2076年4月23日，清晨7点03分

On the morning of the sixth day after the disaster, Vera woke up from a deep sleep. The room was empty, and the whole room exuded an unpleasant smell. Not only was there a problem with food, but water was also extremely scarce.

They launched an attack on the mine the day before yesterday, just like breaking through the blockade of the town before, they directly hit it hard with a car, but this time Redes seemed to have been prepared for a long time, after those people rushed up the slope , when they were about to reach the entrance of the mine, they launched a sudden violent attack.

These outsiders suffered heavy losses, and more than 100 people died on the slope. After that, they no longer had any courage to attack, and began to pray to the people in the town to give them some food, but the people in the town seemed to be iron I made up my mind and decided not to give them any food.

The two sides have no words at all, and it is impossible to talk about it. Vera can only rely on a little dry food every day, and water can only go to the mountains and forests every day, and collect some plants in the morning when the temperature is low. The dew, Vera picked up some warm water under the pillow, which was the dew she had collected all day yesterday, and there was still half a bottle left.

Hunger, thirst and anxiety accompany Vera every day. Like everyone else, she can't bear it any longer. Many people here have begun to become more and more silent now, and there is an unbearable smell in the air. heavy.

Some people have already chosen to leave, driving a car that can still move, and some people who are unwilling to leave have got the car battery or gasoline, and choose to drive away.

Vera saw hundreds of people who couldn't bear to leave these days, and they didn't want to compete with others, have any disputes, and they didn't want to participate in the attack on the townspeople. The leader is planning the second attack, and Vera has also heard about their plan, but it seems that the plan is not so easy to succeed. They want to go to the water plant first, but that place is not so easy to enter.

Because the water plant was built inside a groundwater cave at the beginning, the previous water source had been polluted by mining, and was finally abandoned. As long as there are weapons, dozens of people can easily defend the place.

Vera is very clear that this place can't last for a few days, and there may be a big problem tomorrow at the most. In the past few days, the people who received the food and the people who distributed the food have had countless conflicts, but such conflicts are under the control of weapons. Under the threat and the persuasion of the people around him, he was temporarily resolved.

Vera planned to act tomorrow, taking advantage of the chaos, she planned to go directly to the mine, and now they are still planning to attack the mine, because hunger has driven most people to do so.

As soon as Vera came to the window, she saw that many people had already formed a long queue, and everyone was anxiously waiting to receive food. Although some people left in the town, most of them remained.

No one is willing to take a huge risk to leave this safe place. Someone has already used the radio to communicate, but the answer is to stick to it.

Such an ambiguous answer made everyone feel desperate. This is still the country's emergency communication channel, and the only answer they got was to stick to it.

At this time, Vera stretched her hands and touched her quilt. Soon she panicked, and there was still a bag of biscuits left, but it disappeared. Vera searched the bed, but still did not find where the biscuits were. In an instant, Vera recalled that although she hid secretly, she should have been seen by people nearby. She was a little angry, so she could only honestly go to the queue and wait for the food.

Throughout the morning, Vera, like other people in line, waited until after 9 o'clock in the morning before it was finally her turn. Vera held the utensil in her hand and looked at the porridge in the pot like clear water. Vera swallowed After taking a sip, she got a bowl of porridge and drank it quickly. Her thirsty throat was moistened a little, but her stomach started to growl.

In the past few days, what Vila heard the most was this kind of stomach growling. At this time, there was another conflict at another food acquisition point, and no one on both sides would let the other.

"How much food have you stashed away, you bastards?"

A man who seemed extremely excited said, holding up the gun in his hand, and the few people behind him did the same, pointing their guns at the people who distributed the food.

"I have already told you that we are all the same. We have not hidden any food. If you don't want to die, you can only continue to be patient!"

