Chapter 31 Doomsday Talk

Ye Xin nodded: "Indeed! It seems that there are quite a few people who can open locks."

Jiang Chao's arrival made the three families aware of the crisis.

Ye Xin had always believed that this was just a natural disaster. Even though people were starving, it was not the time to become heartbroken and lose their minds.

Jiang Chao's actions today taught her a lesson: those who have not lost their minds are people with conscience!

For those who have never had a conscience, they can lose their reason at any time!

If Su Jing had not been at her house today, she would have probably been killed by Jiang Chao!

Considering the convenience of communication between the families, Ye Xin took out a few walkie-talkies: "I found this when I was looking for supplies. It's the latest model, and the maximum communication distance is five kilometers."

As he spoke, he handed two to Bai Bing. Su Jing had already given one, so he gave Bai Bing two more so that they could contact each other more easily.

This leaves her with only four walkie-talkies left.

Ye Xin explained: "We can always contact each other if something happens in the future, even when we are out looking for supplies. If we are close, we can support each other."

Su Jing didn't seem to be too upset when she held the walkie-talkie, but it was different for Bai Bing and his son.

After all, we are not close friends, and now that I have accepted such a big gift, I feel a little guilty.

"Then let me put it this way, Sister Xin. From now on, as long as you need anything, I, Bai Bing, will do my best to help you!"

"But, Sister Xin, are you really planning to move away and never come back?"

Ye Xinchong smiled at him but said nothing. Who can predict what will happen in the future?

Ye Xin didn't feel sorry for these walkie-talkies as they were put to good use.

Things are dead, but people are alive. She has her own constant troubles, and she might need Bai Bing and Su Jing someday!

Although she wants to stay out of trouble, it seems that this is not easy to achieve at the moment.

Fortunately, Su Jing got rid of Jiang Chao, and Bai Bing's family seemed to be able to get along well. All this was beyond her expectations.

After all this trouble, it was already very stressful to go to the hospital.

Ye Xin still decided to go out, find a deserted place to release Ye's father, then take out the assault boat and speed up!

The pharmacy was the first to be hit. Ye's father stayed behind to tidy it up while Ye Xin ran upstairs. Those medical devices could not be left out!

Ultrasound machines, X-ray machines, test kits, blood pressure monitors, oxygen machines, oxygen cylinders, stretchers, and emergency beds were all thrown into the space.

In order to save time, Ye Xin no longer had the chance to sort them and just threw them in first.

By the time she had finished collecting the supplies upstairs, the medicines in the pharmacy had already been sorted out by Ye's father and filled more than a dozen large bags!

Ye Xin collected them all, then released the assault boat towards Jinxiu Garden. After meeting up with Su Jing, she went to the mall without delay!

In order to keep each other company that night, Su Jing's assault boat did not increase the horsepower, but followed Ye Xin's rubber boat not too close or too far.

Watching Mo Pengfei and another man rowing, Su Jing looked thoughtful: When will this natural disaster be over?

When they arrived at the mall, the queue had stretched from the fourth floor to the water surface, and even the water surface was filled with people.

Some people were lying in the rain holding onto door panels, some were paddling in small boats, and some, like Ye Xin, were paddling in rubber boats.

Su Jing's assault boat immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"What a great deal! If I had a raft, why would I have been hungry for so long?"

"That's right! I don't know which neighborhood it's from. It would be great if I could borrow it to use!"

Bai Bing and her father kept a close eye on those who were plotting against them.

When they were waiting in line on the second floor, Bai Yuanshan said to Su Jing and Bai Bing, "You guys go in and do your shopping. I'll stay here to watch the Charge Boat. It doesn't look peaceful here!"

"Ye Xin, drag your rubber boat over here, I'll help you watch it. I'll go in after you finish shopping."

Ye Xin didn't hesitate to drag the rubber boat onto the assault boat and followed his father into the mall to queue up.

There were not only people queuing in the mall, but also policemen patrolling with real guns in their hands.

There are also some on the water, but much less than in the shopping malls.

Seeing this, Ye Xin felt more at ease. At least it could scare off some restless people.

Mo Pengfei greeted a police officer: "Thank you for your hard work! You're out working so soon."

The policeman waved at him and said, "There's nothing we can do. The worse the environment gets, the more we need to improve public security."

As he spoke, he approached Mo Pengfei and whispered, "Don't worry, buy some food first."

Before anyone could react, he had already walked away.

Ye Xin looked at his back as he walked away with the gun in hand, and thought: This guy should know something, and he has a good relationship with Mo Pengfei.

Mo Pengfei was stunned for a moment, and then quietly told Ye Xin and Su Jing what the policeman said.

Although he didn't understand what this meant, since someone reminded him, he should take it seriously.

At four o'clock in the morning, they finally lined up on the fourth floor, and the shopping mall was about a hundred meters ahead.

Suddenly there was a commotion ahead, with men roaring and women crying, all mixing together.

Mixed in was the sound of the staff's loudspeaker.

After listening for a long time, Ye Xin finally understood what was going on.

It seemed that the food inside was gone, so the staff guided them to buy bulk food, saying that it was much cheaper.

Normal rice costs 38 yuan per pound, which is ten times more expensive than usual! People are complaining, but they can't refuse it. Who wants to wait for the rice to cook at home?

Hearing that the loose rice was only 10 yuan per pound, everyone rushed to buy it.

But there is a purchase limit, each person can only take one bag, which is packed in a convenient bag and each bag only weighs 3 kilograms.

Suddenly, someone noticed something was wrong: "Huh? This rice seems different from ordinary rice."

After her reminder, many people noticed the abnormality of rice.

Normal rice is crystal clear and full of rice fragrance. This rice is not only dull in color, but also not smooth to the touch, not to mention the rice fragrance.

Someone shouted, "This rice is wrong! This is not fresh rice. This is rice that was taken out of the flood and dried!"

"Look at the color, and then taste the flavor."

As soon as this person spoke, he immediately attracted everyone's recognition.

"That's right! If you don't have food, don't sell it. Why sell us rice like this? There are so many dead bodies in the flood! What if you get sick after eating this kind of rice?"

"That's right! Where are our reserve rations? If we don't distribute them now, when will we need them?"

"That's right! The reserve food should be enough for us to eat for at least two years, right? Why sell us food like this?"

"That's right! Even if the food reserves in City A are flooded, the country is so big, can't we transfer food from other places?"

The people's emotions were growing more and more intense, and it seemed that a riot was about to break out. The police fired into the air and barely suppressed the riot which had not yet taken shape.

Suddenly a man said, "Isn't the end of the world really coming? If not, why would we have to eat this kind of food?"

Someone turned around and looked at him: "You've read too many novels! It's just a rain, what's the big deal?"

The man shook his head: "No! When have you ever seen such heavy rain? Such strong wind? If it's not the same in other places, why hasn't there been any relief food?"
