Driving through unfamiliar yet familiar streets, Chen Xin stopped at an intersection, took out a small telescope he had kept in the car and looked at a small building by the roadside.
The small building is located at the corner of the intersection. It is an L-shaped three-story building with a large area.
The first floor was originally a shop facing the street, but now the exterior is burnt black. The glass at the door and the metal security door inside are luckier than others. Although it is also scorched black, it is still in good condition. You can see into the store. Complete interior.
As for the second and third floors, all the windows are equipped with anti-theft nets. Now they are all scorched black and it is impossible to see what is going on inside.
This is the house of a group member in the Chen Xin Survival Group. The first floor is the outdoor goods store she opened. The second and third floors are the archery hall and the gym respectively. Although the facilities are very complete, they are only open to members and are not accessible at all. Open to the public.
In addition to the three floors on the ground, there are actually two floors underground in this building. The first floor is a bar that is also open to members only, and the other floor below is the shelter built by Chen Xin's friend. .
Chen Xin’s friend is an outdoor sports expert and wilderness survival enthusiast. His home is nothing special. It’s just that it was demolished twice during the expansion of the city and became the second generation of demolition. He originally bought this land to wait for the next generation. It was demolished three times, but after Chen Xin's friend returned from studying abroad, he used the land to build a building and started an outdoor equipment business.
This building was designed with the function of a shelter in mind, so the bottom floor was completely designed as a three-defense bunker. When Chen Xin built his shelter, he made reference to many of his friend's shelters. design.
As for the above-ground part of the building, it was also built very solidly. As the family was rich, the building itself was made of the best materials. Even after such a terrible natural disaster, it still stood. It was just destroyed. Just blackened the surface.
Chen Xin, who was holding a telescope, saw an extra antenna on the top of the building. He smiled with satisfaction, turned on the shortwave radio in the car, adjusted to the pre-agreed channel and started calling.
"Call, call, this is the writer, Dragon Lady, I'm at your door. If you hear me, please answer."
Writer is Chen Xin’s nickname in the survival group, and Long Niang is Chen Xin’s friend. As for why Chen Xin calls her Long Niang, it’s because Chen Xin and her met in a game called FF14. Yes, the game character she used is a white-haired and black-skinned dragon lady.
And she is the group friend who said she would take her sister and best friend to someone else's shelter for help, and she is also the leader of the survival group.
In fact, the survival group was established by this friend whom Chen Xin calls Long Niang. The people in the group are actually regular customers of her outdoor equipment store, that is, members who can use the archery hall and gym in her store and go to the underground bar to drink. .
Chen Xin kept calling her Dragon Lady in the game. Later he found out that she was from this city, and the two got to know each other after going back and forth. Chen Xin was introduced to outdoor sports and wilderness survival by this Dragon Lady.
Because I was used to being called Dragon Niang, I kept calling her Dragon Niang. In fact, her real name is Mo Qingyan, which is quite a literary name.
Thinking back to how he and Mo Qingyan got to know each other, Chen Xin couldn't help but feel a little nostalgic, but it was a pity that the end was coming and they could no longer play FF14, nor could they play Jiang Tingting together.
Just when Chen Xin sighed at this and lamented that he had never been able to get the mount he wanted, and now he would never be able to get it, a call came from the radio.
"Call! This is Dragon Lady. Why did you come to my house with the ingredients? Don't you have your own shelter? Why did you come out?"
Dragon Lady's voice on the radio is still as energetic as ever. Although the apocalypse has also had a great impact on her, it obviously has not made her lose her vitality.
"As I said before, we need to exchange information one month after the meteorite hit. I just harvested a batch of vegetables in my greenhouse. I remembered that you don't have a greenhouse at home, so I brought some over. If you don't want me, I will take you to the official shelter. People have exchanged supplies.”
"Fresh vegetables? How many are there? I want them all! Ask for whatever you want, I haven't had fresh vegetables for a month! I almost vomited after eating canned luncheon meat!"
Chen Xin couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle when he heard the words that were almost the same as before. Mo Qingyan was indeed the same as before.
Listening to the same energetic words as before, Chen Xin couldn't help but smile. After staying in the shelter for a month, what he saw when he went out was the doomsday. His mood had always been heavy. Now he heard the voice of his good friend. Naturally very happy.
So Chen Xin said to the radio: "I have four hundred kilograms of fresh cabbage and lettuce. I can give you half of it and exchange it for canned meat and wine. I know you have enough inventory. In addition, you need to have gasoline in exchange or If you can help me get a usable refrigerator back, I can give you the remaining 100 pounds."
After Chen Xin finished stating his request, he drove the car to the side door of the building where Long Mo Qingyan's store was located, waiting for Mo Qingyan to come up and open the door.
Chen Xin has been here many times and is very familiar with the structure of this building. The three-story building on the ground is actually not connected to the two underground floors. It is also impossible to go down through the stairs in the building. Instead, you must enter the building through the side door. yard, and then take the elevator to go down to the underground, so Chen Xin had to wait at the side door for Mo Qingyan to open the door from the inside.
Sure enough, Chen Xin didn't let Chen Xin wait long. The dark side door, which was also burned by the fire, was opened by a figure wrapped tightly and wearing a gas mask. Behind the figure, there was a figure holding a crossbow. The similarly dressed figure was aiming his crossbow around, looking very vigilant.
The figure who opened the door quickly came to Chen Xin's car door and knocked twice on the car window. Although he couldn't see his expression with the gas mask on, Chen Xin could still feel the joy of the other person.
Chen Xin, who was in the car, also wore a gas mask. He did not take off his mask, but just waved to the other person, indicating that he was going to drive in.
The figure nodded, pointed to the side door that had been opened, and motioned for Chen Xin to drive in.
Chen Xin drove the car through the side door and entered the familiar courtyard. He did not stop, but drove directly towards a place in the courtyard that looked like a warehouse. There was another figure there. Press the elevator door.
At the signal of the figure, Chen Xin drove the car into the elevator.
After Chen Xin drove the car into the yard, the figure outside the yard quickly closed the side door again, and returned to the yard with the figure holding the crossbow. After the three figures entered the elevator at the same time, the elevator door closed. , and then began to decline slowly.
The elevator Mo Qingyan installed in her shelter was a large cargo elevator that could lift cars, because she was used to parking her car in an underground garage.
After landing underground and driving out of the elevator, Chen Xin got out of the car, took off the gas mask on his face, and said hello to Mo Qingyan, who had also taken off the gas mask: "Long time no see, Dragon Lady." (End of Chapter)
