Chapter 19 Warm Gift
On the other side, after showing off the hot pot and watching the show, Jiang Jiang stretched lazily with satisfaction.
Originally, she planned to take a nap after eating and drinking, but then she felt that this was too decadent, so she spread out a yoga mat in the living room and prepared to exercise later.
After a whole morning and half an afternoon of hard work, Sun Hui and others posted new messages in the group, along with pictures.
They have cleared out all the zombies within unit three.
There were no zombies wandering in the corridor, but there were in some residents' homes. Sun Hui's team had technical personnel who could open locks. With his help, they opened the rooms with zombies and pried open those that could not be opened.
With sufficient preparation, they cleared all the zombies in Unit 3 without anyone getting injured.
There are eight zombies in total.
After hearing the news, not only the residents of Unit 3, but residents of the entire community were excited.
This is a good start. Unit 3 has been cleared, so will the other units be far behind?
Those residents who were originally hesitant also expressed their support for Sun Hui and others, hoping that they could eliminate the zombies from the entire community.
Sun Hui and his team also realized that their first step in establishing their prestige was very effective, and they immediately promised that they currently did not have enough manpower and hoped that everyone would actively join in, and then they would clear out the zombies one building at a time.
All the residents expressed their understanding and spoke up one after another. Suddenly, the whole group was bustling with activity, totally different from its previous deserted state.
Jiang Jiang was caught in the middle and also echoed a few words of encouragement.
If everyone in the community works together, maybe they can really hold on until rescue.
In the afternoon, Jiang Jiang first practiced yoga on the yoga mat for a while, and then did some strength training with dumbbells.
While she was practicing, she heard a commotion coming from the other side.
Jiang Jiang was a little curious, so he turned on the surveillance camera.
There were several young men standing at the door, carrying or holding a lot of things.
The man squeezed in the innermost part of the crowd worked for a while, and the door opened. Several people entered one after another, and with a bang, the door closed again.
Jiang Jiang guessed that the 15th floor probably couldn't accommodate so many people, so they found empty rooms to live in. They had previously asked in the group which floors were occupied and which were not, probably because they had this consideration.
Jiang Jiang turned the surveillance camera forward again, freezing at the moment when everyone opened the door, and frowned. Fortunately, her home was replaced with the most advanced combination lock, and it was a double door, otherwise she would definitely be worried.
Even if Sun Hui and his group had no ill intentions, their powerful fighting power was enough to frighten people and make them fearful.
It's not just Jiang Jiang who is like this, many residents in the community are the same. We have all heard the story of a young man who slays a dragon and eventually becomes an evil dragon.
On the third day of the apocalypse, some families had already started to run out of food.
Jinyuan community chat group.
Resident of Building 7, No. 1-: "Neighbors, please be kind. We are out of food and our child is starving to death."
After saying that, he also posted an emoticon of a penguin that was about to faint from hunger.
The cheerful chat atmosphere in the entire group suddenly froze.
Everyone thought, yes, even if the threat from zombies can be eliminated, what about the food? If there is food stored at home, it cannot be eaten every day, and it will be eaten up one day.
Do we still have to rely on Sun Hui and his team?
Many residents changed their minds and thought that if Sun Hui and his colleagues really delivered food to the residents on the seventh floor for free, they would have to get a portion even if they were thick-skinned. They were all neighbors, so why should they only give food to the people on the seventh floor?
For a while, many residents, regardless of whether they had food at home or not, said in the group that they had run out of food.
Unit 5, 3-1: 'My child is only one year and two months old, and he is running out of milk powder. Is there any kindhearted person who has milk powder at home who can give us some?'
Unit 1, 22-2: 'I have an old man at home, he is over years old, his teeth have fallen out, and he can only eat soft food. Can someone share some rice, steamed buns, etc. for him to eat?'
In order not to stand out, Jiang Jiang also sent a message saying that there was not much food at home. However, within a minute, it was pushed up by the message from residents in other buildings.
Seeing this, Sun Hui, as the administrator, directly turned on the mute mode and wrote in the group announcement:
'Those who are out of food and medicine can exchange information, food, medicine, tools, labor, etc. with us. The supplies are limited and will be exchanged until they are all gone. If there is robbery, serious injury, or death, we will severely punish the murderer.'
Jiang Jiang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the announcement. Fortunately, they did not provide free assistance to any family, otherwise, if this loophole was opened, it would be difficult to manage in the future.
Seeing that the crisis in the group had passed, Jiang Jiang planned to think about the next major issue.
What shall we eat tonight?
Now that there is no power outage, gas outage, or internet outage, Jiang Jiang thought about cooking something fresh for herself. As for the various cooked foods piled up in the space, they always have their uses and will not expire anyway.
After thinking seriously for ten minutes, Jiang Jiang finally made a decision to cook some rice noodles for dinner. There were some vegetables left over from the hot pot at noon, so it would be nice to make some hot pot rice noodles.
After an afternoon, the smell in the house was almost gone.
"Dengdengdeng."
There was a knock on the door.
Who is looking for her again? She obviously doesn't know anyone in the community.
Jiang Jiang quickly took out his cell phone and looked at the door.
"Sister, open the door, I'm Xiaolin from the 15th floor."
A childish voice came from the door.
Jiang Jiang also saw from the surveillance camera that the people standing at the door were the grandmother and granddaughter from the 15th floor. They both seemed to be carrying a bag.
Seeing that Jiang Jiang had not responded and the room was quiet, the old lady thought that she had fainted from hunger in the room and knocked on the door a few more times.
The people on the opposite side were attracted by the knock on the door. They opened the door, stuck their heads out and looked, and saw that it was Sun Hui's mother and daughter. They smiled and greeted them, then closed the door again.
It was not a good idea to let them stand at the door all the time, so Jiang Jiang walked to the door and spoke into the video microphone hanging on the wall: "I'm at home, is there anything going on between you and Xiaolin?"
A voice with a hint of electricity sounded at the door, and the old lady finally breathed a sigh of relief. She smiled and picked up the bag in her hand and said, "I saw you said in the group that you had no food, so I sent you some. Xiaolin has been talking about sending delicious food to the kind-hearted big sister."
She looked at the closed door and knew that the situation was different now. It was normal for Jiang Jiang to be a little scared. She then said, "You don't have to open the door. I'll just leave the things at your door. Remember to pick them up when the time comes. Our family is grateful to you for mentioning the nearby supermarket promotion a few days ago. Otherwise, our Xiaolin would have gone hungry. Please accept this little gift. Don't be polite to grandma."
As the old lady spoke, Xiao Lin nodded seriously, "Sister also gave me some snacks. If I have something delicious, I will share it with Sister."
After talking about the plan, the old lady took Xiaolin directly back to the 15th floor by elevator.
The entire corridor became empty again.
