Chapter 12 The Natural Disaster Officially ArrivesThe first call didn't connect, but the second one did, and a deep, magnetic male voice came through."Xiao Yu".Su Xiaoyu was taken aback at first, then asked, "Brother Gu, did the potion I gave you produce any results?""The results I received this morning indicate it's a viral inhibitor, but we still need to continue analyzing and researching the others." Gu Lingxiao looked at the receipt in her hand. That bottle of medicine was no ordinary one; it was likely an antidote for some kind of terrible virus.I recalled receiving news that foreign countries were preparing to release large quantities of various viruses in order to occupy China.The project was put on hold due to the weather. Perhaps the medicine is related to the virus. Thinking of the pharmaceutical factory of the Su Group, his eyes narrowed into slits. They were actually making money in China while acting as lackeys for foreign countries. Who gave them the audacity!Su Xiaoyu suspected that the deaths of the original owner's parents were mostly related to this potion. The group had completely gone bankrupt, and now, whenever she opened the website, news about the Su Group would pop up from time to time.The group's resources have been divided up by several major groups, and even the building has been put up for auction.As for those few scumbags, they had no money, no power, and were drowning in debt. When natural disasters struck, it was truly hell on earth for them, so instead of killing them, the plan was to let them fend for themselves in that hellish environment.If they can still live a prosperous life without money or power, then send them to their deaths personally!Gu Lingxiao noticed that there was no sound coming from her phone and was about to ask when the phone on the table rang.He picked up the phone and listened to the conversation; his face darkened considerably. He received confirmation that the temperature would rise further tomorrow.And there's no sign of the temperature dropping; conservatively estimated, it could reach over 60 degrees Celsius, which is extremely serious. Especially for those with chronic illnesses, how can they survive in such high temperatures?"Little Yu'er, remember what I'm about to say.""you say.""Stock up on as many supplies as possible at home—water, food, clothes, as much as you can. I live upstairs from you; the door code is 210655. There are quite a few things stored inside; you can take them if you need them.""I can't accept this. I came to you to buy some medicine. Do you have a reliable person you can recommend? I'd like to stock up on some.""I'll send it to you on WeChat. Just tell him what you need and let him know that I introduced you."Gu Lingxiao also needs to notify others that they must end the chat first.Su Xiaoyu stood at the window. If it weren't for the ice blocks placed in all four corners of the room, she wouldn't have been able to stand there so easily.The ambulance downstairs was surrounded by people in layers.Even if you can't hear them, you can guess what they're talking about. Because of the hot weather, everyone's body is overloaded every day, whether it's the elderly, children, or young people.Some elderly people have fallen asleep and never woken up again. By the time their families found them, their bodies were already cold. This has happened several times in several buildings.You can dial the phone number sent by Gu Lingxiao on WeChat.The call was quickly answered, and a cheerful male voice came from the other end."Hello.""I am Gu Lingxiao's friend. He asked me to buy medicine from you.""Hmm, tell me, what do you need?" Bai Muhanlooked at the number on his phone, wondering what relationship this person had with Gu Lingxiao that made him need to use his connections."Cold medicine, antibiotics, blood pressure medication, and all sorts of anti-inflammatory drugs. I need 200,000 sets of protective suits, plus a large quantity of N95 masks. I need as many as you have; I need a lot. How much stock do you have?""You want such a wide variety! Just tell me how much you want!""12 million. If possible, I'd like all the common medicines available, but I'm afraid you don't have that many." Su Xiaoyu said, then waited for a reply.Bai Muhan gasped. He had thought the other party would only want medicine worth a few tens of thousands of yuan at most, but they wanted over 10 million. To be on the safe side, he quickly asked..."You're not kidding, are you?""I can transfer the money first. When will the medicine be delivered?" Su Xiaoyu was already used to this tone; she had encountered it too many times these days. Then she thought of the surgical equipment. "By the way, could you provide me with some surgical equipment?"Bai Muhan thought for a moment and said, "With so many medicines, I need to make some more contacts. Call me in two hours.""Okay." Su Xiaoyu said and hung up the phone immediately.There was a knocking sound at the door.Su Xiaoyu frowned. Who could be coming at this time?As she opened the door, a beautiful young woman rushed towards her and hugged her tightly.Lin Xiuxiu slowly released her hands, reluctant to let go. She knew that if she continued to hug her, Xiaoyu would definitely get angry.Why is Su Xiaoyu a woman? If she were a man, he would cling to her no matter what, even if she married someone else, he would still take care of her during her postpartum period."Xiu! What brings you here?" Su Xiaoyu closed the door.The original owner's best friend, Lin Xiuxiu, would have killed her long ago in the extreme heat if it weren't for her help.Therefore, she specially sent Lin Xiuxiu a lot of packages, including rice, flour, various clothes, shoes and cosmetics, just to keep her at home.After all, outsiders might not recognize her, but how could her best friend not recognize her?The original owner found out she was a girl because of the stains on her pants from her first period. Lin Xiuxiu happened to notice and took her to a clinic near the school, whereupon she discovered the secret of her female identity.The original owner never attended kindergarten; instead, she went directly to primary school when she reached the appropriate age. Because she lived nearby and had a severe case of mysophobia (obsessive-compulsive disorder) about cleanliness, she never used a toilet... and had no idea about the differences between boys and girls.Lin Xiuxiu felt the room was very cool and then noticed that there were four large basins on the wall, all filled with ice.Two air conditioners were running continuously; they were obviously the expensive kind, high-end and classy."How come your air conditioner is still working? The dorm's air conditioner hasn't been working for ages, it's unbearably hot every day. And where did you get the ice?"Su Xiaoyu moved to the side, wanting to keep her distance."Didn't I send you a lot of packages? The weather is getting hotter and hotter, why aren't you at home and instead coming to see me?"Lin Xiuxiu's smile vanished. "What, you're not happy that I came to see you? Do you hate me now?""No, it's just that the weather has been too hot lately, and I haven't been in the mood to chat with anyone." Su Xiaoyu thought for a moment, then stood up, went to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and took out a few ice creams.Lin Xiuxiu was overjoyed to see the ice cream. She immediately took it and ate it with a spoon, finally feeling refreshed.Seeing the large bag on the ground, Su Xiaoyuhad a pretty good idea of ​​what was going on. It seemed that no matter what, the plot couldn't be changed.Lin Xiuxiu sacrificed a lot for the original owner in her previous life, even being raped in exchange for supplies. This is what the original owner saw after she died and became a ghost. She didn't even want to recall that scene; it was just too tragic.Driven mad by the original owner's death, Lin Xiuxiu leaped from the sixth floor, clutching her body, thus ending her life.The original owner chose death because he couldn't face Lin Xiuxiu's sacrifice, and he couldn't accept experiencing another natural disaster. Otherwise, he wouldn't have chosen to take his own life.After eating a large cup of ice cream, Lin Xiuxiulooked around. In addition to two high-end air conditioners, the sofa in the room had also been replaced with a very comfortable one that could easily accommodate two people lying down at the same time.There was a large 58-inch TV on the wall, a water dispenser in the corner, and when I got to the master bedroom door, I saw that there was a double bed and some small decorations."Your place has changed so much!"
