Chapter 12: Are copycat phones awesome?



The first video that caught my eye was a metropolis with heavy traffic and countless pedestrians.

The author of the video specializes in exploring the heartwarming stories in the small corners of big cities. The entire video has no advertisements or recommendations, and simply shares the warmth of humanity.

A vague and thin figure gradually emerged in Liu Yu's mind, a strange girl whose appearance she could not remember clearly.

The girl's dying voice faintly rang in her ears.

"I still have... half a pack of biscuits and a piece of bread left in my bag. I'll give them all to you... If you eat them, you'll survive for a few more days. Don't give up..."

Liu Yu squatted beside her, the back of her equally skinny hand turned white from being pinched by the girl. She took the backpack from the girl's arms, looked at the not-so-clean food inside, and felt a sour and uncomfortable feeling in her throat. She didn't know why in this apocalypse where everyone is selfish, there are still people who are so selfless and stupid.

How many people stuff the last bit of food they have into their mouths before they die, unwilling to die full but also unwilling to let others have it.

The strange girl actually gave her all the remaining food.

"This is... a photo of my parents. If you have the chance to meet them, tell them... you saw me at a base far away. I was... living a very..."

The girl's voice suddenly stopped, and the hand that was tightly holding Liu Yu fell coldly.

"You are doing well." The hoarse voice of the girl in Liu Yu's memory coincides with the reality today.

Then she calmly opened the memo on her phone and wrote down the emergencies at the beginning of the apocalypse and the items that needed to be prepared, as well as the specific date and approximate time of the outbreak.

Then she took a screenshot of the memo content, made a very short video, clicked the video release button, and lightly uploaded it.

In just a moment, her ridiculous pity was exposed on the world's most trafficked video app. While slurping a few mouthfuls of noodles, she gritted her teeth and spent hundreds of dollars to buy traffic for promotion.

The video APP is quite honest and the results are what I spent money on.

Liu Yu's phone started to vibrate at a high frequency. Someone commented on her video.

"Haha, I'm laughing. It's already 2033 and there are still people spreading doomsday rumors."

"2012yyds, the Mayan prediction of the end of the world didn't come true. How could the video host's prediction be accurate?"

"Ah! It's the end of the world. Can I imitate the lawless Zhang San and do whatever I want? hhhhh"

"The people upstairs are making me laugh. If you have that kind of brain, you can be a lunatic Zhang San even if it's not the end of the world!"

In H City, a student-looking girl was lying on her bed, watching videos. When she came across a video about apocalyptic rhetoric, her heart skipped a beat. She unconsciously left a comment: "It's better to believe it than not. How about some food?"

The next day at noon, as soon as she got up, she shouted to her mother who was picking vegetables in the kitchen: "Mom, give me some money, I want to buy a few boxes of instant noodles and biscuits!"

The middle-aged woman who was busy working turned around and glared fiercely at her useless daughter who never slept at night and never got up in the morning during the summer vacation.

"You look like instant biscuits to me!"

Liu Yu continued to eat noodles without replying to any comments. After reading a few bad reviews, he directly quit the app and uninstalled it to take up space.

She has done her best by doing this. As for whether those who see it believe it or not, it is up to each person.

Hopefully the kid can see this and make some preparations.

That night, after filling her stomach, Liu Yu went back to her room to shop. She worked non-stop until 3 a.m., and only lay down when it was light outside.

But as soon as the pointer pointed to 6 o'clock in the morning, the alarm clock Liu Yu set started beeping.

Liu Yu jumped out of bed without any reluctance to leave and washed up. Although she had only slept for three hours, she was full of energy. She had booked a bus ticket to the neighboring city H at 7:30 in the morning last night and could not be late.

Rubbing his cheeks in front of the mirror, Liu Yu calculated the remaining funds on hand.

Yesterday I checked the amount of cash in the black bag on her space, and there was 1.2 million. The total amount was 2.5 million from the sale of the house and 50,000 from her own savings, totaling 3.75 million.

The deposits for those orders yesterday had used up all the 500,000 yuan that had just arrived in her account yesterday. The balance could be paid with the money that Zhang Qiang would transfer today and tomorrow.

As for the 1.2 million in cash on hand, which was of unknown origin, he couldn't deposit it in the bank. Otherwise, it would definitely attract unnecessary investigation, so he had to spend it in cash.

It just so happened that she had heard that the neighboring city H was a major agricultural province, and going there in person to pick up the goods would not only lower the price and save shipping costs, but also keep the goods fresh.

Although the money she has seems to be a lot, it is actually not enough to spend, so she has to spend it carefully.

For now, buy some inexpensive essential items first. If something is expensive or difficult for ordinary people to get, you can wait for the chaos on the first day of the apocalypse to take advantage of it!

Her little abacus was clacking, and the poor had their own way of living.

This time she goes to H City, she can buy some fresh vegetables, fruits, rice and flour. She has a special space now, so she doesn't have to worry about these things going bad.

Liu Yu tiptoed out of the house, bought a lot of breakfast outside the alley, ate a few bags, left a few bags for Zhuang Moxing and Lingbao, wrote a note, and hurried away with an empty backpack.

Sure enough, not long after she got on the short-distance bus to H City, her cell phone rang.

I pressed the answer button, and a voice, severely damaged but still pleasant, came out from the low-quality phone: "Lingbao and I saw the note and breakfast you left. As compensation for living in the apartment, I will help you keep an eye on the renovations for the next few days."

Liu Yu's eyes narrowed into a beautiful arc as she replied, "You're welcome. It's a matter of reciprocity. Going with you to Zhang Qiang's house helped me sell my house quickly and smoothly, so I should thank you. I've arranged for a technician to come to my house to replace the doors and windows in the next two days. Please help me monitor the quality. I'll bring you and Lingbao gifts when I come back."

Zhuang Moxing, who had never received a travel gift before, was slightly stunned and didn't say anything for a while. Fortunately, Lingbao was showing off beside him to cover up his embarrassment.

Lingbao stood barefoot on the sofa and rushed to his senior brother's phone, yelling, "Sister Xiaoyu, come back soon! Lingbao will miss you!"

"Also, what's the gift? Is it edible?"

The child's playful and clear voice reached his ears, completely dispelling the sadness of being ruthlessly pushed away by his parents yesterday. Liu Yu couldn't help laughing and hummed mysteriously, "It's possible. Can you guess?"

Lingbao guessed this and that in distress, muttering to himself while holding his phone, but none of his answers were confirmed by Liu Yu.

Liu Yu sat in the last row of the car, enjoying two seats to herself, and leisurely entertained the children. In fact, she herself had not yet decided what to bring for them. Lingbao's random guesses helped her eliminate a lot of ideas.

However, I heard that Taoism is thriving in H Province, so there might be some unique local specialties.

The child's energetic voice was gently stopped by the man, "Okay, go eat breakfast quickly and don't bother your sister. She has something important to do."

Lingbao's mischievous words gradually faded away, and the man's deep farewell voice jumped into Liu Yu's ears: "Don't worry about the transformation. Be careful on the road and leave early..."

The rest of Zhuang Moxing's words were interrupted by the weakened signal in the cave. Liu Yu listened to the long "beep, beep, beep" sound from the phone and slapped his broken phone.

If it's not a knock-off, then it's a good phone. Why is her quality so low?
