A week after Li Gengrong lost his job again, the weather reached 44 degrees Celsius. Li Gengrong moved the water to a cool place as much as possible and covered it with a lid. Even if it was a small water cup, he would cover it with a book.

The entire room was filled with various buckets, basins, and kettles he bought, as well as a lot of bottled water purchased with points, leaving only some room to walk.

Even after preparing so much water, Li Gengrong was still panicking.

During this period, Huang Jiajun came to greet him, and Li Gengrong covered him with two big cloths to express his gratitude. He did not open the door for anyone else who came.

After Huang Jiajun knew that Yang Kailin had not come back, he never came again.

Li Gengrong began his own journey of keeping water.

Get up in the morning when it's cool, cook the day's meals, and then take out the water that can be collected today.

It was hottest at noon and afternoon, so Li Gengrong went back to catch up on his sleep.

It is more dangerous at night. Li Gengrong always goes to bed very late. At this time, it is easy for someone to steal.

Just like this, another week passed, and the temperature reached 46 degrees Celsius. Li Gengrong could clearly feel that his condition was getting worse. He had no strength without drinking water.

At this time, the base provided less and less water. Fortunately, Li Gengrong still had the water he had saved before, otherwise his physical condition would be even worse.

The temperature was too high, and I had to drink an average of two or three bottles of water every day. Even so, it was still very difficult.

It was too hot today, so Li Gengrong couldn't help but drink an extra glass of water. He couldn't help but add salt, hoping it would feel better.

Just like this, saving and saving, guarding the water every day, a month later the temperature reached 50 degrees.

The flesh that Li Gengrong grew after arriving at the base seemed to have been dried in the sun, and now he is thin and thin. On the one hand, he was reluctant to eat, and on the other hand, he couldn't eat it.

You need to drink a lot of water to eat one meal. Now the base only gives you a glass of water every day, which is not enough to quench your thirst, let alone eat.

The water in those basins and buckets has been almost used up, and half of the bottled water I bought before has been consumed, and Yang Kailin hasn't come back yet.

Li Gengrong's situation is all good. The people in his small courtyard are not short of water. Their boss is a water superpower himself, so they didn't say there was any dispute or conspiracy.

If he was still living in an aid house, it would have been robbed of everything by now.

He might even be skinned and drank blood. After all, he secretly hid so much water. No one would be jealous and no one would want to vent their anger.

In fact, there have been several vicious murder cases in the base outside the courtyard, but he couldn't see outside and no one was talking to him about it, so he didn't know about it.

But Li Gengrong didn’t want to know either.

He was very clear about the chaos at the end of the world, and it was because he was so clear and so clear that he realized that he could do nothing to help. Water shortage was a destined problem for the base.

Li Gengrong couldn't help but think about Yang Kailin again. At this time, he hoped that he would still stay in City B, otherwise it would be really hot if he encountered it on the road...

Another week passed, and Li Gengrong only had water left in two large buckets. He drank the water in other containers when he couldn't bear it anymore, and there were still five cases of bottled water left.

If it wasn't for the extreme heat, Li Gengrong wouldn't even know he could drink water so well.

The bright sun hung high in the sky. Li Gengrong took a sip of the water in the cup. It was so hot that he wanted to shoot the sun down.

He hasn't gone out for a long time and doesn't dare to go out. There is still a lot of food but it is dry.

But there was good news. The base announced that it would distribute food and water to the Human Resources Bureau. Li Gengrong looked at the sun outside and felt like he would die if he went out.

At this time, there was a burst of panicked footsteps in the small courtyard, and Li Gengrong was stunned for a moment. This was the first time someone had entered the small courtyard in so long.

Li Gengrong immediately hid on the wall next to the door. He heard footsteps walking quickly into the small courtyard and Huang Jiajun's voice.

Sure enough, Huang Jiajun knocked on his door, but Li Gengrong hesitated and did not open it.

Huang Jiajun went to knock on the door next door. The person living next door to Li Gengrong was a member of their special ability team. When he heard his voice, he opened the door quickly.

"What happened to the yellow team?" asked the team member next door.

Huang Jiajun hurriedly said, "Did you see anyone going out next door to you?"

"No." The team member said.

"Then have you seen the person next to you?" Huang Jiajun asked again.

The team member shook his head, "I haven't seen it. It seems that he hasn't opened the door since you last visited him."

Huang Jiajun said, "Oh no, I won't die next door!"

"It's over, it's over. I've been too lazy to come see him these days. Unexpectedly, he got into an accident. It's over!" Huang Jiajun said angrily, "I'm such a pig!"

"I'm going to be scolded to death!"

Li Gengrong reacted immediately when he heard what he said. He quietly opened a small opening, took another sip of water and asked Huang Jiajun, "Is Yang Kailin back?"

Huang Jiajun was stunned for a moment and rushed over immediately, "Yes, yes, you come with me? He is in the military infirmary now."

Li Gengrong thought for a while, opened the door, put on his backpack, and put a bottle of water in the backpack.

Huang Jiajun looked at him in shock, "Why are you so thin..."

Li Gengrong hadn't spoken to anyone for a long time. He was so numb that he couldn't help but drink from the kettle. "...It's too hot and I have no appetite."

In fact, the main reason is that he has been unable to adapt to the high temperature and his mood has been depressed, so he consumes a lot of physical and mental energy.

Huang Jiajun said exaggeratedly, "You... your reaction is a bit big after the extreme heat has passed for so long."

Li Gengrong smiled bitterly, "Ordinary people are like this."

Huang Jiajun stopped talking and turned around to ask for an umbrella from the team member next door.

It was still too hot to walk under the sun under an umbrella. Li Gengrong sighed. Fortunately, he didn't have to walk for too long. Huang Jiajun had a motorcycle.

Huang Jiajun lifted up the sun protection cloth of the motorcycle, then stepped on it, "Come up, come up, you will fall apart before you reach the army."

Li Gengrong didn't force himself. Anyway, his lover's family would come to Yang Kailin to get him back, so there was no need for him to be pretentious.

He couldn't walk such a long way.

In just twenty minutes' journey, Li Gengrong had already passed out from the heat.

It was Huang Jiajun who slapped him awake later, otherwise he might have died from his sleep.

"Come on, come on, have a drink of water." Huang Jiajun handed over his water, and Li Gengrong took it and drank it immediately.

I drank it all in one go. I didn’t feel bad drinking the water that was not my own.

Huang Jiajun saw him finish one bottle and said, "How are you doing? Are you okay? Do you want to drink another bottle?"

Li Gengrong got out of the car and took the water from Huang Jiajun. He was very thirsty now, but he didn't finish it this time.

No one from the army was standing guard at the gate, and instead they were guarding the gate at the entrance to the building.

Along the way, Huang Jiajun showed evidence and explained the reasons. Li Gengrong looked like he was dying, following behind like a ghost, and even had to walk for a while to rest because the journey was too long.

I walked to the military hospital building and checked again.

"Is that friend of yours dying? Do you have any medicine? If so, please take him to the infirmary for a checkup or give it to a doctor." The soldier on guard said after checking his ID.
