Chapter 39: Midnight Attack
One of them was so frightened that he fell to the ground when he saw that four of their men were dead. Before he could see who is their enemy, Yao Ran shot him in the head without expression.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
After dealing with that man, Yao Ran looked up and saw Brother Ma and the others bumping into someone. Before they could see who was blocking their way, they felt something cold brushed against their necks.
"Ugh!"
The next second, blood spurted out from their necks, and they fell to the ground. Yao Ran lowered the nail gun and approached the man who helped her.
She glanced at Brother Ma and others for a second and then looked at Long Yu, "Thank you."
"Mhm."
Long Yu looked back at the metal doors installed on the stairs and said, "They broke the lock." Yao Ran followed his gaze and found that the lock on the two metal doors was indeed broken. She thought for a moment and said, "I have some extra locks. Can you help change the locks?" "Mhm."
After he nodded at her, Long Yu dragged the bodies of Brother Ma and the others toward the window. Knowing what he wanted to do, Yao Ran also dragged the bodies to the window at the end of the corridor.
After they dumped the bodies, they returned home to get mops and water. The two then cleaned the corridor and fixed the door lock.
Returning home, Yao Ran thought about Long Yu. This man kills neatly and efficiently. Based on her experience, she is sure that Long Yu must have killed people before the end of the world came.
Seeing that he helped her deal with Brother Ma and the others tonight, at least he is not her enemy yet. As long as he doesn't offend her, they can maintain their current relationship.
After thinking about it, Yao Ran returned to the space to take a shower and change her blood- stained clothes. She threw the clothes into the washing machine and left the space. Returning to the warm bed, she fell asleep quickly.
Early in the morning, the resident on the 9th floor realized that someone had broken into his home and robbed him of all his food. The typhoon was still raging outside, and food was people's lifeline. But now, it was actually taken away by despicable people!
Residents from the first and second floors occupy the corridor on the 9th floor. There was no way they didn't know someone had broken into the house during the night while they were staying there.
Even if they think about it with their toes, the residents on the 9th floor know that the culprits who rob their food must be those people staying outside their doors.
Both sides were angry and had their own thoughts. They shouted and fought, and the noise lasted for a long time before they finally calmed down.
Residents on the 9th floor weren't the only ones whose houses were broken into last night. This has happened on other floors as well.
Although the noise awakened some owners, they could not see the robber due to the lack of lights, and the robber's face was always covered. This was clearly an organized robbery by a group of people.
Even if people living in the corridor saw the robbers coming, they would not dare to take action when faced with a gleaming knife or other weapons.
As they watched the robbers break the doors, their eyes were full of complexity and darkness. Some people even take malicious pleasure in seeing other people's misfortunes.
Those who were robbed deserved it because they refused to share their food. Now, everyone can starve together!
Others who heard the cries for help were afraid to come out and help. Instead, they dragged refrigerators, sofas, and other heavy furniture to block the door. They hid in their homes and did not dare make a sound, praying that the robbers would not target their houses.
For a while, the whole building was in chaos. Those who were robbed put on masks, took knives, and joined in robbing others. Evil thrives wildly in the human's heart during the stormy weather.
Yao Ran ignored the situation outside and adjusted her schedule. She ate dinner early, went to bed early, and got up in the middle of the night to work on her physical exercises and abilities. It had only been five days before Yao Ran heard some noises from outside.
She left her apartment with the nail gun and met Long Yu. The two nodded to each other and walked to the stair door in silence.
Yao Ran approached the metal door and listened carefully. Someone was indeed secretly trying to pry the lock.
It's been very chaotic and crazy these days. During the day, several groups of people knocked on the stair door, begging them and want to borrow food, saying that the children and elderly people at home were starving to death.
After being trapped for ten days without electricity and a way to get food, who still has food to eat at home?
Even if there is food at home- if you give it to one family and not to other people's families, won't they become hungry, jealous, and swarm to rob you?
In the current chaotic situation, no one dares to lend food to others, and everyone pretends to be poor.
After looking at Long Yu, Yao Ran then took a step back. She nodded to him and quietly opened the inner door, then quickly opened the outer door. Outside, the man who was prying on the door did not expect that the door would suddenly open.
Before he could scream, Long Yu covered his mouth and cut his neck with a dagger. The next second, the others came back to their senses and attacked Long Yu. But before they could take a step, Yao Ran shot them in the head.
The flashlight swung over and illuminated the dagger stained with blood in Long Yu's hand.
