Chapter 118: Nighttime Bustle
Li Yao mingled with the crowd. On such a hot day, some people took out valuable things from their homes to exchange for food.
There are many people setting up stalls in the entire community, but few people exchanging things. Everyone wants to exchange their extra things for food, but there are very few things that can be exchanged.
Li Yao walked around and found that they were all jewelry and bags. Li Yao took a look and then looked away.
She was wrapped tightly, but anyone with a discerning eye could recognize who she was. It was so hot, and everyone wanted to wear as little as possible. Although some people wrapped themselves tightly, this one had a well-proportioned figure, and her steps were steady, powerful, and leisurely.
There are only those four people in Minghua Community. The figure is a woman, probably one of the two women in Building 35.
People who have seen how powerful Li Yao is naturally don't dare to get close to her, but there are many people who have heard of Li Yao but have never seen her.
Li Yao took a few turns and left the community. She thought there was nothing interesting here and it was also very lively outside.
She glanced back and felt someone following her in the community. She could sense that people in the community were in turmoil recently. What they took out from outside every day was either food or daily necessities.
Every time they came back, they found more things than everyone else. Countless people were jealous of them, but when they heard that there were guns on the 35th floor, they were afraid to go up. Moreover, they always went out in groups and would not be alone.
This time they finally caught one of the women alone. There were two men and two women living on the 33rd floor. They had seen them from afar. Each of them was a top-notch beauty. If the men from the 35th floor followed them, they would still be a little wary. But now there was only one woman, so what did they have to fear?
Li Yao disappeared as soon as she turned a corner. The four people who were following her panicked when they saw Li Yao disappear. "Where is she?"
"Are you looking for me?" Li Yao leaned against the wall, feeling its warmth. The weather was hot, and the wall, which had been exposed to the sun all day, was also warm.
They turned around suddenly. When did this woman come behind them?
"You've been following me since we grew up in the residential area. Is there something about me that you guys like?" She took off her hat and mask, revealing her stunning face. The four of them were stunned.
I had seen her from a distance before, and my heart was itching at that time. Now looking at her, my whole body is melting.
"I say, can you guys do something new? You're either after my supplies or after me. There's nothing new about it." She muttered and complained, pointing the silenced gun at them.
Suddenly she remembered that the boss from the day before yesterday was interesting. His liking for Yan Yi made her look at him differently.
When those people saw the pistol in Li Yao's hand appearing like a magic trick, no one questioned whether the gun was fake.
They started to run, but Li Yao didn't give them the chance. She shot a bullet at each of them, and both bullets hit their calves. They looked quite funny as they limped along.
Li Yao sighed and said they were not fun. She continued to wrap herself tightly and went for a stroll in the next neighborhood. The weather was hot and humid, so Li Yao used her special powers to cool down her body temperature and all the hot sweat on her body disappeared without a trace.
The ability can also balance her body temperature, and she is wrapped tightly, just not wanting everyone to notice that she is not sweating a single drop.
She went to the neighborhood next door, where she formed a team with others and some of them got together to chat.
The situation in this community is the same as that in Minghua Community. No one has anything to eat, but in a corner, someone is selling sprouted potatoes, which can be taken back for planting.
Five kilograms of miscellaneous grains can be exchanged for one kilogram of potatoes. Potatoes have a high yield. If they can be planted, there will be a lot of potatoes in the future, which can improve the dilemma of having nothing to eat later.
Some people gritted their teeth and bought one kilogram, but most people had no intention of buying anything. They could eat five kilograms of grains for a long time if they saved them, but it was difficult to grow potatoes because of the hot weather. Secondly, none of the people living here had ever grown potatoes, and even if they did, they didn't know how to grow them.
Li Yao just took a look and left. After walking around and finding it boring, she went back to the community.
The Minghua Community is in an uproar. The four people who came back with a limp scared the people in the community. They were afraid that these people would provoke the wrong people and bring disaster to their community. One person on the 35th floor would be enough for them to suffer.
Someone went up to ask and found out that these guys had offended the woman on the 35th floor. The worried people in Minghua Community were relieved, but there was a bullet stuck in their legs. There happened to be a surgeon in the community who could help them take the bullet out with just three kilograms of food.
Perhaps only this doctor would think that Li Yao was a good person. All the people shot by Li Yao came to him. Relying on this skill, the surgeon earned a lot of food. If he was full, the whole family would not be hungry. The current stored food could last for a year if they were frugal. Now these four people brought another 12 kilograms of food.
Now Li Yao has added to his performance. To others, Li Yao may be a bad person, but to him, Li Yao is a good person.
After getting twelve kilograms of food, he quickly got their bullets out: "Be careful not to get an inflammation."
After saying that, he took the food back and hid it. There are two types of people in Minghua Community that you should not mess with. One is the person on the 35th floor of Building 43, and the other is the doctor.
As long as Li Yao is around, he can stay safely in Minghua Community.
He felt that he could not stay in Minghua Community for long, and perhaps he could take food to the official shelter. As a surgeon, he might be able to be of use.
The four men who were shot were screaming and groaning, and their legs might be broken.
Yan Yi, who was also unable to sleep, came out for a walk. Unexpectedly, he heard such a commotion, so he came over to take a look. Unexpectedly, he heard Li Yao's name.
There was no need to ask to know what had happened. These four people were beaten by Li Yao.
He analyzed calmly that Li Yao usually didn't fight back, but she wouldn't endure it if someone provoked her. Li Yao was so pretty, so these three people must have wanted to target Li Yao, so they were shot in the leg by Li Yao.
After teaching them a lesson, she also let the people in Minghua Community see it. Even if she was alone, Li Yao was not afraid.
The weather is hot and people in Minghua community are feeling uneasy. They can all feel that if they leave it alone, there will be another activity targeting the 35th floor. Now that they have been warned, they will calm down for a while.
Yan Yi exchanged two compressed biscuits for some unopened seasonings. There was no food now and the seasonings were not valuable. If he used two compressed biscuits sparingly, they could last him four or five days.
After Li Yao returned home, she did not sleep. Now people sleep during the day and come out at night. Ning Xinyue and Yan Yuansi stay outside to avoid the sun during the day, and they will come back at night.
Li Yao was thinking about the cars at the dock, and maybe prepare one for Ning Xinyue and Yan Yuansi, which would be convenient when they go out to look for supplies.
Li Yao turned on the TV. The sun outside was too hot, so she pulled the blackout curtains. She felt that this was better.
Yan Yi followed Li Yao's advice, sleeping during the day and going out at night. He was getting used to this schedule in the past few days. When Ning Xinyue and Yan Yuansi came back, they went to the dock.
