Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food

Chapter 39: Chapter 39 The Female Neighbor Downstairs

Hearing those words from inside the door, Granny Li and Yang Mei immediately looked delighted.

It seemed that there was a slight change in attitude.

Apparently, Song Wen wasn’t completely ignorant of the outside world.

She must have known what Liu Erlong’s group had been up to.

That’s why she was so nervous.

Yang Mei quickly said, ”Can you lend us your drone?”

”No way!”

As soon as Yang Mei finished speaking, a decisive voice from inside the door immediately refused.

In the room, Song Wen, dressed in silk pajamas, had a cold and stern expression.

Her face was pale, and her hair draped over her shoulders.

Her features were very delicate, resembling the actress Dong Xuan.

Her large eyes held a cold glint.

She was estimated to be about 1.7 meters tall, with a slender figure and a well-proportioned chest, her long white legs were very eye-catching.

At this moment, hearing that Yang Mei and the others were after her drone, she immediately felt alarmed and refused.

She had no food left at home, and for now, she was relying on this drone to salvage some supplies during the big flood.

Today, she got lucky and hooked a delivery package with her drone, which contained several packs of Three Squirrels snacks.

If she rationed these snacks, they could last her another two or three days.

So the drone was her only hope for survival right now.

How could she possibly lend it out?

Yang Mei immediately panicked and quickly glanced at Granny Li.

Granny Li patted the plastic bag in her hand, signaling Yang Mei to stay calm.

She spoke up, ”Xiaosong, Granny won’t borrow it for nothing; Granny can exchange food for it.”

Hearing this, Song Wen inside couldn’t help but show some interest and asked, ”You still have food?”

Granny Li picked up the plastic bag, opened it in front of the peephole, and took out some instant noodles, bread, and other food.

”Look, there’s a pack of instant noodles, ten bags of small bread.”

”Xiaosong, you should know how difficult it is to get these things now. These could exchange for quite a lot of fish downstairs.”

Song Wen’s pale face couldn’t help but show a hint of temptation as she swallowed hard, moving her gaze away with difficulty, and said in a low voice, ”A small amount of food like this... My drone can collect supplies without leaving the house and can carry up to ten kilograms at a time.”

Granny Li quickly said, ”Xiaosong, you can’t count it like that. Your drone needs electricity, and where can you get electricity now? Your drone uses up a lot of power each time you use it.”

”How many uses can you get out of it? Once the drone runs out of power, it will be completely useless.”

”Besides, every trip the drone makes doesn’t guarantee it will retrieve food.”

”So why not exchange it for some food instead?”

Granny Li, being the one from the neighborhood office, was very persuasive, speaking reasonably and moving emotionally.

Moreover, she already knew Song Wen fairly well. Song Wen hesitated.

She pondered for a moment and asked, ”What do you need the drone for?”

Granny Li glanced at Liang Yuan, asking with her eyes if it was okay to tell.

Liang Yuan nodded slightly, indicating it was fine.

Granny Li then sighed, ”Xiaosong, several of us are now staying temporarily at Yang Mei’s place. We’ve formed an alliance with Yang Mei and Xiaoliang in 3201 across the way.”

”You must have seen it over the past few days, right? Liu Erlong can no longer hold back and has come to confront us several times.”

”I’m just a woman and don’t know how to fight. Xiaoliang said the drone could help locate Liu Erlong and assist in our defense.”

”So, I thickened my face to negotiate this with you.”

”Liu Erlong is the scourge of building 76. If we don’t bring him down, we women are all in trouble.”

”In recent days, you must have seen or heard how badly those living alone have suffered, right?”

”Living alone is very unsafe.”

”If you trust Granny, you can join us. You know Old Ma, and you’re familiar with Yang Mei. It would be great if we could look out for each other in the future as neighbors.”

Granny Li’s words touched Song Wen’s heart.

These days, although she hadn’t gone out, she had seen many horrific and inhumane things through the peephole.

At night, she would often hear screams outside.

In building 75 across the way, there had been several incidents of people jumping off the building.

Once, she even heard someone banging on her door.

For the past six months, she had been living in constant fear, not daring to go outside even once.

If she could find allies, she certainly would.

But she was afraid. What if they were tricking her into opening the door?

She was deeply torn and did not know what to do.

Liang Yuan saw this and immediately spoke up, ”Ms. Song, are you worried we’re tricking you into opening the door?”

”I have a proposal that doesn’t require you to open the door and we can still make the trade.”

Hearing this, Song Wen immediately asked, ”Who are you? How will we trade?”

”I am Liang Yuan, the owner of 3201. We can trade from our balconies.”

”I will use a rope to send the food down to you. You can tie the drone equipment to the rope and send it back.”

”If you still don’t trust us, we can give you the food first. How about that?”

Liang Yuan’s sincerity moved Song Wen.

She turned to look at the windows she had sealed shut, considering the potential holes in this plan.

Finally, she said, ”Okay, Granny Li, Sister Yang Mei, I trust you.”

Granny Li immediately smiled and quickly said, ”Xiaosong, thank you. Don’t worry, Granny won’t deceive you. Granny is a party member.”

The older generation still had great respect for the status of being a party member.

Liang Yuan immediately said, ”Let’s trade in five minutes on the balcony. Let’s go.”

They all returned the way they came and entered 3201 together.

At this time, Ding Yan also came out, holding several wooden arrows.

The arrowheads were made of iron nails, welded and fixed in place.

The sharp nails were naturally more destructive than the hangers.

”Back already? Want to take a look?”

She handed over the arrows. Liang Yuan took them and asked, ”Have you tested them?”

”Yes.”

She picked up an arrow, placed it on a makeshift crossbow, and pulled the elastic string, setting the arrow.

With a snap of the trigger, the arrow shot out with a loud bang.

In the next second, it thudded into the cabinet door at the entrance, with more than half of the nail embedded.

The power was comparable to Liang Yuan’s nail gun.

Liang Yuan smiled, ”Great! Make more of these. If we run out of wood, just use the wooden boards from home.”

”Got it!” Ding Yan nodded enthusiastically, her eyes also showing a hint of excitement.

She was no longer the weak girl who could be bullied anymore.

On the balcony, Granny Li and Old Ma had already tied up a bag and were lowering it down with a rope.

After a while, they felt the rope move.
