Survival in the apocalypse: I exploited a bug in an infinite dungeon.

"Is your security door newly installed? It's quite unique." The female property manager tried to make conversation when she saw that Shi Jinwei was a bit indifferent.

"My husband is faking it," she said casually.

It's much safer to say you have a husband than to say you're single these days.

She noticed that the male property manager kept glancing into the room, but she didn't try to block him.

She kept all the supplies in the guest bedroom, leaving the living room empty and bare, not caring at all about them seeing them.

Moreover, the more you try to cover it up, the more likely you are to arouse suspicion.

The female property manager didn't even look around the room. Seeing that Shi Jinwei had filled in her information, she suggested, "Ms. Shi, since you have a husband, could you please fill in his information as well?"

Shi Jinwei: "..."

You have to cover up the lie you told yourself, even if you close your eyes.

Fortunately, all you need to fill in is your name, phone number, and address; there's no need for other miscellaneous information like your ID card.

Shi Jinwei just made up a name and changed a few digits of her own phone number when filling in the phone number.

Seeing that she wrote very quickly and didn't want to talk to them much, the two wisely kept quiet.

After seeing the person off, Shi Jinwei checked the messages in the community group.

It was quite lively inside.

Although I don't want to get involved with these people, I still have to collect the information I need to gather.

Shi Jinwei is willing to be a lone wolf, but she cannot live as an isolated island.

And as it turns out, having a large number of people does have its advantages; messages are scrolled through very quickly.

[Building 12, B201]: Luckily we left early, otherwise we would be stuck inside now.

[Building 2, C308]: Several families downstairs have moved out. Judging from the current situation, the water level is still rising. What should we do now? Can the leaders help us think of a solution? @Group Admin

[Building 6, A1402]: Upstairs, I advise you to think of a solution yourself. Look at this heavy rain, this floodwater, the official rescue efforts have stopped, what else can the community do?

[Building 9, B601]: Dear neighbors, does anyone have a lot of food? Could you sell me some? I've been working overtime these past few days, and I don't have much food at home. I wanted to go shopping during my holiday, but the supermarkets are all closed. I have absolutely nothing to eat. If I don't get something to eat soon, I'll starve to death.

[Building 1, C1101]: Does anyone have fever reducers? My child has a fever and needs fever reducers. I'm looking for something that costs money and is expensive.

After the next two messages were sent, the group fell silent instantly, but soon other people's messages overwhelmed theirs, and everyone continued their rambling chatter as if they hadn't seen them.

Some people are asking about the property management's investigation, and it seems that it's not just their community that's being investigated, but all the communities are doing so.

[Building 7, C702]: Do you think they can distribute supplies after their investigation?

[Building 8, Unit B902]: I don't know, but it's good that they have the idea.

Even at this point, many optimistic people still harbored illusions.

Shi Jinwei quietly read the messages from beginning to end, without saying a word.

By the tenth day, the torrential rain had not stopped, and there was still no rescue or supplies.

The internet was in an uproar, but the authorities remained silent.

Some families have stockpiled food and haven't felt any urgency.

However, most people do not have the habit of stockpiling food, and a food crisis has already occurred.

Fortunately, the water and electricity are still working, so people haven't completely given up hope.

That evening, while Shi Jinwei was watching the news, the lights in her house suddenly went out with a "pop".

All electrical appliances stopped working, and the city, which was originally illuminated by lights, was now pitch black.

The noisy environment was suddenly paused, and the whole world fell silent for a moment, then burst into an even louder sound as if it had rebounded.

Shi Jinwei had anticipated this, so she didn't panic and simply took out two candles and lit them.

My phone kept beeping with notifications, and when I opened it, I found it was a complete mess.

The reason is that after the power outage, someone contacted the power company immediately, only to find that the phone was unreachable.

I tried calling the property management company, but I couldn't get through.

The two places, which are staffed 24 hours a day, were suddenly unreachable, and a bad feeling spread in everyone's hearts.

But no one could give them an explanation.

In the middle of the night, most people in the city were too scared to sleep, and then they discovered that the internet had suddenly gone down.

Shi Jinwei had made thorough preparations, so she wasn't panicked and went to bed before 10 p.m.

I didn't find out the internet was down until someone knocked on the door in the morning.

She was woken up and was a little annoyed.

But when he saw two middle-aged men standing outside through the video doorbell, his mind instantly cleared.

Clearing her slightly hoarse voice from sleep, she didn't open the door: "Who is it?"

The person outside seemed relieved to hear someone was home: "Young lady, we're the residents downstairs. We can't get online right now, and the power's out, so we had to come knocking on the door to find you."

"What's wrong?" Upon hearing "internet outage," Shi Jinwei immediately took out her phone to check, and sure enough, a red cross appeared on the signal screen.

"Here's the thing, some families in our building are running out of food and want to go out and look for some. We're asking if you'd like to join us. If you do, please come downstairs and we'll go out together in a bit," the man explained patiently.

Shi Jinwei's heart skipped a beat. Should she go out to find supplies?

To be honest, she didn't want to go, but if she refused, it would inevitably make people suspect that she had hidden resources.

Thinking this, she brought up her husband again: "Brother, thank you for your kindness, but my husband went out early this morning, so I won't go."

The man wasn't angry about being rejected; instead, he focused on another question: "He went alone? Do you have a boat?"

"Oh no!" Shi Jinwei's heart skipped a beat; she had actually overlooked such an important issue.

With the internet out of service right now, it's quite strange to say that you can still contact the outside world.

Shi Jinwei's little brain worked quickly, and then a lightbulb went off in her head—she had an idea!

"No, but my husband's friend has a small kayak. They had arranged to go out today before the power went out last night, so I'm sorry, sir."

Shi Jinwei said apologetically, but her eyes were fixed on the expressions of the two men.

Unfortunately, no matter how clear the view window is, micro-expressions cannot be observed.

She could only see the two men exchange a silent glance: "Is that so? In that case, we apologize for disturbing you. But if you need anything, you can come find us in rooms 1202 and 1501."

"Okay, thank you." She thanked them repeatedly, and did not show herself until the two left.

About a minute later, there was a knock on the door upstairs, presumably someone had come up to give a pep talk.

Shi Jinwei didn't dare to delay and went straight out to open the security door.

The elevator was out of service, but she didn't take it lightly and locked the door.

She hesitated for a moment at the security door, first inserting the two bolts on the top and bottom of the door, and then using an iron bar to lock the handle so that people outside could not turn the handle.

Only after confirming that it was feasible did she lock the security door.

The doors were all expensive and sturdy, and Shi Jinwei felt that even if these people really wanted to break in, they would have to think twice.
