happened.

Since yesterday, with strong winds of eight or nine magnitudes, sandstorms have blown all over the west coast.

To add insult to injury, illegal immigrants have set the forest on fire and set fires everywhere in the city, so much so that the community can smell the choking smell of smoke.

Currently, the entire West Coast is almost on the verge of spiraling out of control.

……

Early in the morning, after breakfast, Gao Yuemei's family gathered in the living room, paying attention to the situation outside through the radio.

The network signal was cut off a few days ago, and it was too late to apply for the Starlink package, and only the radio station was still running normally.

"The Fallen Cedar Rock is lost." Zhang Ming suddenly said that the whole family knew English.

Gao Yuemei said anxiously: "Will it spread to our side?" ”

At this time, Zhang Ming no longer had the confidence he had before.

"It's not clear yet, but the community is ready to evacuate at any time, and as soon as the situation gets out of control, we will immediately drive to the pier, where there will be a passenger ship to pick up."

"Alas, I said I was going back to China a long time ago, but you just didn't listen, what can I do now?" Gao Yuemei was like an ant on a hot pot, and her whole person was restless.

Lao Zhang comforted: "Wait and see, it may not spread to our side, no matter how bad it is, can't you still take refuge at sea!" ”

"No, it's too passive, Zhang Ming, can we go to the dock in advance? I want to go now. Gao Yuemei asked.

"Nope." Zhang Ming shook his head, "We are dozens of kilometers away from the dock here, we will never be able to get through it by ourselves, there must be robberies on the road, only people from our community can go together to ensure safety." ”

"What about the consulate? Is it okay to go to the consulate? ”

"No, the consulate is in the city, it's more dangerous to go there, and the consulate may be closed early, so it's useless to go." Zhang Ming replied.

Gao Yuemei broke out completely: "This doesn't work, that doesn't work, then you can only wait for death?" ”

"Mom, it's okay to be quiet, you scared Zhang Tao like this." Zhang Fan's daughter-in-law hugged the child and couldn't help complaining.

Gao Yuemei held back her anger, hugged her grandson directly from her daughter-in-law's arms, and then went to the bedroom without looking back, she would really go crazy if she stayed any longer.

Zhang Fan sighed, to be honest, he really regrets it now, his mother may be right, he hurt his family.

"Uncle, do you have a gun here?"

Zhang Ming glanced at his nephew in surprise, nodded and said, "Yes, but there is only a pistol." ”

"I want to learn how to shoot."

"Husband, ...... you," Zhang Fan's daughter-in-law said worriedly.

"It's okay, I just want to prepare a little more, I shouldn't need it." Zhang Fan reassured.

Lao Zhang stood up and said: "Add me, I was a militia when I was young, and I haven't touched a gun for more than 30 years." ”

Zhang Ming nodded, and took the father and son to the basement, and after a while, there was a dull "bang" sound inside.

Fortunately, I said hello to the surrounding neighbors in advance, otherwise it would definitely cause chaos.

At noon, Lao Zhang and his son finally mastered the skills of shooting, and the two of them each fired dozens of bullets, and they felt a little more confident.

"It's time to eat." Gao Yuemei ran over and shouted.

The lunch menu was simple, the staple food was beans, the flour supply was out last month, and with a few vegetable leaves and a box of canned meat, it was quite hearty.

Zhang Ming was listening to the radio while eating, and suddenly his movements stopped, his face suddenly turned pale, and his hands trembled slightly.

"Uncle, what's wrong?" Zhang Fan said with concern.

"Zhang Ming, speak quickly!" Gao Yuemei was as anxious as she was.

Maybe it was grandma's voice that was too loud, and Xiao Zhang Tao instantly burst into tears, which made everyone feel a little more irritable.

Lao Zhang instructed his daughter-in-law: "Take the child back to the bedroom to eat, and bring the canned meat." ”

After Zhang Fan's daughter-in-law left, Zhang Ming looked decadent and hesitated for a moment before saying:

"I can't go to the docks, it's been occupied."

"What about the ship?" Gao Yuemei asked.

"Even the boat and dock were set on fire, and everything was over."

Gao Yuemei's whole person was like being struck by lightning, and she was stunned in an instant, and the others were not much better, one by one.

In the end, it was Zhang Ming who reacted first, "Don't worry, I'll go to the community committee to see the situation, there are thousands of people in our community, there must be a way." ”

"Uncle, I'll go with you." Zhang Fan also became active.

"Okay, let's go and get back quickly."

It wasn't until five o'clock in the afternoon that Zhang Ming's uncle and nephew came back, and both of them had heavy faces.

"How's it going?" Gao Yuemei hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

Zhang Fan hurriedly replied: "Mom, the situation is not good, now the entire West Coast is in chaos, this riot will definitely not end in a short time." ”

"How's that okay?"

"There are now different opinions in the community, and some people think that they should stay and defend themselves; There are also people who think that they should go to the Pelican Mountain community, which is the largest community in our area, and the terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Zhang Ming introduced.

"The end result?" Gao Yuemei asked.

"We haven't made a decision yet, we plan to look at the situation, although the Pelican Mountain community agreed to accept us, but just gave up their homes, many people disagreed."

Gao Yuemei said nervously: "Then what should we do now?" ”

"Mom, I discussed with my uncle, our family should be ready for a full evacuation, and now we have to start preparing our luggage, so as not to be too late." Zhang Fan reminded.

"I've already packed my luggage." Gao Yuemei sighed, and she waited to leave.

Zhang Ming said: "In addition to luggage, there are cans, take away as much as you can, and bury those that you can't take away in the yard, and you have to come back later!" ”

"Uncle, I'll help you." Zhang Fan said.

"Okay, I'll go to the basement and get tools, preferably dig a deeper hole."

After dinner, Lao Zhang's father and son, Zhang Ming, and the three of them began to act, and after two days and two nights of busy work, they finally dug a big pit more than two meters deep.

Fortunately, the soil here is soft, otherwise it would not have been possible to dig so deep.

A blanket was laid out haphazardly in the pit, followed by boxes and boxes of canned food, so stuffed that there were almost no fits.

After burying the cans, before the whole family had time to rest, the riot suddenly spread to the doorstep.

After a day of resistance, the community issued an emergency evacuation order.

PS: Ask for recommended tickets and monthly passes!
