Chapter 152 The Building is Surrounded
After putting on her clothes, Han Ying looked through the peephole and saw Wu Tingfang knocking on the door anxiously.
After opening the door, before she had time to ask what happened, Han Ying heard a noise coming from the stairs.
"I don't care. Anyway, you have electricity on the 27th floor, so you should connect a line out."
"That's right, we can't use air conditioning or fans, but at least let us boil some water and cook!"
"Otherwise, if we drink raw water and eat rotten food and die from diarrhea, it will be your responsibility on the 27th floor!"
....
"Some people downstairs heard from somewhere that we have electricity on the 27th floor, so many of them came up and asked us to share the electricity with them. Da Hu and Xiao Lu are already there."
Wu Tingfang and her family were closest to the stairs, and the soundproofing in their house was not very good, so they were the first to hear someone knocking on the door.
There seemed to be more than a dozen people there, and when they went out, some of them were using crowbars to pry open the door.
So Lei Minghu called Lu Yuan out first, and then Wu Tingfang came to knock on Han Ying's door.
Hearing that there were more than a dozen people gathered outside, Han Ying returned to the room and took out a three-arrow crossbow and some crossbow arrows from the space.
Then he brought Tangyuan to the stairs, and Han Ying saw Lu Yuan with his hands behind his back and a nail gun on his lower back.
Lei Minghu also had his hands behind his back, holding a kitchen knife.
Then the two of them just watched as a dozen people outside accused them.
The door at the entrance of the stairs has several hollows made of steel pipes.
People outside can be seen through these cutouts.
There were more than ten people gathered outside, all of them sweating profusely. The sour smell that came to their faces made Han Ying frown.
These people were all unkempt and had yellow teeth.
And everyone had a tool or a weapon in their hands.
Most people were holding kitchen knives like Lei Minghu, some were holding crowbars, and a few were holding fire axes and steel pipes that were taken from somewhere.
It seems like he is not here to borrow electricity from them, but to take their lives.
"Hey, the dog owner is here?"
A middle-aged man saw Han Ying and the big dog following her and made a fearless joke.
Woof~
Get away if you disturb my sweet dreams!
Hearing the barking of the dog, the noisy crowd outside suddenly quieted down.
They thought about how terrible the dog was.
But soon these people stopped worrying.
Because although the door isolated them outside, it also kept the dog inside, so they were not afraid.
Not only that, seeing that the big dog had gained some weight, several people's eyes suddenly lit up green.
The fact that he is so fat shows that there is no shortage of food at home.
Moreover, the dog itself is food. It has at least a hundred kilograms of meat, which is enough for them to have a big meal.
"Look everyone, their faces and bodies are very clean. Who knows how much water and food they have stored at home."
"That's right. Look how fat this dog is. We have enough food left over to feed the dog. I don't know how much more food we have stored at home."
"No matter what, you have to connect a line for us today..."
"We all live in the same building. Why is it that while we all don't have enough to eat, you still have surplus food to feed your dog?"
"Look at this pretty boy, he's so fair, even fairer than the little girl. There's no dirt on his face or neck, he must have a lot of water stored at home."
"I was wondering why the water flow became smaller and smaller later. Maybe the water in the bathroom on the rooftop was stolen by the people on the 27th floor."
...
Are you saying that these people don’t have enough food to eat?
The official side is recruiting workers. If you can't go to the farm, you can earn a lot of points every day by moving bricks at the base.
It’s bad enough that they are too lazy to go out to work, but they are putting the blame on the people on the 27th floor?
Saying they stole water from the rooftop?
It was a waste that Han Ying had poured water into the water room for them to drink.
"How do you know we have electricity on the 27th floor?"
When they brought back the photovoltaic generator, they were indeed seen by someone.
But it's not right that so many people with weapons come to your door at the same time, right?
Especially now that communication equipment is no longer usable, how did these people get together?
Did they also discuss this while they were escaping the heat in the underground parking lot?
But looking at the posture, it doesn't look like he's here to borrow electricity, it looks more like he's been instigated by someone to cause trouble for them!
"What? You have electricity, but you're afraid that others will know about it? We don't want much from you. Just connect a line to the stairs and let us take turns to boil water and cook here."
The middle-aged man who had just teased Han Ying for bringing the dog over was knocking on the door with the steel pipe in his hand.
"They use solar energy. The sunlight is not theirs. We also have a share! They use our sunlight to generate electricity. What's wrong with sharing some with us? Everyone, do you think this makes sense?"
Lu Yuan and the others finally realized that this middle-aged man was the one who started the trouble.
They chose to cause trouble at the hottest time of the day, at noon. Aren’t they just afraid of being purged by the authorities like the previous group of people?
Moreover, the communication equipment is no longer usable, and there is no way to call the police, so these people are even more unscrupulous in their actions.
"Not only that, you have to return the water you stole from the upstairs bathroom to us. It doesn't make sense that we don't even have water to drink, but you still have water to bathe and wash your hair, right?"
The middle-aged man saw that everyone around him nodded to indicate that what he said made sense, so he increased his intensity.
There is not much water at home nowadays, who wouldn’t want to have some free water?
"Tell me, how much reward did the other party give you?"
Han Ying walked out from the side, took a step forward and looked at the middle-aged man.
Seeing Han Ying walking forward, Lu Yuan followed directly beside her.
Although the door is closed, it has a hollowed-out interior.
He was always on the lookout for anyone who might want to launch a sneak attack.
The gap at the bottom is smaller, but the gaps on the left and right sides of the lock are still large enough to allow you to put your hand in sideways.
"What bribe? What nonsense are you talking about? They must have guessed what I said, and now they are distorting the truth and slandering me?"
When the middle-aged man heard Han Ying talking about the kickback, he paused noticeably.
But soon he smiled and looked at others, wanting them to agree with him.
"You help someone and they don't give you any benefits? That means you are worse than a lackey?"
Lei Minghu, who was standing next to Wu Tingfang, took out the kitchen knife in his hand and glared at the middle-aged man.
"Oh, look at them. They are angry and humiliated. Am I right? They must have a lot of supplies."
"That's right, with such a big door installed here, how many supplies are hidden in the house?"
"Hurry up and open the door. We are almost starving and dying of thirst, and you still have water to take a bath. Where is justice?"
"You've made your dog so fat, who would believe you if you said you didn't have any supplies?"
"That's right, open the door quickly and hand over the supplies and water!"
"Open the door~~"
