On April 2nd, Banxia and her companion invited Su Yao's family and Cai Yuan's family, who had just moved to Miaomiao Mountain, to go shopping at the supermarket. They exchanged all the tens of thousands of yuan they had left for supplies, leaving nothing behind.

April 3rd.

Guo Jia released a major announcement: "It is reported that two meteorites, each approximately fifty kilometers in diameter, will collide on April 8th in the skies above Water Blue Star. The collision will create a massive meteor shower carrying unknown radiation, which will have a profound impact on all life on Water Blue Star..."

It seems that Guo Jia did indeed detect the meteorite shower.

Banxia clicked on the comments below the news article.

"What? Wasn't the apocalypse already over?"

"No wonder Guo Jia kept encouraging us to live at the base. Luckily, I didn't go home on the 1st. I'm grateful to Guo Jia and my grandfather for stopping me!"

"I just want to ask, is it still possible to sign up for the training base now?"

"Doesn't Baidu say that meteorite radiation is generally harmless to the human body?"

"Upstairs, I suggest you look up how the dinosaurs became extinct!"

"Everyone, I can't bear the suffering of the apocalypse, I'm going first!"

Banxia scrolled to a comment that seemed to suggest suicide, and her hand paused slightly.

This is not the first case of suicide; many people commit suicide during periods of extreme cold, and there was even one case in the Miaomiaoshan villa area.

She was a young mother whose baby was weak and did not survive the second month of the extreme cold. She couldn't bear to see her child alone, so she went with him.

Nanxing took the phone from her and tossed it aside, then quietly changed the subject: "Honey, isn't your hair a bit blocking your eyes? How about I cut it shorter for you?"

Six months after her rebirth, her hair had only grown five or six centimeters, but it was of very good quality, jet black and shiny.

Banxia didn't refuse the man's kindness. She took out a set of hairdressing tools from her space and handed them over: "Just cut the front. I want to grow my hair long."

Long hair uses a lot of water, but short hair is difficult to manage.

Well, mainly because she likes long hair!

Nanxing pulled her to sit down at the dressing table and quickly and steadily styled her hair, doing a job that was no less impressive than those high-priced hairdressers.

Banxia wasn't surprised at all, after all, he had cut her hair quite a few times.

After Nanxing finished cutting her hair, he asked, "Wife, can you cut my hair too? Just a buzz cut will do."

After getting their hair cut, the two of them, carrying two packets of homemade hot pot base, several large bags of shrimp dumplings, a bag of bamboo shoots, and a bag of apples, knocked on the door of Su Yao's house next door.

They arranged to have hot pot together with Su Yaojia and Cai Yuanjia at noon today. Su Yaojia provided water, coal, dipping sauce, meat, and cabbage, while Cai Yuanjia provided drinks, seafood, staple food, mushrooms, and potatoes. None of the three families would take advantage of the others.

When they arrived, Cai Yuan and Zhao Xuan were already there, and the two were helping to clean the ingredients.

Banxia and Nanxing quickly washed their hands and went to help.

Cai Yuan asked Nanxing, "Nanxing, has Han Biao contacted you?"

Nanxing soaked the bean sprouts in water and shook her head: "No, maybe the signal is bad."

Today the temperature rose to zero degrees Celsius, but water, electricity, and gas are still out of service, and the internet is intermittent, so it's normal to be unable to make contact.

Su Yao picked up the conversation: "Fortunately, there was only one heavy snowfall a few months ago, otherwise, once the temperature rises, the snow would melt and cause flooding."

Banxia thought to herself, "No, it's going to be extremely hot soon. During the hottest time, the most scarce resource is water. If there are floods, maybe a few more people can survive!"

Su Yao's kitchen is large, and with seven adults working together, the dishes were quickly prepared and served.

There are two types of soup bases: half spicy and half mushroom soup.

Cai Yuan stuffed a mouthful of spicy beef: "Awesome! Your brother Xuan and I haven't had hot pot for three months!"

It wasn't that he and Zhao Xuan didn't have hot pot base stocked up, but rather that they dared not eat it openly. Who knew if the smell would attract the covetous eyes of some people with ulterior motives?

This is also why he sought help to move to the Miaomiao Mountain villa area. With Nanxing and Su Yao by his side, it was much better than him and Zhao Xuan fighting alone!

Nanxing smiled and said, "Then Yuan-ge and Xuan-ge, you should eat more."

He and Banxia would have hot pot in the space every few days, and they would also get together with Su Yao's family of three to have hot pot once a month on the fifteenth of the month, so they didn't crave it.

Su Yao, wanting to build a good relationship with Cai Yuan and Xuan Ge, said very enthusiastically, "Brother Yuan, Brother Xuan, there's also some food for you. Eat as much as you like, don't be shy!"

They're all in the same neighborhood, so if zombies really do appear in the future, they'll definitely have to cooperate with each other.

All three parties were keen to build good relations, so the meal was very enjoyable.

Finally, before parting ways, they even had a frank discussion about the cooperation and reached an agreement in a very pleasant manner.

On April 4th, the temperature rose to ten degrees Celsius, and all the ice on the surface of the soil melted into water. Guo Jia forcibly ordered the people of all coastal provinces and cities to relocate to inland areas and collected large quantities of soil resources.

On April 5th, the temperature rose to 15 degrees Celsius. The government announced that the purchase limit for basic survival supplies would be increased tenfold, and the price would be reduced to one-tenth of the pre-apocalyptic level. People were encouraged to hoard survival resources and uproot the flowers, plants, and trees around their homes.

Banxia and Nanxing didn't want to compete with ordinary people for life-saving supplies, so they didn't go to the supermarket. Instead, they stayed at home, sawed the trees they had cut down in the winter into sections, and then moved them to the underground parking lot.

On April 6, the temperature rose to 20 degrees Celsius, and people's panic reached its peak. They frantically hoarded supplies, causing a lot of bloodshed. Water was once sold at exorbitant prices, but it was still in short supply.

On April 7, the temperature rose to 25 degrees Celsius, and relevant departments announced the total number of deaths during the extreme cold period: 0.6 billion.
