Chapter 154 Object of Suspicion
Lu Yuan knew that Han Ying was angry. Looking at the hand that had been broken free, he gently held it again.
"It's different. Your crossbow is too powerful. The man might die on the spot after you shoot him. I'm using a nail gun. He should have a few days to live. If we're lucky, he might not die."
"Our goal today is not to kill anyone, but to let the people in this building know that we are not easy to mess with."
"If we killed the man on the spot, the authorities would definitely come to our door, but if I just injured him, that would be different."
"The most important thing is that after we kill Wang Zhen, the people who instigated him to cause trouble can rest easy. In that case, the enemy will be in the dark while we will be in the light, which is disadvantageous to us."
"If you want to kill them, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. There's no need to sacrifice yourself now. They're not worth it."
Han Ying was a little impulsive just now, but she knew she knew her limits.
Just now she just wanted to shoot the man in the thigh, she didn't intend to kill him on the spot.
She didn't believe that Lu Yuan couldn't see what she was planning.
So Han Ying knew that everything Lu Yuan said was actually just an excuse he made for the future.
The real reason is that even if the authorities come to him and he takes action, it will be him they look for, not Han Ying.
Although Han Ying didn't think she needed this feeling of being protected, she felt happy about it.
This boyfriend was not made in vain.
"You have a point, but I value my life more than anyone else. You don't have to think about protecting me all the time. I know my limits when it comes to these things."
Hearing Han Ying's words, Lu Yuan just smiled and replied "OK".
Although he agreed, he should protect his woman when necessary.
This has nothing to do with how powerful Han Ying is or whether she has a sense of propriety.
Once the matter was talked out, it was over and Han Ying didn't want to dwell on it too much.
Being woken up at this time, the two people and the dog couldn't fall asleep anymore, so they simply took out their tablets to watch TV series and had a meal in the air-conditioned room.
The table was filled with food, and there was a plate of braised pork that Lu Yuan had prepared and stored in the basement.
There are also boiled beef, cold shredded chicken, stir-fried king crab, sweet and sour pork, shrimp and broccoli, shredded potatoes with green peppers, and radish meatball soup.
Shredded potatoes with green peppers is a new dish that Lu Yuan has learned to make.
He spent seven or eight days in the space learning how to make this dish before it was roughly ready.
During this period, Han Ying often teased him that he was clumsy.
Han Ying finally understood why Lu Yuan always ate boiled vegetables with dipping sauce before.
When she first started learning, she just watched Lu Yuan do it.
She saw that all the steps were correct and the amount of seasonings was also correct.
But the dishes he cooked tasted weird, and even she, who would not waste food easily, couldn't eat them.
Just for this one dish, it took him seven or eight days to learn it with her watching over him, which shows how much effort he must have put in learning to cook other dishes.
Fortunately, the dozens of bad pots were mixed with other things and ended up in the stomachs of the livestock in the space, so it wasn't considered a waste.
Han Ying told him not to learn anymore. She had already stockpiled a lot of cooked food anyway. Even with the addition of Lu Yuan, it would be enough for twenty to thirty years.
However, Lu Yuan still insisted on learning. He said that he would learn as many dishes as he could, as all the cooked food he had stockpiled would eventually be eaten up.
No one knows how the world will change in the future. What if one day they have to live with other people and don’t have many opportunities to enter the space to cook?
So take advantage of the opportunity now to stock up more.
Knowing Lu Yuan’s concerns, Han Ying actually thought the same thing in her heart. Could this be a sequelae of rebirth in the apocalypse?
Therefore, whenever he has free time, Lu Yuan will cook the dishes he knows in the space and put them in the basement in boxes.
He also made a lot of small rice balls, really small, the kind you could eat one in one bite.
The rice balls contain a variety of chopped ingredients fried by Han Ying, which provide both carbohydrates and vitamins and proteins.
Lu Yuan was willing to stock up on more cooked food, and Han Ying was happy to see it happen, so that she would have more time to draw space symbols, exercise, and train the dog.
Fortunately, she bought enough disposable lunch boxes, and those that were used could be washed and reused.
Otherwise, the cooked food they stockpiled would be enough to last for 20 to 30 years, and the disposable lunch boxes alone would be a huge number.
Tangyuan's appetite seemed to have grown again. Han Ying shared a lot of the other dishes with Tangyuan except the king crab.
I also filled its bowl with half a bowl of rice, dog food and canned dog food.
After showing off all these, it will eat a bowl of watermelon to feel satisfied.
Han Ying and Lu Yuan had finished the rest of the food and were now watching TV series while eating some fruit after dinner.
"Do you have any suspects?"
Han Ying broke open a mangosteen and heard Lu Yuan's voice coming over.
"For someone who can afford the bribe and has a grudge against us, do we need to guess? But that person is too petty. Is it worth making such a big fuss over such a small matter?"
In fact, Han Ying was thinking about this question while eating just now. After thinking about it, it seems that there is only one family that meets the requirements.
The situation at the stairs today was obviously aimed at her.
The person in this building who has the deepest hatred for Han Ying is Wang Mingliang, but Wang Mingliang does not have the ability to incite these people to come and cause trouble.
The other grudges were just minor ones in the past, and they wouldn't wait until now to cause trouble.
Who else could it be these days besides that family?
"Don't underestimate human nature. Some people are the kind who only allow officials to set fires but not allow ordinary people to light lamps. If someone offends them, they will definitely tear off a layer of skin from the other person to feel relieved."
"Leave this matter to me. I won't let them off easily."
Since that family bears a grudge against Han Ying, it is always a hidden danger that must be eliminated.
"Who are you looking down on? I am the one who offended them. Don't take all the blame on me."
Hearing Lu Yuan's words, Han Ying sat up straight and looked at him.
"Okay, the wife follows the husband's lead. I'll be there to hand you the knife if you want to do anything."
Lu Yuan put down the half-eaten orange in his hand and put his arm around Han Ying.
Han Ying's body stiffened when she was suddenly hugged.
But then she thought, they were already together, so a hug didn't seem to be a big deal.
Feeling the person in his arms soften, Lu Yuan hugged her tighter.
But he didn't do much, just hugged her.
Take your time and don't scare people.
After staying at Han Ying's house for a while, Lu Yuan went home.
After changing into the constant temperature suit, Lu Yuan opened the balcony and moved the two water towers that had been exposed to the sun for several hours outside into the basement.
There are no photovoltaic panels installed on his balcony, so sunlight can still shine in.
Han Ying asked him to put a few water tanks in the basement on the balcony to bask in the sun every day.
Under such high temperatures, the water in the water tower can become boiling hot in just a few hours.
100 degrees is definitely not possible, but 70 or 80 degrees is still fine.
Of course, this water is not needed now, but it will come in handy when the weather gets cold.
