The doorbell, which hadn’t rung in a long time, sounded in the quiet night, immediately putting the three on alert.
“I have no malice.”
The woman standing outside the door raised her hands above her head, indicating that she was not carrying any weapons, but there was a backpack in front of her.
“Isn’t this the person who went downstairs to get supplies the other day?”
Jiang Xianchuan was a little surprised when he saw the familiar face on the screen, wondering why she was looking for them.
“I’m here to thank you. I know you killed that man a few days ago, so I specifically came to thank you.”
“The one who fell from the building that day was my sister. My sister was pregnant, and then my brother-in-law was also killed by him. My sister hid me in advance, so I avoided the disaster.”
The woman continued, “After that man left that day, I secretly followed him and found that he put the food on the first floor and then came to you. I saw you fighting and killing him. No matter what, you killed my enemy, so I wanted to come and thank you.”
“The bag in front of you is the supplies he robbed from my sister. Take it.”
After listening to the woman’s story, the three fell silent, but they still decided to open the door, feeling a little sad when they looked at the woman who was desperately holding back her tears.
“We don’t need the supplies. Keep them. And you don’t have to thank us. We killed him only because he threatened our safety.”
“I also know a piece of news: City C has established a safety zone. I heard this on the radio yesterday.”
“Got it, thank you.”
The woman nodded and prepared to leave. Shi Yi picked up the backpack on the ground and shoved it into the woman’s hands, “You need this more.”
“Thank you.”
After watching the woman leave, the three closed the door and pondered the safety zone she had mentioned. Judging from her appearance, she seemed to be preparing to head to the safety zone.
There were still a lot of remaining supplies, so there was no need to go out for the time being, but if something uncontrollable happened in the future and they had to go out, the safety zone might be a good place to go.
“What’s wrong, Li Lingyu?”
Since the woman started talking about her family, Li Lingyu’s emotions had been a little off.
“Thinking of my mother.”
“Your mother is still…”
Jiang Xianchuan didn’t ask the next question, as asking someone if they were still alive was a little too cruel at this time.
“She died a few years ago, but her belongings are still at home.”
Looking at Li Lingyu’s lifeless appearance, Jiang Xianchuan frowned, looking at him with distress.
Suddenly, Jiang Xianchuan looked at Li Lingyu with a determined expression and said decisively, “I’ll go back with you! We’ll go to your house together to get your mother’s belongings!”
Li Lingyu, who had originally planned to refuse, was taken aback by Jiang Xianchuan’s sudden decision. He raised his head and looked at Jiang Xianchuan’s serious expression, unsure how to respond for a moment.
He knew that Jiang Xianchuan sincerely wanted to help him, but he was worried that it would cause trouble for the other party. The two looked at each other, silent and speechless, and the atmosphere became a little heavy.
“Count me in?” Shi Yi said from the side, “We’re all friends, we share blessings and share hardships.”
Li Lingyu’s heart warmed, and a trace of emotion flashed in his eyes.
“Thank you,” he said in a slightly low voice.
“Don’t mention it, we’re a loving family.” Shi Yi smiled and patted Li Lingyu on the shoulder.
Thus, the three made up their minds and embarked on a journey to Li Lingyu’s home together.
