Chapter 234 Return to the City
After working for a whole morning, my clothes were soaked with sweat and I was sticky all over.
Whenever this happened, Shi Jiaojiao would be extremely grateful for the existence of the Golden House, which allowed her and Mu Ci to enjoy the joy of taking a shower anytime and anywhere.
When I came out of the bathroom, Mu Ci had already prepared lunch.
Although the temperature in the space is suitable, the appetite will inevitably be affected by the bad weather outside.
Therefore, the meals were mainly light and refreshing. In order to get Shi Jiaojiao to eat more, Mu Ci cooked the meal himself.
After dinner, the two returned to the cave.
It is now half past twelve noon, which can be said to be the hottest time of the day.
Shi Jiaojiao put the thermometer outside the door.
Five minutes later, the results came out.
Sixty-two degrees!
Shi Jiaojiao only felt her scalp tingling.
She knew that the temperature at noon would definitely be higher than in the morning, but wasn't it a bit too outrageous that the temperature suddenly rose by 20 degrees in one day?
And the temperature is so high now, what about at night?
Will it fall back or continue to rise?
Nobody knows the answer.
But the only thing that can be confirmed now is that the polar day has not yet fully arrived.
They must take this opportunity to go back to the city.
It's not just to check the current situation in the city, but also to find a chance to take out the two cars in the space.
You have to know that in the eyes of Wang Jia and others, their car is still in the garage of Tiantai Community.
Mu Ci said, "Also, take this opportunity to bring out the water you prepared for Wang Jia and the others. Then you can say you bought it from a channel at a high price."
Shi Jiaojiao nodded.
After the polar day begins, I don’t know how long it will take for the next rain to fall.
She was not short of water, but she couldn't just watch Wang Jia and Tang Wei die of thirst.
But before going down the mountain, you have to call to find out the situation outside.
Shi Jiaojiao took out the satellite phone and dialed.
The call rang for a long time before it was connected, and Qin Jun's slightly dry voice came from the other end of the receiver.
"The water outside receded yesterday. The authorities cleared out some subway stations and some large underground shopping malls overnight. A group of survivors have been evacuated today."
Shi Jiaojiao was a little surprised at the official's speed, but it was normal after thinking about it.
You know, the least valuable thing in the end times is human resources.
As long as the government can provide food, there will be plenty of people working.
Qin Jun: "How are you doing in the mountains? If things don't work out, move down. Although the conditions here are average, it's safer."
Shi Jiaojiao refused and said, "We won't go down."
First, I don’t want to squeeze with so many people. There will be a lot of trouble if there are too many people.
The second reason is that she cannot reveal the secret of the space.
After hanging up the phone, Shi Jiaojiao took out a bicycle from the space.
They definitely couldn't hide their plan to go out from Wang Jia and the others.
You can't say that you're going to Tiantai Community to pick up the car at that time, right?
The bicycle that was taken out looked tattered, as if it had just been dug out of the ground.
This is not the material that was searched, but the aging effect created by acid rain and sandpaper.
Mu Ci looked at the bicycle and felt a little unsatisfied. After thinking for a while, he twisted the handlebars hard so that it looked like...
Shi Jiaojiao took out two more masks from the space. They were the ones that were sold out in seconds and could perfectly isolate the air.
When the accumulated water recedes, the dirt at the bottom will be revealed.
These things are the source of the plague.
She used to think that this mask was useless, but now she just wants to say, it’s really good.
Next, it’s time for the show.
Mu Ci pushed the bicycle, while Shi Jiaojiao pretended to be excited and knocked on the door of Wang Jia and the other man.
Wang Jia and his friend were catching up on their sleep at home. When they heard the noise, they thought something had happened and immediately opened the door.
The two men still looked a little confused, but when they saw the bicycle in Mu Ci's hand, their eyes widened and their sleepiness disappeared instantly.
Wang Jia was shocked and excited: "Wow, where did you find this? It's amazing."
Tang Wei also came over and said: "The handlebar is a little crooked, but after it is straightened, it doesn't affect the use at all."
Although it was just a bicycle, it meant that the four of them had a means of transportation!
They had long given up counting on the two cars still parked in the underground garage of Tiantai Community.
Not only has it been soaked for two years, but it also keeps changing temperature from hot to cold. Even the Transformers wouldn't be able to stand it.
Shi Jiaojiao said: "It's over there."
Her hand pointed toward the foot of the mountain.
Then he explained, "Just now, Qin Jun called and said that the water had receded, so Mu Ci and I wanted to go to the foot of the mountain to check the situation, but unexpectedly we found a bicycle."
Wang Jia and Tang Wei were stunned.
At this time, Mu Ci took over the conversation: "It just so happens that we have transportation, Jiaojiao and I are planning to go out for a trip."
Wang Jia's face changed: "Do we have to go? I think it's a bit dangerous outside. We basically don't lack anything now, so why not stay at home and wait out the polar day first!"
Shi Jiaojiao said, "Don't forget, our car is still in the underground garage. No matter if it's good or bad, we have to go check it out while the temperature is not too high."
Wang Jia and Tang Wei were a little worried, but it was impossible for them to go with them.
After all, there is only one bicycle.
Shi Jiaojiao comforted her, "Don't worry, we will pay attention to safety. You two will be responsible for guarding the house. Although this is a suburb, it is not without risks. If the house is robbed, we will all be waiting for death."
"Then remember to come back early." Wang Jia reminded.
Shi Jiaojiao agreed, and then walked down the mountain with Mu Ci.
When they were halfway there, they discovered that the white mist, which was as thick as milk before, had become much thinner.
The fog now looks like an ordinary smoggy day before the end of the world.
Visibility improved, so they could clearly see the devastation at the foot of the mountain.
Everywhere you look, there is mud and some debris that cannot be distinguished.
It's just a big, disgusting sewer.
She and Mu Ci wore masks to block out the air, but just by looking at it, she could imagine how smelly it was in here.
Shi Jiaojiao endured the discomfort, put the bicycle back into the space, and then took out the Hummer.
This place is far enough from the mountain that there is no need to worry about Wang Jia and Tang Wei seeing us.
After starting the car, the first thing to do is turn on the air conditioner.
Anyway, they don't lack gasoline, so there's no need to make things difficult for themselves.
When they were almost in the city, they got off the car and rode bicycles to continue their journey.
After all, the noise from driving a vehicle is too loud and it is too easy to attract other people's attention.
They are not afraid of trouble, but they also don't want to waste time and energy on trouble.
