Chapter 52: Get Fish Back
Her shrill howls attracted all the neighbors to come out. The families there had good relations with each other, and when they heard Luo Yalan's voice, they all came out with kitchen knives and sticks in their hands. They all knew what happened in Building 43 opposite, so no one dared to come out.
I heard that two-thirds of the people in the building opposite had died. It’s scary to think about it, so their building learned from experience and the neighbors united as one, so their building is doing pretty well.
When I heard my neighbor shouting "murder", I thought someone had broken in to steal food, so I went out with my weapons without thinking. No matter who came, I had to let them know that the people in Building 33 were not to be trifled with.
As a result, they saw a pretty girl standing in front of the door of 1503, while Luo Yalan's family was holding weapons.
The neighbors were also confused as to what had happened.
"Little girl, what happened?" Several neighbors came over. As long as it wasn't a matter of life or death, they could still watch the fun. God knows how they get through the day.
Li Yao said sincerely: "She took my fish. She took the fish I hung there. It's not too much for me to come here and ask for something."
All the neighbors knew what kind of person Luo Yalan was. Food was life these days. Their son had accomplished nothing. It had been raining for such a long time, but they had never seen their son go out to find food. Both she and her husband depended on Luo Yalan alone.
"Aunt Luo, it's not easy for the little girl either. Everyone wants a bite to eat now, and you still have a son and daughter-in-law."
The neighbors were all sensible. Even though a little girl like Li Yao came to look for them in person, they also understood that it was not easy to store food.
Luo Yalan narrowed her eyes and said, "Impossible. I didn't take her food. The fish was just there. What's wrong with me taking it back?"
"It's not taking, it's stealing. No one in my building took it. Only you took it. I'll give you one more chance. Give me the fish now, or I'll go in and get it myself." Li Yao lowered her head and looked at Luo Yalan who was throwing a tantrum on the ground.
"Impossible! Why do you come to my house to take things? Once the fish enter my house, they belong to me." Luo Yalan's daughter-in-law was as unreasonable as she was.
Li Yao nodded: "First courtesy, then force. I have already been polite, so I don't need to give you face now."
She pulled a pistol from her pocket, and the neighbors stepped back, for they all knew that there was a gun in Building 43 opposite.
Li Yao said kindly: "I'm afraid you will mistake it for a toy gun, so I'll demonstrate it to you." She shot Luo Yalan who was lying on the ground. The bullet grazed Luo Yalan's face and went into the floor tiles behind her.
"Gun... grab it!" The moment the bullet passed by, Luo Yalan felt like she was going to die.
She installed a silencer so as not to disturb others. She stretched out her long legs and stepped over Luo Yalan who was blocking the door.
She entered the kitchen and looked at the fish that had been gutted. Is this family so hardworking? They managed to process dozens of big fish in just one day.
Luo Yalan was quite good at picking, and she picked up all the big fish that she had hung there.
She put the fish in a big plastic bag and carried it out. Luo Yalan's son and daughter-in-law didn't dare to touch it, but Luo Yalan did. She had risked her life to get the fish, so why could she just take it away?
"Do you want to stop me?" Li Yao pointed the gun in her hand at her again. Luo Yalan's daughter-in-law immediately covered her mother-in-law's mouth, fearing that she would say something wrong. That was a gun.
It’s not easy for a woman to have this thing nowadays.
Li Yao said to Luo Yalan: "Today I made three holes in your basin instead of your head, just to warn you that you can't take my things. Remember this in the future."
Not only warning Luo Yalan, but also warning others.
Now if someone goes out using the big basin, the information between buildings will be exchanged. After a long time, everyone will know that Building 43 is not easy to mess with.
The heavy rain has only lasted for two months, and there will be severe cold weather in the future. We will have to endure for the next two to three years.
She took the fish and went back happily to hang the gutted fish further to dry.
The people who were fishing in Building 43 were there to watch the fun. They thought that Li Yao could act so arrogantly in Building 43, but how would he behave in other buildings?
After Li Yao left, Luo Yalan burst into tears. Seeing her crying so sadly, the neighbors came over to comfort her.
Luo Yalan pushed away the nearest person and said, "I have lost all my food. You just talked a lot and nothing happened. What can a little bitch like her do? They say that all the people in Building 33 are united. What did you do just now?"
Song Zhijie, who had been hiding, showed his face: "Didn't you see the gun in her hand? You think she only had that one gun in her hand? I came out of Building 43. They had submachine guns in their hands. Three of them beat more than 60 people."
Song Zhijie was afraid that the people in Building 43 would not know their own life, so he just wanted him to come up with a plan to deal with the people on the 35th floor. He was smart, but he only had one life, so he sneaked away at night.
When he saw that figure's back just now, Song Zhijie immediately retracted his mind and decided to hide well.
The rare unity on the 33rd floor is a good thing, but it cannot be exploited for selfish motives.
When the neighbors heard that the woman had a submachine gun in her hand, they all took a step back. They had just heard Luo Yalan crying so sadly, so they gathered the people from Building 33 who were defusing the bomb and went to the opposite side to ask for an explanation.
Song Zhijie looked at Luo Yalan and said, "Everyone's life is much more important than your food. If you run out of food, you can find more. But if people are gone, what will you do with their families?"
The neighbors all listened to Song Zhijie's words. They looked at Luo Yalan with complicated feelings. They were really helping her, but she was thinking of using them.
Luo Yalan's son apologized to them: "I'm sorry, my mother lost her mind because she was so angry. She didn't mean that. The fish is indeed ours. The little girl came up and tried to grab it. My mother was so angry that she lost her mind."
Hearing her son's words, the neighbor's face looked better, and the neighbor said meaningfully: "You are not young anymore, you and your wife can't rely on your mother for the rest of your life."
Several neighbors said a few words to each other and then dispersed, thinking to stay away from the people in this family in the future as they didn't look like good people.
Now everyone on the 43rd floor knew what was going on, so they should avoid the people on the 35th floor if possible and not provoke them.
Li Yao returned home in a good mood. Yan Yuansi was lying on the ground with his arms and legs spread. Li Yao was not surprised. This was how Yan Yuansi would be after every training session.
"You still lack exercise. Sister Ning, don't be polite. As long as you don't die from exercise, then exercise until you die."
Yan Yuansi raised his head with resentment, and saw Li Yao brushing her hair without even a glance at him. He muttered softly, "Sister Yao, you are too polite. Just call me Xiao Yan."
He was scared when he heard Li Yao calling him Brother Yan, and always felt that she would punch him in the next second.
Li Yao rolled her eyes. She blew her hair carefully. She touched her smooth hair and felt that having long hair was inconvenient.
I want to cut my hair.
