Chen Ruoruo also saw many people along the way. As the weather got warmer, more people came out to look for supplies during the day. They just looked at the off-road vehicles leaving quickly on the road with envy. No one came forward to stop the car, and she arrived near the reservoir smoothly.
From a distance, I could see that a lot of water had accumulated in the reservoir, but it had not yet overflowed and flowed downstream. I thought it was because she had previously stored all the ice blocks in front and behind into the space, so the water level rose relatively slowly.
But now the water in the reservoir is not clear but rather turbid, with all kinds of rotten leaves, branches, and even animal carcasses floating on the water.
As the car approached, there was a faint stench in the wind. Although it was not obvious, Chen Ruoruo still frowned. She closed the car window and continued to drive into the mountains.
As the weather continues to warm, all the melted ice water will flow into the reservoir, washing away the carcasses of animals that were frozen to death in the extreme cold. After that, the reservoir here will probably become a huge stinking ditch.
While Chen Ruoruo was using her consciousness to check the condition of the mountain, she was also planning in her mind. Although, after the arrival of extremely high temperatures, a large amount of water on the ground would be quickly evaporated, including the sewage in the sewers, it would not be able to take away the rotten and smelly corpses.
Under the influence of high temperatures, those smells will become more pungent and lasting. If you really live in such a place, even if you can avoid the high temperature and crowds, it will be endless torture.
Moreover, when the high temperature comes, the ice and snow will melt quickly, and there may be various mudslides, floods, etc. If it is not absolutely necessary, Chen Ruoruo will definitely not choose a place with rivers and lakes around. She has even subconsciously excluded these places from her alternatives.
A few hours later, Chen Ruoruo drove out of the mountains upstream of the reservoir and saw that the water level in the reservoir seemed to have risen a little. According to the current rising temperature and melting ice and snow, she felt that her time was more urgent and she had to find the next suitable place to stay as soon as possible.
Then Chen Ruoruo drove to her own community, Jinmao Hefu. When she came out, she changed into a new off-road vehicle and also spray-painted the off-road vehicle with various shapes.
Because her way back would pass through Wu Feng and his territory, she didn't want to be recognized and cause any more trouble. Fortunately, the journey was smooth. When she arrived near the residential complex, she saw many people still out looking for supplies. After storing the car in a space in a familiar hidden location, she walked back to her own residential complex.
Because the weather has been good in the past two days, the sunlight is rare and sufficient. Even though it is already seven or eight o'clock, it is still not dark. In the past, at this time of year, it would have been pitch dark all around.
When several people on the street saw Chen Ruoruo, they couldn't help but turn their heads to look at her a few more times, because in the apocalypse, it was rare for women to go out alone to collect supplies, and dressed so respectably. Chen Ruoruo quickly quickened her pace and entered the residential complex. After a few steps, she was met by someone who gave her a startle.
"..." Chen Ruoruo looked at the person in front of her and found that it was Aunt Liu, the resident downstairs who was driven out, but now she looked crazy.
"Ghost... There's a ghost upstairs... Hahahaha..." Aunt Liu's hands were shaking uncontrollably, her eyes staring at Chen Ruoruo with horror.
"..." Chen Ruoruo pushed the person in front of her away. Looking at Aunt Liu's appearance, she roughly knew what had happened.
She figured Liu Ming and the others should have broken through to the sixteenth floor and entered the seventeenth floor room, seeing what was inside. She just didn't see them losing control, which she felt a little sorry for. Chen Ruoruo was curious about the others, and the next moment she reached out to check on Building Eight and the surrounding area.
"There are no supplies upstairs, they're all fake, all fake... hehe..." Aunt Liu was not angry when Chen Ruoruo pushed her away. She just finished speaking mysteriously and then turned around to walk out of the community.
"Mom..." Wu Hao hurried over from the direction of Building 8. When passing by Chen Ruoruo, he paused in confusion. This woman looked very unfamiliar. It seemed that he had never met her before when he went out. He didn't know if she was a new guest. But before he could think about it, Aunt Liu in the distance ran away again, and he hurried to catch up with her.
Chen Ruoruo looked at the two people chasing out one after the other and shook her head. It was his own fault. This son was destined to be dragged down by Aunt Liu.
Then she walked towards Building 8, but she stopped halfway. She didn't expect that Li Jun and others were gathered in the house on the 17th floor. A group of people were knocking on the wall next to the door, and there was a loud noise inside and outside the corridor.
It turned out that Li Jun and the others were also very scared at first after seeing the situation in the room on the 17th floor, especially the noise they heard from the roof, the sleep paralysis they had experienced before, and the inability to open the door. It was difficult for them not to associate these things with the strange layout of the 17th floor.
After all, we all grew up in the vast and profound history of the Dragon Kingdom, and have heard many legends from the older generation. We are both afraid and in awe of these things.
However, among the few people, Li Jun was a bold and careful one. After a night, he took advantage of the daytime to go up to the 17th floor again and carefully checked the room.
Soon, he discovered a radial crack on the roof of the 17th floor living room near the balcony. In addition, he could not open the door of the 17th floor from the inside. Thinking of the elevator on the 18th floor that had not been deliberately erased, he further confirmed his guess.
Afterwards, Li Jun communicated his idea with Wang Hong and several other younger brothers. After listening to Li Jun's idea, everyone felt that it was very reasonable. Moreover, the people on the 18th floor had put so much effort into it that they even arranged the 17th floor into that appearance to confuse people.
They felt that someone on the 18th floor must be there, someone who was thoughtful and had ample supplies. They decided to take one last gamble, but this time they couldn't hold their composure any longer. They pounded on the wall anxiously, making quite a racket.
"Everyone take turns..." Li Jun
"Okay, Boss..."
Chen Ruoruo took advantage of the time when the group was busy and entered Building 8 and quickly went upstairs. When she reached the 16th floor, she looked at the wide-open door and the woman inside. She used her mind to push the door hard.
"Bang..." With a loud noise and strong wind, the door on the 16th floor was suddenly closed.
