Chi Li carried her child into the prefabricated house arranged for them by the staff, only to find that they were not the only ones living there.



Looking at the left and right sides of the floor, there were quilts placed against the walls, leaving only a small space like an aisle in the middle to separate each other, indicating that at least two people lived here.



Or two families.



The indoor area was visually estimated to be just over ten square meters. With so many people living in such a small place, it was really crowded, but there was no way. No matter how big the shelter was, it couldn't cope with the large number of survivors.



Even though the city is empty, there are only zombies. No matter day or night, it is difficult to see a living person within a hundred meters.



In fact, there are still many human beings who survived in the early days of the apocalypse. However, they were chased by zombies. Either actively or passively, they all fled the zombie-dense cities and went to various shelters and survivor bases that could accommodate them.



You can tell from the fact that there are still survivors pouring into the shelter until now. The territory has not expanded, but the number of people has continued to increase. Even if there was plenty of space at the beginning, it will gradually become overcrowded.



Even without seeing it with her own eyes, Chili could guess that some shelters or survivor bases should no longer accept new survivors due to over-saturation of personnel.



To put it simply, I can’t live any longer.



Therefore, when conditions are limited and I am unable to change myself, I cannot ask for a better living environment.



Of course, this is for others.



Chi Li, who originally thought she could live in a single room, saw the environment and walked out without even taking a single step inside.



To be honest, if they had to live here with two waves of strangers, the mother and daughter would be more comfortable living in a car.



It's not that Chili can't endure hardship, it's mainly because she has the strength and resources, so why should she suffer this for nothing?



Fortunately, the staff who led them here hadn't gone far yet. Chi Li stopped them directly: "Do you have any other accommodation with better conditions here?"



This is a blatant disdain for this kind of free accommodation.



The staff said they were not surprised by this. She brought countless people into this kind of free group housing, and nine and a half out of ten people disliked the poor environment and wanted to change places.



So when Chi Li asked, she didn't say more than a few words. She directly took out a piece of paper and handed it to her, her movements were particularly skillful.



"All the houses currently for rent in the shelter are here. Take a look for yourself."



Chi Li took the paper handed over by the other party and took a closer look. She found that it was a house rental information sheet written on sketch paper. It listed many houses in the shelter that were still for rent. Various information about the houses was also listed. Written in concise words and in great detail.



For example, there is a house that was cleared from the employee dormitory of the original factory area. It says: Bed No. 306 in Dormitory on the third floor of Factory No. , eight-person dormitory, with toilet and balcony, five kilograms of grain or thirty kilograms of drinking water per month. , other materials have different stock prices.



There are no restrictions on the types of food and drinking water listed in the price. Five kilograms of rice and five kilograms of instant noodles are equivalent. Similarly, the same goes for various beverages and drinkable water. And because of the water pressure scale, the required weight is more. , even six times that of food.



For others, it is definitely not cost-effective to use drinking water to pay rent. They don’t know how many bottles of drinks they have to collect to reach the 30-pound standard. But for Chili, a water power user, it is like giving it away for free. Welfare.



She also knew why the shelter required water and specifically marked it as drinking water.



Because after the end of the world, all natural resources around the world have been polluted, including water and land resources. Someone once saw a normal person turning into a zombie because of drinking contaminated water.



Similar things happen frequently all over the world. Human beings who have learned lessons will naturally learn from their mistakes and learn new common sense for survival in the end of the world.



Common sense 1: Don’t drink any unclean water, especially wild water.    

Common sense 2: Don’t eat random plants that grow out of the soil, because in the end you can’t guarantee whether the plants eat you or you eat the plants. In addition, you are also not sure whether the plants have absorbed nutrients from the contaminated soil and caused mutations. Nothing poisonous.



When they first discovered that the water was contaminated and undrinkable, everyone was still desperate. After all, if humans want to survive, they must be inseparable from water. At least they haven't evolved to the point where they can survive without water.



So what if those sealed drinks are still drinkable? No matter how much water is stored, it will be exhausted at some point, and so many people need water.



It’s rare to wait until the last bottle of water in the world is drunk, and everyone will die together?



Fortunately, the sky is the limit. First, the emergence of water superpowers provided all surviving humans with a lot of safe and harmless humanoid water sources. Then, after a series of studies, the remaining scientific researchers discovered some of the water that can be used by human beings. Some of the freshwater resources obtained by humans come from mutated plants themselves.



Although some mutated plants are poisonous and dangerous, there are also some that are harmless and edible. However, because various plant groups have mutated so much, people have to re-study and observe the various characteristics of these new plants in order to reorganize them. Utilize them and turn them into resources that can be used by them.



However, until the ability to convert polluted water into clean fresh water is thoroughly developed, water power users are still very popular in this apocalyptic world.



This is why everyone was so friendly to Chili and her daughter after they entered the shelter.



I'm afraid that tomorrow at the latest, someone should come to Chi Li to discuss cooperation.



But Chili didn't want to become a mobile water source. After reading all the house price lists given by the staff, she returned the paper to the house without mentioning the renting of a house. She just carried little Tongtong back to their car to live in. .



"We'll leave tomorrow."



In the car, Chi Li said this to her daughter. Even though she knew that the child would not ask why, she still explained: "This is not the right place for you to grow up."



It's not that this shelter is not good. In fact, even if she hasn't seen the situation in other shelters, Chili can judge that this shelter is one of the better managed ones.



If it is just a short-term transition, there is no problem, but the problem is that Chili is looking for a place where mother and daughter can live for a long time and provide a relatively stable environment for their children to grow up. This place is obviously not suitable.



Even because there were too many people here and there were noisy sounds everywhere, Chili couldn't find a quiet place to perform the enlightenment technique on her children.



"It's better to find a place outside where there are zombies and no one to help you practice." Chi Li muttered.



"Mom, shush shush..."



Little Tongtong didn't know what her mother was thinking. She only knew that she hadn't gone to the toilet for a long time and now she had to urinate urgently.



Seeing this, Chi Li immediately picked up the child and ran to the nearest public toilet.



Thank God the infrastructure here is complete and there are public toilets, otherwise the mother and daughter would not know how to solve their physical problems.



Although she said she was leaving, Chili actually stayed in the shelter with her children for a week before leaving.



One reason is that she has to wait for the physical examination report of the mother and daughter. Since they have been checked, they have to see the results. The other reason is that Chili made a small deal with the personnel sent by the base to negotiate with her.



Yes, after saying that she was not a humanoid water source, Chi Li couldn't bear it in the end and couldn't resist her pleas, so she provided a large amount of water. In exchange, her car was modified by professionals, and its defensive performance and other aspects were improved. It has been upgraded, even the car window glass has been replaced with stronger bulletproof glass, and a batch of thermal weapons have been obtained.



It was because they had to wait for the car modification to be completed that Chili and her daughter had to stay here for so long.
