Bonus Chapter
Chu Huai made guesses and estimates about the current situation outside based on his past life memories and what had been broadcasted by the news.
In addition to that, Yuan Haolin has a hacker for a lover who can hack into the private networks of various countries, so they have a much clearer and more direct understanding of the actual situation than him.
The spread of the virus is much faster than what the news reported. No matter how isolated people in the city are, it is impossible to stay away from home for more than a few months. Normally going out to buy food and stuff is already an opportunity to be infected.
Since the virus began to spread from K country, none of the surrounding Eastern European countries survived large-scale infections, especially the few that have the deepest contact with the K country. The upper-level important leaders have all suffered, and the country’s order has begun to collapse.
The Asian side is much better because the Chinese government’s previous policy of controlling the flow of tourists has reduced the spread of pathogens in the country. As soon as the virus appeared, the entrances were immediately blocked.
The other countries that had good relations with China have also been fortunate enough to control the spread of the virus because they have followed the development of China.
But despite this, the situation is still not optimistic.
The number of infected people in various countries is increasing exponentially every day, hospitals are full, and countless industries have stopped due to the collapse of their employees.
A small virus is destroying humanity with a powerful force.
“Country K has been completely messed up. Most of the people in their country have been infected. The first group of people infected seems to have mutated. This is a photo taken by government satellites of the town that was first infected in country K…”
Yuan Haolin unobtrusively took out the internal information in his hand to share.
Chu Huai’s eyes fell on the photo, and his breathing instantly stagnated.
These infected people in Country K are no longer as weak as ordinary patients lying in hospital beds. They have recovered their strength, but their condition has become even worse.
White and pale complexion, blood-red eyes, purple eyes and lips.
Although the look in their eyes still maintains some of the rationality of human beings, it faintly has the feeling of madness, and the seemingly alive appearance seemed like they were slightly stiff in the limbs.
This is a manifestation of approaching zombification…
“Xiao-Jie entered the federal data network to get news that this new type of virus cannot be cured at all. The virus cells are changing every day. The top scientific research experts are completely helpless. According to the current infection rate, if the cure cannot be found within three months, the entire human civilization and society itself will be paralyzed.”
Although the virus has not caused deaths so far, countless people lying on hospital beds is also a serious problem.

It is too difficult for medical personnel who have not even figured out the virus cells to develop detoxification agents within three months, so hopes are slim. Many countries’ leading figures have already been attacked.

“Look at the situation and make preparations. The house next door to my house is still vacant. You should buy it as soon as possible.”
Chu Huai knew the outcome in his heart and said this with a solemn expression. It was regarded as him accepting Yuan Haolin’s request to form a team.
“Okay.”
Yuan Haolin nodded happily, and he was relieved. In troubled times, many good teammates make it much easier to survive.
In the next few days, they were plunged into nervous preparations.
Yuan Haolin quickly bought the house next door at a high price. With the help of Chu Huai, he began to renovate the insulation and cold-proof layer, install steel doors, bullet-proof windows, and so on.
The garden is also covered with stainless steel like at Chu Huai’s side. The steel fence to prevent thieves is made to be as strong as a cage from top to bottom.
Inside the house, a door was also made on the wall shared by the two families, making it easy to communicate with each other.
Because of the limited time, Yuan Haolin’s house could not have a basement. Chu Huai considered them when he built the basement, so it would not be too crowded when they sought shelter from the cold.
While they were busy renovating, Yu Ke and Tan Xiaojie were not idle.
One was holding a compass, charms, etc., and wandering around in the house to draw multiple patterns and runes, while the other held a computer to closely follow the internal news of the governments of various countries.
Dean Jiang, who had been doing nothing, was very dumbfounded.
Changing into steel doors and bullet-proofing windows, he understands that recent news and the internet have said that many countries have caused riots due to epidemics, and it is indeed necessary to do a good job in home protection.
But the old man didn’t understand why they wanted to make the whole house look like a cage!
It doesn’t matter if the roof above the garden is guarded, it makes sense to prevent thieves from overturning the wall, but Chu Huai installed a heat-proof and cold-proof layer on the indoor wall, he also added a layer of stainless steel skin.
There are three doors in the hallway at the entrance, which are still made of all steel. This is not preventing theft but preventing thieves from escaping, it is a prison!
Not to mention Dean Jiang’s muttering doubts, the neighbors passing by are all looking at them weirdly.
Chu Huai didn’t care about this and they found someone to continue installing their doors.
The house type here is that old-fashioned, each house has a separate corridor at the door, and then the corridor leads to the public area, which does not hinder anyone.
After the end of the world, in addition to zombies, he has to guard against people, and he still feels uneasy even after installing a few more doors.
