Chapter 14 The situation is getting worse
Seeing that Yang Beijia's forehead was bleeding, the neighbors who were still in fear had a deeper understanding of Chi Yue's cruelty.

Even though some people were not used to it, they did not dare to criticize her in public, they just kept a distance in silence, so as not to get into trouble.

A group of people headed back to Yujing Bay sullenly.

In Building 2, worried family members and curious neighbors gathered in the lobby, waiting patiently for their return.

Seeing them come back with a rewarding experience, some were happy, some were jealous, and even some who were still shaken decided to go out.

"How many things are there in the supermarket?" The person who decided to go out asked anxiously, "Is it too late for us to go now?"

"It's definitely in time."

"There are a lot of things, but there is no mineral water and rice noodle oil, all instant drinks."

"That's more abundant than the materials distributed." After receiving the favorable information, everyone's face showed excitement.

They surrounded the people walking in front, Chi Yue and Wen Qizhou didn't want to join in the fun, so they dragged the cardboard boxes and quietly left the crowd.

For a period of time thereafter, residents traveled together every night to search nearby supermarkets.

Even though the government stopped distributing supplies as scheduled in the third week, people were not so flustered.The only thing that bothers them is that the number of times they are robbed when they go out is becoming more and more frequent.

It is extremely difficult for ordinary people to deal with robbery gangs. The number of people in the community who came back with injuries is increasing day by day, and a small number of young and middle-aged people lost their lives when fighting with robbers.

Families of bereaved loved ones are in grief.

Some people grow old all night, some people can't stand the stimulation and jump off the building, and some take revenge on the society and indiscriminately hurt people with knives.

Wen Qizhou, who has seen many dead bodies recently, has gradually become like Chi Yue, able to calmly view the death of others.

Hearing the "dong" sound again, he just followed the sound and glanced downstairs, then looked away as usual.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead, and returned to the bedroom with the boiled brown sugar ginger tea: "Yueyue, does your stomach still hurt?"

Chi Yue's menstrual period came to visit.

She usually only suffers from back pain and weakness, but because she has eaten too many cold drinks recently, she also feels a little pain in her lower abdomen.

"It's much better." Lying on the bed, Chi Yue's face turned slightly pale: "Help me get the small square blanket from the closet."

"Which one?"

"The blue one."

Wen Qizhou found it.

He watched Chi Yue spread the small square blanket under his body, a little puzzled: "Are you cold? How about I change the mat?"

"It's not cold." Chi Yue yawned, her almond eyes were filled with water vapor: "I'm afraid it will leak out, so it will be easier to cushion it."

What's leaking is obvious.

Wen Qizhou, who understood, took off her shoes and went to bed, put his palm on her lower abdomen, and rubbed gently: "Why don't you use diapers?"

"...Those are called pajama pants." She laughed helplessly, and explained: "The pajama pants are very thick, and they will be stuffy when used."

"That's it." He was taught.

Wen Qizhou fed her ginger tea, raised his arm to pillow the back of her neck, and coaxed her to sleep in a quiet environment.

He knew that visiting during menstrual period would lower a woman's resistance, so he took care of her like a porcelain doll.

For four or five days in a row, he alone took care of cleaning, entering the space to collect vegetables, and feeding poultry.

In addition, he will cook himself.

Either stewed chicken with Codonopsis ginseng, stewed pork ribs with red dates and lotus root, or fried pork liver with roasted fish... I tried my best to make up for her.

He came in different ways every day, not only did Chi Yue not get bored, but his complexion also improved a lot.

"Pray for a boat." She came out of the shower, walked to the sofa and paused: "It seems that someone is knocking on our door."

"I'll go out and see."

Wen Qizhou turned off the iPad and walked outside.

He glanced through the cat's eyes and saw Yuan Chuan's all-too-familiar face, so he pressed the doorknob with confidence.

When inviting the other party into the room, he followed the strong smell of iodine and looked at Yuan Chuan's right shoulder: "Are you injured?"

"Yeah." He handed Wen Qizhou a cigarette, and said calmly: "I came back last night and met robbers. When I fought with them, I accidentally got stabbed."

Yuan Chuan has a heavy burden on him.

In order to feed his family, he dared not stop, and every two days he would go out in teams with people in the community to find supplies.

Injuries are inevitable.

"Then why don't you rest for two days?" Wen Qizhou understands his difficulties, but still persuades him: "At this time, your body is the most important thing. If you have something good or bad, what will Sister Hui and the others do?"

"I know." Yuan Chuan sat on the sofa and exhaled a puff of smoke ring: "Your sister Hui doesn't allow me to go out now."

Lu Hui cried a lot last night.

He thought that the supplies he had found during this period could last for ten days and a half a month, so he simply listened to her and focused on recuperating his injuries first.

Wen Qizhou was a little relieved: "How is the situation outside?" Speaking of which, they haven't gone out for nearly a week.

"very bad."

It was so bad that he sighed again and again: "The supermarkets in the city center have almost been searched, and there are very few mineral waters to be found."

"Someone was so thirsty that he ran to the river to fetch water to drink. As a result, he vomited and diarrhoea, and even had a high fever in severe cases."

Chi Yue sprayed the mouth freshener twice, stepped on flip flops and walked in front of them: "Did they drink it without filtering it?"

"It's filtered." He moved his butt twice, and approached the vertical electric fan: "Some people don't understand, thinking that the water can be taken in when it becomes clear, so they don't filter it much."

"No wonder."

She then asked about the community.

Only then did I learn that Sister He's parents-in-law, Mrs. Wu, her young grandson, the young man whose mother was killed on the [-]th floor, and three neighbors who couldn't be named but who were familiar with him all died unexpectedly.

There were also many deaths in other buildings.

Occupying other people's houses, bullying men and women who live alone, killing pets, and snatching solar panels also often happen.

People live in trepidation, and the defenses among neighbors have become more and more serious. People who usually get along with each other don't see each other very often.

"I want to add a door to the safe passage." After Yuan Chuan finished talking about the general situation, he explained the purpose of his visit: "The seventh floor is currently unoccupied, so we can remove a door and lift it up."

"Okay." Wen Qizhou followed him downstairs.

Taking advantage of the gap between them lifting the door, Chi Yue took the toolbox and removed the lock that Wen Qizhou had hung on the door some time ago.

The corridor was sweltering like a steamer.

She just removed a lock and trampled a few cockroaches to death, and a thin layer of sweat broke out on her neck and back.

When the two physical workers came up, the short sleeves they were wearing were all wet with sweat.

"Brother Yuan, is the door of your house secure?" Chi Yue wiped Wen Qizhou's sweat before handing them two bottles of righteous energy water.

"Sturdy." He asked Wen Qizhou to hold the door: "The door of my house is still locked by pupils, and ordinary people can't open it at all."

That's why he felt relieved to go out.

Otherwise, he would be worried when he was thinking about his home outside, and no amount of supplies could alleviate his worries.
