The chosen boss of the end times, just wants to lie down

After moving into this villa located in the most remote corner of the community, the family often stayed at home and rarely interacted with outsiders. Therefore, no one knew the people standing outside the door at this time.

Li Xiong stood inside the door and said coldly to the access control speaker: "Who are you? What are you doing here?"

A man in a blue shirt said, "We smelled the aroma of food coming from your house and wanted to borrow some food. Or, we can buy it with money."

Li Xiong replied unhappily: "No, leave now."

At this time, a long-haired woman came forward and said softly, "Brother, our children are starving. Please sell us some food."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

"Go buy some yourself, we don't have any extra food." He ended the conversation and removed the battery from the access control system. He walked over and raised his hand, "Master, no one can disturb you now. Go on."

Chen Ye put down the skewers in his hand, then walked to the study to look at the surveillance footage and turned up the volume to listen to their conversation.

It turned out that it had been raining heavily these days and I didn’t go out, so I didn’t know that the weather outside had changed again.

After half of the rescue workers were withdrawn after the landslide in N City, heavy rains hit for several days and the water level suddenly rose by 8-9 meters. S City, which was already outnumbered, was even more isolated and helpless.

The few rescue workers were like spinning tops that never stopped to rest. They were also drenched by heavy rain for a long time and their bodies could not bear the exhaustion. Many of them collapsed.

When medicines are in short supply, some people start selling them at high prices.

The "Dahua" supermarket, which had been selling supplies at high prices from the beginning, now exchanged supplies for some medicines after selling for several days. In the end, the water level rose too fast, and I don't know if there were many supplies that were not rescued or what. Anyway, starting from the past two days, the "Dahua" supermarket has stopped selling any supplies.

It was said that the rescue team that had been on duty in the Peninsula Garden had all withdrawn to rescue the people of the city, leaving only Zhao Quan and Zhao Li's own people there. But every day there were still many neatly dressed people going there, and after a while they came out with satisfied faces.

But the rich people in Tiandu Prefecture were already worried about food, and when they smelled a hint of fragrance wafting from their neighbor's house, they threw away their former dignity as rich people and rushed over like hyenas smelling scent, hoping to get a bite of food to overcome their current predicament.

If the rich still have such a hard time, it is not difficult to imagine that ordinary people are living in hell.

Even the Peninsula Gardens were flooded to the fourth or fifth floor. Most of the residential buildings in other communities were already flooded. The roofs of old communities with only seven floors were completely gone.

When they could not wait for the rescue team, many people made simple rafts using various discarded empty bottles or other materials, trying to escape to higher floors.

The flood was raging. Before they were halfway on this road of self-rescue, the raft below scattered and fell into the rapids, rolling away with the flood.

Even in heavy rain, there are often such dangerous situations. However, being trapped in place and watching the water level rise rapidly has caused their desperate desire to survive to burst out. Even though the road ahead is dangerous, it cannot stop them from wanting to give it a try.

Some used bathtubs for children to try to send them fleeing, but many failed and were swept into the flood, leaving no trace.

These self-rescue actions of the people undoubtedly added more work for the rescue team. In addition to evacuating people, they also had to comfort the people standing in the same place waiting for the next evacuation, and from time to time they had to jump into the water to save people.

Hungry, exhausted, and with nowhere to live, the flood forced many people into a desperate situation. Many people suffered mental breakdowns, burst into tears, and then plunged into the flood, ending their lives.

This tragic and heroic act of simply going to die infected the remaining people present. They looked up in despair at the sky that was gone, and the heavy rain showed no sign of stopping. They also looked at the boundless and magnificent torrent in front of them, and without saying a word, they plunged into the water one after another.

Some were screaming, some were crying, and many were held tightly by their relatives and were unable to join in. Their faces showed no emotion and their eyes were filled with despair.

The world is like purgatory. After walking around it, not only are you skinned and boned, but you also encounter natural disasters at the end. It's really painful.

At this time, several people outside the door were still discussing in a low voice.

A man wearing a white T-shirt with a luxury brand logo printed all over it said helplessly, "I said it's impossible for anyone to sell us food at this time."

The long-haired woman said anxiously: "We can add a little more money and ask them again. Not only the children and the elderly, but we adults are also starving."

The man in the blue shirt chuckled disdainfully, "Money? What's the use of money at this time? Even the Dahua supermarket is holding on to the remaining supplies and won't sell them." He then glanced at the villa in front of him, "We've already used courtesy before force. If they are so rude, don't blame us for using force. The people over at Peninsula Garden have guns and many people are guarding. We have no way. With so many people in our community, can't we take over this house?"

He looked at the brightly lit houses in front of him. Almost every house had a generator, so it was not difficult to use electricity freely during a power outage. But now, the aroma of meat was wafting in the air. When they were talking just now, they heard the sound of music inside. I guess this family must have enough food stored.

The man in black, who had been silent the whole time, patted the thick door, then walked over and knocked on the towering wall. He then walked back to the crowd and said, "The property management said before that this family deliberately made it like this when they were renovating. I guess they must have been prepared for this. Look at this door and this wall. It's hard for us to get in."

The long-haired woman said, "How about we ask the property management to help us tomorrow?"

The man in the blue shirt was furious. "Tomorrow? I'm already starving. Without water, electricity, or food, who can survive until tomorrow?"

The crowd said nothing, and they did not believe it either.

Living in this place, everyone has some stock at home. Even if the fresh food is gone, there will still be some fast food, frozen food and dry goods. It’s just a matter of being reluctant to give them up and betting on when the flood will end.

Everyone's guess was correct, but they didn't expect that Blue Shirt's house was really searched. He had always thought that the flood would recede soon, so he stayed at home every day and enjoyed himself to his heart's content. Now, after almost a month, the refrigerator and all the cabinets are empty, and he can't even find a garlic.

Seeing that no one expressed their opinion, the man in the blue shirt said, "What? No one wants to?"

Finally, the man in black said, "Forget it. Let's ask the property management for help tomorrow morning. We don't have much confidence with just a few of us."

The long-haired woman and the man in the printed T-shirt nodded in unison.

The man in blue shirt watched everyone leave, then looked back at Chen Ye’s house, spat, and left while cursing, “I’ll teach you a lesson tomorrow.”
