Chapter 5



Two hours after the heavy rain, the drainage system of City C was completely paralyzed. The streams that were originally only calf-high gathered into an ocean in the blink of an eye, and yellow-brown water gathered in the entire city.

Some people were struggling while holding onto electric poles, their faces filled with despair and fear; some people were frantically trying to retreat to higher ground, stepping into puddles with each step, and finally climbed to higher ground in time.

However, there were more passers-by who had no time to escape. They were swept into the water by the powerful flood and disappeared in an instant without even being able to shout for help.

Tragedies unfolded one after another in an instant. City C, which once gave people warmth and support, was now like a hell on earth.

Cries for help continued to ring out downstairs. Lin Xiaojuan couldn't bear to watch and turned to go to the kitchen. Song Tianyuan also shook his head and sighed how cruel the world could be.

In order to prevent her parents from being affected by the outside world, Song Yue drew the curtains, turned on the TV, and used the TV volume to cover up the noise outside.

However, the two of them did not feel relieved. Even though there was a light-hearted comedy movie on TV, they could not hide the sadness on their faces.

Song Yue understood them. Anyone facing the cruel end of the world would need time to digest it.

Fortunately, Song Tianyuan and Lin Xiaojuan have good adaptability. They can even accept the fact that their daughter is reborn with a golden finger. What else is there that they can't understand?

In the following time, Song Yue found that Song Tianyuan and Lin Xiaojuan tried their best to communicate with her in a relaxed manner. Although it still seemed a little reluctant, there was no big problem overall. They ate the delicious food she took out from the space every day, and after finishing their work, they watched TV or slept.

The small home is filled with a simplicity and warmth that is completely different from the outside world.

Two days later in the early morning, after confirming that the two people in the bedroom next door were fast asleep, Song Yue returned to the room, locked the door, and officially logged into the dungeon.

When Song Yue opened her eyes, she found a frighteningly pale face approaching her.

She was startled and her pupils narrowed. Only then did she see clearly that the person staring at her was the original owner's best friend in this copy - Zheng Yuexi.

Zheng Yuexi was dressed particularly exquisitely today, with colored contact lenses, earrings, a necklace, a tight suspender, a hip-hugging lotus leaf skirt, and strappy stilettos... Items that she was embarrassed to wear in school before, she wore them all this time during the free time organized by the art academy teacher.

Zheng Yuexi's appearance was pretty good, although she was half a head shorter than the original owner and her skin was a little darker, but fortunately she put a lot of effort into dressing up this time, so when she stood in front of the original owner who was known as the beauty of the art academy, she was not inferior at all.

Under normal circumstances, Song Yue would never say anything about this kind of outfit, but she knew that a disaster was about to happen here, and it would definitely be inconvenient for Zheng Yuexi to dress like this.

Out of consideration for her friend, Song Yue tried to remind the other party.

However, just as she was about to speak, the system suddenly appeared in her mind: [Host, no super-game comments are allowed in this instance. Violators will be warned for the first time, and will be punished by having their life points deducted for the second time.]

Super-game speech refers to the use of knowledge or opinions that the current character should not have during the role-playing process.

For example, the flood that Song Yue wanted to mention just now violated the original owner's role setting in the copy. The original owner did not have the prophetic function, and if she said it out loud, it would be considered a super game.

After hearing the system's prompt, Song Yue had to stop.

She thought about it, since saying it directly doesn't work, then maybe hinting in a roundabout way will work?

So he changed the topic and said, "Yuexi, I'm not feeling well, so I won't be going to Qianhe Island. Can you stay with me?"

Zheng Yuexi let out a cry. Although it was obvious that she was trying hard to control her emotions, her subconsciously furrowed brows betrayed her true thoughts.

"Xiao Yue, why are you sick at this critical moment..." Zheng Yuexi bit her lower lip, her tone revealing dissatisfaction, "You know very well that today is very important to me..."

Is it important to Zheng Yuexi?

Song Yue was stunned for a moment, then realized something from the character identity information - Oh, today is the day Zheng Yuexi confessed to Jing Xiao, a junior at the Academy of Fine Arts.

Jing Xiao is handsome, has a good family background, and has strong professional skills. He has always been very popular in the college. Zheng Yuexi has wanted to confess his love for her for a long time. She finally seized the opportunity to go out for field research today. Song Yue judged that the other party would not listen to her.

As she expected, Zheng Yuexi continued, "Xiaoyue, I'm sorry, I can't stay on the shore because of you. I have to go to Qianhe Island."

Since she couldn't persuade her, Song Yue didn't force it. She was just a passer-by in this copy. The information she knew was given by the system. She didn't really have any deep feelings for Zheng Yuexi.

So he smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, I can just go back to the hotel and rest."

Just as he was about to leave, a voice suddenly came from the side: "Song Yue, Junior Sister? What a coincidence, seeing you here."

Before Song Yue could turn her head, she noticed that Zheng Yuexi's expression had changed.

Well, she seemed to know something.

"Senior Jing." She responded calmly without any emotion.

Not to be outdone, Zheng Yuexi followed suit and said hello: "Hello, Senior Jing!"

Unfortunately, the latter just glanced at the former indifferently, and his eyes finally fell on Song Yue.

Classmates from the same college kept passing by behind me, and they talked loudly and openly, as if on purpose.

"Her again? This female sea king is never done. It's not enough to have hooked so many rich men. She even reached out to Senior Jing Xiao."

"Isn't it just because my family has a few bucks, tsk tsk."

"Rich people are just different. They have double eyelid surgery, nose implants, and even their hairline is artificial. I don't think there's a single part of her body that's real, haha."

"A plastic surgery bastard like this is worthy of standing next to Senior Jing. It's disgusting."

