Cave Refuge-Chapter 211 - 210 Simple and Unpretentious Wish_1

The three-day sun showers had little impact on the official Refuge Centers, however, it was a disaster for some of the private sanctuaries established outside the City Center.

The reason behind it is quite simple—the ordinary private sanctuaries only had one entrance and exit, regardless of how well the drainage measures were carried out in these sanctuaries.

In order to ensure air circulation, private sanctuaries could not completely seal off the only entrance and exit, and so inevitably rainwater would leak inside during the continuous downpour.

Although the amount of rainwater seeping into the shelters was not much, the high-temperature rainwater would inevitably raise the temperature inside the underground sanctuaries.

The temperature inside the private sanctuaries was already higher than that of the official ones, and with the addition of the heat brought by the rainwater, survivors living in private sanctuaries felt as if they were inside a sauna. Short-term exposure wouldn’t cause much problem, but long-term exposure to such heat would be unbearable for ordinary people.

Since the arrival of the extreme heat disaster, the quantity of survivors dying due to the gradually increasing outdoor temperatures was not too high.

However, the number of survivors who died of hyperthermia after the three days of sun showers was several times more than those of the extreme heat disaster.

Fortunately, the sun showers only lasted for three days and didn’t transform into a new disaster, even though the outdoor temperature rose again after the rain stopped.

But when the rainwater stopped seeping into the underground sanctuaries, the temperature inside them began to decrease.

After confirming all this, the remaining survivors finally heaved a sigh of relief.

After the rain stopped, Dong Tianyu also drove his black car to the City Center to visit his parents.

Arriving at the flower bed in People’s Square, Dong Tianyu saw the deep pit of the flower bed filled with water. However, he didn’t worry about his parents’ sanctuary being flooded, knowing that they had timely closed off the entrance and exit of the sanctuary.

Using the Shadow Space to absorb all the accumulated water in the flower bed’s pit, he scanned with his Divine Sense and confirmed that the entrance door was not only sealed with cement but also had sandbags piled up behind it. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

Although Dong Tianyu could clear this passage with some effort, no one knew whether there would be more sun showers in the future, so he wouldn’t risk damaging the waterproof layer.

After all, if he wanted to visit his parents, there were other entrances to the sanctuary.

Even though this entrance was closer to the subway station’s sanctuary’s entrance than the underground parking sanctuary’s entrance, he would still have to pass through the underground parking sanctuary if he entered from the subway station. Therefore, Dong Tianyu preferred to walk a longer distance on the surface than taking a longer detour underground.

Upon entering the underground parking lot, Dong Tianyu found the entrance and exit similar to ordinary parking lots, but this place was a civil defense area, where the large iron gates had been shut, blocking any possibility of entry from here.

Dong Tianyu, who didn’t want his trip to be in vain, scanned the inside of the office building with his Divine Sense and found that he could still access the underground parking lot through the fire passage in the office building.

Since he had found a new way in, Dong Tianyu didn’t linger any longer.

However, when Dong Tianyu entered the underground parking lot of the office building, he unexpectedly ran into Robinson William who was leading a training session.

Then he realized that it made perfect sense for Robinson William, the actual leader of the West City District Special Operations Team, to be here since the families of the Special Ops team members resided here.

When Dong Tianyu stepped out from the stairs, the Special Ops team members who were training instantly looked at him with vigilant eyes.

For the same reason, anyone who entered the underground sanctuary from the surface entry at this time was definitely a Martial Artist. If they didn’t come to make trouble, they would have an urgent matter that required their attention.

Otherwise, nobody would risk the high temperature above the ground to come here. If the matter was not urgent, everyone would prefer to use the underground passages.

However, when Robinson William saw that the visitor was Dong Tianyu, he instantly guessed why he was here. After all, the entrance and exit at the flower bed pit was sealed off by Robinson William himself and his team.

Robinson William stood up and said to the training Special Ops team members, "You all keep training."

He then walked over to Dong Tianyu and greeted him unexpectedly, "What a rare visitor, so you’ve come over just as the rain stopped? Did you bring over any goodies?"

Hearing Robinson William’s words, Dong Tianyu casually took a pack of unopened Purple Tree from his pocket and tossed it over.

Robinson William adeptly caught the pack of cigarettes mid-air and put it in his pocket, and promptly praised, "Boss, you’re impressive."

Even though there was a distance between where both of them stood and where the Special Ops members were training, these training members were all martial artists in the Inner Breath Realm. They could clearly hear the conversation between Dong Tianyu and Robinson William if they paid attention.

It was beyond their imagination, that the usually serious team leader would act so childishly.

However, once they realized that Dong Tianyu had given a whole unopened pack of cigarettes, they instantly understood why their team leader was acting this way.

Noticing that the attention of the Special Ops team members was on them, Robinson William knew that if they continued standing here, the team members wouldn’t focus on their training.

"Let’s go. I’ll show you to the underground passage from here, the entrance at the flower bed was sealed off by me. Do you have time at noon? How about a drink?"

"Are you treating me?"

"My little brother’s private sanctuary was confiscated. I got some high-grade stuff from there. Guess it won’t last long anyway, so let’s help him finish it off this noon."

Although Ye Liuyun hadn’t brought back much, each item was of superb quality. After all, he still held hopes to make a comeback in the future.

But Robinson William, who had been refraining for so long, had set his sights on those supplies. Although Ye Liuyun was his younger brother, and Robinson William did have some from time to time, he didn’t feel comfortable doing that too often.

However, opportunity knocks but once. Even though he didn’t understand why Ye Liuyun frequently visited Father Dong and Mother Dong’s tent to inquire about whether Dong Tianyu had returned after Ye Liuyun came back.

But now that Dong Tianyu had indeed returned, Robinson William could use this opportunity to make Ye Liuyun splurge on some good food.

Moreover, from Ye Liuyun, Robinson William had learned that Dong Tianyu was not a stingy person. Being able to casually hand out a pack of cigarettes just confirmed Dong Tianyu’s generosity.

When Ye Liuyun invites Dong Tianyu for a meal, Dong Tianyu would surely not come empty-handed. If Robinson William’s plan doesn’t fail, they should be able to have a great meal at noon.

At this point, Robinson William’s thoughts were really plain and straightforward.

The food supply for the Special Ops team was directly sent from the Command Post. Although the food seemed more substantial than what the ordinary survivors had, it wasn’t really the case.

The meat slices in the mushroom meat slice dish were as thin as cicada wings and only the size of a thumbnail. In such a dish, if lucky, one could only find three or five pieces of meat.
