Reborn in the end of the world, I scavenged in the empty city and bought for free

At around 3:30 in the afternoon, Yan Fan followed the direction he remembered and found Gu Tongwan's home. It was still a two-story self-built house closest to the villa area.

He had come all the way under the most scorching sun in the summer afternoon. If he was not an ice-type mutant, his entire body would have been burned by now.

After knocking on the gate of the yard, I heard a series of "tapping" sounds coming from afar.

After opening the door, Gu Tongwan appeared, dressed in a white short-sleeved shirt and shorts. She had a well-proportioned figure, and the skin exposed was fair and delicate. She looked like someone's daughter who was carefully raised. He just didn't know why she lived in this building alone. He didn't see anyone else there that night.

Gu Tongwan's face was cold, actually it was because Yan Fan was late. Although she was not the kind of person who was very strict about time, she felt that if someone really wanted to come here to make money, he should at least be on time. It was just a matter of attitude.

However, when her eyes fell on Yan Fan's shirt, which had several holes and even traces of being dropped, she was a little surprised. Then she realized that Yan Fan, wearing a baseball cap, kept his head down.

Although Yan Fan is already seventeen years old this year, he is very thin and his height is almost the same as Gu Tongwan, who is 1.64 meters tall.

Gu Tongwan stretched out his hand and lifted his face. Yan Fan seemed to be startled and immediately took several steps back, revealing the scratches and bruises on his face.

"You...did you go to fight with someone?" Gu Sheng raised his eyebrows and looked at him leisurely.

Yan Fan kept her lips pursed, her hair covering her originally pretty eyes and eyebrows, which made her look even more stubborn and obstinate.

In fact, halfway through the journey, Yan Fan realized that someone was following him. He originally thought it was just a coincidence, but he didn't expect that after five or six hundred meters, those people were still following him closely, keeping a distance of twenty to thirty meters.

Psychics are always very sensitive to the breath of strangers, even the breath of external threats. After a while, he realized that there were three men following him, one of whom was a low-level psychic.

Those people saw Yan Fan was taking a detour around the business district for about half an hour, and finally walked to a shop and was unwilling to move anymore. They waited for about ten minutes, and finally couldn't stand the scorching heat anymore, so one of them rushed over because he had a bad temper.

"Fuck you, did you find out we were following you this morning? You're trying to trick us on purpose!"

The remaining two men saw their companions rushing out, so they quickly followed them, but they were very careful to avoid the sun and deliberately hid under the awnings of shops along the street.

The man who was cursing was actually an F-level metal-type mutant. He instantly produced a thin needle about five or six centimeters in his hand.

Yan Fan noticed that the man initially transformed by taking out a patch from his pocket.

Generally, only those with superpowers above level C can "create something out of nothing", that is, they can mobilize the superpowers in their bodies to transform into things with superpower attributes, such as water, fire or ice.

Other F-level or D-level psychics can generally only use external forces to activate their powers. For example, the man cannot currently create metal out of thin air, but he can change the shape of existing metal substances. If he is a water-type psychic, he needs to be close to a lake to use his power, and if he is a fire-type psychic, he needs a place with an open flame.

It is extremely rare for someone like Yan Fan, who is only a D-level parallel ability user but can use his supernatural powers to transform into materials with supernatural properties. This is one of the reasons why Brother Zhao and Yang Feng wanted to keep Yan Fan.

Yan Fan didn’t know how special his abilities were before. Later, after coming into contact with more people with special abilities, he gradually realized that he was different from others, and that his mental power recovered very quickly. Normally, it would take at least two or three days to recover after the mental power was exhausted, but Yan Fan only needed half a day to recover.

This is also one of the secrets he has been hiding from outsiders. If outsiders knew the peculiarities of his body, who knows if he would attract some extremists to send him for strange experiments.

When he was following Brother Zhao and the others before, he could only lie to them and say that his superpowers recovered faster because he was in the stage of breaking through the level of his superpowers.

Because each person's ability breakthrough level is different, some people may just have a fever, but some people may have a headache for several days. All kinds of situations are possible, and the official has not yet given an absolute conclusion.

