The door was half open, and a middle-aged woman was crouching down and trying to squeeze inside.
Lin Ruo sneered; this was a case of trying to force her way in after failing to persuade her.
She quickly raised her right leg and kicked the woman in the chest. The woman's body flew backward and slammed into the opposite wall, immediately losing consciousness.
The man on the second floor, who had been eager to try, instantly withdrew his foot. Lin Ruo's sneer grew even colder. "Trying to force your way in?"
Both the man and Zhao Hui looked at the unconscious woman in shock. The woman was slightly overweight, weighing at least 130 pounds, yet she was sent flying several meters away by such a light kick, crashing into the wall!
Sensing Lin Ruo's hostile gaze, the man hurriedly retreated behind Zhao Hui. Perhaps feeling safe with Zhao Hui, he stuck his head out and shouted fiercely at Lin Ruo, "Hitting people is against the law! I'll definitely sue you after we're rescued!"
Lin Ruo sneered, "I'm waiting for you to sue me."
"You...you let us move in now...I can let bygones be bygones..." the man said tremblingly, facing Lin Ruoling's cold gaze.
Lin Ruo ignored the man and looked at Zhao Hui instead, "Do you think I'm easy to bully, a young girl like me?"
"No, no," Zhao Hui knew he had run into a tough customer today, and quickly shook his head. "We were just asking casually. If you don't want to, that's fine too."
He originally thought the other party was a shy, timid girl who would be easy to manipulate, but he didn't expect her to be so strong. He would never believe that the girl hadn't practiced martial arts.
Lin Ruo glanced at him again, her eyes icy and filled with murderous intent, "If you bother me again, I'll kill you all."
"Yes! Yes!" Zhao Hui felt the hairs on the back of his head stand on end under Lin Ruo's gaze, and he quickly agreed.
Lin Ruo glanced at the other man, who immediately hid behind Zhao Hui and nodded hastily.
She then closed the apartment door and stood against it for a while, hearing voices outside through the door.
"I'm the boss of Zhiwei Construction. Once the floodwaters recede, I'm definitely going to send this girl in jail for a few years!"
"President Song, please calm down. The young lady is just being immature."
"Help me get my wife down."
"good."
"That won't do! My wife's injury can't be suffered for nothing!"
She only felt relieved when she heard the voices of two men outside gradually fading into the distance, and then they worked together to carry the woman away from the 25th floor.
"Afu and Shou, come out."
As Lin Ruo walked towards the bathroom, she called out A Fu and A Shou, who were staying in the room.
Afu led Ashou out of the house, then walked to the apartment door and lay down. Ashou lay nearby, closed its eyes, as if it wanted to make this place its home.
Lin Ruo chuckled. Judging by the dogs' ages, these two were still kids, yet they were already planning to protect her.
She ignored them and went straight to the bathroom. The feeling of her clothes sticking to her body after training was really uncomfortable. Once in the bathroom, she took off her clothes and threw them into the washing machine in her space to wash them before gathering her supernatural power to fill the bathwater.
Li Wei from 2502 was also shocked. He had just heard 2501 knocking and was about to open the door when he saw what had just happened through the peephole. He was surprised that the girl from 2501 was so capable. He couldn't help but wonder if he could have blocked that kick.
The answer is naturally no; with that kind of force, even if he tried to take it head-on, he would probably break a bone.
It would be better for them to cooperate. After all, one fist can't fight four hands. If the residents downstairs all come to their floor to cause trouble, none of them can withstand it.
Lin Ruo had just finished showering when there was another knock on the door. She was welcoming her second guest of the day, Li Wei.
Lin Ruo opened the door and looked at Li Wei in surprise, "What's wrong?"
Li Wei carefully chose his words, "I think we can cooperate."
"Cooperation?" Lin Ruo raised an eyebrow. "What kind of cooperation?"
“I saw everything that happened in the hallway just now,” Li Wei sighed. “Don’t laugh at me, but I’m a veteran and I know a bit about the authorities. There’s still no news of rescue efforts from the authorities. Something’s not right. If things are really as bad as I think, this will happen again today.”
"So?" Lin Ruo understood his thoughts somewhat.
“Although you have martial arts skills, you are still only one person, and so am I. We will never know how many enemies there will be, but if we cooperate, it will be different.” Li Wei said sincerely.
Lin Ruo nodded. "I understand what you mean, but I refuse."
"Why?" Li Wei didn't understand why she would refuse such a win-win situation.
Lin Ruo's eyes flickered, and she smiled gently, "Because I don't trust you either."
Li Wei was stunned, then calmly replied, "Yes, in this kind of environment, it's suicidal to easily trust others. In that case, let's talk again when you feel I can trust you."
"good."
Lin Ruo closed the door and waited for Li Wei to return home. She placed her hand on the door, and with a thought, the entire door was covered in transparent ice. Although there were many security locks behind the door, adding her special ability made her feel more at ease.
In the apocalypse, there is no one you can trust. Lin Ruo learned this lesson the hard way in her previous life because she trusted others too easily. She learned it too many times and finally learned it.
Ten days of calm followed, but the torrential rain outside the window continued, and the water level continued to rise. The second floor was completely submerged, and the third floor was flooded. For safety reasons, the residents on the third floor had already moved out.
Of the several supermarkets across from Longyuan Residential Area, only one remains. This supermarket is located on the tenth floor of the office building opposite. It was opened specifically to facilitate those who work in the office building, which is why it is located on a high floor. Now, under the current circumstances, it has become everyone's hope.
