Chapter 13: Tranquility Before the End

April 29, 2023.

3 days before the end of the world.

Lin Wanqiao is downloading all kinds of professional knowledge books in front of the computer, as well as various TV series, novels, and even city maps. Almost all the sockets in the room are plugged into large power banks for charging.

These things can not only pass the boring time in the last days, but also have more professional knowledge such as medicine, emergency escape, construction, and planting, and may be able to help at critical times.

In the evening, Shen Shaoyu sent a text message.

Get off the plane at 7pm.

Lin Wanqiao rarely painted a light makeup, changed into a dress, and stood in front of the mirror for a while before going out. The curious eyes of the second elder frequently aimed at her.

Arrived at the airport half an hour early.

After two years of breaking up and five years after the end of the world, she hadn't seen Shen Shaoyu for seven years.

In the past, the snow was like flowers, and now the flowers are like snow.

Lin Wanqiao stood in the hall on the arrival floor, staring closely at the exit passage in front of her, reluctant to blink, for fear of missing it.

Time passed minute by minute, and I don't know how long it took, a familiar figure appeared not far away.

He just stood straight in front of her.

They stood like that, their eyes traversing the sea of people, their eyes locked tightly on each other's bodies.

He opened his mouth, but found that his voice was hoarse, and he could only smile softly at her......

In the restaurant box.

The two sat crampedly, like punished students.

The waiter who came in to order broke the awkward air.

Lin Wanqiao quickly ordered a few dishes according to Shen Shaoyu's preferences in his previous life.

Shen Shaoyu looked at the bright and beautiful Lin Wanqiao in front of him, and stopped talking several times.

After a long period of hesitation, I finally mustered up my courage.

"Jojo, what the hell happened to you?"

Shen Shaoyu listened to Lin Wanqiao's words that day, and he has been very nervous these days, so he quickly asked for leave as soon as he dealt with the company's affairs.

He was very afraid that Lin Wanqiao would tell him that he had some incurable disease.

Looking at the nervous sweating man, Lin Wanqiao's heart warmed.

"Ayu, no matter what I say, will you choose to believe me?"

"What?" Shen Shaoyu was puzzled.

"I mean, if what I'm trying to tell you is too bizarre, and I don't have any proof yet, will you believe me?"

Except for one space, Lin Wanqiao currently has no strong evidence to prove her eschatology.

The private rooms are private, but they don't take the risk of showing off the space.

I don't know if Shen Shaoyu will think that he is playing tricks on him after listening to her story, and just brush his sleeves away.

"Jojo, what do you want to say?"

Lin Wanqiao sorted out her thoughts, took a deep breath, and said slowly: "Actually, I said that you will never see me again because in three days, this world will usher in the biggest disaster in human history. ”

Looking at Shen Shaoyu's eyes, Lin Wanqiao said word by word: "Ayu, the end is coming soon." ”

Shen Shaoyu was stunned for a while.

"Three days later, on the evening, the Meteorological Bureau of City C will issue a warning of Typhoon "Morama" overnight, informing the public to prepare for emergency anti-typhoon. ”

"I don't know what other provinces are like, but as far as I know, this super typhoon with torrential rain will ravage the whole province of Z for a week, and then there will be endless floods and the whole city will be submerged. For up to half a year, not only will the flood not recede, but humans will also experience extreme heat, extreme cold, and eternal night......"

Shen Shaoyu was dumbfounded when he heard this, and looked out the window in disbelief.

Sunny.

It's only April, and the typhoon? And, the end times?

"Jojo, stop kidding."

Shen Shaoyu couldn't help but interrupt Lin Wanqiao, even if he was mentally prepared, Lin Wanqiao's words were too outrageous.

"Ayu, I know you don't believe it. If it weren't for my own experience, I wouldn't believe it. ”

Lin Wanqiao seems to have fallen into a long-term, painful memory.

"You know, during those long dark years, I was alone, and in order to survive, I even grabbed food from dogs and drank dirty water from the gutter. I've killed people... Killed, many people ......"

As he spoke, a line of tears slid down Lin Wanqiao's eyes and down her cheeks.

