At this moment, Chen Li was the first to run down from upstairs and saw Su Keke standing next to an off-road vehicle.
"Oh my god! Coco! Where did you get such a nice car?"
Mercedes-Benz G-Class, this is his dream car!
The car that Chen Li had dreamed of buying was now driven back by Su Keke.
Su Keke had already figured out the origin of the car. She was about to say that she picked it up on the roadside, but she didn't know why the car was not submerged by the flood.
Anyway, she was just lucky today.
Unexpectedly, Meng Yi who came down from behind said directly, "Keke, your car is a display car from the 4S store! There is no license plate, and there are no insurance or annual inspection marks on the windshield."
“I’ll go!”
Su Keke was stunned for a moment. Brother Meng Yi had really good eyesight. He could tell at a glance that this was the car in the showroom even in such a dark place. He really deserved to be a car salesman.
After hearing what he said, Su Keke really didn’t know how to continue her story.
"What are you all standing there for? Are you waiting for those people upstairs to come over and snatch it?"
"Keke, open the car door quickly so that everyone can move the things in the car upstairs!"
Fortunately, Grandma Qiao came to her rescue. Su Keke said "oh" and quickly opened the back door.
The three men, Chen Da, Chen Li and Meng Yi, carried the firewood, while Grandma Qiao, Lu Mei and Shi Huan were responsible for carrying the lighter cold-resistant supplies.
Su Keke asked them to go upstairs first while she found a safe place to hide the car.
If this car is parked here, someone will probably pry the lock open at dawn tomorrow.
"Then you better be careful!" said Grandma Qiao.
"Got it! I'll be back soon!"
Su Keke waited until they all went upstairs, then drove the car a little bit forward.
After making sure that no one saw it, she put it directly into the space. Now there was no safer place than her own space.
…
When Su Keke returned to the 20th floor, she saw everyone else waiting for her in Lu Mei's living room.
The half-lit candle was placed on the middle coffee table, and Shi Huan and Meng Yi continued to eat the instant noodles they had not finished.
Grandma Qiao and Lu Mei sat together, holding hands and talking about something.
Under the candlelight, everyone's face looked hazy.
Su Keke stood at the door of 2003 and looked at the scene, feeling as if she were in another world.
"I'm back!" she cried softly.
"Coco, come in!" Lu Mei stood up and waved to Su Keke at the door.
"Coco, you gave us most of the cold-resistant supplies you worked so hard to find. We don't know how to thank you and Grandma Qiao."
"We are embarrassed to accept it. After all, Meng Yi and I didn't contribute much."
Shi Huan and Lu Mei looked at the cold-resistant supplies and firewood that everyone had carried up in the living room and said.
"Why didn't you help? Didn't you help carry all these things up from downstairs? Grandma Qiao and I have several down quilts at home, and we can't use all these things anyway."
Su Keke said.
"Don't be polite to me and Coco, just treat us to a big dinner after this natural disaster is over!"
Grandma Qiao looked at Su Keke and said meaningfully.
"Okay then, it's settled. I'll treat you to a big meal then."
"Then I'll treat you too!"
Lu Mei and Shi Huan both rushed to treat everyone to a big dinner. In their hearts, those terrible natural disasters were over and the days to come would be better and better.
In fact, it was not just Lu Mei and the others who thought so. Since the sun came out, most people thought that the natural disaster was over.
…
Three days later, the extreme cold arrived quietly.
Around 11 o'clock in the evening, the temperature in Lingcheng suddenly dropped from 22 degrees to minus 30 degrees.
A thick layer of ice formed on the windows of every household.
"Why is it so cold all of a sudden? I feel like the bed is going to freeze!"
"Oh my god! This is going to freeze people to death! Did the temperature really drop suddenly? The government's crow's mouth is so effective!"
Many people who were woken up by the cold cursed and shivered as they got up and looked for thick blankets to cover themselves.
Some people didn't even wake up and just froze to death.