Yan Fan fought with several people on the road for a while and was even injured, but fortunately he had rested for several days. In addition to expending some mental energy every day to maintain his body temperature and prevent himself from heatstroke, most of his supernatural powers were still stored in his body, which was enough to deal with these three people.

Looking at the several people lying on the ground unable to move, one of them had a bloody hole in his thigh caused by his own ice pick. The blood immediately turned into a dark red mark as soon as it dripped onto the ground. The whole process took less than half a second.

Yan Fan raised his head and wiped the hot sweat from his forehead with his elbow. The sky was cloudless at this time, but the azure blue sky was faintly shaking and distorted in his field of vision due to the high temperature.

It is said that the outdoor temperature today has exceeded 60 degrees. No wonder I felt the temperature rising from the soles of my feet to every part of my body as I walked along.

If those people on the ground cannot wake up in a short while, and are exposed to the sun for another ten minutes, they will faint or suffer from heatstroke due to severe dehydration. In serious cases, they will die directly from the exposure to the sun.

But Yan Fan had no intention of turning back to save people. If those people had not followed him this afternoon and had no intention of attacking him, how could he have ended up like this?

If they are lucky enough to run into the Self-Defense Forces patrolling here, perhaps these people can be saved. If they are unlucky and die here, then they deserve it.

Seeing Yan Fan keeping his eyelids drooped and not saying a word, one could vaguely see the flowing blue blood vessels on his delicate white skin.

"If you don't explain some things clearly, you will suffer in the future."

What Gu Tongwan hates most is to keep everything in his heart without saying it out loud, or to swallow all the grievances by himself, because he will always be the only one who is sad. It is better to speak out, even if the other party can't help, at least he can vent his inner frustration.

"Someone followed me on the road, and he might have been coming for you. I dealt with him." Yan Fan's voice was very soft, and seemed to contain some caution and resistance.

Gu Tongwan smiled and said, "I'm afraid they are not targeting me entirely. They targeted me because they saw me coming to work with you at noon today. They also want to know if I live alone. It can be said that their main purpose is to target me, and their secondary purpose is to teach you a lesson."

Seeing Yan Fan looking up in surprise, the playful smile on her face did not diminish, and she continued: "Don't think I know everything, I'm just guessing. If those people really came for me, you probably wouldn't be standing in front of me now."

The only family she has offended since coming here is the Zheng family. All the psychics in the Zheng family are high-level psychics. It is impossible for them to send only a few ordinary people who can't even take down Yan Fan to follow him. When considering what happened at noon today, it is easy to infer that this incident was caused by Yan Fan.

They stood outside the door for four or five minutes. Although Gu Tongwan came out with an umbrella, this so-called parasol could not block the sun above his head, and he began to sweat all over.

"Come in first, you are an ice-type psychic, you won't get heatstroke, but I can't stand this kind of weather."

Gu Tongwan deliberately did not turn on the air conditioner on the first floor, but only turned on two fans. At this time, the indoor temperature in the living room on the first floor of the house could still reach an astonishing 50 degrees in the afternoon, which is also the temperature felt by most people at noon.

Currently, the base is worried that outdoor work may easily cause heat stroke, so it has banned all units and enterprises from arranging people to work during the day. If necessary, it should be done after 7:30 as much as possible.

Despite this, there are still many people in the base who go to the labor market or post jobs looking for people to work outdoors during the day. Because the prices are so high, there are still some people who are willing to take the risk to do it.

In the past few days, more than a dozen people have suffered from heat stroke in the base.

Gu Tongwan turned around and went to the kitchen to get a glass of ice water and handed it to Yan Fan.

"Drink some water first, and I'll tell you where the air conditioner outdoor unit is installed later."

Yan Fan did not refuse. He was already thirsty on the way here. He was worried that he would encounter other situations later, so he did not use his supernatural power to conjure up ice cubes to quench his thirst. He did not drink a drop of water in the more than one hour journey.

After drinking the ice water in one breath, Yan Fan said "thank you" somewhat embarrassedly.

Gu Tongwan pointed to the second floor and said, "Let's go up."

