After the heavy rain continued for twelve hours, the water on the road in the community continued to flow into the parking lot.

It rained from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. and there was no sign of the rain abating. The TV news was reporting related news. The super typhoon that hit Jiangcheng this time was called "Butterfly". It made landfall in Ancheng, a neighboring province, at around 10 a.m. and was accompanied by strong winds of levels 8 to 9. Citizens were advised to avoid going out during the rainstorm. The rainstorm was expected to last for two days and the rain would gradually weaken on the third day. All major units should prepare drainage measures.

During this time, Jiang Chi knocked on her door and brought a box of 4J cherries, saying that he was grateful for taking care of Jiang Tian when he was not at home in the morning.

Jiang Tian from the opposite side poked her head out and smiled sweetly, probably telling her brother everything that happened in the morning.

Gu Tongwan did not refuse, but just smiled and said, "It's nothing, not only to help Jiang Tian, ​​but also for myself." Even if Jiang Tian was not there, Liu Cheng would most likely instigate his uncle to deal with him.

Jiang Chi did not ask about the details of the situation. He finally smiled these days, and his eyes were no longer filled with vigilance and indifference as before.

Gu Tongwan had spicy hot pot in the evening, which she made herself simply. First, heat the oil and add half a packet of hot pot base and ginger and garlic. After sautéing all the ingredients, add clean water. When the water boils, add various meatballs, potato slices and taro cubes. After about three minutes, add the meat slices and vegetables, stir them slightly, and finally add some milk, sugar and soy sauce for seasoning, and drizzle with a few drops of sesame oil. The simple spicy hot pot is ready for the night.

The air conditioner in the house has been turned off. The generator has also been put into the room. The continuous heavy rain for more than ten hours has gradually lowered the temperature. The indoor temperature has now dropped to 26 or 27 degrees, which is a very suitable temperature.

It is so pleasant to sit in the living room, eating spicy hot pot and listening to the sound of rain outside.

The thickened explosion-proof glass windows on the balcony are of good quality. Even a level 7 gale did not cause the glass to burst, but the rain hitting it made a "bang bang" sound.

There were screams coming from downstairs earlier. It seemed that rain was blowing into the room from the balcony because there was no anti-theft window installed. The male owner had to close the balcony door. Even though there was a drain on the balcony, the rain was too heavy and about ten centimeters of rainwater still accumulated on the balcony. The male owner had to come out every once in a while to sweep all the water to the drain.

There was no power cut all night tonight, probably because household electricity consumption gradually decreased after the rain and the temperature dropped, and the power plant resumed power supply to some communities.

However, the property management said later that there would be further power restrictions, with power supply lasting only about six hours a day.

After dinner, Gu Tongwan practiced boxing in the hall and exercised for an hour before taking a shower.

After changing clothes, he stood in the bathroom, looking at the water pipe connected to the toilet. An idea suddenly came to his mind, and he took out half a bag of cement from the space and placed it on the living room outside.

If the rain continues for several months, the water pipes will be blocked and backflow will occur. The sewage cannot be discharged and there is a risk of backflow. So she plans to use cement to block the bathroom pipes and squat toilets in the bedroom and living room as soon as the water is cut off.

Day 3 of the End of the World

The rain did not subside on the third day as the Meteorological Bureau had predicted. There was still a howling wind outside, and several royal palm trees had been completely broken in half by a force 9 gale.

Many cars underneath have also gradually shifted, and it is said that water has started to enter the garage on the underground floor. The property management is currently trying to find a way to drain the water.

People who were unable to go out due to the heavy rain began to frantically stock up on goods at the store on the second floor.

In fact, everyone's home is not short of food. After all, a normal family can last for a period of time. In addition, the high temperature weather has lasted for nearly two weeks, and many people have stockpiled a lot of food at home. It's just that most people are easily affected by the mood of panic buying. Once this phenomenon occurs, some people will feel that they will suffer if they don't stockpile supplies. Therefore, out of the idea of ​​not wanting to suffer losses, if you stockpile, I will stockpile too. If you stockpile ten kilograms of rice, then I will stockpile twenty kilograms. The result will only cause a temporary shortage of materials and higher prices.

The items currently cleared out in the convenience store are instant noodles, self-heating hot pots, and fast food products such as luncheon meat. Snacks and drinks have also been cleared out by many young people.

Jiang Tian came knocking on the door, holding three or four boxes of self-heating rice in her hands, her eyes curved like the moon.

"Sister Gu, I'll get you some food."

Gu Tongwan sighed and shook his head, "Keep it for yourself, I have some noodles at home."

No reward without merit. Although she liked this girl very much, she always felt that Jiang Tian was a little clingy. Without knowing her inside out, Gu Tongwan did not want to establish an overly close relationship with other people.

Jiang Tian was not hit at all, instead, she became more and more courageous, and continued: "It's okay, take these, I bought these downstairs a few days before the rainstorm, and I also bought several boxes online before, which is enough for me to make whatever I want."

Gu Tongwan held his forehead with his hand, and said helplessly: "Jiang Tian, ​​you really are..."

Jiang Tian blinked her big eyes, waiting curiously for the next sentence, and before she could say anything, she smiled and said, "Is it Tianmei Bentian?"

It's a silly and sweet thing...

This means you have to confess all the things you have hoarded. If someone with bad intentions gets to know about this, it will only cause trouble.

Gu Tongwan thought that she had helped her once two years ago, and she didn't go out of her way to protect her yesterday. This little girl really didn't treat her as an outsider. She told her everything about her home. With such a simple and innocent personality, she was very worried about how the little girl would survive in the end times.

"Take it back first. When I want to eat it, I'll ask you for two more boxes. Is that okay with you?" Gu Tongwan said.

Jiang Tian felt a little disappointed when she failed to feed the baby, but she soon smiled again: "Okay, Sister Gu, if you don't have anything to eat, please come to me. I will feed you, hehe." After saying that, she went back to the house opposite.

Just as Jiang Tian closed the door, Jiang Chi came back in the elevator. This boy, who was two years younger than her, was holding five or six plastic buckets in his hands, which he probably just bought from the convenience store downstairs.

There was a flash of surprise in Gu Tongwan's eyes. He didn't expect that this boy was so cautious. Did he guess so quickly that the water would be cut off after the continuous heavy rain?
