The kayaks won’t arrive for three days.
Hu Qiangyong looked embarrassed.
"Sister Yun, can you please come earlier? Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow is fine. There are many people at home and we are running out of food."
Xu Yun smiled bitterly: "Being able to meet in three days is already the result of cutting in line. The person in front of me is not someone I can jump over."
"Is that so?" Hu Qiangyong scratched his head and readily prepaid the kayak rental fee. "If you can ask me to come with you, I'll remember your favor. If you run into any problems in the future, just come to me. We live on the same floor, so we can take care of each other in the future."
Sister Yun smiled brightly: "Brother is right. I'll give you a pack of compressed biscuits. When we go to the supermarket, we can buy more and we'll have enough to last."
Sister Yun is trying to win over Hu Qiangyong, Yu Xifeng thought silently.
What happened recently in the corridor made Sister Yun feel dangerous.
Hu Qiangyong obviously didn't think too much about it. He sat on the sofa and sighed: "I passed by the supermarket when I came home from get off work. I should have bought more at that time."
His family of six was struggling to make ends meet.
Sister Yun's words are so thoughtful that people don't feel any bad towards her.
The three of them agreed on a time, and considering the limited capacity of the kayak, they agreed that Hu Qiangyong would take 40% of the supplies brought back, while Sister Yun and Yu Xifeng would each take 30%.
Everyone pays for this money.
In a blink of an eye, it was the day of departure.
Yu Xifeng put on a raincoat, waterproof goggles, and carried a small bag.
All her things are in the space, and she carries a bag just to hide herself from others.
When I walked out of the room, I saw a lot of people gathered at the entrance of the corridor.
Although some people had gone out in kayaks to buy supplies, there were less than thirty families in total. It was still rare and enviable that Sister Yun could get a kayak.
Sister Yun said, "Your raincoat is really nice."
Yu Xifeng smiled.
The domestic garbage in the community is piled in the water, emitting a foul smell.
It was pouring rain, the water was covered with yellow mud, the visibility was less than three meters, both in the sky and under the water.
The scenery outside is no longer the familiar one.
Hu Qiangyong and Sister Yun both tried to steer the boat, but they kept bumping into things and couldn't steer the kayak in the direction they wanted.
It was not until Yu Xifeng got the hang of it that the kayak was successfully sailed out of the community.
It was the first time for Hu Qiangyong to be outside the community in all these days. He looked around and exclaimed in amazement: "My god, so many things were flooded by the water."
corridor.
Hu Qiangyong gave Yu Xifeng a thumbs up and said, "You are this. Fortunately, we have you. Otherwise, we would have made a fool of ourselves even if we had a kayak today."
The heavy rain was beating down on his body, and his vision was very poor, but Yu Xifeng's hands were very steady.
Following the directions given by Sister Yun, they arrived outside the supermarket in about forty minutes.
There were quite a few kayaks gathered outside the supermarket. In addition to kayaks, there were also many homemade vehicles. Yu Xifeng saw lifebuoys and kayaks floating in the water.
"You help watch the kayaks here. Brother Hu and I will swim over. If you want to buy anything, tell me." Sister Yun arranged.
Yu Xifeng had no objection: "Please buy me a few bottles of insecticide. There are cockroaches in the house."
Sister Yun nodded and swam into the supermarket using the lifebuoy.
Yu Xifeng was waiting outside.
She was wearing waterproof goggles, so her vision was relatively unrestricted. As soon as Hu Qiangyong and Sister Yun entered, Yu Xifeng felt that several people were looking over here.
She didn't see it, she felt it.
That kind of malicious feeling of being coveted.
Yu Xifeng sat silently in the kayak, adjusted his sitting position calmly, put his right hand into the bag, and grasped the dagger he took out from the space.
After a while, Sister Yun and the others still hadn't come out.
Some people intentionally or unintentionally moved closer to the kayak where Yu Xifeng was.
The kayaks outside are very expensive, no less than gold bracelets before a rainstorm.
It was noisy all around, people were snatching things and pushing people into the water, and they couldn't even shout.
So what if someone heard it? It was raining so hard that even if someone came by boat, they wouldn’t find anything.
Wu Yuan gripped the iron rod tightly, aimed at Yu Xifeng's thin back, and made up his mind.
The iron rod came down on his head, and Yu Xifeng seemed to have eyes on his back. He bent his waist and dodged it.
Wu Yuan's eyes flashed with ferocity. Seeing that his blow failed, he said angrily, "Get out of here. Do you hear me?"
Yu Xifeng rowed the boat with one hand and kicked the man in the jaw.
Kayaks are not very strong due to their material.
This kick caused the man's boat to move a little, relieving some of the force.
Yu Xifeng quickly adjusted his center of gravity and stood swiftly on the man's kayak.
"Bitch, you're looking for death!" Wu Yuan raised the stick high.
The stick did not hit Wu Yuan, but he felt a pain in his chest. He lowered his head in surprise and saw a dagger stuck in it. Blood oozed out of it and mixed with the rain water.
He opened his eyes wide in disbelief and fell heavily. The last scene before his death was Yu Xifeng's condescending eyes.
Those eyes were calm and extremely cold.
Regret and fear brought Wu Yuan into the abyss of death.
Yu Xifeng kicked him again.
A string of bubbles floated up beside the kayak. The moment Wu Yuan's body sank into the water, Yu Xifeng reached his hand into the water.
The body disappeared completely.
Through the rain curtain, this scene was blocked by Yu Xifeng's back, and no one saw the dagger in the man's chest.
The water surface was turbid, with raindrops of varying sizes hitting it. If you didn't look carefully you couldn't see the surging water below.
So no one saw Wu Yuan's body disappear out of thin air.
Yu Xifeng returned to Xu Yun's kayak, holding the leash of Wu Yuan's kayak in his hand, and sat back down.
As if nothing happened.
After waiting for nearly another hour, Hu Qiang bravely squeezed out of the crowd, panting.
He was carrying two large bags, which, at a rough glance, contained at least 60 kilograms of rice, a large bag of potatoes, sweet potatoes and noodles, as well as flour and glutinous rice flour, with eggs and vegetables on top.
Yu Xifeng helped carry the things onto the kayak.
Hu Qiangyong said, "It just so happened that the supermarket was restocking today, and they were sold out as soon as they were released. Xu Yun still has some left, but I wonder if a kayak can hold so much."
"There is another one here." Yu Xifeng pointed behind him.
Wu Yuan's kayak has no personal characteristics and looks very ordinary.
Hu Qiangyong was stunned: "Where did it come from?"
"I just met a scalper and bought it from him." Yu Xifeng lied without changing his expression.
"That's great." Hu Qiangyong slapped his thigh, "Xiao Yu, wait here, I'll go buy some more."
Having said that, he turned around and squeezed back into the supermarket.
Yu Xifeng touched his nose.
Sister Yun also came out. She and Hu Qiangyong split up into two groups to grab goods. They bought long-lasting food and brought back a lot of things.
She was also pleasantly surprised to see the second kayak.
Sister Yun's boat was borrowed, and if you borrow something you have to return it. Yu Xifeng has a kayak, and since we live on the same floor, it will be much more convenient for us to go out and buy things later.
She stuffed a bag into Yu Xifeng's hand.
It was the insecticide that Yu Xifeng wanted, and Sister Yun also bought two bottles for herself.
Yu Xifeng took it, and the two of them sat in the kayak and waited for Hu Qiangyong together.
After the kayak was loaded with food, there were more stares.
Xu Yun stood at the bow, holding a kitchen knife, looking around vigilantly.
