"It's ours now." Wen Qizhou dragged out the last two boxes of supplies and returned with them the same way.

Returning to the 26th floor, he offered to distribute supplies.

Yuan Chuan, wiping his sweat, took the initiative and said: "You and Xiaoyue will be the main force tonight. You two will pick the rest and we will divide them up."

If they hadn't found the right opportunity to capture the king first, there might have been a big battle tonight, and it wouldn't be as easy as it is now.

Yao Chengwei and Zhao Peng agreed.

The three of them unanimously decided so, and Chi Yue was not polite and took away the food and three bottles of mineral water that he apparently needed. 

"Okay." She yawned sleepily, tugging at the corner of Wen Qizhou's clothes and preparing to go home: "You guys divide up slowly."

"Sister Yue." Zhao Peng rushed before her to enter the house and asked what he wanted to know: "Where did you find your gun?"

"Police station on North Street."

"Is it still available now?"

"I don't know, you have to go and take a look." Seeing that they were convinced, Chi Yue and Wen Qizhou closed the door and went to sleep.

Because of the deterrent effect, they did not install silencers when they used their guns, and many people in the building heard them. 

Neighbors were curious.

I was afraid that it would affect me, so I didn't go up immediately. Instead, I waited until the sky was slightly brighter to find out.

People who came one after another were too shocked to take a step closer when they saw the dead body hanging at the door of the safe passage.

The robbery gang observing them in the dark was also frightened by this act of killing chickens, and no longer acted rashly.

Chi Yue and Wen Qizhou are nestling comfortably at home, scheduling their time to the full every day, and not feeling bored at all.

"Qizhou." Chi Yue opened the calendar and asked Wen Qizhou, who was exercising, to measure the temperature: "What degree is it now?"

"59."

"Three degrees lower than yesterday?"

"It's five degrees." He took back the stagnant thermometer and suddenly asked, "Is the temperature about to return to normal?"

"About six or seven days."

"That's soon." He took a sip of water and walked to Chi Yue: "Will we leave Suishi after the flood is over?"

"Well, let's go to Lincheng first then."

The reason why Chi Yue stood still in the early stage was because Suishi City was relatively safe, and secondly she wanted to see him survive the flood period safely, otherwise she would not be able to get over the hurdle in her heart.

Pulling back her wandering thoughts, she climbed onto Wen Qizhou's neck and sighed, "It's a pity that I can't take this family away with me."

"It's okay." Wen Qizhou lowered his eyes and looked at her gently and firmly: "We will have a second home."

Upon meeting his gaze, Chi Yue's sad emotions suddenly disappeared, and her whole heart settled down.

As long as he is here, where is home?

She nestled in his arms for a long time, then suddenly raised her chin and kissed his lips.

After the kiss, she felt embarrassed. She lowered her head like a quail and said, "This is today's reward."

Wen Qizhou was so dizzy from being kissed that the warmth on his lips disappeared before he could feel the touch.

He rolled his Adam's apple slightly, and tightened his hold on her waist: "Is there still tomorrow?"

"see your performance."

"Then can I advance in advance?"

"...It's not like paying wages."

Chi Yue glared at him angrily.

She didn't refuse explicitly, so Hen Qizhou took it as a promise. He pinched her chin with his fingertips and lifted it up. Without hesitation, he covered her lips with hers, touching her lightly and slightly.

Breaths intertwined for a brief moment.

It was clearly a close relationship, but it made the two couples, who had been married for more than half a year, feel their hearts beat faster and the tips of their ears turn red.

Chi Yue looked at him for two seconds, her trembling eyelashes showing a hint of embarrassment: "I suddenly want to eat your cooking."

"Which dishes?"

“Curry beef and spicy chicken.”

"Okay." Wen Qizhou brushed away a strand of her long hair hanging on her temples and looked at the time: "I'm going to get ready now."

The generator at home only provides electricity for the master bedroom. He would ask Chi Yue to send him into the space every time to cook in it.

This time is no exception.

As usual, he first fed the poultry, then found out the ingredients he needed, and went upstream to the stream to clean them.

Then he held a round basin, sat at the long table specially placed for kitchen utensils, and handled the ingredients quickly.

About half an hour later, he called out to Chi Yue outside, and then appeared in front of her with the mouth-watering meal.

In addition to the two dishes she wanted to eat, he also cooked mung bean soup, a must-have in summer.

"It smells so good!" Chi Yue, who was aroused by greed, ate a piece of beef and praised: "Your craftsmanship is getting better and better."

"Is there any?"

"Of course." She put another piece to Wen Qizhou's mouth, her eyebrows arched: "My tongue won't lie to me."

"Then you eat more."

Wen Qizhou smiled and served her some food.

They enjoyed a lunch in a relaxed atmosphere that satisfied their taste buds and was sweet to their hearts.

Two days later, the temperature dropped to 55 degrees.

People don't feel much about the similar temperature, but they still feel extremely hot.

People who were short of water and food continued to rob, and residents who got into arguments with others and took action also caused many murders.

Only the 26th floor is always calm.

Even though the bodies hanging in the safe passage had been thrown downstairs by them long ago, the robbery gangs still did not move.

Seeing this situation, Chi Yue and Wen Qizhou decided to call Yuan Chuan and the others to go out to look for supplies before the extreme heat was about to end.

