The next day, I started stocking up on essentials.
Not knowing how long the extreme heat apocalypse would last, I bought items focusing on quantity rather than cost.
At the market, I purchased dozens of cattle, sheep, pigs, and chickens, asking the vendors to butcher and sort them. I also bought a batch of easy–to–raise rabbits and Chinese quail, planning to keep them in a small compartment on the third floor as fresh meat reserves. I stocked up on heat–resistant vegetable seeds and fertilizers in large quantities.
With more time on hand, I rushed to the wholesale supermarket. I got 400 pounds each of rice and flour and ordered 500 barrels of bottled water. Various seasonings were tossed into the shopping cart by the box.
I also bought a lot of instant rice and mini hot pots. In case cooking wasn’t possible, these could still provide sustenance.
Considering there was still time before the apocalypse, I ordered dozens more boxes of snacks, drinks, and fruits, along with various daily necessities and kitchenware. I practically cleared out entire shelves.
The cashier was shocked at checkout, so I told him these were for donations. He then happily arranged for a vehicle to deliver my supplies back to the village.
After leaving the supermarket, I went to the local fish pond. I bought ten each of five easy–to–raise fish species, as well as some fry, planning to throw them into the fish tanks for breeding. Passing by a clothing store. Inackod un liektuet

to throw them into the fish tanks for breeding. Passing by a clothing store, I packed up lightweight quick–dry clothes and some winter clothes for unforeseen needs.
Lastly, I headed into a pharmacy, buying dozens of boxes of every type of medicine, especially those targeting heatstroke dehydration and mosquito bites.
Driving a seven–seater, it took me three trips to move everything back home.
After finishing all this, I opened my phone to check on Ethan’s family.
Opening social media, I saw Ethan’s close–up.
It was clear they were having a great time in Miami, staying at a luxury hotel that cost thousands a night and enjoying freshly caught seafood. Even their son received a full set of electronics from Chloe.
Watching the three of them so carefree, I couldn’t help but smile with a sense of detachment.
Enjoy your last grand celebration.
