Song Jin’s house is on the 23rd floor, and this building has 25 floors. The houses in the building are more than 100 square meters, but there are large and small houses.

I chose this place because it is convenient to do everything here, and the security of Zhongdu Building is also good. One elevator and one household will not be disturbed. On the other hand, it is also because the apartment structure here is better.

Song Jin’s side is transparent from north to south, with two south bedrooms and one north room. The living room is tall, spacious and bright. Although the dining room is similar to the living room, there is a small second floor that gives people a sense of separation.The kitchen can be opened and closed, and all facilities are complete.

Li Mo didn't care about space because they paid attention to space, so what to do with it? The previous owner also simply decorated it. There was only one south bedroom in that house, but the living room was as spacious as the living room, and all the furniture inside had been removed, making it look a bit empty.

The window of the living room here is only [-] centimeters from the ground. The windows are very large and full of sunlight. Especially at this time, no one can enter the room without hanging curtains. However, sufficient sunlight is also good. Putting some potted plants in the room will grow very well.

The bedroom is used by Song Jin as a drying room. There are some things in the space that need to be dried, such as dried peppers. If they can be directly dried by the sun, they can be spread on the curtain by the window. If they can’t be dried directly, they can be placed in the bedroom. The high light can't reach here, but because there are no curtains to cover it, the room is extremely dry, and the needed things can be dried quickly.

Li Mo made some rectangular pots out of wood, filled them with soil from the space, and planted common vegetables. The vegetable pots were placed on a steel frame with wheels for easy movement.

They originally took this as a cover-up, but they didn't want to add space soil, space water, and enough sunlight to make the vegetables grow well.Although the taste is slightly worse than the space, it is much better than the vegetables I have eaten before.The only trouble is that it has to be watered a lot every day.

The weather this year is even hotter than last year. The sun exploded with power from the very beginning. People dare not go out at will in early June.

Dry weather makes people easily dehydrated, and the water in the reservoir evaporates a lot, causing problems in the city's water supply. City A is already a water-scarce city. This summer has encountered a major crisis at the beginning of this summer. Heating equipment such as air conditioners and fans increased the pressure on power supply, and large areas of the city were cut off.

After the power outage, the solar generators of Song’s family can be used. In addition, their house has a central air conditioner and a high-performance battery, which can be used when connected. The house is very cool. Song Jin’s mother took a few children and lived there with John. , she and John can bear the child but not, the Li family also has a small solar generator, but they are also scared by the previous incident, and they will not use it unless necessary.When I have nothing to do during the day, I take the children to the Song's house. The left and right Song's house was prepared when it was first built, and there is nothing to see from the outside.

There is no air conditioner. Song Jin does not leave the space unless necessary. Li Mo came back from the outside today. There is a meeting in the community today to discuss watering the vegetables in the greenhouse. The vegetables in the greenhouse are not growing very well, but it is still a success, at least every month. Each person can share a catty of vegetables, but now because of the difficulty of water supply, the city seems to have to limit water, and there is also a limit on the water used in the greenhouses of the community. Normally, the water is still enough, but this weather is not good, and the vegetables have to dry out. No, so the community meeting hopes that each household will take a little of the water allocated by itself and use it to water vegetables.

"Is there any result?" Song Jin saw Li Mo enter the space and asked.

Li Mo shook his head, "No, according to the quota, the amount of water per person per day is enough to eat and drink. If there is more, it will be a problem. So many people disagree, and the water limit will start next week. , we have to go to the small square to fetch water, three liters of water per person per day."

Song Jin did the math, "Three liters is too little." Normal people have to drink about one and a half liters of water a day, not to mention that the weather is hot now, and three liters of water can't be used to drink.

"I can't help but hear that the water level in the reservoir has dropped to half. If there is no more restriction, it won't take long for you to drink water." Li Mo suddenly laughed after finishing speaking, "By the way, we will discuss the matter of donating water, but there is one thing Things can be settled, starting from tomorrow night, one person from each family will go downstairs to build a public toilet, and the public toilet in Zhongdu Apartment can be seen to the west of the small square. The problem of going to the toilet after water shortage must also be solved.”

Song Jin's expression collapsed, "It's not what I thought, is it?"

Li Mo nodded, "No way, public toilets can't be flushed with water, so we can only build those old-fashioned toilets. This is a document issued by the city. It seems that there are people who come here to collect feces, but our administrator suggests that the people in the community Take it out and use it to make fertilizer for the greenhouse."

