There was no reply from the original poster.
Li Ran decided to leave a message online.
[ Attention everyone! Unless absolutely necessary, do not go out. Do not get drenched by the red acid rain. May everyone stay safe. ]
She looked at the time.
Twenty minutes had passed.
Li Ran decided to go back into the mysterious space.
The peanuts she had planted earlier had indeed matured.
She harvested the peanuts.
[ Today’s mission has been completed. One bedroom is rewarded. You now have access to the kitchen supplies. Please check it out. ]
Li Ran immediately went into the wooden house.
She was very surprised.
The bedroom was furnished!
There was a bed, a bedside table, and a wardrobe!
What pleased Li Ran the most was a new lock on the door.
This space was too good to be true!
Li Ran continued to shuffle back and forth between the space and home. She packed up all her favorite clothes and carried them into the space.
There were a lot of things that she needed to do!
Li Ran was exhausted before she could even check out the kitchen.
She decided to return home for the day.
After that, she wiped the sweat off her body and laid on her bed.
She had to continue working hard. At the very least, she had to make sure that the wooden house had a functional bathroom!
Li Ran decided to think about all this later as she was drained.
“Baby, are you tired too?”
Li Ran muttered to herself.
Just as she said that, her phone vibrated. It finally hit her that a few days had passed.
She had been so isolated from the world.
On the bright side, if she was hungry, she could eat. If she was thirsty, she could drink.
In any case, she did not have to worry about food and water at all.
Was it her parents? They managed to keep in contact, but dare not call each other and usually just talk through text messages.
Li Ran picked up her phone and took a look.
It was Lin Nan!
She answered the call immediately.
Her excited voice could not be concealed. “You... is it safe for you to make a call?”
Lin Nan paused for a moment. He then lowered his voice and asked, “Where are you?”
“I’m at home. Don’t worry. Everything is fine here.”
Li Ran immediately reported her situation to Lin Nan.
“Okay, stay at home. Don’t go out, understand? Just don’t!”
“I understand! I won’t go out.”
Li Ran reaffirmed him.
“Also, don’t get in contact with the red rain. Just stay at home and wait for me. I’ll think of a way to rescue you. Do you have enough food and water?”
Hearing how her husband worried about her made Li Ran happy.
She did not marry the wrong person.
In the current situation, it was difficult for everyone to even protect themselves. However, Lin Nan was prioritizing her. It would be a lie to say that she was not touched. Li Ran sniffled.
She quickly replied, “I’ll be fine. Don’t worry.”
“Have you contacted your parents?”
“Yes, I’ve already given them instructions on how to stay safe.”
“Okay, wait for me.”
After saying that, Lin Nan hung up the phone.
Li Ran felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted. She was so relieved.
However, she had a gut feeling that the red rain was connected to the mysterious space.
...
The world fell into chaos in just a few days.
At a small supermarket across the street, a man could be seen.
This man’s name was Wang Gang. He was a retired special forces soldier. He had to retire early due to some injuries.
His left hand could not move as quickly as his right hand.
However, he could still easily perform most tasks.
“Listen up, kid. Don’t even think about finding the police or rescue team. The world is already a mess. The only way for you to survive is to find a shelter with supplies. Once you do, stay there until you’ve finished all the food and drinks. Then, move to another place.”
Wang Gang finished speaking but there was no reply at all from the recipient.
He frowned and glanced in a certain direction.
There was a boy who was sitting down on the ground in tears. When their eyes met, he immediately sobbed, “You beat my parents to death! Why don’t you beat me to death too?!”
...
Wang gang was completely speechless.
“Are you really an adult? Are you even 18 years old?”
“I’m 20 years old!” The boy replied angrily.
“So you’re a giant baby? Your parents were already infected! If you really want to die, then I won’t stop you.”
After saying that, Wang Gang waved his hand and left.
There were no more supplies at the small supermarket anyway.
Before leaving, he turned back and said, “Remember, once you’re infected, you’re not human anymore. You become a zombie and zombies eat people.”
Wang Gang then strode away.
Hearing that, the boy’s eyes turned red! He gritted his teeth and shouted, “My parents did not eat anyone! That person was already dead!”
