Chapter 230: Extremely Hot. An Untimely Knock on the Door
The boss lady thanked her profusely for arranging a birthday party for her, and they survived the natural disaster thanks to the supplies purchased at that time.
Chu An was also very pleased, but the fact that they could hold on until today was due to their own abilities. Her suggestions could only help them get through the rainy period.
While waiting, several people talked about the shelter and the base again.
The proprietress said that most of the people outside the shelter were owners of the first phase of the base. There was an explosion on the day of the unveiling, and all those who escaped came to the shelter.
The shelters were full, so the higher-ups advised them to go home. Some of them did, while others set up sheds outside.
How glorious it was then, how miserable it is now.
The proprietress suddenly lowered her voice, "I heard that a cordon has been set up around the entire base. No one is allowed to go there. Almost half of the city has been closed off."
Chu An was shocked. There was no explosion in the previous life, and everyone checked in smoothly. When she asked again, the landlady didn't know the specific reason, and reminded her not to ask, because it was strictly forbidden to discuss this matter.
Chu An nodded. It seemed that if he wanted to know more information, he had to find Li Qing or Huo Sisi.
It was finally their turn in the registration line. Gu Ye filled in both of their information. When they left the registration center, the proprietress asked them where they lived, but Chu An was unable to answer for a moment.
"Your uncle and I work in the kitchen of the shelter. If you have nowhere to go, we can help you build a shed nearby. We can also send you some food from time to time so that you can take care of each other."
"Thank you, Auntie. We have a place to stay." Gu Ye answered for her.
"Is there really a place to live?"
Chu An quickly took over the conversation, "Really, don't worry, Auntie."
Before leaving, Chu An wanted to remind her to stock up on ice. But then he thought, there are no secrets in the shelter, and stocking up on ice may cause them to suffer an unexpected disaster. Besides, the shelter will also find a way to solve this problem. In the previous life, there seemed to be a huge reservoir here, which later supplied water to the base.
The two left the shelter. Chu An asked Gu Ye to go to the seventh area first. However, due to the explosion at the base, it was designated as an isolation area and was not allowed to enter by the armed police guarding it.
"Xiao An, you can also go around from the highway into the city." Gu Ye reminded in a low voice.
"Let's go to the villa first."
It was getting dark, and they had to find a place to stay. And Gu Ye had been driving most of the way back, and his dark circles were almost as dark as a panda's. And her body was a little overwhelmed.
Gu Ye turned the car around and drove towards Xiangshan. When he arrived at the villa area, it was already dark.
He found the house his mother left behind based on his memory. Fortunately, it was not flooded, but unfortunately, the key did not work.
The door has an electronic lock, and Chu An has never learned how to lock it. That's easy, so he took out the USB charging cable and power bank and started charging.
The two of them squatted at the door like two door gods, and when the progress bar turned to 1%, they immediately entered the password 1021. All of Gu Ye's mother's passwords were Gu Ye's birthday.
Now Gu Ye has learned how to miss his mother, and that is to live a good life.
Sometimes when the two chatted, they would talk about their mothers. Chu An had no impression of this at all. Old Chu didn't want to talk about this topic before. Gu Ye would talk about how much his mother doted on him, and he couldn't stand it.
After opening the door, the room looked like it was just being handed over, with no furniture or appliances. The two walked around and found that the back window was broken, indicating that someone must have been inside.
With the lesson learned from Luo Gou, the two of them checked carefully twice and only sealed the broken windows with wooden boards after making sure that there was really no one there.
The two cleaned out the third floor and used it as the main living area.
There are three rooms and a large living room on the third floor. Two people will live in each room, and the remaining room will be used as a kitchen. As for the first and second floors, they can be left as they are for the time being.
Chu An took out all the household appliances and food that could be used. Gu Ye started cooking while she made the bed, dividing the work and cooperating with each other.
After the meal, there was no need for any greetings. They just exchanged glances and went back to their rooms to sleep.
Chu An entered the space and saw Guo Changren mixing feed for chickens, ducks and geese.
Mr. Guo woke up 10 days ago. He has been educated on space knowledge by Chen Xun and is currently accepting it well.
He had no idea about Lao Chu. The two of them had last contacted each other a year ago. Lao Chu asked him about the Situ family and said he wanted to pursue their eldest daughter. He also asked him to go to City C to see his daughter when he had time.
Chu An pulled Shen Xun aside, "You didn't tell him about his lover, did you?"
"I didn't say it, but he seems to have sensed it a little bit." Shen Xun said helplessly, "He will ask you sooner or later, you'd better think about what to say in advance."
Guo Changren is different from Shen Xun. He is a sentimental and extroverted person. He can praise anything in the space, saying that it is the habitat of elves abandoned in the human world, and they are all elves in the space now.
After knowing that Shen Xun was an undercover agent, he was even more respectful and wanted to make a portrait of him that would last for thousands of years. Shen Xun politely refused, and then gave him the task of taking care of the chickens, ducks, geese and rabbits.
Shen Xun found those wild animals in the mountains. Those that were alive were doing well and quickly adapted to life in the dwarf forest. The dead were placed in the maple forest.
Guo Changren was happy to interact with small animals and would go to the mountains to sketch in his spare time. He was a bit talkative and talked all day long, but he never asked when his lover would wake up.
He also saw the bodies of Grandpa Gao and Grandma Xia, and would spend two hours every day reading to them and various small animals, regardless of the subject matter or content.
In this respect, Shen Xun is somewhat similar to him, both like reading.
Chu An greeted Guo Changren and continued to meditate beside Zi Liu. He had been using his time in the space recently to improve his mental strength.
This trip gave her a new understanding of her abilities. In addition to attacking, she must also protect herself. If she can drive the purple willow at will, she can not only attack but also protect, killing two birds with one stone.
When she was about to wake up, she returned to the rest area and found Shen Xun holding his chest and gasping for breath.
"What's wrong with you?" Chu An hurried over.
"My heart is a little uncomfortable, and the closer we get to City C, the worse it gets."
"Take a good rest in the maple forest and don't go to the mountain." Chu An couldn't explain why this happened, so he could only let him stay in his comfort zone.
The next morning, Gu Ye and Chu An would rather go hungry than not stay in bed. They lay in bed until noon, when they came out dressed.
They smiled at each other, understanding each other tacitly.
"What do you want to eat for lunch?" Chu An asked casually.
"Let's have some noodles with soybean paste. It's simpler."
"Okay. The shower in my room is fixed now, so you can go to my room if you want to take a shower."
Gu Ye's eyes suddenly lit up, "I'm going to take a shower now. I feel so uncomfortable."
The two of them usually wash once every three days when on the road, and yesterday they were too tired so no one mentioned it.
He ran in and out again, "I'll wash and cook noodles, wait for me."
Before Chu An could say anything, the big dog rushed in.
She smiled and shook her head helplessly, and started frying the stewed meat and cooking the noodles. When Gu Ye came out, the fragrant noodles with stewed meat and stir-fried shredded potatoes were already on the table.
Gu Ye gave her a thumbs up. They sat down and had just taken two bites when the door on the first floor was slammed loudly, and there was an impolite question, "Is there anyone in there? Come out quickly."
Gu Ye was about to stand up when she held him down, "Let's talk after dinner."
The two of them continued to eat peacefully. It was impossible for anything good to happen if they gave up at this time. After finishing their meal, they also had some fruit. When they felt that it was about time, they went to open the door.
