Volume 1 Chapter 7 Gang Robbery?
"Come in."
Sitting in Lucy's tent, Li Xiang shouted again, not to mention, although Lucy's tent is small, there is nothing less in it, Li Xiang sat on a sofa and looked at Lucy who was stunned at the door.
"Are you self-cooked?"
Lucy asked cautiously, she was confused by Li Xiang's series of operations, this should be her own tent! Lucy looked around to see that it was indeed her own tent, but why did this guy in front of him give herself the feeling that this was his tent and that he was a guest.
Lucy forgot these strange thoughts, walked into the tent, and looked at Li Xiang suspiciously with her big watery eyes, as if she was seeking an answer from Li Xiang.
"Sit."
Li Xiang pointed to the sofa next to him and motioned for Lucy to sit down.
"What?"
Lucy sat on her sofa blankly, her eyes staring at Li Xiang.
"Sit down and talk! It's still early to choose, how can you sleep. β
Li Xiang looked around, "Are you the only one here?" Your mom and dad are them. β
Lucy's eyes darkened suddenly, as if she had thought of something sad.
"Theyβ" Lucy's tone was a little muffled.
"They were killed by shells at the beginning of the war, and I remember that morning, my mom was still making breakfast, and my dad was sitting on the couch, and what a wonderful weekend it would have been if it hadn't been for this damn war,"
Lucy choked up, her eyes welling up with tears.
"It was all so sudden, when I woke up, everything was in ruins, my parents were lying not far away, I was so scared, I was screaming like crazy, but no one came to help me, there were guns everywhere and people fleeing everywhere, I only remember where I was taken away by the fleeing crowd."
"I'm sorry to remind you of those sad things, I didn't mean to."
Li Xiang felt a little guilty, the war destroyed her home and relatives, this was something she didn't want to mention, but she uncovered her scars again, Li Xiang felt a little sorry for others.
"It's okay, it's not your fault, these things are in the past, if you want to blame those rebels, if they didn't start the war, Mom and Dad wouldn't have ......."
Saying that, Lucy didn't say anything, just sat like this, looking at the ground and thinking didn't know where it had flown to, maybe it was back in his own memories, Li Xiang didn't know how to comfort Lucy, he could understand the feeling of a girl's family being ruined, but he didn't know how to comfort someone.
In reality, Li Xiang hardly communicates with anyone easily, and tries to avoid unnecessary communication with other people, because he feels that they are not the same kind of people, where he feels that he is very tired of living, and he feels that he has not found a real friend, in which huge world, Li Xiang only feels that the whole world is so strange.
But here, this little girl, who has not known him for a while, makes himself feel an inexplicable sincerity, he can feel that this girl does not have any intentions or ulterior motives for him, maybe it is like feeling like a big brother, maybe he is a bit like one of her relatives.
Thinking of this, Li Xiang couldn't help but laugh in his heart, how could he be like a foreigner, it should be his own illusion!
After a while, Li Xiang and Lucy didn't speak, and finally Lucy opened her mouth first.
"Do you have anything else?"
It can be seen that Lucy has adjusted her emotions, but she can feel that she is still a little uncomfortable in her heart, and she is not as lively and optimistic as she was just now.
"Can you tell me about our goal for the night?"
Because Lucy said that she was going to look for supplies at night, and would go with her, Li Xiang was very interested, eager to know the specific process, so as to prepare for this night's expedition.
"That's what it's for! I thought you were going to do something, and what else do you need to plan for? Isn't it just to look around for places where there may be supplies?
β
Li Xiang shook his head.
"This city has been searched by so many of you for so long, and you can't find anything in the search, so where are you usually looking for supplies?"
"We usually search outside the city, because the inside is occupied by those gangs, and we can't rob them, I think about what you say, it seems to be getting harder and harder to find things lately," Lucy looked down and thought for a while, then looked at Li Xiang and said.
"It seems that the city's supplies are almost finished, so you have no other source of supplies except to look around?"
"Uh-huh........"
Lucy looked up suddenly, as if remembering something.
"I remember hearing them say that some people would go to gang strongholds and loot their supplies."
"Gang robbery? Can't you beat them? β
Lucy shook her head and said, "Not all of them are together, they are not many in comparison, note that the rebels provide them with better weapons, and they are all outlaws, so we won't clash with them,"
When Li Xiang heard this, he suddenly became interested in this gang force.
"Even so, they shouldn't be easy to deal with, how did you get the supplies from them?"
"Those outlying strongholds! They are all based in the center of the city, and there are about six or seven people in one base, so our people can get supplies from them. β
"What? You want to take supplies from those gangs? Lucy looked at Li Xiang in disbelief, normal people avoid those thugs, but they didn't expect that they wanted to take the initiative to provoke the one in front of them.
"Hmm."
Li Xiang nodded slightly, agreeing with Lucy's guess, it's not that Li Xiang thinks that he doesn't take these thugs in his eyes when he obtains skills, these gangs composed of former gangsters and the like have limited combat effectiveness, as long as they are careful, they should be able to take them down, and since these people can do it, then they can too.
After all, if there is a 100% profit, the capitalists will take risks; If one day % profits, the capitalists will flout the law; If there is a 300% profit, then the capitalists will trample everything in the world! Although he is not a capitalist, he can work hard, and in reality it may not have any effect, but here you may get what you want.
"If we succeed, we can get a lot, and that's reason enough for me to take the plunge."
Seeing where Lucy was stunned, Li Xiang smiled and said, "You can rest first!" If you don't want to go, you can tell me where it is then. β
"You can try it, but if it doesn't work, we'll forget it."
"Okay."
After Li Xiang finished speaking, he got out of Lucy's tent, and after communicating with the guards, he found a free tent and lay down, after all, even if he couldn't sleep, it was good to lie down and recover, and now Li Xiang still had palpitations in his heart after the battle with that deserter, but thinking that he had survived in the end and had obtained skills, the corners of Li Xiang's mouth curled up with a smile.
And in Lucy's tent, although Lucy was lying on her bed, but she couldn't sleep at all, she didn't expect to answer Ying Li Xiang, thinking that she was going to rob those thugs at night, and she was still a little excited in her heart, if she died, she was no longer afraid since that morning.
