Chapter 140 The day after tomorrow
Su Li was sitting in the car and was driving towards the library in the heavy rain. There were two large suitcases in the back seat of the car, which contained a few warm clothes, a set of polar equipment, some photos of the original owner and her parents, and finally The rest are commonly used medicines and enough food.
She is fleeing.
It has been raining in New York for three consecutive days, and the house she lives in is a small villa common in the United States.The accumulated water caused by the heavy rain for three consecutive days has flooded the house.Moreover, she could feel that the weather was getting colder and colder, and the little birds that used to like to build their nests on the big tree in front of her house were all gone.
Countless movies and TV shows tell people that once there is a large-scale animal migration, there will be disasters.What you should do at this time is to follow in the footsteps of the animals!
But it was too late when she came...
The original owner's parents are well-known scientists in the country, and the entire scientific expedition team lost contact a few days ago.After the original owner learned about the current weather conditions from his parents' colleagues, he fainted from fright, and the back of his head just hit the corner of the table.
Then, the original owner left, and Su Li came.
When she woke up, she learned from the memory of the original owner that all the birds had migrated abnormally south four days ago!
Su Li drove the car, watching helplessly as the water beside the car got higher and higher, until she was blocked on the road and was in a dilemma.She opened the car door decisively, put the keys in the bag, and then walked towards the library in the knee-deep water with the bag on her back and two suitcases of the largest size.This is the place she can think of, the closest to her and the place with the highest safety index.
Although the high-rise residential apartment has avoided the danger of being submerged, she has no way to enter the room at all.What's the difference between this and being outside?But the library is different, there are books, wooden tables, and vending machines in it!Moreover, the library is in the middle of several high-rise buildings, and the wind shelter effect is very good!
When she walked to the library, there were piles of stalled taxis, and many people shuttled through the water with umbrellas that were blown by the wind.Moreover, the water has reached her thighs.The two large suitcases added a lot of resistance to her, but in order to deceive others, she could only do so!
She recklessly grabbed the handle of a suitcase and ran into the library.But she didn't stop, but ran up the stairs non-stop, until she ran to the corridor above the public reading room on the second floor, and then she sat down on the suitcase and gasped!
Leaning her back against the wall, she watched the crowd who kept running in.Now people's expressions are just nervous and worried, but soon, as a new group of people ran into the library, everyone's expressions changed——
The flood is coming!
Everyone rushed to the second floor in a swarm, screaming non-stop.Su Li sat on the suitcase without moving.This world completely suppressed her magic, she couldn't feel the existence of magic in her body at all!
This is nature's counterattack to the continuous oppression of human beings for thousands of years!
Su Li is already used to using magic. Whenever she comes to a world, the first thing she does is to let magic form a cycle in her body.This will give her a great sense of security in a strange world.But here, no, not at all!This shows that in this world, she has lost the ability to use magic.
Hope it's just this world!
However, there was no magic to make her restless. Fortunately, the space can be used normally, and even luckier, there is enough food in the space to support her through this world.
Even more thankfully, it's just a change of weather right now.If earthquakes are added, then there will be no way for people to survive.
Thinking about it this way, Mother Nature is still very kind-a ghost!
Lack of clothing and food in the ice and snow is enough to make people unable to survive, okay?
The temperature was dropping rapidly, and she followed the crowd to change out of her soaked clothes.Fortunately, the library has more than enough clothes.
"Wow, woof, woof, woof!" In the silence, a dog barked suddenly.
At first, everyone looked over with some dissatisfaction. Under such circumstances, hearing a stray dog barking non-stop would make everyone angry.
But soon, people forgot to be angry, and followed the dog's owner, the homeless man, to look out of the window - a ship slowly drifted through the flood in the street.And the heavy rain in the sky also unknowingly turned into an even more chilling snow.
"Follow me!" Just as everyone ran to the railing on the second floor to look out, a boy suddenly shouted, ran back with a few friends, and ran out from the other direction.
Su Li instinctively followed behind, seeing the scene outside from the railing——
The flood that was still flowing slowly became slower and slower, and the flood near the building had even frozen.With a thick scarf wrapped around her head, Su Li poked her head for a glance, then quickly put her head back, looked at the four people in front of her and asked, "Let's go back, it's too cold here..."
They were startled by her sudden utterance, and turned around to look at her in unison.A very pretty girl asked, "Are you?"
"Cathy Brown, senior."
