Chapter 53: The Phoenix Strikes

The rain has been going on for two days in a row, and the outside world has become gloomy and uneasy because of the continuous rainstorm. After Xie Shu got up, as soon as he opened his mobile phone, he found Mo Yangyang's message bombardment and a large number of mobile phone software message pushes. The official meteorological observatory released the news of the imminent arrival of Typhoon "Phoenix":

[Dear citizens,

Xie Shu opened some software tweets describing typhoons, and flipped through the comments below, people didn't seem to be overly worried about this, too, the world here should have had typhoons in previous years, it was nothing more than working and studying from home for a period of time. Judging from the various comment areas, schools and companies have successively issued notices on home learning and office. As the news of working from home spread, employees in the company gathered up their desks and prepared to go home to work, while schools were arranging arrangements for learning from home. As we all know, once a typhoon hits and lasts for a long time, the road surface may be affected, and it will be very difficult to go to work and school.

[Xuanyuan Max: Why is the official news so slow this time, and it will be released today tomorrow? 】

[Moon Bend: Typhoon hurry up, the child's school has notified him of online classes at home, and he can't be controlled at home. 】

[Ami: It's so good, you don't have to catch the subway to work from home, it's more comfortable to touch the fish hahahaha~]

……

Exiting the tweet, Xie Shu turned on Mo Yangyang's group message bombardment, which was nothing more than praising Xie Shu's prescient sense of crisis, and then discussed with Liang Xiaozhen that he would hurry up and go out to buy some material reserves today. Looking at the number they counted, Xie Shu replied a few words.

[Buy more food, if there is a typhoon, the situation may be worse, be prepared.] 】

[Shu Shu is going with you today? If you're still busy, just be our commander in the back, and I'll drive with Majin to buy it. After Mo Yangyang saw Xie Shu's reply, he knew that she was up, so he asked.

Lying on the bed, Xie Shu thought about it and decided to continue cooking at home, so she discussed with the two that she didn't have a car, and it was inconvenient to go out, so she didn't go out, and did things such as calculating supplies at home, and would cook and wait for them to come back.

After discussing it, Xie Shu got up to wash, and then went to the 26th floor to cook as usual.

……

At noon, Xie Shu went to the 24th floor with three lunch boxes, and after Mo Yangyang opened the door, all kinds of things in the living room made Xie Shu feel that the two of them really had extraordinary action, and they had added so many things in just one morning. The three of them sat on the couch, chatting about the weather while eating. Mo Yangyang is fine, and he can still free his hand to swipe his phone twice.

"No, you see." Mo Yangyang suddenly spoke up and showed his mobile phone in front of Xie Shu and Liang Xiaozhen. Officials continued to push forward the news of Typhoon "Phoenix", but it was not good news.

[Dear citizens,

Xie Shu has known about the situation of the typhoon for a long time, although she has been a little confused since this morning, the official in the book should not have announced the news of the typhoon so early, but I think that the official is prepared to remind her that it is also beneficial to her survival, maybe her arrival caused some butterfly effect, so she did not dig deeper. Even though he expected it, Xie Shu still showed a surprised expression, his eyes widened and his pupils shrank. The three of them glanced at each other, and Liang Xiaozhen was the first to speak, "The official news is here, I think according to our previous plan, the situation may be more serious." ”

"My friend told me that he didn't mention the typhoon at the time, he just said that the accumulated torrential rain was likely to cause flooding, but now the official prediction is that the typhoon is coming, and it seems that the situation is even worse, maybe we have to do more preparations." Xie Shu added. "I can be less secretive when I shop in the afternoon, and since the official has said it, many people should start buying."

The new official news did spark a wave of panic, as the news of the typhoon would have triggered disgust and fear, but this time the news indicated that the disaster was beyond imagination. The three of them looked out the window at this time, and the wind and rain had begun to become more and more violent, and the trees were swaying in the wind, as if they might fall at any moment. The scene outside the window is getting more and more terrifying, and people's mood is getting more and more nervous.

"It seems that this 'Phoenix' is coming in advance, and we have to hurry up in the afternoon." Mo Yangyang said. The two of them finished eating quickly, and continued to go out to stock up without delay.

……

After hearing the official news, people began to stock up and formed long queues in front of supermarkets, hoping to grab some necessary items. Everyone is silently praying that this typhoon will pass as soon as possible and not bring too much damage and damage. There are small supermarkets where the shelves are empty, and there are already people rushing to fill shopping carts with goods, desperately snapping up daily necessities and food.

Outside, the rain had become more intense, and the scene outside the window had become more and more terrifying. The wind howled, sweeping up trees and roadside garbage, and from time to time windows rattled from the wind and rain. People are busy, oppressed by the torrential rain and winds, worried that they don't have enough supplies.
