Lin Ruo looked at him; this man was quite sensible. Since that was the case, then there was nothing more for her to do. "Oh, then I'll be going."
"Um."
Both men turned and went home at the same time. People in the hallway exchanged bewildered glances. Weren't their tones a little too calm? Talking about a corpse as if they were discussing "what we ate today"—it was utterly terrifying.
Upon returning home, Lin Ruo's first action was to put Afu and Ashou into her spatial dimension and use her water-based supernatural abilities to bathe them.
Their fur is already dense, and bloodstains are difficult to clean, so you have to wash them quickly, otherwise they will be harder to wash once they dry.
"I'll make you tight-fitting raincoats in the future," Lin Ruo muttered while manipulating her water-based powers, "so that you won't get splattered with blood when you kill someone, it's hard to wash off."
Afu didn't answer, but obediently squatted to the side, waiting to take a bath. Ashou couldn't sit still, walking back and forth around the water ball that was gradually getting bigger, and occasionally even taking a bite.
They were enveloped in a large water balloon, leaving only their heads exposed. The water gently rubbed their fur, washing away the bloodstains on their bodies. The water then began to wash away the bloodstains on their heads. In less than ten minutes, Afu and Ashou were clean.
Then Lin Ruo used her water-based powers to "dry" them out. When they came out of the space, they were two clean and smelly dogs. Lin Ruo gave the two pups a big kiss on the forehead.
"Knock knock knock~"
Lin Ruo took out a bread from her spatial storage and went to open the door.
The woman stood there somewhat awkwardly, "Hello... I've finished cleaning the hallway."
Lin Ruo peeked out and saw that the stairwell had been cleaned thoroughly, leaving no corner untouched, and the strong smell of blood had dissipated.
She nodded in satisfaction and handed the bread to the woman.
The woman accepted it with a happy expression, then glanced worriedly at the people in the stairwell.
Lin Ruo noticed her nervousness, glanced around at the group of people, and then said to the woman, "You can sit at my door and eat, then leave."
The woman was overjoyed, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Lin Ruo. She had originally thought Lin Ruo was a cold-blooded person, but she never expected her to help her.
"Thank you! Thank you so much!"
Lin Ruo shook her head. "This is the fruit of your labor, you deserve it." After saying that, she closed the door.
The woman, her eyes red-rimmed, sat at Lin Ruo's door, leaning against it as she began to eat bread. The men could only swallow their saliva and glare at her, some even attempting to morally blackmail her.
"Girl, look, my grandson hasn't eaten for days. Can you share some with me?"
"Yes, beautiful lady, we haven't made things difficult for you here, have we? Could you share some with everyone?"
"Sister, I'm so hungry, can you give me some?"
The woman pretended not to hear. She had gotten herself into this state because of her overly kind intentions, and she wouldn't make the same mistake again.
These people only dared to stand at a distance and persuade, but no one dared to actually go forward and snatch it. They all knew what Lin Ruo meant by what she just said: whoever snatched it would die.
"Splash splash splash"
In the apocalypse, torrential rain poured down, turning the entire world into a vast ocean, and the drainage systems of various cities had already collapsed.
The water level rose daily, forming a large-scale flood. Some low-rise buildings had already been submerged, and some flimsy houses even began to collapse.
Large numbers of residents were forced to evacuate, but the floodwaters were so strong that many people lost their lives in the raging floodwaters during the evacuation.
Because of its elevated location and sturdy construction, many people have moved to Longyuan Community.
Therefore, Lin Ruo thought that after this incident, no one would knock on her door again, and she could have some peace and quiet for a while.
In fact, just a week later, there was another knock on the door on the 25th floor. This time, however, it wasn't her door that was being knocked on, but the door across the hall, 2502.
Ah Shou and Ah Fu stood at the door, fully alert. Ever since the last conflict, they had been very vigilant these past few days, and at night, both dogs would lie down at the door.
They were probably afraid someone would suddenly break in.
"Knock knock knock~" The knocking continued, and Lin Ruo listened carefully and realized that it wasn't just one person knocking.
"Woof woof!" Ah Shou barked wildly at the door, and Ah Fu also arched his back, ready to fight.
They could hear dogs barking and banging inside, as if they were afraid of summoning the evil spirit from 2501. They wished 2502 would open the door and let them in right now!
When they couldn't get the door open no matter how much they knocked, they started crying and shouting at the door, saying all sorts of pitiful things.
"Miss Qian! My grandson can't hold on any longer! I beg you, please give us some food! I will be eternally grateful for your kindness!"
"Please, I haven't eaten for almost a week. Please, give me something to eat!"
"Brother Li, it's me, Lao Zhou! My child can't take it anymore, Brother Li, please help me!"
"Knock knock knock~" Another loud knocking came from outside.
"Miss Qian, please open the door! You're a mother too, can you just watch a child die?"
"Please! How can you bear to watch someone die without helping?!"
...
Prayers kept coming from outside. Lin Ruo sat up in bed, her brows furrowed. These people were so noisy!
"Ah Shou, Ah Fu, stop calling." Lin Ruo called out towards the door.
Ah Shou and Ah Fu immediately stopped barking. They had only been barking to scare the other party away. Since their owner didn't want them to bark, they stopped. They lay down on the blanket by the door again, closed their eyes, and pretended to sleep.
Hearing the clear knocking sound outside the door, Lin Ruo found an earphone in the room and put it on, finally able to block out those annoying sounds.
