Chapter 11: Extreme Heat

The second day of the end times.

The temperature continued to rise, and the whole city was empty, everyone stayed in their houses, and the air conditioning was running at full capacity.

Occasionally, people who went out, even though they were fully armed and wearing sun-protective clothing and umbrellas, were still sunburned and forced to return to the unit building after only a few minutes of going out.

More and more people are suffering from heat stroke, and hospitals are overcrowded.

The government has urgently introduced measures to suspend all factories and enterprises except for essential units, and to supply all electricity to civilian use.

But even so, there is still public resentment boiling on the Internet. Not only is it hot during the day, but the temperature at night has not dropped much, but it has dropped from more than 50 degrees to 40 degrees, and everyone thinks that it is a pot of environmental damage.

Jiang Ran didn't listen to anything outside the window, except for occasionally looking at the news in the owner group, he spent the rest of his time training and cultivating.

Day 3.

After finishing the training, Jiang Ran sat in the living room panting to rest, and a series of beeping sounds suddenly sounded from the owner group.

She picked up her phone and looked at it.

The temperature broke through the 60 mark and reached 61 degrees Celsius.

Seeing the temperature displayed on the picture, Jiang Ran was surprised, how could it break through 60 degrees Celsius so quickly.

She remembered that in her previous life, she was in her hometown, and she maintained more than 50 degrees for a period of time, and only broke through the 60 mark after ten days.

Is it because of the different geographical locations that the temperature gap is so big?

If this is the case, will the mutant creatures appear earlier, and what will the mutated creatures in the city be?

At this time, there is new news in the owner group one after another.

"Does anyone in the group fix the air conditioner? My air conditioner is not cooling, so I can't stay up like this. ”

The group was quiet for a while, and the owner continued to send messages.

"Is anyone there? I can pay, five hundred and one thousand. ”

But still no one responded, and the owner swiped the screen in the group one after another, and someone couldn't stand it and replied to a message.

"Dude, it's normal not to refrigerate now, the outside temperature is 60 degrees, and the refrigeration effect of air conditioning is not obvious. Even if something really goes wrong, it's so hot outside, and people won't be able to bask in the sun for a few minutes, and it's impossible for someone to risk their lives to fix it for you. ”

"Yes, money is important, let's think of other ways."

"The underground garage is pretty cool, I think I can go down."

This news resonated with the owners, and the news began to refresh quickly.

"Hehe, our house came down early, the temperature is high during the day, the basement is not only cool, but also saves electricity bills."

"The garage should be hot too, right?"

"No matter how hot it is, it's better than in the house, in fact, it's not bad in the hallway, especially in the stairwell where the sun can't get it."

", you're not authentic, you don't even say a word in such a good place."

"It's not cool when there are too many people."

Seeing the news in the group, many people began to retreat to the basement, Jiang Ran put away his mobile phone and went into the kitchen to prepare dinner.

I don't know if it's because of the improvement of physical fitness, her heat resistance is much stronger, everyone thinks it's unbearable heat, but she thinks it's okay.

Today's dinner she prepared for herself was a stewed beef brisket with potatoes, a plate of stir-fried seasonal vegetables, and a seaweed egg drop soup.

Bringing the food to the table, Jiang Ran was about to eat, when the room suddenly went dark.

There was a power outage.

The community resounded with a loud national scolding, and the owners couldn't stop their pent-up temper during this time.

Jiang Ran walked to the living room in the dark, switched the power supply of the battery panel, and the house lit up again, and there were also lights in one or two rooms in the opposite unit building.

Meal.

After checking the security door, Jiang Ran locked the door and inserted the horizontal bolt behind the door.

Jiang Ran lacked a sense of security, living alone in a strange city, she was still a girl, and after renting a house, she changed the door locks at home to explosion-proof levels, unless it was a chainsaw, it was impossible to break the door by manpower alone.

After closing the door and closing the curtains in the house, Jiang Ran returned to the bedroom, sat cross-legged on the bed and began to cultivate.

She is now cultivating in the first half of the night, and sleeping in the second half of the night to regain her spirit.

Without the bustling neon lights, the city is pitch black at night, as if returning to the era when darkness controlled everything and everything survived.

There was no air conditioning to bring cold air, and the indoor temperature quickly went up, so the owners had to take their families to the cooler stairwells or underground garages, where the elevator had backup power and was still running.

"Husband, take all the dry food with you, the food will spoil at such a high temperature, don't open the refrigerator, that can keep warm and last for a while."

"yes, okay."

In the cozy room, every word of the woman can be responded to by the man, and he acts quickly.

After a while, the woman came out of the house sweating profusely, and the man was carrying a bulging backpack, but the weight was easy for him.

The woman also came out of the bedroom with a small bag on her back, and then the two left the house and took the elevator to the underground garage.

Many people upstairs had to go down, and it took several minutes for two people to enter the elevator, and when they passed by the 8th floor, they saw that only three families came out to take the elevator.

An aunt was curious: "Eh, I remember that I was an online writer in Room 3 on the 8th floor, why didn't anyone come out?" ”

"Two days ago, I saw that she seemed to have asked someone to install solar panels, and there should be electricity in the house."

"People have money, so we don't need to worry about it."

"She used to go out for a walk every night, but I don't seem to see her for a few days, and I think she sometimes comes back late."

A few people chatted, and after a while, the elevator stopped again, and after a person came up, the elevator began to tick, and the person hurriedly retreated again, waiting for the next elevator.

Going down to the first floor, the elevator door opened, and a cool breeze blew in their faces, and everyone couldn't help but sigh.

"It's still cool down there!"

Seeing the sound of talking outside the corridor, someone hurriedly reminded: "Let's go, hurry over and take a good position." ”

Everyone hurriedly walked out, and there were indeed many people in the basement, and many families also moved mats and blankets down, and there were brooms, mosquito coils, and flower water next to them.

The man took the woman and found a place next to a black car.

"Daughter-in-law, that's it, our car is next to us, if you feel cold, you can go to sleep in the car."

"Hmm."

The woman nodded, and the two put their backpacks in the car, then went back upstairs to get a mat and get down.

In the spacious garage, everyone felt the coolness that had not been seen for a long time, everyone gathered together to chat, and some people took short videos of the situation in the garage and posted them on the Internet.

chatting and chatting, we talked about the hot weather this time.

"Did you watch the news? The whole world is hot, foreign countries are already in chaos, many people riot, smash shops, and kill people and set fires. ”

"It's not just the big beauty, it's the whole West."

"It's scary."

"If this high temperature continues, we probably won't be far away."

Everyone sighed in unison.

Although the situation is getting more and more serious, everyone still believes in the government and the country, and does not think about the end of the world, but just vents the irritability in their hearts out of boredom.
