Blackstone Code

Damn hypothermia is so deadly!

The woman was still shivering with a blanket wrapped around her body.

Heating has been restored, but because the hole opened by the missile was too big, and the heating system on the top four floors has collapsed, even if these people are placed in an area with heating capacity, they still cannot stop the cold invasion. .

Her head is still buzzing.

In her memory, it seemed as if everything had stopped on the morning of the day before yesterday.

Not long after receiving the food, the family was enjoying the quiet morning.

"Sunshine" rises from the ceiling, and everything seems to be getting better. The restlessness of the human world in the city seems to have returned.

She stood in front of the stove humming a ditty she used to sing. Breakfast was a sandwich. The toaster they had brought with them when they came here finally came in handy.

First toast the bread until both sides are crispy, then spread with butter, spread a layer of vegetable leaves, then fry the beef filling, spread it flatly, and finally add a piece of fruit.

A perfect, impeccable breakfast.

When the time pointed to half past eight, the whole family had already gotten up. They greeted each other like they remembered a happy moment in the past, and then sat at the dining table.

Everyone enjoyed this rare breakfast, reminisced about the best time, and chatted relaxedly.

"I heard that the shelter is starting to recruit workers."

The husband ate breakfast in small bites, unlike children who ate in big bites. He understood the value of food and knew that it should be treated more cherished.

Even if some burnt bread crumbs fell on the table due to tearing, he would lick his index finger with his tongue, and then put the bread crumbs into his mouth again.

After hearing this, the women were surprised and a little surprised, because having a job means having a stable income, so their lives will change.

It is no longer like in the past when a family can only rely on the most basic food security. That is really too bad.

"What job?"

"Mining, that's what I heard, and then building a factory."

The husband seemed to get excited talking about these things, "The whole street is talking about it!"

After they came here, they quickly developed a new social network, a social network centered on the streets. Residents of all the apartments on a street would spontaneously communicate with each other.

This is the only thing they can do when they have nothing to do.

The news came from these people. I heard that some factories were going to be opened in the shelter, but now there is no place to open a factory in the shelter.

Therefore, they plan to continue excavating from the last level to the surrounding areas and dig out some space for factories. This will also prevent pollution from invading residential areas in the shelter.

After digging, you need to build a factory, and then you have to continue exploring the surroundings, continue digging, mining minerals or other things, and workers are also needed in the factory.

A guy who seemed to have a lot of connections mentioned this. He said that he knew a big shot in the mid-level, and the other person talked about these things during the phone conversation.

The Shelter Alliance is looking to restore the overall industrial environment, with different work assignments for different shelters.

The population of the shelter here is relatively large, so some work quotas in heavy industry have been allocated.

After all, industry can't really work without a small number of people. Any industrial supporting equipment requires a lot of people.

If scattered over many different shelters, the mere transportation would be a drag on all industry in such bad weather conditions.

The Shelter Alliance also plans to regain the glory before the disaster and launch a sprint to a new peak!

The man even looked at his son, "You can also find a job with me then. If you say something else, I may not be your match."

"But for work, I can definitely be your teacher."

In fact, the younger son is not very old. His teenage years were a carefree stage in the past, but now, he also needs to take on the heavy responsibility of supporting himself and reducing family expenses.

The boy did not get angry when talking about entering the factory like in the past. In the past, he always imagined that he was the absolute protagonist of this life.

He will definitely prosper and become a big shot in people's eyes in the future, and what he needs to do is not even need to work hard, just wait for "tomorrow" and "beauty" to come.

Now that he has experienced so much, he seems to have recognized the reality and his own destiny. He is only his own protagonist, not the protagonist of this world.

The protagonist of this world is called Lynch, not him.

He nodded, "Okay, I'll go."

The man patted his neck happily. Perhaps the disaster had caused hardships to their family, but the growth of the children made the couple feel a different kind of relief and satisfaction.

The eldest daughter also pursed her lips and said that she would also look for a job.

Just as the family's breakfast was coming to an end and their thoughts about a better life in the future had just begun, suddenly everyone's movements stopped.

