Chapter 165: Stockpiling Supplies in a Disaster World (4)
She ran to find Yan Lang and found him in the next room. Yan Lang had put on all his clothes and looked like a big steamed bun.
"I saw what you said in the group. Don't be so particular at this time. Just put on some light clothes first."
"Then, husband, hug me first."
"Go, go, you're cold, don't touch me."
Seeing Yan Lang’s impatience, Lin Xiaofei suddenly felt that she had given her dark heart to the wrong person!
But she was used to being humble in front of Yan Lang, so she could only mutter "virtue" under her breath and ran to put on her clothes.
Soon, the weather taught everyone a lesson. The blizzard lasted all night and the first floor was buried in snow.
The temperature has dropped a lot, and the Internet is intermittent and has not improved.
After a few days, the atmosphere in the group became much more depressed. Even when people were connected to the Internet, they were exchanging information in the group. However, no one knew much, and the information passed back and forth only increased panic.
Even if there are messages asking for help, there won’t be so many enthusiastic people. After all, at a time like this, everyone can only take care of themselves first.
This made it difficult for those who didn't have much food stored at home. They were crying out in hunger in the group and started to buy food at high prices. Even a potato was sold for hundreds of yuan, but no one was willing to sell it.
People who ask for medicine are more likely to get a response. After all, some people have a lot of medicine at home and are not sure whether they can use it. At this time, someone said pitifully in the group, "My child has a cold and keeps coughing. Please, kind neighbor, can you sell me two cold medicine pills? I'm paying a high price!"
The person who spoke also posted a photo of a child, who looked quite pitiful. The child's face was lifeless, his face was red and dull, and there was a fever-reducing patch on his forehead.
Sure enough, someone said, "You don't have to pay me. I have extra cold medicine here. I can give you two tablets."
"That's great, thank you. Please tell me which building it is and I'll come get it right away."
It was so cold that no one wanted to move, so the man told her the specific room number and asked her to come and get the medicine.
But after more than an hour, that person suddenly sent a voice message in the group in shock and anger, "Don't be fooled, damn it, they are cheating! The people who came just now were not women at all, but several men. They tricked me into opening the door, and then came in to steal things. They took away all my food and punched me several times. Damn it, I'm going to call the police!"
"The property management, stop playing dead! Is there anyone in charge? Someone broke into the house and robbed it! The police phone line is not working!"
He was so angry that he sent a lot of voice messages in the group. A few people joined him in cursing, saying that these people were disrespectful. Others reminded everyone to be careful. He just felt that the photo of the sick child looked familiar, so he checked online and found that it was an Internet photo.
But most people didn't speak until the cursing stopped and the group fell into a strange silence.
What happened just now seemed to have opened the floodgates of some taboo.
Yes, if you are out of supplies and lack food and clothes, you can go and rob!
Anyway, no one cares about it now, so we can deal with the future later. Let’s get through the current difficulties first. The usual rules can no longer constrain them.
I didn’t want to rob anyone, and I didn’t dare to help others anymore, for fear that I would be targeted too.
At this time, Ning Ning's mobile phone received a notification sound. Someone sent a message. Ning Ning took a look and found that it was from the property management.
"Mr. Ning, there is something I want to discuss with you. We have been in contact with the head office, but the road conditions are too bad right now and the supplies can't be transported. I know you have a lot of things in hand, can you take some out and share them with everyone? Even if you borrow them, we will keep a record and will definitely return them to you in the future."
"A Ning, what should we do? Should we give her something?"
Li Huifang also saw the news and was hesitant.
"Mom, you don't have to pay attention to them. When we stockpiled supplies, even if other neighbors didn't notice, the property management must have noticed it, and that's when they came to our door. But the things we stockpiled are just a drop in the bucket for the entire community, and it's useless to donate them. Moreover, how are we going to distribute the donated supplies? Are we going to listen to them?"
"Well, An Ning, what you said makes sense. Mom will ignore them."
Seeing that Ning Ning and her son did not reply, the other party became more and more tough in his words. He still wanted to hold them accountable and questioned why they hoarded those things for no reason and whether they had any ulterior motives.
From what they said, it seemed as if this natural disaster was caused by Ning Ning.
Ning Ning ignored them. They said a few harsh words and then stopped talking.
In the middle of the night, Ning Ning received a signal from the surveillance camera placed in the corridor that someone was coming up the stairwell.
Ning Ning woke up Li Huifang first and whispered to her not to be afraid, in case there was any noise and she would not know what happened.
"A Ning, you must be careful and don't open the door for them! Don't worry, Mom is not afraid!"
Ning Ning walked quietly to the stairwell and watched the movements outside through the surveillance camera.
Sure enough, the man who delivered the item that day, led by a few security guards, came up on tiptoe, dressed warmly.
"Brother Xiaohei, is there really anything here?"
The man was called "Brother Xiaohei". He nodded and said, "Of course, I have delivered many things to his house. Erhuang, I will go first. After I knock him down, you and Dasong will go and move the things."
"But, there is an old lady in his family."
Da Song kicked him in the ass, "What are you afraid of, an old lady? Just give her two slaps and she'll be fine. Didn't you also hear what that woman said? His old lady likes to stock up things at home. She probably bought some cheap stuff and stored a lot of it at home."
"Hehe, that's great, we've got a good deal now. By the way, why should we listen to that bitch surnamed Lin, and that bastard surnamed Yan? They usually look down on us, as if someone owes them five million. Now at this time, they're still bossing us around. We go and rob things, and we have to share them when we come back. Why?"
Brother Xiaohei looked back at him and said, "You are stupid, who said we should break up with them?"
"Yes, Brother Xiaohei is right. We won't share it with them. But, hey, that woman is quite pretty."
"We're here now. Stop imagining things. Hey, is this the door here?"
In their hands they had either hammers or wrenches, which were usually kept in the property office, but they were troubled by the door to the stairwell. This place had been modified by Ning Ning, and the entire corridor was "wrapped" with thick steel plates, leaving a door specifically for going down the stairs. This door was locked on Ning Ning's side, and they couldn't open it at all.
If you smash it hard, not only will it make a lot of noise, but it will also take forever!
Ning Ning was also afraid of being discovered, so the last step in stockpiling supplies was to renovate this place.
Xiao Hei and the others were stunned. At this moment, a square hole suddenly appeared on the door. This was the "sniper position" that Ning Ning left for herself. Before they could react, a white smoke sprayed out!