Someone from the neighborhood asked him and he didn’t conceal it- directly explaining that since watching the news, he was worried that something might happen in this country so he put up a few more doors to be at ease.
At the same time, he urged everyone to pay attention so that they could also prevent thieves from breaking in.
This persuasion was taken seriously by some people, and after thinking about it for a while, the more thoughtful ones also installed more doors in their corridors, and those who were more thoughtful would check the quality of their doors.
But there are also many people who don’t care at all. China has a reputation for having good law and order. How can riots occur?
Everyone is even less worried about epidemics. In the past, SARS and the Black Death caused so much trouble, but in the end weren’t they resolved?
Isn’t it just a virus? No one has died until now. Now that technology is so advanced, a cure will soon be developed.
People who are completely unaware of the serious chaotic situation abroad are not too concerned about the spread of the virus.
If these people didn’t listen to his persuasion, Chu Huai couldn’t help them.
Li Hui, who lives at the place opposite them, is very considerate about what he says. Seeing that his garden has been protected, an anti-theft door has been added to their door- she also followed along after she went and learned from them.
Anyways, it was also so that she could be at ease. Although the place with a garden on the ground floor is good, its security is very low. The open garden is most likely to be entered by thieves. Her family must build more anti-theft protection in their home as she had a child with her.
For this reason, Li Hui quarreled with her man for many days.
The installation of guard rails in the garden and the anti-theft door at the entrance looked easy, but it cost a lot of money.
The two of them didn’t have much savings. They had spent a lot of money when they were preparing to open a small store to purchase goods. In addition, Li Hui’s man had always looked at Chu Huai, his “business rival”, in a very unpleasant way. His wife was close to them so it would be strange if he were too happy.
So because of the installation of garden guardrails and anti-theft doors, when Chu Huai encountered Li Hui after a few days, she was beaten with a swollen face.
Her son had also suffered, with his forehead covered with a thick bandage, making him even more afraid of people.
Dean Jiang can’t bear to see this and even Chu Huai can’t bear it.
The neighbor who had been next door for several months knew that either the man yelled or slammed things.
When he went out to quarrel with others, Li Hui would stay behind, and when he turned around, he would only spread his anger on his own woman.
Li Hui’s character is relatively weak, and there may be other reasons. The quarrel can only be described in a sentence. When her man starts to hit her, she dares not fight back, so she can only protect her son and cry silently.
This time, she was able to rebel against her man by installing garden fences and adding anti-theft doors because of her son’s safety.
But no matter how much they see, they are still outsiders, they are not qualified to take care of other people’s family affairs.
Besides, if Li Hui doesn’t harden her own, no amount of help from others will help.
However, after being neighbors for a few months, Chu Huai had a good impression of this enthusiastic woman, so when Li Hui was out, she would ask to send the child to his home to take care of him and he did not refuse.
He also asked the other party to store more food and water and go out as little as possible.
Dean Jiang, who had been idle all this time, looked at the opposite door all day, with his sense of justice overwhelming him.
One day when Li Hui’s man started to shout and beat her up, the old man simply called the police quietly. The police and the aunts of the street came to educate them and it attracted the whole community to come out to watch the excitement.
Although there is not much substantive punishment, the neighbors’ watching him can also make the man at home silent for a few days, and their ears are relieved.
That night, the old man was suddenly generous and made them a hot pot, which he said cheerfully that it was to celebrate.
Of course, according to Dean Jiang’s stingy personality, the hot pot has barely any meat or pork slices.
Seeing Dean Jiang’s careless and stingy smile, he adjusted the tense and dull atmosphere at home.
Chu Huai also didn’t say that the old man was nosy. He knows the old man’s temper and he does things with a sense of measure. Even if the old man doesn’t take action, he can do other things such as annoy the other party to death.
Of course, what is even more disturbing is the virus that is raging and spreading.
With time, the situation of the virus is now beyond human control. Several countries around the world have fallen into social paralysis, and there are riots and chaos everywhere.
Those who are sensible will find ways to escape, and those who are irrational will be burned, killed, and looted.
Some extreme people have even more thoughts of death, killing many infected people, and throwing their bodies into rivers to pollute water sources, causing the spread of the virus to be completely out of control.
There is no report on this news, but the people on the internet are spreading it quickly, and there is no way to hide it.
The news caused panic among many people, and the Spring Festival, which was supposed to be celebrated lively, was gone.
Fortunately, China had prepared in advance, dispatched its troops to major cities early, and suppressed and pacified them in time without making the country as chaotic as abroad.
At this moment, there is still one month before the apocalypse
Seeing this situation, Chu Huai also began to call his friends who could be reached, in a caring tone, urging everyone to save more food and strengthen the safety measures of their homes.
Then hurriedly let the company send the previously customized fish tank over and race against time to make the final preparations.
I hope Li Hui and her child survive…
yea me too
