Chapter 61 Rest



Chapter 61 Rest

Jiang Rong was somewhat stunned by this sudden change.

The whole room was pitch black, without a single ray of light.

Zhao Runguo hurriedly took out a high-intensity flashlight from his backpack and turned it on, and the light in the room became brighter.

"Bang!"

Then, just as the light came on for a moment, the only small window in the room was violently hit by the mutant beast outside.

Seeing this, Jiang Rong could only forcefully carry the little boy from the closet and the baby's body that he was holding tightly in his arms.

The little boy's reaction was very slow at this moment, and he basically did not resist Jiang Rong's approach.

After Jiang Rong picked the man up, he called to Uncle Zhao who was standing beside him: "Uncle Zhao, let's go back to the top floor first. There are blackout curtains on the windows over there."

Zhao Runguo nodded immediately after hearing this, then he made a hole in the wall and went straight to the 25th floor with Jiang Rong.

About three minutes later.

Jiang Rong stood breathlessly at the stairs on the 24th floor, holding the child.

Afterwards, she handed the child in her arms to Zhao Runguo who was on guard nearby, and then took out the key to the iron gate at the corridor entrance from the gem space.

For the sake of safety, and to prevent the four houses from being occupied by other people, she asked Xin Jue to install two large iron doors at the entrance of the corridor leading from the 24th floor to the 25th floor.

All the keys were in triplicate, one for each of her, Cai'er and Xin Jue.

Fortunately, there were no mutant beasts in the stairs at the moment. Jiang Rong quickly opened the two iron doors, and after Zhao Runguo passed smoothly, he locked the doors again.

After a while, we reached the top floor.

Then Jiang Rong randomly selected a house on the right, opened the door, and walked in. It was also pitch black inside.

Jiang Rong shone a flashlight and found that all the windows were covered with light-proof cloth, and the glass itself was also covered with a layer of light-proof and anti-peep film.

Only then did she and Zhao Runguo feel comfortable and boldly turn on the lights in the room.

Each house here has a rooftop terrace, which is equipped with solar panels, a solar water heater and two large water tanks.

Moreover, these things had been installed earlier, and in case they broke down in the future, Jiang Rong would still have at least 20 to 30 copies in stock in his space.

The installation is rather troublesome. If you don't know how to do it, you have to figure it out step by step.

After Jiang Rong and Zhao Runguo rested in the living room for a while, they turned their attention back to the motionless, dazed little boy sitting on the sofa.

Jiang Rong glanced up and down his body, but because he was wearing too many clothes, he could not see anything except his head.

Therefore, Jiang Rong could only infer from his relatively intact face that this little guy might be a person with special abilities.

There were just a few red marks on his face, but no area was actually corroded.

If it were an ordinary person, it would be difficult to maintain such a state without other means.

Jiang Rong looked at the little boy's dazed look, thought for a while, and then took out a handful of chocolates from her pocket. There were about six or seven chocolates in a handful. She had just received them from the underground mall.

Jiang Rong picked one, opened the package, and fed it directly to the little boy.

The little boy was quite cooperative with eating. Jiang Rong fed him and he ate. Seeing this, Jiang Rong opened two more and fed them all.

She just saw downstairs that next to the little boy there was a can of almost empty milk powder, a few unopened biscuits and two kettles.

The kettle is almost empty.

Therefore, Jiang Rong suspected that he might be a person with minor water-related abilities.

Otherwise, for a month and a half, we could roughly guess that the food was milk powder and biscuits, but what about the drinks?

"Uncle Zhao, just pick a room and rest up. I'll take care of him."

Seeing that the child was quite cooperative, Jiang Rong turned to Zhao Runguo and said, they were both tired after a long day, and there was no need for both of them to stay here to take care of the child.

Zhao Runguo nodded slightly when he heard this, and then followed Jiang Rong's instructions to find his own room.

This house has two floors. The first floor has three bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen and a bathroom. The second floor is a small attic and there is also a half rooftop.

Jiang Rong left the child alone on the sofa in the living room and placed some snacks next to him.

Then I went to the bathroom and tried to turn on the water heater in the bathroom, but there was no water.

Then you can only use the gas tank in the kitchen, which may be slower.

But they are not in a hurry to go anywhere right now, mainly because they don't know what the situation is outside.

Jiang Rong had no impression of this sudden approaching darkness, as he had never experienced it in his previous life.

Jiang Rong could only attribute it to starting over in a new life, and some things might have changed quietly.

Now that this has suddenly happened, Jiang Rong has no idea whether the changes will become greater and greater in the future.

All we can do is take it one step at a time.

The water heater in the house won't work for the time being, but the heating will.

So before long, the temperature in the living room gradually rose.

At the same time, the body of the baby that the little boy was holding began to thaw gradually, and the stiff body began to soften, but because it was still short, no strange smell was emitted.

While boiling water, Jiang Rong persuaded the little boy to put down his sister.

However, the little boy's reaction was very dull, and he hugged the body even tighter.

