Chapter 3 Protracted War

"Hey, I... I'm Ji Yin, your classmate in college. I wonder if you still remember me. I know I shouldn't call you at this time, as it will disturb you, but I won't feel at ease if I don't call."

I spoke carefully, fearing that the other party would suddenly hang up the phone.

"Ji Yin, is it really you?!" Gong Yu never expected that five or six years after graduation, the two of them had no contact at all. Then he suddenly received a call from her and was surprised: "You still remember me?

I thought you had forgotten me a long time ago. Are you okay now?"

Can it be okay?

Ji Yin blushed and avoided his question. Fortunately, she couldn't see her current expression on the other end of the phone, "I'm calling you just to talk about what happened outside recently. I heard that you work in a research institute, so I must know more.

detailed."

The person on the other side was silent for a moment, and then said: "I can't explain this on the phone at the moment. I wonder if you are free now. It would be best to talk about it in person."

What could be more worrying than the poisoning incident outside right now?

Ji Yin smiled bitterly, how could she not be free? After the divorce, she was in a bad mood and had been working at home. She immediately said: "I am free, but I am just afraid that it will affect your work."

"People need to work, but also need to rest. This is called a balance between work and rest. Wherever you are, I will pick you up."

I don’t know who just said that he was busy.

"Oh, no need, where are you? I can just come over by myself."

Gong Yu said in an extremely serious tone: "It's better for me to pick you up, it's not safe outside now. Just wait, wait for me downstairs at your house. By the way, I remember your house is in Linjiawan Hongtu Community, right?"

"

Ji Yin felt a pain in her heart. That was her original home. Although Jiang Qijie left it to her, she didn't want to go back for fear of being aroused and recalling the sad past. So she immediately replied: "No, at my parents' place, Guangling Road Water Conservancy Community 22

Building."

"Okay, I'll be there in fifteen minutes. Remember to put on your mask." After saying that, Gong Yu hung up the phone.

Ji Yin stood up and said to her parents: "Mom and Dad, please guard your home and watch for good results. I want to find out about the situation from my old classmates, otherwise I won't feel at ease at home. I always feel upset. I'll go buy some food by the way.

Come back and stock up, and we will try to go out as little as possible in the future, otherwise we will be in trouble if we contract this poison."

Why couldn't Ji Qishui guess what his daughter was thinking? Not to mention her, even he felt inexplicably agitated, so he said: "Go, pay attention to safety on the road, and try to avoid the crowds."

Ji Yin found the spare medical kit at home, found a mask that had not been used for a long time, and said: "I know, now everyone knows that it will spread, and there are obviously many fewer people taking to the streets. No one dares to wander on the streets without anything.

Never go out unless necessary."

When Ji Yin came downstairs, there were fewer people on the street than she expected. Maybe it was because today's news reports reported that poisoned people would spread the disease.

Anyway, there were still ten minutes left, and Ji Yin came to the small supermarket at the entrance of the water conservancy community. The owner of the small supermarket was also a retired employee of the water conservancy. When he saw Ji Yin, he asked enthusiastically: "Miss Yin, what do you want?"

When Ji Yin saw that the small supermarket was deserted, there was no one except her. Maybe it was related to the recent situation. Everyone was reluctant to go out, so she asked politely: "Uncle Qi, are you alone?"

"Well, as soon as the poisoning incident came out, everyone didn't dare to go out. It was okay for me to open a supermarket, and everyone still had some daily needs. It was difficult for me to have a distant relative who opened a restaurant on Jiangjun Road.

There has been no business for a week. He plans to close the business after this month to avoid having to pay rent and end up unable to make ends meet."

"Well, it's not easy to do business these days. By the way, where is your son Qi Yong?" Ji Yin stretched her head to look into the supermarket.

"He hasn't gotten off work yet, do you have anything to do with him?"

"No, I want to buy something. There may be a lot. I would like to ask Qi Yong to help deliver it upstairs."

Boss Qi knew that her family did not have strong labor, so he quickly said: "Whatever you want to buy, just buy it. I will ask Qi Yong to deliver it to your home as soon as he gets off work."

"Okay, I want two boxes of instant noodles, two boxes of water, two 5-pound barrels of cooking oil, two 50-pound bags of rice, 50 bags each of pickled mustard and pickled mustard in small packages, and two plates of eggs.

"Ji Yin reported what was on her mind in one breath. For fear of missing something, she looked at the container and found that these were all she needed for the time being.

Boss Qi jotted down the items Ji Yin needed on his notepad: "Miss Yin, I wrote it down and asked Qi Yong to deliver it to you when he gets off work."

"Uncle Qi, I'll swipe the card." Ji Yin handed the card to Boss Qi, and suddenly remembered the missing items, "By the way, give me two more toilet paper."

Boss Qi quickly swiped Ji Yin's card. When returning the card, he looked outside the door and asked in a low voice: "Miss Yin, did you hear some rumors and buy so many things to reserve?"

Ji Yin was taken aback for a moment, then she waved her hand and said, "I just plan to go out as little as possible to get through this special period. After all, the family is old and young. Thank you, Uncle Qi. Goodbye!"

After Ji Yin left, Boss Qi quickly made a phone call. Then he moved some goods from the small warehouse at the back to add to the shelves, and specially added a lock to the small warehouse. Ji Yin was right, you are not afraid of ten thousand.

Just afraid of what might happen.

When Ji Yin returned to the downstairs of the gate building, Gong Yu's car had already arrived, and the car window rolled down, revealing a handsome face.

He still has the same face, but the years have made him more mature.

Ji Yin stepped forward and opened the car door and apologized repeatedly, "I'm sorry, I asked you to pick me up, but I asked you to wait. Did I waste your time?"

Gong Yu said solemnly: "Actually, I have a little free time today, waiting for the experimental results to come out. By the way, where did you just go? It's best to go out less and contact less people."

After Ji Yin got in the car, she said sheepishly: "I just went to the small supermarket and bought some things. I plan to stock up."

Gong Yu helped Ji Yin fasten her seat belt and said, "If you don't do this, I'm going to remind you."

Ji Yin was stunned. What she said from Gong Yu's mouth carried much more weight than what most people said. She quickly asked: "Is it really here..."

There was an unspeakable expression on Gong Yu's handsome face: "It's hard to say now, but it is necessary to prepare first. It may be an unprecedented protracted war."

"Protracted war?" Ji Yin chewed the word, which meant... "How to say it?"

"I'll tell you in detail when I get to the research later. Just sit tight." With that said, Gong Yu stepped on the accelerator, and the car sped off.

"Aren't you afraid of being stopped by the police so fast?"

"Don't worry, you didn't notice that my car license plate is a special department license plate."

"Aren't you a research institute?"

"Since the emergence of this poison, our institute has merged with the National Supervision Bureau and is independent from the Supervision Bureau, that is, it is not under their control."