Song Jin was a little disgusted, but he also knew in his heart that it was the best way to deal with water shortages, but it was a bit difficult to accept when he knew it.

"By the way, the house on the top floor made an appointment for us to go up later. They said they have something to discuss." Li Mo looked at his watch and saw that the time was almost up.

"Oh, what's the matter?" Song Jin asked.

"I didn't say it. You'll know when you go up."

When the two left the space, they felt hot all of a sudden. Song Jin didn't change his clothes, and went upstairs with Song Jin in dark blue shorts, white T-shirt and slippers.Now that there is a power outage, there is no elevator. Scissor-shaped stairs, go up to the single floor and go to the front, and go to the back on the double floor. They have to go to the front to go to the 25th floor.

After going out, they locked the door from the outside, and the two went upstairs. It was said that it was the first time they visited a neighbor's house after moving here for so long.

The upper door was open, and the two of them went in, and saw two people sitting in the room, a middle-aged man who looked like he was in his 40s and looked very elegant, but his temples were a little gray. This man was wearing linen pants and a white T-shirt. It's like learning, this room is completely decorated in Chinese style, and there are some antiques on the shelf next to the TV wall. This person should be the owner of this house.

The other is a young man in his 30s, with a pair of eyes and thick black eyebrows, similar to what Song Jin wears, shorts and a T-shirt.He should not be short, sitting on the sofa with two legs in a daze.

"Hi, let's get to know each other. My name is Gong Yu." The middle-aged man stood up and stretched out his hand and said with a smile, giving people a kind of close but reserved feeling. He shook hands with Li Mo first, and then with Song Jin shook hands, "I have met Xiao Li several times, but this is the first time I have met Xiao Song. We have been neighbors for several years."

Song Jin smiled gently, "I thought the 25th floor was unoccupied." His smile was similar to that of the teachers in the school.

"I'm a freelance contributor and I'm usually at home, so I can't meet you when I go out, haha." Gong Yu said with a smile, then turned around, "Let me introduce you, this is Zhang Zhao from the 24th floor, University of Science and Technology A top student who has been doing research in school before, and only recently came back."

Zhang Zhao stood up, pushed his glasses and nodded, without saying anything, looking a little shy.

"Come and sit." Gong Yu said, let a few people sit on the sofa, and went out to close the door by himself.

After I came back, I started to make tea in the hot water, "Come and taste the tea I made, water will be restricted next week, so it's not good to drink like this."

"Every family is storing water now, and Mr. Gong can also store more." Li Mo said.

"How much can I save? Water comes for an hour every day. The water flow upstairs is still small, so it's good enough to drink." Gong Yu shook his head. This black tea can be stored for a long time, and the taste will not change. Don't look at the heat of the tea. After drinking it, you will sweat a little, and you will be cooler. When the weather is hot, don't drink cold water, it will make you hotter."

Song Jin took a sip, and the taste was really unusual. He doesn't like to drink black tea and always thought it tasted weird, but this time it tasted fresh.

"I called you here today to discuss something. The three of us are the top three floors. At this time, although our top floor is inconvenient because there is no elevator, it is sometimes a kind of protection. Although it seems calm outside now, in fact But it is very dangerous. My friend told me that many residents have been robbed during this period, and some people even killed people. Although there was no report, the number of deaths is quite high. Our building looks safe, but there are also some security loopholes." Gong Yu said He frowned and frowned, "You may not know that a single woman in the doorway next to us was killed last night. It was only discovered in the morning. I was afraid of causing panic, so I dealt with it quietly. People were also caught. They moved in later. It was done by one person. The police found out that this person has a lot of criminal records."

Gong Yu shook his head, "This story hasn't spread yet, but sooner or later, our building is not so safe. If someone inside contacts the outside, there is no electricity now, and the door is open. It is very dangerous."

"My wife and I are the only ones at home. If something happens, there is no way to resist. I already knew about Xiao Zhang's situation. He is also alone. I found out that Xiao Song and Xiao Li live together. The three of us on the top floor are like this. A few people, I just thought that if the three of us are united, if something happens, we can take care of it."

After Gong Yu finished speaking, he looked at several people, mainly at Li Mo and Song Jin. Zhang Zhao should have been persuaded by him long ago.

Li Mo thought for a while and said, "Uncle Gong, it's okay for us to form an alliance and help each other, but the two of you are connected by the opposite door, should you look for them." Momo could even put another gate between their stairs.