Jiang Rong had no choice. She couldn't force this matter, so she could only take out a large freezer from the space, turn on the power, and as a second choice, let the little boy put his sister's body in the freezer.

"If you don't put it in, it will become smelly when the temperature rises, then it will rot, and finally melt. Then it will be really gone." Jiang Rong felt that it was useless to talk nicely, so he could only threaten her, while also telling the truth.

Only then did the little boy show some emotions in his eyes, anxiety and fear.

Finally, with Jiang Rong's assurance, the baby's body was placed in the freezer.

Jiang Rong looked at the freezer with some regret, it was useless.

The hot water was lacking for more than an hour, and it took almost two large buckets of water to boil.

Jiang Rong replaced the water, continued to boil it, and asked Uncle Zhao to help watch the water.

"Let's go, I'll take you to take a bath." Jiang Rong reached out to the little boy.

The little boy was still in a daze, and Jiang Rong called him for a long time but there was no response.

"If you don't take a shower, you will smell and your sister will dislike you." Jiang Rong used the same trick again.

Then he watched the little boy look up with a dull look in his eyes, but he took the initiative to hold Jiang Rong's hand.

Jiang Rong sighed inwardly, probably because he was too shocked, and he didn't know how long it would take for him to recover.

Afterwards, Jiang Rong took the person to the bathroom. The child looked no more than six or seven years old, much younger than her brother. Plus, she might not have eaten much for more than a month, and now she was just skin and bones, extremely skinny.

Jiang Rong had prepared the water, soap and clothes in the bathroom in advance.

There were four large barrels in the space inside, two for hot water and two for cold water, and a large red clinker basin for bathing.

These were all taken from the space temporarily by her.

Although the water heater in the bathroom could not be used, the light was warm. After it was turned on for a while, the temperature inside was about the same as outside. If you took a shower with hot water, it wouldn't be too cold.

Jiang Rong didn't expect the child to be able to wash himself, so he went into the bathroom and took off his thick clothes layer by layer, then began to wash.

After using four buckets of water, Jiang Rong managed to wash the little boy clean, and then put new clothes on him. He then dragged him outside, picked a small room, laid a thick new quilt, and left him alone. Finally, he pushed the large freezer containing his sister's body into his room, and then Jiang Rong closed the door and went to tidy himself up.

Xin Jue installed air conditioners in every room of the penthouse suite, so Jiang Rong didn't have to worry about him getting cold.

Jiang Rong put all of the little boy's original clothes and bath water into the space, and specially set aside an empty space in the space to put the garbage.

The temperature outside is so low right now that they can't drain the water out. If they pour it down, it will probably freeze halfway.

Jiang Rong had just spent more than an hour giving the little boy a bath, so there was no need to wait now as the water had already been boiled.

"Xiao Rong, you take a bath first. After you're done, take a good rest." Zhao Runguo watched Jiang Rong bathing the little guy for so long. He thought she must be very tired. Naturally, she would not care about these things at this time.

Jiang Rong was not polite about this.

Hearing this, he nodded and turned into the bathroom with his clothes.

I washed for about half an hour.

She put all the dirty clothes into the space. After washing them, she said hello to Uncle Zhao and returned to the room she had tidied in advance. She lay down in the thick and soft quilt, and soon her breathing gradually became stable.

Jiang Rong didn't know how long he slept, but when he woke up, it was already the afternoon of the next day.

And he was awakened by hunger.

When I woke up, my stomach was still rumbling.

Jiang Rong's room had a window facing outwards, right next to the bed, and the lights were not on in the room at that time.

Jiang Rong felt his way to the blackout curtain by the window and pulled it open.

However, both inside and outside, the surroundings were still pitch black, the kind of very dense black that would make people feel inexplicably depressed, heavy, and uneasy.

Jiang Rong put down the blackout cloth, turned on the warm light in the room, and looked at the watch on his right hand, which showed that it was 4 o'clock in the afternoon.

It's quite unusual that it's so dark outside at this time.

Jiang Rong sat quietly on the bed for a while, thinking that if the situation outside could not be resolved in a short time, then the possibility of her and Uncle Zhao returning from the underground was very high.

Then the answer is, very little.

It was so dark outside that they wouldn't be able to tell the direction after going out.

At this time, Jiang Rong had to be thankful for his "caution" and "foresight".

Before she came out, the supplies she left for the family were enough for Grandma Cai'er and the others to use for at least half a year.

If half a year has passed and the weather outside has not returned to normal, Jiang Rong will definitely try to go back no matter what.

It should be at least a month in advance, so that she and Uncle Zhao have a chance to try and make mistakes.

After Jiang Rong had an idea in mind, his attention was drawn back to his rumbling stomach.

After being busy outside for so many days, today was the day she slept most comfortably.

Jiang Rong was in a good mood after a good sleep, so she decided to make a good meal. In addition, she saw that the little girl was very thin, so she might as well make something to nourish her. Maybe after nourishing her, she would be more awake.

It's not a good thing for him to stay in this daze all the time.
