006 This year is different
In order to guard against other possible attacks, Qi Qing did not refuse Mo Xun's offer to escort her home.
In fact, it only took a few minutes for her to take the reusable shopping bag back home. She told her mother, Du Ruying, that she had met a friend and they went to sit in a nearby coffee shop for a while.
Du Ruying saw her daughter leaving with a strange but tall and handsome man from the window. She didn't know whether to be happy or worried. Fortunately, her daughter had always been independent and had her own ideas. Although her relationship had suffered setbacks, it seemed that it was not affected.
not very big.
Qi Qing and Mo Xun returned to the alley and confirmed that the two large pieces of garbage in the trash can were still there. Qi Qing called the police, and within 5 minutes, people from the nearby police station arrived.
The policemen held their noses and pulled the two assailants out of the trash can. They found that their limbs had been detached from the joints and could only be reattached out of kindness. If they were not reattached, they would be permanently damaged.
When he arrived at the police station, Mo Xianxun said a few words alone to the director of the police station, and the next series of things went very smoothly.
The transcript was very brief and there were no doubts. Qi Qing submitted favorable evidence. Within half an hour, she had the leisure to go to the detention room and take a look.
Although the two gangsters could move their limbs at this time, it was so cold just now. They first lay on the ground and then passed out in the trash can for a while. Now their faces were covered with cold and painful noses and tears. Not to mention how miserable they were.
.
Qi Qing felt relieved when she saw the bad guys getting retribution. However, the person behind the scenes, Xue Yafang, had many connections in her family. It was said that she had people from both the black and white circles, and she didn't know if she would be punished by law.
She didn't have the heart to think so much. If the coming natural disaster was really as serious as in her dream, I'm afraid the existing social system would be affected.
Qi Qing frowned when she thought of this.
When she walked out of the police station, it was still early. It was only after three o'clock in the afternoon when she looked at the watch, but the sky seemed to be almost dusk. It was dark everywhere. Could it be freezing rain or heavy snow at night?
She said she was polite to Mo Xun: "How about I buy you coffee and talk about your salary just now?"
Mo Xun said: "No, I just rented a house and I still need to clean it up. How about salary? Cleaning the trash just now is considered a low-priced labor job. You can pay it as you see fit. I can do it."
Not wanting any money at all would be foolish and noble. Mo Xun is still short of money.
Qi Qing transferred 100 yuan to Mo Xun and asked, "Did you and I live in the same community before?"
Mo Xun said: "Well, when the community was first built more than ten years ago, our family lived on the second floor of unit 1 of the outermost building. Xiao Qingqing is you, right? Many children in the yard know you."
Qi Qing felt a little embarrassed when she mentioned the past when she was the king of the community when she was a child, and said vaguely: "Oh, it's me, what's your nickname? I don't seem to know anyone named Mo Xun."
Mo Xun did not explain, but simply said: "I am a few years older than you, and we have never played together. Later, I have been studying and working in other places, and my mother lived here by herself. After a few years, the house was sold."
Mo Xun didn't mention anything about his father, and Qi Qing didn't dare to ask why he was still renting nearby after he came back. This community is indeed in a good location in the city center, with convenient transportation, and shopping and medical care are all within a 10-minute walk. The housing prices
RMB 100,000 per square meter, the rent is also very expensive.
Mo Xun suddenly said: "It seems like it's going to rain tonight. You should go home early so you don't get cold."
When mentioning the cold, Qi Qing couldn't help but remind: "A friend of mine who works at the Meteorological Bureau said that the weather in S City and surrounding areas has been abnormal recently, and it is not an ordinary late-spring cold. If it rains and snows tonight and the temperature continues to drop,
It is recommended that you stock up on some warm supplies and daily necessities to prevent it from being too cold to go out and make life inconvenient."
Mo Xun said doubtfully: "I rent in the community next door. It's only a ten-minute walk from the big supermarket. You can buy things even if it's snowing heavily. Besides, it's the end of March. I remember when I was a kid, the flowers in S City were all blooming at this time.
.”
"This year is different." Qi Qing emphasized again.
