I’m Hoarding for the Apocalypse

Secret Weapon

She looked at the ring he wore. The ring was silver-white in color and about one centimeter wide. It had a simple design, and there were no embellishments or patterns on it.

As long as the thorns were not exposed, it would be an ordinary ring.

Just like what the man had said, if she wore this ring on her finger, anyone would think that it was just a simple accessory and would not be guarded against it at all.

If she could live a stable life like before, this ring would be useless to her.

However, things were different now. The world was dangerous, and the order of the world would soon be in chaos. This ring could be considered an item that could be used to save her life in the future.

Du Yue really wanted it, but the price…

The man told her to name any price as long as it was enough for him to eat a few full meals, so how much should she offer him?

After a moment’s consideration, Du Yue made an offer and said, “I’ll give you 50,000.”

This was the price that the man had just offered.

“That’s great! It’s a deal!”

Hearing the man’s agreement, Du Yue did not hesitate at all. She got her backpack and took out 50,000 yuan in cash and handed it to the man.

50,000 yuan in cash was not a small amount regardless of the time they were in. It was a heavy pile in her hand and carried a lot of weight.

Looking at the cash Du Yue handed over, He Xing was a little confused. “You carry around so much cash in your backpack every day and just walk around like that?”

Du Yue nodded without a care. “Yeah! Mobile payment is no longer available in the city or even the province, so cash is the only way.”

The high temperature had lasted for so long that everyone had gotten used to a life of lying in wait during the day and coming out only at night. Water and electricity were limited in their daily lives, and the students and white-collared workers had also stopped going to classes and work.

In addition, the rumors about doomsday on the internet were getting more and more serious, causing people to panic.

Except for a few large chain stores that allowed WeChat payment, the other small stores only accepted cash.

Thus, Du Yue would carry a backpack with a relatively large capacity when she went out every night so that she could use it to store cash or things she bought.

He Xing nodded in understanding after hearing the explanation. He took the money from the girl and passed his ring to her.

After Du Yue received the ring, she gave the other party a simple nod before she turned and left.

She walked in a hurry, and her figure quickly disappeared into the darkness.

He Xing touched his nose awkwardly as he watched the other party leave in a hurry.

Was he a man-eating monster? Why was she in such a hurry to get away?

…

Of course, Du Yue had no idea what He Xing was thinking. She did not go home immediately after she left. Instead, she continued to stroll around the neighborhood.

She strolled around for more than an hour, but she was not wandering around aimlessly for the entire hour. It was not just to get used to the temperature outside but also because she wanted to find out what the residents were talking about.

Although she had already hoarded enough supplies, she had never thought of staying away from the crowd and living in seclusion.

It might be helpful for her future doomsday life if she inquired more about the people in the surrounding area.

However, she didn’t hear any valuable information from the other residents of the community that night. The people were now talking about the increasing food prices and which family’s elderly had been sent to the hospital because of fever.

As she did not manage to find any useful information, Du Yue vigilantly observed her surroundings to make sure that no one was following her before she turned around and returned to the building where she lived.

It was already past midnight when Du Yue returned home. The water supply had stopped long ago.

Du Yue went to the bathroom and took out a large wooden bathtub from the interspace. She took off her clothes before going into the tub.

The water in the tub was neither hot nor cold. Du Yue had prepared it before she left the house so that she could have a comfortable bath even after the water supply was cut off.

After the bath, this basin of water could be used to flush the toilet. This water could be used for two purposes, and it could be considered to be fully utilized.

Du Yue took a shower almost every day, so she wasn’t dirty. It was just that the temperature outside was too high, so she would be soaked in sweat after going out.

Her hair was not long, so it was easy to wash it.

In about 10 minutes, Du Yue came out of the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel. She also had a towel wrapped around her head. The temperature was so high now that there was no need for a hairdryer. She only needed to let her hair air dry briefly.
