Chapter 1479: Surviving the Doomsday 14


Chapter 1479: Surviving the Doomsday 14

You are right. It is possible that the food rations were reduced due to the influx of so many soldiers. This amount of food is simply not enough for adults or growing children.

Xining stood up and stood on the edge of the bed below, looking at Jack lying on the upper bunk with a smile. It looked like Jack didn't know what she was going to do.

"The child's father!" As soon as Xining spoke, Jack almost choked. Fortunately, he had eaten all the food he was supposed to eat just now.

"You want to support your family so soon? Don't worry, we won't starve to death. As long as you are here, we will definitely not be the ones who die first." Xining smiled, stretched out his hand, and tucked Jack into the quilt. Then he lowered his head, lay down on the bed below and fell asleep.

It seemed a little too gentle... Jack was in a daze. After a while, he came back to his senses and felt that something was wrong with what he just said. After thinking about it, he suddenly understood. What happens when food is scarce? What will happen when there is the greatest shortage and people are about to starve to death? That is, people can also become food.

At that time, you have to find a way to prevent yourself or your family from becoming food.

Although there was a mattress under him and the shelter had central air conditioning, Jack still felt eerie. This woman was thinking long term and hoped this wouldn't happen.

People are constantly pouring into the shelter. When they arrive, the first thing they do is find an empty bed to sleep on.

But obviously, the number of people arriving was not as many as originally estimated, and with half a day left, there were still empty beds.

During this day, the only entertainment was the televisions hanging around. Various variety shows and videos are played starting at nine o'clock in the morning every day, and are turned off at eight o'clock in the evening.

Someone brought playing cards and found three people to play poker on the sidelines. Most people are either watching TV or in a daze.

Three meals a day are given, but the amount is very small. In addition to one packet of milk per person, women and children are given one piece of bread, while men are given two pieces of bread. If it is an individual, a piece of luncheon meat or sausage is given, and for a family, more is given. a little.

Some people argued that this was unfair, but the staff still distributed it this way. Those noisy people were locked up in a separate place and released after they woke up. It seemed that they would be locked up at least until the comet hit the earth.

If someone talks about human rights and freedom. He was still clamoring to see his superiors and officers! It's ridiculous, these people are so childish at this time, they are really spoiled citizens.

The person in charge here has a very simple approach. If you can't accept the rules here, just go outside.

As a result, there was greater dissatisfaction. More than a dozen people united and clamored for equality, relying on the strength of the people.

Xining gnawed on the bread and watched quietly. Sure enough, what happened was as she expected. These dozen people were beaten in front of the rioters and fell to the ground with their heads in their hands, screaming in agony. They were then dragged out of the shelter by the soldiers and were never seen back.

The parents, wives and children among them went to inquire about the situation, and the news they received was that all the people had been sent to the island closest to here. If anyone else wanted to follow, there was still a flight available.

Xining liked this. If it were her, she would do the same.

If you do your own evil, you will not live. In this case, if you still want to be like the refugees from a certain country before, you can do whatever you want.

A wolf that is not well-raised will never know how to be grateful. It will always show its sharp teeth to hunt when it is not full, even if there is a good person in front of it to feed it.

If he is not a white-eyed wolf, he is also a self-righteous fool, and he is hopelessly stupid. Such people should find ways to survive on their own and give up the survival resources here to others.

The sound played by the TV was not very loud, and someone could be heard being sent out again. Most of the people inside are still doing their own things. Such as watching TV, playing cards, sleeping, and being in a daze.

Xining picked a place where he could lean and stayed with Casey. After she heard it, she sighed slightly. Jack on the other side of her noticed: "What are you sighing for?"

"It's such a pity that the food reserves are running low." She sighed with regret again.

With fewer people, there will be more food. Why do you say the food reserves are running low?

Jack understood instantly and stared at her...

At this time, there was a joke movie on the TV, but no one could laugh. The entire shelter was immersed in the tension before the doomsday. Some people were talking and talking, but if their voices were a little louder, soldiers would come to remind them to keep quiet.

At this moment, most people are mentally fragile, and any negative news may cause people to collapse and then do something stupid. You must know that even if you take a plane, some people will have hallucinations and even commit suicide, let alone such a disaster.

It took Jack a while before he spoke: "Freezing consumes electricity."

Xining held her chin and thought for a while, then said softly and seriously: "You can hang it in the air conditioner to dry, or use it quickly."

Jack held back his laughter for a few seconds and his body trembled slightly: "Are all doctors so realistic?"

"Maybe." Xining took out a small piece of compressed biscuit from his pocket, about the size of a mahjong tile, and secretly stuffed it into Jack's hand.

When she went to the supermarket, she specially bought some. These items were small, but such a small piece could hold up half a pack of ordinary biscuits.

What? After Jack glanced at it, he immediately closed his palms and slowly put his hands into his pocket without changing his expression.

Xi Ning secretly praised, this guy is not stupid, he is all the way. It seems that he will lie down on the upper bunk and secretly eat the compressed biscuits.

Even though the food supply is currently low, which can only be regarded as a sign of tension, many people are eating the food they brought in. But after the food is gone, some people's eyes will be on others, especially those who brought food in before.

Jack lowered his voice and asked: "How much?"

It should refer to how many compressed biscuits there are.

She looked at the TV and answered: "About fifty, that's all on the shelf." There was one unopened box and one half-opened box. If there were any left, she would buy them all. No one usually buys this kind of thing, unless they buy a few for camping or something.

Jack seemed relieved: "That should be enough."

Xining looked at the TV: "I don't know, it just depends on the oxygen content outside, and when the burning and volcanic eruptions will stop. But generally speaking, shelters will prepare enough food reserves for five to ten years, lunch The shelf life on canned meat is twenty years. It is said that the shelf life of cans in some countries is fifty years!”

This means that as long as the place can withstand collisions, basic survival can still be guaranteed by eating and drinking.

Someone actually went to the waste bin, picked up the empty can box and looked at it, with a surprised look on his face: "It's really twenty years!" Everyone looked at it one after another and talked in low voices, but it was obvious that there was hope in the words. .

After Jack looked at her, he continued to watch TV.
