Qiao He went out this time to gather supplies in the vicinity, and the timing was perfect. If they waited any longer and the situation gradually stabilized, a large-scale looting would definitely occur.
Qiao He had experienced something similar in her previous life. At that time, everyone was really like madmen, scrambling for things and fighting over them. Even the rescue team and the police couldn't stop them.
As a result, many people died at the time, either beaten to death or trampled to death.
Chaos is coming.
It's the calm before the storm.
Qiao He walked a short distance ahead. She knew there were several large supermarkets and shopping malls nearby, and planned to go over and see what they had, and then take advantage of any deals.
The safe routes were all told to her by the "playing dumb" system; otherwise, Qiao He wouldn't dare to wander around aimlessly.
If it gets flooded, then it's not worth the loss.
After walking for a while, Qiao He noticed that someone was following her.
She continued walking forward without changing her expression. When she reached the corner, Qiao He leaped up and hugged the lamppost like Spider-Man, waiting for the person who was following her to appear.
It was very quiet around her, and Qiao He held her breath.
Silently counting down in my mind.
3……
2……
1!
Coming here!
Qiao He thrust a dagger at the approaching person!
But the next second, the man grabbed Qiao He's arm. His eyes were bright, as if they were shining with dazzling light in the darkness.
Is it a light fog?!
"You little burden, how come it's you..." Before Qiao He could finish speaking, she saw Bo Shiwu raise his index finger and shush her.
Neither of them spoke, and faint footsteps could be heard from not far away.
But Qiao He and Bo Shiwu were both superhumans, so they naturally knew that a group of people had followed them.
Judging from the voices, there were probably six or seven people, all adult men.
Bo Shiwu simply jumped up as well, and stayed above with Qiao He.
Quietly wait for the other party to arrive.
There are no streetlights here, only the pale moon in the dark night, the light is very dim, and ordinary people can hardly see the road ahead.
The group carefully turned the corner, only to find that there was no one in front of them.
A man said in confusion, "Holy crap, where did they go? I could just see their shadows a moment ago..."
"I don't know, could they have gone that way?"
"I'm not sure, let's look elsewhere."
"This is the only way..."
The group searched the vicinity but couldn't find Qiao He and Bo Shiwu; it was as if the two had vanished into thin air.
They could only go back with dissatisfaction.
After the group left, they came downstairs. Qiao He stared at Bo Shiwu and said, "You weren't asleep? You were following me..."
"I almost hurt you," Qiao He said awkwardly. Actually, she didn't really want Bo Shiwu to come along. After all, with Bo Shiwu around, she couldn't openly receive some large supplies; she could only do it secretly, like a thief.
Bo Shiwu said in a low voice, "What are you doing out in the middle of the night? It's dangerous outside."
“Those people were watching us just now, let’s go back first, Qiao He.”
Qiao He shook her head: "There are supplies nearby, I need to go check them out."
Bo Shiwu remained silent, seemingly certain that Qiao He was determined to go. He sighed helplessly, "Alright, I'll go with you."
"Don't reject me," Bo Shiwu added.
Qiao He hesitated for a moment, then could only nod and say, "Mm..."
Then Qiao He said, "Follow me, I know the safe way."
After saying that, Bo Shiwu followed Qiao He and walked forward.
The road is not easy to walk on. Sometimes you need to climb to the rooftop and use ropes or even kayaks.
However, the distance was not far, and the two arrived quickly.
When the fog thins, go find easily portable food and emergency supplies.
Qiao He went to find the missing supplies, as well as some very useful supplies!
Qiao He made an excuse and the two separated. Then Qiao He started to stock up like crazy. Since it was a free purchase, why not take advantage of it!
Qiao He stopped hoarding the Blood Jade because she couldn't store any more in her space. Then, she carried two large bags of supplies and pretended that she had found them.
The two of them took the same route back.
Qiao He planned to stay here until dawn, and then go home with Bo Shiwu and Lin Qiao, taking the kitten with them.
Yes, she wants to go back to the villa to take a look.
Although many places are still flooded, Qiao He knows that the villa is not in such a low-lying area, and at most, only the first floor is still flooded.
Once she gets back, she can deal with the floodwater, settle Lin Qiao and the other kittens, and then search for Qiao Si based on the information provided by Qiao Fei and Qiao Hua.
For some reason, Qiao He always felt that Qiao Si had probably moved to another place.
As the two little guys mentioned before, they were locked in an underground laboratory, which was heavily guarded. Ordinary animals and humans could not get out at all, and there were all kinds of surveillance and experimenters!
Getting out is harder than climbing to heaven.
She hadn't slept all night, and when she woke up in the morning, the kittens were all around her.
Qiao He felt a surge of tenderness in her heart, and she gently stroked the children's heads: "Babies, let's go home."
The kittens slowly woke up, and they were all very excited when they heard they were going home.
Then, Qiao He called out to Lin Qiao, saying that she was leaving.
Bo Shiwu was carrying three large backpacks, which attracted a lot of attention.
Clearly, those men from last night have their eyes on them again.
Especially the supplies he had.
It has to be said, their gazes were incredibly blatant.
Their posture clearly indicated they wanted to find an opportunity to steal their supplies.
Thin fog, of course, would not give them that chance.
As they were leaving, the rescue team stopped them and asked, "There are many dangerous places outside that you can't walk on. Where are you planning to go? You might as well stay here a little longer and wait until the floodwaters recede and the roads are cleared before you go."
Qiao He knew the rescue team meant well, so she said softly, "Thank you, but it's okay. My home is nearby, we'll get back slowly."
"In that case... please be very careful," the rescue team member said.
Qiao He nodded and gave each of the young men some food.
It wasn't anything valuable, just some fast food and canned meat.
Qiao He observed that everyone here, whether they were rescuers or ordinary people who had been rescued, ate the same thing.
Dry bread and instant noodles, mineral water (some of which was filtered water, and the mineral water bottles were reused) were then distributed to the people.
The conditions were indeed very bad.
Qiao He could only express his gratitude to the rescuers in this way, as they might still be trapped on the mountain if it weren't for their help.
The rescuers initially refused, saying earnestly and honestly, "We can't accept this. These are your things; we can't take even a needle or thread from ordinary people..."
