Seeing the other party provocatively giving them the middle finger, and seeing Zhao Hui and the others in a state of panic and confusion, Lin Ruo realized that there are still differences between people.
"Don't you want to change boats?"
Hearing Lin Ruo's words, Li Wei looked at her in surprise. Did she have a solution?
Zhao Hui tried to close his agape and pointed at the other party's boat, "That one?"
Lin Ruo nodded, then glanced at the boat again. "That should be a diesel generator. I was a bit tired from rowing, so this is just in time."
"Of course I want to! What's there to consider?! There's no need to consider this! Even a second more of consideration is disrespectful to the ship!"
Lin Ruo's lips curled up beneath her mask. The other ship was getting closer and closer, and the people on board were becoming increasingly arrogant, as if they were the prey on a plate or meat on a chopping board.
But when the distance closed to 50 meters, Lin Ruo quickly pulled out his Desert Eagle from his waist and fired without hesitation.
Six shots were fired in quick succession, each with a 0.5-second interval, totaling no more than three seconds. Before the five opponents could react, they were all hit in the forehead and fell to the ground.
Only one boatman remained. Because the glass in front of him shielded him from view, he was terrified and his legs went weak. But his hands instinctively tried to turn the boat around and run away!
Lin Ruo narrowed his eyes slightly, took aim, and fired two more shots, both hitting the spot where the glass had shattered, successfully blowing the opponent's head off.
Li Wei looked at Lin Ruo in shock. The speed and accuracy of her shooting were even better than the sharpshooter in their team before!
Back when he was still in the army, even the sharpshooters in his company couldn't maintain such high accuracy within such a short interval, hitting the center of the eye with every shot!
"Sister! You're my real sister!" Zhao Hui was so happy he almost jumped for joy!
After shouting to Lin Ruo, he jumped into the water with a splash and swam towards the fishing boat, like a child who had just received a new toy.
The journey back was easy. Zhao Hui drove the fishing boat with a rope attached to the back, tied to the lifeboat like a string of candied hawthorns.
Lin Ruo sat cross-legged at the bow of the fishing boat in the heavy rain, propping her head up with one hand and watching the ripples made by the boat in the water.
Everyone sat on the fishing boat, and even though they were getting soaked in the rain, their faces showed an unprecedented sense of ease and joy.
Li Wei walked over, sat down next to Lin Ruo, wiped the rain off his face, and said, "Zhao Hui just whispered to me that he wants to give you an extra 10% of the supplies as part of the ship's rental fee. He said the ship is yours."
Lin Ruo looked up at him, and seeing no dissatisfaction on his face, she turned back and nodded gently.
“It feels like we’re living in the apocalypse, while you’re here for a vacation.” Li Wei chuckled after saying this, and continued, “What seems incredibly difficult to us is nothing but a piece of cake for you, something you handle with absolute ease.”
"What you perceive as ease is the result of a thousand times more effort on my part." Lin Ruo didn't look at Li Wei again, but spoke calmly about the matter. Whether in her past life or this one, she had always put in more effort than others to become who she is today.
"We must work even harder in the future." Lin Ruo looked at the distant water, her tone firm and unwavering. No one understood the horror of the apocalypse better than her; only by constantly striving and improving could one survive in the apocalypse.
These words sent a jolt through Li Wei. Someone as capable as Lin Ruo was still working hard, while what had he been doing all this time? Perhaps he also needed to change in order to better adapt to this cannibalistic world.
With the help of the fishing boat, they made their journey very easy and returned to Longyuan in just half an hour. The residents of Longyuan heard the sound of the fuel engine and leaned out of their windows, where they witnessed a shocking scene.
A fishing boat was towing three other boats behind it, all covered with various kinds of raincoats, bulging and bulky, making it easy to guess what was inside.
Lin Ruo sat at the bow of the boat and arrived at Building 3. Zhao Hui excitedly began to distribute the supplies. The supplies found by the people in Buildings 5 and 6 were to be handed over to Building 3 in small quantities, and the rest were to be taken by themselves.
The supplies in the third building were plentiful. Lin Ruo picked out three 10-kilogram bags of rice, two 10-kilogram bags of flour, five 5-liter bottles of purified water, two large boxes of instant noodles, two bottles of cooking oil, two large bags of daily necessities, and a large bag of various snacks. She didn't ask for anything else.
These supplies are enough for her for two months. When the extreme cold season arrives, she will leave this place and live alone. At that time, she will be able to use the things in her space without restraint and will no longer have to hide them.
Kong Wenhao and Miao Wei helped Lin Ruo move all these things to the 25th floor and placed them at Lin Ruo's door before turning around and going downstairs.
Qian Li, who lives across the hall, opened her door and saw Lin Ruo returning. Her eyes lit up with a smile. "You're back. Did it go smoothly this time?"
As Lin Ruo placed her hand on the door, the ice inside quickly melting away, she turned to reply to Qian Li, "Yes, it went smoothly. Li Wei is still downstairs distributing supplies. You can wait a little longer."
After saying that, she took out her key and opened the door.
Qian Li smiled even more happily, "Okay, you should rest first."
