At Zhang Zilong's roar, all the soldiers behind him pointed their guns at Ye Yunyi. They were just waiting for the order to riddle her with bullets.
Liu Yanran snapped out of her daze under such pressure, and seemed to realize what was happening.
"Commander, she's stalling for time. Don't waste your breath on her, make her open the door," Liu Yanran said urgently, shaking Zhang Zilong's hand as she spoke.
"Oh no, Sister Yiyi, they've figured us out," Xiaozhi whispered to Ye Yunyi.
Ye Yunyi was also a little anxious, but she didn't show it on her face. She watched the last car carrying the evacuees drive away from inside the wall and breathed a slight sigh of relief. Just 10 more minutes would have been enough.
"Open the door, Ye Yunyi! If you don't open the door, we'll break in!" shouted a round-faced lackey next to Zhang Zilong.
"Okay, Commander. I didn't say anything wrong. It's just that Liu Yanran started framing me as soon as she arrived." Ye Yun's tone softened.
"Wait here, I'll go down and open it right away." Although Ye Yunyi said this, she didn't move at all.
She was still muttering to herself, "Liu Yanran, you're making wild guesses about us escaping without any evidence. If I really escaped, where would you find me?"
“Commander Zhang, you are the fairest and most impartial person. If it’s not as Liu Yanran said when I open the door, I’ll teach her a lesson.”
"Isn't this just a gossipy woman trying to sow discord?"
"Hurry up and open the door. If Liu Yanran is wrong, I will definitely teach her a lesson. If she is right, then I will also teach you a lesson," Zhang Zilong said.
"Okay, okay, I'll go down and open the door right away, just a moment, I'll be right there." Ye Yunyi walked down from the watchtower. Once they were out of sight, she quickened her pace. Xiao Zhi went to change the door's password and took the keys, hoping to hold out for as long as possible.
Xiao Zhi responded and left. After finishing everything, the two of them got into Zhao Yong's car and sped towards the back door, no longer caring about what happened inside.
As we passed the warehouse in the villa area, a group of people were making a racket at the entrance, completely unaware of what was happening outside.
Zhao Yong was also a very good driver. He arrived at the back gate in just a few minutes. The cars that had driven ahead of him were also driving very fast. The small road had been carved out by those cars, leaving a trail full of tires.
"Everyone speed up, destination: West City Prison," Ye Yunyi announced over the walkie-talkie.
"Yes," everyone replied.
When most of the cars behind left, they already knew that the ambulance had arrived. They were worried that Ye Yunyi wouldn't be able to escape and didn't know where she was going. Hearing Ye Yunyi's voice at this moment, everyone was cheered up.
I waited outside the gate for 5 minutes, but the gate didn't open. I knocked, but no one answered. It was quiet inside.
Even the dumbest person would realize they've been fooled.
"Damn Ye Yunyi, once I catch her, I'll skin her alive!" Zhang Zilong shouted angrily. He had never suffered such a humiliation before, and he was extremely annoyed.
But at this moment, Liu Yanran's IQ had dropped to zero. She felt that Ye Yunyi had been criticized too harshly, and that she had done something right.
He said urgently, "Commander, look, I was right, she must have run away, break down the door quickly."
*Slap!* Zhang Zilong slapped him across the face with his backhand. "Noisy."
"Brothers, break down the door!" Zhang Zilong waved his hand.
Several soldiers stepped forward and threw out the soft ladder, intending to climb it. However, when they touched the ladder, an electric current flowed through their bodies, and they fell to the ground, unable to move.
"There's electricity!" someone shouted.
Zhang Zilong slapped Liu Yanran across the face again, "You didn't warn me when there was electricity?"
Liu Yanran covered her swollen face, took out her phone and said, "I'll call someone to open the door."
However, after sending a message to the WeChat account labeled "Simp Number One" that day, all I saw was the message spinning around and then turning into a red exclamation mark.
"The signal is bad, I'll make a voice call." Liu Yanran dialed a WeChat voice call, but it wouldn't go through either.
"They cut off the internet," Liu Yanran said helplessly, covering her face in fear.
Zhang Zilong was even more furious, so he hired someone to break down the door using the most primitive methods.
Several burly soldiers carried out a thick log, and together they rammed it towards the gate. With a loud crash, the log struck the gate, which only wobbled slightly. Zhang Zilong frowned. "Keep going!" The soldiers gritted their teeth and rammed the gate again and again. Each impact produced a dull thud, but the gate remained as sturdy as ever.
The sound of the impact was particularly loud and clear in the night. The crowd, which had been making a ruckus over the distribution of supplies, fell silent instantly.
“Someone is attacking us, Yiyi wasn’t lying,” someone said in the pitch-black environment.
"What should we do? What should we do? Aren't they supposed to pick us up tomorrow? Aren't ambulances supposed to protect ordinary people?"
"Maybe no one opened the door, and they misunderstood that we were resisting. If we go open the door, everything will be fine."
"Brother Zhang, why don't you take the guards and go take a look?" someone suggested.
The man called Brother Zhang is Zhang Wei, one of the guards who stayed behind. He originally wanted to become the person in charge here because of his status as a member of the guard team, but after Ye Yunyi left, none of them had a higher official rank than the others, so they haven't been able to settle the dispute yet, and they haven't even seen what Ye Yunyi left for them.
"Fine, then from now on you'll all have to respect me." Zhang Wei took advantage of the situation.
"Pah, it's not that dangerous. If you won't go, I will," Wanda said, challenging him.
As he spoke, Wanda led his supporters toward the door, only to realize that there was no one else in the villa area besides them.
They all followed Ye Yunyi. After discovering this fact, they doubted even more whether they had made the wrong choice.
As they went to check, Zhang Zilong roared, "Shoot the lock!" Gunfire erupted, bullets striking the lock and sending sparks flying. Finally, after sustained fire, the lock broke, and the door slowly opened.
They happened to see Wanda's group coming out to investigate.
"Damn it, they won't open the door! Tie them up!" Zhang Zilong was furious, his true nature revealed, all pretense of authority and righteousness gone.
After Zhang Zilong and his gang entered, they quickly took over Jiangyue Community.
Unfortunately, to his great disappointment, apart from the 400-plus people who remained, there were no supplies.
The warehouse, which was originally being fought over, now contains a few bags of rice, a few bags of flour, and some daily necessities, enough for these 400 people to live on for 2-3 days.
There wasn't a single weapon in sight; the place was completely empty.
The crops were alright, they couldn't be taken away, but they still had to wait until they were ripe. They looked at the livestock area with unwavering determination, but apart from the remaining hair and manure, they couldn't find a single living animal.
Zhang Zilong felt deeply defeated once again. How could this cunning woman be so cautious?!
