Reborn in the end of the world, I scavenged in the empty city and bought for free
Chapter 79 A Few More Corpses
The route arranged by the property this time is Bauhinia Department Store. For most people, the first place they think of to loot is definitely a bustling department store. Moreover, the water level is so high now that basically only high-rise buildings are worth looting.
Gu Tongwan did not object. For her, she had already shown her face in front of the owners and the property management since the last meeting. If she did not go out with them now, it would arouse suspicion. For example, how did she live without water and electricity, whether she had a lot of food stored at home, or even if she had pets at home. Instead of being pointed at and targeted behind her back, it would be better for her to go out.
Most importantly, she remembered that there were the Financial Building and Zhenning Building near Bauhinia Department Store, so maybe it would be worth a visit to these places.
Rowing with oars alone seemed a bit strenuous, especially for Jiang Tian, whose hands began to ache after a while. She kept asking why her father didn't buy an electric one.
Jiang Zhi said indifferently: "The reservoir that Dad went to is not as big as the community. He can't use an electric one, and even if he did, he would have to row it manually because there is no fuel to start it."
Jiang Tian could only sigh repeatedly when seeing this, but the little girl was still very sensible. She only rested for less than ten minutes before continuing to row.
After arriving at Bauhinia Department Store, the water had spread to the third floor of the mall. Liu Feng and Xiao Li directed the kayak to the safety passage. Fortunately, the safety door was not locked. After several people worked together to open it, they tied the speedboat to the escalator railing with a rope. Just in case, two owners volunteered to stay and guard the kayaks. Anyway, they could get the supplies without any effort, which was actually a profit for them.
The remaining dozen or so people waded through the flood that had already reached their calves.
The mall is very dark even during the day, but not so dark that you can't see anything like at night. It's inexplicably scary to walk inside.
Gu Tongwan discovered that most of the supplies on the third floor had been moved away, and no one picked up the clothes floating on the water. After all, there was no shortage of clothes, and the most important thing was food.
After going up to the fourth floor, several middle-aged women immediately squatted on the ground and shouted, took off their shoes and shook out the water in them.
"I'm afraid of getting sandworm feet if I keep walking in the water. It would be terrible if I get a fungal infection." The aunt shouted.
No one responded to her. I always felt that this aunt was a bit annoying. She had been nagging since we got on the boat. She either said she was tired or complained that the property management was too demanding in asking for 20% of the supplies. But when we signed up before, she was the one who kept cursing and yelling and insisted on leaving.
Jiang Tian and Jiang Chi headed directly to the sixth floor. They had a clear goal, so they moved very quickly. On the contrary, Gu Tongwan chose to stay on the fourth floor.
This time she discovered that the warehouses behind every counter on the fourth floor had been opened (usually there is a door behind the counter, which is a storage room, but not for floats and mobile counters). After entering, she found that most of the materials in the warehouses had been emptied. She didn't know whether they were moved by the group of people last time or had been moved by the mall before.
The situation on the fifth floor was similar. The warehouse was basically empty, but there were still some scattered clothes displayed outside. Gu Tong just symbolically picked out some out-of-season items, and seeing this, others also took quite a few pieces.
After all, no one wants to go out empty-handed. Besides, these unnecessary things can be used as supplies for the property owner. Anyway, there is no requirement for what the 20% supplies require.
No one on the sixth floor gained much, but Gu Tongwan noticed that Jiang Tian's backpack seemed a little bulging, and the same was true for Jiang Chi.
At this time, everyone went up to the sixth floor and basically acted separately. No one wanted the supplies they found to be divided up by others.
Just when everyone was looking for it enthusiastically, suddenly there was a scream, which made everyone's heart tremble. They realized that it was the old lady who had poured water on the shoes before, so everyone quickly ran towards the place where the sound came from.
The old lady squatted on the ground, pointed her finger forward tremblingly and said, "Someone's dead!" Then she stepped back in horror, almost hugging Liu Feng's thigh.
Liu Feng pried open the old lady's other hand with some disgust and shone the flashlight over there. He gasped when he saw the scene in front of him.
There were seven or eight bodies lying in this restaurant, and it seemed that they had been dead for several days. The light beam fell on the face of one of them, and corpse spots appeared. The body began to swell gradually, and the most obvious thing was the huge wound on the neck.
Gu Tongwan frowned slightly. This person was not the one she met that day. It was possible that he was someone who took the risk to go out during the flood discharge period after she left, but might have encountered a massacre here.
The others had never seen a real dead person. Before this, they had been living peacefully in the community. Even after they ran out of food, they had never thought of killing or robbing. It was not until they saw the corpses in front of them that they suddenly realized that the society had been completely messed up by the natural disaster, and the murder might not happen just once.
Liu Feng's scalp also tingled. He stared at the bloody hole on the chest of the other corpse. Suddenly, he gritted his teeth and said, "Hurry up and search for supplies. We will evacuate to the next point in twenty minutes." In short, he didn't want to stay in this damn place any longer.
The harvest from this trip to Bauhinia Department Store disappointed everyone. Everyone carried some smelly vegetables or worm-infested rice in their backpacks. But thinking that the situation would only get worse in the future, they had to endure the nausea and carry back the flour that was even mixed with rat droppings.
When everyone left Bauhinia Department Store, most of them were still in shock and started discussing the dead bodies that had just been seen in the mall.
Even Jiang Tian couldn't help but ask, "Is it true that when the world ends, some people enjoy killing people?" As she said this, she leaned towards Gu Tongwan with some fear.
Although Gu Tongwan couldn't bear to see the little girl frightened, he still let her see the world clearly, "Even if it's not the end of the world, murder still exists. This natural disaster only provides an opportunity and place for some demons."
"Then, what should we do if we encounter that situation?" Jiang Tian raised her head, her little face full of fear.
"Protect yourself and learn to fight back when appropriate."
Gu Tongwan's voice was not loud, but very powerful, like a warm stream of water that enveloped Jiang Tian, easing her originally uneasy mood a lot, but at the same time she also lowered her eyes, thinking about the message in the words.
Ten minutes later, the girl washed herself and cheered herself up. While rowing hard, she also quietly tied a multifunctional Swiss Army knife that was originally placed in her backpack tightly to her thigh.
This time the four ships were divided into two groups, one group heading to the Zhenning Building in the east, and the other group heading to the Financial Building in the west. The two buildings were actually less than two hundred meters apart.
Gu Tongwan, Jiang Tian and the short and strong man who had collected supplies on the fourth floor all chose Zhenning Building.
I have the impression that Jiangcheng Radio and Television Station is on the 20th floor of Zhenning Building. If it is a TV station, there should be a live shopping center, which is worth exploring.
But at this time, Gu Tongwan and his group did not realize that someone had already been eyeing them several hundred meters away.