They felt an obvious vibration, like... an earthquake?

Can shelters withstand earthquake damage?

They didn't quite know it, but the family quickly ran outside the house and the street was already crowded with people.

Some gaps appeared in the sky, and some dust fell down. No one knew what happened.

Immediately afterwards, the sky seemed to... encounter some bad situation. It started to turn black from the beginning, and then a huge scream came from the distance.

The family subconsciously wants to escape from here. Even if they don't know what happened or what will happen next, they just want to escape from here.

But how can their speed keep up with the power outage?

Before they could figure out what was going on, the floor they were on was completely dark.

The family hugged each other, and the husband comforted his wife and family as much as possible. People kept bumping into them in the dark surroundings.

The husband could only rely on his memory to retreat to the wall, and then used his back to protect the family in his arms.

In the invisible darkness, every time he suffered a hit, there would be a look of pain on his face.

"It'll be fine soon, it's probably just a temporary outage."

There were also people shouting so loudly around. As the emergency power supply came into effect, many weak light bulbs lit up on the streets. People's emotions seemed to begin to calm down under this weak light.

Perhaps humans are also a kind of plant. Without light, they will feel fear.

No one knew what happened, but there were cries and voices calling the names of loved ones all around.

Everything happened in less than a minute, and some people disappeared from their families.

The cursing, the noise, it gave me a headache.

This bad situation lasted for a long time, and many people returned home, but some people decided to go to the stairs and have a look above.

So far, no one from the management office has come to explain the situation, which makes them very uneasy.

The family decided to stay where they were.

It lasted until noon. Several hours later, it should be noon, but there was still no improvement, and no one told them what happened.

To make matters worse, when the husband decided to sit down and take a rest, he discovered that there was already a thin layer of water on the ground.

"Whose house's water pipes are not turned off?", he asked, but the same thing seemed to be happening further away.

This made the crowd's mood start to become frightened, and the city, which had been quiet for several hours, became agitated again.

An hour later, the water level began to rise. Now everyone began to be afraid. A large number of people began to try to leave the city based on their memory of the city.

In fact, it is only a few kilometers away, and it only takes half an hour to an hour if you walk.

But it's too dark now, and the city streets are not straight.

Some people have to wait for rescue in place, and some people plan to leave this level.

The family also decided to leave, but they did not know the way to leave and just followed the direction of the large crowd.

I don’t know how long they have been walking, but the water has reached their waists and calves. Everyone’s emotions are on the verge of collapse.

They don't know if they can get out of here alive, and they don't know what happened!

There is no direction, only despair.

Much later, she was completely separated from her family.

She didn't know why, but she was pushed by the crowd to the "stairs" and ran upward numbly.

She thought her family was also in such a crowd, and she always comforted herself that the family would meet again up there.

But until now, she has not seen her family!

Husband, two adorable kids!

Everything was so bad, she looked up at the gaping hole in the sky, trying to find her family, but she had no strength at all.

She glanced at the old man beside her and pushed him gently, "Have you seen..."

As soon as she spoke, her eyes widened in horror. Under her gentle touch, the old man slowly tilted and then fell to the ground.

She reached out to touch it in disbelief, but the old man was already dead.

Tears instantly filled her eyes, and she covered her mouth tightly, sobbing.

This series of blows completely destroyed her faith and hope, and she seemed to understand something.

The cold was eating away at their bodies, and those damp clothes were like the invisible rope of death around their necks.

Some people have begun asking everyone to take off their wet clothes and wrap themselves tightly in dry blankets.

The woman looked at the people around her who were taking off their clothes without caring about other people's eyes, and she cried while taking off their clothes.

She doesn't want to die yet, she still wants to find her family, even if the hope is very slim!

Mr. Patu was sitting in the warm room, with a slight sweat on his forehead because of the overheated temperature. He unbuttoned his collar and cuffs, as if doing so could cool him down.

His subordinates reported on the progress of the rescue, and he nodded from time to time...
