Apocalypse: After Being Reborn, I Stocked Up on All Supplies Chapter 37 - 37 Consequences Are Coming!

Chapter 37: Chapter 37 Consequences Are Coming!

“Yue~”

Even through the screen, one could sll the intense odor of corpses decaying under the high temperatures, and Jiang Yan couldn’t help but retch.

The Blood Mosquitoes in the footage, as if they had latched onto her own skin, sent shivers down her spine, chilling one to the core!

Scientifically speaking, a human body’s blood would only completely coagulate after 24 hours post mortem.

Of course, due to factors like temperature and bodily diseases, this coagulation could either take longer or shorter.

But around the skulls of those mummified corpses, there were clearly dried pools of blood.

This indicated that the bodies, when thrown out of their hos, had been dead for less than 24 hours!

And the body that was sward with Blood Mosquitoes, with blood not yet fully drained, was clearly a recent drop.

The distributor of the photo was from Building E, Unit 1104, who used a profile picture depicting a vast and open landscape.

Most likely, he was a mature and steady gentleman.

[E-1104: Everyone, look at this! Is this a distortion of human nature or the decay of morality?! F*ck, who does that?!! Absolutely inhuman!!!]

[E-1605: The police line is constantly busy, but I’ll keep calling!!! Those heartless bastards, you’ll get yours eventually!! F*ck!]

[C-2303: Cough, cough, cough, the brother upstairs is too naive…]

[D-703: Damn! I’ve only seen objects thrown from high places! How did it turn to throwing bodies?! Can we still live in this apartnt complex?!! Rage.jpg]

[A-702: Isn’t that a bit much?! It’s only been a few high-temperature days; we’re not at the apocalypse yet. How can they go so far?!!]

[C-602: God! It’s that exaggerated; how will we live after this?!!]

[B-101: Damn it, which rciless bastards did this! How do you expect us first-floor residents to live!!! I curse your children to be born without assholes!!!]

[C-104: Once Pandora’s box is opened… contemplating_face.jpg]

[…]

Following were various angry swears and curses.

The group chat revealed that soon after daylight, once the Blood Mosquitoes had returned to their nests, the property managent braved the high temperatures and blistering sunlight to clean up all the corpses.

They then placed them in the square dance area at the entrance of the community, doused them with gasoline, and burned them all together.

Jiang Yan felt a sinking feeling after looking through the information.

This was truly bewildering.

She admitted that it was not easy to handle bodies in sixty-degree heat.

But, in any case, giving the deceased so basic dignity should be the bottom line for their families.

And this was just the beginning.

Seventy-degree weather hadn’t even arrived yet!

The flooding that reached the 20th floor hadn’t arrived yet either!!

Since these people are now willing to throw their deceased loved ones downstairs as casually as tossing out the trash.

Imagine what it would be like when supplies dwindled to nothing.

However, this also indicated one thing, despite official dia efforts to reassure and subtly influence the population, many people had already believed that the apocalypse had arrived.

Jiang Yan took a deep breath, pulled herself together, lifted her coffee, and drank the lot in one go, then checked the ssages from Zhang Qiming.

Zhang Qiming: [Young President Jiang, have you woken up? Hi.jpg]

Zhang Qiming: [I accidentally wandered into the property managent surveillance room yesterday and discovered this, but rest assured, I’ve already erased the data on their side, so it won’t affect you. And since the power supply in our compound has been cut, nobody else can check it now! Smile.jpg]

Zhang Qiming: [32F-No.7-surveillance_video_clip.avi]

Jiang Yan: “…”

She clicked to open it, exactly the mont she erged from the elevator carrying an electric saw, until the mont He Chuni bolted back ho.

Zhang Qiming: [Young President Jiang, you really looked powerful! I’m tempted to give you a hero’s BGM, you’re like Wonder Woman! Also, just between us, you look way better in person than on social dia! Even though you were wearing sunglasses, I recognized you instantly! I’m a huge fan!! ps. I didn’t recognize you before when I added you on WeChat because you were very discreet, so please forgive !]

Zhang Qiming: [Young President Jiang, back to the matter at hand, there’s a lot of information in the residents’ group chat. I guess you don’t have ti to look through it all, so let just brief you:

The authorities and property managent are setting up a temporary refuge in the underground garage, and they will start arranging for the residents to stay there starting tonight. They will provide a small amount of drinking water and canned goods like compressed biscuits, but we’ll have to collect these supplies ourselves when the governnt’s delivery arrives later.

I noticed you didn’t sign up, so I voluntarily registered for you, and I will also collect the supplies for you. After all, you live on the top floor, and in a couple of days, the temperature is going to rise to seventy degrees! You probably won’t be able to stand it!]

Zhang Qiming: [Young President Jiang, please send a ssage or call after you see this. The underground parking will have big open berths, and I’ll try to get the property managent to arrange a spot in the corner just for you, which will be a bit more private! Hehe.jpg]

Zhang Qiming: [Young President Jiang, have you woken up yet? Staring.jpg]

The sender kept addressing her as Young President Jiang with a polite “you”.

Jiang Yan’s eyelids twitched, and goosebumps spread across her arms like they were about to fall off.

What, exactly, was his angle?

Regardless of his unwarranted attentiveness or ulterior motives, she was too lazy to care at the mont.

As she expected, the underground parking lot would indeed be converted into a temporary refuge.

Over five hundred parking spaces, for over five hundred households, amounted to roughly ten square ters per family.

That was ample space for a single person like her.

But it was obviously crowded for families with both elderly and children, leading to a sharing of space.

With an average of three people per household, there were altogether one thousand five hundred people.

Although so of the apartnts were unoccupied, with the property managent staff included, the number wouldn’t differ much.

That many people, cramd into such an area, eating, drinking, relieving themselves, sleeping—the image was hard to fathom.

And since the water and power were already cut off, accessing bathrooms beca a serious issue.

However, not moving down there was likened to waiting for death.

Above was a steam cage.

Below was a prison cage.

But at least the temperature would be sowhat lower, plus they had electricity, water, and food.

Of two evils, choose the lesser one; obviously, the underground option was better.

Furthermore, although this high temperature ca unexpectedly, the governnt’s ergency response and solutions were fairly quick.

As for the future…

These were not issues for Jiang Yan to consider.

rely watching surveillance and texting had already derailed her training schedule.

Jiang Yan switched off her phone and got up to go to the second-floor gym.

Elsewhere.

Descending floors was much easier than climbing them, so Zhang Qiming quickly made it back down to the 28th floor.

Just as he switched from the stairwell to the corridor of the floor, having faced rejection at the door on the 32nd, he spotted a familiar figure from afar:

It was the beautiful supporting actress from the footage sent to Jiang Yan, Zhang Qiqi.

But now, she had a bob cut level with her ears and wore an even more revealing floral dress than the day before.

Despite her sweaty face, she still carried an air of elegance.

When she had first moved in, she had sought him out several tis to coordinate over so issues.
