Chapter 755: Seeking Support

the door! Get the person out, and evacuate everyone else from this building first."Wan Liang gritted his teeth and said.He immediately rushed to the fire extinguisher cabinet in the corridor, grabbed...Liàn Yī ripples his arms around the whirlwind in his embrace, then he thinks for a moment before saying to Yuán Chóngmíng:

"Big Brother Yuan, please leave now to find support. The faster the better, don't waste any time."

After Li Ge and Wei Feng came back with Zhao Jia, I went to check out their lair. I felt that these vanguard fighters wouldn't leave without orders. This group definitely had further plans. With them two back, someone had to stay behind to watch things just in case.

Although Yuan Chongming had a furrowed brow, he still nodded and immediately stood up to start packing. In less than fifteen minutes, he was armed and ready, then said to the two:

"I'll be back soon. You two should be careful too. Tie those thugs up first, and wait for reinforcements before handing them over."

Before leaving, Yuan Chongming couldn't rest assured and added another reminder.

"Don't worry, we will take good care of ourselves and Jiayao."

As Yuan Chongming departed, Lian'ri and Zhao Jia also began to prepare.

The ripples searched space for a mink coat, still white, with excellent concealment. She also dug out the temperature-controlled warming clothes, cashmere sweater and thermal pants, and topped it off with a pair of ice skates. She was basically ready, then she said a few words to Feng, so that the thrifty little guy wouldn't worry.

"Hurricane, your master is going out hunting and will bring you delicious food. You stay at home with Little House-shining and take good care of him. If bad guys break into the house, remember to hide and not be found. Wait until your master comes back and then he will help you get revenge."

"Meow!"

Feng couldn't quite bring himself to do it, but he nodded nonetheless.

"Oh my! Our little whirlwind is so smart!"

Ripple looked at the whirlwind that she had raised, not even a single stray hair. She couldn't help but pick it up and kiss it, which made the whirlwind meow in disapproval.

She has had Typhoon for two months now, and she has found that the little guy has not only gained weight but also grown taller, although it is not very obvious. What is more noticeable is that his fur is becoming thicker and longer, obviously to get through the extreme cold weather and evolve.

She wasn't just adapting to the cold weather, it was as if she herself was becoming a part of the winter. Unlike the first day when temperatures dropped, she didn't feel freezing after leaving her bed for just two minutes. It really shows how incredibly adaptable humans can be.

On the other side, Zhao Jia knocked on the door. Seeing Li's white mink coat, she was filled with envy and even touched it with her hand. Unable to hold back, she asked:

"Ripple, where did you get this" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Before the disaster, I bought one. I still have a short one, would you like to borrow it first I don't know if we have to stay hidden until midnight. Don't let the enemy find out our lair before we do, or we'll be caught.

Liàn Yī held onto Xuān Fēng and asked,

"Really I'll borrow it!"

Zhao Jia's eyes lit up and she immediately said, "This isn't the time to be sentimental. We need to borrow even supplies if we have to."

The ripple went into the bedroom and took out a white short mink coat from the closet, and handed it to Zhao Jia.

Zhao Jia immediately put it on, touched the fox fur with satisfaction, and said with a smile that didn't reach her eyes:

It looks like a good thing, thank you!

I still have some chocolate and snacks there, and some fresh pork. What do you want

"As for food, I'm good for now. I'll let you know if I need anything."

Ripples said generously.

Without exchanging a word, the two saw a large group of people returning to the neighborhood entrance. Lianyi from the window saw Li Qian and Sun Weifeng at the back, each dragging something behind them.

Ripple and Zhao Jia exchanged a glance, then quickly went downstairs to meet him. They took the opportunity to leave at the same time.

The people returning home all had happy faces, obviously with a good harvest. Each carried something in their hands, some even two people dragging a bag, squeezing through the broken window on the tenth floor to go back to their respective homes.

These people came back from their trip, all freezing to the bone. Each one had rosy cheeks, ice on their eyebrows and eyelashes. Some hands were red with cold, others wrapped in bandages, probably for warmth. Even so, they couldn't hide the joy on their faces.

"Li team, how are things going today"

Zhao Jia and Lianyi went directly to the back of their team.

"Today is still okay, we changed direction and didn't go to yesterday's place. It was a warehouse in the suburbs, kind of far away. There were some unfrozen containers with food and down jackets inside. It seems like they were for export but ended up being sold domestically."

Sun Weifeng began speaking with a handshake.

"Then you guys go back first, Jiayao can be home alone."

The ripples lowered their voice to the two people.

Where is Mingzi

Li Qian asked, knowing that Yuan Chongming only had this one relative left now, he usually watched him very closely. Today, he actually left his child alone at home. He was alarmed and knew something must be wrong.

He went to get backup. Someone shady snuck into our building today, but Mingzi and I caught them. They're the same group you guys met on your first day. They're a bunch of criminals who attacked the police station and had weapons. After you guys beat them back, they decided to target our building instead.

Those who didn't come back yesterday might have already revealed our information, so the three of us discussed and decided to strike first. Mingzi will go find reinforcements, while Ripple and I will investigate their lair. We don't want to be caught off guard later.

Zhao Jia explained the situation in just a few words.

"Maybe I should just go with Wei Feng!"

Li Qian frowned.

"Don't argue with us about this. You've been running around all day outside, and you must be very tired. It's not suitable for you to go investigate. Just stay home and take good care of Jia Yao. Wait for our good news."

Ripples flatly refused.

This time Li Qian didn't insist. They now felt a lack of enthusiasm, wishing they could huddle around a stove. Besides, they were starving. At noon, they only had some dry rations, and by now they were truly hungry. In this state, it was definitely not suitable to continue exploring outside.

"Alright, you two be careful! If you can't find anything, just come back first and we'll figure something out."

Li Jian instructed.

"Alright, you guys should head back soon. There's some warm food on the stove, eat up first and then we'll talk. We're leaving now."

After a brief exchange, Lianyi put on her windproof goggles and mask, then pulled the fur hat of her mink coat over her head, and left Shanshui Huating community with Zhao Jia.

One person was on a snowboard, and the other on ice skates. They were both very fast and disappeared from sight in less than half an hour.

Zhao Jia led the way. She remembered where the other party had said, it was a wealthy residential area in the city center, with higher elevation. Those who lived there were either rich or noble, with only six apartment buildings and the rest being villas.

According to those little goons, the mansion was flooded and only those six buildings were habitable. Their leader took over there and started gathering nearby refugees, claiming to protect them while charging them food as protection money. They bullied men and women, acting arrogantly because they had guns, so no one dared to resist.

At the beginning, those who resisted were all killed by Xu Lao Da, which intimidated the rest. They lived a comfortable life until they encountered them while robbing frozen pork in the suburbs. Discovering that they also had guns, Xu Lao Da became interested in them.ject before it leaves!"A woman wearing frameless glasses narrowed her eyes, crossed her arms and stood there, looking imperious."Since you want me to stay so much, why don't you come yourself"A ghostl...