After the two separated, Qi Qing returned home.
Du Ruying asked: "Why did you come back so soon? I thought you would have dinner with your friends, so I would be able to spare your share of the meal."
Qi Qing guessed that her mother might have seen Mo Xun from the window, and was afraid that she would misunderstand him, so she quickly explained: "He is just an ordinary friend. He used to live in our community. He is a few years older than me. He recognized me, but I didn't recognize him."
"We are so destined. What is his name? Does he still live here?" After Du Ruying retired, her first focus was on her daughter's finding a partner. She loved to inquire about all kinds of outstanding young men.
"The man's name is Mo Xun." Qi Qing answered perfunctorily, trying to bring the topic back on track, "Mom, let's get down to business. This cold wave is extremely cold. I'm afraid it will rain tonight. It's farther south.
The city has suffered a frostbite, and the temperature here may suddenly drop to below zero."
Du Ruying looked at the sky outside, frowned and said: "It's indeed a gloomy day today. I also had a dream when I took a nap today. After giving birth to you, I basically haven't had any prophetic dreams. As a result, today's dream is the same as when you had breakfast.
It's almost extreme cold and heavy snow. Should we buy another electric heater? I only have one in my room now. Is it cold for you when you sleep at night?"
"Mom, if there is an extremely cold weather that lasts for several months, it will be so cold that the power generation equipment will not be able to operate normally, and the electric heater will be useless. It will be worse than a small stove that burns wood and oil. I have already placed an order for a multi-functional stove online.
, in the event of a power outage, this portable small stove can not only keep warm, but can also cook.”
Qi Qing said about her plan, "I plan to withdraw all the money I earned from the stock market, and in the past few days, I may exchange it for supplies to resist disasters. The future in my dream will experience a series of natural disasters, extreme cold,
Then came the extreme heat, the tsunami...the supplies that needed to be purchased were not just those to keep warm.”
Du Ruying said sternly: "If a series of natural disasters really happens and lasts for a particularly long time, it may not be a good thing for us to fill the whole house with food and drink supplies. Can we, mother and daughter, survive?"
Qi Qing thought of the ups and downs she had experienced living with her mother in this house in her dream, and even more admired her mother's foresight at this time. Fighting the disaster was not just a matter of hoarding supplies.
If it is just a few days of cold and a few days of heat, the city will have sufficient supplies and everyone will consciously abide by the order and even help each other take care of the elderly, women and children. But when disasters continue to occur in turn, and when the external supply of materials is blocked, production cannot continue.
, the city has become an isolated island, with only consumption but no replenishment, and when supplies are decreasing day by day, can people still maintain their kindness?
In the dream, she and her mother did not prepare enough supplies, so they did not encounter more looting. Thanks to her mother's habit of hoarding goods and saving money by packing the bottom of the box, she managed to survive until the government rescue team arrived.
During the process, City S and the surrounding areas experienced minus 30 to 40 degrees Celsius for several months. The power was completely cut off. The snow was two to three meters high. The ground below was frozen into lumps of ice. The height below the third floor was completely blocked by ice and snow, making it completely uninhabitable.
When transportation was poor and supplies were not guaranteed at all, people were panicked, and criminals took advantage of the opportunity to bully the weak. The mother and daughter suffered a lot.
Extreme cold is followed by extreme heat, and extreme heat is followed by tsunamis. Government organizations have been working hard to maintain order, but they cannot withstand a series of natural disasters. They only consume but have no time to produce and replenish.
After the tsunami arrived, almost four-fifths of S City was submerged, and their community was not spared. She remembered that the tsunami waves she saw in her dream were as high as more than ten stories high.
The real extreme cold disaster in Qi Qing's dream started with ten consecutive days of heavy snow, which occurred in late April. Although the weather has been cold recently, it was only as cold as previous winters, and it did not affect her daily life. She was fully prepared.
There is still more than a month to prepare.
So, do you want to stick to your current house? It can’t withstand a tsunami. And the address here is known to both Xue Yafang and Zhang Jiannan. Qi Qing always feels a little uneasy. Should she convince her mother to move to a more secure place as soon as possible?
