Rebirth: I Am Super Rich in Apocalypse
Chapter 234: Gathering Enemy Intelligence

Chapter 234: Chapter 234: Gathering Enemy Intelligence

Although she didn’t want to admit it, what Fan Qing said was very likely.

Jhiang Yuan also didn’t quite understand, in the current situation, was there really still some surveillance around them?

But before the apocalypse, who could have imagined the current situation?

Besides, without saying anything else.

The weather fluctuating back and forth, while the talk of apocalypse was merely trending online, many didn’t agree with it.

This wasn’t the same concept as zombies running rampant.

Like a frog being slowly boiled alive, many people just couldn’t grasp it.

How could it have gradually gotten to this state step by step?

But once you actually realized it, reality had already become severe.

Then there was no choice but to forcibly accept it.

"Not to scare anyone, I also don’t know why, as we talked, it just came to this point.

Let’s not think too much about it, maybe we are just too tense.

Alright, let’s go down."

"Go down for what?"

Fan Qing didn’t understand, Song Yi had asked everyone to wait up there when he left.

If they also went down, would it disrupt the plan?

"Let’s go down and see the situation, there’s nothing to worry about, just relax and don’t talk to them."

Ye Mianmian understood that Jhiang Yuan didn’t want to sit idle, but Fan Qing was worried about the situation below.

"Sister Yuan is right, let’s go down and see what exactly is going on."

Some concepts, once they take root in people’s hearts, tend to keep them constantly worried.

Jhiang Yuan had her own thoughts, that being watched was unlikely.

But some things had to be cautiously guarded against anyway.

The world had changed, not just the weather and people’s hearts, but other things as well.

Like the gray snow a few days ago, it was truly baffling.

Among them, to think someone harbored ill intentions wasn’t necessarily false.

But now, both internally and externally besieged, everyone was suspicious.

She couldn’t be certain, thus she couldn’t afford to startle the metaphorical snake in the grass.

From that moment on, she had to be wary of everyone around her.

After thoroughly bundling up, they went down carrying buckets and pot shovels and such.

In fact, there was still plenty of ice in the house.

This was just a pretext, the act had to be played in full.

Besides, they didn’t bring a shovel, to avoid attracting attention.

In general city homes, few people owned this tool.

Especially in apartment buildings, where there was no land at home to necessitate one.

Yet, for clearing snow and fetching ice, it could not be more suitable.

Inevitably, someone might want to come over and borrow one.

All three of them being girls, they naturally belonged to a vulnerable group, easy targets for bullying.

But the household pot shovel was different.

Pretty much every household had one, and it was quite ineffective for vigorous tasks.

It wouldn’t draw everyone’s attention while it could still offer some protection.

The three of them went downstairs very cautiously.

Taking advantage of the situation, Jhiang Yuan also carefully inspected all the stairs on the way down.

She didn’t find anything, unless there were extremely concealed cameras.

Downstairs, the cold wind was piercing, and the snowflakes floated down thickly.

In an instant, their heads were covered in white.

The three of them had not worn disposable raincoats, but had wrapped their heads in plastic bags instead.

There were quite a few people below doing the same, so it didn’t seem out of the ordinary.

Song Yi and the others were right there, only Jhiang Yuan didn’t go over.

They headed towards building twelve, where they could see the situation ahead.

Four people were already there collecting ice, having broken the surface.

Seeing someone approaching, a man below called out.

"Are you here for the ice as well? You can come down and gather it."

"Really, thank you!"

The kindness was unexpected, and the surprise in her voice was feigned.

The three of them went down happily, the pit wasn’t very big, only about thirty centimeters.

A few people held shovels and made a symbolic effort to dig.

They realized they couldn’t dig at all, but fortunately, Fan Qing had brought a fruit knife, which helped pry up some.

Otherwise, it would have been too awkward.

"That definitely won’t work, that’s too weak..."

Jhiang Yuan instantly played the victim, her tone filled with helplessness.

"Ah? What should we do then? We didn’t know the ice was this thick.

We don’t have anything sharp at home, sigh!"

"How about this, come over here and work with us.

We have two brooms over there, you can help sweep up the fallen snow.

Once these are full, we’ll fill your buckets with water."

They, three of them, had come down with a bucket each.

"Sure, that is really nice of you."

Fan Qing and Ye Mianmian started sweeping the snow with brooms, while Jhiang Yuan pretended to help by picking up ice.

The ice chunks that were knocked off needed to be quickly picked up into containers and covered.

"Big brother, you guys have been down here for a while, right? You’ve collected quite a bit."

The young man who called them over sounded young.

As for what he looked like, the specific circumstances, they couldn’t see.

Everyone who came out only showed their eyes.

"Yes, we’ve been out here for almost an hour, we came down yesterday.

This snow is not easy to clear."

"We really did encounter good people, otherwise we couldn’t have managed with so much snow."

With that, the man also brightened up and began to chat.

"Sister, you guys aren’t from our building, right? I don’t think I’ve seen you before."

"Yeah, we’re from the building next door, we saw everyone coming to get ice, so we came down."

The man didn’t say much, just kept talking.

"Then you guys came out quite late, we came down because we had stomachaches the last few days, only came out when it was nearly gone.

This snow water, it really is deadly."

Upon hearing this, Jhiang Yuan sensed an opportunity.

"Yeah, we also haven’t been feeling well, that’s why we didn’t come down.

By the way, big brother, how did people in your building find out that the snow was bad?"

Jhiang Yuan appeared casual, but her gaze was fixed on him, afraid of missing even a little detail.

"Our neighbors told us, everyone was having stomach issues, we also tried stopping the snow water out of desperation.

It actually did make a difference, then more and more people started coming down to dig ice, so we followed."

Jhiang Yuan nodded thoughtfully, he didn’t mention the gray snow, could it be he didn’t know?

"By the way, did someone notify you guys as well?"

A counter-question snapped her back to reality.

"No, it was our neighbor downstairs who saw everyone digging ice and came to check.

He knew the snow water wasn’t drinkable and kindly told us, otherwise we wouldn’t have known."

"I see, no wonder."

True to their word, after filling their own, they helped the three women fill their buckets as well.

"Hey, sister, do you want me to help you take them back?"
