Cave Refuge

Chapter 15: Chapter 15: The Final 24 hours_1



Although Mrs. Thompson was somewhat accepting of Mr. Thompson's explanation, her expression was still somewhat sad.

Seeing this, Mr. Thompson could only change the topic and ask, "Since you've thought it through, what have you prepared for your mother and me?" After saying that, he gave Dong Tianyu a knowing look.

Catching his father's eye, Dong Tianyu instantly understood his meaning and immediately responded, "I've prepared a specially packed supply kit for each of you. It contains long-life compressed food and some commonly used medicines.

Furthermore, I've also ordered some insulated sleeping bags. In case we really have to enter the Refuge Center, we can guarantee that each relative and friend can have one and at least have a place to sleep."

The sleeping bags were custom made by an outdoor sports store. They are incredibly warm. It is said that people who climbed Mount Everest use these sleeping bags. Once vacuum-sealed, they are very small and convenient to carry unless opened.

That night, Mr. Thompson and Dong Tianyu talked for a long time. Mr. Thompson understood that Tianyu made many preparations and not only invested a lot of effort but also spent a lot of money.

At first, Mr. Thompson did not believe Dong Tianyu's words. He only thought that after this special period, Dong Tianyu wanted to accumulate some supplies for fear of another virus resurgence.

So when Dong Tianyu mentioned building a Private Sanctuary, although he thought his son was worrying too much, he thought it was just a matter of spending more money. There are some savings in the family, so they wouldn't starve.

But after a detailed conversation with his son, Mr. Thompson realized that his son's savings over the years were not enough. He guessed that his son must have either taken loans or borrowed money from somewhere else.

However, all the ways to earn big money in a short time were all illegal. So Mr. Thompson simultaneously hoped for a natural disaster to occur, so his son's preparations would not be wasted, and hoped that it wouldn't happen, to not disrupt their peaceful life.

After all, they were going to retire in two years. By then, they would have both time and money and planned to tour their beautiful country while they still could.

After Dong Tianyu left, Mr. Thompson and Mrs. Thompson continued to discuss the situation. However, no matter what, they would still gather with the relatives.

Whether it was the Clarke family or the Thompsons, during family gatherings, Mr. Thompson would casually mention that families should often visit each other and have heard that the virus that had just ended was only the first stage of the virus, and the subsequent virus will mutate, so some food and cash should be stored at home.

It was easy to say this to the Thompsons. Although Mr. Thompson is the youngest and their financial circumstances are just average, the Thompsons are taken care of by him and his second elder brother. Therefore, the four older brothers would likely accept Mr. Thompson's proposal, even though it's unknown to what extent they would accept it.

On Mrs. Thompson's side, her eldest brother-in-law, who manages the electrical aspects at Pengcheng Heavy Industries, simply laughed at Mr. Thompson's words. Their family was well-off, and even during the virus's rampage, their living standards did not drop at all.

The circumstances for the second sister were unique; she moved in with Griffin Benjamin after her divorce and since her mental health isn't the best, she wasn't allowed to manage household affairs.

Mrs. Thompson is the third child of the Clarke family, and she also has a younger brother, the eldest son of the family.

Logically, all family affairs should be managed by Dong Tianyu's uncle. But perhaps because Griffin Benjamin finally had a son, the three sisters took great care of their brother.

They didn't allow their brother to worry about family affairs, so he lived a carefree life. Although he got along well with Mr. Thompson, he was often out on business trips and didn't have the habit of storing supplies.

So, Mr. Thompson's words did not stir up any waves in the Clarke family.

With one week's time, Dong Tianyu also thought about his apparent lack of medical supplies. Buying was certainly out of the question. At this point, the money he scammed was already spent.

However, Dong Tianyu knew the location of the Medical Warehouse. As long as others hadn't reacted yet, it would be easy to get a truckload of medicine.

Unfortunately, although he had a Storage Space, it could only be used in the Cave mansion. But on the other hand, since obtaining the Survival System and converting the Refuge Center to the Shadow Space, besides the Shadow Space being somewhat mysterious, nothing else was.

Perhaps the level of his Cave mansion was too low. After leveling up, he might be able to enjoy the benefits brought by the mysterious side.

"Ding~ Countdown for the second wave of disasters (magnetic field disorder) starts in twenty-four hours."

Although he had told his father that the disasters were man-made, this was just an excuse by Dong Tianyu. He was not clear about the actual situation. But since the System had given the reminder, all electronic devices outside will surely break down tomorrow.

Prepared for this, Dong Tianyu called his father but didn't specify anything, just mentioning he would come home for dinner tomorrow night.

Then he contacted his grown-up brothers and sisters, asking them to find him this evening. Dong Tianyu had prepared something for every family.

Looking at the last name in his phone, Dong Tianyu was somewhat helpless. His cousin, the only grandchild of the Clarke family, Mao He, said he was busy in Magic City and didn't come back in the end.

Not wanting to leave a touch of regret, he still gave him a call, but it didn't go through. So, Dong Tianyu could only leave a message on his Instagram, asking him to withdraw some cash from the bank as soon as he saw this message and then buy some long-lasting food to store.

What a coincidence, Mr. Thompson has five brothers, but Dong Tianyu ended up with four older sisters. The youngest, Dong Tianyu, became the eldest grandson.

On Mrs. Thompson's side, there were three sisters and a younger brother. As a result, only the second sister had a daughter, and the rest had sons. If it wasn't this way, the second sister wouldn't have tried for a second child, leading to her mental instability.

What Dong Tianyu prepared for his brothers and sisters was actually the same as what he prepared for his parents, a battle-ready backpack and an insulated sleeping bag for each person in their family.

After all, based on the situation from his previous life, if only his parents had these things in the overcrowded underground shelter, it would be too conspicuous. If an accident occurred, it wouldn't be a matter of inequality.

Therefore, just give one to each person. Anyway, with the money from scamming, it would be a waste not to spend it. If outsiders come to snatch it, others would protect their sleeping bags for themselves.

Dong Tianyu gave a detailed introduction to the use of the battle-ready backpack and the insulated sleeping bag to his brothers and sisters, and told them not to easily open them. These items were vacuum-sealed and compressed, and once opened, they were hard to put back.

And he instructed that these two things should be kept well. It would be best not to use them later but it would be convenient to carry them if needed.

Although they didn't understand why Dong Tianyu gave them these things, they were able to understand Dong Tianyu's instructions. After all, the two things Dong Tianyu gave are very practical, it's better to have them and not use them than not have them at all.