Gong Yu smiled wryly after hearing this, "Do you think I don't want to, but not everyone can join forces. The family opposite my house is a family of three, a 36-year-old couple with a ten-year-old child, I don't mean others Not good, but the dried vegetables placed in the back door of my house were thrown away one after another, and the fire doors were all closed. I was afraid of wronging people and deliberately put the altar of pickles, but they took the pickles. They still pretended that I didn’t know.”

Gong Yu was very helpless, "I don't care about that little thing. If there is something missing in the neighborhood, it's okay to help, but they shouldn't do it secretly and cover it up. I'm not stupid and I don't know if I lost it or not." gone."

Song Jin and Li Mo frowned when they heard this, the neighbors were afraid of this kind of thing, although it was just a small advantage, but it was not good, it was a bad character.

Gong Yu also said, "As for Xiao Zhang, there is an old lady who lives across the door. She doesn't go out except when receiving food. I went to look for it twice, but she didn't make a sound. She didn't seem to want to get in touch with people."

"Just an old lady, is there no one else in her family?" Song Jin asked strangely.

"Well, it's just one person. I asked the property owner. It turns out that there are still sons and daughter-in-law, but her son and daughter-in-law were the first to be infected with the virus. They died in the hospital. The old lady is left at home. It may be stimulated. , I haven’t gone out much since last year, and I don’t talk to anyone with a cold face when I go out. Two days ago, the management meeting came to register, and she opened the door, but I don’t know why I got into an argument with them. It’s been two days I haven't left the house yet."

"Don't worry about it." Song Jin thought that the old lady would live alone, and if something happened, no one would know.

"It's okay, Xiao Zhang is also afraid that something will happen to her, so I heard a few times from the back door, and there is movement in the house." Gong Yu said.

Song Jin glanced at Zhang Zhao, Zhang Zhao was silent and warm-hearted.

"Since this is the case, Uncle Gong, the three of us will take care of each other. Where do I have a walkie-talkie, I will send it to you later. In case something happens, I can contact you quickly. But Uncle Gong, your door cannot be easily opened in the future. There is also a back door, since the character on the other side is not very good, you should take some precautions."

"Well, I know that the door is usually not open, but I opened it when you came up today." Gong Yu smiled, "I have another thing, now there is a solar generator in the city, that solar generator Our house is on the top floor, and there is a door on the other side of the stairs, which can pass through it. If the generator is placed on it, it will be enough for the three of us. Xiao Zhang knows this, he is an engineering major, and he said he can Install it, and get a few high-power batteries at that time, and we will have electricity."

Li Mo had an interested expression on his face when he heard it, "I've heard about it too, but it's not easy to buy. I've inquired about it and there's no place to buy it." In fact, there is one in the space, but the solar panel is too big.There is nowhere to put it downstairs.He had thought about getting to the top floor, but after all, it was not easy to get it across several floors, and it was prone to accidents.

"I have a friend who told me that he can get it, and the price is not cheap. I thought that if the three of us buy together, we can get a big one. Then the power generation will be stable and the service life will be long. I heard that this time The quality of the product is very good, but it is made to face the harsh environment. It is still a test product.”

Li Mo nodded, "Then buy together." Now the purchasing power of money is not as good as before, and it is very lucky to be able to buy it.

Coming down from upstairs, Song Jin and Li Mo did some research, and the alliance with the two upstairs did not do them any harm. Now the situation is complicated, except for the lower three floors because there is no one in the shopping mall, this building originally consisted of 44 households. It's not complicated, but since we moved into a few households, Song Jin heard quarrels from time to time, and someone died in the building next door. I'm afraid people's hearts will change. If there is something wrong with the cooperation upstairs There is a helper.

After the three parties discussed it, the solar generator battery pack was delivered on the third day. In order to prevent people from discovering, all the delivered items were placed in boxes. It is impossible to see what it is from the outside. The installation is 24-story Zhang Zhao made.

Gong Yu is also capable. I don’t know where he got the key to the top floor. When he opened the top floor, he saw a vast platform. Several people installed the things together under Zhang Zhao’s command. Zhang Zhao also changed the keys of the three houses downstairs. The power line connects the upper battery to the lower three, and a gate is set up, which can be switched at will.

The power of this generator is very large, and now the sun is shining so brightly, it is enough for three families to use. However, in order to prevent others from finding out, they moved the air conditioner to the top floor to prevent the humming of the air conditioner from being heard. When using electricity at night Thick curtains should also be hung, otherwise it would be pitch black everywhere. They are shining brightly here, which will make people jealous, and people's hearts are the most terrifying.

After several murders due to resources occurred in the city, Song Jin and the others didn't dare to be special at all.Be careful when doing things.
