Chapter 1123 Heart Disease
The originally tiny gap was now completely sealed, tightly fitting, without leaving even the slightest space for someone to get in.
This effectively blocks off a potential location that could be used by criminals to commit crimes.
Li Luo stood at the end of the street, looking at the "masterpiece" he had just completed, exhaled lightly, and smiled with satisfaction.
But she knew in her heart that this was far from enough and there was still more to be done.
So, without any hesitation or stop, she turned around decisively and walked quickly towards the next street.
The night wind whistled and blew up the corners of Li Luo's clothes. Under the cold moonlight, her figure looked so lonely yet extremely determined.
As the night deepened, the entire Jinling base seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep.
However, this is no ordinary night.
With the arrival of eternal night, the daytime has been swallowed up by endless darkness, and the sunshine of the past has become an unreachable memory.
Nowadays, in order to maintain the normal operation of the base, we can only rely on lights to replace the sunlight that should be shining, which undoubtedly greatly increases the electricity consumption of the entire base.
What’s more, the disappearance of the sun rendered all the solar power generation equipment installed in the base “scrapped”.
Fortunately, Jinling Base had already started preparing for the construction of a hydroelectric power station at the very beginning of its construction.
After a long period of hard work, it is now nearing completion and will be put into use soon.
However, during this critical transition period, the electricity situation remains very urgent.
Therefore, in order to maximize power conservation, the base made a difficult decision:
After 9 o'clock every night, turn off the main power switch in the base.
So, at this moment, the entire Jinling base was like being dragged into a bottomless black hole by an extremely huge black hand, and fell into a thick and indissoluble darkness.
Without the illumination of lights, the buildings on both sides of the street seemed to have lost their vitality, standing there like huge silent monsters.
The usually bustling night market has become silent at this time, with only the occasional sound of wind blowing through the empty streets, making a low whistle, as if telling the sadness of the end of the world.
The street was eerily quiet, with only Li Luo's footsteps echoing in the silence.
But in this boundless darkness, there is a small area with a light that is out of tune with the surroundings.
They were some people living in the villa area of the base. They had installed their own power generation facilities at home, so the power outage at the base had no impact on them at all.
However, such families are rare after all.
After all, the space in residential buildings is limited, and if you want to install power generation facilities, you must first have enough space.
The spacious space in the villa area makes it possible to install these facilities.
Li Luo looked up at the sky. There were no stars, no moon, only a despairing darkness.
She sighed, hoping that the eternal night would end soon.
After completing the search of another block, Li Luo came to a small courtyard located in a remote corner of the street.
The small courtyard is surrounded by dead branches and rotten leaves, the walls are a bit mottled, and the traces of time are clearly visible.
The gate to the courtyard was closed and the surroundings were pitch black without any light, as if it had been completely soaked in thick ink.
Li Luo suddenly felt that this place looked familiar, so he subconsciously looked towards the courtyard.
I saw that the yard was full of all kinds of debris.
A tattered wooden chair was leaning casually against the wall, and in the corner there were a few abandoned flower pots, the flowers and plants in them had long since withered.
There were some scraps of paper scattered on the ground, fluttering in the wind.
As Li Luo continued to look inside, she saw the scene inside the house.
There were a lot of groceries in the house, and the various goods were dazzling but seemed messy.
The shelves against the wall are filled with daily necessities, including toothpaste, toothbrushes, towels, etc.
There were several boxes of drinks and snacks piled on the ground, and some of the cartons showed signs of damage.
On the table in the middle of the room stood an old-fashioned radio, next to a pile of account books and pens.
When Li Luo glanced at the people in several rooms one by one, she suddenly felt a sense of familiarity.
This……
Isn’t this the family of four that she witnessed being brutally murdered during the Eternal Night in her previous life!
After recognizing them, Li Luo's thoughts were instantly drawn back to those painful memories.
She seemed to see again the tragic scene of the family of four lying in a pool of blood, their wide-open eyes filled with fear and unwillingness, and they died with their eyes open.
Although Li Luo experienced many ups and downs later, he still broke out in a cold sweat whenever he recalled that scene.
The tragedy, which she witnessed in its entirety, was like a nightmare and a source of worry to her, following her everywhere and unable to be shaken off.
"No, we must not let such a tragedy happen again this time!" Li Luo swore secretly in his heart.
She bit her lip, trying to calm her agitated emotions.
After all, he had lived two lives, so Li Luo adjusted his mindset quickly.
In this life, since fate has brought her across their family of four again, she cannot sit idly by no matter what. She must help this family and prevent the tragedy of her previous life from happening again.
It was to help them, and also to help herself get over this worry.
After making up his mind, Li Luo looked around and imprinted the location of the courtyard deeply in his mind.
She planned to visit the family again after daybreak and try to remind them or provide some practical help.
But how should she remind them?
After all, she had never seen the faces of that group of people in her previous life.
Li Luo frowned and fell into deep thought.
Should we directly tell them about the dangers they may encounter in the future?
But if they do this, won’t they think they are meddling in other people’s business and are a pessimist?
Or do you feel you have ulterior motives?
Or use subtle hints?
But what if they don’t understand the key? Wouldn’t it be a waste of effort?
Or through some clever arrangements, can they avoid danger without knowing it?
But she had no idea what to do specifically.
The most important thing is that this life has undergone tremendous changes compared to the previous life. Will the catastrophe that will kill them come again?
Countless questions were swirling in her mind, like a tangled mess that could not be cut or sorted out.
Li Luo felt upset for a while, but she knew that she must never let this family repeat the mistakes of the previous life.
Just as Li Luo was thinking about how to help that family, a very faint rustling sound suddenly came from the end of the quiet street.
The sound was like that of spring silkworms chewing mulberry leaves in the dark night, so soft and subtle that if Li Luo had not been always alert and fully focused at this moment, he would have hardly noticed it.
