Back to the end of the world: I rely on hundreds of millions of materials to lie down and win natura

Chapter 18

Ten o'clock that night.

The couple met Yao Chengxu and Yuan Chuan in the corridor. In order to prevent someone from stealing the house, Chi Yue handed over the loudspeaker to Zhao Peng and asked him to call them loudly when he noticed any changes.

"Don't worry." Zhao Peng patted his chest and said seriously, "I promise not to let outsiders approach our house!"

"If you really encounter any situation, don't be tough with them." Yuan Chuan has no confidence in Zhao Peng's force value, but he is not good at beating him in public: "Life is the most important thing."

"I know."

Confirming that he had listened, the four rushed to the rooftop to attend the meeting.

They stood in the corner, watching the exhausted and haggard residents who were tortured by the extreme heat, walking gradually without energy.

I especially remember that when we first received supplies, there were more than a hundred people who came, and they greeted neighbors with smiles and chatted with each other to pass the time. It was a friendly scene.

Now, there are only fifty people left.

They no longer chat with their neighbors, they are half a meter away from each other, their faces are defensive, tense and numb.

The rooftop, which is wider than before, is filled with a lifeless atmosphere, and even the evening wind that blows is oppressive.

"Brother." Liu Xiong's arrival dispelled the haze covering them.He withdrew his hand on Wen Qizhou's back, frowned and asked, "Why do you smell?"

"Who has no smell?" Yuan Chuan felt that he was talking nonsense, he grabbed his collar and pulled it up, put it on the tip of his nose to smell it: "I feel like I'm going to rot."

"He doesn't smell like you."

"Why is it different?"

Liu Xiong ignored him.

He simply asked Wen Qizhou: "Did you fall into a cesspit just now? Or did you step on shit?"

"..." Wen Qizhou said calmly: "I ate snail powder before I came here. The smell is very strong and it is easy to stick to my body."

He didn't tell the whole truth.

It’s true to eat snail powder, but it’s hard to keep the smell on the body for a long time. They deliberately sprinkled the soup base on the dirty clothes that have been worn several times, so that the smell of sweat and the smell can be mixed together to create a long-lasting smell. The illusion of not taking a shower.

"No wonder." People who have never eaten snail powder have also heard about its power, so they easily believed his words.

Yuan Chuan thought he liked to eat that stuff, so he thought about going downstairs to get him a few bags later.

Anyway, no one eats what he collected.

"Here's the meeting." Chi Yue saw Sister He and her husband at a glance, and diverted their attention with a voice.

I haven't seen her for a few days, and Sister He's state is like a woman's, her back seems to be bent by a heavy burden, she no longer has the high spirits of the past, only the sluggishness that can be seen with the naked eye.

She stood on a round low stool with a loudspeaker and counted the number of people with her eyes: "Why did only 53 people come?"

Someone replied: "More than ten families in our building went to the subway station to escape the summer heat."

"I know that." She glanced at her husband on the left and asked, "Where are the rest? Didn't you notify?"

"Notified." Her husband's condition was not much better, and he said weakly: "They won't be able to come for the time being."

Either they were injured, or there were only one or two old, weak, sick and disabled in the whole family, and they couldn't go out.

Sister He stopped asking.

She talked about the content of the meeting: "I called you up this time, mainly to discuss the safety issues in the building."

"I'm sure you all know that burglaries are not uncommon now. If we let this go on, the beasts will definitely become more rampant!"

"So I was thinking, should I form a small team to patrol the building every day?" Sister He licked her chapped lips twice, and tried to convince them by counting the benefits of patrolling.

Finally, I asked, "What do you think?"

"Yes." There were quite a few people who agreed to patrol, but disagreements arose when it came to candidates.

One of the women with sunken cheeks turned her eyes and pointed at the young and middle-aged man standing next to her: "They are tall and strong, and they are very suitable for our patrol."

Anyone with a discerning eye can see what she is thinking.It was nothing more than relying on the fact that I was old, thin and thin, and would not be selected into the patrol team, so I provoked people for myself.

"Do you want me to work for you? Dreaming!" The young man slapped her hand away vigorously, indicating that he would not participate.

Another sly-eyed person suggested: "Don't the people on the 26th floor have guns? Let them do the patrolling."

Sister He looked at the people on the 26th floor.

If the captain of the patrol comes from someone with a weapon in his hand, then the participation of other people will definitely be higher.

She directly arranged for Wen Qizhou and Yuan Chuan: "Then you each pick five team members, and then see how to shift shifts."

"Have we agreed?" Wen Qizhou looked at her jokingly for a moment, exuding a sense of oppression all over his body.

Sister He said loudly: "The meaning of the patrol team is to increase security for everyone! When you patrol the entire building, you are also protecting your family! Don't you understand this truth?"

"Stop doing this!" Yuan Chuan didn't want to tire himself out trying to manage a bunch of irrelevant people: "Whoever wants to participate will participate, anyway, we don't care, and you don't discuss it with us."

"How can you be so selfish?!"

