Chapter 2: Damn, let me be the male lead
"Shiyi, I am reborn."
"Then you slapped the school bully 99 times."
"No, I'm serious. I'm really reborn. Believe me."
Hearing Jiang Xianchuan's serious tone, Shi Yi was a little hesitant, "Is this true?"
"It's almost four o'clock. There will be news about a 5.6-magnitude earthquake in S City. If you don't believe me, I'll wait for the news."
Neither of them said anything. After waiting for a while, a news report popped up on their cell phones that a 5.6-magnitude earthquake had occurred in S City.
"No? You are really reborn?"
Hearing Shi Yi's incredulous tone, Jiang Xianchuan felt inexplicably proud, "Humph, who am I? I am Young Master Chuan."
"Can you please tell me what's going on?"
"There will be a zombie outbreak at the end of this month. Get off work and go home so we can buy supplies."
"Zombies?" Jiang Xianchuan had told Shi Yi about his zombie dreams many times before. Because they had happened so many times, the two of them had discussed it many times and even made a list of things they needed in the end of the world.
"Yes, anyway, please come back from the company soon. I'll wait for you at your house."
After saying that, Jiang Xianchuan hung up the phone and took a taxi to go to the Shi family's house. After all, the Shi family had two households on one floor, three bedrooms, a living room, and two bathrooms, which was much better than the old and shabby house he lived in just for the sake of cheapness.
When they got home, Jiang Xianchuan had already optimized the list they had made before, "See if there is anything else to add."
"How did you come back to life? What happened?"
"I get angry when I think of this! I took you on a run and some psychopath played music on a drone. The drone followed us wherever we went and we were scratched by zombies."
When Shi heard this, he was so angry that he was numb. "What kind of person is this! So heartless! It's okay, things will change, and this person will definitely be in big trouble in the future!"
"Alright, forget about that. Now that you've been reborn, just take care of yourself. We'll divide the work and buy supplies later."
The two counted their savings, which added up to about one million yuan. This amount was far from enough to live comfortably at home, so they unanimously decided to take out a loan.
"I'm going to the wholesale market to buy some things first."
"good."
After Shi Yi drove away, Jiang Xianchuan looked at the doors and windows of his house, and then contacted several craftsmen to come and reinforce them. No matter what, they had to be reinforced according to the best specifications.
Jiang Xianchuan was not idle during the supervision. He contacted a second-hand furniture collector to take away the unused furniture in the house, freeing up a bedroom to use as a storage room.
After measuring the size, Jiang Xianchuan immediately contacted the merchant to make a storage rack, then cleaned the balcony and planned out space for growing vegetables and placing solar panels.
All the doors and windows were replaced in the afternoon. After Jiang Xianchuan paid the money, he ordered takeout and waited for Shi Yi to come back.
"I bought a lot of food and contacted the chef to deliver it to my door tomorrow. These are all kinds of medicines I bought, as well as iodine and alcohol."
"Okay, eat first and take a rest. I'll clean up."
Jiang Xianchuan wrote the expiration dates of various medicines with a pen and pasted them on the shelves. "Oh, if only there was space, then I wouldn't have to worry about not having enough space in the house."
As soon as he said this, the medicine in his hand disappeared immediately.
"What the hell? Are you hallucinating because you're tired?"
Jiang Xianchuan didn't believe it and took another box of medicine. This box of medicine disappeared inexplicably again. Just when Jiang Xianchuan was having a headache, a panel suddenly appeared in front of him.
It clearly said [Medicine] Ibuprofen x1, Antipyretic Medicine x1. Jiang Xianchuan rubbed his eyes and found that the panel was still there, so he found Shi Yi.
"Can you see this thing in front of me?"
"What? There's nothing."
Okay, it’s confirmed. Only you can see it.
Did I come back with some golden fingers or something? Is it my turn to be the hero of a novel?
Then Jiang Xianchuan thought about taking out the antipyretic medicine, and the box of antipyretic medicine appeared in his hand. He silently said in his mind to take back the antipyretic medicine, and the box of antipyretic medicine disappeared. Instead, the panel had the option of antipyretic medicine.
Oh no, I really became the hero of the novel, I really have super powers.
"Shi Yi, let me tell you something that is extremely outrageous but very true."
"Go ahead."
“I seem to have supernatural powers.”
After hearing this, Shi Yi suddenly felt that the rice in his hand was no longer delicious, and he immediately walked over, "What kind of superpower is it? Let me take a look."
Jiang Xianchuan pointed to the pile of medicines that had not yet been put away, and then the pile of medicines disappeared immediately.
"That's about it."
"Awesome, really awesome, are you the space expert in the novel? This is too amazing, can we put all the supplies we bought in it?"
"That should be it? But I don't know how much capacity it has."
"It's okay. You can pack as much as you want. If there's not enough space, you can put it at home."
Jiang Xianchuan nodded, but he was still curious: if he put the items inside, would the speed of time passing be the same as outside?
In order to get the truth, Jiang Xianchuan took a bottle of ice water from the refrigerator and put it inside, intending to take it out the next day to see what the temperature was.
The next morning Jiang Xianchuan took out the bottle of water and found that it was still at the same temperature as when he put it in yesterday. So, does that mean that time does not pass inside? Or does it mean that time passes more slowly inside?
He told Shi Yi about his discovery, "Well, let's study it slowly later. Now let's go buy supplies first."
