In a room in the shelter.

Lin Ling stood behind the door, looking at the little girl lying on the bed in the room, and spoke to her carefully.

Lin Ling was afraid that she would shout and attract the patrol team outside.

Having stayed in a shelter in her previous life, Lin Ling knew that the patrol team had high authority.

As the saying goes: In times of chaos, severe punishments should be used.

If the patrol team caught someone behaving inappropriately, the person would be forced to do hard labor at best, or shot on the spot at worst.

......

Lin Ling could only pretend to be lost and ask the little girl for directions, trying to get away with it.

After hearing what Lin Ling said, the little girl blinked and said:

"Sister, it turns out you just took the wrong path. You are not the fairy who came to give me a gift~ Tomorrow is my birthday~"

Listening to this childish voice, Lin Ling just thought that she was so cute.

But the next moment, Lin Ling saw a smug smile in the little girl's eyes.

Lin Ling also laughed. She was a cunning girl and knew everything.

Lin Ling said: "Well, sister came to give you a gift, but she took the wrong road."

After saying that, Lin Ling reached into the backpack behind her.

The next moment, a capsule toy blind box from the mall appeared in Lin Ling's hand.

"Here, this is a gift for you. I don't know what's inside, so you need to open it yourself to see it."

The little girl's eyes turned into two crescents. She quickly got up from the bed and stood in front of Lin Ling.

Only then did Lin Ling notice that the cotton socks on the little girl's feet were actually patched.

However, since people live densely in this kind of tube-shaped building and there are braziers for heating, the house is not too cold.

Although there is a patch on the cotton socks, you won't get frostbite.

The little girl took the gift from Lin Ling and turned it over and over again, unable to let it go.

But soon, she seemed to realize something, and quickly moved a small stool out from under the bed and placed it in front of Lin Ling.

"Sister, sit down."

"We are on the 27th floor of the South Building. Don't go the wrong way again, sister."

Lin Ling sat down with a smile.

......

Lin Ling did not delve into whether the girl's birthday was really tomorrow, but instead used a small gift to get closer to the girl.

Who wouldn’t like such a cute and smart little girl?

Lin Ling learned from the little girl that in the months after the snowstorm, they lost their father and their mother had to go out to work every day to support them.

Lin Ling has already seen how difficult their lives are, but there is nothing she can do to help them much.

Knowing that the girl's mother would be off work in half an hour, Lin Ling hurried to take out some water and compressed biscuits from her backpack.

After sharing some with the little girl, the two of them started eating together.

Lin Ling had to leave before the adults came back to avoid any unnecessary trouble.

Before leaving, Lin Ling left behind a can of milk powder and two packs of compressed biscuits.

Because Lin Ling noticed that the child in the stroller was sleeping.

Even though Lin Ling and the other person were talking, the baby did not wake up and looked a little malnourished.

"These things are gifts from your sister. You can only tell your mother and not anyone else~"

The girl nodded. "I understand, sister. Don't get lost again~"

Uh, Lin Ling felt a little dizzy, and then left the room.

At this time, there were people coming and going on the road outside, which was convenient for Lin Ling's actions.

When walking on the road to the shelter, surrounded by people, Lin Ling breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Ling accidentally entered a room with children and was a little at a loss as she had not been in contact with such children for a long time.

Fortunately, Lin Ling achieved her purpose of resting and eating.

......

Lin Ling walked against the flow of people towards the east for a long time.

After passing through several factories, Lin Ling finally followed the flow of the crowd and walked eastward.

At this time, Lin Ling, wearing a snow hat, a scarf covering her face, carrying a small bag, lowered her head and slowly moved forward.

Except that her clothes were cleaner than those of others, Lin Ling almost blended in with the crowd in the shelter.

Because Lin Ling was once one of these people! Naturally, she knew the status of these people very well.

Every day, I drag my tired body home from get off work, go to the canteen to get food, eat, and then return to the pigeon cage to rest.

The next day, go back to work, and the cycle continues.

......

It wasn't like this in the shelter at the beginning.

At that time, everyone here had food to eat, regardless of whether they could work or not. As long as they arrived at the cafeteria, they would be provided with free meals.

But then, as the months went by, as the food was consumed, the stock in the shelter became less and less.

However, the supplies produced are pitifully few. A small number of greenhouses can barely produce some vegetables, which are far from enough to supply such a large population.

They can only use manual labor to transform those former industrial products and piece together snowmobiles, cotton-padded clothes, and thermal materials that can move in the snow.

So, now, only those who work have a portion of food, which they can take away and share with their families at home.

Although an extra bowl of rice was added to each meal, malnutrition had gradually spread throughout the shelter.

Lin Ling integrated into this kind of crowd—a crowd that was dejected, sallow, thin, and listless.

Lin Ling is powerless to change this doomsday. This is the end of the world, and no human power can stop it.

......

What Lin Ling is going to find now is the place where Zhang Peng has been. There, Lin Ling can find Xu Shao's men.

Only from them could Lin Ling find where Xu Shao was.

As for Zhang Peng, he had only seen Xu Shao once when they were outside the shelter at the beginning of the snowstorm.

After that, he was of no further use to me in the shelter.

Naturally, there was no chance to see Xu Shao again, and I didn't know where Xu Shao lived in the shelter.

Therefore, Lin Ling could only use the stupid method. Based on this only clue, first catch Xu Shao's men and then find Xu Shao's whereabouts!

As for those people who attacked Lin Ling in the community yesterday, Lin Ling was not sure that she could capture them alive while ensuring her own safety.

......

Lin Ling also knew that according to convention, the residences of such powerful people were naturally separate from those of ordinary people.

They have better treatment and certainly don't live in crowded pigeon cages like ordinary people!

Unfortunately, in her previous life, Lin Ling was just drifting in a pigeon cage in the shelter.

Therefore, Lin Ling only knew some common sense in the shelter and did not know where the residences of those upper-class people were.

Lin Ling walked in the crowd, first heading east and then turning north. Sometimes she followed the flow of the crowd, sometimes she went against the flow, and she inevitably stumbled.
