Travel through famine years and awaken a post-apocalyptic survival system.

Zhao Qingsong watched the two leave, opened the courtyard gate, pushed the bicycle inside, and bolted the door.

When I got home, the first thing I did was go to the basement and turn on the air conditioner.

They then couldn't wait to start using the bathroom blueprints.

[Ding, would you like to use this device in conjunction with a freshwater collector?]

【Yes】

After a little thought, I made up my mind.

Materials have been used up.

A separate wet and dry toilet appeared in the corner, and it was not very big, only a few square meters.

Stone may have been used; the floor and walls were made of marble.

The outermost part is a water tank, and inside is a separate wet and dry squat toilet, where an ordinary toilet lies quietly.

"The toilet has no water!"

Zhao Qingsong frowned as he looked at the water in the toilet.

The freshwater collector can only collect 10L of water per day, so it's definitely not suitable for this purpose. It seems that until a solution to the water problem is found, we'll have to resort to flushing the toilet for the time being.

but……

He quickly thought of a problem.

So, what about drainage and sewage discharge?

This is underground, surely it can't be discharged properly!

There was still a lot of tap water left in the room, so I poured a lot of water into the toilet and the toilet tank and pressed the flush button.

"Splash!"

The powerful current of water surged and propelled the water directly outwards.

"It really did wash away! Where did the water go? It couldn't have gone into the groundwater!"

Zhao Qingsong had a conflicted expression on his face.

If that's the case, is the groundwater still drinkable?

If he couldn't figure it out, he stopped thinking about it. He had seen all sorts of mysterious things, so he didn't need this one more.

Overall, it's not bad.

Since there is a Level 1 freshwater processor, there will definitely be a Level 2 one in the future, which will surely improve the ability to collect freshwater.

I stretched and decided to cook.

Make a little extra today, store it in the space later, and take it out when you want to eat it.

……

Stir-fry the pork in a wok, add soy sauce and chili to make it fragrant, then add soy milk to stew the meat in the wok, and finally add some Chinese cabbage.

He was extremely busy at home.

The neighboring families, however, suffered.

Grandma Wang and her family were eating when a delicious aroma suddenly wafted into her nose, and she instinctively sniffed it.

"Who's roasting pork here?"

The daughter-in-law asked curiously, "Eat meat? Who gets to eat meat these days? Steel mills only serve meat once every three months, but that's only for steel mills..."

After saying that, I realized something was wrong.

He took a deep sniff.

"Wow, it really is meat! Whose family ate it?!"

He picked up his rice bowl and went out of the room.

The whole family came out.

He sniffed the left and the right sides, sensing movement outside, and quickly opened the courtyard gate.

"Sister Wang, you've had meat at home? It smells so good! The kids are drooling."

Someone called out to Grandma Wang from the alleyway outside the gate.

Aunt Wang gave a wry smile: "Where would I get meat? It's not our family's." After saying that, she picked up her chopsticks and walked a short distance away.

Finally, it stopped at Zhao Qingsong's courtyard.

"Sniff! Sniff!"

After smelling the aroma, he said, "This is the place!"

"Ah, whose house is this! Isn't that Dazhi's old house?"

"Hey, sold! He was also from the steel mill."

Aunt Wang explained.

"Oh, a newcomer! How come they have meat to eat? Did they steal it?"

Someone asked a worried question.

Aunt Wang frowned slightly. It's not impossible!

I initially thought Zhao Qingsong was from the security department, but there are quite a few people who steal in the factory, and they've been caught before, so it's not impossible!

After thinking about it, I decided to ask anyway.

"Then I'll go ask."

After saying that, he went to knock on the door.

……

Zhao Qingsong was cooking at home when he heard shouts outside, so he put down his spatula and went out.

The gate opened, and Grandma Wang was standing at the entrance.

"Aunt Wang! You were looking for me?"

Then, turning his attention to the onlookers in the alley, he instantly understood what was going on.

Aunt Wang peeked in and laughed, "Little Zhao! Did you cook meat at home? Did your company give you meat?"

It wasn't a direct injustice.

Zhao Qingsong glanced at the others.

He had actually guessed that someone might come and ask, which is why he specially cooked the dishes so fragrantly, hoping to solve the problem once and for all.

Otherwise, I will still be harassed in the future.

These days, quite a few people are reported for food-related offenses.

Thinking of this, he smiled and explained, "The company didn't provide any meat. I went hunting in the mountains and caught two wild boars, weighing over 300 jin (150 kg). The company only gave me a few jin of meat. So, I'm having a treat tonight."

"hiss!"

His words made everyone gasp.

How many kilograms?

Even Aunt Wang's lips twitched: "My goodness, over 300 pounds! That's so much!"

"Yes, that's right! The steel mill has registered all the meat I received."

"oh!"

Aunt Wang swallowed hard, then chuckled and said, "I was just asking, it's nothing, you go about your business!"

Zhao Qingsong nodded slightly upon hearing this: "Then I'll go back first, lest the pot burn."

After saying that, he closed the courtyard gate.

He didn't close the door completely, but left it slightly ajar as he returned to the living room.

While busy working, I kept looking outside.

If he wants to eat meat, this is something he'll have to face eventually, so it's better to just be upfront about it all at once.

……

He ignored the commotion outside, cooked several dishes, and then finished.

I kept enough for myself, and put the rest into my space using lunchboxes.

After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, they finally closed the door.

After washing up, I took the blanket downstairs.

warm!

It's so warm.

He's going to sleep here tonight.

I set the temperature to 25 degrees Celsius and lay down directly without even covering myself with a blanket.

Comfortable!

After enjoying the moment for a while, he began to think about his task.

There definitely won't be a "beast tide" this time, but the quest will definitely exist, and the level will be determined based on the number of kills.

that……

He needs to kill some animals before dawn next Monday to complete his task.

His first thought was of slaughterhouses.

However, this is not a place he can enter.

Moreover, the animals slaughtered in slaughterhouses now are mostly pigs, sheep, and cattle, and the number is very small. The chickens and ducks sold in the market are not slaughtered.

How do I finish it?

If all else fails, then we can go into the mountains on Sunday. We have a gun, so we can hunt some game.

Then I focused my thoughts on the case at work.

He suspected there was a mole within his workplace, but he didn't know who it was!

People like Gao Dazhi and Lao Zhou are all possibilities, because the murderer who killed Xu Jing and her brother might be an accomplice of someone in the department.

It doesn't necessarily mean that someone in the department does it personally.

Can any of these people be ruled out?

Sun Guodong?

He never suspected this person because he always had an alibi, and he wasn't involved in the arrest of Sun Dalei.

But there's no guarantee they won't tip you off!

It cannot be ruled out.

Even when Wu Zhiqiang was injured, he did not let go of his suspicions.

He was bombarded with movies and TV shows in his past life, so he can identify with all sorts of situations.

What if Wu Qiang is using a self-inflicted injury ruse?

The thought of having such a huge hidden danger around him gave him a headache; this kind of person was truly capable of killing.