Everyone set out at two o'clock in the morning.

The destination this time was the shooting gallery that the couple often went to during the early days of the extreme heat.

Thinking that the floor of the shooting gallery was too low and would be easily flooded during heavy rains, Chi Yue thought of bringing Yuan Chuan here to try his luck, and if he found a gun, he would be able to provide protection for his family.

As for the others, it’s just incidental.

After all, the outside was becoming more and more dangerous, and it was impossible for her to bring Yuan Chuan into the space. If she encountered a robbery on the road, she would still need more people.

Yao Chengwei asked: "Sister Yue, you just said there is a supermarket in the shooting gallery? How big is that supermarket?"

"It looks like more than 30 square meters."

"That can hold a lot of goods." Zhao Peng, who was in the back seat, clasped his hands together: "Buddha bless you! I hope the things inside are still there! Don't let others get there first."

Yao Chengwei also prayed devoutly.

He looked out the window like Zhao Peng: "A good man is willing not to fall in love for five years, just asking for a chance to have a good harvest!"

Wen Qizhou: "..."

Chi Yue: "..."

She caught the message in Yao Chengwei's words and turned to look at him: "Are you planning to break up?"

"Already divided."

"When did this happen?"

"Last Saturday." Yao Chengwei's tone no longer wavered: "She gave Mrs. Wang two bags of instant noodles behind my back. I couldn't bear it anymore, so I broke up with her."

Chi Yue was not surprised.

A kind person like Yang Beijia cannot change until she suffers a big loss: "Then you still live together?"

"No, she moved to Mrs. Wang's house."

"..." There is nothing to say.

The topic ended here, and no one, including Yao Chengwei, wanted to mention anything about Yang Beijia anymore, so as not to spoil the fun.

"We're here." Wen Qizhou stopped the car.

They waited for Yuan Chuan and Brother Liu in the car behind to come over, and headed to the shooting gallery located on the third floor of the building.

Seeing that the rolling shutter door of the shooting gallery was intact, everyone was overjoyed. They worked together to pry open the remote control lock on the door, then pulled it out hard, and got in from the bottom one by one.

Chi Yue and Wen Qizhou took them to the shooting range.

She glanced at the gun rack against the wall and found that the once full gun rack now contained only three pistols and five boxes of ammunition, so she guessed that the boss had been back before.

And he didn't take them all away, either because he accidentally left them out, or because he wanted to keep a trump card and come back to get them later.

"You guys share these three guns." Chi Yue glanced at Wen Qizhou and said, "Qizhou and I only need two boxes of ammunition."

Everyone present knew they had guns.

They don't need these three guns, but they can't be so generous that they don't even give themselves bullets.

Yuan Chuan nodded: "Okay."

The process of dividing the guns was very harmonious. Yao Chengwei and Zhao Peng proposed to share one, and the rest was left to Yuan Chuan and Liu Xiong.

Liu Xiong and Yuan Chuan were moved by their humility, and silently decided to take more care of them in the future.

"Brother Zhou, how do you use this?" Zhao Peng touched the muzzle of the gun, his hands shaking with excitement: "It won't go off if I put it in my pocket, right?"

"No." Wen Qizhou took the gun and demonstrated it to them: "You can practice your aim with a bow and arrow first."

"Are there any bows and arrows here?"

"Yes." Chi Yue took them to the next door, took away a total of six bows and several wooden arrows, and then went to the supermarket on the right.

There are only some fast food, snacks, cigarettes and alcohol on the supermarket shelves, as well as no more than ten bottles of mineral water.

There is no such thing as rice, flour and oil. After all, the members who come here have no need at all.

They packed up the small amount of food, walked around the rest area, found four or five unopened bottles of water and drinks, and returned to Yujingwan carrying large and small bags.

When he reached the 21st floor, Liu Xiong took out a bag of food and handed it to Wen Qizhou: "Brother, thank you for tonight."

He was grateful to them from the bottom of his heart.

If they hadn't provided the location of the shooting gallery and were willing to call him, it would have been difficult for him to obtain a life-saving gun.

Wen Qizhou accepted it.

He put his hand on Liu Xiong's shoulder and patted him twice, and raised a smile on his lips: "We are all our own people, don't be so polite in the future."

"Okay." After both parties said goodbye, the remaining five people continued to go upstairs and returned to the 26th floor despite sweating.

Yao Chengwei and Zhao Peng also took out a bag of food before they entered the house and expressed their gratitude seriously.

Yuan Chuan is different from them.

He asked his wife to get four cabbages and stuffed them skillfully into Wen Qizhou's arms: "Tell me after you finish eating."

The relationship between the two families was much better than the others. Wen Qizhou didn't say any polite words and walked home with four cabbages in his arms.

When they woke up after finishing their studies, they learned from Yuan Chuan that Sister He had asked them to have a meeting on the seventh floor in the evening.

Chi Yue felt a little confused.

She spat out the toothpaste foam in her mouth, turned her head and looked at Wen Qizhou: "Does Brother Yuan know the content of the meeting?"

"It seems to be a safety issue."

"Then we are the only ones participating?"

"No." Wen Qizhou took off the towel, wet it and wiped his face: "Everyone alive in the whole building must participate."
