Chapter 4: Backgrounds
Inside the first crate, he found a stash of supplies that immediately caught his attention
Water bottles stacked neatly, the cool plastic glinting under the dim light, a welcome sight in this dry, claustrophobic place.
He picked up one of the bottles and traced it along the side of the crate, using it as a measuring tool.
With a quick glance, he estimated the length of the crate and began mentally calculating how many were inside.
Each crate held about two hundred bottles.
'There's 13 of us now, including me. So, assuming each one drinks one bottle a day, this crate would only last 15 days,'
'I need to check if there's another water supply or some kind of alternative,'
He moved on to the next crate, repeating the process. This time, it was canned tuna. Since the cans were smaller, there were about 400 of them in total.
The next crate contained canned beans, and there were 400 of them too.
That was a good sign; it meant they had a reliable food source for a while.
The fourth crate, smaller than the rest, was different. It was filled with alcohol disinfectant, some medicines, and other first aid supplies.
