Return the favor
"What to do? Do you want her to get her in the door? Tao Ying couldn't make a decision at once, so she could only look at Shen Qing for help.
Shen Qing shook his head.
"No, if we let the people around us know that we have food here, then we will be targeted by the public, and the danger will be greatly increased."
The people outside the door did not get a response, and their strength was a little heavier.
"Old Tao! We've been friends for so many years, you can't do this to me! You open the door, let's catch up. ”
Shen Zhi'an frowned and said, "It's endless...... I'm going to get rid of her! ”
He was about to get up when another tall figure stood up before him.
"I owe you a favor, so let me come forward."
Fang Xiao asked a few people to hide in the bedroom and opened the door.
"Who are you?" Zhang Fang didn't expect that the person who opened the door would be a stranger.
"You don't know me, what are you knocking on my door for? Pick a quarrel? Fang Xiao's voice was mixed with impatience.
His height is a big cut over Zhang Fang, and his own cold aura makes people feel suffocated.
"This is your home? Impossible, right...... This is obviously ......" Zhang Fang muttered in a low voice, poking her head into the room quietly.
The living room was empty, there were no acquaintances, and the faint smell of food remained in the air.
Fang Xiao blocked her gaze dissatisfiedly, "Have you seen enough?" Now this house is for me to live in, there is no one you are looking for. ”
Zhang Fang glanced at him and changed the subject, "Young man, do you still have food at home?" Can you lend me a little first? ”
"I don't borrow it." Fang Xiao said indifferently.
"I'm not taking it for nothing! It's just that my grandson has a big appetite, and this week's relief food has been eaten, and when the relief food is sent next week, I will pay you back! Don't worry, I've never taken advantage of others! She swore by it.
"I don't borrow it." With that, Fang Xiao slammed the door shut.
Instantly, there was another sound of slamming the door.
"We're all neighbors, why are you so unloving?"
"I don't take it for nothing, you should take it as an emergency! Open the door! Open the door. ”
Fang Xiao ran out of patience.
He opened the door with a black face and pointed the gun at Zhang Fang's head.
The sudden move frightened Zhang Fang to scream.
"Get out! If you bother me again, I'll reunite your family underground! He threatened.
Zhang Fang was so frightened that her legs went limp, and she stumbled downstairs.
After the matter was dealt with, the Shen family came out of the bedroom.
Fang Xiao saw Shen Qing staring at the gun in her hand and immediately put it away.
"Now that the favor has been repaid, then I'll go first."
Seeing that he was leaving, Shen Qing immediately got up.
"Wait a minute, can you exchange your contact information?"
Fang Xiao's medical skills are extremely good, maybe he will need his help in the future.
Since the two of them have crossed paths so early in this life, they naturally can't miss this good opportunity.
Fang Xiao was stunned, and then left a string of numbers.
"Here's my number, at least you can contact me when there's a signal."
Shen Qing wrote his number on a slip of paper and stuffed it into his hand, "If there is anything you need me to help with, just contact me." ”
Fang Xiao smiled, "Thank you, but I don't want to owe others any more favors." ”
With that, he opened the door and disappeared at the end of the stairs.
Shen Zhian was lying on the door frame, his expression was very rich.
"Sister, what's the situation? Love at first sight? ”
Shen Qing gave him a blank look.
"Put away your love brain."
She handed out the passes given by Fang Xiao to everyone's hands.
"With a pass, you can find a job in S City, although there is no salary, but at least you can ensure food and clothing."
"Of course, we still have enough supplies now, and we don't have to take the risk of going out for the time being. It's just that the patrolmen will check for wanderers from time to time, and we have to collect these passes. ”
S City is much safer inside.
There is water, electricity and internet.
I spent three months safely.
In November, the heat has finally dropped.
The highest temperature during the day drops to 35 degrees, and you can still feel a hint of coolness at night.
Through the window, Shen Qing saw that there were more people on the street outside.
Except for everyone's yellow face and thin muscles, it seems to be no different from before the end.
During these three months, the organization developed a human nutrition.
It converts all the elements that the body needs into a paste, so that people can last a day without eating, just by taking a supplement the length of their index finger.
This human nutrient is also the cheapest subsistence material on the market today.
"It looks like it's going to rain." I don't know when, Zhao Xi was already standing beside Shen Qing.
Shen Qing looked at the dark clouds in the distance and frowned.
"The temperature has been high for several months, not a drop of rain has fallen, and the reservoir has dried up. Presumably the drinking water that the city provides now is stored in the ground. If we don't go any further, I'm afraid there won't be enough backup water. ”
She was relieved, "When this rain falls, will the world be better?" ”
Shen Qing did not speak.
Only she knew that the rain had brought not hope, but greater despair and pain.
Because the sky is about to fall not normal rain, but acid rain.
The constant rain of acid rain will corrode the city's buildings.
Plants that have a chance to regenerate are completely deprived of the land on which they live.
Drinkable groundwater is shrinking rapidly, and it is feared that more than half of the population will die on the current basis.
At this time, Tao Ying and Shen Jie also went home from work.
The two couldn't stay idle at home, and in order not to arouse the suspicion of the patrolmen, they specially looked for jobs near their homes.
Now there is no shortage of jobs, and the two of them also got a job by virtue of their skills in doing hydropower when they were young.
"I'm afraid there will be another big move in S City recently."
Shen Jie took off his warm vest to protect against the cold and said, "Today, our unit came to find manpower, saying that there is a big project and manpower is urgently needed. The unit is urgently recruiting, and now the threshold is going to be trampled on. ”
Shen Qing calculated the time, and it was indeed time to build a safe base.
In her previous life, she hadn't thought about it in detail, but now it seems that the organization should have known about acid rain for a long time, so she started to prepare.
