Chapter 9
Because there was no Sun, people started to lose their sense of time. Even though clocks could show the exact date and time, how could anyone differentiate between daytime and nighttime in the darkness?
Now, every second, and every minute, was nighttime.
Since red-shelled insects began to appear, people started to exclusively use the 24-hour clock, and scrapped the 12-hour clock.
The entrance door of building No. 8 was destroyed by the Red-shelled insect. No one came to repair it.
Gradually, people started to move into building No.8 from other blocks.
At 20:00, while looking through the peephole, Chu Yunsheng noticed that the landing area beside the stairs outside his flat was filled with people looking for shelters. To them this building was the only safe place to stay. Gradually, the landing area began to fill with more and more people.
About 2 hours later, someone knocked on Chu Yunsheng’s door.
