Quick Transmigration: Striving Every Day to Overcome Tribulation

Chapter 240: Striving for Survival Amidst Natural Disasters (Part 1)

The original owner ran a supermarket. The store was not large, but it had everything you needed, including daily necessities, fresh fruits and vegetables, grains and oils.

Behind the supermarket was a spacious warehouse filled with all kinds of goods, all of which were the result of the original owner spending all his savings.

Not long after the original owner opened the supermarket, before it had even officially opened for business, it had been drizzling for several weeks in a row.

The raindrops pattered against the window, and also touched the heart of the original owner, causing a nameless unease to quietly arise.

Based on her years of life experience and keen intuition, she had a bad feeling and took decisive action, increasing her stockpiling efforts.

She contacted suppliers everywhere and purchased large quantities of daily necessities at any cost.

However, no one expected that the calm drizzle would suddenly change overnight.

A fierce wind, accompanied by torrential rain, surged in like a ferocious beast. Large raindrops pelted the earth, and the world seemed to be shrouded in a thick curtain of rain.

The floodwaters raged, with turbid waves rolling in and swallowing streets and houses, leaving devastation in their wake.

Immediately afterwards, the National Weather Service issued an emergency warning, forecasting continuous heavy rains for the next few months, urging the public to stock up on supplies and avoid going out unnecessarily.

Looking at the raging flood outside the window, the original owner made a decisive move. Just as the floodwaters were about to reach the supermarket entrance, he quickly and tightly closed the supermarket doors and reinforced them with sandbags and other heavy objects.

Afterwards, she rushed to the warehouse and carefully checked every protective measure. She locked the warehouse doors and windows and covered the goods with waterproof cloth to prevent them from getting damp and damaged.

After everything was arranged, the original owner stood in the warehouse, looking at the mountain of goods, but felt no relief whatsoever.

She knew all too well how precious these supplies were in the face of such an extreme disaster, and she couldn't help but worry.

With so many goods, won't someone spy on us?

If someone with ill intentions targets you, how can you protect yourself by yourself?

This worry weighed heavily on her heart like a stone, causing her to furrow her brow and remain troubled for a long time.

However, this worry only lasted one night before fate dealt the original owner a heavy blow, freeing her from the worry of her goods being coveted. But the price of this relief was far too painful.

The original owner tossed and turned, his mind filled with all sorts of dangerous scenarios, and finally managed to drift off to sleep at the break of dawn.

When she woke up in the morning, she walked sleepily toward the warehouse to check the goods. The sight before her made her freeze in place, her mind going blank.

The warehouses and supermarkets that were once full are now completely empty.

Yesterday's mountains of goods, including boxes of drinking water, bags of rice and flour, and a dazzling array of daily necessities, have all vanished without a trace.

The ground was spotless, not even a plastic bag was left behind.

The original owner forced herself to calm down. She knew that panicking at this moment was useless, and she had to find out the truth of the matter as soon as possible.

She rushed to the monitoring room, hoping to find some clues from the surveillance footage.

However, when she checked the surveillance footage, she discovered that the system had malfunctioned during a critical period, displaying only static. By the time the surveillance was restored, everything in the warehouse and supermarket had vanished.

The original owner was full of doubts and couldn't figure out what was going on.

Even more bizarrely, after that, whenever she finally found some food, if she left it for more than five minutes, or even just left it for a short while, the food would disappear as if by magic when she came back.

She began to wonder if she was trapped in a nightmare from which she could not wake up, but each disappointment and fear felt so real that the successive blows plunged her into deep despair and helplessness.

Every time she finally found food, she could only wolf it down, afraid that if she delayed even slightly, the food would disappear.

Even so, the floodwaters remained an insurmountable barrier, stubbornly blocking her path.

The turbid, surging waves roared all around her, and there was nowhere safe for her to go.

In this isolated and helpless moment, the original owner not only had to fight against hunger and floods, but also had to be on guard against those with ill intentions.

She huddled in the small corner of the supermarket, listening intently to any sounds outside; the slightest disturbance would put her on edge.

Despite her desperate struggle to survive, she ultimately succumbed to hunger and starved to death, never living to see the floodwaters recede.

Su Su slowly withdrew from the original owner's memories and looked up at the light rain outside the window.

After only a moment's thought, she made a decisive decision and quickly ordered the supermarket to close.

Immediately afterwards, he swiftly and decisively stored all the food into his own space, without the slightest hesitation.

"Qiqi, set the location of that system to the septic tank in the suburbs." Su Su's voice was calm and steady.

"Received, received! Hehehe."

Qi Qi's cheerful response rang in my ears, and she immediately got busy following Su Su's instructions.

The original owner never understood how his mountain of food had vanished completely in just a few minutes until his death.

She was filled with fear and even thought that she had accidentally offended the gods and spirits, which had brought such a disaster upon her.

So much so that while searching for food, they didn't forget to find incense to worship the ghosts and gods, asking for their forgiveness.

But Su Su, who had examined the timeline of fate, knew perfectly well that the female protagonist of this small world, Wang Yun, was bound to a daily check-in system. Wang Yun was bound to a daily check-in system, which was her "survival cheat code."

Every morning when Wang Yun wakes up, he only needs to check in easily, and the system will generously reward him with food.

In this way, she wouldn't have to risk her life to find food during natural disasters like others, nor would she have to suffer from hunger.

But Wang Yun didn't know how to cherish the food that he got so easily.

She felt that she received so much food from checking in that it didn't matter if she wasted some, and she never even thought about asking the system to stop giving out rewards.

When she encountered food that didn't suit her taste, she would only take a few bites before throwing it into the trash can without hesitation.

In her eyes, since there was always a steady supply of food, there was no need to worry about it.

But this natural disaster was far more complex and cruel than imagined.

Besides the periodic floods and torrential rains, cold weather followed after the rain stopped.

The original owner had exhausted all strength and hope in the flood, and now he had to face this biting cold.

The check-in system, not content with plundering the original owner's food, shifted its focus to all the winter supplies.

Several vengeful spirits emerged, contributing to the heroine's happy life.
