Everyone stopped laughing when they saw Li Xue talking about serious matters.
Chen Tang smiled gratefully at Li Xue: "I called yesterday and told my dad about the mutant rats. The zy base hasn't encountered mutant rats yet, but the situation there is not good either, and many places have been flooded. Fortunately, when we built the resettlement site here, I asked him to make preparations in advance, and the drainage system there is very complete, so the situation at the zy base is not too bad."
When Li Xue was preparing for the heavy rain, Chen Tang called Commander Chen. Commander Chen was a cautious person. Seeing Chen Tang talking to him about these things so seriously, combined with the weather conditions at the time, he also asked people to start preparing.
Li Xue nodded in relief: "That's good."
"Alas, I really don't know how long this rain will last? If it continues like this, I'm afraid many places will be flooded." Qin Kai sighed.
It has been raining for almost half a month. Even some places in the Hope Base have been flooded. You can imagine
what happened to other bases. Hu Zi said: "In the past, I always looked forward to the rain, so that everyone could stop their work and have a good rest. But now I feel something is wrong, and I always want to find something to do."
Since the rain, all the work in the Hope Base has stopped. The people in the base are basically idle, and only the logistics department is still operating normally, even busier than before. Because of the continuous heavy rain, the people did not have enough fuel to cook, so Li Xue asked the logistics department to cook meals for everyone in the base. Cooking for more than 200,000 people is a big project, but fortunately the food is relatively simple and not too troublesome to prepare.
Everyone was worried when they thought of the heavy rain. I really don't know how long the rain will last.
Zhou Dafu hurried over with an umbrella.
As soon as he entered the house, he said to everyone: "Something big happened at H base!"
Everyone looked at Zhou Dafu curiously. Although the heavy rain flooded the road between the two bases, Zhou Dafu was still able to receive news from H base. I don't know how he did it? Whenever they asked this question, Zhou Dafu would smile and say, "The mountain man has his own tricks."
Lin Miao said, "What happened? Is Xie Bin dead?"
Everyone: ...
Zhou Dafu shook his head, "A few days ago, the H base was attacked by mutant rats."
Chen Tang said, "Tsk, what do I think? Weren't we also attacked by mutant rats yesterday?"
When everyone heard this, they were not very interested.
Zhou Dafu saw that everyone was not very interested, and then said, "Then do you know how many people died after the H base was attacked by mutant rats?"
"How many?" Chen Tang asked.
Zhou Dafu compared with his hands and said, "One third, nearly one third of the people were bitten to death by mutant rats."
Jian Hui exclaimed, "My God, one third, isn't that nearly a million people?"
Zhou Dafu nodded.
Everyone was a little scared. Nearly a million people were killed by mutant rats. What a serious accident.
Li Xue was also very surprised: "How could so many people die? What happened to H Base?"
Zhou Dafu said: "The entire H Base was flooded. The people in Area D were all squeezed into Area C and Area B. When the mutant rats attacked, there were almost no people who escaped from those crowded houses."
In just a few sentences, everyone could imagine the bloody scene at that time.
"What was Xie Bin's reaction?" Li Xue asked again.
Zhou Dafu shook his head: "Except for comforting the survivors whose family members were killed by mutant rats, H Base did not seem to report this matter to ZY Base, as if they wanted to keep it secret. Moreover, I received news that the current food crisis of H Base has been resolved, and those mutant rats that were killed have become new food."
"Could it be that Xie Bin thought that the death of so many people would just alleviate the crisis?" Lin Miao said.
Everyone was silent, but this was not impossible.
Soon, the people of Hope Base knew about the incident of H Base.
While everyone sighed for the bad experience of H Base, they were glad for their decision to come to Hope Base. It is said that those who died in H Base this time were basically all ordinary people in D District. If they had stayed in H Base at the time, they might have died in this accident in H Base.
Chen Tang immediately called Commander Chen to tell him about the H base and asked him to pay attention to the mutant rats. He also told Commander Chen about Xie Bin's attitude towards the H base matter. As for how the Zy base would deal with Xie Bin, she didn't know.
Li Xue was a little depressed because of this matter and didn't smile the whole day.
This made Xiangdong anxious .
"Wife, what's wrong with you? Can you stop looking so sad? It hurts me." Xiangdong was afraid that Li Xue's mood would fluctuate too much, so he hurried to comfort her.
Li Xue pulled the corners of her mouth but did not laugh: "Xiangdong, I have been thinking today, if we sold the food to Xie Bin a few days ago, would there be no such trouble? Would those people not have to die?"
Xiangdong smiled helplessly: "Silly wife, so you are thinking about this. Listen, the death of those people has nothing to do with you. They did not die because of lack of food, they were bitten to death by mutant rats because of improper protection of the H base. Don't blame yourself for their death, this matter has nothing to do with whether you sell food or not. relationship. Even if you sold them enough food before, they would still be bitten to death by the mutant rats. In the final analysis, this matter can only be blamed on the inadequate emergency measures of the H base. "
Li Xue nodded: "I also know that this matter has little to do with me, but I always think that if everyone has no food in the future, and I am guarding the great treasure of space, watching so many people starve to death, I will have a heavy sense of guilt. Xiangdong, I want to use space to help those who want to survive." Li Xue said at the end, a little excited.
Xiangdong patted Li Xue's hand quickly: "Let's talk about this later. This heavy rain will stop one day. Maybe after the rain stops, the world will return to normal? It may even be better than before the end of the world? Wife, don't worry about it. The only thing you have to do now is to take good care of the fetus and try to give birth to a healthy, plump baby."
Li Xue nodded with a strong smile.
For some reason, she always felt that the world would become worse in the future. After this heavy rain, there must be more serious things. What the little charlatan Chenxi said to her might be true.
She has been feeling more and more anxious recently, and always feels that something big is going to happen.
Seeing Xiangdong's worried look, Li Xue had to temporarily put aside her worries and smiled at Xiangdong: "Don't worry about me, I'm fine."
Xiangdong nodded: "Wife, don't think too much, I'll take care of everything."
