Another night passed.
The apocalypse has entered the 46th day, and the weather is still bad. The snow is as high as two and a half stories. Because it is a low temperature of more than 40 degrees below zero, the snow shows no sign of melting, but has become solid and hard.
However, there are still a large number of humans surviving.
Although the problem of food shortage is getting more and more serious, for now, human beings are still surviving tenaciously.
In the early morning, Xiao Ran stood at the window, looking at the rapidly receding fog, and thinking about today's arrangements.
Going out to find a gas station?
Go ahead.
Why else would you stay at home?
Mold and rust will not grow.
He talked to the girls, and they all asked to go with him.
They also want to make a contribution.
Xiao Ran thought for a while, okay, let's all go, so that no one comes to steal the house.
——This possibility is unlikely, because Xiao Ran just wiped out the Chang family.
Who is not afraid of this power?
Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case.
If you leave an empty house now, even if someone does try their best to get in, what can be done?
food? water?
Xiao Ran kept them in a different space, and would only take them out for the girls to use when he went out.
After breakfast, everyone got in the car and set off.
Oh, get on the boat, get on the boat.
The hovercraft started up and soon roared away.
…
Here, there is a murmur.
"The family left."
"Where have the Chang family gone?"
"Were they all killed in the house?"
"It's so weird. The Chang family obviously had a lot of guns, how could they be killed overnight?"
"You've got to the point. One night, while the person is asleep, and with professional skills, it should be easy to succeed."
"Fortunately, we have Mr. Xia in charge. This family should be afraid of dying together."
On the intercom, you say something to me.
However, at this time, someone poured cold water on it: "I would like to advise everyone not to have such an optimistic attitude!"
It was Zhuang Jiachen.
"Why?" Many people asked immediately.
If we want to say who has the highest prestige in the entire community, it must be Xia Lingcheng. If we want to say who poses the greatest threat, it was the Chang family before, but now it is replaced by Xiao Ran. And if we want to say who is the most resourceful, it must be Zhuang Jiachen.
In a sense, he can actually influence others more than Xia Lingcheng.
Zhuang Jiachen said calmly: "Mr. Xia is actually not a big shot in the army, and Xiao Ran must have discovered this."
"How can it be!"
"Yes, if Mr. Xia wasn't a big shot in the army, how could he have gotten the news in advance and notified us to collect supplies?"
"Isn't it true that even the Chang family was frightened?"
Everyone was puzzled. Zhuang Jiachen had always been shrewd, so why did he suddenly start talking nonsense?
Zhuang Jiachen shook his head, but no one could see it: "Xia Lingcheng is definitely not an army boss. After the natural disaster, I asked someone to inquire specifically. Among the active and retired army bosses, there is no one named Xia."
ah?
Everyone was stunned, because after the disaster, they listened to Xia Lingcheng's words and stocked up the goods in advance, thus surviving. They were already convinced of Xia Lingcheng's identity. Who would go out of their way to inquire?
But why didn't Zhuang Jiachen tell him earlier?
Zhuang Jiachen explained: "In order to shock the Chang family, I kept it secret, lest any of you let the Chang family know about it, and then we would all be annihilated."
"And now it is said that it is because Xiao Ran first became suspicious and then went to Xia's house. This should be confirmed."
For a moment, there was only a murmur on the intercom, but no one spoke.
Xia Lingcheng is not a big boss!
For the time being, they were not worried that Xiao Ran would be detrimental to them, but that the glimmer of hope in their hearts was gone.
——If Xia Lingcheng was a big boss in the army, would the country send someone to rescue him?
It's possible.
Now that Xia Lingcheng has been rescued, can we also rescue them?
You must know that they can afford, or buy, the villas here. None of them are ordinary rich people, but have various connections, but they are not connected to the sky. Therefore, when the time comes, the backend will have a network of connections. Say, maybe you can be rescued by the way?
But if Xia Lingcheng was not a big shot in the army, then the country would naturally not send anyone to pick him up, and all hope would be gone.
"I am telling this fact not to shock everyone, but to make everyone face reality." Zhuang Jiachen said solemnly, "This morning, everyone saw Xiao Ran driving a hovercraft out, right?"
As soon as these words came out, many people immediately became active.
"hovercraft!"
"Where did you get this kid?"
"Also, how did he dig out the hovercraft when the snow was so heavy and the snow was six to seven meters deep?"
"This is quite simple. Park the hovercraft in a garage or other places at first. After the snow stops, you only need to dig a ramp at the door, then start the hovercraft and rush up."
"If we can grab this hovercraft... we won't be left with nothing."
"Yes, the last time we collected food was more than 40 days ago, and the remaining food is no longer enough!"
"Then...robbed this guy?"
Zhuang Jiachen coughed and signaled everyone to be quiet: "First of all, we need to find out what happened to the Chang family? There are at least 50 living people. How come they are all gone when they say they are gone?"
"Even if Xiao Ran attacked by surprise, one person can kill more than 50 people. Let me ask you, are you afraid of such enemies?"
No one spoke, and everyone responded with silence.
"What should we do? We will soon face the problem of starvation." After a while, someone spoke.
Zhuang Jiachen smiled: "I only said to act with caution, but I didn't say to sit back and wait for death! It has been almost 50 days since the disaster, but the national rescue has not appeared, and I guess it will never appear. We must think Find a way to save yourself!”
"Yeah, yeah, yeah." Many people agreed.
"Yes, my mother still has diabetes and the insulin reserve is almost used up. I can't watch my mother die!"
"My wife is about to give birth."
"..."
Zhuang Jiachen cleared his throat again: "Please be patient, everyone. Our food can still last for a few days, so we should use this time as much as possible to deal with Xiao Ran and find out his details."
"The ancestors said that if you know yourself and the enemy, you will never be in danger in a hundred battles."
"How did Xiao Ran kill those people from the Chang family?"
"Until we understand this, we must not take action unless absolutely necessary, and we must not let Xiao Ran see our hostility towards him."
Everyone agreed. Who can reach their status and height, who is not a smart person?
"When Xiao Ran comes back, let's test his attitude first."
