Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When Du Yue woke up, it was already past five in the evening. After being busy for such a long time, Du Yue finally had enough sleep. She felt very comfortable. After she woke up, she lay on the bed and spaced out for a while. When Du Yue finally got up, she made the bed and quickly went to wash up before eating.

Before she went to bed, she had only eaten a simple meal to fill her stomach. Now that she was up, the food she ate had long been digested, and her stomach was empty. After all, she had moved into her new home today. She decided that she had to have a sumptuous meal today. Although life had many changes, she had to celebrate these small wins so that she could find some happiness during such ordinary days.

Du Yue found a mat and laid it on the ground. Then, she took out the small dining table that she used for her meals before. She took out the dishes she wanted to eat one by one. As she ate alone, Du Yue would preportion each dish. She also chose smaller containers to store the dishes.

There were hot and sour lotus root slices, curry beef, cold cucumber salad, a piece of roasted crispy streaky pork, and a bowl of tomato egg soup. There were four dishes and one soup. Du Yue was full after finishing her meal. After putting away the utensils, Du Yue began to clean up again.

Du Yue had finished laying out the floor of the bedroom yesterday, so she planned to tidy up the walls a little today. They were so dusty, and they were not beautiful at all. Du Yue had bought a lot of wallpaper in all colors. After a moment’s consideration, Du Yue still chose the beige wallpaper. It was simple yet pretty. If she got tired of it in the future, she could still find ways to spruce up the space.

The size of the wallpaper that Du Yue bought was 60 by 60, so it was relatively easy to put it up. She had no problem doing it alone. The house was not too big to begin with, so Du Yue used less than two hours to put up brand-new wallpaper on the walls and ceiling. Other than the spots where the switches and sockets had to be placed, she could directly stick on the wallpaper.

After she was done with the wallpaper, Du Yue put a simple wardrobe and placed it against the wall. She also put a bedside table beside the bed. She also took out the small table where she usually placed her tablet. Although the room was not big, it was a good thing that she had brought everything. With such decorations and furnishings, it felt like home.

By the time she was done, the sky outside had already darkened. Du Yue took out a roll of heat-resistant film and placed it between the window and the curtain. She then began to stick it on the window. In addition to the heat-resistant film, she also had to hang the heat-resistant cloth outside the window. With these three layers of protection, even during days when the temperature was the highest, they could prevent the house from being exposed to the scorching sun and turning into a sealed furnace. Although the house was not very big, it was still more than 80 square meters. It took a lot of time for Du Yue to do everything alone. Fortunately, Du Yue was not short on time. After fixing the bedroom window, she did not have to worry about the rest.

By the time the heat-resistant film and cloth in the bedroom were all set up, it was already past 10 p.m. Probably because night had fallen, the originally hot temperature had finally dropped a lot. Gradually, there was movement outside. She could hear the sound of cars driving and the sound of people talking.

Du Yue decided to go out and take a look. The house was almost ready, and it was a good time for her to go out and familiarize herself with the base’s environment while the temperature was low. Du Yue put on a long shirt and long pants, then covered herself up with a hat and a mask. She then put on her light hiking shoes and went out.

She wrapped herself up like a mummy to prevent herself from being bitten by mosquitoes. Yesterday, she had been cleaning up the house since she arrived at the base, so she did not have time to observe the base. Now that she was out, Du Yue realized that there were fewer mosquitoes in the first base than in the outside world. Although she would still encounter some mosquitoes, compared to the city she used to live in, this small number of mosquitoes in the base did not alarm her.

Du Yue thought that the base had probably developed some kind of special drug to suppress the reproduction and growth of mosquitoes, which was why they were able to eliminate the overwhelming number of mosquitoes. Although they were not completely eliminated, there were not many of them. She was no longer subject to constant buzzing in her ears.

The first base had a lot of lighting equipment, and under the bright streetlights, Du Yue could see her surroundings clearly. Du Yue observed carefully as she walked. From time to time, there would be people hurrying past, though she was unsure where they were going.
