Chapter 5, The Final Preparations
The act of killing for a packet of cookies is something I have seen countless times in those apocalyptic movies. In real-life wars, there are also instances where people are killed over a mere morsel of food
That night, Lianjiang Liushi had no idea how he fell asleep
Before going to bed, Jiang Liushi first hired two people to help him move all the supplies next to the minibus. Then he sent a message to everyone in his contact list and specifically reminded Li Yuxin and Jiang Zhuying once again. Amidst his anxiety, Jiang Liushi sat on the supplies next to the minibus and unknowingly fell asleep.
It is "Star Seed"
The modification of the base vehicle (standard version) has been completed. The information of the modified vehicle is as follows
Jiang Zhuying's inability to return is a significant blow to Jiang Liushi's plans. He had originally intended to drive the modified vehicle, carrying a large amount of supplies, along with Jiang Zhuying and the Li Yuxin family, to a resort located more than 100 miles away from Jiangbei City.
That evening, Jiang Zhuying sent a location information to Jiang Liushi. She had rented a teacher's apartment in a small alley next to the school, residing on the top floor, the sixth floor. At the same time, she also sent photos to Jiang Liushi, and indeed, the two rooms were filled with supplies, enough for her to eat, wear, and use for a whole month.
Beep beep beep
A faint electric current slid through his hand, and then Jiang Liushi heard a soft "click" as the car door opened
The originally neat and densely arranged seats have now been reduced to just two side-by-side seats resembling a sofa, accompanied by tables, shelves, and other items.
Shell strength: F level (anti-normal bullet level, impact level)
In fact, Jiang Liushi is not so cold-blooded; within his capabilities and ensuring his own safety, he would also extend a helping hand to others. However, since he is not by Jiang Zhuying's side and cannot protect her, he naturally demands that she ensure her absolute safety and not take any risks.
As long as Jiang Zhuying's safety is ensured, the next priority is how to quickly reach Jinling City.
Space configuration: Bedroom X 1, Kitchen X 1, Bathroom X 1, Small Living Room X 1
Jiang Liu Shi was not awakened by the sound of an alarm clock, nor by the sound of a siren, but by a strange ringing that echoed in his mind
Weapon Equipment: Compressed Air Cannon, Primary Level, Initial Airflow Velocity 810 m/s, Volume 500 L
This car door is actually equipped with a theft-proof sensor, and only he can open it
Seeing that his younger sister obediently agreed, Jiang Liushi finally felt a temporary sense of relief
Jiang Liu was immensely excited, as the results of the modifications were truly satisfying to him
Regarding what to do today, they had already discussed it last night, so when the two of them arrived, they immediately helped Jiang Liushi load all the supplies onto the vehicle
Power: Gasoline-powered type
Maximum speed: 300 km/h
At the same time, the buttons and levers around the dashboard also illuminated their indicator lights
However, the materials required for the upgrade are more extensive. Previously, Jiang Liushi neither had the time nor sufficient funds, and was also unaware of the specific list of required materials, making it impossible to prepare in advance
After temporarily settling down there, he would slowly consider other methods and observe how the situation unfolds. After all, although he is aware that the end of days is approaching, he still has little concept of what the circumstances will be like when it actually arrives
Jiang Liu Shi has already informed Jiang Zhu Ying about the matters concerning the apocalypse, but he did not mention the "Star Seed" in his mind. This is certainly not because he does not trust Jiang Zhu Ying, but rather because explaining it would be too complicated, and there is no need to focus all attention on this matter
Jiang Liu Shi immediately raised his head and ran to the door of the minibus.
Jiang Liushi knows, and Jiang Zhuying probably still has some doubts in her heart. However, regardless of how much she believes, as long as she obediently follows the requirements, that is sufficient
All faults have been repaired
There, he had been once, a place that is usually sparsely populated, yet equipped with all necessary facilities, and there are also very few inhabitants in the vicinity
Jiang Liu took a deep breath, indeed, it is tomorrow...
