Chapter 60: People Doing Dog Things

Bella was afraid that one sofa wouldn't be enough, so she pushed another one and then began to put things on it.

Boxes of drinks, bottles of water, bags of rice and noodles were all piled onto the sofa by her.

During this time, the man indeed came knocking at the door, unexpectedly someone she knew.

Daisy had recounted his scumbag deeds.

But not to mention this one-sided acquaintance, even if it were a familiar face, she couldn't open the door. Unless it was a relative.

But here, where were her relatives?

The only one was still lying downstairs. Moreover, when he had begged for help, Elijah had ignored him, possibly holding a grudge.

Sure enough, the man outside soon showed his true colors, beginning to curse loudly! Bella paid no attention, continuing to move things around.

In his frustration, the man began to kick at the door. Bella felt very fortunate! Thankfully, Elijah had anticipated all of this in advance.

Next... it would be the windows.

There was no emergency plan for this.

If there were tools, they could have been used to board up the windows beforehand.

These were all lessons from Elijah's past experiences, shared with Bella.

Now she had no tools, she could only rely on herself!

She opened all the curtains, then locked the windows from the inside.

Standing in the middle of the room, she could simultaneously keep an eye on the living room balcony windows and the windows of the master bedroom.

Turning back, she could also see the windows of the second bedroom and the kitchen.

If the other party really intended to break in through the windows, there would definitely be quite a commotion. This would give her some reaction time.

Bella tightly gripped the sheath of the knife in her hand. She could only pray that the other party wouldn't think of this method!

...

Benjamin rubbed his bulging stomach and took a sip of water. He looked at the empty bag of dog food beside him and reminisced for a moment. Surprisingly, it didn't taste bad!

"Ugh! What am I saying, that's dog food..."

"Wait, does that mean I'm insulting myself?"

"Damn it, it's all because of that woman!"

He didn't pay it much mind, turning around and pulling the curtains up using the sheet.

Then he began to search for apartment 601's location.

Soon, he determined the direction through the building he lived in. He had observed it for several hours every day, so he was very familiar with it.

Next, he looked around and found that only the position directly facing his building, the second bedroom of the building below, was the most suitable.

This was because only there were suitable fixed objects for binding.

It was a solar water heater belonging to an unknown household, relatively close to the second bedroom.

Benjamin tied one end of the sheet to the support of the solar water heater and pulled it hard. It was sturdy, not budging at all.

He felt relieved, then double-checked that the sheet and curtains were securely tied.

Benjamin tied the other end of the curtain to his waist. This way, even if he lost strength or didn't hold on properly, he wouldn't fall. Everything was ready!

Benjamin pulled the tied sheet slowly backward.

He hadn't played rock climbing or rappelling before, but he had seen pigs run, after all.

When he reached the edge of the roof, he imitated what he had seen in videos.

He pushed against the wall with his feet, wrapped the sheet around his hands, relaxed a bit, and slid down bit by bit.

Although it was slow, less than a meter in a minute... at least it was done properly and safely!

Christopher, on the opposite side, saw Benjamin's slow and steady movements, almost like a turtle climbing.

He wanted to laugh but thought that for an ordinary person, it was quite impressive!

Moreover, this pervert's mind was quite meticulous, actually thinking of breaking in through the window. However... that woman was not simple either, seemingly already on guard!

Bella heard movement upstairs, the sound of shoe soles rubbing against the walls and glass, quickly identifying the direction.

Benjamin also wanted to keep quiet, but he couldn't control himself!

Time passed slowly. Christopher was almost falling asleep from watching, and Benjamin finally "climbed" to the fifth floor, standing on the window sill.

By now, Benjamin was already sweating profusely, his arms feeling sore and weak.

"Finally!" Benjamin thought, about to take out tools from his pocket to break the window.

But when he looked down, he found that there was a woman inside the window at some point, standing with her arms crossed, quietly watching him.

"Uh..." Oops, he was found out! Benjamin's heart skipped a beat! It's okay, it's okay, just a woman. Benjamin quickly calmed down.

If it were a man, he would definitely be very fearful, and wouldn't even dare to entertain the thought of breaking in through the window. But a woman...
