Chapter 14: The End Comes

May 2, 2023, 7:32 a.m.

Lin Wanqiao was woken up by the sound of rain ticking outside the window.

When the curtains were opened, the sky was overcast and a light rain was dripping.

On the road outside the community downstairs, a group of early eight tribes are hiding under the bus stop sign to avoid the rain. While waiting for the bus, they carried bags in one hand and pancakes and steamed buns in the other and stuffed them into their mouths.

Everything is as usual, according to plan.

Pushing open the door, Liu Jian'an and the others had already gotten up and were cooking noodles in the kitchen.

Seeing Lin Wanqiao come out, Liu Jian'an walked over and asked Lin Wanqiao for confirmation with a serious face: "Is it today?" ”

Lin Wanqiao nodded.

It's still raining lightly, and the rain will suddenly increase in the afternoon, and then everyone will receive a typhoon warning from the Meteorological Bureau. Wait until about 2 o'clock in the morning, a super typhoon suddenly comes! But that's just the beginning.

After breakfast, Yang Yujun and the others began to work in the kitchen again.

called my best friend Ye Qian.

"Qiaoqiao, you don't know, I'm about to be scolded to death by my parents. After you left last time, I went to buy a bunch of things, and my parents saw that they kept scolding me for having too much money and being free. ”

"Did you tell them about the weather disaster?"

"Well, they've been asking me where I've heard the gossip. But you said it was a secret, and I didn't want to talk too much, so they thought I was fooled, and they told me to return it quickly. ”

"The weather will change at night, so don't go out today if you don't have to." Lin Wanqiao reminded.

"Ah, it still doesn't feel real, it's really going to be flooded. Then I'll have to drive the car to a higher place. ”

didn't want to listen to the other side's ramblings, Lin Wanqiao hung up the phone in a perfunctory manner.

"Grandpa, grandma, I'm out and I'll come back for dinner in the evening."

Lin Wanqiao put on her coat, picked up her mobile phone and walked out.

"It's dangerous outside, be careful, come back early." Liu Jian'an was worried.

At dinner last night, Lin Wanqiao had a complete showdown with the second elder, revealing his past with Shen Shaoyu and his own plans.

In fact, the second elder had met Shen Shaoyu before, after all, the two of them were going to get married, and Lin Wanqiao took Shen Shaoyu home when he was about to graduate.

The second elder had a good impression of Shen Shaoyu, but unfortunately Lin Wanqiao suddenly notified her of the marriage, and she refused to say more about the reason when she asked about it, and the old man didn't dare to ask.

In the past few days, when she was at home, Lin Wanqiao also intermittently talked about the situation in her previous life, as well as the vicious face of Ruan Feng's family. Including about half a year after the end of the world, Shen Shaoyu found himself in embarrassment, and saw that she wanted to take her away, but was injured by Ruan Feng's family, and finally left gloomily.

The second elder was so angry that he wanted to pick up the guy after hearing this, and he was going to go to Ruan Feng to settle accounts. also agreed with Lin Wanqiao's decision to take Shen Shaoyu to live at home.

can travel thousands of miles from City A to City B to find Lin Wanqiao in such a dangerous environment as the end times, and there is no doubt about his character and feelings for Lin Wanqiao. The two of them are old, if something happens, they may not be able to protect Lin Wanqiao, and it is good to have someone who can take care of each other.

At noon, Lin Wanqiao and Shen Shaoyu held umbrellas and found a spicy fragrant pot shop.

The shop is very lively.

As soon as the spicy tang was served, a thick spicy breath came to the nostrils, which immediately aroused the slander worms in the stomach. Even if you don't smell it and don't eat it, you can slander people. Lin Wanqiao sandwiched a piece of pork belly, accompanied by a mouthful of rice, and couldn't wait to put it in her mouth, the salty aroma of the meat was neutralized by the rice just right, oily but not greasy, spicy with a little numb, which made people have an endless aftertaste and left a fragrant taste on the lips and teeth.

Hulala, after eating a big bowl, I still didn't feel that it was enjoyable, so Lin Wanqiao added another meal. Such a heavy meal will be eaten less in the future.

Compact disc. Lin Wanqiao smothered half a bottle of iced Coke in one breath, and burped without any image.

This starving ghost appearance made Shen Shaoyu laugh.

"Wow, dear, look at the group, say there's a typhoon tonight!"

A girl whispered from the next table.

"No, where can I look?" The companion didn't seem to believe it.

"Just the class group, look, someone forwarded the information of the meteorological station, saying that the meteorological bureau has monitored the sudden formation of an unprecedented super typhoon in the Pacific Ocean, and the typhoon is still developing at a very rapid pace, and it is expected to land in Province Z tomorrow morning, and the maximum wind force in the center will reach more than 16!"

"WC! I've got it too. What the hell, there will be a typhoon in May?! ”

"That is to say, and this is too sudden, it's still a super typhoon, why is there no warning at all."

"Are we going back to school in the afternoon?"

"Let's go back first."

As she spoke, the two girls got up and picked up their schoolbags to settle the bill.

"Hahaha, wouldn't it be possible to take a holiday~"

"It's too, hahaha, but don't be too happy, there was a typhoon before, which time didn't you say you wanted to log in, but every time you turned around......"

