Chapter 532 Food spoilage, water pollution
At this moment, a woman's frightened voice suddenly came from the kitchen: "Husband, come here quickly!"
"What's wrong?" A male voice came from behind the camera, followed by a slight panting sound, and the camera gradually approached the kitchen.
Soon, a pale-faced young woman who looked to be about 27 or 28 years old appeared in the video.
"Look, all this rice..." The woman pointed into the bag with trembling hands, her eyes full of anxiety.
The next second, a man's arm stretched out from the side. He grabbed one side of the rice bag and slowly pushed the camera lens of his mobile phone forward.
So everyone in front of the video saw that the originally white rice was covered with dense black bacterial spots, which looked very creepy.
"This...what's going on?" The man's tone was a little panicked.
The couple then began to search the kitchen and found that all the opened food and seasonings had grown such black spots.
The video ends here, but the people outside can't sit still.
Everyone rushed to the kitchen to check on their precious food, only to discover the same problem - their food was inedible!
People on the Internet were howling in despair, and some even chose to end their lives because they could not bear such pressure.
Everywhere people were drying their spoiled food.
[Why? All the food has been destroyed by the poisonous fog, and the food outside has also withered. How can we survive? ]
[Maybe they are right, this really is a punishment! ]
There are countless discouraging words like this.
And another thing that happened at this moment was like the last straw that broke the camel's back.
At first, Xiao Jin was going to knead the dough to make some steamed buns. She had a dough mixer in her space. The dough mixer would be responsible for kneading the dough, and Xiao Jin would just steam the buns.
It’s easy to make, tastes good, and doesn’t have a strong smell.
Unexpectedly, just when Xiao Jin put the flour into the dough mixer and was about to add some water to knead the dough.
The clear water that should have been gushing out from the faucet turned into a gray-brown liquid.
Fortunately, Xiao Jin did not use the basin to catch the flour directly, otherwise all her flour would have been wasted.
The water in the basin was turbid and had an indescribable odor.
Xiao Jin immediately put down the basin and turned the faucet to the maximum. After running it for about a minute, the water became more and more turbid.
"This is bad. The water is unusable." Xiao Jin turned the faucet with a serious expression.
Then she used tape and plastic to block all the water outlets. The toilet is temporarily unusable. Although it can flush, who knows if the water will carry the virus.
So the best way is to seal the toilet as well.
As for how to go to the toilet afterwards?
"Alas~" Xiao Jin sighed deeply: "Let's just use cat litter!"
The water issue was not a small matter and soon someone noticed it.
Like spoiled food, word spread quickly among the crowd.
[Hehe, I can’t even drink water. Good, that’s great!]
This man is obviously mentally ill.
【I…%￥）%&*@￥*……】
There are also those who completely break down and start cursing without caring about anything else on the Internet.
Curse God, curse the government, curse the dogs on the street, and even curse yourself.
Soon, the country also issued an emergency notice:
【Attention, citizens. Testing has shown that the water source contains the same toxins as the fog outside. The water source is currently contaminated. Please do not drink it.
In addition, non-vacuum-packed food is very easy to be contaminated, so please give priority to eating sealed food! And once the package is opened, be sure to finish it as soon as possible to prevent it from being corroded by the toxic mist in the air. 】
Seeing this afterthought notice, netizens were completely furious. Mainly because they were angry. Do I need you to say it? I would scold even the government departments.
You're still eating vacuum-packed food? I don't even have any spoiled food left. Eat? Eat shit!
Then there is water resources!
It’s okay not to eat, but not drinking water will lead to death.
All water resources are polluted, so they might as well find a river to jump into. At least they can drink enough water before they die.
In the end, the government workers were so exhausted from the scolding that they simply closed the comment section below.
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Jin looked up at the gray sky outside the window, feeling mixed emotions.
The dough mixer was still running, and two large steamers on the stove were humming with steam. The sweet aroma of flour gradually filled the house.
She is a human, not a god. Xiao Jin does not have such a strong desire to save the world. She just wants to live a good life.
Putting the things on the Internet behind for the time being, Xiao Jin was busy all day and steamed forty pots of steamed buns.
There are about twenty or so buns in a pot, and hundreds of steamed buns are neatly stacked in an insulated box, which is then placed in the space.
Although Xiao Jin was a little tired, he felt very satisfied in his heart.
………………
After a busy day, even Xiao Jin felt a little tired, so she fell asleep early at night.
At 8 o'clock the next morning, Xiao Jin was awakened by a burst of noisy noises.
The sun is really coming out in the west.
Ever since the gray fog began to appear, Xiao Jin hadn't heard many people talking around him.
Maybe something happened again!
Xiao Jin lazily stretched his arm out from under the quilt and picked up the phone next to the pillow. As soon as he opened it, he found a series of small red x's in the upper right corner.
On the 14th day after the poisonous fog descended, communications were interrupted, signals disappeared, and electricity was cut off.
"It's a little later than expected." After learning the reason for the noisy noise around, Xiao Jin was not surprised at all.
She murmured to herself, her tone full of understanding.
According to her idea, the communication should have been unusable as early as the first week, but she didn't expect it to last another week.
People in modern society have long been accustomed to the convenient life brought by electricity.
Therefore, after the food and water resources that provided them with necessities began to deteriorate one after another, the things that supported their spiritual life also disappeared.
Under the double blow, some unrest is inevitable.
The signal was interrupted at two in the morning, which is when night owls are most active.
Suddenly, their mobile phone interfaces blurred at the same time - the network connection has been interrupted, please check your mobile network.
