Apocalyptic Natural Disasters: I Have a Capsule House

On the tenth day of the apocalypse, Su Keke was forcibly driven out of her home by her adoptive parents and sister. The reason was to reduce one person's consumption of supplies, even though Su...

Chapter 43 Unlocking a new character Qin Xiu

In order to prevent the pigs from being washed away by the flood, the four people began to divide the work and cooperate.

Su Keke and Meng Yi went to find a rooftop close to the group of pigs, took out bows and arrows to shoot them, while Chen Da and Chen Li drove the rubber boat over to catch the pigs.

When Chen Li brought the rubber boat closer to the herd of pigs, Su Keke raised the bow and arrow in his hand and shot an arrow. Unfortunately, the pig closest to the rubber boat was hit. However, the pig did not fall down immediately, but struggled even harder.

As soon as Chen Da got closer, he was splashed with water.

"Swish" another arrow was fired, and Meng Yi followed with another arrow. The pig finally stopped struggling. Chen Da and Chen Li hurried over and grabbed the pig's legs. Without much effort, they dragged the pig onto the rubber boat.

Following the same process, the four of them quickly caught another pig. In order not to exceed the weight limit, Chen Da and Chen Li could only take the two pigs back to the community with reluctance.

Su Keke and Meng Yi continued to stay on the roof and watch the pigs. The current flood was not very severe, and the remaining eight pigs were still within the sight of Su Keke and Meng Yi.

"Brother Meng Yi, eat something. We have nothing to do right now anyway!"

Su Keke took out two sandwiches from the backpack she was carrying.

"Oh, you still have this delicious food?"

When Meng Yi saw Su Keke giving him a still hot sandwich, his eyes lit up and he couldn't wait to take a big bite.

The soft toast is filled with eggs, lettuce and ham, and it tastes warm and fresh from the oven.

Although this sandwich is not some delicacy, it is much better than the biscuits and instant noodles Meng Yi has been eating these days.

"Grandma Qiao just made this this morning. Isn't it delicious?"

Su Keke could only say that it was made by Grandma Qiao in the morning, because it was still hot when it was just taken out of the space.

She deliberately carried a bag with her in the morning just to make it easier for her to get things from the space.

"Hmm...delicious! Grandma Qiao's sandwich is really authentic!" Meng Yi kept praising while eating.

Su Keke thought, "This is the sandwich I stockpiled from the United States, how can it not be authentic!"

Just as the two were eating the sandwiches in their hands and chatting, a speedboat was approaching Su Keke not far away.

Qin Xiu was wearing a black baseball uniform, an orange life jacket, and a mask. He was driving a speedboat alone in the suburbs of Lingcheng searching for useful supplies.

His idea was the same as Su Keke's. There were many people and few sundries in the city, so he would be conspicuous if he drove out in a speedboat.

Therefore, Qin Xiu also set the search area to the suburbs of Lingcheng, but he left home a little late, so Su Keke and others got there first.

Qin Xiu lives in the Lanshan Villa District, which is located in Lingcheng.

The terrain there is higher, and it is the only place in Lingcheng that has not been flooded.

There are only 12 villas in the whole villa area, and each villa is far away from each other, with a quiet environment and plenty of private space. The only disadvantage is that it is expensive and most people can't afford it.

Qin Xiu is an online suspense writer. At the age of 28, he has already written two best-selling suspense novels published in physical form and three highly popular serialized mystery novels on the Internet.

Since the beginning of this year, he has had repeated dreams about various natural disasters, including typhoons, floods, extreme cold, extreme heat, acid rain, and earthquakes.

At first, Qin Xiu just laughed it off after waking up, but the same dream kept happening over and over again, and he seemed to think that this might be some kind of hint.

In his dreams, these natural disasters occurred one after another, and people struggled painfully in extreme environments.

The strange thing is that this dream would suddenly disappear after every earthquake.

What Qin Xiu remembered most was that in this unprecedented earthquake, Lanshan Villa District was the only area in Lingcheng that did not collapse.

I don’t know if it was because he loved his life too much or what, but Qin Xiu actually went to Lanshan Villa District and bought a villa.

Anyway, he was not short of money. His parents left him a lot of property when they passed away. However, because he had no interest in business, he sold both companies and only left a few shops to collect rent.

I don’t know if it was because of the earthquake in the dream, but Qin Xiu sold all his other properties and only had the villa in Lanshan Villa District.

During the renovation, he took various disaster prevention measures and used the most advanced bulletproof and explosion-proof glass.

The front and back yard walls of the villa were raised and reinforced on the original basis, and were covered with electrified barbed wire for anti-theft purposes.

An extra-large cold storage was built in the basement to store fresh supplies.

No matter whether everything in the dream will come true or not, it is always a good idea to prepare first.

It was not until August 13 that Qin Xiu received a super typhoon warning text message from the Meteorological Observatory.

Only then did he completely believe that the natural disaster he had seen in his dream was not nonsense. Seeing that a typhoon was about to hit, Qin Xiu suddenly felt a little panicked.

At present, he has only carried out basic protection of the villa, and has not stockpiled any supplies.

There were only three days left, so Qin Xiu had to force himself to make a decision immediately and go to major stores and supermarkets to buy supplies.

His novels have been discontinued in the past few days, and readers on the Internet have been arguing about it. Some even thought that Qin Xiu had suddenly met with an accident.

During these short three days, Qin Xiu drove his Mercedes-Benz G to various places in Lingcheng to make purchases.

Meat, seafood, fruits and vegetables, rice, flour, grain and oil. Medicines, clothing, waterproof and winter clothing, gasoline and diesel, all kinds of shopping.

Especially diesel. If there is a power outage in the future, the basement cold storage will rely entirely on diesel generators.

The day before the typhoon landed, Qin Xiu rushed to pick up his sister and niece to live with him. They were the only relatives Qin Xiu had in the world.

As for that brother-in-law, Qin Xiu really didn't want to mention him. He was a complete scumbag.

He used her sister's money to support his lover outside, often not coming home for months, and when he came home he would ask for money. But her sister was still in love, and she would forgive him as long as the scum said a few nice words.

Qin Xiu had quarreled with his sister many times over these things, and later he simply stopped contacting her.

If this super typhoon had not been exactly the same as what he saw in his dream, he would probably still be in a cold war with her sister.

When he went to pick up her sister, Qin Xiu specially thought of a reason, saying that he had bought a villa and wanted to take the mother and daughter to live there for a few days so that they could get acquainted with the place.

Otherwise, with her love-brained sister, she would wait for her scumbag brother-in-law even if the sky fell.

Later, due to two months of typhoons and floods, her sister could no longer go back, but she was still obsessed with that scumbag brother-in-law.

Whenever Qin Xiu went out to look for supplies, his sister would repeatedly tell him to look for his brother-in-law, saying that maybe he would find him if he was lucky.

Every time Qin Xiu went out, he would just nod and deal with it, but he was thinking in his heart, it’s not like he was kicked in the head by a donkey, would he bring that scumbag back to continue to harm his sister?

At this moment, Qin Xiu's speedboat had already entered the flower field breeding base, and he also saw the signboard floating in the flood.
