Chapter 21 The last wave of stockpiling
[2000 nutrient solution extra chapter]
"Hey, hey? Why did you get off? You can't get off here. Don't make me get fined!"
The driver shouted in the car. In other cars on both sides of the lane, some people were complaining on the phone, some couldn't help but honk the horn, and some saw her get off the car, pushed the door and got out to look ahead.
Although Youxi's vision and hearing are much better than ordinary people, she can't see the situation in front of her because there are too many vehicles, the distance is too far, and the height is limited.
She put down her phone, knocked on the window of the taxi, said sorry, and then jumped up from the trunk at the rear of the car and stood on the roof.
"Hey, hey, what are you doing!"
Amid the driver's complaints, she finally saw the situation two or three hundred meters ahead.
Two cars rear-ended each other and were lying across the road. The door of the car behind was open, and the owner got out of the car and was knocking on the door of the car in front to get him out.
Because there was a green belt in the middle of the four lanes, the cars in the two lanes couldn't go around, so all the cars were stuck behind.
Some people got out of the blocked cars, some were watching the situation, some were calling the police, and some followed the owner of the car behind to the front car, knocking on the glass to tell the people inside to move their cars even if they didn't get out, and not to stand still in the middle of the road.
But no matter how they knocked on the glass, the people in the car didn't respond.
The two people who were arguing with the people in the car in a friendly manner gradually became angry, and began to knock on the glass more and more, and even tried to open the car door.
You Xi had a bad feeling.
Sure enough, before she could get off the roof of the car, a scream was heard, and the car door that was originally tightly closed opened at some point. The person who had knocked on the door and car glass before was now half dragged into the car, and let out a series of terrified screams, kicking his hands and feet desperately to break free.
The other person standing next to him did not react for a while, and stood there motionlessly looking at the miserable situation in the car.
Soon, the man who was dragged into the car fell to the ground, twitching while holding his bleeding neck. A gray-black hand stretched out, and the mutated zombie rushed out, directly knocking the other person who was stunned there to the ground.
The onlookers were instantly in chaos. Some bravely stepped forward to save people, some took pictures with their mobile phones, some were stunned where they were, and some smart people stepped forward to take a look and immediately fled back to their cars, closed the door, and then tried to run over the green belt to leave.
Youxi quickly jumped off the roof of the car, opened the passenger seat and got in the car, patting the driver to drive over the middle green belt immediately and turn around to leave.
The driver naturally refused and accused her of various violations with an unhappy face.
There was still some distance from the destination. Youxi didn't want to waste time taking a taxi, so she took out the stun gun: "Either drive or I'll drive!"
"Hey, you're holding a gun! How can you be so fierce, little girl? I'll call the police--" The driver's remaining words disappeared in the crackling sound of the electric current.
Youxi's stun gun almost hit his face. She turned cold and blocked his hand that wanted to grab the stun gun: "Last chance, drive!"
The driver stepped on the accelerator with a frustrated look on his face, and forced his way over the green belt, while driving and cursing how much money he would be fined and how many points he would be deducted.
As a result, he just crossed the green belt and found that several cars in the direction of the traffic jam were also crossing the green belt and turning around at the same time.
A car was driving the fastest. It turned around and immediately stepped on the gas and rushed over at high speed. The front of the car almost hit the taxi, and finally wiped off the right rearview mirror of the taxi and drove away.
"Is he crazy? What happened?" The driver was stunned.
"Don't ask, take me to the destination first, and then go online to read the news!"
You Xi was talking when screams from the traffic jam behind began to spread, followed by a series of car collisions. She looked back from the car window and saw that the cars closest to the scene of the accident were in chaos.
She knew that not every car was close to the green belt, and not every car had enough space to turn around. In this case, forcing a U-turn or reversing would only make the traffic jam even more difficult.
There were continuous creepy screams. Some people immediately abandoned their cars and fled, while others were dragged by the newly mutated zombies as soon as they opened the car door.
"What happened?" The driver was a little panicked.
"Let's get out of here first!" At Youxi's urging, the driver stepped on the accelerator again and drove to the back, where there was another road leading to Youxi's community.
Fortunately, there was no similar situation on the remaining sections of the road. It was still the early stage of the zombie outbreak, and she returned in the golden time.
More than ten minutes later, the car stopped outside the community.
During these ten minutes, she simply told the driver about the situation outside: "Thank you for taking me back. There are not many accidents in S City right now. Prepare enough drinking water and stay indoors for temporary safety. If you want to leave the city under the conditions, don't go to the high-speed rail station or the train station. You can drive by yourself. Remember to avoid the two directions of H City and Y City. There are also infected people there."
"Thank you, thank you!" The driver looked unacceptable, remembering her words randomly, and nodded hurriedly.
You Xi scanned the QR code on the car, paid her double the money, and went straight to the water station next to the community.
There is no chaos in this area for the time being, and it is estimated that no abnormal situation has occurred. Because it is not a main road, there are few cars.
The maximum amount of water at the water station is 19L per barrel. She ordered 40 barrels and asked for immediate delivery. Of course, she did not ask them to deliver it directly to her home, but left the garage number plate where the grocery store was located.
"Little girl, do you want so much water right away?" Because it was a large order, the boss and his wife were very enthusiastic, "But the two of us are delivering water outside, and we also have several other houses to deliver to?"
"I'll give you some extra money, can you help me deliver it urgently now?"