“…… I was buried in the rubble during the earthquake and felt my body get cold inch by inch. I woke up in the hospital room, but the time was April 4, 2023. ”

Shen Shaoyu was at a loss, raised his hand and gently wiped away the tears on Lin Wanqiao's face with a tissue.

He didn't know how to comfort Lin Wanqiao for a while, all the information was too absurd.

Both of them ate absent-mindedly at the meal.

Shen Shaoyu sent Lin Wanqiao back to the downstairs of the community.

When they separated, Lin Wanqiao said seriously: "Ayu, you can not believe it, but soon I will be able to prove myself." You give me three days. For these three days, you stay, don't leave, okay? ”

Shen Shaoyu agreed.

Lin Wanqiao's state is not at ease even if he leaves him. I can only find a better psychiatrist in a few days and take her to see her.

However, remembering Lin Wanqiao's painful expression when she said those words, it didn't seem to be a lie.

Shen Shaoyu watched Lin Wanqiao go upstairs, turned around and walked in the direction of the hotel.

In the next few days, Lin Wanqiao did not mention the last days to Shen Shaoyu. Shen Shaoyu also breathed a sigh of relief, he really didn't know how to persuade Lin Wanqiao, so he could only accompany her, hoping to make her happier, maybe it wouldn't be long before he got better.

During the day, the two date like a couple, climbing mountains, watching movies, visiting shopping malls, and at night they walk along the riverside promenade with a warm spring breeze.

Such a peaceful and happy day passed day by day, and Lin Wanqiao seized every opportunity to enjoy the tranquility before the end.

During this period, Lin Wanqiao went to Ye Qian's house once.

When Lin Wanqiao arrived at the door of Ye Qian's house, she confirmed that there was no one around and there was no surveillance, so she lightly took out the materials that had been prepared long ago from the space.

They are all some durable rice noodles, bacon and other foods and a small amount of medicine. and a deflated kayak.

A family of three can save some of these supplies for about three months.

Stacked the boxes at the elevator entrance, tried to catch a few breaths, and pretended to be out of breath for moving things.

Well, I found the feeling.

Lin Wanqiao knocked on Ye Qian's door.

Seeing Lin Wanqiao coming over with several large boxes of food, Ye Qian's eyes widened in disbelief.

She thought that it was crazy enough for her to stock up on so much food, but she didn't expect Lin Wanqiao to be even crazier, when did she have to eat.

Seeing the food at Ye Qian's house, sure enough, this Nizi didn't pay too much attention to her words. Although her best friend listened to her words and moved back to her parents' residence, the supplies were only symbolically bought with some food, and the amount of death was only a month's amount.

Lin Wanqiao hated that iron could not become steel, so she took Ye Qian's ear and said cruel words again, telling her to buy more supplies before the 1st.

Ye Qian kept asking where the news was, it was so terrible.

No matter how Ye Qian asked, Lin Wanqiao's bite to death was confidential.

Can you believe it if I'm honest with you?

Seeing that Lin Wanqiao was serious and not a joke, Ye Qian finally patted her chest and assured that she had listened and would go to buy supplies in the next few days.

Before leaving, Lin Wanqiao told her again not to let outsiders know that there were supplies at home.

The wind has gradually become a little stronger at night.

One night, when Lin Wanqiao and Shen Shaoyu were walking, a black shadow suddenly appeared in front of them, rushing straight to the door.

It was Shen Shaoyu who reacted quickly and kicked the black shadow away.

There was a squeaky cry in the darkness.

The street lights are dim, but it's enough to see the true face of the shadows.

It was a big gray-black rat, burrowing along the road into the green belt.

As soon as the two of them put down their hearts, there was a sudden sound of groaning in front of them.

I saw a series of black shadows under the street lamp in the distance, which quickly rushed out of the sewer to the ground, causing passers-by to scream.

Shen Shaoyu ridiculed that the world is declining, and even rats dare to swagger through the market.

Only Lin Wanqiao knew in her heart that these rats might have sensed something so abnormal, and a natural disaster was about to come.
