Chapter 70: Catching the Thief and Taking the Dirty (23)
Lan Jin said, "Here, I've seen the food you bought. It's all prepared for long-term combat. Although it can fill you up, it's always lacking in vitamins. It's okay for us to eat in the cafeteria for a while, but if, as your parents said, there's more to come, how can our bodies handle it for a long time? These lemons, grapefruits, and oranges can all be stored for a long time, especially the lemons. Put them in the refrigerator for now, and then squeeze a few drops into water and drink it. It won't harm your body. Besides, I bought this with contribution points, so take it and don't refuse."
Huang Jinghe had no right to say anything to Lan Jin, so he accepted the fruit and then called his parents.
As for Huang's father and mother, "It's okay if you accept it. If I'm not mistaken, Sister Lan should be thanking you for taking her shopping and withdrawing money. If that's the case, just accept it. After all, you two have a give-and-take relationship."
After saying that, Father Huang said, "By the way, did you block the attic window when I asked you to?"
Huang Jinghe said, "I got some cement and will seal it myself later. I plan to seal it inside and out. The glass is newly installed anti-bow single and double-layer glass. I don't plan to remove it, so I'll just seal it in."
"Okay, it's fine if you don't demolish it, but make sure to seal it with cement. Don't give anyone an opportunity to take advantage. You've been very careful when buying supplies, but what if something happens?" Huang's father said, "Regarding the disappearance of supplies from your supermarket, did you hear anything when you were out running around?"
Huang Jinghe said, "I heard that the supermarket's supplies were taken away by a group of people during the poisonous fog, but we still can't find out who took them away. And these people act very strangely. Who took away the supplies and kept most of them, leaving only a small part. It's really hard to guess."
Huang's father said, "Yes, so you should be careful at home. Don't blame your mother and I for being petty, but there are some things you should be careful about. Your rooftop and attic are too close together, so it's safer to seal them off. Plus, we have so many supplies at home, so it's better to be careful."
Previously, Huang Jinghe was the only one living on the 33rd floor, and they were both very worried. Not to mention that the 33rd floor is now full. If something really happens, the situation will be even more critical than before. How can they not worry more about their son?
Huang's mother sighed, "It would be nice if I could live on the same floor with Sister Lan."
Huang's father disagreed. "Living on one floor isn't necessarily a good thing, but it's not necessarily a bad thing either. Okay, this is good enough."
"Jinghe, you can contact us at any time. As long as we can reply, we will definitely reply you immediately." After saying that, Huang's father and mother hung up the phone. In order to reassure his parents, he got busy sealing the windows after hanging up the phone. After the windows were sealed, he immediately took a few photos and sent them to his parents to let them know that he had finished the job, so that they could worry less about him while they were far away.
And speaking of the supplies in the supermarket.
During the poisonous fog period, the news about the supermarket supplies could not be spread for a while, so most people did not know about it. But now everyone can go out, and with the speed of spread, Lan Jin vaguely heard some rumors on the day she went to withdraw money, not to mention the day she went to the supply and marketing cooperative to shop.
In short, the rumor became more and more intense, and even multiple versions were circulated.
But no matter how many versions there are, none of them can be believed. As the person involved, Lan Jin is even more disdainful of these versions of rumors.
But Lan Jin really had nothing to fear about this matter, and she was not worried that anyone would find out about her.
First of all, there was poisonous fog all along the way. Even if the camera had night vision function, her face could not be seen clearly because she was wearing protective clothing and a gas mask, so how could these people be sure that the person was her?
Secondly, now is the smart age, and mobile phones and other things can track addresses. She did bring a mobile phone with her when she went out, but she was groping her way all the way there, and the phone was in the space the whole time, so you couldn't track it.
As for the time when she stole the oil, well, she didn't use her own phone at all. Large warehouse supermarkets have everything you need, and the phone she used that day was a new phone she got at the '0' yuan shopping event the day before. She didn't even put a SIM card in it. Even if the location was fixed, who would know it was her?
Another thing is that the time period when she used this phone was exactly near the gas station. After she reached the familiar location, she immediately put the phone into the space.
The phone appeared out of nowhere and disappeared out of nowhere, so she asked where she could find the person.
Another thing is, don’t doubt whether the phone can be used without a SIM card.
She just used the map function, which was built into her phone, and the offline map really didn't require logging into an account or anything. In short, she felt that nothing could locate her.
As for the access control system, it wasn't hers. Didn't she encounter an 'obstacle' when she went downstairs? She just stole the person's access card. Even if they found the card's itinerary, it would be the entire community and the entire building that would be suspicious. Why would they only suspect her?
Another thing is to catch a thief and take away the dirty stuff. If you suspect that she has taken the supplies, you must find the supplies and confront her.
So Lan Jin really had nothing to be afraid of. As long as no one came to her, she could pretend that this matter had nothing to do with her.
After that, the matter naturally developed as it should. In any case, Lan Jin completely ignored it.
…
After operating for seven consecutive days, the supply and marketing cooperative finally suspended its business. No matter whether the RMB on hand had been used up or not, it was closed anyway.
As for the time of reopening, there really was one, but they really didn't accept RMB. However, Lan Jin couldn't remember the specific time because they accepted gold when they reopened, and in her previous life, Lan Jin had exchanged the gold for contribution points at the very beginning. Without gold to exchange for supplies, she naturally didn't pay much attention to these things, but she remembered that the interval between them was not long.
A few days later, a recruitment information was quietly sent out in the group, and quickly caught everyone's attention.
This recruitment information is very clear. The recruited personnel will do physical work. Please consider it carefully before signing up.
The salary, which included food and accommodation, three packs of instant noodles and two bottles of mineral water a day, was so tempting that no one could resist it. Even an 80-year-old woman rushed to sign up.
The recruiter was so blind that he set the age limit for applicants to between 18 and 45 years old. This shows that the physical requirements are still very high.
Lan Jin sent a message to Huang Jinghe, "Do you want to sign up? I suggest you don't go."
