Wang San San is very fast.
Three days later, the items were delivered to her: five high-voltage stun guns. They were about 30 centimeters long, quite compact, and could be used simply by charging. The tested power was surprisingly strong, and Fengran was very satisfied.
"Okay. Wait a moment, I'll get you your medicine."
"Wait a minute. I wanted to ask... could we exchange it for half the grain?"
"Isn't your family from the countryside? Are you out of food?"
"Grandpa had surgery before, and we sold almost all of our grain. We've run out of food recently. We can't grow anything on our land."
if you can……"
Feng Ran glanced at her. Her eyes, hidden beneath a hat and mask, narrowed slightly. In the end, she gave her five boxes of medicine, plus half a bag of rice.
"this!"
"Take it. I'll need your help later. Keep your mouth shut. Don't reveal that the food and medicine came from me. Otherwise, there won't be another chance to cooperate."
"I definitely won't say anything."
"Okay. Let's go. The police are investigating me recently, so don't come over without my permission. If anyone finds out about you, think about what to say in advance."
If someone asks you if you know me, just say you do. Say you made stun guns and crossbows for me. Don't say anything else.
"good."
...
Jixiang said that there were no Qi Xie or other people nearby, so Fengran let Wang San San in.
...
In early April, more and more people were starving.
National organizations and relevant researchers are also working intensively on hydroponic vegetables and fruits.
However, the results were not very good. And in just one month, it was already good if they could sprout and grow into seedlings.
So it's not very useful.
Meanwhile, water levels across the country are getting lower and lower.
Finally, personnel monitoring the water level discovered the problem.
Starting in mid-April, water consumption in urban areas across the country plummeted.
Limited-time supply has begun.
Water is available from 6:00 AM to 9:00 AM and from 9:00 PM to 12:00 AM every day; otherwise, the water supply is cut off.
The supply time varies from city to city.
The city where the wind-blown dyeing is located is supplied with this point.
Feng Ran wasn't worried because she had already stored a lot of water in the space.
However, given the water level, a power outage is probably not far off.
However, it will get hot in just a few months!
No water, no electricity... how can we possibly get through the summer properly...?
Starting that day, Fengran began preparing to store ice.
The first thing to do is to go to the second-hand furniture and appliance market and get a few ice makers. It would be even better if we could buy ice in bulk.
She went to the secondhand furniture and appliance market in the morning, but there were hardly any taxis left on the road. Afraid of being discovered by Qi Xie, she didn't dare drive.
There was no other way but to find a shared bike to ride. All the electric bikes were out of power.
By the time I finally arrived at the secondhand furniture and appliance market, groaning and moaning, I was already sweating profusely.
There were hardly any people in the market.
Only the businesses are still persisting in keeping their stores open.
Feng Ran looked at several shops, but each one was filled with listlessness. The previous owners were nowhere near as enthusiastic as she had been.
"Does the boss have an ice maker for sale?"
An old man struggled to lift his emaciated, sallow face. "Yes. Find it yourself."
...tsk...
"How much does it cost?"
"All 500."
Fengran rummaged through two commercial ice makers. Combined with the three in her own space, that was enough.
"Just these two. The boss will deliver them to your door."
"No delivery. Carry it yourself."
How can she move it herself...?
Just as Feng Ran was speechless and about to give up, Ji Xiang told her in her mind that Qi Xie was hiding diagonally behind the shop.
"Then I'll come back later." With that, Feng Ran left the store.
“Jixiang, is he still following us?”
"Um."
Feng Ran strode forward quickly, just as she reached the corner, and hid inside the shop.
As Qi Xie followed from behind, Feng Ran quickly appeared behind him again.
"Handsome policeman?"
"..."
"What a coincidence."
The wind made the flowers smile brightly.
At least that's how Qi Xie sees it now.
Bathed in sunlight, her smiling face looked radiant and harmless.
Yet this very person caused trouble for a mother and son.
Recently, there has been an increasing number of thefts and robberies outside.
I was originally investigating another case today, but I happened to see Fudong riding a bicycle and making noises at the gate. For some reason, I followed him.
And it was discovered...
"What a coincidence," Qi Xie also said.
"Perfect timing, could you do me a favor? Thanks." Feng Ran looked at Qi Xie with a pitiful expression.
I instinctively replied with "What is it?" and immediately regretted it.
"I want to buy an ice maker. The one at home is broken. But the store won't deliver it. My car was also stolen. Could you help me deliver it?"
"You can pay someone to move it."
"I asked them. Nobody came. Everyone's starving. They don't want money. They just want food. And you know what? I don't even have enough for myself..."
Please help me, okay?
"not good."
"handsome guy……"
"I'm investigating a case, I don't have time," Qi Xie said, and then prepared to leave.
Feng Ran grabbed the sleeve of her white shirt.
"I really can't carry it back... Can you help me? We've known each other for so long?"
"...I really don't have time."
After saying that, he flicked her finger away and walked away leisurely.
What a scoundrel... He has absolutely no gentlemanly manners.
There's nothing I can do...
Feng Ran wandered around the entrance of the secondhand market. She found a small tricycle and paid 1000 yuan to take her there. She was also taken home by the tricycle.
