Who is it?
Qi Xie's voice rang out through the crack in the door.
"police."
Screw you, police.
"They're here."
Qi Xie is indeed even more handsome during the day.
Still wearing a white shirt and casual pants.
"Handsome policeman, what are you doing here again?"
"The two men from last night have been caught. They say you fired the shot last night."
"...How...how could that be! They're definitely trying to evade responsibility. That's why they said it was run by me. If you don't believe me, come in and search!"
That's exactly what I was thinking.
As soon as Qi Xie entered the living room, he saw a plate of fresh, dripping fruit.
Oh no! I forgot to collect it...
"The fruit is quite fresh."
"Hehe." Feng Ran chuckled dryly without making a sound.
To make matters worse, she hadn't even cleaned up the boxes from the crayfish, boiled fish, and other dishes she had just eaten!
Qi Xie rummaged through the kitchen trash can.
"Why don't you tell me first, which takeout restaurants are still open?"
"Huh? Well... why don't you find a gun first? After all, eating crayfish isn't illegal, right?"
She needs to think of a reason to come up with.
"..." Qi Xie gave her a meaningful look.
Now, Feng Ran was unhappy.
What's going on?! Are you really going after her? You won't be happy until you put her in jail, huh?
Qi Xie searched the house several times but couldn't find the gun. The house was ransacked. Feng Ran was even angrier now.
"No, right? I told you I couldn't possibly have a gun. Those two were definitely lying to you."
"Recently, many shops outside have been looted. Tell me where the fruit delivery came from."
"Anyway, I didn't steal it."
"Then I'll have to ask you to come to the police station for a visit."
"...Are you alright? Why are you pulling this trick again? If you ask me, you'd be better off catching thieves outside. Why are you watching me every day?"
The takeout was ordered a long time ago. It was frozen, and I finally managed to thaw it today. I heated it up and ate some to calm my nerves. You must have been terrified by the gunshots last night, almost to death!
If you don’t believe me, just look!
As she spoke, Feng Ran showed Qi Xie the order slip on the outer packaging.
The time is indeed from the past.
Qi Xie put down the order slip and left without saying a word.
Feng Ran followed behind and slammed the large iron gate shut.
That's really annoying.
While scrolling through short videos today, I noticed a surge in suggestive content online. It started with showing thighs, then half-breasts, and now it's women wearing only underwear and men streaming in their underwear. They even solicit donations while streaming, and nobody seems to care.
Feng Ran watched it with great interest for a while.
The more I watch, the more addicted I become.
I think she's 19 now.
I've never been in a relationship...
It was a real failure.
I finished the fruit. I didn't eat dinner. I went online and did some work, checking my inventory. I felt a bit more confident.
Then I went out of the room to shower and sleep.
I didn't sleep well last night.
...
Early May.
The weather started to get hot.
The ground in the small courtyard was cracked.
This meant that she was only given one hour of water per day. She had to finish washing clothes, eating, and showering within that hour, and also store water for the day's use.
Life is pretty comfortable.
To avoid trouble, she hasn't gone out lately.
I was just about to rest after dinner when Feng Nangui, who I've been in contact with for a long time, called me on video.
"Hello."
"Um."
What a weirdo. He doesn't say anything during video calls, he just stares at his files. He only manages a soft "uh-huh" after the call has been connected for two minutes.
"If there's nothing else, I'll hang up. I want to sleep."
"How have you been lately?"
"fine."
"Um."
Sure enough, they really had nothing to say.
"Brother, how have you been lately?"
"It's alright... Do you want to come over here?"
"No, I'm perfectly fine living alone."
How many times had he rejected his offer? Feng Nangui pinched the bridge of his nose and finally turned his gaze to Feng Ran.
"Is there any food left?"
"Um."
"I don't know what you're insisting on. If you follow me, you'll have no worries about food or clothing. There are many people starving to death outside right now. Don't you realize how serious the situation is?"
"I know. But we are, after all, independent individuals. I have my own life."
"...Good luck." The man hung up the video call again.
Feng Ran shrugged indifferently.
She now had something to do.
The fruit in the space is ripe. She needs to pick some of it.
We won't pick the ones from the higher places; we'll leave them for good fortune.
In other places, Feng Ran decided to remove the light.
Half and half.
After all, the growth process of fruit is relatively long compared to that of vegetables.
Most of the fruit trees in the space have borne fruit. It's just that some saplings are a bit smaller, and the fruit they produce is small and few.
I don't want this kind of wind stain anymore.
The grapevines, on the contrary, grew very vigorously. The grapes they produced were also of very high quality.
She also likes grapes, so she wanted all of them this time.
Trees like durian and jackfruit trees didn't do it. These are the only two trees that didn't flower. They've grown quite tall now. I wonder if they'll successfully flower and bear fruit next time.
Take out the plastic basket. We'll start with the grapes.
Bunches of purple grapes and juicy green grapes. I tried a few, and they were incredibly sweet. Delicious!
Pick, pick, pick!
Actually, she planted the grape seedlings a bit too densely. But luckily, several vines climbed onto one trellis.
It's also convenient to pick them.
