Chapter 3 Wandering Alone in the Ruins 2

Qiao took a quick look and only saw six boxes of instant noodles and two boxes of mineral water under the bed, nothing else.

Qiao Ling put away the instant noodles and mineral water. Seeing that the computer was still intact, she put it away as well. Qiao Ling was ready to leave. She now had to find a place to hide.

Just as Qiao Ling was about to go out, he suddenly heard a very loud roar coming from outside, and the ground shook a few times.

Qiao Ling turned off the flashlight and hid directly under the single bed in the room.

Soon, Qiao Ling, who was hiding in the darkness, heard a very noisy noise, as if a particularly heavy vehicle was passing by, which felt a bit like a tank, and there were also sounds of explosions nearby.

"Kill it! Kill it! There it is!"

"Chase him! Chase him!"

"There! There! Hit!" someone shouted loudly.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Continuous explosions sounded nearby, and Qiao Ling heard the sound of the roof collapsing. Fortunately, the bunk bed was sturdy and the sound was not broken through.

But now Qiao Ling didn't dare to move. She saw a thick, wet claw that fell to the side of the bed. It looked like an octopus's claw, but it was much thicker than a pillar. There was a sticky green liquid flowing on it, and the liquid gave off a fishy smell.

The distance was too close. If it retreated one meter more, it would step on her face.

There was another explosion, this time right next to Qiao Ling's ear. She only felt a roar in her ear, and then she could hear no sound.

The roof was gone and half of the bed board had fallen off. She huddled in the corner of the bed, watching the thick claw gradually move away from her sight.

Her whole body relaxed suddenly, and then she knew nothing.

When Qiao Ling woke up again, it was pitch black and silent all around, as if he had arrived at an isolated island with no world in sight.

It is clearly summer now, and every summer there are sounds of insects chirping and birds singing everywhere, but now the silence around us is a little scary.

Qiao Ling moved his stiff body. This body was too weak and was actually knocked unconscious by the explosion.

Qiao Ling didn't move now. She didn't know what was going on outside. It was obviously night time now, and her place was still a blind spot, so it was relatively safe.

Now is not the best time to act because it is too dark around and there is really nothing to see.

If she went out with a flashlight, it would be too obvious. She was really afraid of running into patrolmen, and she might be shot.

Qiao Ling maintained this state until the early morning of the next day. She didn't know what time it was. When she saw that it was getting a little light, she eagerly crawled out from under the bed.

The surrounding area is now in ruins, and the only convenience store is in tatters.

Qiao Ling stood up and shook her body three times. Then she remembered something. It seemed that she had not eaten any food since she ate a bun the day she woke up, the night before yesterday, yesterday, and until now.

She quickly took out the paper bag containing the buns, grabbed one of the buns, and stuffed it into her mouth without caring whether her hands were clean or not. Only after she had eaten two buns and drank a bottle of water did she feel like she was alive again.

She moved slowly to the side. Although she had eaten the buns, her strength could not be restored all at once. She wanted to find a main road where there were fewer debris and at least she would not stumble as she did now.

Looking up into the distance, the power grid in the city center was flickering, and from afar I could see the octopus-like creature lying on the power grid. I definitely couldn't go to the city center now, as going there would be like delivering food.

As for the air-raid shelter, she had no idea where it was, and she didn't have a survival card, so it was naturally impossible for her to go to the air-raid shelter.

Qiao Ling walked aimlessly. It was so sad that she didn't have a place to stay in such a big city.

I don't know how long I walked aimlessly, the system reminded me, "We are now at the school gate, would you like to sign in?"

The corner of Qiao Ling's mouth twitched. The whole city was about to be destroyed, so what was the use of the school?

However, since the system has reminded her, she might as well sign in.

“Sign in!”

"Ding! Get a school map and a warm school meal!"

Qiao Ling directly grabbed the map in the air, but the map turned into a wisp of golden light and entered her body.

Qiao Ling felt that her brain was like a computer. She actually saw the floor plan of the entire school. The surface buildings of the school were already in ruins, but what she didn't expect was that there was a complete basement closest to her.

Moreover, the entrance was not far from where she was standing. Qiao Ling could feel her own weakness at this moment. She needed a place to have a good rest and adjust her physical condition. Otherwise, in her current state, she probably would not survive for more than a week.

Qiao Ling put the supplementary meal into the storage bag and went straight to the entrance of the basement.

This school is both an elementary and a middle school. She has been here before. The entrance to the basement happens to be near the cafeteria. She is familiar with the cafeteria and she would occasionally go there to eat.

The entrance to the basement was just behind the cafeteria. What surprised Qiao Ling was that the entrance was not buried. She opened the entrance directly and found a staircase leading diagonally downward. She walked down with a flashlight.

With the help of the map, she easily found the power switch in the basement. What surprised her was that the power grid in the basement was independent and the lights could still be turned on.

The basement is quite large, about the size of three or four classrooms. Some ingredients needed in the kitchen are stored very close to the stairs.

The most numerous items were neatly arranged bags of flour and rice, probably about thirty bags of each.

Qiao Ling went back and closed the entrance door. She stuck a stick into the door, so it would not be easy for others to open it from the outside.

After all, she decided to hide in this basement for the next period of time. The school above had been bombed before, but this basement was not affected at all. It was still strong enough.

Qiao Ling looked around the entire basement. Flour and rice were placed near the entrance. There was also a shelf next to it with a dozen fennel plants, a basket of eggplants, a basket of beans, two bags of potatoes, and some garlic, onion, ginger and other things. However, they were all a little wilted and did not look so fresh.

Qiao Ling directly put all the vegetables into the storage bag. Even if these vegetables were not fresh, they were still edible, so she didn’t mind.

You know, her storage bag can keep vegetables fresh. Once you put the vegetables in it, they will not rot. So many vegetables are enough for her to eat for a while.
