The next day, the water and electricity in the community were cut off. Xiahe's house was very soundproof, so she couldn't hear any noise outside, but she knew that things were not peaceful outside that day.
To avoid others misunderstanding that she had died inside the house, Xia He had to go out and show her face today.
The rain has stopped today. The blizzard-like rain retreated silently last night when the extreme cold descended, leaving the accumulated water behind before making a grand exit.
Last night, a loud bang was heard in the sky, signaling the arrival of extreme cold! Of course, there was no loud bang, only the quiet after the torrential rain suddenly stopped.
Some night owls get excited when the splashing sounds outside their windows suddenly stop, but what follows is the rapid freezing of the water on the ground, which then solidifies into blocks, and those who are still asleep die peacefully with smiles on their faces.
People, sensing the approaching extreme cold, quickly put on warm clothes and huddled under the covers. They wanted to turn on the air conditioner, but unexpectedly, the power system had collapsed and the internet had also crashed. Families with many members huddled together for warmth.
In small families, one person might huddle in bed, praying for the sun to rise quickly the next morning. Some people even chopped up their furniture to use as firewood.
Some people who believed the apocalyptic rhetoric went out to stock up on fuel despite the sword-wielding frenzy, and were able to light coal stoves last night to get some warmth.
Xia He didn't fall asleep until 2 a.m. last night, so she slept until 11 a.m. today. When she woke up, Xia He drew back the curtains and saw a snowy world like smoke. Xia He felt like she had come to the legendary ice and snow kingdom. The perspective of her past life was different from that of this life.
Xia He stood on the 32nd floor and looked down. Because her eyesight had improved, she could see the 1st floor very clearly from the 32nd floor. The 1st floor was frozen over. The entrance to the community had become the windows on the 2nd floor. There were already survivors on the ice, walking onto the ice.
Some of the smarter people have already gone out to look for supplies. A week into the apocalypse, many supplies are still plentiful, and the atmosphere among neighbors is still relatively harmonious.
Xia He then prepared to go out and stock up on some supplies, but now the network was down, and without internet access, her phone was practically useless.
The store will only accept cash today.
Xia He wore a thermostatic undershirt, a camel hair sweater with excellent insulation in the middle, a windbreaker, and a very thick mink coat on the outside.
The pants were also made by wearing thermal underwear underneath and extra-thick fleece-lined camel hair pants on top. In other words, the pants were lined with fleece and wool, and the outer layer was pure black tight pants.
The camel hair fabric is very thick, but not bulky. Moreover, the thermal underwear is very close-fitting and lightweight. Although Xia He looks like she is wearing a lot, she can move around very easily without feeling tightness from wearing too much clothing.
For shoes, Xia He chose snow boots worn by polar explorers. The boots were very long, extending all the way to the knees and tightly wrapping around the calves.
Xia He dressed the two little ones in custom-made thermostatic clothing, covering their limbs, bellies, and heads completely, leaving only the area where they excreted uncovered.
She dressed the two little ones in mink coats, and put polar snow boots made by Xiahe, made of the same material as Xiahe's, on all four feet.
I found myself a hat that covered my ears, and then I took the two little ones out.
Because the elevator was out of power, Xia He had to take the two little ones through the emergency exit next to the elevator, which also had a custom-made door installed by Xia He.
