Didi –

A message from the mobile phone prompted an emergency summons.

Mi Ajiu turned off the valve of the gas stove, and the fritters in the pot could be fried with residual temperature, but the remaining dough could only temporarily close the space, so as not to be rancid, and then use the induction cooker connected to the photovoltaic power generation panel to continue frying... At this moment, a pot of gruel is boiling on the induction stove, and it is almost ready.

There is also a rice cooker where dry rice is simmered, and because it is also connected to photovoltaic power generation, it will not be affected.

Mi Ajiu put the fritters in the basin next to them to dry, rubbed her hands on the apron, and opened the chat group.

The news inside suddenly came like a flood bursting the embankment, all asking why the power and water were cut off, the water and gas were cut off, there was no food at home, and now there is no water, such a hot day, is it going to force people to death.

I have to say that it is not easy for them to understand the nature of the last days until now.

Mi Ajiu directly opened the community message: All volunteers are invited to come to the community hall within half an hour, and all volunteers are invited to come to the community hall within half an hour......

Such a notification is meant to be a mandatory task for all.

Mi Ajiu hurriedly changed into a jacket, put on a defensive suit with a few holes on the outside, took an electric shocker that had only been charged for less than two hours, and looked at the electricity, only 85 percent, which could be used more than 20 times.

Put on gloves, hats, masks, and still carry an oxford cloth backpack and set off.

The neighborhood is full of piles of garbage, and if you accidentally step on the excrement that leaks out of the plastic bag, no, no matter how careful you are, you can't avoid it.

Everywhere there were sounds of cursing and wailing.

Mi Ajiu's face was calm as usual, and his heart was also calm.

When I walked to the gate of the community, I met Chen Li and Tang Zhen, and their faces were full of anxiety and panic.

No electricity, no water, no gas, no electricity, it's okay to say, almost every household has photovoltaic power generation, cooking and turning on air conditioning is still possible.

The hardest thing now is that the water has been cut off, and there are elderly people at home, which makes them extremely anxious.

Fortunately, I had a few buckets of water ready at any time, but... How long can a few buckets of water last for a family of five?

Chen Li asked Mi Ajiu as she walked: "Ajiu, do you know why the community is in such a hurry to notify us to go?" ”

Mi Ajiu responded: "The notice came just after the water and power outage, maybe because of this." ”

"Well, it's possible. Hey, I don't know what to do now. On such a hot day, if there is no water, everyone really has no way to live..."

Mi Ajiu didn't talk.

"By the way, Ah Jiu, do you have water at home?"

"A little, not much..."

"We too, I don't know why, the water supply has been good, why did it suddenly ......"

On the way, I met volunteers from several other communities, all talking about the mission and the water problem.

When everyone arrived, there were already dozens of people waiting in the community hall.

Then assign tasks to everyone.

It is said that several waterworks in L City were attacked by mutated animals at the same time, and the people on duty who were originally stationed there were violently attacked, and the situation was not optimistic.

A team of ten people, an armored vehicle equipped with defensive steel mesh and bulletproof glass, everyone's task is to go around in a circle, attract as many mutated animals as possible to attack the water plant, and buy time for rescue and emergency repair equipment.

In a word, they are cannon fodder.

Everybody understands what it means.

Those who are willing to go stand aside, and those who are unwilling are not reluctant.

Mi Ajiu stood up without much hesitation, cannon fodder, at least he still has this qualification now.

With such a strong defense of the car, even if you can't beat it, you can still drive away, and no matter how bad it is, you can rely on the car to maneuver with mutant animals.

She has long wanted to go out to test the world, she can't stay in that increasingly rancid neighborhood forever, it is inevitable to go out, now there are such good conditions, go, definitely want to go.

Water supply is very important, whether it is the successful repair of equipment to restore the water supply, or the rescue of a few more people on duty with stronger force value, it is of great benefit to the community.

Besides, she needs to fight more to improve herself, and this is the best chance.

Two minutes later, less than a third of the people were willing to go, knowing they were cannon fodder for attracting firepower.

Chen Li and the others saw that Mi Ajiu was willing to go, they thought for a while, and stood up at the last time.

Because those who go this time can receive supplies in advance, in addition to twice the reward for ordinary tasks, each person will also have a box of mineral water.

The two of them were four remunerations and two crates of mineral water.

After the grouping, Mi Ajiu, Chen Li and Tang Zhen were divided into groups with seven volunteers from another community, and a staff member drove the car with a special positioning and navigation system.

Everyone hugged the long-handled electric shocker in their hands tightly, looking nervous, as if they were going to die.

The staff member is a middle-aged woman in her forties, named Sister Wang, she is also wearing a defensive suit, the only difference is that there is an extra gun, only twelve bullets.

One man said, "... Since this task is so difficult, why not give each of us a gun ...

Without waiting for Sister Wang to answer, the person next to her said, "If you match it, you have to be able to use it, what if you accidentally hurt yourself if those monsters didn't hit them?" ”

"What do you mean? We don't have any weapons, just this burning stick? It's just that let's send us to death, I said what's wrong with some weapons? ”

"It's nothing, people made it clear from the beginning, it's voluntary to go or not. Do you think that just by virtue of the strength of our people, we will become the main force in killing monsters? The effect of attracting the attention of monsters a little bit is already high on you. ”

"Do you want us to die?"

“……”

Sister Wang's voice was a little hoarse, "I'll tell you the truth, in fact, according to the original plan, all volunteers had to be trained in fighting and coercion, but then the people on duty had to defend against the supply of water and electricity systems, and they were attacked by sneak attacks, and there were too many casualties, and we didn't have more weapons and materials to replenish, so none of you can issue defensive suits and electric shocks to the maximum." ……”

There was silence in the carriage.

It turned out that in places they didn't see, there were still so many people who silently paid their lives to protect the stability of the city.

The fact that they were able to supply water and electricity normally for two or three weeks is their credit.

Only this time, the monsters have become stronger, and perhaps some mutants have retained their memories of the past, and then gathered the monsters to destroy the water and electricity supply system in one fell swoop.

As long as there is no water, the city itself will completely collapse.

When the monsters don't have to break through the walls painted with things that make them smell nasty, the people inside will run out on their own and ...... It's their hunting season.

In fact, there is no need for "then", just now, less than half a day after the water was stopped, some people in the community couldn't stand it and frantically crashed through the fence and rushed out.

The monster guarding the dark corner rushed up, tore it apart and ate it, and then rushed into the neighborhood through the gap... In an instant, the community went from a foul-smelling garbage dump to a human purgatory.
