Chapter 2948
The damn low temperature is really too deadly!
The woman was still shivering with a blanket wrapped around her.
The heating had been restored, but because the hole opened by the missile was too big, and the heating system on the top four floors had collapsed, even if these people were arranged in areas with heating capacity, they still couldn't stop the cold from invading.
Her head was still buzzing.
In her memory, it seemed that everything stayed in the morning of the day before yesterday.
Not long after receiving the food, the family was enjoying the quiet morning.
"Sunshine" rose from the ceiling, and it seemed that everything was getting better. The restlessness of the world in the city seemed to have returned.
She stood in front of the stove humming a little song she used to hum. Breakfast was a sandwich. The toaster they brought when they came here finally came in handy.
First, toast the bread until it was crispy on both sides, then spread butter on it, put a layer of vegetable leaves on it, then fry the beef filling, spread it flat, and finally add a piece of fruit slice.
A perfect, impeccable breakfast.
When the time reached half past eight, the whole family had already gotten up. They greeted each other and sat at the dining table, just like a happy moment in their memories.
Everyone enjoyed this rare breakfast, reminiscing about the best time and chatting easily.
"I heard that the shelter is starting to recruit workers."
The husband ate breakfast in small bites, unlike the children who ate in big mouthfuls. He understood the value of food and knew that it should be treated with more care.
Even if some burnt bread crumbs fell on the table because of biting, he would lick his index finger with his tongue, then put it back into his mouth with the bread crumbs.
The woman was surprised and a little surprised after hearing this, because having a job means having a stable income, so their lives will change.
It is no longer like the past, when the family can only rely on the most basic food security to survive, which is really too bad.
"What kind of work?"
"Mining, I heard, and then building a factory."
The husband seemed to be very excited when talking about these things, "The whole street is talking about it!"
After they came here, they soon had a new social life, a social life centered on the street. Residents of all the apartments on a street would spontaneously exchange some things together.
This is also the only thing they can do when they have nothing to do.
The news came from these people. It was heard that the shelter was going to open some factories, but there was no place to open factories in the shelter now.
So they planned to continue digging from the last floor to the surrounding area, digging out some space for factories, which can also well prevent pollution from invading the residential area of the shelter.
After digging, they will build a factory, and then continue to explore the surrounding area, continue to dig, mine minerals or something else, and workers are also needed in the factory.
A guy who seemed to have a lot of connections said this. He said that he knew a big man in the middle level, and the other party talked about these things during the phone conversation.
The Shelter Alliance is planning to restore the overall industrial environment, and different shelters have different work assignments.
The population of the shelter here is relatively large, so some heavy industry work indicators are allocated.
After all, industry can't be run without enough people. Any industrial supporting facilities require a lot of people.
If scattered in many different shelters, in such bad weather, transportation alone will drag down the development of all industries.
The Shelter Alliance also plans to reproduce the glory before the disaster and sprint to a new peak!
The man even looked at his son, "You can also find a job with me at that time. If you talk about other things, I may not be your opponent."
"But work, I can definitely be your teacher."
In fact, the younger son is not very old. In the past, he was a carefree teenager, but now he also needs to take on the responsibility of supporting himself and reducing family expenses.
The boy did not get angry when talking about entering the factory like in the past. In the past, he always fantasized that he was the absolute protagonist of this life.
In the future, he will definitely be a big man in people's eyes, and all he needs to do is not even work hard, just wait for "tomorrow" and "beauty" to come.
Now that he has experienced so much, he seems to have recognized the reality and his own destiny. He is just his own protagonist, not the protagonist of this world.
The protagonist of this world is Lin Qi, not him.
He nodded, "Okay, I'll go."
The man patted his neck with satisfaction. Perhaps the disaster had caused their family to suffer, but the growth of the children made the couple feel a different kind of relief and satisfaction.
The eldest daughter also pursed her lips, indicating that she would also find a job.
Just as the family's breakfast was coming to an end and the imagination of a better life in the future was just beginning, suddenly everyone's movements stopped.
