The Doomsday Chef

Chapter 4 The 72nd Hour of Darkness
After a while, as if feeling her sincerity, the man sitting in front of him who was almost as tall as her barely squeezed a word from his throat
"Um"

Taking a deep breath, Su Mo told himself that he must not be angry and don't care about it.She straightened up and was about to get some food, but her stomach was grunting at an inappropriate time, especially loud in this silent night.

"Gulu~gulu"

She covered her stomach, her face flushed, why did she choose this time!She looked embarrassed and said to Lu Chen: "Well, do you want to have something to eat together?"

The girl who stood in front of him like a refugee, Lu Chen directly expressed his dislike with physical actions, he stood up and walked straight to the door, stepped on a pile of wood debris and was about to go out, when the tall figure paused at the door, Su Mo watched as he turned back again, carried away the dining table in her room and blocked it in front of the door to block the big hole before going out.

Seeing that the taciturn man was about to go upstairs, she immediately jumped to the door and shouted through the gap to the dark corridor outside: "My name is Su Mo!"

Originally, I thought I would not receive an answer, but unexpectedly, a man's low and unwavering voice came: "Lu Chen"

What an awkward person.She curled her lips and pushed the table against the door to seal the door tightly before jumping into the kitchen.

Due to the power outage and this hot summer, the contents of the refrigerator quickly broke down. The instant food and popsicles frozen in the freezer were all melted together, emitting a foul smell.

There are only a few boxes of canned fruit and some bags of instant noodles left in the kitchen.

Her heart ached, this was the ration she had just brought back, and it was gone.Su Mo had no choice but to make do with the bags of instant noodles. Fortunately, the gas was still available, otherwise he would have been starving for a whole day.

After eating and cleaning up the mess at home, the mobile phone left on the ground has long been turned off.

Su Mo looked at the time hanging on the wall by candlelight, it was early in the morning, afraid of touching the wound, she washed it casually, changed into clean pajamas and sat down by the window with a glass of water, the doll's face was full of sadness, It was still pitch black outside, and I couldn't see my fingers.

I don't know when she will call and come to the Internet. Now that online payment is popular in this era, most of the living expenses she earns are stored in the bank card, and the few red notes on her body are pitifully small.

This isolated and helpless state made Su Mo feel a little melancholy.

Just as she was thinking about it, the sound of dense and uniform footsteps came from downstairs. She squinted her eyes and looked down, and could faintly see a row of figures entering her building in an orderly manner.

She put down the cup and jumped to the door, bent down to look through the gap, the lights in the stairwell were flickering, and several soldiers in military uniforms holding flashlights followed an older middle-aged man all the way up.

Jiang Hai keenly felt that someone was watching them, and his sharp eyes were like knives scraping towards the place where Su Mo was peeking, without stopping.

Su Mo was taken aback by the opponent's aggressive aura, and quickly retracted her head and backed away. She patted her chest and her heart was beating violently. The person in the uniform was probably from the military district of City A. Did she live upstairs? what.

Noticing the movement, Lu Chen opened the door and let someone in. Jiang Yulian's eyes turned red when she saw her man coming to pick him up in person. She is very old and well aware of how important this child is to Jiang Hai.

Before leaving, she took Lu Chen's hand and repeatedly said: "If you don't leave, Auntie will not force you, I just hope that the girl downstairs will pay more attention to you."

Jiang Hai already got a rough idea from his subordinates, he put his arms around his wife's shoulders.The resolute face is full of majesty, and the voice is serious: "All the detection satellites we sent have lost contact, and the news has not yet come back. Stay here for the past few days and don't go out. If something happens, come back to me immediately."

Lu Chen nodded with a rare serious expression: "I understand."

After explaining, Hu Ding, who came with him, took off the big package on his body and put it on the ground. He patted Lu Chen on the shoulder and said with a smile, "I knew you wouldn't go back. I packed these things for you earlier in the morning."

Lu Chen was silent, threw away the hand on his shoulder, and said harshly: "Protect Aunt Jiang, I don't want such a thing to happen again."

"No more." Hu Ding was deflated, and resentfully withdrew his hands and touched his head. This matter was more or less to blame for his soft-heartedness, but he really didn't expect this to happen.

After sending a group of people downstairs, when passing by Su Mo's room, Jiang Yulian found her dilapidated door and glared at Lu Chen, who was expressionless and did not look like he had done anything wrong, and snatched a soldier's body. Put the backpack in front of the door, knocked on the door and said softly: "Girl, Auntie left something for you, don't go out during this time, remember to find Lu Chen, that brat."

Hearing the sound, Su Mo's eyes lit up several degrees behind the door, she rubbed her hands excitedly and said loudly: "Understood, thank you, auntie."

No one noticed that a door on the third floor was slightly opened, and a pair of dark eyes inside quietly watched every move upstairs before they quietly closed the door before they went downstairs.

When there was no movement outside, Su Mo pushed open the table and hooked a black package in. He couldn't wait to open it and saw that there were several full charging treasures, a flashlight with batteries and a military dagger inside.

It's really a sleepy person giving a pillow. She took out her mobile phone and immediately connected the data cable, and half-following the sound of turning on the phone, she let out a long breath.

Except for the saber and the charging treasure, Su Mo stuffed the rest under the bed in the bedroom. Fearing that someone would break in, she hugged the quilt and held the saber and nestled on the sofa. Going to sleep here.

The 72nd hour of nightfall.

Except for the sound of government officials dragging carts back and forth to remind residents to travel carefully, the streets are mostly silent.

For three days, Su Mo didn't hear any movement upstairs, and the wound on her leg healed quickly, with a layer of thin knots on it, which didn't affect her movements.Staying at home obediently for the past few days, although she doesn't have to worry about being hungry for the time being, she is starting to worry about the candles at home. She doesn't have much in reserve, and even though she saves them, they will soon run out. She doesn't want to fall into darkness. .

Sighing melancholy, she didn't dare to waste electricity except for the occasional phone calls that couldn't be connected these days.Turning on the phone, Su Mo wanted to call Lu Chen upstairs and ask him to look after the house. She went to buy some candles and came back. The number was right in front of her eyes, but she never pressed the phone number.

"Oh, forget it" After struggling for a while, she put down the phone.

It's only the third day, and the social order is still in chaos. She should be fine if she comes back as soon as possible.Comforting herself like this, Su Mo changed into sportswear, her hair was tied up high, and she wore a hat to cover half of her face. After confirming that it was correct, she put the dagger on her waist and pushed the table away with a flashlight. She got out of the foot, and re-covered the hole, and she dodged and went downstairs.
