"I'm interested in the novel you told me about. Can you tell me the details?"
Director Ning stared at Jiang Fei, observing her reaction.
Jiang Fei looked normal: "It's been too long, I can't remember clearly."
Don't try to trick her!
"That's a shame. Are you guys going downstairs?"
Jiang Fei: "We are going to the community to collect supplies."
"Okay, I want to go to the community too. Let's go together." Director Ning put on a mask, said goodbye to Old Mrs. Xu, and went downstairs with Xu Qianyao.
Jiang Fei and three others followed behind.
The ice in the corridors on each floor has been cleaned up, and the broken glass windows have been nailed shut with wooden boards and covered with thick insulation boards.
The rest of the windows are intact, with insulation strips and windshield cloth pasted around them.
Only one window was left open on each floor for ventilation to prevent residents from coal poisoning.
The doors of the rooms were removed before for burning, and now cotton curtains have been installed.
Although it is not very safe, it is warm and windproof.
Residents stayed at home to keep warm, and from time to time they could hear coughing coming from behind the cotton curtains.
Director Ning suddenly spoke in a low voice: "Recently, many people have had coughing, vomiting, and fever. We have sent people to investigate. We don't know if it is the flu or an unknown disease."
"In the past four months, Lincheng has experienced floods, rat plagues, insect plagues, snake plagues, and mosquito plagues. Now it is facing extreme cold and disease. What kind of test do you think God will give to mankind next?"
Director Ning seemed to be chatting, but he slowed down and glanced at Jiang Fei behind him.
Jiang Fei said calmly: "I don't know."
Lu Yu and the other two gave the same answer.
Director Ning smiled but said nothing. He did not ask any further questions and walked towards the Yulanyuan community.
The original community was located at the east gate of Magnolia Garden. It was a bungalow that was basically frozen over. So the authorities placed a rectangular movable container house on the open space as the location for the new community.
The container house occupies an area of about one square meter and has two windows for residents to line up to receive supplies.
To prevent any trouble, four armed soldiers were stationed nearby.
The line was not long, and Jiang Fei quickly used his ID card to collect a small bag of supplies.
Inside was a 250ml bottle of water, a 100g bag of bread, and two loose fruit candies.
If a person eats and drinks sparingly, he can barely survive a day.
Better than going hungry all the time.
Some people don't think so. They took the supplies to the community window and said, "I was able to get biscuits and instant noodles a few days ago. Why is the food getting less and less?"
"Who can be full with just this little food?"
"Come out here! We must make things clear today!"
The man slammed the container and yelled for an explanation.
Only when a soldier came over with a gun did the man stop and run away in shame.
Lu Yu and others also lined up to receive the supplies and stood at the end next to Jiang Fei.
Director Ning looked at the things in their hands and sighed: "Do you also think that the supplies we distributed are too few?"
"There is no other way. Right now, supplies are in short supply. There is simply not enough for the tens of thousands of people in Lincheng. We can only reduce the supply."
"If it weren't for the supplies sent from above and the food seized from the Zhenhu Gang, I'm afraid many people would have starved to death."
Jiang Fei pretended to be dumbfounded: "Where is the Zhenhu Gang?"
Director Ning said vaguely: "We are just a small gang. It's cold outside. Take the supplies and go home quickly. Don't catch a cold."
"Goodbye, Director Ning."
After Jiang Fei and the others left, Xu Qianyao, who followed Director Ning, couldn't help but ask curiously, "Director, why have you been testing Jiang Fei all the way?"
"Jiang Fei is a good girl and has never done anything bad."
Anyway, he hasn't seen it.
Director Ning asked back: "Do you believe that the novel Jiang Fei mentioned is real?"
"When a disaster occurs in Lincheng, it's almost the same as what she said."
"Moreover, just as the Zhenhu Gang had just caused trouble for her, they were ambushed by a group of mysterious people."
Xu Qianyao scratched his head: "Maybe it's a combination?"
