Transmigrated into the vicious female supporting role in the apocalyptic novel

Chapter 78 The people in Baicheng Base are so shameless that they actually came here to secretly blow up the sluice gate!
At this time, I saw Xiao Wu coming over with a large lotus leaf on his head. After he entered the house, he quickly closed the door, and only then did I feel relieved.

"Huh? The lotus leaves are ripe. Where did the explosion sound just now come from?" Xu Yuanjie took the lotus leaf from his hand and asked.

"I don't know! I was collecting lotus leaves just now when I heard a loud noise. I thought something happened nearby, but when I went out to check, there was nothing there." Xiao Wu muttered a few words.

The lotus leaf is very wide, which is more than enough to make lotus leaf chicken. It’s a pity that I can’t go out and make it using the most original method.

I think Qin Huan also has a way to make a home-made lotus leaf chicken. By the way, is it better to use fresh lotus leaves for lotus leaf chicken?
"I thought you were practicing cooking." Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows and said, thinking that what the big guy worried about always came true!
"How is that possible? I am now very skilled in using fire. Although stir-frying still has some difficulties, I am no longer afraid of stewing!" Xiao Wu raised his head proudly. He is no longer the Xiao Wu of the past, but Xiao Wu of the Niuhuru clan!

Okay, the kids nowadays are really good, at least much better than her. At least the kids have a few specialties, while she can only cook instant noodles!
She went to the kitchen and brought over a platter of braised food. The last time Qin Huan made a pot, she finished it in two days, so he often kept some in the refrigerator for her.

"Wow! This chicken foot is so beautiful!" Xiao Wu picked up a chicken foot. It smelled very fragrant and the color was also beautiful!

"It's delicious too! Wow, Qin Huan is really a man who thinks everything he cooks tastes good. If the apocalypse ends in the future, he and I will set up a small stall, and our business will be booming!" Xu Yuan said while gnawing on chicken feet.

"If you have some ambition, why not open a restaurant? Or a small stall?" Xiao Wu said speechlessly.

"So what? A small stall is also a dream, okay?" Xu Yuan rolled his eyes at Xiao Wu. The benefits of a small stall are something a little kid would never understand!

Suddenly, it became lively outside, and the broadcast notified everyone to gather in the square. Xu Yuan and Xiao Wu looked at each other, and both saw shock in each other's eyes.

This is the first time I've heard such a broadcast after being here for so long. It seems that the huge explosion just now was caused by something happening.

"It's so hot outside. I'll definitely get sunburned if I go out." Xu Yuan looked at the scorching sun outside and didn't want to go out at all.

"Why don't we go out with an umbrella?" Xiao Wu stood outside and watched many people go by. Even his eldest brother pushed his eldest son out!
It was so hot even with an umbrella! But there was nothing I could do, so I took an umbrella and went over. There were quite a few people gathered in the square, and they all had umbrellas.

This was distributed by the base because we are afraid that someone might faint from heatstroke due to the strong sun.

Soon, several women were pushed out and stood on a high platform with their hands tied. Everyone was confused and didn't know what was going on.

Aren't those the women from the White City base? Could they have been responsible for the explosion just now? But why were there only a few of them? Where were the others?

"Everyone, be quiet! Listen to me for a few words." The adjutant wearing glasses stood in the shade, holding a microphone to quiet the crowd.

However, they did not listen to him. Those people were still whispering, talking about what the women on the stage had done to be tied up.

"If you keep talking, take back your parasol." The man with glasses said coldly, and that made everyone shut up.

"Brother Dong is also on the stage. Could it be that he was the one who told the secret?" Xiao Wu sent a message to Xu Yuan on his mobile phone.

Since they are not allowed to speak, can we also not allow them to communicate on the phone?

"I don't think so. He still wants to cooperate with the people at Baicheng Base, so there's no way he'd go and tell on them." Xu Yuan looked at the sun in the sky. The temperature had been rising recently, and more places were using water. Even the water supply at this base was getting tight, let alone Baicheng Base.

I think these people were prepared to take the risk because of the weather, but they didn't expect to be caught.

"Do you see these people on the stage? They are all from the Baicheng base. They came to our base to blow up the power supply!" The man with glasses continued after seeing that everyone had quieted down.

"What will happen if the power outage is blown up?" someone asked. They didn't know about the power outage, so they asked.

"It will cause the water in our base to flow to the Baicheng base, and then we will have no water." The man with glasses said with a curled lip.

If it was just now, these people would definitely think that it had nothing to do with them, after all, it had nothing to do with them.

But when it comes to water resources, which are matters concerning their own interests, the people who had just been dismissive immediately became excited.

"What? They are here to steal our water!" someone asked anxiously.

"It can be said that the water supply in the base is barely enough now. If it is stolen by people from the Baicheng base, there will be a long-term water shortage." The man with glasses continued.

"No! How can we cut off the water supply? The weather is so hot now. We live in a makeshift shed and can only rely on cold water to keep cool. If we cut off the water supply, are we going to kill us?" Others followed suit.

The eyes of the women on the stage were filled with rage. It was obvious that this foundation was occupying all the water resources, and now they were blamed for coming to steal water?
They had enough water to water the houses, but the people over there were about to die of thirst!
"You occupy all the water resources, and you still have the nerve to speak so arrogantly!" The woman couldn't help but yelled at the man with glasses.

Even without a microphone, the woman's voice was still loud enough for everyone in the square to hear.

"What does she mean? The water resources are clearly ours, how can she say we have occupied them?" someone said unconvinced.

"The Baicheng base is downstream of us. As long as we don't release water, there will be no water below. In the past, they would pay us corresponding fees to let us open the sluice gates to release water, but since the end of the world, we have closed the sluice gates for our own survival." An insider sighed.

In the end times, everyone is selfish. There is only so much water resources, and people can’t even take care of themselves, so how can there be any extra to share with others?

"The people at Baicheng Base are so shameless that they actually came here to secretly blow up the sluice gate!" someone shouted indignantly.

If the people from Baicheng Base came here to steal supplies, no one would say anything. After all, the extra supplies were with the leaders and had nothing to do with them!

But water resources are different. They can use water unlimitedly now because they control the water source here. If the water source is distributed to others, how can they use the water?

"Are you just going to watch everyone in our base die? We are all human beings. We finally escaped from the pile of zombies!" said the woman with tears in her eyes.
