Apocalypse: I have a supermarket stocked with supplies-Chapter 101 - : Grab supplies
Chapter 101: Grab supplies
In such situations, Su Yinhe would fiercely despise herself while feeling afraid.
Outside the supermarket, it was extremely cold, and everyone who came to the supermarket was there to buy various tools for heating and also clothes.
There were a lot of people, and Su Yinhe was pleased.
There had been slightly fewer people before, but because of the weather, the numbers had increased again.
Not long ago, someone from the base’s higher-ups, either Xiao Liu or Xiao Shen, had come to her supermarket to buy a large batch of supplies and now they had returned to buy more cold-resistance goods.
They bought, yet they pleaded poverty to her.
...
Even though he was a high-up official, he really didn’t care about maintaining any kind of image.
He was nothing like the imposing Lin Nianbei.
Indeed, having lived for so long, she had seen all kinds of people.
Su Yinhe got so annoyed by his complaining that she gave him a 20% discount.
His face brightened instantly.
Then she regretted it.
Damn.
She felt she had made a loss.
But having said it, she couldn’t take it back now.
The weather turned colder too quickly, initially dry and cold.
Then it started snowing heavily.
Almost overnight, Su Yinhe’s supermarket was buried in snow.
About two floors deep.
After entering the extreme cold, Su Yinhe had changed the supermarket’s operating hours back to daylight hours.
She adjusted her own biological clock as well.
But after sleeping for one night, as she went down to open up, she realized everything outside was white.
Her supermarket was buried in snow.
The supermarket, reinforced by the system, was sturdy and hadn’t been crushed by the snow, which was a good thing.
But the bad thing was, with the snow so deep, no one could come up to shop.
She wouldn’t be able to open for business today.
And this snow wasn’t going to melt anytime soon.
Unless the weather returned to being as blazingly sunny as before, to melt it away.
But according to the information from the base, this extreme cold wouldn’t pass so quickly.
Actually, being buried by snow wasn’t the deadliest issue.
The deadliest issue was that the snow, falling overnight, had accumulated to the depth of two floors.
And, it appeared it would continue to snow.
The sourc𝗲 of this content is freēwēbηovel.c૦m.
It wouldn’t keep snowing until the entire mountain was buried, would it?
Just thinking about this possibility made Su Yinhe feel uneasy.
The base was also troubled by the snowfall.
The moment the snow started, some were actually happy.
The temperature had been too high recently, and everyone was lacking water; then came the extreme cold, but it was dry without any snow.
They wanted snowfall to get water from it.
Then, the snow came, and as it continued, it became too much.
People living near the cave entrance were nearly buried.
Then they realized, as the snow kept falling more and more, before long, they were buried.
At this point, they felt fortunate that they lived in the caves, because if they had stayed inside the houses at the base, the thick snow would have surely collapsed them and they’d be crushed to death.
Now, they were just trapped in the caves.
But not dead.
If this had been the early apocalypse, being trapped in the caves would have driven them insane.
But now, they were just used to it.
As long as they didn’t die, surviving was enough.
Some people had gone to the Galaxy Supermarket early to buy food, drinks, and clothes.
Trapped in the cave, wearing warm clothes, eating spicy instant noodles with sausages added, one couldn’t ask for more comfort.
But some were less fortunate; they hadn’t managed to exchange goods in time, and now trapped in the cave, they only had thin, shabby clothes and suffered from hunger.
To make matters worse, there were those dressed in warm clothes, walking by with bowls of steaming noodles, slurping noisily right in front of them.
“Doesn’t this just invite hatred?”
“They are now trapped in a cave and can’t even go outside to work. Without work, there’s no food, which means hunger.”
“For a day or two, it was bearable, but after four or five days, they couldn’t stand it anymore.”
“Some people who couldn’t keep going just started to rob.”
“They robbed food, instant noodles, rice, firewood.”
“People who had more resources, even the officials, were robbed.”
“Wang Xin and his group were robbed.”
“They were just kids, none of them had superpowers.”
“With so much stuff, it was too tempting for the people around them.”
“Previously, they were vigilant. Seeing anyone approaching, dozens of children would fiercely glare at them.”
“Plus, there were officials patrolling the cave, which kept them restrained for a while.”
“But now the cave was sealed, there was no food, and it was cold.”
“They didn’t spare even the officials at the base, let alone a few children.”
“Those who had been eyeing their possessions teamed up, beat them up, and scoured all their belongings.”
“Not only was the food gone, but some tools were also stolen.”
“There were even beasts among them who tried to assault the girls.”
“If it weren’t for the girls protecting themselves, biting and ramming like mad, preferring death over submission, and because the attackers hurried to eat the stolen food, Xiao Cao and the others might have really been harmed.”
“But even so, they were severely beaten.”
“A dozen children, not one could stand up.”
“Wang Xin also lay on the ground for a long time before he could hold his stomach and get up to help others.”
“One child was so badly injured and, being cold and hungry, he died that very night.”
“Wang Xin and the others didn’t dare let anyone know that someone had died; they gathered around the deceased child.”
“They didn’t dare let anyone find out.”
“Because some people, driven mad by hunger, really turned into beasts.”
“He was already dead, and they didn’t want him to disappear without a trace.”
“Fortunately, it was cold now, and the body didn’t decompose too quickly.”
“Right after those people had robbed them and scoured the place, they wouldn’t come back to them so soon.”
“They could still hide it.”
“They were only sad for one night.”
“Then they started to think about more practical issues.”
“Brother Wang Xin, what should we do?” Ah Qian’s rib was broken in a kick, his thigh was bruised, and his face was swollen from slaps, looking like a pig’s head.”
“It hurt at first, but it was too cold, and soon his body lost sensation, and the pain wasn’t so clear.”
“But he was afraid of hunger.”
“All their food had been stolen.”
“What to do if they got hungry.”
“They still couldn’t get out now.”
“If only they could get out.”
“Recently, Ah Qian got his hands on a Crystal Core, a Level 5.”
“The source wasn’t exactly legitimate; he had stolen it from a Superpower User who had once trampled on him.”
“He had planned to go to the Galaxy Supermarket to exchange it for some food and clothes.”
“But before he had the chance, the cave was buried in snow.”
“And they were robbed.”
“Getting beaten, Ah Qian was used to it; they often got beaten before and this wasn’t the worst injury he suffered, at least he could still move.”
“The worst time, he got beaten till he couldn’t move at all, only able to breathe through his nose.”
“At that time, he really thought he was going to die.”
“But luckily, he was fortunate that Brother Wang Xin carried him back.”
“And in the apocalypse, as long as there were no major wounds, the recovery ability was rather strong.”
“After lying down for a few days, he got better and after getting out of bed, continued to work.”
“He wasn’t afraid of getting beaten, just afraid of not having food, afraid of starvation.”
“Wang Xin reached out, patted him, but said nothing.”
“When the snow sealed the entrance, Wang Xin felt something was wrong.”
“He wanted to lead everyone to run, but the entrance was blocked.”
