Chapter 130 New Year's Eve

Seeing that everyone was eating happily, Chen Shunwei smiled and asked Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan to sit aside.

Shen Yanming asked Chen Shunwei to eat first, but Chen Shunwei said, "I've almost finished eating. You guys finally came here, let's chat for a while."

"Yes, yes, yes. You guys continue chatting. I have saved some boiled fish for you. You can eat it later." Wang Lai muttered while not yet swallowing the meat in his mouth.

Shen Yanming nodded and started chatting with Chen Shunwei. After a few words, they talked about the fire that happened some time ago.

Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan returned home the next day after putting out the fire and had no idea what happened next. It was only after listening to Chen Shunwei that they realized so many things had happened.

That night, Chen Shunwei and his group of people came to the security room and security dormitory to rest. Of course, most people, like Shen Yanming and his group, stayed in their cars for the night.

The next day, most people returned home, except for those that were burned down by the fire.

After the fire was put out, they returned home and saw that the walls were all black, the windows were burnt out, there was no water or electricity, and now even the furniture was gone. There were also leaks everywhere. How could they live here?

So, they returned to the security room, but they couldn't let them be the boss of the security room. There were only two single beds in the security room, how could so many people stay there? There were no extra beds in the security dormitory either. Last night, everyone just sat together and made do for the whole night.

They discussed it together, and some of them decided to go live with their relatives after thinking about it, but most of them had nowhere to go.

It’s different now than before. All the hotels and restaurants are closed, so they can’t do anything even if they have money.

Another option is to rent a house from the Housing Management Office for temporary residence, but the key is that all their supplies have been burned. Now they have no water, no vegetables, no rice, and no food. They really can't survive.

One of them thought that since so many people in the building lived alone or had small families, there would always be a few empty rooms. So more than a dozen people went back to Building No. 6, knocking on doors one by one, begging the other party to take them in for a while.

Those with hard hearts were rejected, and those with softer minds were morally blackmailed. They just hesitated for a moment and were squeezed into the room. They listened to the various benefits promised by the other party, but they didn't expect that they were actually welcoming a giant Buddha.

It was fine at the beginning and everyone was quite well behaved, but after a long time, these people started to find fault, sometimes saying they didn't eat well, sometimes saying they wanted some water to wash up, which made those who were doing good things feel sick.

If you say you want to kick them out, they will accuse you of being treacherous. You promised them all the best when you let them move in, but now that they have received the benefits, they start to dislike them.

But in reality, the benefit is just some money, but in this environment, no matter how much money you give, you can't buy water and vegetables. Their inventory is decreasing rapidly, but they can't get rid of their own "great god".

Chen Shunwei also told Shen Yanming that someone actually knocked on their door that day. Chen Shunwei knew that Shen Yanming would definitely not let anyone live in his house, but he couldn't say it out loud. When the family knocked for a long time but no one opened the door, Chen Shunwei secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Shen Yanming thought about it and realized that he should have been in the space with Bi Qiaoan at that time. It was a coincidence that he escaped. However, even if he was caught red-handed at that time, Shen Yanming would not let outsiders live in his house.

"Have you found out the cause of the fire?" Shen Yanming asked.

"The family escaped and kept silent at first, but they finally spoke up when they were taken away by the security team for investigation. They said they bought a stove because their home was too cold.

But they had never used a stove before and were completely unaware of the potential danger. When the old lady went to bed at night, she placed the stove next to the bed. As a result, the old man turned over in his sleep, and the quilt fell down and was ignited by the stove.

So the old man was burned so badly that his skin turned black. He is still in the hospital. I heard that he cannot be cured. He is lucky to be alive. "

Shen Yanming nodded, feeling a little scared. Fortunately, he was careful enough when using the stove and always put it away before going to bed, so it was indeed safe.

"But it will be fine in the future. The heating has been delivered. As long as you are careful, there shouldn't be any more fires." Seeing Shen Yanming's pale face, Chen Shunwei spoke to comfort him.

After they chatted for a while, Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan returned home. On the way, Bi Qiaoan asked Shen Yanming: "Don't you need to go see Ji Kangyong? He is also alone. And Zhang Heping, I don't know if he is at home recently."

Shen Yanming smiled, "Go ahead, go back and bring them some food, I guess they are together."

The two of them went home, took a bucket of boiled fish and a bucket of mutton and radish soup, and rang the doorbell of Ji Kangyong's house.

"Hey, I told you two would come, please come in!" Zhang Heping opened the door with an expression that said, "As expected."

Shen Yanming walked in with a smile, "Have you eaten everything?"

"I ate it. Why, did you bring us food?"

"I brought some, but I don't know if you can finish it."

"I can eat it, I can eat it. It's a good deal if I eat one more bite!" Zhang Heping took the thermos bucket and opened it. "Oh, this is a new year gift!"

Zhang Heping took two bowls and filled soup for himself and Ji Kangyong. "Try it today. You don't have to cook tomorrow. By the way, I'll come here to eat tomorrow, too!"

"Are you free?" Ji Kangyong said after putting away the two thermoses.

"What a waste of time! The hospital is full of patients suffering from gas poisoning. People are sent in every day. Recently, there are also some patients infected with parasites. I don't know how these people got the diseases. They make us sick..."

"Diseases come from the mouth!" said Bi Qiaoan.

After being reminded, Zhang Heping finally remembered what they had said about eating meat. "No way, is it really about eating meat?"

"It's hard to say, but it's definitely related to food. Maybe the water and food they stored were spoiled or contaminated with insect eggs?" Shen Yanming added.

Shen Yanming's statement is easier to accept. "Besides, there has been no water for several months, and personal hygiene cannot be guaranteed. It is hard to say when they were infected with worm eggs."

Zhang Heping patted his chest and said, "Fortunately, I was well prepared. Otherwise, if you said that I, a famous doctor, was infected with parasites, I would be laughed at to death..."

Uh...what a big face!

Well, as long as you are happy!

Chen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan spent the New Year's Eve with Zhang Heping and Ji Kangyong in a warm room, but in a corner of Hai City, two pitiful men were squatting together, shivering, crying and calling someone in Dijing...