"I'm Laura, this is Sam, this is Brian, and he is JD." Laura introduced her little friend, and they walked to the public reading room on the second floor together.
Su Li walked to her two big boxes and took out a box of chocolates, and distributed them to the four new friends.In this dreadful cold snap, the chocolate pattern is a nice treat.
"Are you going to the station too?" Sam asked, looking at her two large suitcases and a bulging hiking bag.
Su Li shook her head, her expression became serious: "No, I packed my things and ran to the public library."
When Sam heard this, he reacted quickly, and quickly asked, "What do you mean?"
"My parents, who are scientists, work for the country. Just a few days ago, their entire scientific expedition team lost contact. My father's colleagues called me to tell me that there will be a terrible snowstorm in the next few weeks. Coming. And, when I called him just before I left, he told me that Europe was already covered under 15 feet, no, maybe even thicker now. I thought about it and looked for the nearest public library to me."
"Basically what my dad said!" Sam's father, Jack, a meteorologist, had just spoken to him on the phone for the last time: "My dad told me, never go out, you'll freeze to death! "
But when the blizzard came and the flood was frozen into hard ice, most people insisted on getting out and going south to find a way out.No matter what Sam said, those people finally decided to go out.
In the end, only the four of Sam, Su Li, the three staff members of the library, and the homeless man with a dog were left in the entire library.
Led by the oldest staff member, several people came to the only small reading room with a fireplace in the entire library.
She sighed and said, "This must have been unused for more than 100 years."
Sam walked over to take a look, opened the smoke gate, and a large handful of dust fell down.He stood up, picked up the book on the table and threw it in.
This is unbearable for librarians who love knowledge and books, but in the face of life, these things become insignificant again.
Su Li glanced at the people who kept moving books, then looked at the huge number of chairs in the public reading room, and asked her own question: "Why don't we burn the chairs?"
A few people who kept moving books paused, and Brian and the male librarian, who already liked books, stopped moving books in their hands and started smashing wooden chairs.But the books have to be moved, who knows how long this storm will last and how bad it will be.These preparations are very necessary!
It wasn't until night that they kept moving fuel to the reading room.Of course, it will continue tomorrow.
Su Li placed two soft sofas facing each other, put two chairs in the middle, and spread the blanket she found from the cloakroom on top.Then he put on all the thick clothes in his suitcase, took out the blanket and overcoat, covered his body and lay down on the bed he built to breathe a sigh of relief...
She and the oldest lady were placed nearest the fireplace.But this blizzard obviously exceeded human imagination. Even by the fireplace, several people were still wrapped up thickly and trembling constantly.
Su Li casually took out a book from the pile of books stacked in front of the fireplace—"Mother Goose Fairy Tales Collection"...
The corner of her mouth twitched, and she threw the dreadful book into the fireplace.Now this situation is already enough to make people despair, and after reading this book, Su Li can't help but grow darkness in her heart and destroy the world!
Although the world is almost destroyed now...
Brian has been trying to know some outside news with his modified radio.But the news that Su Li got was already known.
She looked at the flames burning in the fireplace, turned over, closed her eyes and tried to let herself fall asleep.There are still many things to do tomorrow, and in this cold age, she is always very uneasy if she doesn't fill herself with firewood.
When Zao woke up the next morning, the snowstorm was much bigger than the day before.Without going to the window, she couldn't see the words on the book in her hand at all, and the visibility was also very low, and the wind and snow were raging outside.
Su Li threw the blanket she was wearing on the sofa where she was sleeping, and after eating half a piece of compressed biscuit, she went to the public reading room to dismantle the chairs.If you are tired of dismantling, put the books on the bookshelf on the trolley.By the time the others woke up, she had dismantled more than a dozen chairs by herself, and she had piled up several carts.
Sam stopped her from tearing down the chairs: "We just put the chairs up, you will consume a lot of energy, and we don't have enough food to support it."
Su Li was embarrassed and found out about this problem.Because besides jewelry, the most piled up food in her space is the delicious food from all over the world.Therefore, she never thought about the need to save energy.
Several people moved all the chairs in the reading room into the room with the fireplace and piled them up in a row along the windows.And all the books they could find were piled up in the room.
The weather is getting cold……
The author has something to say:
The day after tomorrow is the first film about the doomsday that I have watched. At that time, I only remembered some good-looking little brothers who kept burning books 233333