The person distributing the food did not show any weakness at all, and excitedly raised the gun in his hand. The two sides became more and more excited. At this time, the people in line also accused them angrily. Although someone went to persuade them, the voice of the persuader soon It was completely covered by the sound of anger, and some people left. Several people who received food with guns looked at the porridge in the pot, and one of them asked the person who distributed the food to give some more.

However, neither of the two sides would give in to the other, and they just confronted each other.

"You bastards, bastards"

The man holding the gun became more and more excited, and his hand was squeezed on the trigger little by little. At this time, the people around him all left far away, and shouts were everywhere.

砰

The gun rang out, and Vera quickly took the bowl in her hand and ran to the side of the tube. In an instant, there were gunshots and a lot of screams. Many people were busy running, and Vera was taking a bowl. He quickly drank another bowl of porridge, scooped up some sediment with a spoon, and ate it unceremoniously.

One after another, people fell to the ground. At this time, the man who shot first was already lying on the ground, and some people around who were distributing food immediately went to reinforce them.

Someone ran towards Vera like this, stretching out his head, as if he wanted to stick his head directly into the tube.

Vera felt that enough was enough, she quickly got up and ran, the whole town was full of gunshots, many people were shot and fell to the ground, shouting everywhere.

Vera quickly approached the mountain forest, and soon found her weapon and ammunition bag in one place. After putting it on her back, Vera planned to leave, but when she came to the road leading to the mine at this time, she found that many people were guarding her. , Vera could only stop.

The rioting lasted until after 11 o'clock. More than 100 people were shot in this conflict, more than 30 of them died directly, and some of them were taken to the supermarket for intensive treatment after being hit.

A large number of people went to the north of the town, clamoring that they had not received food at all. After the conflict ended, the food had basically been eaten. Many people who did not get food were protesting, while some accused Those who are in the farmland, they clearly have food in their hands, but they refuse to take it out.

When I came here on the first day, the farmland was guarded by those soldiers and no one was allowed to enter. Most people suspected that there were edible crops in the farmland, which were hidden by them.

Vera knew that there were indeed, this was for sure, because Vera had been to the farmland, there was a potato field over there, and there should be a barn where some potatoes were piled up, because there was a biodegradation pond over there, and some towns The output that cannot be sold or eaten will be thrown in, and will be naturally decomposed as biological nutrients and then soaked into the land to replenish nutrients to the land.

The first wave of intruders who maintained order in this town looked completely different from those who came later. They are still very energetic today. This is not something that can be explained by saying that everyone is the same.

More and more voices of dissatisfaction gathered, and Vera was always standing near the intersection in the northeast of the town, and some people near the intersection had already passed by, and the two sides began to draw swords at each other.

Several leading managers kept telling everyone to be patient, as long as they continue to be patient for a while, they will definitely have food for a week at most.

Let alone a week now, no one can endure even one day. Distrust has begun to spread on a large scale. Many people who did not receive food today are protesting. In the end, the leader Gerry said that no one Those who received the food lined up, and a replacement food would be issued to them.

Soon, many people lined up in a long line. Vera noticed that some people who had eaten today also lined up in the line. Soon everyone’s anger escalated again. Vera saw potatoes, and there were only small pieces of potatoes Potatoes the size of children's fists are being handed out.

This is no small problem. From Vera's point of view, she has seen too much in the past few days. Some people who received potatoes only ate a little bit, and then put away the potatoes that were just boiled in clean water.

In the past, when Vera was studying at school, she saw some great famines in human history, but seeing it with her own eyes now made Vera feel shocked.

In the end, the excitement of most people was controlled because of these potatoes, and the riot temporarily subsided.

"Gerry, who can't go on like this?"

Bob looked tiredly at the people who had dispersed before him. It was already 2 o'clock in the afternoon. Just one distribution of potatoes reduced the storage of potatoes by half. 45 days will do.

Don't talk about waiting for the harvest now, the situation will only get worse.

"No, Gerry, those bodies are gone."

Someone came to report at this time, and Gerry realized what was happening, but just shook his head.

