Chapter 77 Danger in Dense Fog

But after a few days, the thick fog still showed no sign of dissipating, causing some people to panic.

Some people are worried that there are harmful substances in the thick fog, and they dare not even go out of their homes.

Just a few days later, an announcement was updated in the base's software.

The content of the announcement is about dense fog. The base did not detect harmful substances in the dense fog, but the dense fog affects the line of sight. It is recommended that everyone avoid going out.

But it's impossible not to go out. Not everyone has food and drink at home.

Although the base software can purchase supplies, not everyone has extra points to deliver them to their door.

Besides, the points will be used up if you don’t go out, and you will still have to go out then.

Whether they live in a dormitory or rent a house by themselves, they have to work hard to earn points so that they can support their families and themselves.

If you really don't go out or work, you don't know what dangers the dense fog will bring, but you will definitely starve to death or thirst to death first.

The base also understood this truth, so it issued a second announcement immediately afterwards, this time the content was about recruitment.

The base needs to urgently install street lights, one every three meters. Although the lighting cannot be very clear, it is better than nothing.

The base is so big that the number of street lights to be installed is not a small number, so a lot of people were recruited this time.

Many people who are unemployed are signing up below, fearing that they will not get their turn if they are late.

Jiang Li still praised the base's approach. It not only solved the line of sight problem, but also solved the livelihood problem of some people.

However, Jiang Li has no intention of signing up. She is not short of points or food. He is chatting with Gu Jin now, and Gu Jin and the others have no intention of signing up.

Jiang Li: The base is so big. Even if we only install street lights on the main roads, it would still require a lot of street lights. Where can we get so many street lights in the base?

Gu Jin: You rarely go out, so you don’t know much about it. In fact, people from the base have been going out to look for supplies. Although the earthquake destroyed many buildings, there are still many useful things in the ruins.

When people in the base go out, even if they don't find anything to eat, they will collect things if they can, and then transport them back and sell them to the base in exchange for points.

After the base receives the items, specialized personnel will perform maintenance. This is probably how this batch of street lights came from.

Jiang Li thought about it and found that he had indeed seen it in the service center before, but Jiang Li had no interest in picking up garbage, so he didn't take it to heart.

The white fog has not dissipated, and the hours of darkness are getting longer and longer. After dark, it is even harder to see outside. Even under street lights, the visibility is much smaller than during the day.

This endless white fog not only blocks people's sight and affects people's travel, but also gives opportunities to snakes, insects, rats and ants.

They travel through the thick fog, gather together silently, and then attack humans.

So everyone doesn't go out if they can, for fear of encountering danger in the thick fog.

Some of the street lights that were installed earlier have already been turned on. Although there is no sun and solar power cannot be used, the base is not short of power for the time being.

You can use wind, water, etc. to generate electricity, and there is always a way to maintain the operation of the base.

Now the temperature is neither cold nor hot, and no one uses high-power electrical appliances. More importantly, the electricity bill is not cheap. Under this situation, everyone saves as much as they can and doesn't use it if they can. The pressure on the base is also

Much less.

However, the demand for electricity in plantations is much greater. Plants need sunlight to grow, and now they can only use lights to act as the sun.

What matters in the plantation is food for everyone. This electricity still needs to be used and cannot be saved.

The thick fog also brings darkness in people's hearts.

Although Jiang Li didn't go out these days, he got some news from Captain Wang.

Many people were robbed during this period, and the thick fog served as the best cover for criminals.

Under the cover of thick fog, they hid on the only way people could pass by, and suddenly ran out without any warning. When others didn't react, they grabbed things and ran away.

The people who were robbed wanted to chase, but those people had already run into the thick fog. They didn't know which direction to pursue, so they had to give up in the end.

There are also those who react quickly and catch up with the opponent, but not only do they fail to get the things back, but they may also be beaten.

In short, things like this happen all the time in the base, and the security team can't do anything about it even if they want to, and they can't find the suspect.

So we are working overtime on the street lights, day and night.

At the same time, the base also calls on everyone to reduce travel. Even if you go out, it is best to travel in groups. Try not to let yourself be alone to reduce the possibility of crime.

It was at this time that Gu Jin proposed that Jiang Li move over to live with them. There were many people there and there were many rooms. It would be easier for them to take care of each other when they moved there. Jiang Li was alone and Gu Jin was worried.

Jiang Li thought about it and it was not impossible, so he agreed. There would be many disasters in the future, and it would be inconvenient for two people to rush back and forth.

Gu Jin came over to help Jiang Li pack his things. Although the house belonged to Jiang Li, there was no chance that anyone would break in after moving out. It would not be good if he saw the decoration in Jiang Li's room.

And some things can be reused, so of course they have to be taken away.

The two people put away all the floors again. The floors can be reused. The wallpaper on the walls is disposable and will be scrapped after being removed. Fortunately, Jiang Li still has a lot of space, so he doesn't feel bad at all.

The curtains in the room and the iron gate at the door also had to be removed. It took Jiang Li a long time to do this alone, but it was much faster with two people.

Jiang Li also replaced the lock core of the previous door. The previous one has always been placed in Jiang Li's space and has not been thrown away.

After putting all the things into the space and making sure there was nothing wrong, Jiang Li followed Gu Jin and left.

Anyway, there is thick fog now, and people don’t know when you moved, so the two of them walked downstairs empty-handed.

Although the base said that there were no harmful substances in the thick fog, Jiang Li still went out wearing a mask.

The two were walking hand in hand on the road. The visibility outside was very low because the small building on Jiang Li's side was relatively remote and the street lights from the base had not been installed yet. I didn't know if street lights would be installed here.

Halfway through, a figure suddenly rushed out, followed by a woman's voice shouting about robbery.

With quick eyes and hands, Jiang Li grabbed the man who just ran in front of Jiang Li. The man tried to break free and throw away Jiang Li's hand.

Gu Jin grabbed the man's arm, put his hands behind his back, and suppressed the man. Gu Jin was very strong and his arms were very powerful, so the man couldn't move even if he wanted to.

After a while, the woman behind him caught up with her. When Jiang Li saw it, he realized that it was He Shan. No wonder the voice just now sounded familiar.
