The rain came in fits and starts over several days.
The blockade of Peace Street also lasted for several days.
Although Xu Shuo had a special exemption, he still followed the crowd and stayed home in self-isolation, not going to the company for work.
After the first day of total control, perhaps due to the pressure of public opinion, or perhaps because too much resentment easily bred negative energy that nurtured the Abyss—people who had been centrally managed were all sent back home.
However, those people still could not leave the blockade area of Peace Street.
The officials were responsible for delivering the supplies that residents needed.
So, for these past few days, the people of Peace Street were practically living as free-loading worms without freedom, spending their days eating, drinking, going online, and then crying out for the blockade to be lifted soon.
Xu Shuo had also been cooped up at home for several days.
