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 76 Send Qian Xiaoluo Home

Su Keke opened the car door and let Qian Xiaoluo sit in the passenger seat. She turned on the air conditioner in the car immediately.

When the warm air from the air-conditioning outlet slowly blew in, Su Keke felt that she was finally alive.

Just now she gave her down jacket to Qian Xiaoluo. In the weather of minus 20 degrees Celsius, Su Keke was wearing a turtleneck sweater.

With Qian Xiaoluo around, it was difficult for her to take clothes out of the space to wear.

Fortunately, there was a brand new down jacket still in its packaging in the back seat of the car. I took it out before because I wanted to see if Qian Xiaoluo needed to exchange it.

Now she could just take it and put it on herself. Su Keke quickly reached out, removed the outer packaging, and put it on impatiently.

Qian Xiaoluo has kept his head down and remained silent since getting in the car, but his complexion is obviously much better than before, perhaps because there is air conditioning in the car.

After Su Keke put on her down jacket, she took out a bottle of mineral water from the back seat, placed it on the air-conditioning vent to let it blow for a while, and when the bottle of mineral water was less cold, she handed it to Qian Xiaoluo next to her.

"Drink some water! Everything will be fine." Su Keke said.

"Thank you!" This was the second time Qian Xiaoluo spoke.

"You're welcome!" After Su Keke said these three words, she didn't know what else to say.

She felt that she didn't know how to comfort people, and didn't know what to say at the moment, so she could only sit quietly by the side.

Qian Xiaoluo opened the cap of the mineral water bottle, tilted his head back and gulped down half of the bottle.

"At four o'clock in the morning, I was still asleep when that man broke into the house from downstairs. I... I had no choice at the time. That man forced me to do it. If I didn't kill him, he would... he would..."

Qian Xiaoluo suddenly talked about what happened. He was so excited that he seemed to have asthma, coughing and gasping for breath.

“Stop! Stop now!”

Su Keke quickly patted Qian Xiaoluo's back gently, trying to make her stop thinking about the painful memories.

"I understand. Don't think about it anymore. You can't live in the store anymore. Where is your home? I'll drive you back."

Su Keke said anxiously.

Speaking of home, Qian Xiaoluo's first thought was that he didn't want to go back. But in this situation, where else could he go if not back home?

"In...in an old residential building on Pinghua Street." Qian Xiaoluo answered with difficulty.

"Okay! Then I'll take you back right away. Do you have anything else to pack upstairs? I'll go up with you."

Su Keke zipped up the down jacket she had just put on and planned to go upstairs with Qian Xiaoluo.

"I only have a few clothes and quilts to take with me. The cat food for you is still up there. Please come with me and move it."

Su Keke didn't expect Qian Xiaoluo to adjust her mood so quickly. It seemed that she didn't have to worry about her being unable to get over the shadow of this self-defense murder.

"Okay, let's go up quickly. Once we're done with this, you can go home early and have a good sleep."

"Okay!" Qian Xiaoluo said the word "Okay" in a daze. Could she sleep well when she returned to that home?

Qian Xiaoluo asked himself this question in his heart with some self-mockery.

There was no room for her in that house. Living in an empty living room in such a cold day, Qian Xiaoluo shivered all over when she thought of her.

When the two returned to the second floor of the pet shop again, Qian Xiaoluo's body visibly stiffened.

Su Keke told her not to look at the person on the ground and to pack up her things and leave immediately.

"Yeah! I got it!"

Qian Xiaoluo plucked up his courage and packed his clothes in a hurry. He originally wanted to take the quilt away, but when Qian Xiaoluo was folding the quilt, he saw bloodstains on it.

"Ah..." She was so scared that she threw the quilt in her hand far away.

"Are you okay?" Su Keke asked nervously.

"No...it's okay!" Qian Xiaoluo stuffed the clothes into a canvas bag and took Su Keke to the third floor to move cat food.

There are 8 bags of 10 catties cat food and 4 bags of 5 catties freeze-dried chicken.

The two of them went back and forth several times to move the things into the car.

The trunk of Su Keke's car is very big, so most of the cat food can fit in it.

The back seat of the car was filled with supplies that had been taken out from the space to exchange for cat food, except for the down jacket that Su Keke wore herself.

She planned to give the other supplies in the car to Qian Xiaoluo to take back.

"Um, Qian Xiaoluo, do you think it's okay to exchange these supplies for cat food?"

When the two returned to the SUV again, Su Keke pointed at the pile of supplies in the back seat and said.

"This... this is too much. My cat food is not worth so much. Just give me half."

In fact, Qian Xiaoluo felt that asking for half was too much. Since Su Keke had helped him so much today, he might as well give the cat food to her directly.

But she really had no choice. Her mother and brother had been relying on government relief food to survive.

If she doesn't bring some supplies when she goes back this time, her mother will definitely not be happy with her.

"My cat Tangyuan likes your cat food very much, so you can keep these supplies without worry. We are all taking what we need, so don't feel any psychological burden."

Su Keke said seriously.

"Then I'll take it! Thank you!"

Since Su Keke said so, Qian Xiaoluo did not insist. After all, people who can afford to keep pets in the end times must not lack these supplies.

Qian Xiaoluo silently remembered Su Keke's favor in his heart and planned to repay it someday when he had the chance. The most important thing now was not to let himself starve to death.

"Don't be so polite, we are friends now."

Su Keke took out a towel from the car, quickly opened the door, and wiped the snow off the windshield.

"The wind is blowing really cold."

She muttered something, quickly wiped the snow off her hands and returned to the car.

"Just show me the way, and I'll take you back first."

"Oh! OK, OK."

Qian Xiaoluo was stunned for a moment. At this moment, she actually thought that it would be great if she could stay in this car forever.

Su Keke didn't notice Qian Xiaoluo's trance. Now the snow was heavier than before, so she could only drive more carefully.

Along the way, Qian Xiaoluo didn't say anything else except giving Su Keke directions.

Su Keke drove the car directly to the old residential area that Qian Xiaoluo mentioned and parked it at the stairs on the first floor of her building.

"Hey! Whose car is this? Those who can still drive a car nowadays must be rich and powerful."

"Who would live in our shabby neighborhood if they have the money and power? Even if the firewood is burning in the brazier, it's not that warm."

A family on the second floor actually opened the window to watch Su Keke's car coming over on such a cold day.

Qian Xiaoluo opened the car door, picked up cooking oil in one hand and a 20-kilogram bag of rice in the other and prepared to go upstairs.

"Let me help you carry it up!" Su Keke asked.

"It's cold outside, just wait in the car. I'll go upstairs and ask my mom and brother to come down and move it."

Qian Xiaoluo smiled faintly at Su Keke, and the cold wind blew her messy hair, covering half of her face.

"Okay, then go up quickly."

Since Qian Xiaoluo said he didn't need her help, Su Keke just sat in the car and waited. She was not the type to handle those polite exchanges.

Not long after, Su Keke saw Qian Xiaoluo coming down with her mother and brother.
