After hanging up the phone with Gu Tongwan, Liao Yunyun didn't take it seriously at first, but for some reason her mind recalled the various apocalyptic novels and movies she had read before. She bit her lip and finally rushed to the bathroom to fill a bathtub with water.

As a result, I received a message from the community owners group halfway through. The property management said that due to continuous heavy rains, the water supply equipment was damaged, and there would be a complete water outage in the community starting at 7pm.

This news spread like wildfire in the group, everyone began to feel uneasy, and this emotion gradually fermented in everyone's heart.

Some people began to speculate that the water outage might be followed by a large-scale power outage, so they frantically charged their rechargeable devices while there was still electricity.

Liao Yunyun hurried to fill the bathtub with water, and then found three washbasins and two buckets in the house, and pulled out five large plastic boxes from her own cloakroom to fill them with water. She also filled the two empty barrels of water that had been replaced at home. Later, when she was tidying up the room, she saw the portable inflatable bathtub she had bought before, and started to fill it with water again. In a short while, the bathroom and the living room were filled with buckets, and it took almost six hours to fill all the containers with water.

The main reason is that the residents on other floors also thought so. Everyone was collecting water, so the water volume on the high floors dropped suddenly. It also takes time to collect water, but looking at the full buckets, they can add up to 1.5 cubic meters of water.

After doing all this, I went to the corridor to look for the small half bag of cement.

Fortunately, the cement was still there, and she quietly pulled all the cement back home. Even if the people next door remembered it, it would be a matter for later. Who would have expected that it was definitely her who took it? After all, it could have been anyone of the four households on her floor.

After finishing all this, Liao Yunyun was so tired that she lay down on the sofa. She took a photo and sent it to Gu Tongwan to tell her about her "achievements". She received an emoticon of "well done" from the other party, and then she was reminded not to send photos to others to show off and to be more cautious.

Liao Yunyun recalled a post she saw in the group some time ago. It seemed that someone broke into a house during a rainstorm, and was discovered by the owner. The two sides started a fight, and in the end the owner was stabbed.

It seemed that just a rainstorm had given rise to some bad ideas. Liao Yunyun suddenly shuddered, silently got up, locked the door, and propped it up with a chair.

In fact, it was not just Liao Yunyun who was collecting water. Gu Tongwan was also collecting water. Although the water in her space was enough for the future generations to use for ten or twenty years, her years of living in the apocalypse had made her like to hoard everything. She also took out the washbasins and buckets at home. The water supply to the Zijing community might be cut off within three days, so she had to prepare in advance.

I took Aoao and Tutu into the bathroom in the hall, put some pet shampoo on them, and planned to give the two little ones a thorough wash while there was still water.

In fact, ever since Aoao and Tutu have been nourished with the spiritual spring water in the space, there is basically no pet odor on their bodies, and their hair is even fluffy and clean. They look much more beautiful than the dogs that have been groomed in the pet shop.

Especially Tutu, with his fluffy white hair and round eyes, looks like a giant Samoyed at first glance. He shows a natural smile when he sticks out his tongue, and is the most handsome one among them. On the other hand, Aoao is more domineering. When he stands still, he has an upright posture and gradually develops the temperament of a wolf.

Tutu was relatively well behaved during the bath, and really enjoyed the massage given to it by Gu Tongwan. Aoao was more naughty, shaking off the water and jumping around in the bath, making Gu Tongwan all wet.

After washing, he dried the two cubs. When he was done, Gu Tongwan was so tired that he wanted to lie down. He thought silently in his heart, since the two cubs are so smart, can they learn to take a bath by themselves?

On the 33rd day of the apocalypse, the water supply to Zijing Community began to be cut off.
