It wasn't until about 4 o'clock in the afternoon that two soldiers wearing masks delivered half a bucket of rice porridge with a clear bottom. There was also a red plastic bucket stuffed with stainless steel dishes and chopsticks, and the fat man took out the bowl and spoon and was about to serve porridge for himself, but he found a black unidentified attachment at the bottom of the bowl, and then threw it back and took out his own tableware and filled the bowl.

"What the is this porridge? It's clearly boiling rice water! The fat man spat into the corner.

"No," Xie Xuan frowned, took the fat man's bowl and tasted it, and then spit it out, "Fat brother, this is not rice water, it's the taste of porridge!" ”

When everyone heard this, they immediately started talking, and then the partition wall was knocked a few times, and a man's voice came, "Next door, can you be quieter?" ”

"What do we say our words have to do with you?" Xie Xuan replied angrily.

"We have a child here who has just fallen asleep, please be quiet." Xie Xuan's words were answered by a woman's voice.

Xie Xuan was just about to open his mouth, but Qiao Hongxia raised her hand to interrupt him, and said to the wall: "I'm sorry, let's be quiet." ”

The woman next door said, "Thank you." The rooms on either side fell silent.

Qin Yue scooped half a bowl of porridge at this time, leaned in front of his nose and sniffed it, "It's okay to drink." After speaking, he drank all the porridge in the bowl in one go.

Su Xue also took half a bowl and tasted it, "It's not rancid yet, but it doesn't taste very good." ”

Then Qiao Hongxia also served half a bowl for herself, and the others also stepped forward to serve it when they saw this.

The time soon came to night, there was no lighting equipment in the isolation room, and everyone had to lie on their beds without saying a word, and the original excited mood was also a little low at this time.

"Brother Yue, did you say that we will live in a tent or the same tin house as this one after we go in?" Xie Xuan slept on the top bunk, looking at the dark roof with his eyes open.

Qin Yue was lying on the other upper bunk bed above Xie Xuan's head, he was thinking about Lao K at the moment, and after being interrupted by Xie Xuan, he thought about it, "Maybe it's all there." ”

The fat man then continued: "I don't know if you have noticed, this Longping District seems to have existed for a long time, and the catastrophe has only occurred for more than 20 days, and such a large-scale project cannot be completed so quickly." ”

Qiao Bing, who was lying on the lower bunk, said: "I heard my cousin say that Longping District was not called this name before, it seems to be called Pingshan Town......"

Qiao Hongxia continued: "When Xiaoice said this, I remembered, more than thirty years ago, the exploration team discovered coal mines here, and later established a mining bureau, in those years, the coal business was booming, coal mines opened one after another, and with the influx of foreign population, it slowly developed into a small-scale city,"

Qiao Hongxia sighed when she said this, "Later, when coal resources were exhausted, these profit-seeking enterprises began to withdraw one after another, leaving only some old people who grew up here who were unwilling to leave, starting from ten years ago, with the death of these old people one after another, this place has also become an empty city in the real sense......

Yao Aiguo also sighed in the dark, "Alas...... If humanity continues like this, it will only end up digging up its own grave......"

When everyone heard this, they suddenly fell silent, as if they were mourning for Mother Earth, and at the same time they were worried about the days to come, the T virus was just the beginning, and no one could predict what would happen in the future......

The night passed quickly, and in the morning another wave of survivors came in, and when he passed through the small window, He Shan saw two familiar figures, and before he could speak, he had already walked over.

"Shanzi, what's wrong?" Seeing this, Qin Yue asked He Shan.

"The person who passed by just now seems to be Xiao Qi ......," He Shan said in a daze.

"Xiao Qi? Just your little hair? The fat man asked him with a frown.

He Shan nodded.

"Isn't that chick there?" Xie Xuan suddenly rolled up from the bed.

"I don't see it clearly, but there's a woman." He Shan shook his head and gradually came back to his senses.

"What woman?" The fat man was in a coma at the time, and he didn't know anything about Xiao Qi.

"It's the woman who was called Lulu by Zhang Dajun and called Mengmeng by Jin San." Xie Xuan licked his lips and explained.

"Damn, little brother and sister-in-law, it's interesting." When the fat man heard this, he immediately became interested.

"Maybe I'm reading it wrong......" He Shan frowned.

"Don't worry about the mistake first, tell me about your little hair and your sister-in-law." The fat man creaked and climbed down from the top bunk.

He Shan had no choice but to tell the fat man what had happened, and the fat man seemed a little unsatisfied after listening to it, licked his teeth and pestered He Shan to ask about the story of Jin San and this woman, He Shan had to be patient and told him again.

Qin Yue looked at his watch at this time, there were still nearly ten hours before the end of the quarantine, thinking of taking advantage of this time to let Su Xue count the remaining supplies, and as soon as he opened the baggage, the old man Qiao on the bed suddenly vomited in pain.

"Dad!" Qiao Hongxia, who was talking to Yao Aiguo, rushed to the bed.

"Not good! It's a cerebral hemorrhage! Su Xue was shocked when she saw this, Qin Yue hurriedly stepped forward to help her turn Old Man Qiao's body sideways, "What now?" ”

"Must have surgery right away!" Su Xue said nervously.

Qin Yue got up and knocked on the door, and soon a soldier with a mask came over, "What's the matter?" ”

Qin Yue hurriedly told him about Old Man Qiao's situation, and the soldier glanced inside, "I'll call someone!" ”

In less than a minute, several medical personnel wearing protective suits rushed over with stretchers, and before the stretcher could be put down, Old Man Qiao did not react.

"Dad! What happened to you? Dad, wake up! Qiao Hongxia shook the old man's hand vigorously.

"Doctor, save my grandfather!" Chen Yao also cried beside her.

One of the white coats hurriedly unfolded the blood pressure monitor and wrapped it around Master Qiao, and after squeezing it continuously, he looked at the falling values on the top and shook his head, "The person has gone." ”

"Nope! Doctor, listen, my dad still has a heartbeat! Qiao Hongxia grabbed the doctor's hand.

"The heartbeat of brain-dead patients will continue for a while." The doctor pulled out his hand and patted Qiao Hongxia, "Let's mourn." ”

"You lied to me!" Qiao Hongxia turned her head with red eyes and grabbed Su Xue's arm, "Xiaoxue, you quickly let him have surgery!" ”

"Aunt Qiao, he didn't lie to you, grandpa is really gone......" Su Xue grabbed Qiao Hongxia's hand tightly.

"Gone...... It's all gone......" Qiao Hongxia suddenly calmed down.

"Mom, you still have me, Sister Qiao Bing, and all of us." Chen Yao held back her tears and didn't let herself cry.

"Auntie, Yaoyao is right, grandpa won't suffer this living crime if he leaves." Qiao Bing squatted down in front of Qiao Hongxia with red eyes.

The doctor quickly issued a death certificate, turned around and handed it to the person next to him, "Go and notify the people in the cremation team and tell them that they have a cerebral hemorrhage and not a viral infection." ”
