Global Flooding: I built a city

The scorching sun slowly peeked out from the east.

The sun, the size of a washbasin, looks like a god of death, staring at the only remaining life on the planet.

Hu You slowly raised his head, his mind was in a blur and he had no idea what was going on. He could only remember some sporadic memories in his mind.

What Xiao Zisu...

What Xia Yilian...

What about Lin Xiaoxiao, An Xianer...

etc!

Xiao, why is Su Lai here?

Hu You endured the pain, shook his head, and threw away the chaotic memories in his mind. He looked up at the blazing sun in the sky, his eyes filled with sorrow.

My thoughts can't help but go back to three months ago...

On the first day of the New Year, under the sun, the highest temperature reached 33°C.

Under the influence of global warming, people at that time thought it was just an ordinary rise in temperature.

The next day, the highest temperature reached 38℃.

People put on short sleeves, turned off the heater, and changed the air conditioning mode to cooling mode.

On the third day, 43℃!

This temperature count exceeds the historical highest temperature in Hu You's area.

Electricity bills have skyrocketed, causing power rationing in some areas!

fine!

At night, the temperature is still normal. Even if the power is limited, people can rely on some physical cooling methods to arrange sleep.

But until the seventh day!

Just over a week later, the highest temperature in the entire region reached fifty-seven degrees, and the sunshine hours extended to twelve hours!

If there is no electricity! No air conditioning! No cold storage!

Originally, people only thought that this was a drastic and rapid climate change, which might end soon and everything would return to normal.

But until the fourteenth day... people discovered that the global temperature was still rising at an unstoppable rate.

Panic broke out in the crowd!

People have not worked for a long time and have not purchased supplies. The supplies hoarded in the house have long been used up. There is only one way to replenish supplies!

Rob!

When night falls, the temperature in the city drops slightly.

From the original seventy or eighty degrees, it dropped to more than ten degrees!

This temperature is enough to support human life, and only at this time can people step out of the air-conditioned room and go outside to look for supplies...

Either food, water, or diesel, supply the generator to continue generating electricity!

After all, no one knows when the city’s power supply will stop.

Once the power supply is cut off, given the current living environment, I am afraid that within three days, the lucky ones hiding in the entire city will be exposed to the flames!

At this time, if you are burned to death or heated to death, you might as well go to your own relatives and say goodbye to this world. It is better than dying in the torment of the flames, right?

This is the fifteenth day when the sun is high!

Last night, Hu You went outside to look for supplies with his girlfriend, but for some reason... he fainted and the back of his head still hurt.

I even had such strange dreams.

I can even remember what the person named Su in the dream looks like. You must know that generally speaking, the beings who appear in dreams are not too detailed.

Have you seen that person somewhere?

There was a pain in the back of his head. Hu You frowned slightly and got up from the ground.

Forget it, don’t think about it anymore.

Fortunately, it was still early, the sun had just come out, and the temperature had only reached over 30 degrees, so it was not fatal!

According to experience, in another hour or so, the temperature will rise to about 40 degrees, and he still has an hour and a half at most!

Let’s go back first!

Hu You looked at the backpack hanging on his body and frowned slightly.

Although the backpack is still hanging on the body, it has been scratched by the blade and must have been looted.

It's just... I don't know who the other party is!

The appearance of the two people suddenly appeared in Hu You's mind.

One is his girlfriend.

Ye Wanlan.

The relationship between the two is excellent and has reached the point of discussing marriage.

If it weren't for the scorching sun this time, they could still continue their small lives, and maybe not long after, they would be able to have their own small lives.

Yesterday, there were only two days of rations left at home, so the two had no choice but to go out and explore together.

Later, he met another person in his mind on the road...

Chen Yibeard.

Colleagues from Hu You's company, the two usually have a good relationship. When exploring the surrounding resources, the two teams simply acted together.

In addition to Chen Yishan, there is another man beside him.

Hu You had never seen that man before, but Chen Yishan said that he was his roommate and could be trusted.

The four-person team was originally going to a convenience store to look for supplies.

But I don’t know why, the back of my head hurt, and then I lost consciousness.

When they came out to explore, no one expected that this would be the case.

He was knocked unconscious, and he didn't know how she... was doing now.

Let’s go back and take a look first!

Hu You walked on the sticky asphalt ground. After cooling overnight, the asphalt ground was even a little sticky.

If the temperature continues to rise, it may not be long before the asphalt laid on the ground will completely melt, just like a swamp, trapping people in it.

