Chapter 36 Security

...

" Zhou Yan.

"The porridge is on the nightstand. If it's not enough, there's more in the kitchen..."

She finished speaking and turned to leave immediately.

This girl's skill was just too socially mortifying for others!

How could she have such an overpowered ability?

All his dirty thoughts were exposed without a doubt. How was this any different from having his inner thoughts about a passing beauty broadcast live on the street?

Just after finishing his meal, Wang Zeyu called Zhou Yan on the walkie-talkie.

He said he had something to discuss with Zhou Yan.

After all, the people living next door were all "Sisters-in-law." It wasn't convenient for him to come over early in the morning, so he had to call his Big Brother over.

Zhou Yan carried his AR-15 to the next apartment. As soon as he entered, Wang Zeyu mysteriously pulled him into a corner of the kitchen.

His eyes were lecherous, and his gaze was suggestive.

"Big Brother... do you have *that*!?" Wang Zeyu asked sneakily.

"Which one?" Zhou Yan was stunned.

"You know... safety measures..." Wang Zeyu's face was filled with a lecherous smile.

Wang Zeyu understood that in this period, getting a woman pregnant carried too high a risk. Not to mention the severe decline in medical standards, the current environment wasn't safe either. Pregnancy made women immobile and inconvenient; it just wasn't appropriate!

"I... I can get an advance! I'll trade you fish for it later!" Wang Zeyu scratched his head, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"We're our own people, no need for that!"

Zhou Yan's hand, which had reached into his pocket, froze. Then he said to Wang Zeyu, "I only have medicine, not that..."

He had just remembered that the blind box had only yielded medicine, not condoms...

Wang Zeyu looked a bit disappointed but still waved his hand. "Forget it then, Big Brother. Medicine isn't very good for the body..."

Besides, there are always a few days when it's okay... It's not like it's impossible all the time...

Zhou Yan smiled and didn't say anything else. He could see the feelings he had for Zhang Dongxue...

Thinking of Zhang Dongxue and the other three girls, Zhou Yan quickly spoke up, "Later, have your partner find your Sister-in-law. I still have plenty of feminine products. I'll have your sister-in-law give some to your partner later!"

"Uh... which Sister-in-law should she find?" Wang Zeyu asked cautiously.

"Any of them will do!" Zhou Yan waved his hand dismissively.

"Thanks! Big Brother!" Wang Zeyu was genuinely a bit excited. After all, girls have a few uncomfortable days every month...

"We're our own people, don't mention it..." Zhou Yan was just about to ask—there wasn't even a place in this room for Wang Zeyu to use that thing...

Was he planning to go out and "get a room"?

"Knock, knock, knock!" A knocking sound rang out...

Wang Zeyu looked at Zhou Yan with an inquiring gaze. After all, the person knocking could be one of the four sisters-in-law from next door...

Zhou Yan frowned. Su Yanqiu and Yan Yue wouldn't easily go out on their own even if they had guns, unless he brought them along.

Zhang Yajing couldn't get a gun, so she wouldn't dare go out even more.

Bai Qi currently had no qualifications to go out...

This person knocking was nine times out of ten not one of their own!

"Didn't you chain the fire door shut? How did this person get in?" Zhou Yan asked Wang Zeyu, looking puzzled.

Eh? Could it be that the "Tank Driver" has come out?

"I lock the door at night to keep the merfolk out... but what if someone comes to trade food for fish during the day? I took the chain off first thing in the morning, and I'll lock it again at night!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yan didn't say much. It was possible they were really here to trade for supplies. He didn't make a sound, just gave Wang Zeyu a look.

Wang Zeyu understood instantly and hurriedly walked to the door, peering through the peephole.

He turned back and shook his head gently at Zhou Yan, signaling that it wasn't one of their own.

"A man, about thirty-seven or thirty-eight..."

"Don't keep looking at me. Some things you can handle on your own, you should handle on your own. Today, this person is yours to deal with."

After speaking, Zhou Yan stepped aside to make sure the person wouldn't see him the moment the door opened.

Wang Zeyu touched his somewhat faded "rainbow hair."

"What do you want!" Wang Zeyu shouted at the door.

"Brother! Brother! Is it convenient for you to come out and make a trade?"

"Can men be traded too? Huh?" Wang Zeyu was stunned for a moment, but then he saw through the peephole that the man was standing in the hallway, showing off the "supplies" he had on him to the peephole.

A few lighters, a small bag of unknown jerky, and a few bags of instant coffee...

"I'm a former resident of the fifth floor! I've been hiding on the upper floors. I was thinking of coming down to trade for some supplies with you guys!"

"Open the door!" Zhou Yan ordered, while simultaneously picking up the walkie-talkie to tell Su Yanqiu to bring Bai Qi over!

Zhou Yan was particularly curious about the situation of the residents on the upper floors. Usually, not a single one came down. Now, knowing full well that there were armed people downstairs, they actually had the guts to send someone down?

There was definitely something wrong with this...

Zhou Yan simply decided to call on his cheat! Calling Bai Qi over to take a look, and he would know everything!

Soon, the door opened.

Almost everyone was there. Zhang Yajing and Su Yanyue were there to watch the commotion.

Su Yanqiu carried a Type 92 pistol, with her arm around Bai Qi's shoulder as she walked to Zhou Yan's side.

This little girl was Zhou Yan's future big treasure! She had to be strictly protected...

Bai Qi, who had walked over, didn't say anything. After taking a few looks at the man in front of her, she kept staring at the open door, silent.

Wang Zeyu was quite sharp; he immediately lunged out, slammed the door shut, and then blocked the doorway with his whole body.

Seeing that the man's retreat was cut off, Bai Qi finally spoke slowly:

"The people on the upper floors already know that there are people downstairs with heavy firepower, so they sent him here. First, to scout our situation, and second, to see if it's possible to obtain food. If neither works, they'll try to trick us into going up one by one and then take control of us..."

Zhou Yan wasn't surprised by this at all. The fight with the merfolk couldn't be hidden from anyone, and he hadn't intended to hide it. He wished the whole apartment complex knew he had weapons! Because that represented deterrence!

But Zhou Yan had still underestimated the greed of these people. Knowing that you had weapons, they didn't just covet your supplies; they also coveted your weapons...

Zhou Yan rubbed his chin, sizing up the man in front of him. This guy didn't seem to be having a good time up there, having been used as a pawn to test the waters. Because probing someone with a gun was a very dangerous thing, yet even so, he still came down...

Behind him, Bai Qi stared at him a few more times, then her expression changed, and her face instantly turned as pale as paper. She bent over, covered her mouth, and kept retching.

Su Yanqiu was extremely nervous and hurriedly helped Bai Qi to the bathroom.

In the bathroom, while gently patting Bai Qi on the back, she asked softly, "Were you involved last night too? You didn't let me down, developing so quickly... But that's not right either... It can't be that you're already pregnant this fast!"

Bai Qi couldn't bother to explain; she just kept vomiting. She had vomited up all the vegetable porridge she'd eaten in the morning, but she still kept retching while holding onto the toilet...

"They! They! They eat people!"
