Jiang Li found the door key on the two people and successfully opened their door.
The temperature inside the house was about the same as outside, there were very few things inside, and the fire next to it was almost out.
They threw the two men beside the fire and then gave them a hard knock on the back of the neck, enough to keep them unconscious for several hours.
It wasn't that Jiang Li was soft-hearted, but in such cold weather, sleeping for several hours without any heating was enough to freeze a person to death.
Killing them would require disposing of their bodies, so it's better to leave them here and let them freeze to death. That way, there's no need to deal with the bodies, and it won't arouse suspicion.
When the lease expires, the people at the base will definitely come to check. They won't think much of it when they see the frozen corpses, and the base people will naturally help them dispose of the bodies.
Why would they create more work for themselves?
After saying goodbye to Gu Jin, Jiang Li returned to the 6th floor.
Inside the room on the first floor, Luo Da and Luo Er looked utterly dejected.
"Big brother, why do we keep running into the crime scenes of that female demon? This time, we even have an accomplice."
Yes, they saw Jiang Li hitting someone again. They had originally heard a noise on the third floor and wanted to go up and check it out.
They found that the reward and Gu Jin were dealing with a man and a woman. They didn't dare to linger and came down immediately.
"Those two must have offended her. Anyway, as long as we don't offend her, we'll be fine. Next time we hear a noise, we shouldn't go out."
"Okay, okay, I won't go out next time, no matter how curious I am."
Of course, this is just a small snippet.
For the next two days, Jiang Li will make jerky with Gu Jin and the others. They have already made spicy and five-spice flavors, and also made some plain flavor.
That day was like any other, a few people were processing pork in the yard when they suddenly heard someone knocking on the door.
Fu Xiaxia went out to see who it was, and after a while she heard Fu Xiaxia arguing with the person who came in.
"Old woman, let me tell you, no means no, don't try to pin this on us."
Fu Xiaxia had never seen anyone like this before.
"Why do you burn such fragrant incense every day, and then you won't allow others to say anything? You have to give me an explanation today."
Jiang Li walked over to Fu Xiaxia and asked her a question. The others also came over when they heard the voice.
"What's wrong?"
"Jiang Li, let me tell you, what does our cooking have to do with her? She actually asked me to take out the meat and hand it to her. I've never seen such a unreasonable person."
Jiang Li looked at the person at the door, who was an elderly woman who looked to be in her sixties or seventies.
“You cook such delicious food every day, and you have so much to eat. Why can’t you share some with me? How much of your food can an old woman like me eat?”
"Sigh, how can you be so shameless, you old woman?"
Fang Qingxun pointed at the woman and said.
As soon as the woman saw Fang Qingxun pointing at her, she collapsed to the ground.
"Ouch, someone's hitting me! So many of you are bullying an old woman like me! Help! Someone's hitting me! I'm telling you, you have to compensate me for what you did."
"You...you're just trying to scam me."
Fang Qingxun wanted to go up and argue with her, but Shi Yuan immediately stopped him.
"Calm down, going up there now would be playing right into her hands."
Gu Jin spoke up.
"Close the door. The more you pay attention to this kind of person, the more unreasonable she becomes."
Upon hearing that the door was to be closed, the woman immediately got up and tried to come over, but Fu Xiaxia quickly closed the door.
The woman slammed into the door with a loud crash, and this time she was truly knocked to the ground.
"Oh my god, someone come quick! Someone's trying to kill me!"
The people inside went back to their own business, and no one paid any attention to her.
The woman continued to lie on the ground and refused to leave. She even moved to the doorway and started banging on it.
"How can there be such an old lady?"
Fu Xiaxia was still angry.
"Don't worry about her. It's so cold outside, she's the one who's suffering. She'll leave when she can't take it anymore."
Jiang Li comforted Fu Xiaxia, saying that there were too many old ladies like this before the apocalypse, and the news often reported on them. Perhaps this was a case of disrespecting one's elders.
The woman didn't leave, but other people did.
"What are you doing?" Captain Wang came to find Gu Jin and the others, only to find an old woman lying down at their door.
When Jiang Li and the others heard that it was Captain Wang, they came out to open the door.
When the woman saw the other party open the door, she assumed that the other party was scared, and quickly said to Captain Wang.
"Captain Wang, they're bullying an old woman like me. They burn so much incense at home every day, and when I came to ask them something, they tried to beat me up."
"What they burn is none of your business. Having food is their own achievement."
Captain Wang clearly didn't believe the woman's words and turned to ask Jiang Li and the others.
"What happened?"
This is Gu Jin's courtyard. Jiang Li didn't respond.
Gu Jin told Captain Wang what had just happened, and Captain Wang turned to the woman and said...
"How dare you ask for other people's things? Why should they give them to you? No matter how much incense you burn, it's not yours. Go away and don't come looking for trouble again."
"Captain Wang, they stay indoors all day and never go out, and the meat smells so good every day. Who knows where their meat comes from? Captain Wang, you should investigate this."
Seeing that Captain Wang was helping Jiang Li and his group, the woman changed her tactics and falsely accused Jiang Li and his group of having meat of dubious origin.
“Their meat was hunted by themselves, I saw it with my own eyes, is there anything else you want to say?”
This time, Jiang Li and the others didn't even need to say anything; Captain Wang spoke to the woman directly.
"How could that be? I know them now. Captain Wang, you know them, and you gave them this food, so you're protecting them."
