Bi Qiao’an lay motionless in the icy snow, watching helplessly as the falling flakes slowly buried her. As her consciousness faded, her mind drifted back to the three arduous years she had spent ...
Chapter 356 There is news
After Shen Yanming returned to the tent, he also wiped his face and arms with a wet towel, then changed into clean pajamas and lay down in bed.
This was probably the second time he and Joan had gone camping in the wild. Last time, Joan was not pregnant yet, but this time, her belly was so big that it looked like she was about to give birth.
He gently hugged her from behind, and when their wrists touched, Shen Yanming heard a "ding" sound.
I took my hand back and saw that it was the smart bracelet that I had almost never used.
Shen Yanming couldn't help but hold his forehead. How could he have forgotten about this thing? Even if the mobile phone signal was gone, this thing couldn't be without signal! Wasn't the original intention of designing the smart brain bracelet to deal with such emergencies?
And it seems that not only me, but everyone on Qingning Mountain has forgotten the things on their wrists!
I think the failure of Qinghe Alliance to send out the notice is probably closely related to this situation!
Shen Yanming quickly pressed the power button, and within a few seconds, the home page popped up. Then he waited for a while, and messages came one after another until it stopped. The red icon in the upper right corner indicated that there were 8 unread messages.
Shen Yanming opened them and read them one by one. It turned out that the reason why there was a sudden power outage when he went to handle the formalities today was because a severe earthquake occurred in Su City, which directly caused a power transmission line to be interrupted.
The location of Haishi is the center of the three nearby epicenters. Fortunately, they were not launched at the same time and were at a certain distance from Haishi, so there were not too many casualties here today.
However, the Haishi Guard recommends that everyone stay outdoors as much as possible recently, because it is still unclear whether there will be large aftershocks. Moreover, for buildings that have just experienced an earthquake, professional assessments are needed before deciding whether to continue living there.
In short, it’s very troublesome.
When Shen Yanming saw the last unread message, he raised his eyebrows, as if he was a little surprised. Because this message was to notify the new guards to gather at the local guard team.
As for the time, there is no specific requirement, it just says to gather after seeing the message. I guess it is because they are not sure whether everyone can see it and when to see it.
Shen Yanming checked the personal identity information on the smart brain bracelet and found that his work unit had become the Haishi Guard. It seemed that the information entered at noon was directly uploaded to the cloud.
He checked it once and found that there was no missing information, so he activated Bi Qiaoan's smart bracelet. Then he looked carefully and found that her information was the same as his, so he hugged his wife and went to sleep with peace of mind.
As for the report, let’s talk about it after I wake up.
Shen Yanming didn't think about not going. At this time, the more you give, the more you can get.
After all, no one wants to feed someone who eats for free.
Even if they didn't need to rely on the Alliance and the Guards to survive, they both needed the Guards' armed protection, unless they hid in space from now on and no longer had contact with outsiders.
Of course, this is impossible.
Oh, I don’t want to think about it anymore. I was so sleepy that I could hardly open my eyes, but after looking at the smart bracelet for a while, I suddenly felt energetic again.
Moreover, my hearing must be too good. I can even hear the voices in the nearby tents clearly.
Fortunately, they were only talking about unimportant topics. If they had mentioned their bank card passwords or were doing sex, it would have been really embarrassing.
Since he couldn't fall asleep for a while, Shen Yanming began to close his eyes and use his consciousness to organize the supplies in the space.
They have been collecting and hoarding all the time, and have never sorted out and counted them. Shen Yanming knew that his family background was enough to support the people of a city for a year or two, but he really didn't want to cause trouble for himself and Bi Qiaoan.
Either they would be trapped in an endless hunt or be held captive by the alliance. Either way, it would be a disaster for two people who yearn for freedom, have no ambitions, and just want to live a simple life.
Shen Yanming didn't want to reveal his cards, but he had a feeling that he might not be able to escape this time.
Perhaps the consciousness used in space is a kind of mental power. Shen Yanming just counted the rice and flour and piled them together, and he felt a little sleepy. He did not force himself, and directly withdrew his consciousness and fell asleep while hugging his wife.
The next day, Shen Yanming was awakened by the noisy voices around him. He raised his left hand and glanced at the smart bracelet, which showed the time was only half past six.
Hearing his wife mutter "It's so noisy", Shen Yanming took out two earplugs from the space and gently inserted them into her ears, then changed into outer clothes and walked out of the tent.
It was already bright outside and the temperature was starting to rise. Compared to last night's cold wind, the warm sunshine felt especially comfortable on my body.
The people around were either sitting together chatting or lighting a fire to prepare a meal. Shen Yanming was a little confused. Why did they get up so early when there was nothing to do today? Could it be that he and Bi Qiaoan were really too lazy?
He walked over to the crowd and listened to their conversation for a while before realizing that they were used to sleeping in big beds at home, and felt that the tent was not only cramped but also hard, so they were not used to it.
Shen Yanming did not comment on this. He observed that among the many people around him, not all of them were wearing smart bracelets, and even if they were wearing them, they were turned off, just like he was before.
He found a crowded place, and after they finished chatting, he interrupted and said, "Have you never used your smart bracelet?"
Everyone was confused, "No, this thing is useless. I regret wearing it in the first place, and now I can't take it off even if I want to."
Seeing this, Shen Yanming said directly: "I tried to activate it last night, and then received a notification from the Qinghe Alliance. It seems that when there is no mobile phone signal, this smart brain bracelet is our only way to understand the outside world."
"Really? It has this effect? This is too amazing!" Shen Yanming's words exploded in everyone's ears like thunder, and they all showed expressions of disbelief.
Shen Yanming nodded, "There's no need for me to lie to you. This is something that is very easy to verify. You can find out by turning on the smart bracelet."
Yes, there is no harm in opening it.
So everyone around quickly pressed the power button, and within two minutes, they received messages one after another.
Shen Yanming was watching from the side, and he found that the information everyone received was somewhat different from his.
For example, there was no message in their mailbox asking new security guards to report.
