Chapter 13 Acid Rain
Yin Shan returned home and took a shower. He found that the temperature had risen again recently, and there were also apocalyptic theories on the Internet. Yin Shan looked at his mobile phone. According to the timeline of his previous life, there was less than half a month left until the end of the world.
Yin Zhiwen came down from the rooftop and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his daughter was unharmed. He then used his eyes to stop Yin Shan from asking questions and asked, "Did you buy it?"
Yin Shan saw the look in his father's eyes and glanced at Guan Yunhua. His mother must have known about his father's service in the New Dragon Gang, but she clearly didn't know that Yin Zhiwen had let her do such a big deal without telling her. Yin Shan tactfully said nothing more, simply taking out the gun, bow and arrow, and knife he had bought.
Yin Zhiwen and Guan Yunhua had obviously gotten used to Yin Shan taking out strange things at any time, but when they saw the weapons Yin Shan took out, they were still surprised for a moment.
Guan Yunhua was excited when he saw the recurve bow. He walked over and picked it up. Then he walked to the target that had been set up nearby with the bow and arrow, drew the bow and shot the arrow.
Yin Shan watched the arrow hit the ten rings and knew that although Guan Yunhua had not touched a bow for many years, his basic skills were still there. Now the distance was relatively close. As long as Guan Yunhua practiced more and used the physical enhancement fluid to transform Guan Yunhua's body, hitting the target from a hundred paces away should be no problem.
Yin Zhiwen, on the other hand, remained relatively calm. Now wasn't the time to practice shooting. He simply told his daughter, "The apocalypse won't be long. Go out for a walk with your friends, see the final peace and prosperity, and take some photos."
Yin Shan listened to Yin Zhiwen's words with sadness in her eyes, so she prepared to call Wang Lu and Hou Ting to go out. Before leaving, Yin Zhiwen glanced at his wife who was excitedly trying out arrows, and quietly took out a card and handed it to Yin Shan: "This is for you by the bill. It says it's a reward for helping to solve the problem. Don't just stock up on the basics, buy some more that you young people like, so you don't have to worry about them going bad." Then he gestured to Yin Shan with a number 2. Yin Shan knew it, it seemed to be another 2 million.
The previous money had been basically spent, weapons were a big expense, and in addition to making anti-corrosion materials for the entire building, Yin Zhiwen and Guan Yunhua purchased some more supplies according to the list.
Yin Shan took Wang Lu and Hou Ting to the night market, preparing to have a big meal before the end of the world.
Hou Ting is an optimist. Standing in front of the night market, she made a bold statement: "Today I am going to eat up all the food I will earn for the next 30 years!"
Wang Lu was thinking about something at the side. Yin Shan asked her, "What's wrong?"
Wang Lu was silent for a long time, then asked slowly, "Will there be Coke in the future?"
Yin Shan: I have a thousand MMPs in my heart, but they are not worth saying...
Yin Shan knew she had stockpiled enough cola for her three best friends, her father's favorite beer, her mother's favorite drink, tea, and cigarettes—plenty. But there was no way around it; some things just couldn't be said.
Yin Shan looked at the night market stalls and suddenly thought it would be a good idea to store more prepared foods in her space. So, while her best friend was out shopping, she ordered a lot of malatang, barbecue, fried rice, and cakes from the food delivery platform. Yin Shan decided to order a batch every day until the acid rain came.
After calling Guan Yunhua to tell her that a lot of delivery guys would be visiting soon, Yin Shan no longer thought about anything else and enjoyed the last bit of peaceful life with her best friend.
This week, Yin Shan and the other two walked through the streets and alleys, just to remember this prosperous era deeply.
Yin Zhiwen had been living in a suburban warehouse during this time, assembling the firearms that Yin Shan had brought back from the ship. Every night Yin Shan would go over and store the firearms in the warehouse.
The remaining materials are some machine tools, some for making canned food, some for making masks, and basically covering all walks of life. Yin Shan also put them into the space, thinking that they might be useful in the future.
Ever since Yin Shan got the bow and arrow back, Guan Yunhua has returned to his old profession. Apart from walking the dog and cooking, he spends the rest of his time practicing.
Three days before the end of the world, Yin Shan stopped going out and started downloading video materials. After the end of the world began, the network would be interrupted, and Yin Shan wanted to keep as much as possible.
On the third night, it suddenly rained. Yin Shan frowned. It should have taken a few days for acid rain to fall. Yin Shan opened the window and smelled the smell of raindrops. He knew it was indeed acid rain. The end of the world had come early.
Yin Shan called Wang Lu and Hou Ting, and felt relieved when he knew they were both at home. He told them not to go out for a few days, and then hung up the phone after acid rain started falling outside.
Yin Shan logged onto Weibo and saw the topic of acid rain trending the most. Some experts said the concentration of acid rain was low, wouldn't significantly affect the human body, and wouldn't last long. Many believed it, while others didn't. Meanwhile, officials issued a notice, notifying all workplaces to work from home, closing schools, and suspending bus and subway services. Residents were also reminded not to go out unless necessary.
At this moment, Yin Shan's phone rang. It was Lu Yunchao. Yin Shan raised an eyebrow and answered the phone. Lu Yunchao's voice, pretending to be anxious, came from the other end of the phone: "Shan Shan, acid rain is coming. Are you back?"
Yin Shan didn't want to waste time arguing with him. If this person hadn't called, Yin Shan wouldn't have even remembered that he existed, so she said, "I'm home."
Lu Yunchao: "I'm glad you're back. You don't know how worried I am about you!"
Yin Shan sneered. He had been on a "business trip" for so long, and Lu Yunchao seldom called him. The occasional greetings were about caring about the progress of the bank loan. He said he was worried about him, but it was simply because he thought the natural disaster was temporary and he was still thinking about the money.
Sure enough, Lu Yunchao asked Yin Shan, "Shanshan, has the loan been approved? Our project is about to start."
Yin Shan answered him: "Not yet." Then he hung up the phone, making the excuse that he had just arrived home and needed to clean up.
On the other side, Wang Yun asked Lu Yunchao, "How is it going? When did that little idiot say the money would arrive?"
Lu Yunchao said, "She said she hasn't, and she just came back. Don't worry, I'll urge her again in a couple of days. Yin Shan is easy to fool. She probably got caught in the rain when she got home."
When Wang Yun heard that Yin Shan had been caught in the rain, she immediately cheered up: "It's acid rain, she might be disfigured. You should get the money quickly and dump her!"
Lu Yunchao listened to Wang Yun's words and nodded.
Here, Yin Shan found Yin Zhiwen and asked him, "Dad, what does the official say?"
Yin Zhiwen was surprised. Yin Shan should have known more about what happened next than he did, so why would she ask him? But he began to speak, "Acid rain was followed by heavy rain, just as you said before. Is there any problem?"
Yin Shan frowned: "The time is wrong, it's early."
Yin Zhiwen was slightly surprised when he heard this. Guan Yunhua then spoke up, "Maybe it's the butterfly effect. Although we moved at this time in our previous life, you also said that Wang Lu and Hou Ting were missing. You've changed a lot in this life, so it's possible that the details are different from your previous life."
Yin Shan listened to Guan Yunhua's words, frowned slightly, and then said, "Acid rain will last for three days, then stop for half a day, and then heavy rain will come again, and it will continue for three months."
Yin Zhiwen said, "Officials are predicting heavy rain after the acid rain, but they haven't said how long it will last. Generally speaking, there won't be much change. But as you said, we need to take action once the heavy rain starts."
