Perhaps because of the commotion yesterday, no one came to knock on the door all day.

It wasn't until evening that the sound finally came from the security door again.

Unlike last time, this time there was not only knocking but also crying and shouting.

Shi Jinwei sighed helplessly, stood at the door with the iron bar, and did not open the door.

Through the peephole, one could see a woman who looked haggard.

The woman had obviously heard the footsteps and immediately asked the door, "Young lady, I'm from room 501. Do you have any medicine? Anything for a cold, fever, or inflammation will do. I'll buy it."

She actually came to ask for medicine, and she didn't seem to be lying.

Shi Jinwei frowned slightly.

Seeing that she didn't answer, the woman continued anxiously, "Sister, I beg you, we can't get to the hospital now, my child is delirious with fever."

As she spoke, she took out several hundred coins and gestured towards the cat's eye to indicate their name.

Shi Jinwei still didn't open the door, but said, "Big sister, I don't have any medicine either. Look at my face, to be honest, I had a fever all night yesterday, and I also have a slight cough. Do you have any cough medicine? Or could you sell me some, I'll buy some."

She returned the words verbatim, and even coughed a few times on purpose.

When a woman hears her cough, her instinctive reaction is to quietly take a step back.

Thinking his actions were unlikely to be noticed, Shi Jinwei saw them all through the peephole.

She sneered inwardly, then spoke in a weak voice, "Big sister, do you have any medicine? You could give me just one pill."

The woman felt a little flustered upon hearing this.

She couldn't hold it in any longer: "I don't have any, I don't have any medicine. You should ask someone else."

After saying that, he fled in panic, completely unaware of Shi Jinwei's increasingly calm gaze behind the door.

She herself didn't realize there was a flaw in her approach, but Shi Jinwei did.

If you're really worried about the child, why would you nag her for so long?

She claimed to be there to ask for medicine, but Shi Jinwei felt that she was more like testing her.

Presumably, everyone else is also paying attention to what's happening here.

If she softens and agrees, then countless people will come knocking on her door...

Therefore, the door cannot be opened!

-------------------------------------

Things did indeed turn out pretty much as she had predicted.

After the woman left in a hurry, she turned around and went up to 1202, which was not the 501 she had said.

Several people were sitting inside, men and women, but the two men who had knocked on Shi Jinwei's door earlier were sitting in the center.

The two men's faces were no longer friendly; their eyes were sharp, and they looked like they were not to be trifled with.

Seeing the woman return, he immediately asked, "How did it go? Did it work?"

The woman shook her head: "No, that girl is too cautious. She's as hard-hearted as a rock. She didn't react when I told her the child was sick. I heard her voice sound like she had a cold, and she kept coughing, so I came straight back. It would be troublesome if she got infected."

Hearing her say that, the two men muttered "bad luck" under their breath.

"Forget about her for now, let's start with the other families. Who has the fewest families?"

"402, I think. I remember a single young man lived there."

"Alright, let's start at his house. Everyone get ready, we're moving in tonight."

-------------------------------------

With the game's hidden time acceleration, order collapses exceptionally quickly.

That night, all the residents heard unusual noises coming from inside the building.

At first, there was a knocking sound, and then the knocking got louder and louder.

Then came the sound of banging on the door, followed by the man's roar and screams.

A group of people, like bandits, used axes to break open the door to room 402 and pushed the man who tried to resist to the ground.

They then began looting supplies.

The man tried to resist, but was hit with an axe. Blood gushed from his carotid artery, staining the ground and other people's clothes red.

But these people were completely fearless; on the contrary, they even stomped on the corpse.

Then the second one, the third one...

The shouting and cursing didn't stop until dawn.

Those who weren't knocked on escaped unscathed, but many more were tempted to leave.

Staying inside meant either starving to death or being killed. Rather than waiting to die there, they preferred to go out and take a chance...

But these people are naive.

On the 13th day of the torrential rain, these devils in human skin have completely torn off their disguise.

The rainwater spread to the third floor, so they sent people to guard the third floor.

Want to leave? Impossible!

Even after handing over the supplies, the women were still raped and murdered by these people.

Men become objects for them to vent their emotions, being punched, kicked, or even killed.

In just one night, the building turned into hell.

The screams continued unabated. Those who hadn't left trembled and hid in their homes, awaiting their execution, which they didn't know when it would come.

Shi Jinwei, being at home, naturally heard the noise as well.

But she remained calm throughout.

There was a security door, and she had already secured the survival rope. If they could break down the door, she would simply jump out of the window and leave.

With 17 days left, she reorganized everything in the space once again.

If she eats sparingly, the water and food inside should be enough for her to last at least 10-13 days.

She wasn't planning to leave right now because she knew she still had time.

Perhaps these people had gone wild all night, vented their frustrations, and had enough food.

They did not take any action that night, which relieved everyone in the building, who felt they had escaped unscathed.

But after 14 days, these people started again.

The target is Shi Jinwei.

There was not only knocking on the door, but also the sound of metal being cut.

Knowing that Shi Jinwei had installed a security door, this group of people somehow found cutting tools.

Seeing how "lucky" she was, she quickly packed her things.

There are still plenty of supplies in the guest room. Even if the space is crammed full, there is still enough instant food and water for at least one person for more than 20 days.

She couldn't take these with her, and she didn't want to leave them to those people.

But the banging on the door reminded her that she had to leave as soon as possible.

They lit a fire to burn the remaining food.

Throw the escape rope down, then prepare the kayak and propeller.

The noise outside the door grew louder.

Especially the two men who had come before.

As he quickly removed the outermost door, he cursed, "Damn it, I'm going to get my hands on this little bitch today. You wouldn't open the door last time, I'll see what kind of person you are today."

Meanwhile, Shi Jinwei, who was inside the house, had already thrown the kayak into the water and was climbing down with a 12-kilogram propeller on her back.

Inside the window, all was quiet and peaceful; outside, a fierce storm raged.

Although I had done my research and prepared myself mentally, I didn't have any fear of heights.

However, climbing down a rope without any safety equipment is quite a test of Shi Jinwei's mental fortitude.

The raincoat she bought had a face shield, but the large raindrops completely blurred her vision, making it difficult to see the wall in front of her.

Relying on her senses, Shi Jinwei slowly walked down the slope.

I was very careful with every step, telling myself not to panic.

Some people had already spotted her and were standing at the window looking out, their eyes filled with disbelief.

Some people even opened their windows and craned their necks to look outside.

When they saw that there was a kayak below, their eyes lit up with hope.

But the experiences of the past few days have completely stripped these people of their bloodthirstiness.

No one dared to jump down directly; they could only watch Shi Jinwei's slow movements.

On the ninth floor, with a loud "bang," the door was finally cleaved open.

A group of people rushed into the house and found the window open, but Shi Jinwei was nowhere to be found...
