Upon entering the building, everyone began searching for a room. The people already inside were still panicked from the collapse, and with so many new arrivals flooding in, arguments and conflicts erupted once more.
At that moment, Taylor Vance stepped forward. He explained the situation outside to the residents: all the houses had collapsed, the ground was sinking, and apart from this building, there was nowhere else to go.
The building still had plenty of empty space. Even if the residents didn't agree, the outsiders would have forced their way in regardless. Left with no choice, they had to let everyone inside.
Just as Evelyn Ford's group got inside, many more people trickled in after them.
Evelyn Ford found a storage room, and for the time being, everyone had to squeeze inside.
"Will this building keep sinking? Is it safe for us to stay here? Maybe we should just leave."
