I Transmigrate as a Single Mother of the Three Antagonists

“!!!”

The warden listened to the sounds of water splashing inside and the two of them whispering to each other. He could not help being dumbstruck and instantly imagined some amorous scene.

He could not believe that the President would actually be in the mood for such activities in the shower of such a place. He stood rooted to the ground for a long time, unable to recover from his shock.

The sounds of water flowing grew increasingly louder. Unable to stay on anymore, the warden fled.

He had just run out the door when he seemed to have remembered something. He turned around and gently pushed the food cart out.

In the bathroom, Qiu Tong was completely unaware of all that. She looked at Jin Yang seriously and raised the shower head high as she spoke.

“Jin Yang, I think the source of the infectious disease might be in this water.”

In fact, Qiu Tong had only asked Jin Yang to come in because she had smelled a faint odor while checking the water.

After hearing Qiu Tong’s explanation, Jin Yang wanted to take the shower head and have a closer look, but Qiu Tong stopped him.

That was what the warden heard.

“Since we’ve found something, let’s follow the clues and take a look.”

Jin Yang turned off the shower and got someone to bring over a blueprint of the water pipelines.

Jin Yang and Qiu Tong followed the blueprint and found the water source. They traced the water source and found a dried-up lake.

“Jin Yang, wait a moment.”

Qiu Tong walked towards the lake and saw that the riverbed was dry and bare. There were many dead fish in the pit that were already rotting.

She squatted down and pinched the dried mud on the riverbed. She placed it under her nose and sniffed it twice. Her expression immediately changed.

“What did you find?”

Jin Yang came to Qiu Tong’s side and asked softly.

“I was right. The problem is in the water. These dead fish must be the source of the disease.”

Qiu Tong pointed at the pit full of dead fish, her gaze solemn and heavy.

“The water flowed through here and brought the virus to the water source below, causing the outbreak.”

“Jin Yang, get someone to bring these dead fish back. I want to use them as a sample to research for a cure.”

Jin Yang waved his hand and summoned his subordinates, instructing them to obey Qiu Tong’s orders.

Qiu Tong stood by the shore and watched Jin Yang’s men collecting the dead fish. Her expression gradually turned serious.

It was normal for this lake to dry up during this dry season. When the rainy season came, the lake would be filled with rainwater again and return to normal.

But having read the storyline in the book, Qiu Tong realized that this was not a simple seasonal transition, but an omen of the drought.

From now on, there will be very little rain during the summer and not a drop of water for months to come.

It wouldn’t take long for many lakes to show signs of drying up. Even the water in the rivers would slowly decrease. Smaller streams would disappear without a trace.

When that time came, the farmers wouldn’t be able to water their fields, which would greatly reduce production.

However, the effects of the drought were not just limited to this. There would also be locusts and epidemics.

Once people could not afford to eat and could not recover from their diseases, there would be no law and order. Chaos would reign over the entire society. The structure of the society would completely change.

The world will enter a period of famine.

“Jin Yang, I feel that this is not just due to the effects of seasonal changes.”

Qiu Tong thought about it for a moment. In the end, she couldn’t bear to just sit back and watch the disaster happen. To look on as so many people died in the famine, without doing anything. Her expression was solemn as she looked at Jin Yang sincerely.

“I think this is a sign of drought. After drought, there will usually be massive locust plagues. There might even be famines and epidemics.”

“I suggest that you take care of the locusts in advance so that you won’t be flustered when things come to a head.”

Jin Yang frowned slightly, a trace of doubt rising in his heart.

This was just an ordinary natural phenomenon. The fish died because the riverbed dried up, and the lake happened to be right above the water source, which caused the virus carried by the dead fish to infect the water source of the prison, resulting in the epidemic.

It was pure coincidence.

He did not know why Qiu Tong was so cautious and excessively anxious.

Jin Yang’s gaze was probing. “Qiu Tong, locust plagues have not happened for many years. How did you determine that a major locust plague is about to happen?”
