Zheng Haomei saw several messages popping up in the group chat, which must have been compliments and envy for her, so she clicked on them confidently.

As expected, they were all praises, and the smile on Zheng Haomei's face was visible to the naked eye.

Jin Zhe coaxed her gently at the right time:

"So beautiful! In my eyes, you do the best! No one can compare to you."

After hearing Jin Zhe's sweet words, Zheng Haomei felt even happier.

By the time people finished their New Year's Eve dinner and prepared to go home, they realized that the snow was already above their knees.

Some people insisted on returning to their homes, while others wanted to wait until the snow stopped before leaving.

After finishing his meal, Lin Lang stood by the window, looking at the knee-deep snow, and murmured softly: "The end of the world is coming."

The sky was like a cloth bag filled with cotton. The bag was torn and the cotton inside poured out.

The snow fell even harder, with no sign of letting up.

Some people who wanted to wait until the snow stopped were now completely unable to leave.

After yawning, Lin Lang took a comfortable hot bath and fell asleep in the warm room.

Two hours later, the snow was waist-deep.

At three o'clock in the morning, the temperature had dropped to minus 22 degrees Celsius.

Many people woke up from the cold in their beds. After being woken by the cold, people pulled out their thick quilts and put on layers of thick sweaters, trying to wrap themselves up like silkworm cocoons.

Lin Lang's phone vibrated frequently, waking her up.

It turned out that someone in the group was staying up all night to celebrate the New Year and was about to go out to set off firecrackers and fireworks. However, when they left the house, the snow had already fallen by more than 2 meters. This is when people in the group started discussing it one after another.

[12 01 Cui Ming: Everyone, wake up! The temperature has dropped. Check on your family members. Keep warm!]

[2101 Quanquan: It's so damn cold, I've already used two or three quilts.]

[5 02 Morning Wang Qiang: Oh my god, hurry up and see, the snow has already reached half of the first-floor windows.]

[102 Xu Jie: Woohoo, I won't be drowned in the snow, right?]

[502 Wang Qiang: I don't know. The snow hasn't stopped yet.]

[102 Xu Jie: This is so scary, what should I do?]

[503 Yang Hua: Why don't you stay here for a night? I have a room available. My roommate has gone back to her hometown.]

Lin Lang narrowed his eyes and watched Yang Hua helping Xu Jie in the group.

In the first few days, most of the owners of the upper floors kindly took in some people from the lower floors.

But then there was continuous heavy snow, and when the floors below the 9th floor were buried in snow, the people who were taken in could not return to their homes, and supplies on the upper floors were in short supply. When it came to survival, helping others, being righteous, and having a sense of honor all went to hell!

Lin Lang was very clear about the situation that would follow, and he knew that his safe house could at least last until the flood receded.

So she turned off her phone and went back to sleep peacefully.

At this time, on the first floor, Xu Jie was spinning around in fear, and then she looked again and saw that the other person was also a girl.

I felt relieved instantly and went out wrapped up tightly.

As a result, she couldn't open the door, and she was so anxious that she was about to cry that she asked for help in the group.

[102Xu Jie: What should I do? The door won't open. Can someone help me?]

[2101 Quanquan: The property manager Cui Ming is here, call him.]

Xu Jie immediately contacted Cui Ming

There was no other choice, so Cui Ming put on the property management company's cotton coat, took the shovel his mother used for farming and went out.

After going downstairs, Cui Ming felt that the situation was a bit serious.

The snow is falling so heavily and there is no sign of it stopping.

If it keeps raining like this, the first floor will probably be flooded.

So he knocked on every door and found that there were only two households living on the first floor.

It's Xu Jie and an old man with mobility issues.

The old man’s children lived upstairs and were quickly brought up.

There was ice at the door of Xu Jie's house, which prevented her from opening the door. Cui Ming used a shovel to shovel away the ice.

Xu Jie thanked Cui Ming for the fruit, then put on her down jacket and a thick quilt, and went to Room 503 with some things.

After all, they took me in, and it would be embarrassing to go empty-handed.

After doing all this, Cui Ming was so cold that he hurried upstairs.

Jiangcheng is located in the central region of China. The winter is wet and cold, freezing to the bone!

In previous years, the coldest winter temperature was around 0 degrees Celsius, and the coldest temperature recorded was minus 18 degrees Celsius more than 100 years ago.

The temperature suddenly dropped to -22°C.

The snow kept falling and the temperature kept dropping. The snow on the air conditioner kept getting thicker and thicker, and slowly, the air conditioner stopped working.

The entire city seemed to be photographed into a two-dimensional painting. Not a sound could be heard, and the silence was eerie.

the next day

"ah!"

"ah"

Screams one after another pierced the entire community.

Late last night, many people who were drunk at the New Year's Eve dinner and frail elderly people froze to death in their sleep.

Some children even disappeared.

The heart-wrenching cries of the mother who lost her child hurt many people.

Lin Lang slept until 9 o'clock in the morning.

She took two bowls of tofu pudding from the space: one sweet and one salty. Both sweet and salty tofu were her favorites. She also had a fried dough stick and a cup of cucumber juice from the space.

While eating, I turned on the TV and watched today's morning news.

China's infrastructure is the best in the entire Blue Planet, and the current outdoor temperature does not affect the current power supply.

On TV, the news anchor was wearing a military coat and breathing white air from his mouth while reporting, as if the scene was blurred.

It turned out that the temperature dropped globally overnight, and even the desert in Zhuoyang Province was snowing.

"The country is organizing forces to deal with this snowstorm. Please don't panic."

"In the near future, we need to pay attention to keeping warm and use heating equipment properly to avoid secondary disasters."

The host was obviously trying to control his breathing and spoke much faster than usual.

Lin Lang couldn't help but smile when he heard this.

The phone rang again, and Lin Lang took a moment to glance at it.

Zhang Wei, the community secretary who had been silent for years, is now online.

"1701 Zhang Wei: Dear neighbors, I am Zhang Wei, a community secretary. I have received a notice that snowplows cannot enter due to road congestion, and we are being called upon to help shovel snow."
