Since those people were capable of killing the previous landlords, they must have thoroughly searched the place.
Unfortunately, they found nothing and returned empty-handed.
However, I don't know what their situation is. Why didn't they just stay and look for things slowly, but instead left?
Could it be that there's more than one group of people watching this basement?
Thinking of this, he said to Liu Shile seriously, "Lele, I'm afraid this house is not simple. You must remember to be careful."
Liu Shile immediately laughed, "Don't you know my abilities?"
"Relax, relax, no matter how many people come, they can't be a match for me, unless they blow up this whole street."
However, in this day and age, there probably aren't many bold people who would dare to do such a thing.
Well, it's not that no one would have that kind of guts.
However, the value here is not so great that those people have mobilized such a large amount of manpower, material resources, and military force to deal with it.
Seeing her like this, Lin Ziming didn't say anything more, but silently handed her something.
It was a very beautiful ribbon, quite soft in texture, which could be used as a belt or a waistband.
"This is... a weapon?" Liu Shile was somewhat surprised. She gently tugged at the ribbon and found that it didn't budge.
You should know that she has the strength to easily break steel!
Lin Ziming nodded, "Just consider it decoration. At least it can be used in case of emergency."
Actually, he has other pretty awesome weapons here.
However, he didn't want to show off anything too high-end, just like Lele.
Liu Shile also has some high-level weapons in her warehouse, but she has never taken them out to use.
The reason is that those weapons would be too frightening to take out, so it's better not to take them out.
"Alright then, I won't stand on ceremony. By the way, what do you want to eat today?"
Although the food she cooked was inedible, preparing the ingredients was still no problem.
Moreover, they can bring their own ingredients and have someone cook them, since the restaurants in Chinatown are quite authentic anyway.
"Why are you being so polite with me? I just wanted to give you a small gift."
However, it's getting late, so it's time to go out for dinner.
"Let's go. I'll modify this place later; it can become a small base."
Lin Ziming's greatest interest in this basement was that it could be transformed into the base he desired.
Liu Shile waved her hand and put everything away.
To be honest, she didn't really need these things, but she figured she might as well take advantage of something that was free.
Also, some of those antiques are national treasures, so she naturally wanted to take them back with her.
However, the situation in China is currently unclear, and there is an even more uncertain future ahead, so she will not donate for the time being.
The two left the courtyard and stopped to greet Sister Juan'er when they passed the convenience store.
This convenience store is run by Sister Juan'er, but I didn't see her husband. I wonder what's going on with him.
However, Liu Shile and Lin Ziming didn't care. Liu Shile had a good impression of Sister Juan'er, who had given her such a large sum of unexpected money.
Most importantly, this woman had a kind heart, even though she chickened out in the end.
Chinatown is bustling with people, but most of them don't look well, and some even have a sorrowful expression on their faces.
Some people were very enthusiastic about interacting with Liu Shile and her group, and also wanted to ask about the situation in China.
People like them are usually people who have just come from China.
Since they came from China, they must know about the situation there.
Liu Shile wasn't very patient in answering these questions, but Lin Ziming seemed incredibly patient.
Liu Shile glanced at him, wondering what he was up to this time.
However, she didn't care about any of that; as long as he knew what he was doing, that was enough.
At the Chinatown restaurant, Liu Shile and Lin Ziming sat down, and the very kind-looking proprietress warmly invited them to make themselves at home.
Then I brought them the menu to order.
Because she wasn't very familiar with the area, Liu Shile didn't bring the materials directly to them for processing.
After casually ordering a few home-style dishes, Liu Shile quietly began to observe the shop.
The shop isn't big, but it's very clean, and you can tell the couple takes it very seriously.
However, there weren't many customers in the shop, and their business was slow.
When the aroma wafted out, Liu Shile sniffed. This smells good. Why are there no customers?
With nothing else to do, Liu Shile started chatting with the landlady.
However, as they chatted, a hint of fear crept into the landlady's voice.
Following her gaze, Liu Shile saw a group of people heading this way.
These men were burly and had tattoos on their bodies. They had cigarettes in their mouths and were openly carrying steel pipes and other weapons.
"Um, you two, why don't you head out first? Our shop can't serve you today."
The proprietress's face showed a hint of worry, but she still managed a smile as she spoke to Liu Shile and the other woman.
Liu Shile blinked. "Ah, Aunt Luo, why?"
She asked the question naturally and frankly, as if she hadn't seen the menacing-looking person walking towards her.
Aunt Luo's face had begun to turn pale, but before she could speak again, the door of the small shop was flung open.
Then, this group of people walked in, laughing and joking without any restraint.
When they saw Liu Shile, their eyes lit up; when they saw Lin Ziming, some people's expressions changed.
"Oh, boss lady, we have customers today? Hahaha, congratulations!"
One of the cocky young men had his eyes scanning Liu Shile all over.
Aunt Luo's face paled even more, but she still instinctively stood in front of Liu Shile.
Liu Shile raised an eyebrow, then winked at Lin Ziming.
Lin Ziming nodded almost imperceptibly.
Hearing the commotion in the kitchen, the owner and head chef rushed out, forgetting all about cooking, clutching a cleaver in his hand.
Liu Shile's eyelids twitched; she hadn't expected to see such a scene so soon after arriving in Chinatown.
Are they about to fight?
"Huh? Old man, you actually dare to come out with a kitchen knife?"
"Are you tired of living? Today is the last day. If you don't hand over your daughter, your shop is closed down."
Liu Shile clearly saw the landlady's body trembling slightly. Was she trying to snatch a respectable young woman from the house?
However, before the boss could react, the person who spoke was slapped by his older brother.
"Go, bring that girl to me!" That's the order the man gave.
The boss and his wife, who originally thought the men were there for their daughter, were dumbfounded when they heard this. What were these outrageous people trying to do?
"What are you trying to do? Are you trying to kidnap someone in broad daylight? She's a guest here for a meal, she has nothing to do with us. If you want to take her away, you'll have to step over my dead body first!"
Mr. Li's hand holding the knife didn't tremble, and his voice was very loud.
