Chapter 37 Busy
When Ji Zai rode his electric scooter back to the warehouse.
They encountered zombies at the gate next to the warehouse.
She was the same.
After moving the zombies a certain distance away from the school, set them on fire.
Then close the door again.
A fire broke out.
The raging flames blotted out the sky and the sun.
When Ji Zai returned to the warehouse, he saw that the big truck was still there.
When Nan Yao saw her return, he quickly went up to her and pulled her into the car. "Where have you been? Why did it take you so long? It took you an hour in total."
Ji Zai was shoved into the back of the car.
The car left the warehouse.
Looking further, you can see that the truck is full of grain.
Liang Qiyue was dizzy and lightheaded from overworking the grain transport. After drinking some water, she noticed Ji Zai's solemn expression.
She was startled, and just as she was about to ask something, she suddenly saw thick smoke.
His expression changed drastically. "What's going on! Why is there suddenly so much smoke? Could it be that something spontaneously combusted because of the hot weather?!"
"It didn't spontaneously combust."
After Liang Qiyue finished speaking, she saw Ji Zai also looking towards the place with thick smoke.
She calmly stated, "I started this fire."
The scene was stunned.
But looking at Ji Zai, they couldn't say a word.
Ji Zai's expression at this moment was too serious and too terrifying, and he exuded an oppressive aura that was impossible to resist.
It was terrifying to watch.
Lin Langyi was not familiar with Ji Zai.
But I've never seen her like this before.
Ugly, calm, like a storm about to break out.
She and her friend exchanged a glance.
Finally, he couldn't hold back any longer. "Alliance Leader, what did you see that made you so heartless as to set fire to the place?"
Ji Zai remained silent for a moment, then looked at the people in the car.
He paused, then added, "Outside Ningda University, it's teeming with zombies, a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. We can't get out."
Ji Zai looked at them, but ultimately dared not tell them what he had seen.
That's terrifying.
Ningda University turns out to be one of the zombie laboratories.
No wonder there are zombies at the entrance.
If it weren't for that researcher named Lao Bai, they would have been swept away by the sea of corpses long ago.
Upon hearing this, everyone present changed their expressions drastically.
Lin Lang composed himself and said, "It's alright. If we can't get out, we can't. As long as we stay at school, we should be able to survive."
Now that it's the end of the world, every extra day you live is a bonus.
Ji Zai gazed at the distant smoke, his eyes dark and unfathomable.
When I returned to the dormitory area, Ouyang Yi was already waiting at the main gate.
Because they haven't come back yet.
She was a little worried, so she stood guard at the door.
I was relieved to see them return.
He quickly opened the door and said, "Come in quickly, I'll lock the door."
The door was closed.
Because of what just happened, Ji Zai felt insecure.
She always felt that the dormitory door was too loose.
Once the zombies arrive, we're doomed.
We'll find some time to reinforce it.
Anyway, the equipment I got from the lab last time is still here.
After closing the door.
Ji Zai saw the facial recognition device next to her. This thing was really troublesome. Their dormitory area consisted of five buildings, each with a dormitory manager downstairs.
The facial recognition device is only in the girls' dormitory area; anyone can step over it.
This is very detrimental to the current security situation in the dormitory.
She got out of the car and asked, "What about the steel pipes left over from last time?"
Before Ouyang Yi could answer the question, Liang Qiyue jumped down and said, "Ji Zai, do you need steel pipes? We moved a lot this time, and I was thinking of using them to make weapons or something, but I didn't expect you to need them."
Ji Zai looked back and saw that under the food that was stuffed to the brim was a densely packed array of steel pipes.
She was delighted. "Well done! I remember we have some electrical engineering students in our dorm. Let's ask them to come and build a gate to fill the gap in this facial recognition system. Otherwise, I always feel uneasy."
"That's easy."
Liang Qiyue hurriedly went to call the classmate from the same major who had worked on the microgrid project last time.
Soon, they all arrived.
There are quite a few people.
The tools were also taken from the storage room.
Everything is ready.
Xu Ran was one of the girls who helped Ji Zai build the microgrid project last time. Seeing these steel pipes, she nodded and said, "Leave the rest to me. We have studied welding extensively and will definitely be able to complete the task successfully."
"Alright, the rest of you are tired, go back and rest. If you can still lend a hand, go back and get some ice water for these technicians. Thank you for your hard work, Xu Ran."
Xu Ran shook his head, "Not at all, it's the Alliance Leader who has worked hard."
Because everyone is free now.
So many people volunteered to help them get ice water.
After all, dormitory safety is a matter that cannot be taken lightly for even a moment.
Ouyang Yi handed Ji Zai a glass of water and said, "Because we've unlocked all the dormitory areas, we've acquired a lot of buckets and basins. Now that the weather is getting hotter, I'm worried that we might have trouble getting water for daily use."
"So we brought back all the buckets and basins to fill with water."
Their current daily water supply comes from fire hydrants... but that's not important. What's important is that they need to find a way to store water.
It's too hot.
They were afraid the water would evaporate.
The place where water is stored must be cool enough, otherwise it will evaporate.
That's their dormitory building.
Except for the electricity there, everything else is evaporating.
But there's nothing we can do about it.
Fire hydrants are not a panacea.
The city has been without water and electricity for so long.
It's amazing that it's lasted this long.
Ji Zai thought for a moment, "Let's put the water on the first and second floors, and also fill up the dormitory's water tank. Hopefully, we can get through this scorching sun."
Ouyang Yi remained silent and then went to make arrangements.
The dormitory had only been quiet for a few days.
I'm busy again.
The buckets from all four dormitories combined could fill the entire dormitory building.
They used water pipes to store water.
They were placed in four girls' dormitory buildings.
Because it uses a water pipe, there's no need to carry it around. Just put the bucket in the room, fill it with water, and that's it.
Those who have plastic wrap will also use it to cover the container.
If not, just cover it with a basin.
After addressing the water issue, the remaining problem was the human element.
She arrived at Building No. 3 and saw Qing Shuang.
Su Dan is treating them.
Upon seeing her arrive, he quickly stood up and said, "Alliance Leader."
Ji Zai nodded. "Now, in the entire girls' area, besides the 114 girls in our dormitory, how many are left?"
Su Dan wiped the sweat from his forehead and frowned. "30 in Building 5, 14 in Building 3, 21 in Building 2, and 40 in Building 1, for a total of 105."
This number still far exceeds what was recorded in historical records.
If it were only a dozen or so, she would have gritted her teeth and accepted them, but she didn't expect it to be 105.
That's a really huge number.
Ji Zai said with a headache, "Ah...so many people."
Upon hearing this, Su Dan chuckled awkwardly, "It is indeed a bit much, but at least it's a human life. Giving him a drink of water is acceptable."
Ji Zai rolled his eyes. "Easy for you to say. We don't have much water left either. If we use up all the water in the fire hydrants, then we'll really be out of water."
Su Dan didn't say much.
She could only hope to save their lives.
It's unlikely that someone would sacrifice their own interests to save others.
Even so, Su Dan still felt sorry for these 105 people; they were quite unlucky not to have met someone like Ji Zai.
Qing Shuang seemed to have noticed their hesitation as well.
Her throat felt better after drinking the ice water.
"Help us, I have lots of medicine..."
"I know where I can get purified water..."
Upon hearing this, Ji Zai looked over. "Pure water? From outside?"
"Inside the dormitory."
“I used to work part-time at the water station, so I know that they have a designated storage room every time they deliver water.”
Qing Shuang's lips were turning white, due to being hungry for too long and dehydrated.
She looked at Ji Zai pleadingly.
