Chapter 118: Chapter 118: Encountering a Frozen Person
"Mianmian..."
She hurried over, and Ye Mianmian was covering her mouth, staring down below with a frightened face.
It was a pit, used for repairing vehicles, where vehicles were placed above and the space below was left open for workers to operate.
Song Yi and Zhang Kaiyang, upon hearing the noise, also rushed over.
"What happened?"
"Is there, someone?"
She pointed below. There was indeed someone, curled up inside, covered with a piece of clothing.
Song Yi immediately jumped down, having seen too many things before, he knew instantly what had happened, his face turned pale.
However, he still checked thoroughly.
"The person has no breath left, probably died from the cold."
Not only that, the body had already stiffened.
Zhang Kaiyang and Jhiang Yuan were above, they pulled him up.
"Let’s get back to work!"
After saying that, Song Yi went back to work on the car, Zhang Kaiyang joined him.
Ye Mianmian suddenly saw a person, still in the same state, and was a bit shocked.
"Sister Yuan, why do I feel a chill? It doesn’t seem right for us to take things like this."
"What’s wrong with it? He won’t be needing them anyway, we’ll just make sure to close the door properly later."
Even though she said that, she also felt it was strange.
In no time at all, they moved all the useful items out; Jhiang Yuan was also unwilling to stay long.
Being in the same room with a dead person was indeed eerie.
The rest of the stores showed no abnormalities; that little incident passed quickly.
The car had no issues; Song Yi replaced the antifreeze with one of a lower strength.
The group discussed, placing the liquefied gas canisters into the vehicle, arranging them in a row, with wooden planks on top.
Another row and they could fit even more.
However, it would still require two trips to finish.
"Let’s take these items back first. When we reach the icy areas, we can use these door planks for transport."
Song Yi also found many long pieces of wood, and by nailing some nails underneath, he quickly fashioned simple ice cones.
They would be able to slide on the ice when the time came.
"I’m also worried about another thing now, we’re taking these liquefied gas canisters back, but there’s no space at home to store them!"
Ah, I’d actually forgotten about that!
There was also no space left at Jhiang Yuan’s house, and these were heavy items. It would be easier if they could be placed in a storage space.
"Yeah, what are we going to do about that? There are people living on the ninth and eleventh floors, otherwise we could have used those."
Song Yi also furrowed his brows; if there was nowhere to put them, then taking them back would be futile.
"What do we do now?"
Indeed, this problem was really difficult.
"How about this, we decide based on our own needs and the specific situations at our homes how much each of us will take, and try to take it all back in one go.
The rest, just leave them here!"
What Song Yi said addressed the most pressing issues, but it was a pity to give up on the materials they had found with such difficulty.
"I agree, that’s all we can do for now. There’s not much space left in my house either, so I’ll take fifteen."
Jhiang Yuan was the first to make a decision; sometimes, to give up is to gain.
"I’ll keep ten, and you two?"
Ye Mianmian and Zhang Kaiyang glanced at each other, and each also decided to take ten.
A total of forty-five canisters, they could all be hauled in one trip without needing a second.
"Alright, then let’s quickly load them up."
The cargo box of the vehicle could fit two people up front, and the remaining two could sit in the back with the liquefied gas canisters.
After loading the vehicle, it was already 5:30 PM, and by this time, it had already become dark.
The group didn’t dare delay as the temperature had dropped suddenly, suggesting that it could indeed be deadly.
Song Yi drove, having Zhang Kaiyang sit in the passenger seat since he was more familiar with the area.
Additionally, two men seem like they might be stronger in a fight.
If they were to encounter someone with malicious intent, at least that person would think twice.
More so than if it were the two of us sitting there.
Everything was ready, and they were about to drive the car to the mouth of the alley when Jhiang Yuan suddenly remembered something.
"Wait a minute, just wait a minute!"
The person ahead heard and quickly stopped the car, Zhang Kaiyang got out and opened the back door.
"Sister Yuan, what’s wrong?"
"I forgot my military shovel, let me go grab it."
With that, she ran out.
"Should I come with you?"
"No need, I’ll be right back."
Jhiang Yuan hurried to the liquefied gas station.
Jokingly, with so many cylinders, it would be a shame to just throw them away.
There was no time to explain much, she hurriedly started collecting them.
In fact, she had already put the military shovel in the space earlier and to come down this trip took only three minutes.
She ran back and forth, so there wasn’t much delay.
When she got to the door, she also took the electric tricycle inside.
If you’re going to act, you might as well do it thoroughly, she took out the military shovel from the space and walked out.
"Oh my God, that scared me to death!"
She had just pulled down the shutter door and, turning around, suddenly saw Song Yi’s face.
She was really startled.
This man had been suspicious of her before, and if he saw what was inside now, it would be dangerous.
Hundreds of liquefied gas cylinders had disappeared into thin air, and she couldn’t explain it even with a hundred mouths.
What to do, what to do, she was terribly anxious.
"Oh gosh, hurry, Song Yi, I feel so cold right now, my hands are shivering."
Upon hearing this, Song Yi was indeed touched, and quickly took her hand to warm it.
It was indeed very cold, especially since she had to handle the gas cylinders directly, and gloves would not suffice.
The cylinders were also icy, making her hands feel almost frozen stiff.
As soon as Song Yi touched Jhiang Yuan’s hands, his expression changed immediately, and he began rubbing her hands to warm them.
It was no joking matter in this cold weather; frostbitten hands would be very painful.
Jhiang Yuan, to prove herself, was also very satisfied at that moment.
However, she immediately realized it was inappropriate and hurriedly pulled her hands away.
"Let’s get going, it’s probably going to get even colder in a bit."
"Okay!"
Song Yi said, handing his heavy cotton gloves to Jhiang Yuan.
"No need, I have some."
Saying so, she put on her own gloves.
Her gloves were very warm, but Song Yi still stuffed his gloves in her hand.
Ugh, now this was awkward.
The two returned quickly to the car, where Ye Mianmian and Zhang Kaiyang hurried over as well.
Seeing the military shovel in her hand, they also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Here, you need to drive."
Gloves, she couldn’t accept them, she wasn’t without her own.
Having two pairs made no sense.
She and Ye Mianmian quickly got into the car, this needed someone outside to take care of it.
Jhiang Yuan thought it was too dark, so she took out the large night lamp, and at the back of the box truck, there was a small square vent that was used for ventilation.
Jhiang Yuan opened it so she could see outside.
It wasn’t for anything else, just to see if there were people at the supermarket at night or not.
