In August, it rains heavily in the mountain city.
The rain has been falling for ten days and shows no sign of stopping. It has even become more terrifying and arrogant. The raindrops hit the windows sharply, making people unable to sleep.
The whole city has suspended production and classes, and there is a shortage of supplies. Everyone is staying at home, using their mobile phones to express anxiety.
“Lianjia Supermarket is completely empty!”
"The owner of the Mijia Grain and Oil Store and his brother-in-law were guarding the door with machetes! They also said that the knife has no eyes, so whoever chops them up will do it."
“Oh my gosh, there are so many people digging through trash cans for food on a rainy day!”
Lin Shuangshuang sat cross-legged on the sofa and shared her experiences in the community with Qu Nuan.
Qu Nuan nodded and responded vaguely, turning around to think about the food he had hoarded at home.
A person can barely survive on two meals a day, which is enough for half a month.
If it’s two people, it’s only enough for a week…
Qu Nuan's inner embarrassment couldn't be increased.
All the food she had here was brought by Fa Xiaolin Shuangshuang, who lived upstairs. He said that water seepage in her house had turned into a water curtain hole, and they had to exchange food for accommodation.
But Qu Nuan knew that Lin Shuangshuang was simply worried that she would not be able to eat...
She was indeed too poor to eat.
My mother died suddenly six months ago.
My father bought a new house three months ago and married his new wife.
In the same month, he celebrated her 19th adult birthday and tacitly cut off her living expenses.
She could only rely on painting dealer manuscripts and work-study.
The tuition fees for the next school year that I had just saved have depreciated to the point where I can no longer afford a bag of rice.
If it weren't for Lin Shuangshuang's help, she would be the one going out to dig out the trash can now.
What's even more frightening is that if the heavy rain and flooding don't end, she will have to drag Lin Shuangshuang to dig through the trash can...
"We won't dig out the trash cans! My dad just sent a message saying that the schools and hospitals on Lege Mountain have been requisitioned to accommodate the victims. If that doesn't work, we will go up the mountain to relocate them!" Lin Shuangshuang saw Qu Nuan's concerns and put down her phone. Be comforted.
Ye Shuangshuang's parents are both political figures in the mountainous city. They are working on the front line to deal with the disaster at this time, and they know much more than ordinary people.
"That's good!" Qu Nuan smiled, thinking about going to Lege Mountain first and leaving all the food to Lin Shuangshuang.
Just then, her phone buzzed.
A text message: [Madam, our president appreciates your first draft. Can you revise it as soon as possible? Of course, money is of little use due to the current disaster. We are willing to exchange materials and food for copyright. 】
This was a staff member of the Shancheng Acorn Group. Ye Shuangshuang was a little flattered when he came to order the painting, and he worked very hard on the painting.
As a result, it rained harder and harder in the past two days, and floods continued to occur in various places.
She thought the business was dead, but she didn't expect such a surprising result!
Such a large enterprise must not be short of food!
Even if it's a bag of rice? I can live one more month.
Qu Nuan relaxed completely, like a fish on the beach waiting for the tide to rise. He smiled and shared the news with Ye Shuangshuang, then turned around and ran into the bedroom.
She turned on her desktop computer, took out her drawing board, and prepared to modify the painting.
But the computer screen was black and unresponsive.
"No way, Sir, what happened at the critical moment?" Qu Nuan pressed the power button frantically.
This computer was left behind by my mother. It has a lifespan of more than ten years. It usually runs very smoothly, but unexpectedly something went wrong today.
Qu Nuan's mind inexplicably pictured a scene where he couldn't deliver the manuscript, couldn't get supplies, and had to dig through the trash can... His scalp felt numb.
She quickly picked up the computer and looked around. With her keen observation, she noticed a small protrusion at the bottom of the laptop, which looked like a bulging battery.
The battery is broken? Qu Nuan touched the bulge in distress.
Suddenly, a tingling electric feeling spread throughout the body, and then a voice resounded through the whole mind:
[Monitoring host changes, detecting host identity...
Congratulations to the host for successfully binding the system and gaining points from the original host. 】
"Wait! What the hell is this!"
【We are not ghosts! It is the human rescue system that prevents humankind from going extinct. 】
[When binding for the first time, you can freely choose an ability to achieve system goals. 】
"Can it not be bound?" Qu Nuan didn't know what the system was doing and didn't dare to act rashly.
[You have inherited the points from the original host and cannot be unbound. 】
Qu Nuan: "..."
[It is detected that the host is the daughter of the original host. According to the original host’s suggestion, it is better for the successor to obtain the space system...]
Qu Nuan felt that his brain was suddenly congested, and he quickly asked: "My mother! What did my mother do? Why did she die? Does it have anything to do with you?"
[The original host was a very good task executor. She delayed the end of the world for fifty years and devoted all her energy to mankind. We believe she died from overwork. 】
The blood flowed back and Qu Nuan was confused.
Indeed, as the system said, my mother suddenly fell ill at work and died within a few minutes of being sent to the hospital for emergency treatment.
The doctor said she had fulminant myocarditis, which was caused by too much stress and overwork.
But my mother was just an ordinary librarian. At most, she would occasionally come home late, and she would laugh and say she had lost track of time while reading.
Qu Nuan couldn't find the reason, and even suspected that his father's cheating caused his mother's emotional breakdown, and she became furious.
But there's no way to prove it, because my mother smiles every day, never worries about trivial matters in life, and doesn't care what her father does.
At most, there's just a hint of mystery in the smile.
Today, the mystery has an explanation.
Qu Nuan: "Can you tell me what exactly my mother did?"
[The host level is not high enough to detect confidential matters. You will be able to find out after upgrading. 】
[Host, please choose an ability: teleportation, telekinesis, space...]
"Space." Qu Nuan interrupted the system.
Without him, this is the choice given by the mother.
She trusts the judgment of the love of her life.
She is also willing to continue along this path.
[Start binding the space system. According to the host points, the space is automatically upgraded to the ultimate form. 】
[Any product that has an impression in the host's mind can be used unlimitedly here.
[The host can also place his own items in the space, excluding living creatures. 】
[The Guide to Saving Humanity has been included and can be read by the host in the space. 】
【……】
"Shuangshuang! Shuangshuang! Come quickly!" Qu Nuan shouted. She wanted Lin Shuangshuang to witness this scene with her. In addition, she was a little nervous and wanted Lin Shuangshuang to accompany her.
Before Lin Shuangshuang could respond, she felt like something had slipped into her consciousness, and the scene in front of her changed in an instant.
A white space, sprinkled with wisps of Jesus light.
Under the holy light, Qu Nuan couldn't help but think of the canteen at the entrance of the community. When she was a child, she often stayed there and asked her mother to buy a planet cup for herself.
Her mother always laughed and scolded her: "Nuan Bao'er, it's not healthy to eat that thing! So we can only buy one!"
The moment Qu Nuan recalled it, the canteen appeared in the space!
Qu Nuan walked to the shelf. Even the location of the planet cup was exactly the same as in his memory.
Qu Nuan took two, silently thinking in her mind and returning to reality, her vision suddenly switched,
I was already sitting in front of the computer, and my hands were still a little heavy.
It is crunchy to chew, sweet to taste, rich in chocolate, and a genuine planet cup!
I really got a super space with unlimited supplies!