Hu You ran all the way without seeing a single soul on the road.

No, not just living beings.

Even some plants have died due to the high temperature, leaving only corpses buried in the soil. It can't be said that they are still alive, and there is only one corpse left.

Hu You rushed to the outside of his community.

He subconsciously lowered his footsteps.

The reason is very simple...

People!

At this time, there are still many people alive in the community.

There is no way, the group composed of those people is very complicated, and it is necessary to be cautious.

In addition to some people like Hu You who are brave and have little supplies stored and dare to go out to search, there are also some old silver coins.

They never leave their nests too far, but will always stare at other people in the community, watching them search for supplies and come back, and take the opportunity to snatch them from them.

There are many such people, and Hu You has seen many of them.

Even if he does not carry any supplies, he does not want to be targeted by these people.

So... it is always right to be careful!

Fortunately!

There is still plenty of time.

It took less than half an hour to rush back from outside, and he still has an hour.

Even if his room is no longer safe, there is enough time to find a place to avoid the high temperature.

Hu You slowed down his footsteps, stuck to the wall, and walked towards his house along the blind spot of his sight.

Fortunately!

Safe all the way.

He went upstairs, not even daring to take the elevator, and could only go upstairs along the fire escape stairs.

The thirteenth floor!

This floor is neither low nor high.

For the entire thirty-story building, it can only be regarded as the middle floor, even if it is climbing, it will not take too long.

More than ten minutes later.

Hu You came to the door of his house, and he became more cautious.

If he was found in the community, there were other buildings in between. Even if he had good eyesight and found Hu You's building, he might not be able to find his floor.

But now he has gone upstairs.

If there are those neighbors with ulterior motives, they will probably choose to make trouble when they seize the opportunity of Hu You's return!

So... right now, it is the most dangerous area!

Hu You crawled directly on the ground, crawling forward little by little, without even triggering the lighting system in the corridor.

He moved all the way to the front of his house, looking at the hair stuck in the crack of the door, and frowned slightly.

Not back!

This hair was deliberately stuck in the crack of the door before he left last night.

If someone opened the door, the hair would definitely fall out of the crack, but now... no!

The hair is still stuck in the crack of the door.

It is enough to prove that no one went home before he came back!

Ye Wanlan!

Where did she go?

Hu You gritted his teeth, looked at the hair in the crack of the door, frowned and thought.

Time... at most one hour!

There is only one hour left for normal human activities!

If he wants to go out to find Ye Wanlan, he will only have one hour at most.

After one hour, if he fails to find Ye Wanlan, or cannot find a place where he can stay safely for twelve hours, he may die of sunburn and dehydration outside!

Should he play it safe, return to the room, and wait until tomorrow to find Ye Wanlan, or... give it a try!

Go now!

Golden 24 hours!

If he continues to wait, no one knows what the outcome of Ye Wanlan will be...

Go!

Hu You gritted his teeth and finally made this decision in his mind.

Of course, he was not unprepared.

He first opened the door and returned home, putting the only two bottles of mineral water and three small bags of sandwich biscuits in his pocket.

The water was stopped three days ago.

In the past, he could use electricity to boil water for drinking, but now he can only drink the mineral water stored at home.

As for the sandwich biscuits...

There are some instant noodles and other things in the house, but those things are not only inconvenient to carry, but also too big to be discovered. If they are discovered, they are likely to attract some hungry people to snatch them.

The things he is carrying can be carried concealed.

After getting ready, Hu You walked out of the door and walked all the way to Chen Yiran's apartment!

He remembered that Chen Yiran told him that he lived in an apartment nearby!

Although it is not certain that Chen Yiran and Ye Wanlan have a relationship, this is the only clue he has now, so he has to go and see it!

The only problem is...

He doesn't know where Chen Yiran lives!

In any case, he can only go to the apartment first!

Hu You followed the path he had just taken and groped his way to the outside of the community.

The temperature was approaching 40 degrees, and even if he didn't move, he would sweat profusely.

The temperature rose again!

Half an hour!

At most, half an hour!

This time was not enough to go back and forth from the apartment to the community!

Hu You frowned, gritted his teeth, and ran towards the apartment!

He kept recalling where Chen Yiran might live, but when he arrived outside the community, he immediately identified the floor where Chen Yiran was!

The reason was simple...

Corpse!

Ye Wanlan's corpse was hanging outside the apartment window, like... preparing dried bacon.
