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 49: Pulling out the Bald Sakura Country

Su Keke, Grandma Qiao, Tangyuan and a cat are in the living room of the capsule house. They can see what is happening outside through the large LCD TV in the living room.

Now they were already above Lingcheng. After a while, the houses and cities below became smaller and smaller. The capsule house brought them to an altitude of tens of thousands of meters. The TV screen was full of twinkling stars, which was dazzling.

"This... this starry sky is so beautiful! I've taken night flights many times before, but I've never seen such a beautiful starry sky."

Grandma Qiao held Tangyuan in her arms and looked at the TV in the living room with her eyes full of pink little stars.

"It was also the first time I saw such a beautiful sky. It was as if I had really walked into the wonderful artistic conception of ancient poetry where one could pick the stars with one's hands."

Su Keke sat on the carpet in the living room, facing the TV screen, closer to her than Grandma Qiao. She seemed to be in a sea of stars, more beautiful than a 3D effect.

About 50 minutes later, the capsule house had passed through the night and arrived above the Sakura Country. The night sky here was surprisingly white everywhere.

"Why is it snowing so heavily in the country of cherry blossoms?" Grandma Qiao asked puzzledly as she approached the TV screen.

"There are natural disasters all over the world now. Here in Sakura Country, it's probably a snowstorm." Su Keke showed the calmness of an experienced person, looking at the white sky without any nervousness.

"We have arrived over the Sakura Country. Please set the landing site."

The mechanical sound of the transparent panel rang in Su Keke's ears at the right time.

"Please help me mark all the large supermarkets in the capital of Sakura Country!"

As soon as Su Keke finished speaking, a clear map of the capital of Sakura Country appeared on the 120-inch LCD TV in the living room of the capsule house.

The densely packed red dots on the screen made Su Keke develop trypophobia, but luckily there was a hint number 2086 in the lower right corner of the map.

Su Keke was immediately ashamed. How could there be so many big supermarkets in this broken capital? It seemed that she had been a little too confident today. She really couldn't wipe out the Sakura Country in one go. However, there was still a long way to go. Su Keke was really confident that she could wipe it out.

Su Keke's first choice was a large shopping mall in the city center. It was snowing heavily here, with the snow on the ground already one meter high. Traffic in the entire city was paralyzed, and all the major shopping malls were closed.

The time difference between Sakura Country and China is only one hour, so it can basically be ignored. It is now 8 o'clock in the evening here, and the lights in most residential buildings are still on.

Su Keke observed through the LCD TV that in several places in the city, there were soldiers from the Sakura Country shoveling snow with shovels.

However, these places are far away from the large shopping mall that Su Keke is going to, so she doesn't have to worry about encountering them.

"Grandma Qiao, let's go to the basement to find down jackets. The temperature outside is very low. We can't catch a cold here."

Su Keke pulled Grandma Qiao into the underground supply storage room, and the two of them looked for various thick and warm clothes to wear in the clothing area.

Thermal underwear is worn innermost, and then a turtleneck sweater, a warm jacket, fleece jeans, a long down jacket, a hat, a scarf, goggles, a mask, gloves, thick socks, and snow boots are put on. None of them can be missing. The two of them fiddled with it for a long time until they wrapped themselves up like a dumpling.

"Hahaha! Hahaha!" Su Keke and Grandma Qiao looked at each other and laughed very loudly.

"Keke, let me tell you, even when I went to Northeast China and it was 20 degrees below zero, I never wore so many clothes. Now I feel a little breathless!"

Grandma Qiao pulled her scarf and said with a smile.

"I feel the same way, but we won't feel so hot once we get out of the capsule house. I just saw the transparent panel showing that the outdoor temperature is minus 30 degrees Celsius."

"Ah! It's so cold outside in the Land of Sakura!" Grandma Qiao found it a little unbelievable. It's only September in the lunar calendar!

"Our place has about the same temperature even in the extreme cold. Grandma Qiao! Let me help you get used to it today!"

Su Keke pulled Grandma Qiao out of the basement with a wicked smile on her face.

"This is for you!" Su Keke handed Grandma Qiao a small pistol.

"Do we still need to bring guns? The road is blocked by heavy snow and there is basically no one outside. We should be safe, right?" said Grandma Qiao.

"Take it first! I have room to get a gun at any time, you take the gun with you just in case."

Su Keke insisted that Grandma Qiao carry a gun and also told her not to stay too far away from her after leaving the capsule house.

In this way, even if they encounter unknown danger, Su Keke can pull Grandma Qiao into the space as soon as possible.

These days, Su Keke spends two hours every day in the makeshift shooting room at Shi Huan's house teaching people on the 20th floor how to shoot. Now Grandma Qiao has no problem shooting at all.

On the surface, Su Keke had a pistol of her own, and Ming Ge and his men also left behind a pistol when they died.

Su Keke installed silencers on both pistols and let the people who wanted to learn take turns using them.

Chen Da and Lu Mei had no interest in learning shooting, mainly because they were afraid to shoot.

So for those two hours every day, it was basically Grandma Qiao, Shi Huan, Meng Yi and Chen Li who took turns practicing.

Meng Yi had learned archery before, so it was not difficult for him to learn shooting now. However, Shi Huan seemed to have no talent in this area.

Su Keke taught for several days and Meng Yi had already reached a proficient level.

Grandma Qiao and Chen Li could hit the target in seven or eight rings out of ten shots, but Shi Huan almost missed the target. Because of this, Shi Huan cried to Meng Yi several times in private.

Now, one of the two pistols is with Su Keke and the other is kept by Meng Yi.

When Tangyuan saw the two people coming out, he jumped happily onto Su Keke.

"Tangyuan, just wait for us at home!" Su Keke said as she touched Tangyuan's head before going out.

Grandma Qiao even picked up Tangyuan and pressed her forehead against his. This person and this cat always like to be so affectionate!

In Su Keke's space, in addition to humans, other animals can stay in the space as long as Su Keke brings them in, even if she is not there.

“Meow... meow meow..." Tangyuan nodded sensibly and agreed a few times.

"Grandma Qiao, we're getting ready to go out!" Su Keke said as he put on his goggles.

"Okay! I'm ready!" Grandma Qiao was both excited and nervous.

Su Keke held Grandma Qiao's hand, and the two of them came out of the capsule house and walked into the department store.

Due to heavy snow, the road was blocked and the mall was closed. There was no heating in such a large place, so Su Keke and Grandma Qiao felt a very strong cold air as soon as they came out.

"Oh my god! I'm wearing so many clothes, but I'm not warm at all. I'm sweating in this space."

Su Keke shivered from the cold, and a layer of mist came out of her mouth as she spoke.

"It's really cold!" Grandma Qiao stomped her feet back and forth on the ground. She felt that the snow boots on her feet were almost the same as single shoes. She was still cold even after wearing them.
