Chapter 99.
Countdown to Doomsday: 5 days.
7:40 AM.
It was supposed to be a very unusual day, Chu Juan and her husband ate breakfast together and prepared to go out to work individually.
While changing shoes, Chu Juan took out her cell phone and swiped it.
Recently, most people had gotten into the habit of brushing their cell phone messages, and three months ago the news about the meteorite began to circulate, especially in the last month or two, the disaster said constantly.
Originally it was slightly under control, but I don’t know when it started, but the price of food has gone up and up and up, the patrols have become more numerous, infrastructure is being built everywhere, factories are expanding, and so on ……
So much so that even the most ordinary of the masses can vaguely sense that something is wrong.
Especially in recent days.
All sorts of gossip continues, and even many network publicists analyze, what doomsday, natural disasters, earthquakes and the destruction of the planet …… rumors continue, each with their own exaggerations.
Even quite a few people think – the planet is about to be destroyed, and human beings will be like dinosaurs, completely disappearing from this world.
It makes everyone panic.
Of course, engraved in the bones of the habit is difficult to change, even if the rumors continue, most people still go to work as usual, the school to go to school, even if the mind fluctuates, but also still do their own things.
Even if their minds are wandering, they still do their own thing, but inevitably they can’t help it, and they buy some food and leave it at home.
Chu Juan and her husband are.
Only today is different, after she swiped her cell phone, she froze.
“Honey, why don’t you change your shoes?” The husband asked.
Chu Juan swallowed her saliva and lifted her cell phone up with a serious look, “Husband, something might have happened.”
Cell phone interface, countless messages pushed-
Twenty minutes later, the country’s top leaders will convene a “meteorite disaster informational meeting”, all screens, TVs, computers, cell phones, will be synchronized broadcast, I hope that the people of the country to stop what they are doing, to remind their friends and relatives, on time to watch.
Meteorite disaster!
The word disaster alone is enough to indicate the gravity of the situation.
The husband panicked and called, “I’ll notify mom and dad right away, and you also notify them inside the various groups of relatives ……”
However the words landed on the ground, countless messages were sent over, and others were also notifying him.
Mom and dad’s phone has also called.
Nineteen minutes later.
Almost everyone he knew received the news, and the two of them nervously sat on the sofa with the TV on.
Chu Juan suddenly wondered, “Why is it so tight?”
From the time the notification was sent out to the time it was officially told that it would be broadcast live, it was surprisingly only a short twenty minutes!
The husband shook his head.
Every unit, every school, every public place, all the big screens …… were all playing the same picture, including all the cell phones, also popped up the same link to the live broadcast of the informational meeting.
Involving a huge disaster.
At this moment, almost everyone in the country is watching, even in various villages, the elderly also all open the TV, as long as open, all channels are the same live picture.
Of course there are people who haven’t watched, but there are still five days to go, they will definitely know.
Some were afraid they wouldn’t understand and gathered with others to watch.
On the screen, the country’s highest-ranking leader stood on the stage, in the very center, and that face made people feel at ease and solid just by appearing on the screen.
“I apologize for suddenly disturbing you all today, but this is a matter that involves the safety of people all over the world, so it is necessary to inform everyone in the country in this form ……”
The big leader’s voice was gentle and firm.
His slow tone of voice made the originally nervous and apprehensive crowd all collect their restless minds and listen to him tell a matter that sounded very “bizarre” to everyone.
Five days after the meteorite, natural disasters, doomsday, heresy, reborn, alien ……
One by one, everyone was baffled by the information, and then they were in an uproar.
A certain park.
A large screen was set up in front of it, gathering countless people to watch, they heard it and talked about it-
“Heavens, wouldn’t the world be destroyed?”
“What is rebirth, huh? Already experienced it once? Doomed to misery, what then?”
“Oh my god, aren’t we all going to die!”
“It’s so shocking, how could something like this happen?”
“Shhh, be quiet, keep listening!”
The leader took a deep breath and continued:
“I know that at this moment, we are all worried and can’t control our anxiety and despair, but as long as the world is not completely destroyed, we can’t give up at any point in time.
“As long as the country is still standing, we will do everything we can to protect the people of the country, and while disasters are terrible, have we experienced fewer of them since the beginning of time?
“This time, the disaster is certainly serious and has even been called ‘doomsday’, but we are not unprepared.
“Please be quiet and listen to what the country has done to prepare for this disaster ……”
His voice drew everyone to silence.
Inside the noisy school, the students all quieted down and looked attentively at the screen.
No matter how much they had to say or think, they could talk about it after the informational meeting, right now, they were more interested in knowing the country’s preparation.
Such a disaster ……
How much preparation has the country made? Can it give them hope to live?
Behind the leaders, huge screens cut out, a photo and video, a real data.
What is the primary concern of a post-apocalyptic natural disaster?
Food!
“I know that everyone is most worried about the food issue, after determining the end time natural disaster from the mouths of the reborn, the country immediately began to implement the food stocking program, recycling supplies, seizing food, purchasing, and processing ……”
On the screen was a page with huge data written on it, a real photo.
Switching again, a live broadcast from a different place-
“Hello nation! This is the temporary granary of the shelter, stocking the entire shelter with a year’s worth of rations.”
“Greetings nationwide! This is the county-level shelter food dispatch center, which has ensured that all shelters have stocked more than one year’s worth of rations, and the county-level dispatch centers have also stocked half a year’s worth of rations for all shelters under their jurisdiction, and are ready to dispatch at any time.”
“Good day to the people of the nation! This is the municipal shelter food dispatch center ……”
“Hello people of the nation! This is the provincial level ……”
“Good day to the people of the nation! This is the Central General Grain District, dozens of hidden underground warehouses that hoard two years’ worth of rations for the entire nation, the last line of defense for mankind!”
Scene switch.
In the breeding factory, large batches of poultry are being slaughtered and transported by the truckload to the overtime factory production.
Countless fresh meat, jerky, canned meat, are leaving the factory in batches at a terrifying speed, being pulled away by long lines of army green trucks, and those big army green trucks full of goods have bright red flags.
“Good day to all the people of the country! Here is one of the hundred military factories, our factory’s latest production of military doomsday canned food, shelf life of up to 10 years, the number of military canned meat can be guaranteed to support the whole country for three years, and ……”
On the seashore, countless fishing boats, sending boatloads of fish to a factory on the coast.
A batch of dried fish, a batch of canned goods, produced at a terrifying speed, still long dragon-like military-green trucks, pulling these canned goods, heading to all parts of the country.
“Good day to the people of the country! This is the seafood processing plant ……”
In addition to that.
Compressed dry food factories, cookie factories, instant food factories, dehydrated food factories, self-heating boxed lunch factories, mineral water factories ……
Countless factories, even at this moment, still haven’t stopped.
Those batches of food leaving the factory, those long dragons like pulling away the goods, piling up mountains of warehouses, give everyone inexplicable peace of mind and the bottom line.
