One of the residents on the second floor is Xiao Wanzitou, who follows the building patrol team. The remaining three households, 203, are vacant rooms to be rented, while 201 is a woman living alone, and 204 is a veteran.
Although everyone on the second floor survived, it was pretty good compared to other floors.
Moreover, Ms. Huang in Room 201 runs a small business in custom baking. She usually makes desserts at home and has a lot of flour stored at home.
But because she rarely went out and had contact with people, Ms. Huang didn't know that people's hearts are sinister, so she lent a lot of flour at the beginning, but predictably no one returned it.
Later, word spread that Miss Huang had flour, and some vicious "big brother" forced her to "exchange" some insignificant supplies at home.
At first, Ms. Huang refused adamantly, but as the social order became more and more chaotic, those who wanted to exchange flour became more and more rampant.
Several times in the middle of the night, she even tried to break open the door, which frightened Ms. Huang and forced her furniture against the door all night long.
Later, a veteran from 204 learned about it and helped drive away those thick-skinned people.
So even if you can survive, there will still be a shortage of supplies on the second floor.
"Jiang Meixin has registered. Does your family have any special needs?" Chu Man asked as usual after registering.
"I don't need anything, I have nothing to exchange." Jiang Meixin saw Chu Man's unfamiliar face and was hiding behind the door in fear.
"Little girl, don't be afraid. This is Chairman Yu's daughter Chu Man, not someone who takes advantage." The old veteran was also in the corridor, and with a sharp glance, the tattooed man and Wang Dazhuang who lived on the sixth floor immediately turned away as if nothing had happened. .
"Girl, there's nothing I can do. My house was burgled before, and I just lent you four kilograms of noodles and will pay you back eight kilograms in the future." Mrs. Zhu on the sixth floor saw the old veteran looking straight at her and immediately He said guiltily.
"Okay, when the supplies are distributed later, Mrs. Zhu, please come out and return them to others." Chu Man had heard about this a long time ago, but he didn't know Jiang Meixin before and it was difficult to intervene.
"No! My son is still waiting for a hot meal. She can't eat so much even if she lives alone. Why should I give it to her now!" Aunt Zhu immediately shouted, scaring the timid Jiang Meixin to close the door just a crack.
Chu Man ignored the furious Mrs. Zhu, and when she saw that registration had been completed on the second floor, she was ready to follow the team to the first floor.
"Not bad, I'm much braver now!" Chen Yuanyuan came to Chu Man's side and praised him.
"Thanks to you, haha!" Chu Man said happily.
In the past, Chu Man was bullied everywhere when she worked at the Diao cosmetics counter. In the past, she would have just watched and dared not say a word.
But after being helped by Chen Yuanyuan that day, he also got better development opportunities in the company, and became more and more confident.
When I met Jiang Meixin today, she was just like her old self, introverted and lacking in self-confidence, and I wanted to help her.
Chen Yuanyuan looked at Chu Man's change and felt happy for her. A cowardly and fearful character would have no good consequences in the end of the world.
After chatting for a few words, the two of them followed the group to the first floor.
When Chen Yuanyuan arrived on the first floor, she found that the water had reached her toes. The Splendid Garden was already on a higher ground. It was not difficult to imagine how some low-lying areas in Xiangcheng had become soaked.
"Chairman Yu, the head of household 102 is also dead!" After breaking open the door, the decoration worker saw the corpse of Jiang Zhi.
The power had been out in the dark house for a long time, and the stinky rainwater mixed with soil made everyone who entered the house smell the stench.
"Wait, don't go in yet!" Another decoration worker called out to the few people who were about to enter the house. He walked to the electrical and mechanical room in the corridor and turned off all the electric switches that had not yet tripped.
"It's probably a leakage of electricity. This old man was electrocuted to death." The decoration worker Ming Ge turned out to be a master electrician, so he felt something was wrong when he saw the dark corridor on the first floor.
"Hey, Mrs. Yao, have a good trip." Yu Yanqun said, looking at the body that was slightly swollen by the rain.
After everyone entered Room 102, they moved the bodies and searched as usual.
Yu Yanqun and Chu Man also continued to visit the next household.
Only two families were left on the first floor. One of them, Mrs. Ye, was a good friend of Mrs. Yao. She was devastated when she learned that she had passed away. Yu Yanqun stepped forward to comfort him.
During this period, Vice Chairman Fang, who was wearing gold-rimmed glasses, suggested that the residents on the first floor be moved to the vacant house upstairs. Yu Yanqun saw that the first floor was indeed uninhabitable, so she arranged for Mrs. Ye to move to the home of Granny Fan, who died of a stroke in 403.
There was also a strange man in Room 104 of another household. Everyone kept shouting outside but remained unmoved. It wasn't until Brother Ming broke in through the door that they saw a skinny man painting in front of a canvas.
"Is this Mr. Cai? We are members of the property owners committee, do you want to move upstairs?" Yu Yanqun recognized the painter as a tenant from a few years ago. He rarely went out, but he would still say hello when he met.
"Pigment," Painter Cai muttered to himself.
The artist looked like he was in a state of confusion. There were piles of empty water bottles and snack and bread bags next to him, and there was a bedpan that was almost full. It seemed that he had been completing his painting.
"Hello! Do you want help?" Chu Man shouted when he saw that the artist was confused.
"Me!! Don't kill me, I didn't see anything! Don't!" The painter looked at the crowd, and he didn't know what stimulated him, so he threw something into the crowd and shouted.
Seeing that the painter was agitated, everyone left the room first.
"I'm a psychiatrist. Let me go in and take a look." Vice Chairman Fang asked everyone to search other rooms first, while he went to comfort the painter first.
When Mrs. Yao's belongings on the first floor were packed up and ready to be moved to 403, Vice Chairman Fang also helped the painter out.
"He has been a little stimulated and his mood is not stable. How about he move to the ninth floor first? The 904 next to my house happens to be vacant. We can take care of him." Vice Chairman Fang said.
The painter, who was being supported by Fang Zhudu, looked pale and behaved like a little chicken, with his shoulders shaking slightly.
"Draw my picture." The painter kept pointing to the picture in the room.
"Okay, then let's ask someone to help him move it up. Don't worry, Mr. Cai, we will also move your paintings and painting supplies." Yu Yanqun said.
Chen Yuanyuan glanced at the artist's unfinished work. The entire painting was filled with eyeballs of different sizes forming an abyss. People with trypophobia must have felt uncomfortable seeing it, and every stroke of the entire painting also revealed an aura of despair and terror.
After noticing Chen Yuanyuan's eyes, Vice Chairman Fang went into the room and covered the unfinished painting with a white cloth.
"Don't be scared, Mr. Cai is not in a good mental state and his painting style is quite dark." Vice Chairman Fang said with a smile.
Chen Yuanyuan looked at Vice Chairman Fang, who cared about others and had a good-natured image, and had no favorable impressions.
In the last days, when everyone is in danger, people like Aunt Wang and Aunt Zhu, although annoying and annoying, have no real intentions and their purpose can be seen at a glance.
On the contrary, it is this kind of masked person who pretends to care about others that we need to be more careful about.
This kind of person usually hides a knife in his smile, but when he attacks, he stabs him in the back. Chen Yuanyuan ignored Vice Chairman Fang again, turned around and left the painter's house.
Vice Chairman Fang behind him raised his gold-rimmed glasses and looked at Chen Yuanyuan with dark eyes.
Dear readers, due to the issue of chapter division, there was a bit of confusion after it was released. Chapters 141 to 160 need to be moved a little, otherwise it will fly to chapter 161. The next update will be continued after chapter 161 as usual. Please forgive me. Got it
