“There are no electric fences in the neighboring villas. We can go and rob them!”
The refugees realized that the other villas were more vulnerable. Their eyes lit up as they pointed at the Shu family’s villas and shouted, “Let’s go to those over there!”
Qiu Tong saw that there were only a few injured refugees resting on the ground outside. Most of the other refugees were already attacking and seizing the food stores from the other villas.
She could not help frowning and sighing. “The worst has indeed happened.”
Qiu Tong muttered, “I’m afraid our electric fence won’t be able to hold for long. After they rob all the food from the other villas, they will definitely return…”
She watched as the refugees used metal rods and stones to smash the Shu family’s door. She could not help commenting. “They deserve it.”
Meanwhile, the Shu family’s villa was breached by the refugees in just a few minutes. They barged in like bandits and plundered the food stores.
Shu Xian and Shu Yuanwei were originally drunk, but they were so frightened that they instantly sobered up. They squatted on the ground, clutching their heads and trembling.
Lin Shan screamed and hid on the sofa. She covered her body with a pillow and flailed around shouting, “Don’t come over! I’m calling the police!”
When the leader of the refugees heard this, his expression turned gloomy and he looked very unhappy.
Shu Xian and Shu Yuanwei secretly cursed Lin Shan for being too stupid. They hurriedly raised their hands and said, “As you can see, we don’t have much food at home. There’s not enough for you to eat. Even if you turn the villa upside down, this is all there is!”
“We don’t dare to lie to you. But I know who has more food!”
Shu Yuanwei recalled the grains that Qiu Tong had hoarded. He tried to sell her out to the refugee leader in exchange for his trust.
“She just bought several carts of food a few days ago. She must have stored them at home. They’re not far away. I can bring you there!”
Shu Xian saw the expressions of the refugees relax a little. He hurriedly nodded and said, “Yes, yes! Even if you keep wasting time here, you won’t get anything.”
The leader of the refugees frowned. After some thought, he arranged for a few of his subordinates to escort Shu Yuanwei and let him lead the way.
The group of refugees returned to the entrance of the Qiu family villa in a swaggering manner. Shu Yuanwei pointed at the electric fence and said excitedly and ingratiatingly, “It’s this one! Just go in and rob them. You’ll definitely be able to get a lot of things…”
Bang! Smack!
As soon as Shu Yuanwei finished speaking, the leader of the refugees grabbed his head and swung his fist at his abdomen, causing him to spit out blood.
Several beat Shu Yuanwei with sticks until he could not get up. He wretchedly begged for mercy. “Stop beating me, stop beating me!”
“Pui! Are you trying to trick us?”
“This villa is clearly fortified. Didn’t you see our fallen brothers? They were all electrocuted just now!”
The leader of the refugees spoke in a hoarse voice. Shu Yuanwei did not expect things to turn out this way. He felt an unbearable pain in his abdomen and quickly tugged at the refugee’s pants. In a weak voice, he said, “I have a solution! I can help you break in and bring out the food.”
“Stop. Listen to what he has to say…”
The leader of the refugees raised his hand. Shu Yuanwei staggered and got up. He pointed at a small house outside the villa area and coughed. “That’s the villa district’s main power supply room. As long as we cut off the power from the villa area, the electric fence won’t work.”
“Without the electric fence, it will be very easy for you to break in.”
“There’s only one woman and a few children in that villa. They are no match for you.”
Shu Yuanwei pleaded. The leader of the refugees pondered for a while and nodded. “Okay..”
