Before the coal was even unloaded, the stainless steel water tower and swimming pool ordered by Zuo Ling arrived.

Goods were being unloaded into the warehouse from both sides like flowers in bloom; the 10,000-square-meter warehouse was packed to the brim.

The stainless steel water tower and swimming pool have been unloaded, but the coal is still unloaded. The unloading workers are exhausted and their legs are weak.

This was also the first time Zuo Ling had ever seen how much 100 tons of honeycomb briquettes actually was.

I took out two bags of bean buns and sugar triangles, cut up a few watermelons and gave them to the workers so they could have something to eat before they got back to work.

It wasn't that Zuo Ling's subordinates were lax, but rather that they were genuinely unable to continue working.

Having some food in your stomach will help you work faster.

We rushed around as fast as we could, and finally finished unloading everything around 6 p.m.

After seeing the workers off and closing the courtyard gate, Zuo Ling rushed to a nearby courier point without even having time to store the goods in her spatial storage.

The water purifier filter sheets, the dual-purpose water and oil pump, and the water controller have arrived.

The goods were too few, so they wouldn't deliver them, and Zuo Ling had to pick them up herself.

After retrieving the package, Zuo Ling stored the other goods, except for the swimming pool, into the storage space.

Although I didn't go with the unloading, it was still quite tiring after a day of running around.

I just had a moment to myself, and my stomach started growling.

Take out a young chicken, a pan-fried ribbonfish, a can of soda, and two large steamed buns.

Zuo Ling ate with great satisfaction.

I realized I forgot to steam some xiaolongbao (soup dumplings) when I got home yesterday; the ones I got from the shop were all frozen.

There's gas in the room, but no gas stove; we need to get one as soon as possible.

After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, they used the warehouse's own high-pressure water gun to wash the ground clean.

After cleaning the floor, unpack the swimming pool, inflate it, clean it thoroughly, and put it in the space.

She plans to go to the reservoir to collect water tomorrow, and these tasks must be completed tonight.

Fortunately, there are still many readings on the water meter in the warehouse, so there's no need to worry about running out of water.

Unpacking is hard work; after unpacking and washing 200 swimming pools, Zuo Ling was almost exhausted.

Looking at the swimming pool with its rows of seats, I feel quite accomplished.

After resting enough, I locked the door, and under the starlight, headed to the secret area.

Kumo Reservoir, Kyoto’s largest reservoir and the only source of drinking water, is located in Miku District.

It was already past midnight when they entered the secret area, and Zuo Ling was exhausted.

I found a chain hotel, booked a room, and went straight to sleep without even washing up.

I woke up at noon.

I took a nice hot shower and felt refreshed.

For days, Zuo Ling had been eating nothing but steamed buns and mantou, and she wanted to change things up.

Following the aroma of hot and sour noodles, I turned into a small shop on the street.

After a bowl of sour, spicy, and fragrant noodles, I wasn't even half full; it just whetted my appetite.

Another bowl of knife-cut noodles, with bright green scallions garnishing the thinly sliced ​​braised beef, looks incredibly tempting.

One sip of soup, so soothing! Delicious!

The food served in the open space lacked the warmth and flavor of home cooking; it's much better to eat it when you're surrounded by people.

After finishing their meal, Zuo Ling drove to Yunshui Reservoir.

I heard that the area around Yunshui Reservoir is surrounded by barbed wire to protect the water source.

Zuo Ling had visited the area before and hadn't noticed if there was any barbed wire.

As you approach the reservoir, the misty water vapor in the air invigorates you.

The 110-kilometer ring road around the lake is not short, but finding a suitable place to pump water is difficult.

After circling most of the reservoir, we finally found a suitable place to draw water.

There is an inconspicuous path here, with a drop of seven or eight meters between the road surface and the reservoir, separated by a grove of trees.

Once inside the vehicle, I put on a slash- and stab-proof vest, grabbed a military shovel, and carefully descended the steep slope.

They hadn't gone far when they encountered a barbed wire fence blocking their way.

Looking around, a gaping hole that had already been destroyed came into view.

Zuo Ling carefully squeezed through the gap and walked forward for seven or eight minutes, where the water rippled before her eyes.

After searching around with binoculars to make sure no one was around, they chose a flat area and placed four stainless steel water towers.

Connect the water pump and water controller, and start pumping water.

They dared not release too many water towers; a grand display would attract too much attention and wouldn't be aesthetically pleasing.

Even so, she hid the water tower as deep as possible in the woods.

It was my first time stealing water, and I was incredibly nervous; my heart was pounding.

He kept pacing around, looking around nervously, as if afraid of being caught in the act.

I wondered to myself, how did the protagonist in the novel collect hundreds of tons of water with a wave of his hand?

She tried, but couldn't put it away.

The water pump can pump about 3 tons of water per hour, but the electricity is only enough to support it for 3 hours.

It took more than two hours of continuous pumping to fill all 50 stainless steel water tanks.

She arrived too late; it was already getting dark.

It took another hour or so to fill four swimming pools.

The mosquitoes came and disturbed everyone's peace.

Zuo Ling had no choice but to return the way she came, planning to come earlier the next day.

The water pump is running continuously, but the power is insufficient.

Back in the city, Zuo Ling first bought 10 large power strips and a thick chain.

Back at the hotel, after charging all 10 water pumps and batteries, I finally felt at ease enough to eat.

Having learned from her experience of stealing water the day before, Zuo Ling became bolder.

The swimming pool was too conspicuous and easily spotted, so she changed her strategy, filling the water tank and then pouring the water into the swimming pool.

Water towers were scattered around the area, and 10 water pumps operated simultaneously.

They then took out the solar panels and batteries to power the water pump, bustling around the water like butterflies flitting among flowers.

Starting at 5 a.m. and ending at 5 p.m., after a busy day, there were still 76 swimming pools left to be filled, leaving Zuo Ling completely exhausted.

Fortunately, the location she chose for pumping water was secluded enough that no one discovered a water thief hiding there, saving her a lot of trouble.

The thought of the 1,000 large vats still on the way made Zuo Ling want to vomit blood.
