Chapter 105 Coercive Measures, A Dim Future



"We expect the temperature to drop another 10 to 20 degrees Celsius tonight. It's no longer suitable for one person to survive outside. All those stranded outside must be taken to shelters. This is a mandatory measure. Please cooperate," the enforcement team member replied.

“I’m perfectly fine living in my own home. I don’t need to move to the shelter. Please go back.” Since there are many people, there’s bound to be trouble. Li Ke still didn’t want to go, so she pretended not to understand and replied.

Suddenly, a tall figure came into Li Ke's line of sight from outside the blind spot. Even with a thick mask on, his voice was still deep and cold: "Don't you understand the coercive measures? If you don't obey, your corpse can also count as a contribution point."

Xiao Yi's cold gaze pierced through the security door bars, looking at Li Ke opposite him. Their eyes met, and Li Ke tightened her grip on the crossbow.

If Xiao Yi hadn't been there, Li Ke was confident he could have escaped unscathed by just a few ordinary law enforcement officers.

Li Ke, who was familiar with Xiao Yi, knew that although Xiao Yi was standing very relaxed opposite her, she knew that she had become his target and that if she made any move, she would immediately become his deadly victim.

The two men stared at each other across an iron gate, and the atmosphere became somewhat tense for a moment.

Li Ke wasn't confident he could eliminate everyone in front of him in one fell swoop, and there was also the extremely troublesome Xiao Yi. Even in a one-on-one fight with Xiao Yi, Li Ke wasn't 100% sure he could win.

Moreover, Li Ke would not reveal his personal space unless he was absolutely certain of success.

This was the first time in her life that she had faced Xiao Yi directly. Based on her understanding of him, Li Ke felt that she might be being targeted by this man, probably because of that doomsday prophecy.

Mo Qing and Xiao Yue's marriage was an arranged marriage between families, but Mo Qing is a rare and responsible good man. Since marrying Xiao Yue, he has devoted himself to managing his marriage and family business, which is truly rare in their circle.

Xiao Yue is two years older than Mo Qing. She comes from a good family and is very well-mannered. However, after giving birth, she developed some health problems. She can't stand noise or being tired. When she feels unwell, she becomes somewhat depressed.

She has been diagnosed by many doctors and it has been found that she has some neurological problems, including depression, which is a mental health issue that requires long-term treatment and rest.

This kind of mental illness is difficult to manage in a family like theirs.

However, before the tsunami struck, Xiao Yue's health suddenly deteriorated, preventing her and her husband from returning to China in time. They had no choice but to send their child and all their assets back to China ahead of schedule.

As early as when China was negotiating with the United States, demanding that the United States stop its actions that were destabilizing the seabed of the Pacific Ocean, the Mo family already knew that the doomsday prophecy had been confirmed. At the same time, the family also followed China's lead and took proactive measures, organizing all assets in advance and carrying out rapid and effective stockpiling of supplies.

When Li Zhenzhen and her two children came to her door, Mo Qing had originally planned to return to China a week later. However, the air pollution abroad was more severe and the environment deteriorated more rapidly, which caused Xiao Yue, whose health should have stabilized, to experience discomfort again.

The return to China was postponed again. It wasn't until three weeks later, late one night, that Mo Qing finally led everyone onto a plane and secretly returned to China.

The plane landed in F City, the ancestral home of the Mo family, and Li Zhenzhen and her two children were temporarily settled as guests at the Mo family's residence.

Mo Qing told Li Zhenzhen that if she could contact her husband, he could arrange for their family to reunite.

Li Zhenzhen didn't intend to cling to Mo Qing. Originally, she went to see Mo Qing out of necessity. Li Zhenzhen knew that with the Mo family's methods, if they really investigated her thoroughly, many of her secrets would be lost.

Although the old woman from the Mo family hired people to humiliate her, she also gave her a large sum of money to shut her up. Later, she took Li Ke to the old woman again and extorted another sum of money from her.

She had already received enough money from the Mo family. Li Zhenzhen knew that sometimes one should not be greedy, otherwise one would only suffer losses.

However, what Li Zhenzhen did not expect was that the situation in China was also continuing to deteriorate, and worst of all, they lost contact with Chen Niansheng.

Li Zhenzhen and the others also tried to call Chen Ziyue and the others, but the signal in their area was probably bad, and they couldn't get through.

The city of F, where the Mo family lives, is severely corroded by acid rain, with rainwater flooding streets and houses. The national and local governments are working together to organize the evacuation of all residents.

Unable to contact Chen Niansheng, Li Zhenzhen and her two children had no choice but to temporarily follow the Mo family's troops. The migrating troops eventually stopped in an ancient city that was constantly windy and deserted.

As the rain gradually stopped, the Mo family, in cooperation with the government, began to build a winter shelter. Knowing the harsh environment and difficult situation, Li Zhenzhen knew this was not the time for them to enjoy themselves, so she took the initiative to bring her daughter Chen Jiaojiao to join in the coordination of the shelter.

Even though Chen Qi was physically weak, after his health improved, Li Zhenzhen helped him find a job that required him to do inventory and record-keeping without speaking.

Thanks to the protection of the Mo family, the three of them, though penniless, were actually living a remarkably easy and comfortable life under such difficult circumstances.

Recently, Chen Jiaojiao has become very close to Mo Qing's daughter, Mo Bao'er. Mo Bao'er is the same age as Chen Jiaojiao, only a few months younger. She is also an innocent and lovely girl who is very easy to get along with.

Mo Bao'er has a younger brother named Mo Cheng, who is fifteen years old this year. He is at a somewhat awkward age and doesn't like to be with girls.
