Xia Shige was so scared that he quickly retracted his hand.
After a moment, she suppressed her fear, stretched out her hands and turned the body over, looking at the face of the deceased - she had never seen this face before, and didn't know who this person was, but...
Xia Shige's gaze gradually moved downwards, and then she was surprised to find that the deceased was holding an electric saw in his hand!
The chainsaw was a portable one, not very big in size. The blade of the chainsaw was flashing with cold light, and the handle was still firmly grasped in the hand of the frozen dead person.
——What is going on here?
Xia Shige was simply confused.
She was silent for a moment, moved the dead body out, and then she knocked on the door of 1701.
Xia Shige knocked on the door again and again, but after a long time, there was still no movement from inside.
She thought for a moment, then called out to the door, "Is anyone there? I'm from the Emergency Office! The government released supplies yesterday, and the Emergency Office has set up a temporary shelter on the 23rd floor. You can go over there to keep warm and get supplies!"
As Xia Shige finished speaking, there was a sound of a door lock turning, and the door of 1701 was opened a little.
A figure in a black down jacket appeared at the door. It seemed to be a young woman with long hair, about 20 or 30 years old. She was secretly looking at Xia Shige at the door through the crack in the door, with a vigilant look on her face.
Upon seeing this, Xia Shige immediately took two steps back, raised his hands to show that he was not armed, and said, "I'm not a bad person, don't worry! You should have heard the sound of a helicopter yesterday, that was the government coming to deliver supplies to our community!"
"But the amount of coal in this batch of supplies is very small, not enough for the owners, so the emergency office has built a temporary shelter on the 23rd floor of our single-story building, and all the owners in the single-story building can take refuge there!"
After listening to Xia Shige's explanation, the young woman in formal attire inside the door seemed relieved.
She took the initiative to open the door, stared at Xia Shige for a while, and asked: "...You... Is your last name Xia?"
Xia Shige was stunned when he heard this, and said in surprise: "Yes, my last name is Xia, do you know me?"
Xia Shige recalled carefully and found that he had no impression of the woman in front of him. How could she know his last name?
The woman nodded, then shook her head. In Xia Shige's puzzled eyes, she began to explain: "My name is He Yang. We don't know each other. It's just that I went to Jingjing Supermarket to get supplies before, and I met your mother. I also saw you helping out there..."
Xia Shige used to go to the material supply point often to help out, so He Yang had an impression of her.
If He Yang hadn't found Xia Shige's voice familiar, he wouldn't have opened the door for her - everyone was short of supplies now, and who knew if the person knocking on the door was a human or a ghost, or if he was trying to rob the house.
He Yang wrapped his down jacket tightly around him and said to Xia Shige, "Thank you for coming to inform me. My family has run out of coal. I'll pack up and go to the 23rd floor."
Xia Shige nodded when she heard that, and then she remembered the body on the ground. She hesitated for a moment, pointed at the body, and asked He Yang: "Miss He, do you know the man at the door... He is dead..."
After hearing what Xia Shige said, He Yang's expression did not change. He did not panic because he learned that there was a dead person at his door.
She simply glanced at the body behind the door and replied in a deep voice: "I know him... He is the tenant who lives opposite me in room 1702."
