Natural Disaster: My Portable Farm in the End of the World
Chapter 33 Power Outage
Xu Tao's impatience made him angry at that time.
"Damn it! Someone has stolen this? It would be exhausting to pick it out by yourself..."
Han Dongdong was also very angry, mainly because he felt sorry for the few potatoes he had chosen out of thousands.
Han Dongdong: "That's right! Who are you? You're so lazy. Curse you for stepping on your shoelaces when you go out, and you'll eat shit if you fall..."
Xiang Chi saw Han Dongdong with an angry look on his face from a distance, his hands on his hips and he was saying something loudly, and he was a little worried.
I told the four old men to be careful not to be crowded.
Dad Xiang: "Don't worry, I'm more flexible than you, don't worry."
Several old people were in high spirits and were busy grabbing food without looking back.
Xu Ge looked around and confirmed that there was no problem, then led Xiang Chi towards Han Dongdong and Xu Tao.
After asking, they found out that the cart had been pushed away. Xiang Chi and Xu Ge were stunned. They were surprised at first, then suppressed their laughter and advised them not to be angry. Being angry would be harmful to their health...
There was also a long queue at checkout. When Xiang Chi and the others went out, there was a steady stream of people rushing into the supermarket.
It seems that the introduction of the purchase restriction order has really aroused people's fragile nerves, and everyone is determined not to leave until they spend all their quota for the day.
However, when there were more people, there were also more people trying to fish in troubled waters, and several thefts occurred in just a short time.
People like Han Dongdong and others who had their carts pushed away in the supermarket were just unlucky. They met unqualified people and just spent a little more time choosing things again.
What's even more unlucky is that several people have already finished checking out of the supermarket, and one of them accidentally lost a package of things.
There are people all around, and everyone is carrying big and small bags. It’s hard to find anything if it’s lost.
After throwing away the worthless money and cursing a few words, he considered himself unlucky.
Some people have lost rice and white flour, but they are not willing to accept it. Find the armed police around and ask the armed police to catch the thief.
The task of several armed police officers is to maintain order on the scene and cannot leave their posts without authorization, but now that the masses are in trouble, they cannot refuse.
Finally, the captain was called. After explaining the situation, the captain coordinated the personnel and sent a team member to help the uncles and aunts who had lost their things catch the thieves.
Not to mention, Brother Bing took action, one against the other, and soon a group of thieves were caught.
A little yellow-haired boy had just succeeded and was sharing the stolen goods with his accomplices when he was caught. Now both of them got the stolen goods, and even if they denied it, they could not deny it.
It turned out that the weather was hot and there were a lot of people. The old and angry men who had just lost their things didn't care about anything else. They wanted to give them a good beating first to vent their anger!
Brother Bing couldn't stop him alone. By the time they pulled the uncles and aunties away, Huang Mao'er and his accomplices were already lying on the ground with bruises and swollen faces, screaming "Ouch... Ouch".
Xiang Chi and the others watched for a while. Father Xu shook his head and lamented that at such a young age, he could do something bad and steal things.
Moreover, it is really audacious to choose to target the elderly during this sensitive period.
The group of people put their things in the car and discussed that it would be safer if at least Xu Ge or Xu Tao were there when they went out to buy things.
There are not many people who take the risk, but it is not impossible. If they dare to steal today, they will dare to rob tomorrow. If there are so many people, you dare to attack. It would be bad if something unexpected happened in a quiet place with few people.
Xiang Chi recalled that when Huang Mao's accomplice was caught, the switchblade fell to the ground during the struggle, and felt a little uneasy. The world... I'm afraid it has changed.
On the way home, I met several neighbors from the same community. It seems that he returned home with a full load.
……
Just when people were about to get used to this way of life, something changed again.
One night at around eleven o'clock, Xu Ge was watching the news channel when the TV screen suddenly disappeared and the lights in the living room flickered and went out.
Dad Xiang and Dad Xu were playing chess next to them. Suddenly, their vision went dark, and they were a little confused. Before they could say anything, Xu's mother heard an exclamation from the kitchen.
Xiang Chi hurried over, and it turned out that Xu's mother was just about to cut vegetables. She was startled when the light suddenly went out, and she almost cut her hand.
By the light of the gas stove, Xiang Chi helped Xu's mother sit on the sofa.
Xu Ge took a flashlight and checked the main gate. There was no problem.
Xu Ge: "There must be a power outage. There is no problem with the switch at home."
Xiang Chi and Xu Ge came to the yard and looked at the neighbors around them. It was also dark.
There are several beams of light shaking in the distance. It should be a neighbor checking the circuit.
The terrain of Biliu Community is very high, and you can see half of Dancheng City from the pavilion in the community park.
Xu Ge and Xiang Chi arrived at the pavilion with flashlights on. When Xiang Chi looked down, his heart dropped.
The city below the mountain was also completely dark!
After watching for a while, although a small part of the city turned on the lights again, there was still no movement in the rest of the city, and Xiang Chi's neighborhood was still dark.
It seems that the problem is not with the circuit in their community, but with the circuit in Dan City as a whole. And it's not a small problem.
Xiang Chi called Xue Can and asked if there was a power outage at her home.
Xue Can's home is in the east of the city, just across the entire urban area from Xiang Chi's home.
Xue Can: "It stopped, but the call came within a few minutes. I was shocked. It would be difficult to deal with a power outage in this weather."
Xiang Chi was silent, not only was it difficult to deal with, but fortunately it was midnight. If the power was out during the day, there was no telling how much trouble would have occurred.
The temperature during the day is now over 50 degrees, and every home cannot do without air conditioners and fans.
Some people who don’t have air conditioning at home spend the day in subway stations, railway stations, large supermarkets and even hospital lobbies using air conditioning.
The government can't do anything about these phenomena, so it can't just leave them alone, right? That's no different than forcing people to die.
When the human body is in a high temperature environment of more than 50 degrees, symptoms of difficulty breathing and dehydration will appear within a few minutes. If you cannot replenish water in time, you will basically die of dehydration.
The skin can also be burned by the sun, and if you are exposed to high temperatures for a long time, heat stroke can also lead to multiple organ failure.
This also shows that if the power supply is not restored until daytime tomorrow, there will be a lot of casualties.
The two of them walked home thoughtfully. When they passed by the small square, they saw a small group of people gathered in the square. It seemed that they came out to ask the real estate agent about the situation.
The two knew that there was nothing the property management could do during the power outage, so they went home without stopping.
Sure enough, not long after arriving home, a notification was sent to the property management group.
The cause of this power outage was a fault in a high-voltage power supply line of the power supply company, which caused the main transformer to suddenly trip and stop.
Biliu Community happens to be within the scope of the faulty line, and operation and maintenance personnel are already working on repairs, but the specific time for power restoration cannot be determined yet.
Then there are some words to ask everyone to be patient and wait patiently.
