Chapter 295: Mob
Chapter 295: Mob
“So casual?” Hearing her voice with no emotion, Rong Sanshao was quite surprised. “I called you so many times and you didn’t respond. I thought they took you away.”
“Don’t worry, even if they took you away, I wouldn’t.”
“Just so you know, I took out six of them with one shot each, scared the hell out of those bastards, and they drove off in a hurry…”
He went on boasting continuously, “Sis, the neighborhood is safe now. You can confidently come out for a walk.”
Jiang Ning’s ears were tired of listening, so she switched to another channel.
In fact, Rong Sanshao wasn’t that powerful. Except for those who quit and those who refused to collaborate, there were only about twenty security guards.
They had raided several houses in a row, harvested quite a bit of supplies, and of course, had to run away quickly. Otherwise, if they pushed the residents of the neighborhood to the brink of resistance, they wouldn’t benefit at all.
You see, many homeowners had guns.
They did loot a lot of supplies, but at the same time, they lost several accomplices. Plus, with those shot dead by the Rong family, they probably lost at least thirty percent of their force.
If they didn’t run now, when would they? What if the mob stormed in?
“We can’t let our guard down,” Huo Yishen said seriously. “They know the neighborhood too well. Even if the mob doesn’t come in, they might come back with reinforcements.”
Guangming New City was a juicy piece of meat, so juicy it was practically dripping oil. There’s no way no one would come to take a bite.
Jiang Ning thought so too.
After breakfast, the two began to practice to keep their physical condition at its best.
Even the other two were not idle; Doudou was punching the sofa, and Coke was hanging in the corridor.
Around noon, Zhang Chao contacted them again. “Anning, are you guys okay?”
“We’re fine, how about you guys?”
“We’re okay, just some minor injuries.”
It was relatively quiet on Zhang Chao’s end, indicating they were in a safe place. Thinking of Huo Yishen’s identity in his past life, Jiang Ning couldn’t help but ask, “How’s the police station doing?”
“Quite a few people got injured, but overall, it’s okay.”
Facing eternal darkness, the police station and the military had long made plans. The military research institute in Huicheng had started development two years ago, not only supplying large quantities of ammunition to various cities but also providing bulletproof vests, anti-stabbing suits, and the latest night vision goggles.
Each of them was equipped with these items. The security patrol officers didn’t have handguns but had high-voltage stun batons and anti-stabbing suits.
The night vision goggles were excellent; although wearing them didn’t make it as bright as day, they could see people clearly in the darkness, leaving no room for the mob to hide.
But the momentum of the mob was still too strong. When they surged forward like a tide, it was still difficult to resist.
Jiang Ning was somewhat excited; these were things that didn’t exist in her past life.
With the support of the military base, the police in major cities no longer had to fight with empty hands like in his past life, only to tragically fall in the end.
“You and Brother Shen don’t need to worry. The police station has prepared a lot of equipment: pepper spray, dazzling flashlights, and I heard the army reinforcements are on their way.”
After hanging up the walkie-talkie, Jiang Ning told Huo Yishen the latest situation, leaning her head lightly on his shoulder. “You don’t need to blame yourself and worry unnecessarily. Many things are different this time.”
Acts of violence will continue to occur, but it won’t be as tragic as in the past life.
Although he never said it, Jiang Ning knew very well that this time’s difference was because of him.
As they looked at each other, Huo Yishen was about to speak when a shrill voice came from a distance again.
The two walked to the balcony, only to see countless torches emerging from the darkness, pouring into the neighborhood continuously.
They’re here, the mob is here…
Coke sensed that something was wrong; his fur stood on end, and he emitted a low growl from his throat.
The three humans and one dog quickly put on their bulletproof vests and helmets and went up to the rooftop.
Under the night vision goggles, groups of refugees surged in like a tidal wave, holding knives, forks, and sticks as they poured into various villas.
They smashed, bashed, kicked, and crashed.
Screams, cries, wails.
Countless sounds intertwined, like hell on earth.
The first target was the villa in the C position!!!
The richest man in Fengcheng, right? Living the high life every day, driving cars and flying planes. Today, let’s start with them!
The mob slammed into the doors, yelping as they were shocked by the gates. They climbed ladders and scaled walls, only to be electrocuted and fall down one after another.
Falling from a height of three meters, they couldn’t get up.
Meanwhile, gunshots rang out from inside the villa.
Unfortunately, the villa was too far from the gate, and with high walls in between, the effectiveness of the gunfire was limited, but enough to warn the mob.
Surviving for four years in the apocalypse, the mob was more cunning than ghosts. They quickly changed targets and viciously attacked other villas.
After observing, Jiang Ning found that the mob was organized, with several groups inside, quickly dividing the territory of the neighborhood and conducting various robberies without crossing boundaries.
Huo Yishen also saw it, “There are underworld forces among these people, some from the same village, some from the slums, and some turned evil after being robbed. Each building is a team, and the operation has been arranged beforehand.”
With only 50 villas available, they were swiftly claimed, prompting over a hundred people to dash towards the last remaining one.
Soon, a dense crowd gathered in front of the Building 50. Cleverly, they lifted dry wooden stakes and slammed into the doors while throwing stones at the windows.
Fortunately, the glass was bulletproof, so it couldn’t be shattered.
“Woof!”
The dog on the rooftop let out a roar.
“There’s a dog, this house has a dog!”
The excited mob below shouted. Anyone who could afford to keep a dog must be rich in resources. Let’s Charge!!!
The continuous angry barking of the dog attracted more and more mobsters.
Some bastard brought a ladder, thinking of climbing the wall to knock down the electric fence. The other mobsters shouted like they were on drugs.
They built the wall so high, the resources must be amazing!
Thought to be a waste, turned out to be a treasure.
Jiang Ning didn’t turn on the lights but silently activated the sprayer, pressing the start button, spraying gasoline like mist.
In the freezing cold, the air felt like cold knives. The mobsters were heavily dressed, with scarves and masks. They, in their frenzy, didn’t notice the gasoline spraying on them at first.
By the time they smelled something wrong, they had already been sprayed with a lot of gasoline.
“Not good, there’s gasoline!”
As soon as the words fell, the dark rooftop suddenly lit up with torches.
The torches were thrown down into the crowd.
Instantly, flames soared in the darkness, spreading rapidly…
Screams echoed one after another, as the burning mobsters, like headless flies, flailed around, quickly gathering in a sea of fire.
Gasoline alone couldn’t subdue these mobsters.
Huo Yishen held a bomb, lit it, and hurled it forcefully into the crowd.
Accompanied by a deafening explosion, many people were blown away.
Huo Yishen didn’t stop; he immediately threw another one, this time a fuel bomb.
The lethality surged even further.
The burning mobsters flailed around, igniting more people.
“Damn, awesome!”
“Standing on the rooftop of the Rong family villa, Rong Sanshao, who’s holding the binoculars, almost had his eyeballs fall out.
He knew that Building 50 was not to be messed with, but didn’t expect it to be this formidable.
Thank goodness he quickly changed his address to ‘sis’, otherwise, who knows how he would’ve ended up.
This woman…she’s too strong, even all the Rong family bodyguards swarming up wouldn’t be a match.
