There was no food or fuel, only heavy snow and endless ice.
And as I work, I get hungrier faster!
The bean cake has shrunk quietly!
What the fuck?!
I can’t afford to live, and I can’t die!
Who wants to become a gifted person?
…
Although Ji He had the help of the invisibility cloak during this period, considering that gifted people have various abilities, in order to reduce trouble, she always used a fake face when she went out.
It is the face of my husband who is blessed with great fortune.
This way, even if she was discovered, it would not delay her from obtaining the energy stone.
She just came home that day.
As soon as she came back, the ball that usually came up to her like a puppy disappeared.
Ji He was a little curious, so he walked to the door.
I put my head against the door and heard the shouting and cursing from Yuanqiu and the people outside.
The room is soundproof, but it only protects against others, not Ji He.
If she wanted to listen, she could put her ear close to the person talking outside.
Soon, Ji He knew what was going on.
The man who had demanded two kilograms of food from her as protection money came again.
During this period, she went out early and came back late. Although she did not get involved in her neighbors' affairs, she knew a little about them.
These neighbors are never quiet. They are scheming against each other all day long and have been busy for a while.
Now the people are roughly divided into three groups. The indigenous group lives on the 16th to 18th floors.
The group that had just arrived due to the extreme cold lived on the 6th to 9th floors.
The rest of the residents are a group of passive-neutral late-stage awakeners.
The passively neutral group of people don't want to be neutral and want to get involved, but they are so poor that they can't get any money out of it and are left with only the clothes on their backs.
He has some ability and looks down on ordinary people, but that ability is only enough to put down two icicles. Even with the preparation, the icicles are not as useful as a shovel.
In the base, which is still a relatively orderly society, both groups look down on them, so they can only remain passively neutral.
The two groups with supplies had a large population and were capable. They both wanted to be the boss of the building and caused a lot of trouble.
In the end, no one could do anything to anyone.
Only temporary peace.
Just as he had freed up his hands, the group of people on the 6th floor came to Ji He's house and knocked on the door again.
Official players of the game have food, and if they can squeeze out something from their hands, they are better than those poor awakened ones.
They just came one after another.
The old residents didn't get along with them, so they were naturally happy to watch them teetering on the brink of death.
Sneered in his heart.
Stupid!
Why do you think they don’t bother the family upstairs?
Although this girl lives alone, she is poor but strong.
It looks shiny on the surface, but actually there is nothing in it and they eat bean cakes all day long.
There was still some food left before, but it was all gone before the extreme cold.
Now you want to squeeze money out of her?!
Humph, you really hit a wall!
With that much strength and weapons, anyone who dares to show off will have to be careful of being shot while sleeping in the middle of the night!
The group of people downstairs are not completely stupid. They came several times but didn't force their way in.
It was just a polite knock on the door, with no intention of prying it open.
It's the frequency of knocking.
The man outside the door ignored the insults in front of him and calculated the time in his mind. They only came up to knock for five minutes every day, and could go back when the time was up.
There was still one minute left to complete the task today. Just as he was about to raise his hand to knock again, he suddenly saw the door open. He was a little surprised, "Are you home?"
This is an interesting question.
"Is there something?" Ji He didn't respond. He glanced at the man and asked back.
This person is not the one who knocked on the door last time.
Although they are dressed similarly, they are a little taller than that one.
He was wearing a heavy patched coat and looked tall and strong, like a bear. He had a hat made of thick animal skin on his head, wrapping himself tightly.
This weird outfit made him look like a beggar before, but now it is a symbol of wealth.
Wear it out to be envied.
You know, many people with acquired talents can’t even wear a thick down jacket, let alone a hat.
The only way to resist the severe cold is to have a righteous spirit.
The man glanced carelessly into the room, but unfortunately his eyes were blocked and he couldn't see anything.
He felt a little regretful, so he withdrew his gaze and looked at Ji He.
Wearing a black sportswear and clean new cotton shoes, he showed some strength, but not much.
He knew what was going on, and said to Ji He with a smile, "It's okay, I just wanted to come and see if you were okay. It's so cold, it's not safe for you to live alone, if anything really happens, I can help you."
Ji He didn't bother about the implications of his words about living alone.
"Now that I've seen it, don't bother me if there's nothing else."
After saying that, he slammed the door shut.
The smile on the man's face fell instantly after the door closed.
He knocked on the door several times before, but only the props at the door appeared and no one opened the door. He thought the man had left or was dead.
I didn't expect it was still there.
But it doesn't matter.
He looked around the house in front of him as if it were his own home.
He had inquired about it before. This family has a little girl and is in very good condition. The front door of the house is a prop.
He didn't believe it at first and thought someone was trying to trick him.
Later I observed it several times.
I only believed it because the man was wearing new clothes and he went downstairs to shovel snow alone every time.
Now it seems that legends are just legends. Those people have never seen the world and have exaggerated a little.
This man doesn't look well-off from the way he's dressed. He's just average at best. He can only live better than those poor people because he has no burden.
The props on this door are pretty good.
If he can move in, this prop will be his from now on!
But the base is still safe now.
It's hard to snatch it by force, so he can only try to get it a few more times.
After all, she is a little girl. If they come to harass her a few times and she can't save herself, she will give in.
By then, she will be alone and there will be 8 of them. If they really move in, won’t they have the final say?
Thinking of the wonderful life after going in, the man's mouth curled up.
Neither Ji He nor Yuanqiu took the man seriously.
Once the door is closed, just do what you need to do.
Yuanqiu is planning to be a bodyguard for Dafengshou.
Ji He felt that he was strong and knew how to treat illnesses, so he was not afraid of anyone.
In the next few days, the man or his companion became more and more aggressive. Not only did they come to Ji He's door every day to knock on it, but the time they spent knocking on it also doubled.
Ji He went out to get energy stones as usual every day and did not show up for a while.
Only the ball would always curse them with a loud voice that resounded through the sky.
Amid the scolding, the atmosphere became increasingly weird.
The old residents enjoyed watching the fun, while the newly awakened talents were ready to make some moves.
If this is a soft persimmon, can I squeeze it?
At least he is better than me.
