After chatting with Green Ivy for a while, Qin Bai fell asleep.
The next day, Qin Bai got up and fed the husky some dog food. Then he took out a carton of pure milk, a piece of bread, and a pure meat sausage, which solved the breakfast problem.
"Sister Lu, it's me."
Qin Bai knocked on Sister Lu's door, but strangely, Sister Lu, who usually opened the door quickly, didn't make a sound this time.
Qin Bai was startled, thinking that something had happened to Sister Lu.
Just as he was thinking of calling Zeng Qiangguo over, the door was opened.
Lu Jie was seen clutching her stomach, looking like she was in a lot of pain.
"Sister Lu, what's wrong?"
Qin Bai went inside and hurriedly asked.
Xia Lulu seemed a little embarrassed to talk about it, and only said that her stomach was a little uncomfortable.
Qin Bai believed it, but not long after, while he was playing with the little one, Xia Lulu suddenly clutched her stomach and fell to the ground, cold sweat beading on her forehead.
Even Qin Bai, who was slow to realize, understood that Lu Jie's stomachache was not ordinary.
Under his questioning, Sister Lu finally revealed the truth.
She didn't have a stomachache, but rather menstrual cramps.
When she uttered that word, even the roots of her ears turned red, and she didn't dare to look at Qin Bai at all.
Qin Bai was also dumbfounded. How could menstrual cramps be treated?
"If we had brown sugar water, it would be better, but we've run out of brown sugar at home."
Xia Lulu said, enduring the pain.
"Sister Lu, wait a minute, I think I have some brown sugar over there."
Qin Bai's space is filled with all kinds of sugar, not just brown sugar.
He quickly went back, pretending to bring back brown sugar from the house, and made Xia Lulu a cup of brown sugar water.
After drinking some, she felt better and sat down on the sofa with Qin Bai's help.
"Qin Bai, thank you so much. But how come you have brown sugar at home?"
Xia Lulu's expression was a little strange. White sugar is the kind of sugar that is normally used at home, but brown sugar is something that is almost exclusively used by women.
Xia Lulu remembered very clearly that Qin Bai was single and did not have a girlfriend.
I had heard before that he liked a girl, but it seems that nothing came of it.
In that instant, Qin Bai's mind raced, and he immediately came up with a reason.
"Oh, that's how it is. I liked to drink brown sugar water when I was a child, and I still have this habit now that I'm older. I always keep some brown sugar at home."
This was a good reason, and Xia Lulu had no doubts.
"Sister Lu, don't go out these days unless you have to. A monster called an Ice Corpse has appeared outside..."
Qin Bai briefly explained the situation to Xia Lulu, who was quite shocked.
"An ice corpse? A dead corpse can move on its own? This..."
If Qin Bai hadn't told her these things, she would never have believed that something like an ice corpse could exist in the world.
"The world has changed now, and we don't know what will happen in the future. Sister Lu, you should be careful."
Xia Lulu nodded heavily. She might not trust others, but she would remember Qin Bai's words.
Without Qin Bai, she would probably have starved to death long ago and wouldn't have survived until now.
Just as Qin Bai was about to go back, Xia Lulu seemed to have thought of something and said, "Today I found an old-fashioned radio in a corner of the house. There was still a little bit of residual electricity in it, so I tried it out, and I didn't expect it to still work."
"Just then, someone inside made a sound. After listening for a while, I realized that the country had set up some shelters outside the city. If we went there, we could receive help from the country."
refuge?
Qin Bai frowned slightly and asked, "Where's the radio?"
Xia Lulu brought the radio over; it was indeed a very old model. As soon as she turned it on, a buzzing sound came from inside.
"As instructed by higher authorities, all citizens who hear this broadcast should immediately proceed to the outskirts of the city. Numerous shelters have been established there. You need not worry about food or safety; the nation will protect you in every way..."
What follows is a series of repetitive phrases, but these phrases are very appealing to many people.
Think about it, when there's not much food left, hearing this news would make anyone want to go there.
However, Qin Bai found something strange: why wasn't this kind of news released at the beginning, but only at this time?
Perhaps the country initially thought that it could definitely weather this disaster, but unfortunately, it did not expect that the disaster would be so severe, to the point that there was no way to overcome it.
Otherwise, the government wouldn't have built shelters, but...
Are the shelters real?
It's important to understand that the majority of people are still alive. Given the size of the country, even if some people die, there will still be nearly a billion people alive.
How can a country build so many shelters to house nearly a billion people and still provide enough food?
"No, there's no need to worry about food. After all, the country has plenty of grain reserves. It's just that feeding so many people would consume an astronomical amount of food every day."
Qin Bai frowned, unsure whether the shelter was real or not.
But for many people, regardless of whether it's true or not, they still want to go and see.
If that's true, then the shelter is the last place they can go.
"Sister Lu, what do you think?"
Qin Bai asked.
"If it weren't for your help, Qin Bai, I would have gone there as soon as I heard the news, but now, I won't go."
Xia Lulu said.
Do you think this news is true?
Xia Lulu pondered for a moment and said, "I don't know, but regardless of whether the news is true or not, a lot of people will definitely go there. Whether it's true or false, the news will probably spread very soon."
Qin Bai nodded, "That's true."
If one loses in the struggle against Lin Zhao, then going to the refuge might not be a bad idea.
When Qin Bai returned home, he took out his phone and went online to see if anyone knew anything about the shelter.
Strangely, after browsing around, he couldn't find any posts related to the refuge.
It was as if no one knew about the shelter at all.
Thinking of this, Qin Bai took the initiative to post a message about the shelter.
However……
His posts couldn't be published at all; it seemed like any posts related to shelters were being blocked.
Qin Bai's expression changed, avoiding all questions!
He wasn't sure whether this was government intervention or someone deliberately causing trouble, but the current situation at the shelter certainly had serious problems.
However, Qin Bai did not give up. He found Green Ivy again and asked her if she knew about the shelter.
This time, the message "Shelter" was successfully sent, and he also saw the message from Green Ivy Sister.
