Tetanus (1)

The few of them looked at each other silently. This was indeed their original purpose of coming here.

Ma Chaowen's brows were tightly knitted. On one hand, he hated Ye Xingchen, but on the other hand, he was envious, afraid, and conflicted.

He hated Ye Xingchen for causing his good brother to lose his life, and he envied Ye Xingchen for having such a well-equipped safe house. He could still enjoy red wine and steak in light clothes when everyone was hungry and cold.

The fear and dilemma were the fear of being pierced by Ye Xingchen's words. However, he really did want to be the owner of this safe house.

But now, he had to think of a way to open the door and enter the safe house.

Ma Chaowen took a deep breath and said in a gentle voice, "Ye Xingchen, we are neighbors after all. Let me tell you, hurry up and open the door for us to go in. I can temporarily not pursue the matter of you killing my brother."

Chen Rou'er also said softly, "That's right, Brother Xingchen. Actually, no one has any ill intentions. No one will hurt you. Everyone just wants to live with you. There's strength in numbers. We'll face the disaster together, but why don't you understand our good intentions?"

Even Chu Yao followed closely, "Yes, yes! We'll let you stay in the master bedroom. Look at how considerate we are. Even if it's supplies, we'll let you use them first. We'll split them after you use up all you need, alright?"

At that moment, they were very excited. After all, just a wall away was heaven. They had long dreamed of this house the moment they saw the video!

However, Ye Xingchen only found them funny.

"Are you guys alright? Are your brains frozen or did you forget to bring them? So the consequences are so serious that I can't bear it?! And I don't know what's good for me and don't understand your good intentions?! Look, you even have the magnanimity to let me stay in the master bedroom?!"

"Please, if you're sick, go to the hospital and queue up, okay? This house was originally mine, but you guys came to assign it to me like the host? Have you forgotten how to get to Gotham City after being away from home for so long?"

"If you have any other abilities, hurry up and use them. I'm in a hurry. I really want to see if you can break in!"

As he said this, Ye Xingchen's hands were not idle either.

After loading the bullets, Ye Xingchen took out the mini crossbow and composite bow from the space. Of course, he also took out a few arrows that were not in good condition and were even a little rusty and moldy.

Bullets were too precious and he could not bear to use them. He took out the pistol just to boost his courage.

Although bows and arrows were also very precious, Ye Xingchen had bought a lot of them when he bought weapons. When he took them, he did not see these rusted and moldy ones clearly, so he had stored them in the space as trash.

Ye Xingchen suddenly thought of something and felt pleasantly surprised. He thought about how his carelessness from before had such a wonderful effect.

Through the surveillance equipment on each floor, he could clearly see and even vaguely hear their actions and whispers.

"What should we do? Now that Li Tao is dead, we don't know how to open the lock. Why don't we retreat now? I'll think of a better way to come back when I get back."

Ma Chaowen glanced over and whispered, "Retreat? We've already come here. How can we go back empty-handed?"

Sun Min began to analyze. "This Ye Xingchen is not so simple. Look at him now. He seems to have known that the snow would come. Otherwise, he wouldn't have made such ample preparations."

That was right. Everyone was starting to react now.

In this extremely cold weather, every household was starving and freezing. Even those who had stocked up in their homes were having a hard time.

But this Ye Xingchen, not only did he eat well and wore warm clothes, he even enjoyed a life that others could not enjoy on a normal day.

Even when there was a lack of electricity, and each person could only use electricity for two hours, he could power up the security door?!

It was obvious that Ye Xingchen's security door was prepared for such a situation.

Zhang Peng pursed his lips and became even more jealous. "If that's the case, then this Ye Xingchen deserves to die even more!"

"He clearly knew that there would be this heavy snow, but he only cared about himself and did not inform us at all! He's really selfish and deserve to die!"

He spat on the ground.

Zhang Peng was already at odds with Ye Xingchen. At this moment, he hated Ye Xingchen even more and wished to kill him instead.

Sun Min looked up at Zhang Peng without saying a word and did not comment.

If it were any of them, if they had known about this kind of news in advance, they would have given priority to their family and friends. Why would they care about the life and death of a stranger?

"The problem now is, what should we do with our family? We can't pry open the door now. Why don't we try breaking it down directly?"

As Sun Min spoke, she raised her head and looked at Zhang Peng, Ma Chaowen, and Liang Zhichao, who was about to retreat.

The three of them were the few men left in the team. If they wanted to forcefully break through the door, the three of them would be the main force.

They lowered their heads and muttered for a while.

Ye Xingchen looked at the surveillance screen and saw that their group actually turned around and left.

Feeling confused, Ye Xingchen wondered why they went back so quickly. He lay down again and covered himself with the blanket, wanting to continue his beautiful dream.

However, after a while, Ye Xingchen almost fell asleep when the alarm sounded again.

The few people in the image made a comeback. This time, they were half-carrying and half-dragging a big and thick piece of wood.

From the looks of it, it must have been removed from someone's bed.

A few women were holding umbrellas beside the three of them, wondering what Ye Xingchen was going to use to drench them.

The three men shouted in unison and raised the wooden stick together to slam into the door!

The sound was so loud that through the camera, Ye Xingchen could feel that the house was about to tremble from their collision, even though it was just an illusion.

The three of them worked together to knock on the door with all their might. Finally, a small dot of paint fell off the door.

Five minutes passed, but the door still did not budge. There was no sign of it being pushed open at all. The group of them was completely dumbfounded.

At this time, Ye Xingchen slowly used the communication device. "Do you have any more moves? If not, it's my turn!"

Ye Xingchen took the weapon he had just taken out and leisurely opened the door to the balcony on the third floor. This time, he learned to be smart. He put on a down jacket and cotton coat in advance and quietly opened a small space reserved by the window that could be opened independently.

A smile crept onto his face as he adjusted his aiming angle.

"Whoosh!"

Arrow after arrow, screams could be heard from downstairs. The few of them scattered in all directions.

"Sigh, what a pity. He ran too fast."