Yan Fan had not yet reached the second floor, and when he saw her halfway up the stairs, he hurried to follow her.

The decoration of the second floor is similar to that of the first floor. It is not deliberately decorated very well. The walls are only covered with white putty and there is no ceiling. However, the furniture is complete and the placement of the furniture is also designed, so it looks very warm.

The living room on the second floor is completely different from that on the first floor. If the first floor is a furnace, the temperature on the second floor suddenly dropped by more than ten degrees, and there is a constant flow of wind coming in from a certain direction.

When I looked up, I found that there was a floor-standing air conditioner in the corner. The temperature displayed on it was 17 degrees, but the temperature in this living room should be around 37 or 38 degrees.

"I plan to put another air conditioner here, probably next to the TV cabinet in the east direction, so you can see where to install the air conditioner outdoor unit and whether the water pipe is long enough?"

Yan Fan glanced at the standing air conditioner next to the TV cabinet. Unlike the other one, this one was slightly smaller, but the style was very new and did not look like a second-hand item.

He walked to the balcony and took a look. The original air-conditioning outdoor unit was nailed to the outer wall of the second floor. There was even a solar energy storage panel placed on the balcony. There was another outdoor unit hanging on the outer wall on the left. That should be the air conditioner for the bedroom.

"Your unit is near the TV cabinet, so the air conditioner outdoor unit can be installed on the left wall of the balcony. The water pipe will take about three to four meters. Do you have the materials?"

When he was doing various chores at the base, the job he did most was installing air-conditioning outdoor units. Because this did not require much technical skills and he could basically learn it after following the master once, so it was a piece of cake for him.

Gu Tongwan pointed to a pile of water pipes and materials in the corner of the balcony. "Everything is here. See if it's enough. If not, I have more in the warehouse."

Fortunately, when she was in the empty city, it was not in vain that she drove out every day to search for resources, risking attacks by mutant beasts. These things were found in the abandoned home appliance city. Unfortunately, after the flood and acid rain, there were very few usable resources in the empty city. In addition, electrical products were the easiest to damage. At that time, she could not recycle many electrical appliances into the space, and later she spent a lot of space points to let the [Repair Robot] repair them.

However, robots with more than 75% damage cannot be restored to their original state. Therefore, the most common items in the space are repaired televisions, mobile phones, computers, etc. There are only four or five air conditioners left, so she tried every means to purchase more necessary household appliances at the base.

Yan Fan worked very hard, but he couldn't lift an air conditioner weighing hundreds of pounds by himself. Gu Tongwan went back to his room, changed into a tight suit, and put on a long-sleeved sweatshirt, and then said to him, "I'll work with you. You'll install it, but I can still help you. Otherwise, you can't do it alone."

Generally, two people are required to install the air conditioner outdoor unit. It is rare to see someone like Yan Fan who gritted his teeth and agreed to do it alone.

However, Yan Fan also had his own considerations. He knew that this woman was not simple, and if people knew that she might live alone, it would only increase the risk.

After installing the load-bearing hangers on the wall, Gu Tongwan and he placed the air conditioner outdoor unit, and then the next finishing work was done by Yan Fan himself.

Because I had to install two air-conditioning outdoor units at a time, it took me more than an hour to finish.

When Yan returned to the living room, the clothes on her body had been wet and dry, dry and wet again, and were covered with a layer of white crystals.

Gu Tongwan was sitting in the living room watching TV. She just took out a pot of cold tea from the refrigerator and ignored Yan Fan. There were two dogs lying beside her, both of them were leisurely and accompanying her obediently.

With a beep, as the air conditioner made a sound, another standing air conditioner in the living room was successfully turned on, and the temperature was adjusted to 18 degrees. After about six or seven minutes, Gu Tongwan could feel his body temperature suddenly drop.

Thirty-one degrees, it seems the two air conditioners are indeed useful.

She walked into the bedroom and turned on another air conditioner. After a few minutes, the temperature in the room finally dropped to 26 degrees, which was the most comfortable temperature in recent times.

"Is your points card still usable? Or do you want me to give you something else to redeem it?"