"Selfish?" Chi Yue smiled: "You are not selfish, go ahead, why do you always think of pushing others out as targets?"

With the growth of robbery gangs, the chances of patrols encountering danger at night are extremely high.

If they are blocked in the corridor by robbers, not only will it be difficult for them to escape, but they will also be easily pushed out by their teammates.

No matter how you look at it, it is not a good thing.

"Forget it." Sister He's husband was afraid that she would let him join the patrol team impulsively, and persuaded him: "Everyone has different ideas, and if they don't want you, there is no need to force them."

Sister He could see that all of them were not good-natured, even if they tried hard, they couldn't change the current situation.

She swallowed the breath that was stuffy in her chest: "Then I'll give you four bags of instant noodles, and you can lend me your gun."

"No." Chi Yue turned around and left.

The man with wicked eyebrows and mouse eyes immediately blocked the door with the young man in blue behind him: "If you don't want to borrow it, you have to borrow it!"

They thought it was best for Chi Yue to make the most of it, and immediately showed the fruit knife, trying to exchange her life for a gun.

The moment the fruit knife was swiped, Chi Yue reacted very quickly and dodged sideways, kicked the man's abdomen, and took advantage of his body shaking, grabbed the knife and pressed it against his neck.

She slashed fiercely, and the cut artery suddenly gushed out blood, splashing on her fingertips.

At the same time, Wen Qizhou caught the young man in blue who wanted to attack her sneakily, bent his wrist bone upwards, and stabbed him in the chest with a knife mercilessly when the other party screamed.

The pupils of the youth in blue shrank sharply.

The second he fell to the ground, he glanced at the mouse-eyed man who had lost his life, coughed violently twice, and stopped moving.

Everything happened too quickly, and the residents who witnessed the whole process retreated subconsciously, looking at the couple in horror or admiration.

Time seemed to be paused.

No one spoke.

Chi Yue threw away the fruit knife in her hand and looked back at them. Even if she didn't say a word, people could receive a warning signal from those indifferent eyes.

Sister He, whose legs were weak from the fright, held her husband's hand tightly, not daring to mention the matter of lending the gun to the patrol again, and just watched her and the others leave one after another.

*
The patrol was never formed.

People with abilities and skills dare not take risks, so how can the rest of ordinary people dare to take the lead?I can only let it go.

And after the killing on the roof, those who wanted to use weapons also stopped thinking.

Instead, the robbery gang, who were staring at them, came up with a new trick and decided to use the beauty trick with the highest success rate to break into the interior.

"Knock Knock──"

There was a knock on the door of Room 2601.

Wen Qizhou glanced at the woman in the white suspender dress outside the door through the cat's eyes.

Ask vigilantly, "Is there something wrong?"

"Sir." The woman looked up at the cat's eyes, her deer-like clear eyes filled with helplessness: "I left my key at home, can you go upstairs and help me pick the lock?"

"Who told you to come?"

"Ah?" She paused, as if aware of his suspicion, and explained innocently: "No one, I came by myself."

Wen Qizhou didn't believe it at all.

Not to mention how the other party opened the door of the safe passage, the fact that she dared to wander alone in a corridor that may be dangerous at any time is enough to show that something is unusual.

"You find someone else, I can't help you." He hasn't finished squeezing the juice for Yueyue, so he has no time to waste time with her.

"gentlemen……"

He turned and ignored it.

As soon as he raised his feet and took a step forward, he saw the figure branded deep in his soul, leaning against the wall and looking at him.

"Sir?" Chi Yue crossed her arms and raised her beautiful eyebrows in an unclear way: "Her voice is really nice."

"..." Wen Qizhou's back stiffened, and he had an inexplicable sense of being caught doing something bad.

He walked up to her in two or three steps, put his arms around her waist, and had a strong desire to survive: "It's none of my business no matter how nice it sounds."

"Then what were you talking about?"

"She asked me to help pick the lock." He relayed it verbatim, and emphasized: "I only said three words to her."

Seeing him tense his jaw, looking like he was afraid she would misunderstand, Chi Yue burst out laughing, and stopped teasing him.

She looked up at him: "I feel that she is not just trying to trick you out."

Wen Qizhou nodded.

He has seen too many tricks emerging in the business world, and his thinking has been sharpened enough. After a little thought, he can guess what is wrong with the group of people behind her.

"She probably wants to break into us." He hugged Chi Yue who was stepping on the slippers, and walked to the sofa in the bedroom.

"and then?"

"Then when we lower our defenses, she will obtain useful information and provide it to those who want to rob behind."

"...They don't bother too much."

"This is the same as the company sending spies to the opposite home. Only with enough patience can we get a favorable return."

Before they went to the shooting gallery, the four of Zhao Peng searched all the nearby police stations, but they couldn't find any guns.

It can be seen that guns are rare.

Those robbers wanted not only supplies, but also guns that would make them more unscrupulous.

Otherwise, they will not adopt devious tactics.

Chi Yue blinked slyly: "Then we will use our plan?" It is better to prevent future troubles forever than to prevent them for a thousand days.
