Chapter 207 Faucet!
He Rui dragged a chair and sat by the bedroom window.
He held his chin and looked out the window, looking rather dazed.
I really can't think of a solution to the food problem.
It felt like he couldn't change anything on his own.
After all, he is not an agricultural professional. If he wants to grow crops on the land that has been destroyed by the tsunami, contaminated by viruses, and salinized, he will probably face the same result as the survivors who have tried before.
Either nothing can be grown, or a mutant plant is grown.
So He Rui estimated that he would probably have to follow the crowd and go scavenging in the future...
But he felt that even if he could cross the threshold of feeling dirty psychologically, nearly half a year had passed.
As early as after the tsunami, when the city was flooded, some clever people took a boat out to look for supplies.
So much time has passed, and any food and water that the survivors could find should have been picked up long ago.
The food produced before was limited, and now there is probably not much stock left in various places.
And so far, the city’s power has not been restored.
No one runs this city.
If the China we live in now is similar to their own country, there should be necessary strategic grain reserve depots in many cities and towns to deal with natural disasters, plagues, and wars.
Although it is hard to guarantee whether the food stored inside was flooded by the tsunami, it is unknown to what extent it was contaminated.
And he really didn't know where this kind of place was.
There is no new food output, so the local shelter should send people to transport the food from the granary.
But...until now, he has never seen any army rescuing the survivors.
After all, Jiang Sheng had encountered a helicopter sent by the army before, which was rare and brave and not afraid of sacrifice.
Despite having no magnetic field, no radio, a messed-up navigation panel, the possibility of encountering a solar storm that would affect electronic equipment, and no way to communicate with the ground, and the risk of crashing and killing people at any time, they still had to distribute false leaflets to appease people.
But he had never encountered anything.
On the first day in this world, He Rui was still thinking that maybe he could join the army here.
The army is always more friendly, and the country should be reliable.
Unexpectedly...
Although he had no intention of working in the army here again.
But at present, in his opinion, perhaps the only places with scientific research teams and talents in this field such as agronomists who can develop crops adapted to the current land and grow crops from farmland are large-scale shelters based on provinces or countries.
Only there is abundant food storage...
He Rui thought of the two or three warehouses he had rented before.
The supplies there were actually enough for him to eat for many years.
However, the supplies might have already been taken away by the older employees who also knew the location of the warehouse.
Man proposes, God disposes.
A few days ago, he felt that he and Tietie were getting along very well and their relationship was so close that there was nothing to say. He had no worries about survival and had enough energy to care about others. He thought it would be okay to give the supplies in the two warehouses to the previous rich second-generation employees.
I didn't expect that I would quickly fall into the situation where I want to share a share...
Assuming that the previous employees had occupied those two or three supply points but had not yet emptied them all, He Rui estimated that it would be unlikely for him to get anything.
Even if he bought it with the money of a rich second-generation, even if the other party would think that he was the former boss.
But at this time, who would be willing to share the vital food and water resources after the disaster?
And the most crucial problem is that he doesn't know the way...
Where can I find those places?
He Rui sighed deeply, thinking that he was crazy.
If I had known earlier, I should have called Ji in advance and asked him to carry him there before leaving, whether it was to the warehouse or the shelter.
At least go to a promising place...
It's too late to regret now. It was his fault that he was only concerned with his loss and didn't consider anything carefully.
.....
To save food.
He Rui didn't eat anything all day.
I was emo lying by the window all day.
Originally, you could occasionally see mutant animals.
Now there is no trace of him at all, as his brother Ji has cleared out the entire area.
At night, he didn't turn on the lights.
I'm not as bold as before. After all, I'm alone now, and I'm a little worried that using the flashlight at night will attract the attention of survivors outside.
To be honest, a fire axe can split open even a slightly damaged security door.
In fact, you don't even need to split the door. If you know where the steel bars are, you can avoid them by chiseling a hole in the wall next to the door lock and reach in to unlock it.
It just makes too much noise and takes too long, so thieves definitely won't do that.
Although he had been using the flashlight quite unscrupulously during the first few nights he stayed here.
But it’s not too late now.
Make some remedy.
It can also save some electricity.
Without the warehouse manager and the original large amount of material support, the electricity he could use became limited.
After a day of such frugal living, He Rui felt more and more deeply the difficult situation of the survivors.
Holding the national flag, in the dark night, perhaps because the environment was too lonely, there was no other sound except the BGM.
The background music was too soothing and a bit hypnotic.
Originally, he was thinking that he must persevere, not sleep, and always be alert to the outside world. Although if he didn't sleep, his body would become more and more tired the longer he delayed, there was no point in persisting.
Anyway, if you sleep, you may die in an accident, and if you don’t sleep, you may die suddenly from exhaustion.
He Rui finally couldn't hold on any longer, and accidentally fell on the windowsill in a daze, falling into a deep sleep.
While sleeping, he dreamed that his brother Ji came back again.
.....
The next morning, He Rui regained consciousness and sat up in bed yawning.
Something doesn't feel right.
Looking at the bed and the chair by the window, I found that he had actually moved himself in his sleep at night.
It's not impossible.
Once on Earth, he had an experience where he slept at night and woke up in the morning to find that the light in his bedroom, which had been turned off, had turned on by itself. He didn't know why.
After asking, I found out that it was not the women in the family who had nothing to do and ran to his room to open it.
The only remaining possibility, besides him sleepwalking, is that it's haunted.
Ruling out hauntings, he chose to believe that he might be sleepwalking.
So for a while later, He Ruiman was worried that he might open the window and jump out of the building after falling asleep at night, or sleepwalk and poke his eyes with sharp objects...
He got out of bed, put on his shoes, and walked to the bathroom with a confused mind. Halfway through washing up, He Rui stared at the familiar stream of water in front of him, holding his toothbrush in his mouth, his mouth full of foam, and suddenly froze.
He stared blankly at the clear water column, completely awake, feeling a little confused.