The attack a few days ago failed very badly. Gerry and the other soldiers were very smart and didn't go up first, but let others go up first. Sure enough, the townspeople didn't plan to talk to them any more.

The disappearing bodies are not only those who died after the conflict that appeared today, but also the bodies of the townspeople.

"It's tonight."

Bob muttered something, and everyone knew that the water problem could be solved to some extent by relying on the nearby mountains and forests, but the food problem could not be solved at all.

The townspeople moved away most of the food in just one night. Gerry and others calculated that the townspeople took at least enough food to survive for more than half a year. This self-sufficient town, if Without their arrival, it is completely possible to survive this disaster.

What worries Gerry the most is the western sky, which is always dark, and it seems to be raining in the distance. Although he has made preparations in advance with everything that can be used in the village, if the rain falls after the radiation disaster, it will be harmful to the plants. Even people are deadly.

At this time, Gerry took some people and asked the remaining guards to guard the only flour and other food left in the warehouse. This was their last hope to survive.

"We have surveyed the nearby terrain, and there are villages farther away, but it seems that once they pass by, there will be conflicts. Although there are prey in the mountains and forests, the nearby mountains and forests are criss-crossed, and it is easy to get lost. , some people have gone in to hunt, but they haven’t come out until today.”

The two of them led people all the way to the road northeast of the town. At this moment, Gerry saw a woman in the crowd with her head bowed and looking a little tired. He felt as if he had seen it before, but Gerry didn't Be careful, there are many women here, like this woman, holding weapons and always wanting to participate in the attack on the mine.

Soon Gerry explained the seriousness of the situation to everyone. If they couldn't attack, they could only watch large-scale conflicts happen here.

And Gerry also made a plan that he could only climb to the forest near the mine. They have made some simple climbing facilities these days. Attacking on the flank of the enemy, and then they assault from the front, this is the best way, but also their last resort.

Vera in the crowd heard it very clearly. She waited silently. Now she can only follow these people and find a way to go to the mine after arriving at the place. The best way is to climb with them. Once they climb up If so, Vera will be able to get in touch with Redes and the others, and it will be safe then.

However, something unexpected happened at this time, and there was an aroma in the air. This smell was all too familiar to everyone, it was the smell of barbecue.

For a moment, everyone looked towards the back of the town, and at this moment Gerry and Bob realized something, and they were still in serious disagreement over who rushed up the slope first after launching the two-wing attack. People are willing to be the first to rush up, because the first one to rush up has a 100% chance of dying.

Soon Vera didn't follow the flow of people moving towards the town, but walked on the road after finding the right timing.

"Miss, where are you going?"

At this moment, a man asked, and Vera stared at him sideways and said.

"I don't want to wait to die. I want to find something to eat by myself instead of being attracted by the smell."

Vera started running. At this time, she had a plan in mind. Although the townspeople now have food and drink every day, the situation will be different after two or three months. Although it is not known when the disaster will happen Invades the environment here, but it is still possible to grow some potatoes.

The situation will change in a few months. At that time, it will be the townspeople who will be hungry. This is the most direct problem Vera has thought about in the past few days. They seem to be determined to station in this town.

Vera intends to go back and have a good talk with Redes. If this continues, one day, the famished crowd will rush up desperately. This is not a compromise, but inevitable.

Soon Gerry and Bob came to the north of the town. What they saw made many people cover their mouths. Some timid people turned around and ran, and many people gathered around a bonfire lit with firewood. Beside, Gerry and Bob did not lean over, some people blamed.

"You will become like us after a while."

A person who was dealing with "food" spoke and threw a big bone into the boiling pot. Many people swallowed, and some people gritted their teeth and leaned over.

Although everything in front of them is difficult for many people to accept, the reality is that if they do not accept it, they will starve to death.

Some people approached, and Bob stopped them, but no one listened to them, and gradually more and more people approached, and some even helped to deal with the "food".

Gerry stopped Bob, shaking his head at him.

