Reborn in the Apocalypse: A Commoner's Survival Log
Chapter 171 The New Neighbor Upstairs
Every single dish on the table was eaten clean, with not a single grain of food wasted.
Plain congee was especially popular; two bowls per person weren't enough, and in the end, not a single grain of rice or drop of soup was left.
Seeing that everyone had put down their chopsticks, Zhou Yang checked the time; it was just past 7 o'clock. Calculating that the elevator would run for less than an hour, which should be enough, he suggested:
"Let's take advantage of the cool morning and go to the service hall now to get everyone's points cards processed. We can also register them in the Qianlong Squad at the same time. And then we can take care of the house purchases as well."
"There's less than an hour before the elevators stop operating in the morning. Let's hurry and get back quickly; we should make it in time."
"Okay! Let's go now."
"Yes, let's go now!"
……
Everyone agreed, and because of the limited time, they rushed out to the service center without even taking a break.
After going downstairs, the group drove to the service center.
Fortunately, there are hardly any people who need to apply for cards or register in teams, so the counter is quite empty.
As soon as everyone arrived, they were given points cards and their team registration was completed.
However, when the team decided to buy a house, they found that the two units on the upper floor had already been bought. So they had to settle for the lower floor and also bought the apartment across the street that had been rented.
However, Zhou Yang was very curious about who the new neighbors upstairs were, so he asked the clerk:
"Could you help us check the information about the two units that bought the apartment upstairs?"
Yesterday, they didn't sense anyone living upstairs at all. They were just asking around to confirm whether the upstairs residents posed any threat to them.
The clerk was in a bit of a dilemma, because according to regulations, he wasn't allowed to show it to just anyone. However, since Yan Fei and his group frequently came to exchange supplies for points, the clerk was quite familiar with them, and Yan Fei was also the leader's nephew...
Seeing the young man looking at the documents in his hand with some difficulty, and then at Yan Fei, Zhou Yang's eyes lit up and he immediately pushed Yan Fei forward.
Yan Fei understood immediately and said, "Don't worry, if anything happens, they won't find your fault. I'll talk to the higher-ups."
Upon hearing this, the clerk was no longer worried. He immediately opened a back door for them, retrieved the documents, and showed them to them.
Zhou Yang and the others took the registration form and looked at it, only to find that they didn't recognize anyone and that the faces were unfamiliar.
Moreover, each household only registered two residents, but the houses belonged to the same team.
"These people look unfamiliar? And four of them renting two large apartments on an entire floor? They seem quite wealthy."
The young man scratched his head and replied, "Oh, right, they just arrived at the base yesterday during the day. They're a team of four looking for a place. When they came to register, they immediately asked to buy the 19th floor of your building."
I initially thought it was a waste of resources and points for only four people to buy two sets, but they insisted on buying both. By the way, their team was quite impressive; three were level 4 ability users, and only one was an ordinary person. Oh, and they also registered two mutated animals—a tortoiseshell cat and a husky.
Yan Fei frowned upon hearing this: "Could you show us their team's registration form again?"
The young man then looked up the registration information for that small team again.
Yan Fei took a look at it and then showed it to Zhou Yang and the others.
Zhou Yang saw that it said "Youlong Squad" and only four people were registered.
The team leader is a man named Chi Feng, a level 4 plant-based ability user. The other two level 4 ability users are named Yu Hui and Jiang Yuanshan, with corresponding earth and mental attributes respectively. As for the ordinary person, he was registered under the name Ni Fan.
There are also two mutated animals: the tortoiseshell cat has a space, and the husky can change its shape and is extremely fast.
After looking at the table, none of them looked happy.
This small team is not simple at all; in fact, they are quite formidable.
With such a powerful four-man squad living overhead, we have to be very careful.
After returning the watches to the deliveryman, since there was less than half an hour left before the elevator stopped operating, everyone went home first.
等一到18楼,严非就先把17和18楼之间的金属门给拆下来挪到了楼下,用来截断16楼到17楼的通道,顺便也把17楼的电梯口也给封住了。
Because the 17th floor was still a bare shell, with only doors and windows installed, everyone started working together to do some basic renovations.
Fortunately, Zhou Yang Space has a lot of building materials and decoration materials, which is more than enough for a simple renovation.
Uncle Li was familiar with all of these jobs because he had worked in decoration and construction sites when he was young.
So Uncle Li led all the men to the field to lay out the basic wiring and water pipes for the houses on both sides, and then poured a layer of cement on top.
By the time we finally finished dealing with the work at both houses for the day, it was already past 1 p.m.
Zhou Yang stood up and stretched: "After the cement dries, we can apply some putty, lay some floor tiles, and seal the area around the windows."
"Maybe we should just stop fussing over it. As long as it's habitable, that's fine. I think the cement style is pretty good too." Chai Jin looked at the drab house and seemed quite satisfied.
"It's fine when it's neither too hot nor too cold, or even on a hot day, but it'll be a real problem when it's cold. It looks so drab and cold, and it'll let in drafts from all sides, so we'll have to fix it."
Chai Jin sighed, "Alright then."
After finishing their work on the 17th floor, everyone went upstairs together to take a shower, and then ate the lunch that Yu Jing had prepared earlier while discussing the team upstairs.
"I think we need to be more careful about what we do in the future. We need to keep someone at home. There's a metal-powered guy on our team. We wouldn't even know if our house got raided."
“I’m not worried about that. People probably aren’t that stupid. If we were to break into their house, they would be the first to suspect us. What I’m most worried about is that psychic. If he’s level 4, he can sense everything we do.”
Lu Xingye was taken aback: "Ah, if we discuss them here now, can he hear us?"
"What do you say?"
Lu Xingye: "!!!"
"Holy crap, is he listening to this?!"
