The apocalypse arrives, but the five girls in Dormitory 806 haven't realized how serious the situation is until their roommates die one by one before their eyes. It wasn't until Cheng Zhi h...
The five people split up. Cheng Zhi and Huang Yiyi took a taxi to the home appliance store, while the other three went shopping in the mall.
Upon entering, Cheng Zhi immediately bought a commercial freezer and a household freezer, while Huang Yiyi also bought a new washer-dryer combo.
The two quietly stored the items into their spatial storage and then started browsing again, buying a generator and various pots, pans, and other kitchenware.
After leaving the appliance store, Huang Yiyi even considered going to the nearby 4S store, but the two of them were short of money and couldn't afford to buy anything.
Cheng Zhi patted Huang Yiyi on the shoulder, saying that these things wouldn't cost money after the apocalypse, and they could just come and get them when needed.
The two used the key to return to the cabinet and began assembling things. After a while, three other people appeared in the space carrying large and small bags.
Chen Siyu was mainly responsible for buying meat, including chicken, duck, pork, beef, and fish.
Zheng Wan bought a lot of eggs, vegetables, and beef balls, but thinking that these vegetables were not easy to preserve, she then went and bought seeds of various vegetables and fruits.
Xiao Feiran was much more daring. When she saw Zheng Wan buying seeds, she went straight to a farm in the suburbs and brought back four live chickens and three rabbits, and also bought the tools needed for plowing.
"Wow, that's amazing! Seeds, chickens, rabbits—our dorm is going to turn into a farm!"
Chen Siyu stroked the little rabbit in her hands, her eyes shining. "Hehehe, the rabbit is so cute, of course I have to eat it! Little rabbit, grow up quickly and have lots of little rabbits..."
After settling everything in the space, Xiao Feiran went to pick up the package.
Who would have thought that she would buy a sturdy security door and assembly tools?
Everyone was dumbfounded. Cheng Zhi probably guessed what Xiao Feiran was up to and asked with concern, "You want to reinforce our dorm door? But it'll be very noisy if you install it, won't it attract too much attention?"
Xiao Feiran shook his head confidently, fiddling with the hammer in his hand as he said, "Most of the people living on the eighth floor are from our School of Management. Tomorrow is Monday, and I checked the class schedule. Our major is basically full of classes in the morning, and there are also lectures by industry experts in the afternoon. Everyone will definitely go to listen. There will only be a few people on this floor. If they come to ask us, just say that our door lock is broken and the door panel has been damaged by termites, so we have to replace it."
The four people standing nearby nodded, but still felt it was inappropriate. Chen Siyu then asked directly, "But Feiran, how do you know how to install doors? Do you have this skill?"
Xiao Feiran tossed her hair dismissively, hoisted the electric drill onto her shoulder, and said, "My dad is a repairman. I used to watch him work all the time when I was a kid. It's just a door; he can install it in a minute."
Wow, he looks so confident. The other four people silently applauded, impressed by Master Xiao's electric drill.
Suddenly, Chen Siyu, who was still cheering, seemed to have thought of something. She slapped her thigh, stood up from the ground, and rushed out of the dormitory.
About an hour later, it came out of the cabinet again, and everyone curiously craned their necks to see what new things had been added to the space.
Chen Siyu chuckled twice, turned to the side, revealing a chainsaw, an electric lawnmower, and several stun guns behind her.
"In our past life, we had no weapons. When trouble came, we could only run away. If we couldn't escape, we would die. In this life, we're going to fight back! Whoever dares to bully us, we'll kill them!"
Seeing Chen Siyu's eyes getting redder as she spoke, the other four people surrounded her with concern. Cheng Zhi hugged her and said, "Yes, we will never be bullied again in this life. We will live to the end."
Night fell, and midnight was fast approaching, but Cheng Zhi tossed and turned in bed. Tomorrow was the 12th, and a strong wind would blow tonight, followed by a downpour soon after. The apocalypse would begin.
Although they were given a second chance at life and had this magical space, people couldn't help but worry: could all of them in 806 really get through this safely?
Perhaps it was a telepathic connection, but Xiao Feiran, who was sleeping across from them, gently tapped the wooden board between them twice and whispered, "Zhizhi, don't be too anxious. We've made so many preparations, we'll definitely get through this. We've also bought things for our families and told them we'd be safe too."
Cheng Zhi took a deep breath and tapped the bed twice in response. Watching the date on her phone change from 11 to 12, she closed her eyes. "Come on, all of you."
At eight o'clock in the morning, all the students in dormitory 806 skipped class. Some were dismantling doors, while others were reviewing supplies.
Seeing Huang Yiyi engrossed in researching "essential supplies for the apocalypse" on Zhihu, Cheng Zhi couldn't help but ask, "Yiyi, you're the class monitor, is it really okay for you not to go to class?"
Huang Yiyi, who usually values studying above all else, didn't even look up when she heard this. "It's the end of the world! What's the point of having classes? Holy crap! There are so many things in this thread that we don't even have yet. I have to go out!"
Without even changing out of her pajamas, she rushed out. Cheng Zhi yelled at the top of her lungs, "Do you even have money left to buy it?!"
"I'll use Alipay! I don't have to pay it back anyway!"
It was like opening the door to a new world. All four people in the dormitory had expressions of having learned something new. They thought, "Wow, you can do that too!"
With supplies already purchased, Xiao Feiran began tinkering with the new door.
Cheng Zhi looked around the dormitory and fixed her gaze on the balcony. Although she lived on the top floor, it was hard to guarantee that no one would break in.
Zheng Wan leaned back in her chair and followed Cheng Zhi's gaze to the balcony. However, she wasn't thinking about safety issues, but rather about privacy.
"Should we install curtains or put on privacy film? What if someone sees us living a perfectly fine life and comes to rob us?"
Chen Siyu, who was still lying in bed browsing the news, suddenly felt terrible. She immediately sat up and wanted to go with Zheng Wan to buy privacy films.
Cheng Zhi stayed behind to repair the door with Xiao Feiran. Although she wasn't the main force, she could still help with things like handing over tools.
It took Xiao Feiran about five minutes to remove the paper-thin wooden door. Installing the door was more complicated; hinges, locks, and doorstops—Xiao Feiran did her best to be meticulous, hoping the door would firmly protect their dormitory.
The installation lasted until noon, and they finally got it mostly done. The two decided to start working on it again after class in the afternoon.
The two of them worked quite quickly on the screen protector, finishing the entire glass door connecting the dormitory room and the balcony in just one morning. In the afternoon, they planned to go out and do some shopping, not wanting to miss a single detail.
The afternoon flew by, and finally, before get out of class ended, the door to room 806 was completely repaired.
Cheng Zhi opened and closed it, and couldn't help but sigh, "There's definitely a reason why it's expensive. The feel of it is different from the previous one."
The trio who went out to shop also returned to the dormitory before sunset. Seeing that everyone was there, Cheng Zhi quickly shared the idea she had been thinking about all day.
“We’ve swept through everything we needed to, but there’s one last place we need to go to.”
The other four stared at each other blankly, then slapped him across the face. "Stop keeping me in suspense, just tell me!"
Cheng Zhi smiled slyly, "The library! Let's expand our space."