The three days have passed in the blink of an eye, and during this time, the direction of television news has begun to show signs of unease, with many reports starting to notice issues related to transportation and the situations in various countries
Moreover, the situation along the way is uncertain, and Jiang Liu Shi does not know when he will arrive, which is why he insisted that Jiang Zhu Ying must purchase more supplies and must wait for him to arrive
Depending on the circumstances, further plans will be made at that time. In any case, with this minibus available, their mobility will be much safer than others
From the outside, this minibus looks just like the one before, with no apparent differences. However, as Jiang Liushi approached the door and grasped the handle, some information about this vehicle immediately surfaced in his mind
After admiring the river and the stones for a moment, Jiang Liu suddenly came to his senses and hurriedly ran to the cockpit
Previously, I saw Jiang Liushi living in such a small rental room, piled high with so much food and daily necessities, and I thought he was preparing to open a small convenience store or perhaps was simply a street vendor. I never expected that this young man was actually running a mobile home!
Upon entering the car, Jiang Liushi was instantly dazzled, his mouth slightly agape, and one could say he was utterly astonished
However, these matters did not attract much attention from the general public; they continued to work from 9 to 5, pick up and drop off their children at school, and buy groceries and cook.
This is merely the standard version, which has limited functionality. If one truly wishes to achieve seamless operation, an upgrade is necessary.
Once all the supplies were loaded onto the vehicle, he immediately ran to the car, completely closed the doors and windows, and then nervously took his seat in the driver's position
Well, starting today, do not go outside, lock the doors and windows, and protect yourself. Besides me, do not open the door for anyone, not even for someone you know! Even if it is the end of the world, laws and morals no longer apply. Although Jiang Liushi felt that what he said was somewhat inhumane, he still made a special point to remind.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Zhuying believed his words, yet in the face of the impending apocalypse, she remained surprisingly calm, not only in the mood to take photos but also to express her emotions.
If it were not for the fact that the minibus would not be ready until three days later, Jiang Liushi would truly want to set off right now. However, without the minibus, he is just an ordinary university student, completely lacking the confidence to lead Jiang Zhuying out of the encirclement.
However, now this plan has clearly fallen through. Jiang Liushi not only cannot escape to the suburbs at the first opportunity, but instead must head to the more populous and prosperous city of Nanjing.
However, converting such a dilapidated minibus into a camper van, isn't that a bit absurd? ... Indeed, it seems there is an excess of money to burn
"Do you remember, do not go out on Tuesday, just stay in the dormitory and lock the door to play games," Jiang Liushi reminded once again, regardless of whether Luo Ming would listen or not.
Model: Base vehicle (Standard version, disguised as a minibus)
Now this vehicle has significantly increased Jiang Liushi's survival rate. He took the time to familiarize himself with the operation and then called the two movers from last night to come over again.
Upon seeing the interior space of this vehicle, both individuals were extremely surprised, and their gazes towards Jiang Liushi changed completely.
Why does it have to be Tuesday? Huh, isn't tomorrow Tuesday...
"Brother, don't worry." Jiang Zhuying sent a message, followed by a big smiling face emoji
Jiang Liushi continued to stay at home, occasionally going out to check the situation. During this time, Li Jun and Luo Ming each sent several messages to Jiang Liushi. Jiang Liushi didn't even look at the messages from Li Jun, while the message from Luo Ming was: "Hey buddy, are you okay? Did you run away with a girl after borrowing money? If you don't come back to class soon, I think you're done for!"
The internal spatial structure of this vehicle has been completely transformed, bearing no resemblance to its previous design. Those materials have also vanished entirely.
Understood," Jiang Zhuying replied
The cockpit has undergone significant changes; it is not only in a separate space but also features a very cool interior. It has a large display screen, and around the steering wheel, it resembles a control panel with various buttons and levers.
The carriage has been divided into several sections, all separated by what appear to be high-end sliding doors. Jiang Liushi opened the door and saw a compact yet fully equipped bathroom, a kitchen, and a small bedroom, with a bed that looked very soft.
As for Jiang Liushi, he was completely too busy to pay attention to the reactions of the two individuals, merely keeping an eye on the time and observing his surroundings
Jiang Liu sat down in the fully leather, very soft driver's seat, gripping the steering wheel with both hands. Instantly, the entire car became vividly clear in his mind