"That's too much, that's the problem. You live on the 21st floor, keep an eye on Jiang Fei, and report any movement she makes to me."
"If there is any news from the Institute of Medical Sciences, tell me immediately."
Director Ning prayed in his heart.
Hopefully those people just had the common flu.
If there is another disaster, Lincheng will not be able to hold on.

Building A.
Xiao Chuxia looked worried and lowered her voice: "Miss, Director Ning suddenly mentioned the Zhenhu Gang. Could it be that he discovered something?"
Ling Zhaorui: "I think he has been testing Sister Jiang all the way."
"What is the novel Director Ning mentioned?"
"I read a book before." Jiang Fei changed the subject:
"Everyone stay on the 22nd floor recently. Don't go out unless necessary."
Without evidence, even if Director Ning suspected her, there was nothing he could do.
Xiao Chuxia and Ling Zhaorui nodded obediently.
Lu Yu reminded: "Everyone, go and hide the dangerous goods in case they raid the place."
Jiang Fei agreed with Lu Yu's words and suddenly smelled a faint smell of cigarettes.
Near the stairs, the cotton door curtain at 1701 was opened, and a cloud of white smoke came out.
"Ahem, you can't close the door curtain tightly, otherwise the air won't circulate and we'll be poisoned."
Jiang Zhengkang, wearing a worn cotton-padded jacket, hung up the cotton door curtain and looked at Jiang Fei and others at the stairs.
Jiang Zhengkang was delighted at first, then he rubbed his hands helplessly: "I'm sorry Feifei, the gun you left for me that day was taken away by the authorities."
"They thought I was picking up the trash and wanted to carry it up..."
"Beautiful girl, standing at the mountain pass~~~" The singing in the room interrupted Jiang Zhengkang's words.
Hearing it was Li Yanping's voice, Jiang Fei raised his eyebrows.
My aunt is still alive.
Pretty good at hiding.
Seeing Jiang Fei looking at 1701, thinking she was going to drive Li Yanping away, Jiang Zhengkang quickly explained: "Yanping is crazy, she will never bother you again."
Jiang Fei was surprised: "Crazy?"
"Maybe she was frightened by the gunshots, and Zixuan's disappearance also shocked her, so she became paranoid."
"I originally wanted to take her to a small villa to recuperate, but it was occupied by someone else. We could only come to Magnolia Court and find an empty house to live in."
She also wanted to see how miserable Jiang Zixuan looked now.
Jiang Fei walked upstairs disappointedly, without any intention of helping Li Yanping and Jiang Zhengkang.
The debt of gratitude in the previous life has been repaid, and how Jiang Zhengkang lives has nothing to do with her.
As for Li Yanping, she has to continue paying her debts even if she goes crazy.

Recently, Jiang Fei had some free time, so he took out the cat supplies and toys he found in Ya'an Comprehensive Market and started sorting them out.
There are cat scratching posts, cat nests, cat teasers, high-legged ceramic bowls, pet combs, hanging plush mice, and silent balls in various colors.
After disinfection, Jiang Fei packed the things into boxes and sent them to 2203.
Xiao Chuxia and Ling Zhaorui were training with Lu Yu.
Dahuang slumped comfortably on the sofa with his belly exposed, looking like an old man watching the fun. He was not as listless as he was in the past few days.
"These are the ones I found before. They can be used for Da Huang."
As soon as Jiang Fei put the box on the ground, Da Huang couldn't wait to run down and get in.
Holding the stuffed mouse toy in its mouth, it jumped out of the box and ran away to play.
I wanted to touch Da Huang secretly but I didn't touch Jiang Fei, his eyes were dim.
In the past, Dahuang always came to her to hold him first!
Bad cat!
Lu Yu: "Do you want to practice?"
Jiang Fei was about to agree when the doorbell rang suddenly.
"I'll open the door."
Hiding the dagger behind him, Jiang Fei came to the stairs and turned on the power switch.
Feng Chenlu wore a transparent protective mask and panted: "Come with me downstairs for the check-up."