All sorts of unpleasant words reached the three of them. Zheng Yuexi blinked and said soothingly, "Xiaoyue, they are impolite and casually discussed this in front of you. Please don't take it to heart."

Song Yue gave her a meaningful look and said with a smile, "Of course I don't care. I have plenty of money anyway. Next time I'm not satisfied with something, I'll go to the plastic surgery hospital and continue."

She spoke with full confidence, as if to say, "I have money, and you can only watch me do whatever I do." This made Zheng Yuexi speechless.

Seeing that the sky near Qianhe Island was gradually getting darker, Song Yue didn't want to waste time with this group of people anymore. After saying that, he went straight to the hotel without looking back.

On the way back to the hotel, Song Yue figured it out.

The identity of the so-called "good friend" given by the copy is totally untrue. The only part of the original owner that was changed from beginning to end was the hairline, and the area that was changed was very small. It was simply because the original owner had too much money and had no place to spend it, so he just found a project to do.

The original owner of this information only told Zheng Yuexi, but all the girls in the college knew about it, and even made up stories about double eyelid surgery and nose bridge augmentation. It is obvious who is the driving force behind this.

It's a pity that the original owner had a straightforward and simple personality, and easily regarded Zheng Yuexi, a scheming woman, as a good friend. It was not until her appearance that the hypocrisy was torn apart.

But none of this matters anymore. Right now, she has to hurry to the supermarket to buy some goods, and then find a way to leave Qianhe Lake area and go to a safer higher place, so that she can spend a month safely in the dungeon.

Fortunately, Qianhe Lake District is a famous tourist attraction and there is no shortage of supermarkets. Song Yue ran directly to the nearest one, rushed in and started shopping.

Start with 10 boxes of 5L drinking water, each box contains 4 barrels. The average person consumes 1L to 1.3L of drinking water every day. 10 boxes of 40 barrels is 200L, which can last one person for up to 200 days and at least 153 days. It is completely sufficient in the dungeon.

When the copy is over, she can bring the rest back to reality.

When she thought of her parents, Song Yue suddenly became full of energy.

With the help of supermarket staff, she pulled 10 boxes of drinking water to the parking lot behind the supermarket, and easily transferred the water into the space under the cover of an SUV.

In order not to take up too much space, she stacked up 10 boxes and placed them next to two barrels of diesel. The fresh food and takeout she had bought in real life were placed in order by category on the shelves next to them.

This shelf is given free of charge. It is 1 meter wide, 3 meters long, and 5 meters high, with a total of 5 layers. Currently, the fifth layer and other positions are still empty.

Thinking it would be a waste to leave it empty, Song Yue exited the space and went straight into the supermarket to start shopping.

She was extremely thankful that the original owner of this copy was not short of money. When she swiped the card just now, she found that the balance on the card was more than one million!

How much stuff can you buy with this? It would be a waste if you don’t spend it!

Since she had already purchased some grain, oil, rice and flour before, Song Yue only made a symbolic addition this time, buying about 20% more of each item. Most of the remaining energy was spent on purchasing women's products and clothing.

For example, I had limited funds and rarely bought any women's underwear before, but this time I bought 50 bras, 100 packs of underwear, 100 packs of socks, 10 sets of pajamas for different seasons, 10 sets of warm clothes, and 5 pairs of sandals and slippers. I also bought 10 boxes of sanitary napkins and panty liners for day and night use.

In addition, there are replacement clothes, including 30 tank tops, 30 short-sleeved and 30 long-sleeved T-shirts, 20 hooded and hooded sweatshirts, 10 jackets, 10 sweaters, 10 cotton-padded coats, 5 woolen coats, 10 plush hats, 10 pairs of hiking boots, and 20 pairs of thin and fleece-lined loose casual pants.

The shelves provided by the system were definitely not enough to hold all these, so Song Yue piled up the supplies he bought later on the ground, so that they only occupied the height but not the length and width.

However, even though she organized it properly, the 125 cubic meters of space was almost full. Song Yue thought about it and finally went to the hardware store next door to buy some tools.

To save trouble, she directly asked the boss for a complete tool kit, which included reinforced ropes, tape measures, wrenches, screwdrivers, nails, pliers, shovels, electric saws and other items.

After doing all this, Song Yue found that the weather outside had completely changed.

The heavy rain pounded the concrete ground and the lake surface wantonly, and the strong wind blew violently, overturning many small stalls on the shore.

There were bursts of screams coming from the lake not far away. They were the tourists on the boat shouting. Even if a sightseeing boat was carrying more than 10 people, it could not withstand the waves below.

Soon the first boat was overturned by the strong wind, and the people on board fell into the water screaming!

Seeing this, nearby boats threw out lifebuoys, but the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the lake was turbulent, so the people who fell into the water couldn't grab the lifebuoy at all. Soon Song Yue saw that some people couldn't hold on and their heads never appeared again.

The lifeguards on the shore wanted to drive a boat to rescue, but as soon as they started the boat, a wave came towards them and the lifeguards' boat turned over in the water!

"Oh my God, the lifeguard's boat capsized! This is too scary!" The tourists hiding in the shops looked terrified.

"Isn't Qianhe Lake an inland lake? How can it have such huge waves?"

"Look at how heavy the rain is and how strong the wind is. Even a puddle would be splashed! Let's hide quickly. We can go out when the rain stops."

Tourists who were unaware of the truth were still praying to God to stop the rain soon, but only Song Yue knew that the rain would probably never stop.

The next moment, someone in the store exclaimed.

"Look! Qianzuru Lake is starting to flood!"

"Flood, it's a flood! Everyone, run! The flood is coming!"
