Chapter 438 Stepping in
Zhang Ran listened quietly and said, "The town is not safe anymore. Let's continue working after dinner. We will take a bus back to the village tomorrow morning." Once the people are displaced and do not have enough food or warm clothes, the crime rate will rise sharply.
If they rushed into the store to rob and kill people, she could run away, but Daya would definitely die.
Daya thought that the insecurity she mentioned was the flood, and agreed: "You are right, we should continue working after dinner and return to the village early."
After dinner, we continued to work. Fortunately, there was not much left and we finished moving it in less than two hours.
Since all the clothes were piled up in Zhang Ran's room, even the bed was occupied, she had to squeeze in with Daya at night.
It was still early and I couldn't sleep, so I lit the light in the backyard and did my homework.
At this time, Zhang Ran was still thinking about doing his homework. Daya was amazed: "Aren't you tired? Why are you still doing your homework?"
"I'm used to going to bed late." Zhang Ran explained: "Don't worry about me, go to bed by yourself."
Daya was extremely tired. She ignored Zhang Ran and went upstairs to rest.
It was a dark and windy night when two sneaky figures appeared outside the store. From the shadows on the ground, one could tell that their owners were burly men.
A figure was looking around with an axe in his hand, obviously spreading the word, "How dare those damn bitches put us in jail!"
The man who was unlocking the door whispered, "Shut up, keep your voice down."
As time passed, Xu Fubao, who was doing something bad for the first time, felt that every second was like a year. He looked at the darkness around him, which seemed like a man-eating evil spirit. He became more and more nervous. He approached Xu Laoer and asked in a low voice: "Second Uncle, didn't you say you could open the lock? Why haven't you opened it yet?"
"It's almost done, why are you rushing?" Xu Laoer said impatiently. The only skill he had learned in these years was lock picking, and he had broken into houses many times without being discovered!
With a click, the lock finally opened.
Xu Laoer excitedly opened the door but found another door inside. He was stunned and said, "Damn it!"
Hearing Xu Laoer swearing, Xu Fubao, who was on the lookout, immediately leaned over to take a look and was immediately shocked. "Why are there two doors? Uncle, didn't you step on the wrong place? Is this really where they work?"
When Xu Laoer was scouting the place, he was afraid of alerting the enemy, so he did not go into the store. He just pretended to be a passerby, which would inevitably lead to mistakes.
"I'm not mistaken, this is the store." After Xu Laoer explained, he lowered his head and started fiddling with the second door lock.
But the two door locks were completely different, and the second lock was more difficult. Xu Laoer fiddled with it for a long time but couldn't open it, so he asked Xu Fubao for an axe, "I'll break it open."
Xu Fubao looked around like a thief and lowered his voice to remind them: "Uncle, the sound of breaking the lock is too loud. What if it wakes them up?"
"Now that you're woken up, it'll be more fun to play." Xu Laoer showed a lewd and perverted smile.
Xu Fubao had been ruined by Zhang Ran, and he couldn't do anything even if he wanted to. The most important thing was that the two of them didn't discuss this before they came. "No, Second Uncle, didn't we agree before we came that we would run away after getting the money?"
Xu Laoer's eyes instantly turned sinister and vicious, "Are you stupid? Now that you're here, you should have fun."
Xu Fubao: "...We have just been released. If they call the police, we will be finished if we go back in!"
Xu Laoer reached out and slapped his face, "I said you are stupid, you really have no brains, don't you think that even if we don't do anything to them, do you think they won't call the police?"