In fact, the other party just wanted to add some shipping fees, and of course she agreed when the other party said that.
In the end, the boss and his wife personally moved the barrels of water onto an electric tricycle with a shed. The tricycle is not big, it can carry 20 barrels of water at a time, and 40 barrels of water can be transported in two times.
While they were filling water, Youxi went to the fruit store next door and bought ten boxes of fruit: two boxes of apples, two boxes of pears, two boxes of oranges, two boxes of small watermelons, and two boxes of cantaloupes. She also asked the store to deliver them to the garage immediately.
The water and fruit cost about 1,700 yuan in total, leaving less than 300 yuan. With the overdraft amount on her WeChat account, she bought all the headache, fever, and cold medicines, cephalosporin antibiotics, disinfectant alcohol wipes, iodine, gauze bandages, and 500 masks at the drugstore on the other side.
This amount of money is definitely not enough to stock up, she just doesn't want to waste the money in Taobao, WeChat, and WeChat.
In fact, she had stockpiled a lot of medicines before the Novice Doomsday World Mission, because she had hardly used them in the previous world, so the inventory was still sufficient, plus the ones she bought this time, it was completely enough.
Afterwards, she hurried back to the community. As she stepped into the community, some of the world settings related to the community slowly emerged in her mind.
This is an old community, the gate is very loose, but there is a security room and an electric gate. Now it is off-work time, and the electric gate is open.
The whole community is not big. It was a demolished house back then. The real estate development business district could not find a larger land, so the idea of building a villa group was abandoned, and residential buildings were built. The whole community has a total of 9 buildings, with a very small park inside, and the occupancy rate is not high.
Most of the residential buildings are five or six stories high, with no elevators or basements. There are three units in one building, with two residents in each unit. The first floor is a garage and a battery garage, and each unit has a security door.
The garage rented by this character's parents is in Building 8, located in the left front of the small park. It is only more than 20 square meters. Half of it is used as a warehouse to sell some odds and ends.
Rice, oil, instant noodles, ham, salt, MSG and other condiments, daily necessities such as towels and toothbrushes, snacks such as potato chips, biscuits, chocolate, chewing gum, popping candy, small items such as scissors, double-sided tape, batteries, light bulbs, etc., all kinds of things are available.
The character's mother stays in the grocery store all day long. She doesn't close the store even when she goes home to cook, because the grocery store has surveillance cameras, and everyone can see exactly what they buy.
Generally, people take things from the shelves, look at the price, and pay by scanning the store's QR code.
They are all small items and the prices are not expensive, so the grocery store has not encountered any petty theft since it opened.
Youxi was alert to the situation in the community all the way. When she arrived at her own grocery store, the south-facing roller shutter door was open. She turned off the surveillance cameras first, and then moved the shelves slightly to leave a small space.
The fruit shop owner was quick, pushing the unloading iron cart to arrive not long after she arrived, and unloading was done in one go.
The water station owner had to run twice, which took more than 20 minutes. When all 40 barrels of water were in place, she thanked him and paid. The boss wanted to say a few pleasantries and asked her if she was planning to do the cooked food business by buying so much water.
As a result, he received a call from the boss's wife just as he opened his mouth. The other party was surprised and asked him to go home quickly, saying that something happened outside. After
seeing the boss off, Youxi lowered the roller shutter door and locked it. Then he stuffed all 40 barrels of water and ten boxes of fruit into the Xingwu warehouse, and then cleared out the items on the shelves.
Because it was just a moving job, she didn't care whether the things were neat or not. She would just fill them up if there was space.
There were more things in the small warehouse separated at the back of the grocery store. Fortunately, the Star House Warehouse was a full 180 cubic meters. As long as she ignored the problem of neatness, all the things could be put in.
It was just a pity. She originally wanted to stuff a small RV into the Star House Warehouse. Now that these things were put in, there would definitely be no place for the small RV. An ordinary car should still be able to fit in.
This time, her mission was to take the character's parents to relocate. She would definitely need a suitable car in the later stage. The problem of the car would definitely have to wait until the initial chaos period was over before she could think of a solution.
However, Youxi thought of a question: "System, did you say before that the Star House warehouse can be upgraded? Will the space become larger after the upgrade?"
[The Star House warehouse will be upgraded along with the Star House. After the upgrade, the warehouse space can be expanded. The specific information can only be known after the host upgrades the Star House. ]
The system answered very straightforwardly, which made Youxi feel very good.
After Youxi packed her things, she did not open the roller shutter door again, but went out from the small door at the back of the garage.
After going out, there is the corridor on the first floor of Building 8. Her house is on Building 3, the highest floor, the fifth floor, the westernmost unit, just at the other end of the small park.
The house is in a good location, because it is on the west side and there is no line of sight blocking it. Standing on the balcony, you can take in the situation of most of the community.
Before the other party came to open the door, she wondered what they looked like, whether they would look exactly like her parents in her native world.
Because she had heard the other party's voice on the phone before, and she didn't know if it would feel very strange if they looked exactly the same.
After the door opened, the faces of a middle-aged man and woman came into Youxi's sight.
The two faces were somewhat familiar, but not exactly the same as her biological father and mother. Their facial features were about 70% similar. Although they were a few years younger, they looked a little haggard, as if they had lived a very hard life.
There were also differences in their dressing styles and body shapes. In short, she felt very close to them, but they were not so identical that she felt weird.
The moment she stepped into the house, the Star House system broadcast in her mind.
