Chapter 534 Treasure Chest from Heaven(1/2)
Chapter 534 Treasure Box Dropped from Heaven
The sun has come out, and the scorching sunshine of midsummer continues to bake the earth. The city shrouded in high temperatures has not returned to the bustling traffic of the past. There are still few vehicles and pedestrians in the streets and alleys. The doors of every shop are closed, and pairs of eyes are still in shock.
Peering through the window screen at the street outside, everyone is like a frightened bird.
Basic life security such as the Internet, water supply, and electricity have also been fully restored. Perhaps they have never been interrupted. People turn on the TV and can finally see people instead of stereotyped snowflakes.
Press conferences about the Great Fog are being held all over the world. People are waiting for another explanation and are eager to know what happened in the past half a month.
"...Abnormal weather of unknown causes swept the world. The earliest discovery and record was in Hardness. At 20:00 45 minutes and 31 seconds on the evening of July 1, 2023 local time, a local scientific research observation and recording equipment recorded the earliest occurrence of fog.
The first record that occurred in China was 24 minutes later than this record. Preliminary speculation is that the fog originated from hardness, which may be related to population density and cultural traditions."
"...Thank you for your question. We are organizing an expert group to find the cause of the Great Fog...So far, no definite evidence has been found to prove that it comes from online. It is unscientific to force it to be related to players and tourists.
What is irresponsible is artificially creating tension and causing unnecessary division and ethnic antagonism..."
"...Judging from the known phenomena that occurred in the foggy period, it is unnatural and does not follow known scientific principles and mechanisms. It is seriously biased towards idealism, that is, it is highly related to people's thinking activities and states of consciousness.
.”
"...The reason why there are unrealistic, imaginary, and unrealistic things that are well known to the public needs to be analyzed on a case-by-case basis. In short, please don't panic. There is no evidence to prove that it will appear again..."
"...During the great fog, we did our best to organize manpower and material rescue..."
That's it?
That's it?
People stayed glued to the TV for a long time and didn't want to leave.
The press conference was held in a hurry and ended in a hurry, giving people the feeling of being half-hidden with a pipa. Usually, a hot spot, after the official statement comes out, various interpretations, all kinds of hype, and all kinds of improvised performances will follow one after another.
Come here, even if you don't hesitate to spread rumors, you also want to take advantage of this hot spot and gain some attention.
But this time, after the press conference, there was nothing on TV or on the Internet, not a single one.
Obviously so many people are concerned, searching, and looking for answers, even if they are fabricated, even if they are being peddled... No, there is none.
External network too!
Anyone who knows a little bit about association will shudder.
"It is said that the bigger the issue, the shorter the news."
"It's already this time and you're still kidding?"
"What else? Find someone to fight with?"
"I'm too lazy to care about you"
"Why are you going?"
"Buy something"
"Damn it, there's no one outside"
"You guys just wait here to die."
In a male dormitory of a certain university, Huang Song closed the door hard, locked the roommate who was chasing him inside, and hurriedly went downstairs and came outside.
The sun was shining brightly, and not a single campus ghost could be seen in Nuo University. Looking back at the dormitory building where he had been hiding for more than half a month, many people looked at him from the windows.
All of them are cowards.
Huang Song spat at them and rode a shared bicycle to the nearest supermarket.
When we arrived at the place, it was a mess. The supermarket had been destroyed long ago and nothing was left. Among them, he had a share of the credit. He rushed in to see a few boys loading things into the trolleys. Huang Song picked up one and rushed over.
, there are snacks and food on the shelves without even looking at them.
Just after grabbing a few items, a large army arrived. They all rushed to the shelves and grabbed them desperately, even the toilet paper.
Huang Song estimated that it was almost done, and the cart was full. At this time, the supermarket sales staff arrived, shouting "pay, pay, there is surveillance."
Huang Song hesitated for a moment, then saw that most people were still grabbing, so he obediently went over and lined up to pay.
The living expenses he usually saved and saved were spent without blinking an eye. After spending a month's living expenses, he didn't even go back to the dormitory. He ran to the house rented by his best friend outside the school and stored all his things inside.
The line at home was still busy, and there were already a lot of people outside at this time. Almost all of them were running outside the supermarket, and they all seemed to be racing against time, as if someone was chasing after me.
