Natural Disaster: I Started By Hoarding Tens Of Billions Of Supplies - Chapter 86

Chapter 86: Another Group Of Robbers
Huang Zhihui touched her bruised face and grimaced in pain, “Qiqi asked Elder Sister Xiang to train her last night, so I decided to train with her. Who knew Elder Sister Xiang was a Spartan trainer? We only trained for two hours this morning, but we had suffered a lot under her iron fists.”

Yao Ran looked at the two of them and saw the determination in Deng Qiqi’s eyes. What happened last night seemed to have a significant impact on this gentle young woman.

Yao Ran smiled at them and said, “It’s good to exercise, but don’t get hurt.”

Listening to her advice, Huang Zhihui and Deng Qiqi nodded.

After talking for a while, Huang Zhihui almost forgot the purpose of coming and asked, “Elder Sister Yao Ran, do you know what happened last night?”

Yao Ran shook her head, “I don’t know. I was too tired and sleeping deeply.”

She looked at Huang Zhihui’s eager expression and asked, “Do you know anything?”

Deng Qiqi said, “Lu Hong was robbed last night.”

Yao Ran raised her eyebrows slightly, waiting for them to continue.

Huang Zhihui snorted and explained, “Yesterday, they brought back a lot of supplies, and those people under him were bragging about how much supplies they got. Their bragging definitely annoys someone, and they were targeted. After we were attacked last night, Lu Hong and his group were robbed.”

Deng Qiqi nodded and added, “I heard that those people attacked unit 0804 first. Lu Hong and others heard the screams and rushed there. When they arrived, the robbers were bullying the wife of that family. They managed to save her, but they also got injured in the process.”

“Unfortunately, when they returned to Lu Hong’s house, all the supplies they had gotten before were robbed. Those who were left to guard the supplies were killed, but they managed to keep two rubber boats.”

“I also heard that Lu Hong hid some supplies and two more boats in different houses. Otherwise, they would starve to death after losing the boats.”

After listening to their stories, Yao Ran thought for a moment and said, “The robbers are luring tigers out from the mountains. These robbers seemed to want to use Lu Hong and his group to collect supplies, treating them as leeks that could be harvested repeatedly.”

She frowned slightly, “These robbers are very smart. I don’t know if they are on the same team as those who attacked us last night. If they were on the same team, it would be troublesome.”

Huang Zhihui heard this and said, “In addition to those who were killed last night, there are many people injured in the confrontation. They came to find you this morning, but Elder Brother Long Yu drove them all away. Two more people came just now and begged us to let you save their husbands.”

Deng Qiqi added, “Not only that. I heard that Lu Hong also found Elder Brother Long Yu and wanted to join forces with us, but he was rejected. When he left, Lu Hong said he would come back again later.”

Hearing this, Yao Ran chuckled and said, “After what they did to us, they still dared to come and ask us to help them. These people are so shameless.”

While they were talking, Jia Xiang came. She smiled at Yao Ran and asked, “Yao Ran, do you want to go out with us today?”

Yao Ran had already looted what she needed from the surrounding area, and it would be dangerous to go any further in the current weather and situation. Moreover, the severe cold is coming, and the temperature is getting colder day by day. She would rather rest at home for a few days and tend to her plants.

Yao Ran thought for a while and shook her head, “I want to stay at home today. Due to the cold weather, the vegetables are not growing well. I want to see if I can save them.”

When Jia Xiang heard that her favorite vegetables were not doing well, she felt sad and quickly said, “Then you better stay at home today. Do you need anything? I can help you find them if you want.”

Yao Ran shook her head and thanked her. “I have everything I need at home. Thank you for your offer.”

Jia Xiang smiled and said, “It’s nothing. We should help each other.”

After talking with Yao Ran for a while, Jia Xiang goes back with Huang Zhihui and Deng Qiqi. Not long after, Yao Ran saw them leaving in a rubber boat with Huang Qian and Shi Xuan.

By the afternoon, family members of those injured by the robbers last night had come several times. Yao Ran was annoyed by those people.

Long Yu noticed her coming and going in the morning and came out to check the situation. Looking at Yao Ran’s gloomy expression as she walked to the stairs, Long Yu stopped her and said, “Go back. I will deal with them.”

Yao Ran was annoyed by those people and didn’t want to see them. She nodded and said, “Okay.”

After watching Yao Ran return to her apartment, Long Yu went to see those people who knocked on the metal doors. A few minutes later, screams were heard from the stairs.

“Ah!”

“Ugh!”

“Please, don’t hit me!”

Yao Ran raised her eyebrows when she heard the screams. From the faint screams she had just heard, she knew that Long Yu had beaten those troublemakers. With a smile on her lips, she walked to the kitchen.

After her past life experience, Yao Ran found it difficult to trust people again. Even if she had stayed with Long Yu and knew that they were friendly to her, she couldn’t tell them her secret.

After all, at the end of the world, the most dangerous thing is not mutants or lack of supplies but the human heart. Not to mention friends and colleagues, even family members will resort to cannibalism in the darkest times.
