Chapter 45: Deciding to Launch an Attack
This situation prompted many residents to band together.
Their solution was not to live separately but to stay together.
They used heavy objects to block the doors, preventing Chen Zhenghao and his men from breaking in.
As for getting water, they did so through the windows.
Some floors had balconies that caught snowfall.
Fang Yuqing and her group moved into Wang Min\'s apartment on the 18th floor.
Wang Min was Zhou Peng\'s cousin. She ran a cosmetics business in Tianhai City and was an independent, successful woman.
Therefore, she had some assets, and her home was a three-bedroom, two-living room apartment, the same layout as Zhang Yi\'s.The others were her colleagues and close friends.
In an apocalypse, even if people wanted to group up, they only dared to invite those they trusted.
Fang Yuqing and Lin Cainin were allowed in because Zhou Peng vouched for them.
As a token of their loyalty, they shared the situation at Zhang Yi\'s apartment.
At this moment, everyone sat in the living room, wrapped in thick down jackets, scarves around their necks, trying to seal every part of their bodies.
Since Zhang Yi refused their offer to live together, everyone was in a bad mood.
Wang Min looked at Fang Yuqing and Lin Cainin, saying coldly, "I let you stay here because of my cousin, and you promised to convince Zhang Yi to let us move into his place."
"But now Zhang Yi refuses. What do you propose we do?"
Zhou Peng was a simp, but Wang Min was sharp and could tell these two women were difficult.
If they hadn’t mentioned Zhang Yi, Wang Min would never have let them join.
Fang Yuqing hurriedly said, "Sister Wang, listen to me. Zhang Yi\'s supplies are abundant, and he even has a fireplace!"
"If we can move into his apartment, life will be much easier."
After being repeatedly refused by Zhang Yi, Fang Yuqing and Lin Cainin gave up hope of his help.
So, they sold out Zhang Yi’s situation.
They showed the photos and videos Zhang Yi had sent them.
Lin Cainin added, "Yes, you’ve seen the videos. You know how comfortable Zhang Yi’s apartment is now."
"If we work together to move into his place, not only can we resist Chen Zhenghao, but we can also live comfortably."
Hearing this, Wang Min and the others couldn’t help but take out their phones to watch the videos again.
The footage of Zhang Yi’s home, warm and inviting, made their eyes light up with envy.
Wang Min frowned, "But he made it clear he doesn’t want us to move in."
At this moment, Sun Zhichao, a bespectacled man, adjusted his glasses and spoke in a low voice, "He’s too selfish, ignoring everyone else\'s survival."
"We don’t need to be polite to such a person. I suggest we use special methods!"
Everyone understood what Sun Zhichao meant—breaking into Zhang Yi\'s home and forcing him to give up his apartment!
His friend, Lu Tao, loudly supported him, "I think it’s a good idea! He’s selfish and only cares about himself. Why should he live in such a good apartment?"
Wang Min frowned slightly, "But according to Zhou Peng, their security door is very sturdy. We’re not like Chen Zhenghao and his men; we’re not good at this."
Zhou Peng added, "Yes, and Zhang Yi is particularly nasty. Last time we knocked on his door, he poured urine on us from above!"
Mentioning that incident made Fang Yuqing and Lin Cainin nauseous, almost vomiting.
Even now, they still had the smell left by Zhang Yi on their hair and skin.
If not for their stuffy noses from the cold, the smell might have driven them away.
Sun Zhichao adjusted his glasses and sneered, "It’s easy. We just need to cover ourselves well, wear masks, and use umbrellas. Then we won’t be affected by his tricks."
"As for breaking in, hehe!"
He looked at Lu Tao.
Lu Tao coughed and said, "I used to work for a locksmith company. I’m very familiar with these things. I can unlock most of the common locks on the market!"
Hearing this, Fang Yuqing and the others almost jumped for joy.
"Great! Once we open their security door, with so many of us, let’s see how Zhang Yi resists!"
Fang Yuqing cursed through gritted teeth.
She had begged Zhang Yi, but he refused to let her in, humiliating her in various ways, making her hate Zhang Yi to the core!
"When we get in, I’ll shove his head into the toilet and make him eat!"
Zhou Peng, the sycophant, eagerly added, "I’ll make sure to do the honors!"
Zhou Peng\'s crudeness disgusted Fang Yuqing, but she needed him now, so she smiled, "Alright, eat more beans and onions."
The group was cheerful and harmonious.
They believed that with so many of them, Zhang Yi wouldn’t be able to resist.
They found umbrellas and wrapped themselves tightly, carrying tools to break in, and headed to Zhang Yi’s place.
Zhang Yi had installed an alarm system that would alert him to any movement on his floor.
So, he knew immediately when they climbed up the stairs.
He saw the group during the surveillance, but since they were covered up, he thought it was Chen Zhenghao’s group.
"Perfect timing. I didn’t finish you last time, so this time you’ll learn another lesson."
Zhang Yi sneered.
But he still didn’t plan to kill Chen Zhenghao yet.
If Chen Zhenghao died, who would clean up these scumbag neighbors?
That would be no fun.
The group was well-wrapped and, once near Zhang Yi’s place, opened several umbrellas.
This way, Zhang Yi couldn’t use water or stink bombs to drive them away quickly.
All this was information provided by Fang Yuqing.
She naively thought that no matter how many defenses Zhang Yi had, supplies in one apartment would eventually run out.
Using water and stink bombs would be Zhang Yi’s last resort.
