Chapter 97: 97. Return (2)

Good guy.

They were trying to rob them but instead they themselves were robbed.

If these people knew what would happen, it was estimated that they would never try to provoke Mark and Lucy given 100 times the courage.

After all, courage didn’t represent ability.

"Even if we don’t take it, there will be other people who will take it." Mark moved to the nearest boat. "The bullet also hit the boat, so this boat will not last long."

"Ah..." Lucy had a red face.

It seemed that she also missed when she was shooting just now.

After all, who would stay in place when they heard the sound of shooting? It was even a shooting that they experienced firsthand.

If they didn’t have any weapon or anything that could be used to fight back, the first reaction would be to take cover.

But where can they take cover?

This place is limited.

Mark and Lucy both crouched down when they started shooting, but their speed was very fast, much faster than this group of people.

"Come on."

"Is it really the right thing to kill them all?" Lucy asked as she watched Mark pulled the boat near them.

"If we don’t, they will kill us."

"How did you know?"

"There are several corpses not far from their boat." Mark pointed to one side. "The water current is dragging them away, but some got stuck there. It can be inferred that even if we follow their order, they might still kill us in the end. I don’t want to take risk, so I take the first action."

Lucy was silent.

Looking at the direction where Mark pointed at, Lucy could definitely see the corpse that was half floating on the surface of the water.

When a person died, they would first float on the water.

But after some time when all the gas was released, they will fall into the water and never resurfaced anymore due to the chemical reaction inside one’s body.

It was something that Lucy learned in her school.

The biology knowledge was much more complete than ordinary school because they would be facing a lot of deaths in the future. This kind of information is very important if they had to search for bodies and determine their time of death.

Of course, unless they wanted to enter the related field, what they learned was only the basic that could help.

The most specific course and knowledge will only be taught when they entered university in the future.

"I see."

"They choose this path, so they should have expected that they might be retaliated. No one will be willing to bow down to others so easily," Mark said quietly.

Lucy thought about it and nodded.

"Let’s start."

"Um." Lucy nodded and pulled the other boat. She pushed the dead person to the water and saw that the bag was filled with several bags of grains and flour. Her eyes flashed in surprise.

There were actually a lot of things here.

And they were the one who obtained it.

It felt cheap this way.

But at the same time, Mark and Lucy felt both joy and distress. They knew very well that it wouldn’t be easy for them to bring these all to the 16th floor later.

...

The rest of the journey was smooth.

When Anna and Dylan came down, the apartment still retained that deserted look. It was clear that the people who were living here didn’t dare to come out because of various reasons.

Only some of them who were confident with their strength and had a way to go will choose to come out.

Otherwise, who would want to be dragged into another mess?

They already have enough from the morning problem.

"Lucy! Mark!" Anna waved her hand happily when she saw the boat returned. "You two sure take your time. Are you alright?"

"Don’t worry, we’re fine." Lucy smiled and waved back.

"Row the boat," Mark reminded in a low voice.

"I know." Lucy pouted and continued to row forward.

Dylan was also looking at the two of them and saw that they were fine. At the very least, there was no visible injuries on their bodies.

"Did something happen in the middle?"

"Some people tried to ask for toll," Mark replied. "They have been settled but it’s estimated that more people might use this method in the future."

The benefit obtained from robbing people were not small at all. It was estimated that there will be more people who wanted to try using this method to earn more food and other supplies.

After all, they didn’t need to travel far and only guarded one place and they could already obtain the benefit.

It was much faster than working on their own.

The method was indeed illegal.

But in the current situation where electricity was not working and they could only travel by boat, the temptation was also very big.

Some people will definitely use this method.

As for whether they succeed or not in the end, that was another matter.

"It’s troublesome." Dylan frowned. If more people were to guard some areas, it was estimated that he would also find it difficult to travel and so on. Hey, it was really annoying.

"Indeed."

"Help us carry everything first. There are so many things here." Lucy picked the few bags and stacked them on her back after she stepped on the stairs. Mark helped to park the boat and stabilize it temporarily.

"Wait, how did you carry so many things?" Anna was stunned when she saw the stack of items in front of her. To be honest, she was really tempted to just use her space abilities.

If not because she didn’t want to reveal this extraordinary ability, she would have long showed it to them. But since she couldn’t, then it meant they could only carry these bags one by one.

How the hell are they supposed to carry so many things?

They only have two arms!
