Chapter 7 Preparing for the Storm
After working hard for half a day and confirming nothing was missed, I finally felt relieved.
I locked up my Childhood Friend's empty house and returned to my own to wait in peace.
It was already dark outside.
I knew there would be countless battles ahead.
I needed to rest and recuperate.
After exchanging safety with my parents, I charged all three power banks from my Childhood Friend's house and my own two.
Then, I organized the currently available supplies and hid some in the master bedroom, guest room, and living room.
I cooked a large pot of rice and stir-fried the remaining green vegetables and a chunk of potato with bacon.
I started eating with great relish.
In my previous life, on the third day of the Torrential Rain, there would be power and water outages.
On the fourth day, the internet and natural gas would be cut off.
That was why Xu Hui became more and more anxious, firmly believing that I was blocking her from going to the Zero-Yuan Purchase, preventing her from being the female lead in the Apocalypse novel, and even killing me in the end.
But I believed the Apocalypse was just fiction.
I didn't expect the Apocalypse and didn't want to be the so-called savior or female lead.
Because I had parents and friends...
I wanted to live to see them.
Now, with the Torrential Rain across the country, official manpower was insufficient, but they were definitely on their way.
I believed I would wait for the rescue.
What I could do now was to try my best to save myself and hold the line of humanity.
Not causing trouble, not fearing trouble, protecting myself.
Thinking about these things, I didn't dare go back to sleep, afraid I wouldn't hear outside noises in time.
So, I brought a quilt and held the Tang Sword, dozing off lightly on the sofa.
I don't know how long I slept, when I was woken by a tragic scream.
This sound pierced through the rainy night, eerie and abnormal.
