March 31th, 2030.
There is only one day left before the end of the world.
Arthur has prepared most of the supplies needed for the apocalypse. What remains is to sneak into the major warehouses, plunder all the supplies in the warehouses, and make final preparations.
Before entering the warehouses, Arthur had obtained the locations of several large warehouses, hidden entrances, and surveillance routes given by Oliver.
All I need is to take a good rest and get enough energy.
At midnight, moonlight shone on the ground. Arthur puts on a helmet, rides on a motorcycle prepared in advance, and starts the way to the major warehouses.
General shopping malls and supermarkets basically start to close one after another after 11 o'clock in the evening. In addition, today is Sunday and many people have to go to work in the morning, so there are few pedestrians on the street at midnight.
This makes it more convenient for him to rob the warehouses.
The first thing Arthur targeted was the largest local chain supermarket, Ginsberg Supermarket.
Ginsberg Supermarket has the most types of goods in the city, from precious jewelry to fruits and vegetables.
Its daily enter/exit count exceeds 50,000 people, and it supplies rations for 30% of the city's population every day, and there are ten million people in Los Angeles.
Its storage capacity is an astonishing number.
Arthur followed the blueprint and entered the warehouse from the hidden entrance.
He began to plunder supplies unscrupulously.
First of all and the most important resource, which is food.
Ginsberg Supermarket supplies food for millions of people every day, and the food stored in the warehouse is in tons.
Arthur came to the Cold Storage Area.
There are all kinds of frozen meats piled up here, chicken wings, chicken legs, meat balls...
"There are dozens of tons!" Arthur accepted them all without any hesitation.
Then he came to the Fresh Meat Area.
Beef, mutton, pork... were also dumped into his bags.
Remember that during the outbreak, the temperature was more than 60 degrees, and the stored meat in major supermarkets and meat processing plants were all deteriorated and stinked.
Even though the tastes were weird, it still caused countless people to scramble.
Fresh pork is simply a dream.
In terms of Aquatic Products, there are shrimps, crayfish, grass carp, mandarin fish, sea bass, as well as big green lobster, and king crab... dozens of tons!
Arthur was envious because in his previous life, there was a global drought, and almost all the inland rivers dried up.
If anyone had a crayfish, I'm afraid that even the top influencers would beg to have dinner with them. Arthur thought.
Eating only meat but no vegetables will lead to constipation and bad breath.
So vegetables are also necessary.
Cabbage, tomatoes, leeks, and his favorite potatoes and green peppers... a few tons were collected by Arthur.
Staple food is indispensable.
Rice, flour, rice noodles, noodles, alkaline cakes, dumplings... hundreds of tons were also taken by Arthur.
The food problem is solved now.
Arthur went to look at the Drinks Area.
How can you drink only water in the end of the world? Iced happy water is extremely indispensable for a teenager like Arthur.
Coca-Cola, Pepsi, Sprite, Schweppes... and various brands of red wine. It is roughly estimated that there are a hundred million bottles here!
Enough for him to drink until the apocalypse ends.
At the time during the outbreak in his previous life, Arthur was extremely envious of the people who can drink iced drinks during the blazing hot days.
And now he has already collected abundant necessary food resources.
No one knows how long the apocalypse would last, so I had to eat some snacks.
Popcorns, potato chips are the most convenient to store.
After plundering all the food, Arthur went to look at other daily necessities, like towels, toothbrushes, facial cleansers…
"This lace underwear..."
Arthur was going to buy himself a few pairs of underwear, and found that the box next to him was full of black silk and white silk.
Just keep it. What if I need to hire a few maids at that time? I can't cook by myself every day.
I should get more.
There are also pots and pans. And even an enormous bed that can accommodate 10 people without being crowded!
Arthur literally just swallowed everything he saw in Ginsberg Supermarket.
After dealing with Ginsberg, Arthur continued to the next address, sneaked in in the same way, knocked out the security guards, and looted supplies.
After around 3 hours.
Arthur looted all the large warehouses in the city, with a total of more than 10 billion supplies.
As long as it can be seen on the market, he basically has it.
After everything was done, it was already 4 o'clock in the morning.
There are less than 8 hours left before the end of the world, and I need to get back to the cold storage.
Arthur locked the doors and windows, took out a set of daily necessities from his space ability room that nearly exploded due to the large amount of stuff that Arthur had put in, and arranged his own cold storage.
Bed, duvet, TV, computer, PS5 game console, table, chairs...
This place is like a complete confident home, and Arthur is extremely pleased to live here for at least a month.
After a tiring early morning, Arthur was a little sleepy. He set the opening time for the cold storage facilities and fell asleep with Lmiu in his arms.
2030, April 1st, Monday!
The weather was sunny, the temperature was 15℃, and people wore coats and dragged their tired bodies to work as usual.
At the same time, the morning news also reported a major theft case. Five large warehouses in the city, with more than 10 billion goods, were all stolen overnight.
[The method of committing the crime was extremely strange.
The police are investigating and have not found any clues yet.
Some people who got up early to go to the supermarket to buy vegetables were cursing.] said the news reporter. "The vegetables are gone, what are we going to eat today?"
At the same time, there was another news report on TV.
[It is expected that at 12 noon, 100 million kilometers away from the blue star, two large planets may collide. People will feel a brief flash at that time. Please don't panic...]
However, this news did not attract much attention.
Time passed little by little.
Arthur slept soundly on the big bed and ignored all this.
-2030/April 1st/12:00-
When everyone was thinking about what to eat for lunch, a white light suddenly flashed across the sky. This light was so dazzling that it made the sky, which was originally bright during the day, impossible to see directly with the naked eye.
"F:)k, what's going on? Lightning in the daytime?"
"This lightning is not only 240V, how come it was so flashing?"
"Idiot, didn't you watch the news? This is the light emitted by the collision of two large planets."
"Oh, does this have anything to do with my monthly salary of 3,000?"
Basically no one took this seriously, because there was such news before, so they just treated it with a mentality of watching the fun.
However, a few minutes later, the world began to change.
"What the f:/k is going on? Why is it suddenly so hot? Didn't the weather forecast say that the highest temperature today is 15℃? I'm wearing a sweater."
"It's getting hotter and hotter. It must be more than 40 degrees. I feel like I'm going to get heatstroke!"
"The news said that it might be related to the light just now. It will be fine in a while."
The weather is getting hotter and hotter. It's obviously April, but it's hotter than August.
Pedestrians on the street, no matter men and women, can't help but take off their clothes, trying to reduce some of the stuffiness.