Seeing this attitude, Huang Song became a little unsure. He felt that the supplies he was buying were not enough, so he quickly bought a shared electric vehicle and joined the crowd.
The canteen was opened when the supermarket was not open, and the canteen was banged on the door when the canteen was not open. After more than two hours of fussing, there were so many bags that could not be moved.
There were a lot of people in front of the bank, all withdrawing money, the ATM machines were all empty, and there were more vehicles, almost all of them were going out of the city. I was in a state of panic all day long.
By the time Huang Song went back, covered in stinking sweat, his best friend and his girlfriend had already left, taking away many of the things he had bought. He only left a note saying that the house was for him to live in, and the things he took away were just
As rent.
Depend on!
Huang Song fell down on the sofa and gradually woke up from the irrational and dizzy state. He looked at his mobile phone, but there was still no information. When he watched TV, it was still singing and dancing. When he looked outside, it was still chaos. Then he looked at himself...
What the hell am I doing?
What's the point of grabbing these things?
Isn't the most important thing at this time to stay with your family?
He started to call frantically again, but the line was still busy and the signal was busy. It was estimated that it would not be restored in a short time. He also checked the train tickets for home on the ticket purchase APP, but the train had not resumed operation yet...
He walked around the house like a headless fly, anxious and with big bumps on his lips.
I am irritated and refresh the web page and forum over and over again to vent my anxiety, confusion and anger, and refresh again, just like a mud cow sinking into the sea.
I went to the external network and received the same treatment. Then I looked at the latest messages. They were all from before the great fog...
What to do, what to do.
He had never been so helpless as he was now, and he had never been so afraid of the dark.
It's evening, and the day has passed in such a hazy way. What did I do, what did I do, just grab a bunch of these useless things?
The darker the sky outside, the less he dared to carry it alone in this room. He had no choice but to choose some useful things to take with him and return to the university campus.
The dormitory was empty, with messy beds, open suitcases, and things thrown everywhere, giving off a strong atmosphere of panic.
As soon as Huang Song put away his things and cleared the bed, his roommates came back one by one.
There are traffic jams everywhere...
The railway is blocked...
No flights…
A few junior boys made a fuss excitedly for a while, and when night fell, everyone shut up obediently.
The moon is very big and round, and the moonlight is very strong. You can see clearly even without street lights.
Huang Songla blocked the windows layer by layer with sheets so that no light could pass through. Several boys were lying on the bed, one of them had teeth chattering, one of them was covering himself with a quilt and crying softly, and the other one didn't know what he was doing. Huang Songla
Song was wrapped in a quilt, leaving only a pair of eyes outside.
Looking back on the more than half a month I just spent in the fog, I actually didn't encounter anything scary. I just kept hearing this and that kind of noises and hearing this and that kind of rumors.
Huang Song also went out to purchase supplies, and the school supermarket opened at scheduled times despite risks. The school also organized collective mutual aid activities, and many enthusiastic teachers and students were active on the front line of disaster relief.
But that's just the beginning.
As the fog continued, all these people disappeared, and all kinds of outrageous gossip spread all over the sky.
Huang Song heard that an enthusiastic senior sister from the student union had been wandering outside and would not go back when no one called her. She even went to the artificial lake to wash her hair and sang while washing her hair. Not to mention the number of people attracted her attention.
Moreover, the fog cleared, and the senior sister did not appear.
The school said that he was sent to a designated hospital for rescue, but Huang Song was skeptical.
This senior is not an exception.
"Which of you is crying? Stop crying, okay? You're still leaking!"
"Who is crying? Stop making trouble!"
"Who is crying? Why didn't I hear you? It couldn't be..."
"People are scary, do you know that they scare people to death!?"
"Who is crying? Stop crying!"
"Sign up, I'm Huang Song, I'm not crying."
"I'm Ma Xiaotian"
"I am Wu Shengli"
"I am Li Nan"
The hairs all over Huang Song's body stood up. He didn't speak just now. Who was speaking on his behalf?
Unconsciously, the one with chattering teeth stopped chattering, and the one holding the quilt and crying softly stopped crying. There was a dead silence in the dormitory. Only the bright moonlight scattered through the window, and suddenly a long and twisted shadow was cast in.
