Chapter 24 Municipal Office Begins Disaster Relief



The Municipal Government Office has set up a typhoon emergency command center.

Mayor Chen Guodong personally served as the chief of the command, and all 300 troops stationed in the city participated in the typhoon relief and rescue operations.

So far they have relocated 500 disaster-affected people living in low-lying areas and old houses.

The temporary rescue point is set up in Lingcheng Gymnasium, which can normally accommodate 8,000 people.

The rescued people lived in a makeshift tent. It was breakfast time, and the staff gave each person two loaves of bread and a box of pure milk.

Municipal building, general office.

"Who is this person? Are you afraid that others won't see you joking? You sent me five emails in a row!"

Mayor's assistant Xiao Liu is responsible for answering emergency calls and checking emails from the public at the office center.

"Oh my god! Which elementary school student wrote this? He must have read too many novels! It includes apocalyptic natural disasters, typhoons and floods!"

The clerk sitting next to Xiao Liu moved his chair over and almost laughed out loud when he saw the content of the email that Xiao Liu opened.

"I'm actually used to it! Since we made this mailbox public, there have been very few people who have made normal reports or given serious suggestions."

Xiao Liu smiled, stuffed a piece of bread into his mouth and continued, "The last time there was an email from a little girl, she said she was heartbroken and her boyfriend didn't want her anymore, so she asked the government to send her an email."

"Isn't it funny? If I could get this, would I still be single at the age of 30?" Xiao Liu complained to himself.

"But this typhoon seems to be a little different from previous ones."

"It seems like it's endless. From the time it made landfall to now, it's been more than ten days in total! How could there be a typhoon with such a long cycle? With this amount of rainfall, there might even be floods!"

The clerk thought about it and carefully read the email sent by Su Keke again and said.

"According to you, this is a prophetic email? What it says is likely to happen? No way! Do you believe this too?"

Xiao Liu continued to eat his bread. He basically just laughed off such anonymous emails.

Even if there really is a natural disaster, how did the person who sent the email know about it? Could it be that a god really came down to earth to save all living beings?

"I just thought about it according to the idea in the email and felt that what the anonymous person said was likely to happen."

"Why don't you report what's in the email to the mayor, just in case it's true! If we prepare earlier, we can save a lot of people. They sent five emails in a row, so they definitely don't want them to fall on deaf ears with you."

After hearing what the clerk said, Xiao Liu also felt that there seemed to be some truth in it.

So he quickly called Mayor Chen Guodong and told him about the anonymous email.

"Oh? There's such a thing? Forward the email to me and I'll take a look at the content first!"

Chen Guodong arrived at the gymnasium early in the morning and had breakfast with the victims there.

This typhoon will last for a long time and cause great destructive power.

Many houses in the old city have collapsed due to years of disrepair. It will cost a lot of money to rebuild and repair them in the future.

Not long after, Xiao Liu's email was forwarded.

Chen Guodong quickly opened his laptop. When he saw the various natural disasters mentioned in the anonymous letter, his first reaction was disbelief.

Isn't this kind of apocalyptic natural disaster really just a plot in novels? However, after reading the description in the letter carefully, it seems to give people a very real feeling.

After reading the anonymous letter, Chen Guodong planned to move the Lingcheng government’s granary to a safe place first.

Regardless of whether it is true or not, there is scientific evidence that the long period of heavy rain has caused rivers to burst their banks, and the water level in cities has risen, leading to large-scale floods.

Now in China, not only coastal cities like Lingcheng are experiencing super typhoons, but many inland cities have also been experiencing heavy rains for several days in a row.

The climate this year is really weird. It is extremely hot before summer even arrives, and typhoons last for more than ten days.

After careful consideration, Chen Guodong decided to forward this anonymous email to the country's top leader.

As for whether those leaders in high positions believe it or not, it is beyond his ability.

His most important task at present is to protect Lingcheng.

After last night’s search for supplies, most people on the 20th floor slept until noon today.

Lu Mei asked in the group again, is there anyone who wants to go out to look for supplies tonight?

"Aunt Lu, we won't go today. The supplies we found yesterday are enough for us to eat for more than ten days." Shi Huan said.

She and Meng Yi both felt that the rain would surely stop and the sky would clear up in ten days.

Grandma Qiao also agreed with their opinions and said that she didn't plan to go out today either.

"Then we won't go out! Maybe the rain will stop tomorrow!" Seeing that no one wanted to go out, Lu Mei found a way out for herself.

Su Keke had just typed half of the words and then quietly withdrew them. In fact, she wanted to say, "No problem, I'll go with you!"

Unexpectedly, Lu Mei simply ignored her.

But Su Keke was not angry. She probably thought that Aunt Lu was too young to want her to take risks with him.

"Meow..." Tangyuan shouted to Su Keke who was daydreaming about her phone, then jumped onto the sofa and rubbed his head against her.

The whole cat looks soft and cute, as if saying, "Sister Coco, you still have me! I will accompany you every day!"

"Our Tangyuan is still sensible!" Su Keke put down her phone, held Tangyuan on her lap, and touched its little head with her hand.

This guy has been eating well and sleeping enough recently, and his small body has gained a lot of weight. He really looks rounder day by day, and is becoming more and more like his name.

After playing with Tangyuan for a while, Su Keke went to the space gym to exercise.

In the end times, in addition to accurate shooting skills, having good physical fitness can sometimes save lives.

After more than half a month of training, Su Keke should have no problem running 1000 meters.

Next, she has to do strength training. She has downloaded a lot of video tutorials on her tablet, including how to build muscles and how to punch powerfully. She wants to learn all of these.

In the evening, Grandma Qiao called Su Keke over for dinner again.

Su Keke took the opportunity to move all the supplies she had received last night to Grandma Qiao's house.

Before Grandma Qiao could refuse, Su Keke spoke first, "Grandma Qiao! Please don't let me move back. I'm lazy and I just want to come to your place for meals every day."

"Kid, you gave me all the supplies, what are you going to eat?"

Grandma Qiao put a piece of freshly cooked chicken leg into Su Keke's mouth and said.

"I'll come to your house for dinner every day! Grandma Qiao's cooking skills are so good, I'm in for a treat!"

Su Keke put the meat and seafood she brought into Grandma Qiao's refrigerator. Other supplies that did not need to be refrigerated were placed in the cupboard.

If there is a power outage tomorrow, I will move another diesel generator over myself.

Ah! Su Keke was suddenly shocked. She only knew how to buy generators, but she hadn't stocked up on diesel yet!
