I'm Hoarding for the Apocalypse

People’s Hearts Are Wavering

After a few months, the people had gone from panicking and being uneasy at the beginning to becoming anxious before finally becoming numb to it all.

A week ago, there was a complete power outage. The high temperature caused several fires to break out almost every day. The entire city’s electrical circuits were destroyed, and there was no possibility of repair.

The complete power outage caused a very serious blow to the lives of the residents on the higher floors. Some high-rise residents would exchange their family’s supplies with the people on the lower floors and move to the lower floors.

Du Yue was the only one left on the 16th floor. The others had all moved downstairs.

These days, Du Yue’s life had been relatively comfortable, but she would occasionally encounter some unexpected situations. Du Yue was once followed by people with ill intentions when she went out.

After all, Du Yue gave off the impression of a weak little girl. It was inevitable that some people would have improper thoughts about her supplies. f𝔯ℯe𝓌ℯ𝐛𝒏𝐨ѵel.c𝚘𝐦

However, ever since Du Yue broke the arm and leg of the man who followed her and tried to steal her supplies in front of everyone, no one dared to lay their hands on her. 𝘧𝒓e𝑒𝑤e𝙗𝚗o𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝐜𝐨ｍ

Although there were many inconveniences in life on the higher floors compared to life on the lower floors, Du Yue was used to living in her own home. She did not want to exchange houses with others, nor did she want to live a noisy life with a group of people. Although it was a little troublesome to live alone on the higher floors, it was good that everything was quiet here.

Now, other than going out every day, everything else went on as usual. The water and electricity cuts did not affect Du Yue much.

From December onward, large chain supermarkets were no longer allowed to be operated by individuals or companies. The management rights belonged to the state.

Those who previously robbed and caused trouble in the supermarkets no longer dared to do so. They could only target the people who left the supermarkets after buying the supplies.

Du Yue had also been targeted several times. The two parties would only just brush past each other, but it was enough for Du Yue to notice the other party’s strong bloodlust.

It was easier for Du Yue to deal with bad people like them who already had blood on their hands. She would not show any mercy to such people and would send them to hell directly.

In the dark night, people were killed for their supplies.

The city had fallen into a terrifying state. As soon as night fell, people would be killed in unknown corners and die tragically.

The country had also sent many people to patrol and manage the city, but the effect was minimal.

Since they did not know when they might die a tragic death, who would care about the law and rules

The days passed by, and it was soon Chinese New Year. The entire country was not in the mood for the new year. Instead, the atmosphere was getting heavier and heavier.

The extremely high temperature caused food to almost have no shelf life. Even if it was raw food, it would be a breeding ground for insects in a very short time. In the old world, even if rice started breeding worms, they would be the size of a sesame seed. But now, the worms were two to three times bigger than before, even bigger than the average rice grain.

When most people opened the bags of rice and saw the dark mass of bugs crawling in the rice, they would feel nauseated.

Now, it was not easy to buy food. It was not easy to get their hands on rice, but it was easy for rice to be the breeding ground for insects and the rice could no longer be eaten. How could people accept this

There were still people sending messages in the community group chat from time to time, but gradually, everyone lost the desire to communicate and the group chat became quiet.

Those who had previously agreed to travel together to purchase supplies had all gone their separate ways and began to act on their own. It was obvious that there was a conflict.

The group was a temporary team to begin with, so there was no affection between them. Everyone was in an alliance with the mentality of using each other. Now that there was a conflict of interest between the parties, they naturally went their separate ways.

This was also the reason why Du Yue had never thought of forming an alliance with anyone in the beginning.

On the evening of the 30th day of the lunar calendar, Du Yue took out a plate of dumplings made with three kinds of meat from the interspace as well as a broccoli salad, a West Lake fish cooked in vinegar sauce, braised prawns, braised beef, and a bottle of red wine. The dishes filled the entire table. Du Yue enjoyed the food while watching the Spring Festival galas of previous years. She spent the last day of the year alone.
