Chapter 78 Future Crisis


Chapter 78 Future Crisis

"Now the Public Security Bureau and the City Defense Guard are busy cleaning up the mess left by the monsters, which just gives these people a chance to cause trouble." Sun Hang glanced at the light-transmitting gun holes on the car body and said.

"Today is just the beginning." The driver said with a grimace. "Eternal night is coming. When the news is officially announced tomorrow, there will be many difficult days ahead. By then, let alone these lunatics who worship weird things, even ordinary people People, under the pressure of survival, will also become robbers and gangsters..."

"Ordinary people?" Sun Hang was slightly startled, "A strict control system should be implemented by then, right? Ordinary people should not..."

"You are still too young." The driver sighed again, "In the first two years, we may be able to barely maintain social order, but as time goes by, something will happen sooner or later. Without daylight, it means that Shuzhou's local food production has basically dropped to zero. , all food, as well as a lot of other necessities of life, must be obtained from other It doesn't even take two years for the local government to transfer it. In just a few months, the price of food in Shuzhou will rise significantly. There are 60 million people in the entire Shuzhou area. When all the food depends on external support, management will be difficult. There is no way the committee can feed everyone.”

The driver continued: "Furthermore, Shuzhou itself is one of the important grain-producing areas of the Xiazhou Federation. If I remember correctly, the news mentioned in the past two years that Shuzhou's grain production accounts for almost 15% of the entire federation. Proportion. The current total food output and consumption of the federation is only Barely maintaining a balance, when this eternal night comes, there is a direct reduction of 15% of the food production, and there are 60 million more mouths waiting for food... Tsk, to put it more Westernly, it is called a 'food crisis', in common parlance. , then there will be a famine.”

"..." Sun Hang fell into silence. When he had no worries about food and clothing, he rarely considered the food needs of the public. But for senior managers, this issue cannot be ignored.

Wheat and rice cannot grow on land without sunlight, and the low temperature caused by perpetual night makes it difficult for fungi and crops that do not require photosynthesis to survive... Food cannot be bought in supermarkets with money, but must be bought by farmers. They worked hard to grow it in the ground.

"If the most basic food and clothing problem cannot be solved, the hungry people will have no choice but to take desperate risks..." the driver said, "I just called my wife and asked her to stock up on food and biological necessities. Waiting here After the work is over, I will go home to strengthen the doors and windows, purchase some self-defense equipment, and then take my parents over to live in the countryside... Well, I don't know what the future will be like. "

"Why don't you leave Shuzhou? Find a new job somewhere else?" Sun Hang asked, "The institute won't force you to stay, right?"

"Where can I go? Qinzhou? Fog City? Or to Jingchu?" The driver said with a bitter look on his face, "I drove for fourteen years before I reluctantly bought a house in Tianfu New District and paid off the mortgage. There are only six years left to pay it off, so you can’t let me abandon the house and become a refugee somewhere else, right?”

Sun Hang: "..."

"Those who are rich and can leave must have left early, and those who are left behind are those who can't leave, or are reluctant to leave. We can only hope that the eternal night will last for a shorter time, and it will be over in three to five years. If it’s eight or ten years, you’ll just have to endure it.” As the driver spoke, he suddenly spat out the window and cursed viciously, “Damn it, you’re a thousand-knife killer!”< br>


……

The rescue convoy quickly arrived at the area where Sun Hang and the others were. Medical staff in white coats carried Song Yarong into the ambulance on a stretcher, and the wound on the driver's arm was also treated again.

Heavily armed city defense soldiers pulled up a yellow and black cordon and blocked the entire road. A light wheeled armored vehicle was parked at the intersection, and the ammunition belt of the vehicle-mounted machine gun was exposed on the street light. It emits a coppery luster under the light.

Good news also came from Ye Jiu's side - the attacker's vehicle was "stopped" by two rockets after forcibly crashing through three roadblocks. The driver and the thug sitting in the passenger seat He died on the spot and the two people in the back row were seriously injured.

"If I hadn't spent too much time dealing with the shadows just now, I could have captured all of these people by myself!" Ye Jiu said in the communication channel.

"Why capture him? Just kill him." Sun Hang said calmly.

He has no mercy for such people. "Uh..." Ye Jiu was stunned for half a second, and then said, "Even if the death penalty is imposed, the regular interrogation process still needs to be followed... Besides, this group of people should have accomplices, which is also the main purpose of the interrogation. ”

"I'm quite curious, where did they get the military vehicles and firearms?" Sun Hang asked.

Now that the entire Tianfu City is under martial law, civilian vehicles are strictly prohibited from traveling, so only military vehicles can pass without hindrance.

"The car and the gun belong to the Fourth Company of the City Defense Guard. They were attacked by this group of people when they were blocking the monsters in the city. They killed four soldiers of the City Defense Guard and took away the car and two pieces of it." Type 04 carbine, and more than a hundred rounds of ammunition - this group of thugs originally planned to take advantage of the chaos to leave the city. On the way, they happened to see the logo of the Institute of Creatures printed on the car we were riding in, so they improvised and pointed it at Our cars were fired at once," Ye Jiu said.

"Have your accomplices asked?" Sun Hang asked.

"Not yet, the remaining two are too seriously injured and are currently being rescued."

"Rescue is a waste...a waste of medical resources." Sun Hang muttered, "My suggestion is to cut off their heads and hang them on street lamps as a warning to others."

"...You are too barbaric. This is a civilized society!" Ye Jiu couldn't help but accuse, "And if you do this, it will cause panic among the people."

"If the eternal night continues, this city will only become more barbaric." After Sun Hang finished speaking, he hung up the communication.

Instead of returning to the institute with the rescue team, he randomly found a shared bicycle on the roadside and rode back in the direction of "home".

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

After so many days of hard work, he was already very tired. He planned to have a good sleep first - no matter what happened, we would talk about it tomorrow.

It's ironic to say that after the villa was assigned to Sun Hang, Sun Hang had never slept on the bed in the bedroom.

After parking the shared bicycle, Sun Hang walked into the yard.

The door of the villa was tightly closed, but the window on the side was open.

There were obvious signs of deformation at the bottom of the metal window frame, which had obviously been pried open by force.

"There was a burglar at home...?"
