Survival [End Times]

After a day of noise, even other rooms on the eleventh floor were occupied. The soundproofing of the room was good, but the noise from the outside was too loud, and Yu Heng could hear it in the room.

In the evening, Wu Chunyan and others counted today's harvest in the warehouse, and everyone had a happy look on their faces.

"It would be great if more people came to stay." Zhuang Xiaoyan said happily, "These food are enough for us to eat for half a year!"

The accommodation fee they offered was not high, but it was not enough to resist the large number of people! Although some people were unwilling to pay the rent and wanted to live for free at the beginning, the people who came first and paid the rent were unwilling to do so, and they didn't have to do anything, and someone stepped forward to help suppress it. In the end, the food was collected smoothly, and keys were issued to each family.

Although a few families were really annoying and asked for towels and extra beds at once, the harvest was considerable, and they were happy even if they were tired.

The most important thing was that they rented out the house for a month.

"The Wu family only gave so little, and they wanted to live indefinitely. We are losing too much." Chen Qiao said. Comparison brings dissatisfaction. Even Liu Guohui, who had been trying to smooth things over, felt that Chen Qiao was right.

"How about we tell the Wu family that we will only rent it to them for one month, and they will have to pay the accommodation fee again next month?"

Zhuang Xiaoyan didn't care. Anyway, there were so many rooms, and renting them out would also bring in considerable income.

Wu Chunyan said, "We have agreed to let them stay until the manager comes back and reopens the hotel. Business should be kept."

"But it's so cheap for them?" Chen Qiao was still thinking about the milk powder. "One more can of milk powder is fine." She muttered.

Wu Chunyan glared at her, and Chen Qiao became honest again. Zhuang Xiaoyan looked left and right, wondering what the two were talking about.

Someone outside was calling them, and Wu Chunyan said, "You go out first and see what's going on."

Suddenly so many people moved in, each with their own needs, and the four of them were busy until midnight before they stopped.

The noise next door finally disappeared, and Yu Heng breathed a sigh of relief and fell asleep.

"Bang, bang!" Just after falling asleep, he was awakened by the knock on the door. Yu Heng got up alertly and heard the sound of someone turning the handle.

It was too quiet at night, and he could hear the conversation outside.

"I've said it before, we still have to go downstairs to find those waiters. These rooms are usually locked, how can they be opened?"

"Hey! I just want to save some trouble! If you can open it, just take the quilt directly! It's freezing. Do you remember which floor the waiter said they live on?"

"It seems to be the fifth and sixth floors... I forgot which room it was."

"Let's go, look for it one by one."

Yu Heng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Others downstairs were going to be in trouble. He sighed, but he couldn't sleep. In the last mission, he went out on many missions after joining the army. Zombies might approach him halfway through his sleep, and that alertness was brought here.

He heard the movement outside, and he knew that Zhang Tao and Wu Changxin were sleeping soundly without even turning over. He couldn't help but envy. Zhang Tao said that he and he would take turns sleeping on the sofa, and he would sleep on the bed tonight. Unfortunately, he was not sleepy at all.

He put on his clothes, opened the curtains and opened the window, and a very cold wind hit him. The sound of rain was also heard in his ears, and there were thunder and lightning outside, and dark clouds were rolling, which looked ominous. I don’t know how much the water level will rise when I get up tomorrow.

Although I live on the eleventh floor, no matter how much it floods, it will not flood - if it floods, I really don’t want to live. But with heavy rain and low temperatures, I can’t go out to find food. The food will be gone in three months. What should I do then? Will the orderly production be restored by then?

These are all unknowns.

Not wanting to think about it anymore, Yu Heng took off his clothes and lay back on the bed. After a while, he finally felt sleepy, but he heard a shrill cry and a terrible cry. In the middle of the night, even Yu Heng, a big man, felt very creepy.

“Brother! Brother Zhang!” Wu Changxin was frightened awake and shouted in panic.

Yu Heng and Zhang Tao hurried to Wu Changxin's room, "What's wrong?"

"Brother, what's that noise outside? It's so scary." Wu Changxin calmed down when he saw his relatives.

"I'll go and see."

"I'll watch Xiaoxin."

Yu Heng put on thick clothes and went down with a flashlight. The crying sound came from the fifth floor. The woman's crying was too miserable. She cried and called her name.

"What's wrong?" Yu Heng saw Wu Chunyan standing next to him and walked over to ask.

Wu Chunyan was also wearing a coat, and it was obvious that she came out in a hurry: "The child of this family is gone."

Yu Heng also heard a man next to him talking loudly, sounding like the idiot who had just knocked on his door.

"I just wanted to find the waiter, but I knocked on the wrong door. I didn't expect this family to be so sound asleep that they didn't even know their child had a fever... Open the door for me! As soon as I left, they started screaming inside, which scared me... bad luck!"

"My child! My child!"

More and more people were woken up and gathered on the fifth floor.

"Oh, why is it so miserable?"

"Did it get soaked in the water today?"

"It should be. The water is cold, how can a child bear it!"

"The parents of this family are so careless. They fell asleep and didn't even know their child had a fever."

