Chapter 38 Heavy Snowstorm
After saying that, she turned around without hesitation and knocked on the door opposite Qin Xingyue, giving up her plan to look for Qin Xingyue.
Those people who usually have such good tempers are so fierce today. That little girl is usually so fierce. If I go to find her now, who knows if she will just chop me with a knife.
Qin Xingyue saw the scene clearly through the camera. She shrugged and smiled. As expected, no one would bully her if she was a little fierce at that time.
On the contrary, the more honest you appear, the more people will think you are easy to talk to, and they will find this person to bully.
Well, that’s good. I wasn’t aggressive enough before, so I must continue to work harder to be more aggressive in the future.
Many people thought that this time would be the same as last time and the power would be restored the next day. Therefore, this time, everyone was much calmer than the last time the power outage occurred and the emotions were not as intense.
It wasn't until the next day when the internet and electricity were still not back on that everyone started to panic again. However, without the internet, they couldn't contact the outside world, nor could they vent their anger in the owners' group. They could only shout out the window.
Qin Xingyue could hear the sound of cursing intermittently throughout the whole day. Later, she simply put on headphones to block out the outside sounds, and the world became a little quieter.
The snow clearing activity organized by Sister Lin could not be carried out because the snow was getting heavier.
With such heavy snow, there is a real risk of freezing to death if going out. Besides, even if they take the risk to go out and clean up the snow, what's the point? The snow is so heavy that once the accumulated snow is cleared, it will be immediately covered by heavy snow. Even when they are cleaning up, the snow will fall again after they have just cleared a little bit. It's just a waste of effort. Therefore, let alone other people, even Sister Lin herself remained silent and didn't say anything more.
On the second and third day, the internet and electricity were not available, and everyone was cursing at home every day, and the cursing became more and more intense.
However, this time, no matter how much they cursed, no one paid any attention to them. After a few days, not only did they not get internet and electricity, but they also had no water.
Now, everyone couldn't stand it anymore. In such a cold day, some people left the community and found the property management to curse them, but the property management could do nothing about it.
In the beginning, the property management would explain to everyone, but later on, they just gave up and stopped caring about anything, and sometimes they would even directly quarrel with the troublemakers.
In their neighborhood, quarrels can be heard every day, which is quite entertaining. Qin Xingyue stands in front of the window and watches, treating it as a play and is very happy.
Now that there is no internet, watching a play live is a great way to entertain yourself.
In a few days, we might not see any quarrels anymore. She estimated that most people’s food supplies would not last long, and by then, they might not even have the energy to quarrel.
Days passed by, and it is still June, which is a hot time of the year, but now it is snowing heavily. It is almost the second half of the month, and the snow not only shows no signs of stopping, but is getting heavier.
Now, the Internet and power are out again. Everyone has been panicking for a long time. These days, everyone has cursed and vented their anger, but it is of no use. Gradually, everyone has begun to accept it.
They even believed the doomsday rumors on the Internet and regarded the present as the end of the world.
If it wasn't the end of the world, how could we explain all these weird things happening now?
As Qin Xingyue had thought before, now, even quarrels no longer happened. No one went to the community anymore. Most people stayed at home. Occasionally, someone went to someone else's house to visit and chat, and no one knew about it.
So, the community, which had been in chaos for several days, returned to peace.
Qin Xingyue saw all these changes in the community clearly. Every day, she would spend some time to understand what was going on around her before doing her own things.
Apart from that, she lives her own life every day, eating when she should, drinking when she should, exercising when she should, and learning medicine when she should. In the rest of the time, she would go into the space to plant crops, watch TV series, and play single-player games.
These days are like starting retirement life in advance.
Now in the community, except for her who can still have three meals a day, most other people can't even have two meals a day. They only have one meal a day. Even this meal has changed from several dishes and one soup before to one dish and one soup now. Some people with poorer conditions have even started to cook porridge or eat rice alone.
In the current situation, even if there is still food stored, people dare not eat it freely. They just maintain eating every day to maintain their vital signs.
No one knows when this heavy snow will stop. Everyone has given up hope and must leave themselves a way out.
“Ah ...
One morning, a scream was heard in the community, breaking the silence of the morning.
The noise continued, and from the panicked voice, Qin Xingyue understood what had happened.
It turned out that there was too much snow and the windows of the two households on the first floor could not bear the weight and were collapsed. A large amount of snow rushed into the two households on the first floor.
There are two households on the first floor. One household has six people, and three generations of their ancestors live together. The other household has three people. The three people in the family are relatively young, with the parents in their thirties or forties and the child in his teens. They reacted quickly and rushed out of the house at the first opportunity. No one was hurt, but the house was completely covered with snow, and a lot of furniture was damaged, making the house uninhabitable.
The situation of another family with three generations of ancestors was more miserable. The two elderly people were slow to move, and the heavy snow buried them the moment it came. When the young couple reacted, they quickly rushed out with their two children in their arms.
The man just noticed something happened at his parents' place and turned around to look. This distraction almost killed the father and daughter. Fortunately, the man reacted quickly and threw his daughter out. His daughter was safe, but most of his body was buried under the heavy snow.
Now, the wife was digging the snow non-stop, while making miserable cries for help, which attracted many people. Seeing this, everyone joined in the rescue.
Qin Xingyue didn't say anything when she saw this, but when there was no one around, she took out a shovel from the space and joined the team digging people out.
Seeing her like this, everyone thought of tools and went home to get them to start digging her out. The woman cried and thanked everyone.
For a moment, everyone worked together, and it was quite exciting to watch.
The man was dug out, but he had been trapped under the snow for too long. His face was blue and purple, and he was very weak. His legs were numb. I don't know if he will recover after some time.
