Chapter 6 Don't get in the car
Then Cen went upstairs, and when he passed by Qiao Lingxiang, he turned his head to look at her, and opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say hello to her.
Qiao Lingxiang immediately lowered her head.
Seeing this, Cen Yi could only close his mouth, walked past her, opened the door of the safe passage, and went back to his home directly.
When he went back, Qiao Lingxiang picked up her luggage and walked downstairs again.
She walked very slowly, and had to take a break after a few steps, but she still had more perseverance, stopped and stopped, and climbed to the first floor before her heart beat and exploded.
Qiao Lingxiang was thinking in her heart that in this situation, she could only live in the basement of the community.
In fact, the people living in this community basically had a good economic level before the end of the world, and they also pay attention to some sentiments, so the construction of the community is very good.
Under many small western-style buildings, there will be their own private basements. Some people's basements have been converted into a small warehouse. In addition to parking, some old furniture that has been eliminated will also be placed.
In the private basement of Qiao Lingxiang's house, there is a bed and a set of leather sofas. These things were expensive when they were bought, and they were not broken. It's just that in the past two years, before the end of the world, the economic conditions of Qiao's family were not bad. So Hou Manrong replaced all the half-old furniture that had been used at home for several years.
And this bed and sofa, if they were to be sold back then, they could be sold for five or six thousand yuan at a second-hand price.
Therefore, it would be a pity to just throw it away, so the furniture that was originally intended to be sold was piled up in the basement warehouse, and a pile was piled up after the end of the world.
Qiao Lingxiang thought about where to go, carried her luggage, and went down from the first floor to the lower first floor, panting again, and found the basement warehouse of her home, entered the password to open the rolling gate of the warehouse, and put all the luggage in the basement.
The environment in the warehouse is quite spacious. There are two cars of Qiao’s family parked, but they have been parked for a long time and are useless. There is a thick layer of dust on the car body.
It's not that I don't want to use it, but that energy is very tight now, and the Qiao family can't even afford to use electricity, let alone the oil that the car needs to burn.
The oil at the gas station is also exchanged for energy coupons.
There are several emergency lights in the warehouse that will be on all year round, so it's not the kind of black that you can't see your fingers.
Qiao Lingxiang sat silently in this dimly lit basement warehouse for a long time by herself. Her stomach was growling with hunger, but she didn't have a bite to eat, so she could only rub her aching stomach and listened. In this silent basement, there was no sound except for her stomach growling.
After the apocalypse, many people's lives are not as good as before. Not only the Qiao family doesn't have a car, but many people don't have extra energy coupons, so they can afford to drive a private car.
When people go out, they mostly walk, ride bicycles, or squeeze buses.
This underground garage was abandoned by humans just like that.
Just like Qiao Ayaka, she now feels like a fat mouse living in the dark, no matter where she goes, she doesn't wait to see her.
Her heart felt overwhelmingly uncomfortable, just staying in the quiet basement warehouse, hungry, curled up on the sofa, feeling that she was living like the most insignificant fat kid in hell.
Maybe he died in such a silent place, and no one will know for a long time.
On the next morning, Qiao Lingxiang, who fell asleep at some time, was woken up by the alarm clock of her mobile phone. She hurriedly got up from the sofa, took her schoolbag, shook her fat, and went out from the basement to the bus stop. The bus goes to school.
She woke up a little early. Since noon yesterday, Qiao Lingxiang didn't eat a single grain of rice, let alone breakfast in the morning, so her stomach was hurting all the time. There was a long queue.
Now everyone doesn’t drive their own cars, and many people have switched to buses, so every bus is very congested. In order to catch the bus, many people deliberately wake up very early.
But everyone thinks so.
So from very early on, the bus station began to be congested. Although the city administrators increased the number of buses as much as possible in order to maintain stability, every bus was still crowded with people.
The bus is like this, not to mention the subway station, there is no need to go there, and when there are too many people, you can only see a crowd of people.
Qiao Lingxiang clutched her stomach, and followed the flow of people limply. Everyone tried their best to maintain order and lined up to get on the bus.
I just waited for several full buses to pass by, and when it was Qiao Lingxiang's turn to get on the bus, someone crowded by the door shouted at her,
Don't get in the car, you are so big, you can't squeeze you in at all, the ones in the back, come three more!
Qiao Lingxiang raised her head in a daze, and looked at the three slender people behind her, who ran up from behind her, quickly jumped into the car, and stood at the door of the car.
Indeed, if she gets on the bus, she can only get on her, and if she gets on someone else, she can get on three
She clutched her stomach, her lips were trembling with anger, she lowered her head and took out the mobile phone in her school uniform pocket, and looked at the time on the mobile phone, because it took too much time to wait for the bus, if she continued to dawdle, she would be late for class up.
I also saw people at the bus station winking and smiling at her, their eyes full of absurdity, as if they were amazed, how could there be such a fat person in such an out-of-this-world world?
That was a miracle too.
For such eyes, Qiao Lingxiang has experienced since she was a child, but she seems to never be able to get used to such ridicule. She can always feel a little embarrassment and inferiority in the mocking eyes around her.
Negative emotions are stretched into a string, and the string is getting tighter and tighter.
Qiao Lingxiang lowered her eyes, and slowly calmed down her anger. At this time, she didn't wait for the bus at all, and walked directly to school.
From her community to Xiangcheng Middle School, it takes about ten minutes by car. If she walks, at Qiao Lingxiang's pace of taking three breaths, she can walk for an hour to the school, which is considered pretty good.
In addition, she hasn't eaten since noon yesterday, and her stomach hurts again this morning, so before Qiao Lingxiang walked past a bus stop, she sat down tiredly on a bench on the sidewalk.
Just think to yourself, if you are late, you will be late, anyway, her grades are not good, and the reason why she still insists on going to school now is mainly because Xiangcheng Middle School still provides students with three meals a day.
Although the three meals a day are mixed with a lot of water.
I saw a group of boys wearing Xiangcheng junior and high school uniforms walking over with a smile. Since yesterday, they have all been driven home by the school to go to school. This morning they couldn’t get on the bus, so they flocked The group started to go to Xiangcheng Middle School.
All of them are high-spirited and brisk, full of vitality in the early morning of Xiangcheng.