"Shh!" Someone stopped them. If the child was crying so miserably, don't say these hurtful words. Isn't this making the parents even more miserable?

But someone familiar with them blamed them: "Hey, swimming in the water in such a cold weather, how can a child bear it? You can't let the child go in the water!"

The woman stopped crying and screamed in surprise: "My baby is swimming?! How is it possible? I put him in the basin and asked his father to pick him up at the hotel. The basin is so deep that he can't go in the water!"

Because the child can swim, she was worried that the child would play, so she specially found the deepest basin in the house for him to sit.

"Then... I did see it. Your husband was right next to him. I couldn't be wrong. That was your son, swimming."

The woman turned her head stiffly and saw her husband holding the son born by the mistress and coaxing him. The child was frightened and cried miserably. Her husband coaxed him distressedly, as if he had forgotten that their biological son was lying on the bed with a stiff body.

"Ah! Wang Ziyong, I will fight you!" The woman rushed over and bit him.

"Hey! Li Li, why are you crazy! Let go!"

"You killed my child! I want you to pay with your life!!!"

The old lady of the family also got involved, and the scene was in chaos.

Everyone was sighing, and some people who were curious asked the insider: "What happened?"

The insider didn't know that what she said would lead to such a result, but she did regret it. If she had known that she had seen it, she should have gone over to pick up the child. Maybe if she had been in the water for a shorter time, the child would still be there?

She also felt that the husband of that family was hateful, so she told him everything she knew.

It turned out that the husband of this family had a lover who gave birth to a child for him. The child was born in the same year and month as the son of this woman. This matter was only exposed a few months ago. The woman was starving to death and came to seek refuge with the child. At that time, a big fight broke out in that family.

"My neighbor is kind-hearted. He drove the woman away and left the child behind."

According to this neighbor, the man was a softie. In the past, the family relied on the woman to earn money to support the family, and after the drought, the woman also relied on the woman to go out to find food.

"How could I know that he would let the child go into the water?"

"Bao'er wanted to go down, and I couldn't stop him!" The man defended, "He has never been more obedient than Beibei. Look at Beibei, he just stayed in the basin motionless when I told him not to move."

These words of defense were like cutting the woman's heart. For the first time, she hated this innocent child. He made her husband have evil thoughts.

She also hated herself! Why was she so busy for the food, for the so-called rations for a family of five, that she didn't take care of the child herself.

She hated her mother-in-law even more. She used the excuse that she was too tired to help her take care of the child, but she watched the child die without telling her. If she hadn't closed the door and went to see the child, she might not have found out until tomorrow!

The mother-in-law was still saying something about another child, and for the sake of the child, she shouldn't quarrel anymore. Even if she had developed some feelings for the child after taking care of him for the past two months, this was not her own child!

The woman exploded, picked up the broom behind the door and beat people, not even her mother-in-law. The crowd was stunned, and they didn't recover until the man and his mother were kicked out and the door was slammed shut.

After watching this farce, Yu Heng walked back with a sigh. Behind him, there was the cry of a woman, the scolding of a man, and the cry of a child.

Such a couple... He thought of his parents. From childhood to adulthood, he had never seen his parents quarrel. The two of them discussed things and lived in harmony. In his childhood and the life after childhood, he never knew what troubles were.

He stopped and showed a horrified expression on his face. Those memories of his hometown were a little blurred. The idea of ​​wanting to go home that he had been restraining was like a weed entangled in his thoughts at this moment.

He walked hurriedly and hid in the corner to call rt9009.

"When can I go back?"

"In fact, the host usually has a chance to go back after completing a task."

"Then why didn't you tell me before?" Yu Heng's heart was pounding, and he regretted the opportunity he missed last time.

"Even if the host goes back now, what can he do?"

Yu Heng's hot brain calmed down. Yes, even if he went back last time, what could he do? Could he exchange for the genetic improvement fluid that Cui Nan ate, or have the strength to protect his family? He could do nothing.

It was a completely unfamiliar world. He needed common sense and other specific understanding of that unfamiliar, primeval forest-like plane, and he also needed force, food and medicine, so that he could survive among the strange species.

"Moreover, once the host dies in the real world, if he wants to keep his soul and sanity, he can only wander in different mission areas in the future, and he will definitely never be able to go to the real world again. By that time, even if the host is already very powerful, who can you protect?"

Yu Heng smiled bitterly: "Has your company provided you with relevant training? You have a good brainwashing ability."

rt9009 was quite proud, and even the mechanical sound was rippling: "Of course! In order to enable the majority of hosts to maintain a healthy and positive attitude and seriously devote themselves to the mission, our Jinjiang company has conducted relevant training for each system, striving to play the role of life mentor and psychological counselor of the host, helping the host get rid of confusion and find the direction to move forward! This is the purpose of our company's service."

rt9009's words made Yu Heng's mood brighter.

"Host, do your best."

Yu Heng smiled: "Well, I will, thank you 99."

rt9009 didn't know if he was shy, and disappeared without responding to the nickname Yu Heng gave him.
