Chapter 215 Waiting for the Riots to Subside
At this moment, the atmosphere at the entrance of the residence was somewhat awkward.
Li Shurou was somewhat worried that the rioters might return, but she still stood at the front dutifully, never putting down the Gatling gun in her hand.
But the rioters were too scared to do anything; they were terrified...
"Uh... she's a doctor, after all. How could she have such violent tendencies?"
Han Shuo muttered to himself, shook his head with a wry smile, and then turned around and gave Li Shurou a thumbs up.
He had always known that the only woman in his team was very fierce.
Unexpectedly, Li Shurou was so fierce that she even brought out a Gatling gun.
"I'm afraid that if those thugs had run a step later, she really would have opened fire..."
After today, Han Shuo has unconsciously attached a label to Li Shurou.
This label has only three words engraved on it:
Tomboy!
Moreover, it's the kind of label that, once attached, can never be removed...
The fat man beside her remained silent, staring at her with a strange look, his thoughts unreadable.
At this moment, Chen Hai timidly whispered from behind.
“Hey kid, they’re all gone. Why don’t you put down your gun? It looks kind of heavy…”
After saying this, Li Shurou came to her senses.
She pouted and complained.
"Hmph, there was never a chance to fire. The last time I used the flamethrower, it was the same..."
"I'm annoyed, I'm annoyed!"
Then, with a bang, Li Shurou threw the Gatling gun to the ground and immediately stepped forward to support Chen Hai's arm.
"Uncle Hai, you must be frightened. Come on, let me help you to the house to rest."
"Oh, by the way, Uncle Hai, it's been a long time since I've had your cooking."
In the next sentence, Li Shurou even had a slightly coquettish tone, which was quite a contrast to her previous manner.
"Okay, okay, I'll make it for you right away."
"But we're out of ingredients at home right now. Will you have time later?"
"It's okay, it's okay, I'm available anytime."
Chen Hai responded intermittently and followed Li Shurou inside.
He was indeed frightened, but the reason for his fright—whether it came from being chased by the thugs or from Li Shurou…
Who can say for sure?
After the two left, the fat man quickly picked up the Gatling gun from the ground and stroked it tenderly.
"Oh dear, you can't just throw it away when you're done playing with it. What if you break such a good thing?"
"Alright, stop talking nonsense. It's still chaotic outside. Let's go inside."
Han Shuo laughed and kicked the fat man, then turned and went inside.
As soon as he entered the room, he realized that Xiao Zhao and Wai Di didn't seem to be inside.
Feeling a bit confused, he turned around and asked a question.
"Fatty, where are Xiao Zhao and Wai Di?"
The fat man's gaze remained fixed on the Gatling gun. After closing the door, he responded without even looking up.
"Oh, I sent them to Dr. Lin's house. Wasn't there a riot outside? The nearby guards have all been withdrawn."
"No wonder. But Dr. Lin has a distinguished status here; he probably has family members protecting him."
"Who cares? As long as Shurou and I stay here to look after things, it's enough. Even if Dr. Lin's family doesn't need Xiao Zhao and Wai Di's protection, it's still a token of our goodwill."
Han Shuo stepped forward approvingly, patted the fat man on the shoulder, and offered a few simple words of praise.
This kid is shrewd; probably because he's good at socializing, he's much better at dealing with people than I am.
Han Shuo walked into the living room and saw that Chen Hai was still only wearing a pair of shorts. He gave him an order.
"Fatty, go find Uncle Hai a couple of clothes."
"Oh, okay."
Soon, the fat man took out a set of clothes he had worn and handed them over.
"Uncle Hai, you can wear mine for now."
"well."
Chen Hai thanked him and took the clothes, then quickly put them on. The clothes were a bit big, but he had gained some weight, so apart from being a little loose, they still looked fairly well-fitting.
Han Shuo sat on the sofa and said with a smile.
"Uncle Hai, please stay here for now. It's too dangerous outside right now with the riots. It's much safer here."
Chen Hai's eyes revealed gratitude. If Han Shuo had arrived any later today, he would probably be dead already.
Good people don't like to trouble others, and they will remember this kindness deeply in their hearts.
"Thank you, thank you..."
Not long after, Xiao Zhao and Wai Di also returned from Dr. Lin's place.
Before entering, Xiao Zhao saw the four corpses outside and asked anxiously.
"Brother Han, are you all alright?"
Han Shuo shook his head and spoke.
"It's nothing. By the way, didn't Fatty tell you two to protect Dr. Lin? Why are you back?"
Xiao Zhao also saw Chen Hai. He first nodded to Chen Hai, and then responded.
"Brother Han, Dr. Lin isn't home. Only his wife is home. Wai Di and I took her to Dr. Lin's workplace and then came back."
"The two elders are safe over there now; they have people specifically protecting them."
"I see," Han Shuo nodded in understanding.
Just then, the fat man sitting next to the sofa started to rumble in his stomach.
Actually, it wasn't just him; everyone present was already starving.
The riot broke out suddenly, and Han Shuo and the others were caught up in it before they could even react.
They didn't even have a chance to retrieve the food from the car.
At this time, there was absolutely no food left in the entire settlement.
Without prior arrangement, everyone's eyes were drawn to Han Shuo.
"Uh... don't look at me, I have no choice. I can't exactly go to the car to get food now, can I?"
Han Shuo gave a wry smile and continued.
"Alright, alright, I reckon the guards will calm this riot down soon. Just bear with it for now; you won't die from starving for a day or two anyway."
"Oh, okay," the fat man said, looking down and rubbing his stomach.
Han Shuo then gave everyone a few more instructions, telling them not to go out for the next two days and to stay home obediently.
As for other matters, we'll discuss them after the riots outside are over.
Everyone knew the seriousness of the matter and nodded in agreement.
In fact, apart from Chen Hai, the other five people present were not too flustered, and they all seemed indifferent to the situation.
Putting aside having a good mindset, the most important thing is that it is indeed safer to stay in our place of residence at present.
Without professional prying tools, it's impossible to get in from the outside, and most of the rioters are ordinary survivors with few firearms.
Moreover, it should be noted that Han Shuo and his group also have a large amount of military equipment here.
Any thugs who dare to come will surely die.
After sitting in the living room for a while, Han Shuo returned to his room.
I closed the door and sat alone on the bed.
"Sigh, I wonder how Brother Yaonan and the others are doing."
But thinking about it, it makes sense. Although Cheng Shenghong and his group had just entered the underground research institute, he had already informed them of some precautions on the way.
"I suppose everything should be alright."
As for Qingyu, there's even less need for him to worry.
No longer worrying, Han Shuo leaned back and lay flat on the bed, looking up at the ceiling. He felt very calm and murmured to himself.
"How many people will die in the underground research institute today?"
