Chapter 323 Borrowing a Fire

New Year's Day.

Li Yu rubbed his dizzy head early in the morning. He and Cannon drank a lot of wine last night. Although they were not broken in the end, they were still half drunk.

After waking up, he walked to the gate first. This was his long-standing habit. Even if he was not on duty, he would go to the gate to take a look every time after exercising.

After leaving the door, the cold air froze, and Li Yu's spirit was shaken, and he became much more awake.

Creak, creak, creak~

Li Yu stepped on the snow and walked towards the gate.

After a while, they arrived at the gate of the base, and Li Yu pushed open the door of the duty room.

When I saw my second uncle sitting in the duty room feeling a little sleepy, I happened to yawn.

"Happy New Year to my second uncle." Li Yu said to his second uncle with a smile on his face.

"Xiaoyu, happy New Year." The second uncle said as he rubbed his eyes.

"Thank you for your hard work last night." Li Yu said with some embarrassment. During many gatherings and the like, his second uncle was always on duty, although during the period his second uncle also replaced him and participated for a while.

But last night on New Year's Eve, my second uncle was also on duty at the gate.

Li Yu originally arranged a duty schedule, and he came at several times yesterday, but he couldn't convince his second uncle.

"What's the point? It's not always the same. Besides, I came over last night to participate. Okay, now that you're here, I'll go back and take a nap," said the second uncle.

He picked up his coat and put it on himself, then walked out of the duty room.

Just as the second uncle left, the duty room was pushed open again and two people walked in.

She is the second daughter of Li Haoran and Lai Dongsheng. They are the two working the day shift at the gate today.

"Brother. Happy New Year~"

"Brother, happy new year~"

Li Haoran was a little surprised to see Li Yu, but he quickly said hello, and Lai Dongsheng's second daughter standing next to him also called her eldest brother.

Li Yu nodded and said Happy New Year.

Then he walked out of the duty room.

He planned to walk around the wall as if it were a walk. With his walking speed, it would only take less than 10 minutes to complete the circle.

While walking on the fence, I met some other people from the base and wished them a happy New Year.

After walking around, Li Yu returned to the residential area to have breakfast.

There is always something different in the new year.

Chinese people more or less have such expectations, hoping that the future will be better and that everything will be fine.

New Year's Day.

There is more or less the atmosphere of the New Year in the base, with the newly posted couplets and the little red lanterns hanging up.

And every person I met and the new clothes I wore.

Happy New Year. Li Yu stood on the roof of the villa and murmured.

........

Time passed by, and the temperature began to rise slowly. Although the speed was very slow, at least it was no longer the terrifying temperature of forty or fifty degrees below zero.

It's now at least minus 30 degrees Celsius, especially when people are outdoors.

The weather is getting warmer, like the darkness before dawn.

Everyone is already feeling a little uncomfortable under this severe cold weather, unable to go out.

But compared to the vast majority of survivors in other parts of the world, the people in Da Zhangshu Base are lucky.

At least they don't have to worry about food now, and they don't have to be injured or killed by the cold weather.

It was getting late, and Li Yu returned to the room.

........

Safe City.

In the cold weather, the gate personnel have retreated, put up the guardrail outside the gate, and locked the iron lock on the gate.

At this time, the safe city has become no longer so safe.

Whenever late at night, Mr. Wang can always hear screams, quarrels, and shrill begging for mercy around him.

Mr. Wang saw through the window that those

A person from the patrol team will also deal with it at the beginning to ensure people's safety.

But there are more and more such things, and as everyone consumes more and more supplies, many people are struggling on the edge of starvation.

When a person's life and death are at stake, especially when his life hangs by a thread, morality, shame, and face are no longer important. Everything is dead, so it is better to fight hard and maybe survive for two more days.

Mr. Wang hid in his room and did not dare to go out.

He even blocked the door with some of the only furniture in his home to prevent anyone from staring at him.

He also pushed the dusty refrigerator to the door and blocked it.

However, what he didn't know was that the couple downstairs had already set their sights on him.

When Mr. Wang just moved in, the skinny man downstairs watched him move things up.

Mr. Wang had to carry the things more than a dozen times before he stopped. In these days, since the weather started to get cold, Mr. Wang has not left the door.

Only occasionally, they could hear the brief sound of windows opening upstairs.

On this day, Mr. Wang, who was lying on the bed, suddenly heard a knock on the door.

Bang bang bang~

Mr. Wang mistakenly believed that he was hearing hallucinations. He didn't know anyone in this safe city, and it was unlikely that anyone would find him.

"Hello, I am the neighbor downstairs. We have no fire. I would like to borrow a lighter. It's okay if you don't have a lighter. Just borrow a lighter." As if he was afraid that Mr. Wang would misunderstand, the man said quickly.

Listening to the voice, it was a woman's. Her voice was soft and weak, and it didn't sound offensive at all.

When Mr. Wang heard this woman's voice, he thought it was indeed the voice of the woman downstairs, but all he heard before were begging for mercy or screaming.

Mr. Wang moved his body slightly.

The weather was extremely cold, and he didn't want to waste energy or heat on anything.

Can't get up.

Bang bang bang~

The person knocking at the door was knocking very stubbornly.

Mr. Wang was unmoved, turned around and continued to sleep.

The knocking on the door continued for a few more minutes, but without any reply, it seemed to have given up.

Mr. Wang pricked up his ears and listened. There was indeed no sound, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Now all the windows and security windows in the house and the doors are closed tightly.

Last night, the building opposite was noisy for a long time, so he didn't get much sleep last night, so he was just in time to catch up on his sleep.

Just when Mr. Wang was about to fall asleep.

There was a loud bang, which frightened Mr. Wang.

This voice.

It's at the gate.

Boom!

There was another loud noise.

There is no doubt that it is the main door.

The two hanging men are forcefully breaking open his door.

"Do you really think I'm easy to bully?" Mr. Wang became angry.

He has not gone out to cause trouble these days, and has not had any interactions with this neighbor, but this does not mean that Mr. Wang is a person who is afraid of trouble.

Mr. Wang got up from the bed immediately, as always he was cautious every time he got up, for fear that the heater inside the quilt would escape.

Nothing matters at this point.

After getting up, quickly put on your coat and then put on your shoes.

At the same time, the banging at the door continued.

Mr. Wang became more and more angry. After putting on his clothes, he glanced to the right.

Then he took out a pistol from under the pillow and checked the bullets.

OK.