The extreme cold seemed to have come early. Su Keke remembered that the extreme cold in her previous life was at the end of September in the lunar calendar. It is only mid-September now. How come the extreme cold has come so early?
Not good! Su Keke thought that she had not yet sent cold-weather supplies to Uncle Lei and the others.
"Coco! Are you cold?" Grandma Qiao shouted outside the room.
In order to prevent herself and Grandma Qiao from freezing to death in their sleep, Su Keke has set the air conditioner to a constant temperature of 20 degrees these days.
"I'm fine! Grandma Qiao, the extreme cold has arrived early, let's go and alert Aunt Lu and the others."
Su Keke put on a thick down jacket and came out of 2001 with a flashlight.
As soon as she stepped out of the house, Su Keke felt a cold current coming towards her.
The nose, eyes and hands exposed outside were all frozen and painful.
After a while, Grandma Qiao also came out wearing a down jacket and snow boots.
The two of them ran to the doors of rooms 2002 and 2003 respectively and knocked hard.
Shi Huan and Meng Yi came out to open the door wrapped in thick duvets. They had just woken up from the cold, but luckily they had extra thick duvets given to them by Su Keke and the others.
Lu Mei's family was also woken up by the cold.
When Grandma Qiao knocked on the door, Lu Mei and Chen Da had just put on their down jackets and were about to come out to remind Su Keke and Shi Huan's families.
"If you're still cold, find an iron basin and light a fire to raise the indoor temperature. Remember to open the windows a little while you're doing it, to avoid carbon dioxide poisoning."
"It's best for everyone to take turns sleeping tonight, leaving one person to watch the firewood basin."
After giving everyone a few reminders, Su Keke came back in a hurry. She was going to go out in the middle of the night to deliver cold-weather supplies to Lei Mu and the others.
I don’t know how they are doing now.
…
Lei Mu lives in Danshan Garden next to Tengda Community.
He and Su Jianming have a very good relationship. They both like fishing. When they have nothing to do, they will study together what kind of fishing rod is good and which places have fewer people but more fish.
Su Keke used the capsule house to quickly arrive outside Lei Mu's house.
This is a two-family building with one elevator. Lei Mu's family lives on the 10th floor. When Su Keke arrived, she knocked on the door hard.
"Boom boom boom! Boom boom boom!"
I knocked several times, but there was no response in the room.
Su Keke was worried that something had happened to them, so she wanted to use the space to go into the house and take a look.
Just then, a trembling voice came from inside the room.
"Who would knock on our door in the middle of the night, in such a cold weather?"
Lei Mu put on thick clothes and wrapped himself in a goose feather quilt, but he still felt cold all over.
"Could it be that the Shi family next door is here to borrow a quilt? Don't agree to it rashly. We only have these two thicker goose-feather quilts, and the other quilts are thin and light."
Lei Mu's wife was also wrapped in the same goose feather quilt. The two of them came to the gate tremblingly with flashlights.
Su Keke's hearing is better than that of ordinary people. She put her ear to the door just now and could hear the voices inside clearly. "Fortunately, they are all fine."
"Hiss..." Su Keke's mouth twitched, "This security door is really cold!"
Before the people in the house came to open the door, Su Keke placed all the warm clothes, food, vegetables, meat, water, and military rations in the space at the door.
Su Keke knew that Lei Mu’s son moved out after getting married, and only the two old people lived here.
There were five sets of thermal underwear for men and women, six down jackets, snow boots, thick socks, gloves, hats and scarves. I found several sets of them.
5 large bundles of wood for heating, 10 bags of 20 kilograms of rice, and 10 boxes of instant noodles.
The amount of vegetables and meat given was not much, probably enough to last for a month. Although it was extremely cold, Su Keke was afraid that they would go bad if they ate too much for too long.
50 packages of 5-jin military rations, 5 barrels of 19-liter drinking water, a gas stove, and a box of 30 gas cylinders.
If this corridor could hold more supplies, Su Keke would like to put more.
