Chapter 170 This is a ruthless person
After a quick breakfast, Tan Zhaozhao stuffed the family's most valuable cub into his arms, slung a random load of keys, a tablet, and various canned cat food, freeze-dried cat food, cat toys, etc. on his back, and then he and Li Shan each took an umbrella and casually went out.
Coincidentally, while waiting for the elevator, the door in the corridor was also pushed open from the inside.
Hearing the noise, Tan Zhaozhao and Li Shan turned around unconsciously.
He was dressed in a similar outfit, with a baseball cap pulled down deliberately, a black mask covering his face, and a garbage takeaway bag in his hand.
The three people's eyes met briefly.
Tan Zhaozhao's body was unnaturally tense for a moment.
As the footsteps got closer, Tan Zhaozhao vaguely heard her own heartbeat getting more and more intense, but she was still staring at the elevator floor numbers that kept jumping. On the surface, there seemed to be nothing unusual, but in fact, her palms were already filled with sticky cold sweat.
The footsteps stopped behind her.
Tan Zhaozhao's shoulders hidden under her clothes were already tense, and the fingers hanging by her sides twitched slightly unconsciously.
"Meow~" A soft cat's meow came from her arms.
Tan Zhaozhao's body stiffened, and then suddenly relaxed.
She lowered her head and met the watery, round eyes of the kitten she had hidden inside her windbreaker.
There seems to be a little worry about humans hidden in it.
A cat's meow successfully broke the awkward and tense silence while waiting for the elevator.
Li Shan came over with a smile, using this posture to protect Tan Zhaozhao in front of her, and then teased the little orange cat that was peeking out of Tan Zhaozhao's arms with a carefree smile.
"Xingxing, that's not how kittens meow. Come and learn from me, meow~miao-meow~"
The star-like cat eyes looked at her, and after two seconds of silence, they followed her and chirped: "Meow~Ah~"
Li Shan: “Pfft.”
She couldn't help but smile and asked Tan Zhaozhao: "Isn't this considered a completely wrong process but a completely right result?"
Tan Zhaozhao also had a soft smile in his eyes, and the purring kitten's little head praised with a hundred layers of filters: "Xingxing is awesome! Xingxing is indeed the smartest kitten in the world!"
Behind them on the right, Song Qianyi, who was thinking about where to go today to collect more supplies, was interrupted by the movement of two people and a cat.
She raised her head slightly, and her beautiful and pure eyes under her baseball cap quietly watched the backs of the two people.
Perhaps, ignorance is also a kind of bliss.
They don't know about the impending horrific doomsday disaster, so they won't be as worried as I am. They can still smile and play with cats, go out shopping happily, and live the normal life that all ordinary people live.
"bite--"
The elevator has arrived.
Song Qianyi followed the two people in. The two people who had entered in front had already pressed the elevator for the first floor and the basement.
The elevator went down and soon more people came in, squeezing the three of them into different corners.
Feeling the silent but lively atmosphere, Tan Zhaozhao, who had been nervous all the time, breathed a sigh of relief silently. She pinched the thin and cool ears of the kitten in her arms, put it carefully in her tucked away, and did not speak again as the elevator went down.
Li Shan always stayed by her side. The two girls had secrets and worries that only each other knew, but they supported each other and had enough courage to act normal and calm.
I thought this encounter would end here.
But how could the reborn protagonist avoid the troubles that keep coming to him?
So the three people who had just separated soon bumped into each other again at the only gate in the community that could shelter from the rain.
Tan Zhaozhao and Li Shan: "..."
They did not get closer, but instead watched the noise at the gate from a distance, holding umbrellas.
The girl who was dressed very mysteriously and did not show her face just now was now surrounded by a group of men, women, young and old. The hat on her head was lifted and the mask was taken off, revealing a pretty face.
But now the expression on that face is even gloomier than this rainy day.
Amid the sound of the cascading rain, Tan Zhaozhao heard the middle-aged woman who was pulling the girl's wrist yelling, "Song Qianyi, I'm warning you, don't think you can scare anyone with a few harsh words. I raised you with good food and drink, but I didn't expect that you would raise an ungrateful person. If you still have a conscience, take out the money from selling your house and use it to buy a house for your brother to get married! Otherwise, none of us will forgive you, a freeloader!!"
"...Is this her family member?" Tan Zhaozhao couldn't help but frown.
The sudden appearance of a group of people tore off the mysterious veil surrounding Song Qianyi in an instant, and also made Tan Zhaozhao and Li Shan finally feel that the other person was still alive and still living in this society.
Li Shan shook her head and saw that the taxi she had taken was about to arrive. She lowered her head to cancel the call and then, using the cover of her umbrella, looked around the community.
Finally, it was discovered that the plainclothes officer who was suspected to be under police surveillance... was most likely among the crowd of onlookers at the front gate.
She was speechless for a moment, and quickly pulled Tan Zhaozhao over.
In just a short while, the woman who looked particularly shrewish had grabbed Song Qianyi and started beating and scolding her.
The unpleasant words were uttered sharply and piercingly, and the people watching the excitement couldn't help but frown. Coupled with the crackling sound of rain that filled the entire sky and earth, it made people feel inexplicably irritated.
