Chapter 6 Doomsday Warning

Over the course of several days, the two men collected 1,600 liters of gasoline and 800 liters of diesel.

As for cars, Shen Qianxun only bought a 6-seater van. Faced with the torrential rain that exceeded expectations, after one night, many places were directly flooded to the second floor. There were countless scrapped cars in the 4S shops, which was convenient for her to buy for free. Usually 4S shops are equipped with gasoline and diesel, so she can collect another wave by the way.

At 7:20 am on July 25, 869 of the Astral Calendar, there were less than 15 hours left until the end of the world.

Just today, the weather forecast issued a red alert for high temperatures and news of heavy rain in the evening. Typhoon "Fukumaru" is about to land in coastal cities around 10 o'clock tonight.

People in the inland areas are already accustomed to the frequent rainstorms in summer, which come and go quickly. However, they did not know that this rainstorm would turn into a torrential downpour lasting for half a month, and eventually develop into a global flood. Typhoon "Fukumaru" would also cause a devastating blow to coastal cities.

During this period, the two went out to purchase supplies during the day, returned home at night to collect water for daily use, prepared large portions of meals at one time, and packed them into plastic boxes. They were also busy in the rest of the time, entering the space to cultivate the black soil, plant, and install sprinklers. They were busy until two or three in the morning every day without feeling tired.

Now the space is not even full of supplies in a building, but looking at the neatly arranged supplies and the sown black soil, the panic and powerlessness of the previous life are gone.

Facing the impending natural disaster and the end of the world, Shen Qianxun felt a calmness he had never felt before, not excited, not afraid, not excited, and not sad.

After breakfast, Shen Qianxun, who was dressed up carefully, turned into an alley. Chen Dabao's height was too obvious, so he didn't let her accompany him. He bought a data card and a second-hand mobile phone, and anonymously published a doomsday warning.

She has no ability to save this world on the verge of collapse, and is afraid of being controlled by others.

But when facing fellow countrymen who share the same roots, neither of them can turn a blind eye.

After sending the warning letter, Shen Qianxun immediately threw his phone into the space without looking at the news on the Internet. After reuniting with Chen Dabao, he took the remaining 20,000 yuan in cash and leisurely walked on the bustling street to choose ingredients for the iron pot stew for lunch.

After returning to the community, the two of them filled their hands with the last batch of express deliveries, mostly snacks and tissues, and walked towards the apartment building. On the way, they met two families next door and opposite.

"Xiao Xun, Xiao Chen, why are you back so early today?" Grandma Deng from 1601 opposite greeted them warmly.

Shen Qianxun smiled and replied: “I’ll eat at home at noon today, and I have to go out to work part-time in the afternoon.”

Grandma Deng smiled kindly and said, "My dear child, your hard work will always be rewarded, and everything will be fine."

The grandson Lin Yu beside him stood on tiptoe and said, "Sister Xiaoxun, I'll get some for you."

Shen Qianxun was not polite and bent down, “Thank you, Xiaoya, sister will treat you to candy later.”

Lin Yu is 10 years old. Her mother has become insane and mentally unstable, and her father ran away from home, leaving her elderly grandmother to take care of her daughter and grandson.

Then a soft whisper sounded, "Sister Xiaoxun, I'll get some for you too."

After Xu Xiaoyue finished speaking, she reached out and took a large bag of vegetables and fruits.

"Thank you, Xiaoyue. I'll pick out some snacks you like later."

Xu Xiaoyue shook her head and walked in front holding the bag.

Wang Qingfen held her 8-year-old grandson Xu Guangyao's hand and scanned them back and forth.

During this period, the two of them went out early and came back late, and no one knew what they were busy with. They made major renovations to the doors and windows of their home. When asked, they said it was unsafe for two girls to live there, so they did the renovations after obtaining the landlord's consent.

Wang Qingfen scoffed at this. In her opinion, it was not worth it at all to waste money on decorating the house for the landlord.

"Xiao Xun, you should eat less snacks. You're an orphan, so don't waste the country's money on useless things. No man will want you if you spend money so lavishly."

She had found out a long time ago that as an orphan, Shen Qianxun could receive a national subsidy of 600 yuan per month. Since the other party was not a boy, this money seemed to be a waste to her.

Shen Qianxun was very familiar with Wang Qingfen, who lived next door. She loved to take advantage of others and often took the car downstairs to send her grandson to school. If other families had something delicious to eat, she would bring her grandson to their house and feed the food to her grandson with her own hands.

She is also extremely patriarchal. Compared with her grandson Xu Guangyao who often wears new clothes, her 14-year-old granddaughter Xu Xiaoyue is less than 1.5 meters tall, often wears clothes that are washed white, and is thin and sallow. Wang Qingfen sometimes insults her, and sometimes beats her, and she often has scars on her body.

Shen Qianxun, who had been struggling in the apocalypse for 12 years, did not spoil her. "Auntie Wang, you won't die without a man. Be careful of your tongue if you talk too much."

“You…” Wang Qingfen pointed at Shen Qianxun and cursed, “No wonder your family doesn’t want you, you bitch, if it were me, I would just throw you into the water and drown you.”

Shen Qianxun immediately retorted, “Aunt Wang, I didn’t realize that you have killed someone. I will tell the police uncle later.”

Wang Qingfen was so angry that she raised her hand, and Xu Guangyao swung his fist and was about to hit Shen Qianxun.

"What are you doing? Do you want to fight?" Chen Dabao shouted, put down the package, rubbed his hands, and walked towards the old man and the child.

"You, you, you, hitting someone is against the law." Wang Qingfen took her grandson and retreated. Facing the tall and strong Chen Dabao, the grandfather and grandson had lost their previous arrogance.

“You still know that beating people is against the law? If you continue to force Shen Qianxun, I will deal with you sooner or later.”

With a "ding~" sound, a group of people walked into the elevator one after another, but Wang Qingfen and her grandchildren did not follow.

The little incident just now did not affect the casual chat among the few people, and Xu Xiaoyue's face showed a rare relaxation.

Back on the 16th floor, Shen Qianxun opened a box of snacks and let the two children choose.

"Sister, I don't want it. There are still a lot of snacks at home, and I'm teething recently."

Lin Yu covered his mouth and laughed, without waiting for Shen Qianxun to respond, he took his grandmother's hand and left.

Xu Xiaoyue waved her hands repeatedly, “Sister Xiaoxun, I don’t want it either.” After speaking, she walked towards the door, and Shen Qianxun quickly called her to stop.

"Then keep it here with Sister Xun first. Come find me when you want to eat it later."

Xu Xiaoyue stood at the door and shook her head slightly.

Shen Qianxun knew that even if she gave it to her now, Wang Qingfen would snatch it away and give it to her precious grandson. This happened more than once.

Before this, a neighbor felt sorry for Xu Xiaoyue and gave her food in private, but as soon as she entered the house, she would be searched by Wang Qingfen.

Not long after Shen Qianxun entered the house, Wang Qingfen, with a cold face and gnashing teeth, led the equally angry Xu Guangyao home.
