Chapter 100 The Water Level Has Receded
The news that the T1 virus has been cured has been circulating on the Internet, and the number of people cured is increasing every day.
From 1 to 10 to hundreds and thousands!
Although no one has actually seen these cured people, and this news has not been released by the official.
But this does not prevent hope from being rekindled in everyone's hearts.
Now the water level outside has receded, and the disease can probably be cured.
Many people no longer lock themselves in their rooms.
After all, supplies are so expensive now, and if we don’t have any income, we will really run out of food.
With the protection of protective clothing and masks, leaving the house no longer seems to be a difficult thing.
But at this time, everyone was surprised to find that the New Year had already passed!
It’s been several days since the new year.
The New Year passed quietly at the peak of the virus outbreak!
In the days around New Year's Day, the number of people who died from the T1 virus every day was over 10 million.
Everyone locked the doors and windows tightly, and some even wanted to cover all the gaps in the doors and windows with tape, for fear that even a little bit of the poisonous fog would seep in.
The whole family huddled in the only room with intact doors and windows, breathing the little air carefully and feeling the fear!
Who will care what day it is at that time?
This New Year passed by quietly without any countdown, party or celebration.
The water level had receded a few days ago, but that was the peak of the virus, and no one dared to go out even if there was no flooding outside.
However, now that the virus may be cured, many people are eager to go out and make money.
After all, many people have spent all their savings during the nearly one month of being locked up at home.
They have protective suits and masks purchased at high prices.
Moreover, the authorities also said that as long as you wear a mask and protective clothing, the chance of being infected is actually very small.
The protective suits that cost only a few dozen yuan before the end of the world are now sold for several thousand yuan and are out of stock.
The reason why the price is so high is that the official stated that this protective clothing is not really disposable, but can be used repeatedly.
Alcohol and chlorine-containing disinfectant can kill the T1 virus attached to the outside of objects!
That is to say, protective clothing that has been used once can be soaked in alcohol or chlorine-containing disinfectant water.
It can be used again after soaking for half an hour.
If you don't have enough alcohol or disinfectant for soaking, you can wipe it a few more times with these.
The water level has receded, and the entire city has revealed its original appearance.
Although the poisonous fog is still thick, the appearance of the city cannot be seen clearly.
But we can still get a rough idea from the hours every day when the helicopters spray defogger.
Although it was not as devastated as the coastal cities, many buildings collapsed.
The ground was littered with all kinds of garbage, silt, fallen trees, damaged vehicles, as well as marine life, animals, poultry, and even human corpses.
The entire city is no longer the city that everyone was familiar with.
When many people saw such a city, they covered their mouths and cried silently.
Can this world, and their lives, ever go back to the way they were before?
The official action was quick.
We are actively recruiting volunteers to start cleaning up and repairing this dilapidated city.
Because there is no stagnant water outside, the volunteers recruited now are mainly to clean up garbage and organize supplies.
But the poisonous fog outside still exists. Although everyone is wearing protective clothing and masks, there is still a chance of infection.
So now volunteers still receive a subsidy of 1,000 yuan a day.
The amount is not small. After the recruitment notice came out, Han Ying saw that dozens of people in their building had signed up.
I will officially start work tomorrow morning.
Today, the authorities have issued a notice that everyone is not allowed to go out and must stay indoors to avoid accidental injuries.
Because the helicopter will spray defogger and disinfectant twice more today to prepare for the large number of volunteers to go out to work tomorrow.
Lei Minghu from next door also signed up.
Han Ying herself didn't want to be a volunteer, but she couldn't stop others from going.
1,000 yuan a day.
Although prices are still terrible, you can still buy a lot of things.
Lei Minghu and Wu Tingfang sent a message in their small group on the 27th floor, asking Han Ying and Lu Yuan if they wanted to be volunteers.
Both of them said they would not go.
After the group was silent for a while, Lei Minghu suddenly sent another voice message.
Ask Han Ying and Lu Yuan if they want to go down to the basement.
When seeing this message, Han Ying did not respond immediately, and Lu Yuan on the opposite side did not say anything either.
The first floor below ground, isn’t that the underground parking lot?
Why go to the underground parking lot for no reason?
Today, the official notice says we cannot go out.
Is it what Han Ying thought?
The newly recruited volunteers will start their work tomorrow, and Lei Minghu asked this question at this time.
"Da Hu, is it really okay for us to do this?"
Wu Tingfang sat on the sofa with her cell phone in her hand. She kept looking at the phone interface. Neither Han Ying nor Lu Yuan responded.
"It's not good or bad. We should always think more about the future. I feel that this virus will not pass so quickly."
Disasters are not easy to overcome, but life must go on.
He always tries to find ways to stock up more things for his family.
Buying protective clothing has almost used up all their family savings, and they had originally left about 20,000 yuan for the mortgage.
But in the end, the money was used to buy protective clothing and some other supplies.
So he signed up as a volunteer, and the 1,000 yuan a day subsidy could help him out in his urgent need.
In fact, Lei Minghu had thought about gasoline ever since the water level receded.
However, the poisonous fog was at its peak at that time. Although supplies were important, they were not as important as life.
But today the authorities said that they would send helicopters to spray defogger and disinfectant more often.
In this way, the concentration of the toxic fog will decrease, and the underground parking garage will not be directly exposed to those chemicals. As long as proper protection is taken, safety will be acceptable.
And there is only this one chance. After today, a large number of volunteers will go out tomorrow, so I'm afraid there will be no chance to take action.
"What if someone sees us?"
Although Wu Tingfang knew the truth, she had been a law-abiding citizen for decades.
If she were suddenly asked to do these things, she would still feel a little uncomfortable mentally.
But if it is true as her husband said, this poisonous fog will not pass so quickly.
Supplies are ridiculously expensive. Although you can earn a lot of money as a volunteer, it involves risking your life.
Things like gasoline are definitely on the official list of key protected materials.
I don’t know how expensive it will be in the future.
If they collect a little now, even if they don't use it themselves, they can still earn a considerable income by selling it later.