They felt a clear sense of vibration, like... an earthquake?
Can the shelter withstand the damage of an earthquake?
They didn't know very well. The family quickly ran outside the house, and the streets were already crowded with people.
There were some gaps in the sky, and some dust fell down. No one knew what happened.
Immediately afterwards, the sky seemed to... encounter some bad situation. It started to turn black from the beginning, and then a huge scream came from the distance.
The family subconsciously wants to escape from here. Even if they don't know what happened or what will happen next, they just want to escape from here.
But how can their speed keep up with the power outage?
Before they could figure out what was going on, the floor they were on was completely dark.
The family hugged each other, and the husband comforted his wife and family as much as possible. People kept bumping into them in the dark surroundings.
The husband could only rely on his memory to retreat to the wall, and then used his back to protect the family in his arms.
In the invisible darkness, every time he suffered a hit, there would be a look of pain on his face.
"It'll be fine soon, it's probably just a temporary outage."
There were also people shouting so loudly around. As the emergency power supply came into effect, many weak light bulbs lit up on the streets. People's emotions seemed to begin to calm down under this weak light.
Perhaps humans are also a kind of plant. Without light, they will feel fear.
No one knew what happened, but there were cries and voices calling the names of loved ones all around.
Everything happened in less than a minute, and some people disappeared from their families.
The cursing, the noise, it gave me a headache.
This bad situation lasted for a long time, and many people returned home, but some people decided to go to the stairs and have a look above.
So far, no one from the management office has come to explain the situation, which makes them very uneasy.
The family decided to stay where they were.
It lasted until noon. Several hours later, it should be noon, but there was still no improvement, and no one told them what happened.
To make matters worse, when the husband decided to sit down and take a rest, he discovered that there was already a thin layer of water on the ground.
"Whose house's water pipes are not turned off?", he asked, but the same thing seemed to be happening further away.
This made the crowd start to panic, and the city, which had been quiet for several hours, became restless again.
An hour later, the water level began to rise. Now everyone began to be afraid. A large number of people began to try to leave the city relying on their memory of the city.
In fact, it is only a few kilometers away, and it only takes half an hour to an hour if you walk.
But it's too dark now, and the city streets are not straight.
Some people have to wait for rescue in place, and some people plan to leave this level.
The family also decided to leave, but they did not know the way to leave and just followed the direction of the large crowd.
I don’t know how long they have been walking, but the water has reached their waists and calves. Everyone’s emotions are on the verge of collapse.
They don't know if they can get out of here alive, and they don't know what happened!
There is no direction, only despair.
Much later, she was completely separated from her family.
She didn't know why, but she was pushed by the crowd to the "stairs" and ran upward numbly.
She thought her family was also in such a crowd, and she always comforted herself that the family would meet again up there.
But until now, she has not seen her family!
Husband, two adorable kids!
Everything was so bad, she looked up at the gaping hole in the sky, trying to find her family, but she had no strength at all.
She glanced at the old man beside her and pushed him gently, "Have you seen..."
As soon as she spoke, her eyes widened in horror. Under her gentle touch, the old man slowly tilted and then fell to the ground.
She reached out to touch it in disbelief, but the old man was already dead.
Tears instantly filled her eyes, and she covered her mouth tightly, sobbing.
This series of blows completely destroyed her faith and hope, and she seemed to understand something.
The cold was eating away at their bodies, and those damp clothes were like the invisible rope of death around their necks.
Some people have begun asking everyone to take off their wet clothes and wrap themselves tightly in dry blankets.
The woman looked at the people around her who were taking off their clothes without caring about other people's eyes, and she cried while taking off their clothes.
She doesn't want to die yet, she still wants to find her family, even if the hope is very slim!
Mr. Patu was sitting in the warm room, with a slight sweat on his forehead because of the overheated temperature. He unbuttoned his collar and cuffs, as if doing so could cool him down.
His subordinates reported on the progress of the rescue, and he nodded from time to time...