"Just let them go."

All the "food" was carried over, and there were even some foul-smelling things among them, but some people didn't care anymore, and instead waited impatiently by the campfire.

In the eyes of everyone, everything in front of them is a rich and delicious meal.

At this time, Vera was already running on this road alone. The road was no longer the same as it was a few days ago. There were many people and no one was there. Vera was running crazily.

When it was almost dusk, Vera finally came to the bottom of the mine. She was sitting on the ground hungry, almost unable to walk, and one thing that came to her mind was that there were terrible and cruel voices in the town. Because she saw it, the reason why she wanted to escape was because she saw many people carrying corpses.

Vera walked up the slope little by little, raised her hands, and kept shouting. At this time, the people on the slope were holding guns, but soon several people came down, and Redes was among them.

"Oh my god, Vera, you're still alive!"

With a firm hug, Vera breathed a sigh of relief. After a while, Vera returned to the repaired roadblock. Some people brought Vera some food, and Vera devoured it. It was just some roasted food. It is made of bread, but it tastes very sweet. In the past, Vera didn't like this kind of hard black bread, but now it tastes very sweet.

"sister!"

At this time, Fred came out of the crowd full of misunderstandings, and ran over excitedly. Vera smiled and watched her brother come over, and then stretched out her hand to hold him.

"It's all right, Fred, it's all right."

Afterwards, Vera told the people in the town how she survived among the outsiders. Many people laughed and scolded them for what they deserved, but at this moment, Vera's expression sank.

"The situation shouldn't be like this. It's okay for three or four months, but what are we going to do after four and five months? There's just a little bit of planting land."

At this time, many people were uncomfortable, and many people were sad. Many people understood what Vera said after a little thought, especially when they contacted the national channel on the radio, they only received the four words of "persevere" This matter made many people feel uneasy.

"Indeed, we have to talk to them. What can you do, smart girl!"

Vera said with a smile.

"Let them hand over all their weapons and obey us completely, and we will watch over their work in the planting land. A master-servant relationship must be established."

Redes nodded, and many people also thought it was correct.

"Let's go, let's bring some people and go with them now"

Vera shook her head.

"Not now, but in a week. They will be completely defeated in just a week. If they go now, they may take the opportunity to raise some conditions, but they will obey unconditionally in a week."

Redes looked at Vera with an evil face, and felt that this girl had completely transformed and had been lurking in the town for a week.

"Where are they?"

"It's only the sixth day, and they've already started eating."

Everyone looked at Vila in shock. Such a serious tragedy happened in the town. Although some people had vaguely thought about it, many people were shocked by the fact that it happened now. This is only the sixth day, and it will happen unexpectedly. this kind of thing.

"People are far more fragile than we think."

Redus said, looking at Fred, who was trembling in astonishment, these days he kept saying that he wanted to go back to the town to find his sister, but after trying many times, Fred didn't dare to go back. Si sighed helplessly.

"How about we send them a little food, anyway"

"Absolutely not, I hope everyone can work together in the future, because we are all people who grew up in this place, instead of pity them, if we pity them, who will pity us?"

Everyone nodded silently for a moment, and many people listening nearby looked at Vera seriously. At this time, Vera stood up and stood on a table.

"Next, I will make some detailed divisions, a week-long division, I hope everyone can obey the order, if you want to live!"

As Vera spoke, many people admired Vera, and Redes smiled helplessly. Although he was the nominal leader here, today the real leader was born here.

Afterwards, Vera and the people who kept approaching directly explained the seriousness of the situation and what they were going to do in seven days. Many people were terrified, but no one refuted, and they were all listening carefully, because it was related to them. The question of future survival.

Vera's passionate speech was quickly recognized by most people.

"Okay, now I hope everyone will follow what I just said. I will ask you one by one and assign you to suitable positions."

The applause rang out, and Redes couldn't help clapping, but Fred's expression was stiff at this time, feeling that his sister had become strange and cold.
