Global Flood: I Have a Floating Safehouse

Shu Fu is a screenwriter who awakens in a parallel world that closely resembles her own, inhabiting the body of a recent university graduate with similar memories and circumstances. She discovers a matte silver bracelet on her wrist that transforms into a glove, granting her access to a 150-cubic-meter spatial storage where time is suspended. This ability allows her to instantly store and retrieve items, a power she recognizes from an apocalyptic water-world animation script she previously wrote. The script features an "Unsinkable Floating Island Cabin," a cheat item for the protagonist, which initially appears as a decorative message bottle on her wrist but remains inactive.

Soon after awakening, Shu Fu realizes she is trapped within the city of Suicheng, unable to leave due to an inexplicable spatial barrier that prevents all transportation and navigation from functioning beyond city limits. Simultaneously, she observes a young man live-streaming from a rooftop, claiming to be reborn from a future where global floods have submerged most of the land. He warns of impending tsunamis, rising sea levels, and societal collapse, but is subdued by military forces and labeled mentally ill. Shu Fu attempts to warn others but suffers severe migraines and memory loss when trying to disclose the disaster details, forcing her to rely on her own notes and the script outline to prepare.

Shu Fu dedicates herself to stockpiling essential supplies, purchasing massive quantities of food, water, medicine, and survival gear using her savings. She acquires a small apartment in an old residential complex and a ground-floor garage for storage. During this process, she encounters a black mini notebook linked to her bracelet, which issues specific tasks to upgrade the "Drift Island House." Completing these tasks, such as clocking in at her workplace or visiting specific locations, grants progress toward leveling up the raft. She successfully activates the raft, a ten-square-meter floating wooden house with a temperature-controlled interior, wastewater filtration, and water purification systems.

The narrative shifts as the weather turns violent, with torrential rain, hail, and strong winds striking the city. Shu Fu tests the raft's capabilities, discovering it can drift with currents and dock within a twenty-meter radius. She continues to hoard resources, including generators, fuel, and household appliances, while navigating the social dynamics of her workplace and the growing chaos outside. The tasks from the notebook become increasingly specific, linking her survival progress to mundane daily activities, suggesting a deeper connection between her actions in this world and the fictional narrative she helped create.

As the storms intensify, Shu Fu faces the reality of a world on the brink of ecological collapse. The initial calm of the stockpiling phase gives way to the urgency of the coming disaster. She balances her need for resources with the constraints imposed by the bracelet's tasks, realizing that her survival depends not just on material wealth but on fulfilling the mysterious requirements set by the system. The story establishes a tense atmosphere where the boundary between her original world's fiction and this new reality blurs, setting the stage for a struggle for survival in a drowning world.
