Chapter 70 - 70

Chapter 70 ThoughtsQi Tianyu drove from night to day and back to night again before finally arriving at the entrance of the residential area. There was a stretch of road where two people had to push the car forward because they dared not drive.The courtyard of the residential compound looked messy and hadn't been cleaned for many days, but thankfully no body was found.He was my older brother's friend at the time, and when I bought a house in this neighborhood, I also got him a house.I hadn't lived here because of the bad location, and in just a few months, this upscale neighborhood has turned into this state. It just goes to show how unpredictable life can be."Brother Tianyu, which floor is your apartment on? Given the current situation outside, is it possible someone is occupying your place?"Qi Tianyu unzipped his down jacket and took out a gun. "With this, who dares to occupy my house?"However, I remember that the house was rented out. I went upstairs to take a look and I found out. The outside was in such a mess that I guess most of the people inside were dead.If you see anything bad, please don't scream! I'm annoyed enough already!Tang Xin nodded obediently to indicate that she understood, and carefully clung to the man's arm, afraid of falling because the ground was too slippery.Compared to the large villa areas I used to live in, the environment in this community is really not good enough. The main problem is that the yard is too small, there are no facilities, and it's messy.There are things that others have thrown away everywhere. If the weather gets hot, the smell will be absolutely disgusting.Only by following Qi Tianyu can she survive in the novel.Although she hadn't read the novel's ending, she felt that Qi Tianyu's ending would definitely be exceptionally good. The author wouldn't praise someone for no reason; a bad ending would be met with fierce criticism from readers!When I got downstairs, I saw that the door was tightly closed. I tried to push it open, but it was locked from the inside."The building is locked up. How are we supposed to get in? It's so cold!" Tang Xinstamped her feet, shivering from the cold.It was already cold inside the car, and even colder outside. I couldn't stand it after only a few minutes outside.Qi Tianyu knew that the main gate was usually an electronic gate, and since there was no electricity, there must be a padlock inside.He slammed his fist on the door and looked up at the entire building.The apartment he bought was on the 18th floor. Since he couldn't get in through the main door, he could only try to get in through the window.So I went to the window on the left and tried to push it open, but it wouldn't budge. This was the only window without security bars, so the only way to get in was through this window.I knocked hard but there was no response, so I guessed that no one was inside.So he found a brick and broke the glass, then cleaned it piece by piece before climbing up with his bare hands.Then they pulled Tang Xin up, and after a lot of effort, they finally got in.There was indeed no one in the house; there were traces of wastewater everywhere.The family photo had fallen to the ground and was now blurred from being soaked.The outline of the house suggests a family of six. There were no people in the living room or the bedroom, indicating that the house has been uninhabited for some time.Once you open the door and go outside, the elevator definitely won't take you any further.When I got to the stairs, the door was closed. When I opened it, I found it was locked, just like the main door outside. I couldn't see the lock from the inside.After shaking it a few times, I had no choice but to give up."I wonder who locked it, it's so annoying!" Tang Xin couldn't help but complain, and then felt cold, so she subconsciously tightened her clothes.Qi Tianyu didn't risk calling for help; who knew what might happen if he did? It was better to check how many people lived in the building before making a decision. Of course, he couldn't tell Tang Xin the truth, so he patiently explained..."It must have been locked by someone living upstairs. It's getting dark, and they're unlikely to come down today. Let's just wait downstairs; they'll come down sooner or later!"Tang Xin thought this made sense. As the old saying goes, "You can run away from the monk, but you can't run away from the temple; the monk will eventually come down."I wonder who the people living upstairs are. Could they be bad guys with knives?The two had nowhere to stay, and there was still a distance between the window and the car. Besides, it was late at night and the temperature in the car was very low, so they decided to lean against the wall, hug each other, and just make do with that....The next morning.The sound of a loudspeaker came from outside: "Hello everyone, we are government officials. You have all suffered during this time."We have established a relief base in Xinhua District. Survivors can go there to receive supplies and free food.The sound was extremely loud, and it played on repeat more than ten times.The sound gradually faded away; it should be played elsewhere.Su Xiaoyu watched the car slowly drive away through the window. She had to admit, the government staff really knew how to make a snowplow.This car is relatively bulky, but the chassis is very stable, even on roads that are full of potholes.Normal cars could easily crash and kill people if they drive on it.He frowned slightly when he saw an extra car in the yard.Someone has come in, but hasn't gone upstairs. They must have been blocked by the door in the stairwell, so they're still downstairs.There was only one vehicle, meaning there were either four or five people, or just two people.There were so few people, so I didn't think too much about it and went to the bathroom to wash my face and brush my teeth.This morning we had meat pies. Lin Xiuxiu made the dough last night and made sure to put it on the electric blanket, otherwise the dough wouldn't have risen.Heat oil in a pan, then place the beef patties in the pan and fry until the bottom is golden brown, then quickly flip them over.They're cooked in three minutes, and you can make seven or eight pancakes in one batch. But with so many people wanting to eat, it takes about an hour just to make one pancake.Jin Jun was helping out from the side, and he was so anxious that he wished he could make the pancakes in Lin Xiuxiu's place.We made about 40 pancakes in total, and each person was given three pancakes as a standard, plus a bowl of seaweed and egg drop soup. It tasted so good.There were a maximum of five pies on Su Xiaoyu's plate, and no one objected. They wouldn't dare interfere with the person the boss liked; that would be suicidal.Gu Lingxiao spoke only after they had finished eating."I've been waiting for you all to come and ask me these past few days how I ended up with a fire in my hand that day, but not a single one of you has come to ask."Jin Jun: "Boss, since you've told us yourself, then tell us what's going on. Do you have special abilities?"Gu Lingxiao said, "You can think of it as a special ability. This is a way for me to protect myself. I absolutely cannot reveal a word of this to outsiders."Everyone nodded firmly to indicate that they understood.They guessed that it was a special ability, after all, such people do exist, they just hadn't seen them before.However, the fire's special properties showed them what true destruction of a body meant. After the person was burned, he turned to ashes, leaving nothing but a pile of black ash on the ground.
