Chapter 58 Demolishing the Dormitory

Chapter 58 Demolishing the Dormitory

It rained all night.

It stopped when it was dawn the next day, but the sky was still gloomy.

Ji Zai yawned as soon as he woke up.

Because of the drop in temperature, the air is very humid now, and everything outside is shrouded in mist, so you can't see anything.

Because the air was so humid, I felt all wet.

It's as if the air is full of water.

Ji Zai looked down and, sure enough, the floor tiles in their dormitory were soaked with water.

This damp environment looks like mushrooms could grow at any moment.

Ji Zai disliked the sticky feeling and wanted to get out of bed to find a dehumidifier.

But I couldn't find it no matter how hard I looked.

"Where's the dehumidifier in our dorm in July?"

Ji Zai asked a question, but found no one responded.

She looked over and saw Liang Qiyue sleeping like a log.

Liang Qiyue had just recovered from her fever yesterday, and after sleeping for so many days, she shouldn't have been so tired. But rainy days are perfect for sleeping, so she slept straight through until dawn.

He still shows no signs of waking up.

Ji Zai was greatly shocked. He went over to check on him and found that he didn't have a fever, which put his mind at ease.

She looked around again and found the dehumidifier in the cabinet where the quilts were kept.

But the dehumidifier is out of power.

It needs to be powered on.

Ji Zai unplugged the small pot and plugged in the dehumidifier, but after waiting for a long time, it still didn't start.

"Huh?"

She was about to check the plug when she noticed the indicator light on the appliance wasn't on. She immediately realized what was wrong: "Oh no! It's been raining these past few days, no sun, how could there be any electricity!"

Now we can't finish the porridge.

Don't mention porridge.

Even other facilities are unusable.

Electricity.

Ji Zai recalled the issue he discussed with Liang Qiyue last night, tapped his fingers, and realized that electricity was indeed the most important thing.

But given the current situation, what kind of generator can store electricity over a large area?

Before Ji Zai could come up with an answer, a scream came from next door.

"The power is out!!"

It pierced through the entire dormitory area, creating a scene so terrifying it was like a haunted house where you could scream.

Ji Zai was startled by the sound. She knew the power was out, but she didn't expect someone to start screaming so soon.

She calmly walked out and discovered that the person screaming was Xue Nai.

"Oh my god, the power's out! What am I going to do about breakfast? What am I going to do about lunch? What am I going to do about dinner? I'm just recovering, and I really need to replenish my nutrients!"

Xue Nai got up early to cook breakfast.

But they found that the switch wouldn't work no matter how they pressed it.

Only then did she realize that the power was out.

When the story was published, Yukina, who had lost all will to live, was seen.

She was startled. "It's just a power outage, why do you look like something's about to go wrong?"

Yukina cried, "Because I ran out of my dry food and biscuits while I was sick, and now I have nothing to eat but rice."

There is no electricity.

And that's the end of it all.

Looking at her miserable state, Ji Zai said, "Didn't we store a lot of dried rice before? Just soak it in some water and it'll be ready to eat."

They had cooked rice for a long time on the president's advice.

So now I've stockpiled a lot of dried rice.

Before, everyone would eat it with hot water, but now that there's no electricity, we can't boil water, so we can only eat it dry.

It tastes terrible when eaten dry.

But it shouldn't be to the point of death, right?

When Xue Nai mentioned this, it was like the sky had fallen: "Our dorm is out of water!"

Upon hearing this, Ji Zai froze.

I almost forgot.

The other dormitories are four-person rooms, which consumes a lot of water.

After a month of being confined, they might really run out of water.

Ji Zai's expression turned to sympathy. "Please accept my condolences. I am currently trying to find a solution to the water and electricity problems in the dormitory. If you can hold on for a few more days, a solution may come out."

Upon hearing this, Xue Nai burst into tears.

She cried as she clung to Ji Zai's clothes, saying, "Alliance Leader, you know me. I depend on you for everything, from food and drink to even my basic needs. If it concerns my food or drink, please be sure to call me."

"I'd rather die after I've eaten my fill."

After hearing this, Ji Zai nodded. "I understand. I also plan to start manufacturing human-powered generators now, but I don't have enough parts right now, so I need to disassemble some things."

Upon hearing this, Xue Nai stopped. "Ah, Alliance Leader, although I knew from your usual antics that the dormitory would eventually fall apart, I didn't expect that day to come so soon!"

"Isn't the principal's slush fund enough for you to know about?"

Ji Zai thought of those parts and nodded seriously, "It's indeed not enough, but if we want to complete the human-powered generator, those few parts alone won't do it. We need to dismantle the dormitory."

"Take electrical wires, for example."

Upon hearing this, Xue Nai's face turned terrified. "But Alliance Leader, if we demolish the dormitories, how will we get electricity in the future!"

Ji Zai coughed softly, his gaze wandering.

His tone was neither reasonable nor confident: "I never said we should demolish this building."

Ji Zai's gaze inadvertently fell on the dormitory next door.

The place was deserted, with only countless metal parts and components firmly fixed there, like unappreciated treasures, coveted by those with predatory eyes.

Ah, he looks very talented.

Yukina, who quickly understood the alliance leader's meaning, was speechless.

She glanced at the dormitory next door, where there was no human rights.

Silence fell.

When the principal returns and sees the school in this state, will he be furious?
