To my frozen hometown

Chapter 68 Some people are destined to do something

That night, Liz hardly rested, just holding her guitar and strumming the strings, humming the song she wanted to sing over and over again.

Ai Er gradually fell asleep amidst such singing, with a little tranquility, while Liu Yuan remained awake all the time, watching the girl sitting between the wires and sundries.

In the room, the dim light of the screen illuminated her side face. When singing, Liz seemed so focused, as if she had completely put aside the usual madness and integrated into the melody of the music without distraction.

Liz is a very talented singer, and anyone who has heard her sing will recognize this.

And this, perhaps, is a kind of destiny.

She was destined to sing, and she was destined to attract everyone's attention on a snowy night.

······

Two days later, the temperature dropped to an unacceptable level in a short period of time, which showed that Liz's feeling was not wrong, and a snowstorm was coming.

Huge storms pull cold air from the upper layers to the ground, causing a sharp drop in temperature.

Among the ruins, a thick layer of hoarfrost had formed on the walls of the streets and houses.

The too cold weather made it impossible for the refugees to go hunting. Fortunately, they had already accumulated enough food to survive the snowstorm.Otherwise, some of them might start dying before disaster strikes.

The sound of the wind pouring into the city roared, as if someone was crying, or someone was whimpering.It made everyone who heard it feel heavy, as if a boulder had been pressed against their chest, so that they couldn't breathe.

In the underground parking lot of the ruins, among the refugees gathered, Nuo Senfu hugged his wife and daughter and sat tremblingly beside a bonfire.

The flames were burning, making it difficult to breathe, especially for Nana, who was only ten years old, she had to pick up the oxygen tank on the side to take a breath of oxygen from time to time.

Northamford is also not feeling well, but he has to intentionally reduce the number of oxygen inhalations, because the oxygen that each of them can allocate is actually not enough. Exhaustion occurs.

Everyone knows that the most difficult time is coming.

Although the refugees have done everything they can as far as possible compared to the greenhouse residents who are just waiting, no one knows what this will change.

······

Perhaps because he couldn't bear the torment in his heart, soldier Johnson finally climbed up the wall of the greenhouse before the blizzard came.

He asked his colleagues about the recent situation of the refugees. After learning that the refugees bought a batch of supplies by selling food, he finally felt a little more relaxed.

At least, more people should be able to survive.

Looking at the refugee gathering place mentioned by his colleagues in the ruins, Johnson thought so.

He knew that he was just a selfish person, he didn't really care about other people's lives, he just didn't want to make himself feel guilty.

But even so, he still felt a little fortunate that more people hadn't died because of his refusal.

······

In the silence of the people, the night gradually fell.

The wind in the ruins became louder and louder, the sky was covered by dark clouds, snowflakes swept across the streets like knives, and frost condensed between the buildings.

A blizzard is coming, and everyone knows it.

Listening to the roar of the strong wind in the city, people's hearts seemed to tremble with their bodies.

At this time, both the refugees in the ruins and the residents in the greenhouse kept silent, hiding in closed houses and buildings, not daring to make a sound.

In the face of the mighty power of nature, human beings can always feel their own insignificance, and they can always feel the kind of instinctive fear.

But even in such a gradually spreading fear, there is still one person who is illogically excited.

"Liuyuan, are you ready?"

In the basement room, Liz was wearing a heavy winter jacket, carrying her guitar and oxygen tank on her back, put a fully enclosed oxygen mask on her face, turned her head and looked at Liu Yuan and urged.

"What are you worrying about? This blizzard will last long enough." Liu Yuan said unhurriedly while arranging the remaining tools.As for the drum kit, they had moved it to the radio tower yesterday.

"But it's the first night, isn't it, I don't want to miss the best time to come on."

As Liz spoke, she curled her lips into a smile, and then picked up a radio at hand and adjusted it.After confirming that it could receive a channel, it was handed over to Al.

"Until we come back, you will stay here and you must not go out, understand?"

Facing Al's question, Liz's voice was rarely serious.

"Got it." Al nodded and took the radio from Liz.

"This thing can let you hear our concert. I'm sorry that you can't participate in the performance, but there are some things that need to be faced by adults. I hope you can understand."

Looking down at Al, Liz said with a grin, reaching out and stroking the girl's hair.

Perhaps only in front of her children would she appear normal.

"Hmm." Al responded softly, then looked at the two who were about to go out and asked.

"Will you come back together?"

Listening to this question, both Liuyuan and Liz were stunned for a moment.

"what."

A moment later, Liz, who looked like an alien with an airtight oxygen mask on, laughed out loud, patted Liuyuan on the shoulder and said.

"That's not necessarily true. After all, I'm the lead singer, right? Sometimes, I always stay a little longer. But we will definitely come back, I promise."

After tidying up all the things, the two left the basement under Al's watch.

Before setting off, Liuyuan loaded all the tools on the snowmobile and said to Liz.

"Al will be disappointed if you can't go back."

"But if I go back now, she will be more disappointed, won't she?"

Liz stretched in the carriage, squinting her eyes at the sky.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense, let's go, I can't wait."

Let's go, my blood is boiling.
