Seeing that Huang Qian and Jia Xiang were not joking with him, Shi Xuan looked at Long Yu and saw that he was deep in thought.
Long Yu was silent for a moment and said, "I remember there was a mountain nearby. Let's go there to find more firewood before going back."
Since they only scraped together half a boat of supplies, they had to look elsewhere for more supplies.
While the four of them made their way to the mountain, Yao Ran was awakened by gunshots outside. Since the power outage, the apartment's soundproofing has deteriorated.
Yao Ran didn't know what technology the developers used when installing sound insulation in the apartment, but it did not seem to be working anymore. The developers must not have expected that this high-end residential area would have a power outage for a very long time.
Bang!
Before Yao Ran opened her eyes, another gunshot rang out in the silent night. She sat up and rubbed her forehead for a moment until the headache disappeared. After putting on her coat, she took the long sword and went to open the door.
Seeing her coming out, Deng Qiqi went to greet her, "Elder Sister Yao Ran."
Yao Ran saw her hiding by the window at the end of the corridor while Huang Zhihui was holding a gun and squatted beside the metal doors at the stairs.
She frowned slightly and asked, "What happened?"
Huang Zhihui turned to look at her and said, "We are surrounded."
Yao Ran approached her and leaned closer to the metal door. She heard some faint sounds coming from the other side of the metal doors.
She lowered her voice, looked at Huang Zhihui, and asked, "Do you know how many people came tonight?"
Huang Zhihui shook her head. "We don't know. In addition to these people surrounding the stairs, there are people from other buildings who are sniping at us."
Hearing this, Yao Ran's eyes turned cold. "The gunfire just now... was it from a sniper?"
Huang Zhihui nodded and said solemnly, "Yes. It was dark outside, and we couldn't determine the sniper's location or how many of them."
Yao Ran nodded, "I understand. You stay here for now."
After saying that, she returned to her apartment and took out three pairs of night vision goggles and night vision binoculars. She also took out a sniper rifle from her space.
After assembling the sniper rifle, Yao Ran put on a bulletproof vest and changed her pajamas. After she was done, she left the apartment with her sniper rifle and a long sword on her back.
She gave Deng Qiqi the night vision goggles and said, "Qiqi, go guard the metal door with Zhihui."
