Chapter 109: The End of the World
Li Shanhe was naturally very excited to see his best friend's child again. He and Jiang Tao were not only high school classmates, but also good brothers who grew up wearing the same pants.
After graduating from high school, Li Shanhe joined the army and Jiang Tao was admitted to Kyoto University. The two did not lose contact and continued to exchange letters.
Time flies, and everyone has grown up, got married and had children. Li Shanhe even treats Jiang Zhi and Jiang Tian as his own children. He and his wife meet with the Jiang family during every festival.
Half a year ago, they received the sad news of their friend's death. The couple was heartbroken and had also heard about the turmoil in the Jiang family. However, Jiang Tao had just taken over a special mission assigned by the army and was unable to leave for the time being. When he finished dealing with the matters at hand and wanted to turn around to deal with the Jiang family's affairs, a natural disaster happened to break out, so he had to devote himself to the mission of fighting the flood on the front line.
It was originally thought that the flood would subside in a month at most, but no one had ever imagined that this rainstorm was just the beginning of the end of the world.
After the continuous heavy rains and flooding from the upstream cities, and the recent extremely hot weather, the entire Jiangcheng social system had already collapsed. Even the higher-ups had issued a red-headed document requiring the team to immediately evacuate the base and gather at point B after transferring the goods from the base's arsenal and nearby resource points. In addition, the subsequent network base stations were completely paralyzed, and Li Shanhe had no way to continue to contact the Jiang brothers and sisters.
When he heard his subordinates say that a young man who called himself Jiang Chi wanted to see him, and then learned about the visitor's appearance from his subordinates, Li Shanhe had a feeling in his heart that the man must be Jiang Chi.
Li Shanhe asked everyone to go upstairs, and the soldiers who had been wary of them also relaxed their expressions.
Hu Daquan and his group of more than a dozen people were temporarily arranged in a dormitory on the third floor. Li Shanhe took Jiang Chi and his sister to the command room. Gu Tongwan and the two dogs were able to go along thanks to Jiang Chi.
Li Shanhe was wearing camouflage uniform and looked rather elegant. His overall temperament did not seem like that of a soldier. Later, I heard that after joining the army, he started as a communications soldier and was later transferred to serve as a secretary to the leader. He has been doing administrative work for more than 20 years.
When Li Shanhe mentioned the natural disaster, he did not deny the "end of the world theory" that Jiang Tian asked about. It was obvious that he knew something.
In fact, at the beginning of the rainstorm in the previous life, the heads of state and senior officials of various countries had organized the world's top scientists to study and analyze the natural disaster, and they had long anticipated the coming of the end of the world. However, these were absolutely top-level secrets, and no information was allowed to be leaked under any circumstances. This is why when the natural disaster came, the government had already quietly transferred most of the supplies, but still announced to the outside world that it was just an ordinary typhoon and rainstorm.
Li Shanhe talked about the heavy rain, the extreme heat and the animal mutations. The wrinkles between his brows deepened with each mention.
"At present, China has the will but not the strength. Everyone is in danger. It is not enough to rely solely on the power of the army and the government, so..."
"Hehe, so just let ordinary people like us fend for ourselves. No wonder Liang Huanhuan posted on WeChat Moments during the rainstorm, saying that she and her father were going to Kyoto. I was wondering why they had to move just because it rained, but it turns out they had already received the news." Jiang Tian couldn't help but sneer, with resentment flashing in her eyes.
Liang Huanhuan was a celebrity in their high school, just because her father was the deputy mayor, so she probably knew at that time that this rainstorm was not an ordinary natural phenomenon.
The smile on Li Shanhe's face faded a little. He was busy with post-disaster work during this period. Although most cities had suffered unprecedented blows, the order he received was only to transfer supplies, but did not ask them to withdraw from Jiangcheng. This meant that perhaps Jiangcheng had not been abandoned yet.
Unfortunately, at Li Shanhe's level, the information he knew only stopped there. He had no right to touch any higher level secrets.
"Uncle Li, isn't there a resettlement site for disaster victims here?" Jiang Chi asked with a frown.
Li Shanhe sighed and shook his head: "You can see that here, there are no villages or residential areas nearby. When the rainstorm was the worst, we organized people to assist the victims. Basically, those who could be relocated were relocated to the rescue point of the Second Middle School. As for those who didn't want to leave..." Having said that, everyone understood why there was no special rescue center set up here.
"So how many troops are left here now?" Jiang Chi's body was a little more relaxed than before, and he leaned naturally on the sofa, but his eyes would occasionally unconsciously fall on Gu Tongwan beside him.
Jiang Tian curled her lips and sighed silently in her heart.
Well, we won’t get stuck, will we?
Li Shanhe took out a cigarette. It seemed that even in the end times, this thing was not rare to him. He lit it and started puffing out smoke, and his frown relaxed.
"There are still more than 400 people left in our military region. We cannot take any action until our superiors issue new orders."
Jiang Zhi crossed his fingers together. His fingers were long and slender with distinct joints and the fingertips were clear and moist. The light in his eyes sank. "Since the higher-ups asked you to stay, Uncle Li, there is only one possibility. Jiangcheng may be used as a base fortress in the future."
Looking up and seeing the shock in Li Shanhe's eyes, Jiang Chi said, "Some of the people who came with us earlier got wind that before the natural disaster, all parts of the country had already abandoned the Noah's Ark plan and switched to the 'Fortress of Light' plan, which is to build large bases across the country to resist natural disasters and become the last paradise for human survival after the end of the world."
Li Shanhe flicked his cigarette butt and nodded, "This is impossible. It's not just a natural disaster. The speed of animal changes during this period is beyond our understanding."
After saying that, Li Shanhe couldn't help but look at the two dogs that were dozing at the door?
If it was a dog, its size seemed abnormally large, but if it was a wolf, it didn't seem so docile.
Jiang Tian's eyes lit up, and she immediately interrupted, "Red-eyed rats and those giant cockroaches? And that disgusting giant salamander, are these animals mutated due to natural disasters?"
Li Shanhe exhaled a puff of smoke and said, "That's right, but it's not just these. There are also mosquitoes with paralyzing venom, wild cats that eat human flesh, and even Chihuahuas that are larger than giant dogs."
Hearing the word Chihuahua, Gu Tongwan couldn't help but feel a chill. He really couldn't imagine the small and delicate Chihuahua turning into a giant dog with a big head.
But now she was a little curious and couldn't help asking, "Do plants have a tendency to mutate?"
When Li Shanhe heard the girl's cold voice, he noticed Gu Tongwan who had been standing in the corner without saying a word. Although the girl was wearing a mask, her eyes were exceptionally beautiful. Her eyebrows were cold, but the slightly raised corners of her eyes looked like hooks.
Li Shanhe suppressed the differences in his heart and replied: "There have been no changes in plants so far, but the possibility of evolution in the future cannot be ruled out."
Gu Tongwan pursed his lips under the mask and said nothing more.
It seems that the mutation of plants is not obvious yet, so everyone's attention is more on animals. However, Gu Tongwan, who has already seen mutated animals, is more concerned about the plant mutation that has not appeared in the previous life.
Seeing that Li Shanhe and Jiang Chi had almost finished their conversation, Gu Tongwan spoke appropriately: "Jiang Chi, Jiang Tian, since you have found Chief of Staff Li, I am also ready to say goodbye to you."
