Jiang Ning ignored them and his eyes fell on the round stainless steel ornament on the ground. It should have fallen out of the corpse and happened to be the pass to Lian Mansion.
Lu Yu and Zhang Chao thought it was useless and didn't take it away at all.
Jiang Ning squatted down and picked it up. It looked like a backpack decoration. It was probably obtained from a factory and then distributed to the members.
Back upstairs, Zheng Weili opened the door immediately after hearing the noise. She was startled to see the two people coming back together. "Why did you come back so late? Did you get any news?"
Seeing that Huo Yishen didn't say anything, Jiang Ning nodded and said, "I just walked out of the community not far away, and happened to see a team collecting protection grain, so I quietly followed them and found that they entered Li'an Mansion."
After hearing her story, Zheng Weili was shocked. "You mean, their hideout is in the community?"
Lian Mansion is very large, with more than 20 residential buildings alone. How many people are there in it?
Did this gang develop from residents of the community, or was it invaded by evil forces from outside?
If it was an occupation, are the original residents still alive?
Not only did they collect protection food, they also went directly into the homes of survivors to rob them under the guise of going out to collect supplies.
This is also the reason why the 18th floor was targeted.
Zhang Chao and Lu Yu's heads were buzzing. They thought it was a gang of at most a few dozen people. Who knew...
There are only 5 people on the 18th floor who are capable of fighting. Even if they are cut into slices, it will not be enough for them to fill their teeth.
So, he subconsciously looked at Jiang Ning and Huo Yishen, "What should we do next?"
What to do? The worst thing to do is to eat it cold.
Jiang Ning pretended to be dumbfounded and looked at Huo Yishen beside him.
Being cared for by everyone, Huo Yishen thought for a moment and said, "Don't be impulsive. I'll go check it out tomorrow."
I didn’t sleep on the 18th floor, and I was even more frightened on the 17th floor.
Mother Zhong was so frightened that she was scared to death. "Mom, when I came back just now, I almost stepped on a corpse on the 16th floor, and the door downstairs was also smashed. What happened?"
I thought something bad had happened to my family, but luckily my mother-in-law was unharmed.
Today was a close call, but Grandma Zhong was still frightened. She sighed and said, "Something bad has happened."
After hearing what her mother-in-law said, Zhong's mother was stunned for a long time. "Is Zeng Nianlun crazy? We agreed to face difficulties together, but he ended up being a coward and stabbed me in the back?"
And the Xu family in 1702, I really misjudged them at the beginning.
"Mom, what do we do now?"
Zhong's mother was very worried. Her husband and son were both at work, leaving her and her mother-in-law alone at home. If the 18th floor really didn't care about their lives, what would happen to her family?
These two bad apples have ruined the whole pot of soup.
"There's no point in being afraid. You've been busy all day. Go take a shower and go to bed early. We'll think about what to do tomorrow."
Grandma Zhong didn't close her eyes. After making sure her daughter-in-law was asleep, she tiptoed to the kitchen to boil a pot of water.
Open the door and pour it into the gap of 1702's door.
The weather was extremely cold and the water quickly froze when poured on it.
Grandma Zhong stood in the aisle and sighed deeply in the darkness.
It doesn’t matter whether she lives or dies, but we can’t leave hidden dangers to the children.
She has lived to this day and it is enough. Many people younger than her have died before her, but the children are still young, especially Zhong Ping, who just graduated and found a job, and has not yet married and had children.
Alas, when will the natural disaster end?
After calming down, Grandma Zhong closed the door and went back to her room, wrapped in a quilt and unable to sleep all night.
…
I was half asleep and was woken up by the banging noises downstairs.
Both people and dogs are used to it, as long as they don't pry open the door on the 18th floor.
Wrap your head in the quilt and continue sleeping.
When Jiang Ning woke up, he heard a noise in the hallway. He opened the door and found Lu Yu listening to the noise downstairs. "What's going on?"
Lu Yu laughed twice, "The Xu family in 1702 refused to open the door yesterday, and today, for some reason, they suddenly moved."
Jiang Ning didn't care. "They are probably afraid that the gang will come back for revenge and worry about getting involved with them."
"It's better to move away, so there won't be another person stabbing you in the back."
Lu Yu told her what he heard, "I just heard Grandma Zhong greet them. It seems that the Xu family is moving to the shelter."
That's right, in response to the unprecedented cold wave in the south, the government has replanned the shelters.
Houses in the south do not have heating, so they can only use the most primitive heating methods.
A large number of survivors gathered in the shelter. It was warm because of the dense crowds of people, but it was filled with various smells. It was difficult to stretch out your hands and feet, let alone lie down to sleep or take a hot shower.
People will collapse if they don’t sleep, but when they fall asleep and wake up, there may be nothing left except themselves.
The landlords had no surplus food, not to mention that there were so many people in the city, so the purpose of the refugees was to provide temporary relief and transition, and it was stipulated that any survivors who came in would only be allowed to stay there for one month.
After the expiration, you can only go to the public heating area, which only provides heating during the day. Once the heating is turned off at night, you can be frozen into icicles.
Therefore, many people would rather go out to get relief food or go up the mountain to chop firewood for heating than go to a shelter. At least they have quilts at home and can sleep by burning firewood.
Lu Yu asked Jiang Ning, "The Zhong family is the only one left on the 17th floor. What should we do now?"
"We talked it out before the Zhong family moved in."
Jiang Ning had no expression. "Everywhere is dangerous now. Let's see how the Zhong family protects themselves. Don't put your hopes on us."
The person on the 18th floor is a human, not a god, and he doesn’t even know how long he can live.
As they were chatting, Huo Yishen opened the door and walked out, "Aning, are you going to check out the place today?"
Huo Yishen was not from Fengcheng and didn't even know where Lian Haoting was. Jiang Ning just wanted to test the waters, so he nodded and agreed.
To scout the place, one must be low-key. Jiang Ning put on old clothes, and Huo Yishen was also low-key, but...
Well, he is too tall, with a good body proportion and a pair of long legs. No matter how low-key he is, he always stands out from the crowd.
Jiang Ning was curious, "How tall are you?"
"189."
This height is outstanding in the north, let alone in the south, where it will really catch the eye in the crowd.
Jiang Ning was a little worried, "How about I go by myself?"
Huo Yishen's mouth twitched slightly, "It's okay, I won't hold you back."
At this point, Jiang Ning didn't know what to say. After all, he was very skilled and would not be trapped even if he was discovered.
So, the two were given to 1803 to raise.
The devil has been cultivated, and the survivors of Jinrong Community have developed sharp eyes. Even though the two of them were low-key and disguised, they were still recognized.
No one dared to approach them.
Truth cannot be hidden; yesterday's gunfight has spread.
Although they were afraid, they were extremely united this time and without exception, they all hoped that they could win, even if the idea was unrealistic.
The people on the 18th floor may be evil, but as long as you don't provoke them, they will not take your heads or accept your protection food.
If they kill those who collect the protection food, they can also pay some points. After all, there are only a few people on the 18th floor. How much can they eat?
Unfortunately, Jiang Ning had no idea what they were thinking.
Even if they knew, they wouldn't care. They are just a group of people who enjoy the shade under a big tree.
If you want to rely on them, you'd better go to bed early. May your wishes come true in your dreams.