Even though the two of them were gone, the wind still brought the laughter of girls like silver bells.

Lin Wanqiao came back to her senses and found that Shen Shaoyu was staring at the phone screen with a frown.

"Shaoyu, what are you looking at?"

"I'm looking at the Meteorological Bureau's Weibo ......"

Shen Shaoyu's heart turned waves, and the typhoon warning that was just updated at 13:58 on the official blog, this super typhoon is called "Morama". Before this official blog, there was no warning information about the typhoon.

Everything is exactly the same as what Lin Wanqiao said before.

Is this just a coincidence?

Shen Shaoyu looked at Lin Wanqiao with complicated eyes.

She was also scrolling through the news about the typhoon, and there was no surprise on her face.

When the two came out after eating, they found that the rain outside was much heavier than in the morning, and it crackled on the umbrella.

It was only past 2 o'clock in the afternoon, and the sky was as dark as 6 o'clock in the evening. The black clouds overhead rolled, and the sky was like an upside-down big iron pot, and the people who were pressed by the black pressure were breathless.

Shen Shaoyu held an umbrella and walked side by side with Lin Wanqiao on the way back.

Lin Wanqiao knew that Shen Shaoyu had wavered: "Shaoyu, pack your luggage and go to me first." ”

"I ......"

"Even if you don't believe me, it's about to be a typhoon, and it's not safe for you to stay in a hotel alone. I still have an empty room in my house. ”

"Is it convenient?"

Shen Shaoyu was a little hesitant, after all, he was his predecessor, so it was a bit embarrassing in the past.

"Don't worry, I've already told my grandparents, and they're glad you came over, and they told me to let you come over for dinner before leaving."

Pulling out the old man, Shen Shaoyu should be embarrassed to refuse again.

Sure enough, he nodded.

On the way back to the hotel, Lin Wanqiao saw that some residents with a sense of crisis were already rolling up their sleeves to move household appliances upstairs, and private cars were constantly driving out of the underground garage and parking on the ground one after another.

But there are also joking and ridiculous voices, saying that they made a fuss, there were not a few typhoons in which year, there were a few real landfalls, the thunder was heavy and the rain was small, and the last time there was a flood was more than 20 years ago.

It was only twenty minutes away from the hotel to the hotel, and Lin Wanqiao obviously felt that the wind was getting stronger and stronger, and the raindrops the size of beans were blown to the face by the wind, so the two of them accelerated their pace.

After arriving at the hotel, Shen Shaoyu neatly packed his luggage.

Here, Lin Wanqiao received a call from Liu Jian'an.

"Qiaoqiao, the wind is getting stronger, where are you coming back quickly!"

"Okay, I'm already on my way back."

"Be careful on the road."

After hanging up the phone, Shen Shaoyu had already packed up, and the two quickly went downstairs and retreated from the room with their suitcases.

Lin Wanqiao used software to call a taxi.

Looking at the mobile phone showing that the dispatch car was still 2 kilometers away, she felt anxious in her heart.

In this moment, the wind is stronger, and there is already the power of a strong typhoon. Obviously, the typhoon arrived at 2 a.m. the next day, but this time it started early.

Five minutes later, the taxi still hadn't appeared.

Lin Wanqiao constantly refreshed the vehicle positioning.

"Your order has been cancelled by the driver......"

Add another order, and no one will take the order for a long time.

"What's wrong?" Shen Shaoyu saw that Lin Wanqiao was so anxious that he couldn't stop tapping the phone screen, and couldn't help asking.

"No one took the order! What to do? It's 1.5 km back and so windy......"

Shen Shaoyu immediately took off his coat and put it on Lin Wanqiao.

"What are you going to do?"

"With such a big wind and rain, the windshield of the car can't see clearly at all, there will be no driver to take the order, and it's useless to continue to wait. Let's walk back while we can now. ”

Shen Shaoyu said as he put the umbrella into his backpack, carried it to his chest, pulled the suitcase with one hand, and firmly hugged Lin Wanqiao's shoulder with the other.

The warm touch made Lin Wanqiao's heart flutter.

"You grab my clothes and follow me!"

Lin Wanqiao gritted her teeth and stopped being hypocritical, and then followed Shen Shaoyu into the rain.

The wind and rain mingled together, like a dense bullet in the face, prickling and stinging. The clothes on his body were completely wet by the rain in an instant, and when the wind blew, he completely stuck to his body.

The branches of the green belt have a tendency to bend, rows of shared bicycles on the side of the road have been scraped to the ground, and cars have stopped on the road one after another with double flashes, and every step is difficult.

Shen Shaoyu tried his best to hide Lin Wanqiao's body behind him, hoping to block some of the wind and rain for him.

In the past more than 20 minutes, the two of them walked for almost an hour.

Liu Jian'an opened the door and there were two chickens in soup.

After taking a shower, sit on the sofa and drink hot ginger soup.

Lin Wanqiao sighed comfortably, it was still comfortable at home.

The second elder had already packed up the guest room early. It was said that it was to clean up, but it was just to make clean bedding for the small bed, and the room was still full of supplies, and a path that was barely passed by one person was cleared.

The door opened, and Shen Shaoyu's eyes and luggage fell to the ground at the same time.