Tan Zhaozhao put away her umbrella and squeezed into the crowd with Li Shan. She heard someone trying to persuade that family not to bully a single girl, saying it would not look good no matter what.
The person involved just stood there with his head down and disheveled hair like a piece of wood, allowing this family to push and blame him.
There was no trace of the indifference and ruthlessness in his eyes that night.
At this time, the woman was again irritated by the accusations of the onlookers.
She didn't care about her face at all. She suddenly raised her voice sharply and shouted at the others angrily: "What do you know? Her parents died when she was just born. Everyone said that she was an unlucky star. Our family worked hard to raise her, hoping that she would be successful and grateful when she grew up. In the end, I worked hard for more than 20 years, but I raised such an ungrateful person!!"
In the silence of everyone, the woman's voice became even more piercing, and she shrieked, "Not only that, she also sold my house! That was the new house my son was going to get married in! Now that he has lost his house, my son can't even find a wife. She is such a conscienceless jinx, I should have strangled her to death back then!!"
Ah this...
Hearing this, even the onlookers couldn't help but cast strange glances at the silent Song Qianyi.
This sounds quite heartless.
Just as they were thinking this, Song Qianyi, who had remained silent the entire time, seemed to be finally forced to explode.
She suddenly broke free from the woman's hand that was tightly grasping her wrist, and then in front of everyone, she raised her hand and slapped the other person hard.
The sound of the slap was so crisp...even the heavy rain couldn't cover up the sound, and it was clearly and firmly transmitted to everyone's ears.
Everyone: “…hiss!”
They all stepped back and gasped.
Good, good sound!
Looking at the woman covering her face with her hands and staring with eyes wide open, I guess she was stunned by the beating and half of her face was numb, right?
Those who just felt that Song Qianyi was a little girl who was forced into such a weak position also quietly retreated back into the crowd and stopped saying anything.
After all, this matter doesn't seem to be just a simple case of the majority bullying the minority.
It seems that the fighting power of both sides should not be underestimated.
Song Qianyi didn't care about other people's reactions at all. She never stopped after she started.
Her methods and actions were particularly cruel. She first slapped the woman in the face, and then kicked a middle-aged man hard in the buttocks. Amid the man's painful wails, she reached out and grabbed the young boy who was trying to hide. The moment he opened his mouth to call her sister, she pulled his scalp back and pushed him hard with her knees.
“What the hell!!”
Li Shan pulled Tan Zhaozhao back to the corner.
"This is a ruthless person." She commented with a bit of toothache: "Although she has no martial arts foundation, has no method for attacking, and her physical fitness is not up to par, but her method is even more terrifying than directly attacking the vital points!"
Tan Zhaozhao was also a little stunned.
She asked, "Can you beat her?"
She is actually more rational than Li Shan. When she saw this farce, the first thing she considered in her mind was Song Qianyi's fighting ability.
Li Shan raised her chin and said firmly, "Of course. Don't compare me with her. We are not at the same level. If I can't even beat her, my dad will punish me to death if he finds out."
"Then let's go." Tan Zhaozhao opened the umbrella again and took out his cell phone to hail a taxi.
"Don't you want to take another look?" Li Shan turned around to look at the bustling crowd and vaguely heard a clear but hateful female voice saying something.
But the crowd was a bit noisy, the rain was even louder, and it was a bit far away, so she couldn't really hear clearly.
"Nothing to see."
Tan Zhaozhao said softly: "Compared to what is coming, these are completely unimportant."
Once the police succeed in making an arrest, everyone who needs to know will know.
If the police fail to make the arrest, then what's the point of them listening to so much here, other than putting themselves in more danger?
Tan Zhaozhao is not the type of person who would be interested in other people’s daily lives. She would rather live than gossip.
The two left the community and braved the heavy rain to come to the martial arts gym that was temporarily closed.
As soon as he entered the door, he was caught by Li Shan's parents.
Two girls and a cat sat obediently with their heads down in front of their parents and were "interrogated".
The Li couple looked at the two girls holding water cups on the sofa, their tone a little suspicious, but more solemn.
"Shanshan, did you drag Zhaozhao into trouble with you again? Why did you buy so many things and send them to the martial arts school? And you insisted that we close the martial arts school and reorganize it?"
Although they are blaming them now, in fact, when Li Shan made this request yesterday, they completely trusted their child's decision and temporarily closed the martial arts school. The coaches and students also went back to their homes. Now, in the huge martial arts school, there are only four of them and a cat.
There are also mountains of grain, oil and other supplies in the museum.
Just like when he went to the police station to report a case, Tan Zhaozhao took out his tablet and handed it to the two elders before explaining on behalf of his friend: "Uncle and aunt, please finish reading this first. After you finish reading it, we will explain the situation and our speculation to you in detail. Shanshan and I definitely did not do anything stupid."
They all knew that she and Li Shanshan were the best friends, and that Tan Zhaozhao would never forget to send them blessings and buy them gifts during the holidays. After interacting with them more often, they all knew that Tan Zhaozhao had a gentle personality and was a very sensible and steady child.
Therefore, they barely suppressed the doubts in their hearts, gathered together, clicked on the video and watched it carefully.
