Chapter 41: Neighbors Who Only Shout Slogans

Chapter 41: Neighbors Who Only Shout SlogansAs soon as the new group was formed, neighbors began to talk in a panic.

"Chen Zhenghao is a devil! He broke into and robbed three households."

"The two young people in 301 tried to resist and were immediately shot dead by him."

"The other two households, 302 and 401, were so scared that they handed over all their food and drinks."

"Living without food or water means waiting for death, doesn't it?"

Someone angrily said, "We must unite and fight against this tyrant, Chen Zhenghao!"

Immediately, others responded.

"Yes, there are so many of us. How can we fear five or six of them?"

"If we all unite, he's no threat!"

"But he has a gun!"

"Humph, so what if he has a gun? How many bullets can he have?"

"Exactly, if we rush him, he can't stop us!"

"I can take him down with a left kick and a right whip!"

"He's a cripple now, not worth mentioning. If he didn’t have a gun, I could handle him alone!"

Everyone was filled with righteous anger, as if they couldn't wait to rush to Chen Zhenghao's place and execute him right now!

However, someone interrupted at this moment.

"So, when do we act?"

This question caused a brief silence.

Talking tough was easy, but risking their lives was a different matter.

Everyone understood the reasoning, but no one wanted to be the first to get shot.

They talked big to persuade others to take the risk.

"Well, this isn't a problem. We can definitely handle him!"

"After all, he's a desperado with a few punks. We need to plan carefully."

"Right, rushing in without a plan is foolish. We need to win with wisdom!" Sᴇaʀᴄh the NƟvelFɪre.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

Zhang Yi smirked.

Just a moment ago, they were saying Chen Zhenghao was nothing and boasting about their martial prowess.

Now, when it was time to act, they started talking about winning with wisdom?

He found it quite amusing.

At this moment, Uncle You, the security guard, suddenly spoke up.

"We can't let Chen Zhenghao continue. If this goes on, we'll all be killed by him."

"Even if we're not shot, being robbed of food and water is a death sentence."

"I can lead the charge. Let's teach these scum a lesson together!"

Uncle You was usually quiet.

He was a retired soldier with a straightforward and passionate character.

He was well-respected in the community.

Facing scum like Chen Zhenghao, who disregarded human life, he was filled with rage.

"Wow, Uncle You, you're awesome! No wonder you were in the army. Impressive!"

"Uncle You, I support you. Do you need a weapon? You can use my kitchen knife."

"I have a sword I bought on a trip last year. It's very sharp. I'll lend it to you."

"Chen Zhenghao is just a cripple. Uncle You, just find a chance to sneak up on him from behind, and don't give him a chance."

Everyone praised Uncle You, giving all sorts of advice.

But no one said they would go with him to deal with Chen Zhenghao.

Uncle You was somewhat speechless.

"Chen Zhenghao has five or six men and a gun. I can't do it alone."

"At least, we need a dozen young men to come with me. Only then can we be safe."

"I have military training and some skills. I can lead the charge."

Residents with adult males fell silent.

Meanwhile, women like Fang Yuqing, who had no adult males at home, were energized.

"Right, we women are weak and can't handle such scum. It's time for the men of Building 25 to show their manliness!"

"The men in our building are amazing. You must succeed!"

"It's time to show your chivalry. I hope you succeed quickly and protect us weak women."

The adult males in the group were naturally unhappy.

Some were single, either living alone or with friends.

They might risk their lives to fight the thugs, but the attitude of the female tenants made them reluctant.

It was clear that the women expected them to risk their lives as their duty.

The men were not pleased.

"No way! You always want female priority. Now, in danger, you want us to go first. Why?"

"We're giving you the equality you wanted. If we go, everyone goes together."

"You were so tough online. Why not show it to Chen Zhenghao?"

"I'm not unwilling to risk my life, but I'll only protect my own wife and kids."

The female tenants, seeing the men unwilling to face Chen Zhenghao, began to scold them.

"Are you men or not? Isn't your turn to step up now?"

"Asking women to take risks, how can you say that!"

"You're all cowards! Disgusting! I'll never marry someone like you!"

The new group was supposed to discuss how to deal with Chen Zhenghao.

But it turned into a gender confrontation.

Zhang Yi watched with amusement.

This situation was exactly the same as in his previous life.

That's why, in his past life, Chen Zhenghao killed half the building's residents and still managed to control the rest with just a gun.

They didn't even struggle, just closed their eyes and accepted their fate.

Uncle You, seeing this, anxiously called for calm in the group.

"Stop arguing. Dealing with Chen Zhenghao is the priority."

A female tenant from the seventh floor, named Liu Tiantian, was one of the main combatants in the gender argument.

At 22 years old, she had just graduated and was a self-proclaimed goddess.

With tempers flaring, Liu Tiantian responded to every male comment with a spray of insults.

Even kind-hearted Uncle You wasn't spared.

"Uncle You, stop pretending to be nice! You were in the army, so you should be the first to charge."

"There are so many men in our building. If each one takes one down, everyone else will be safe!"

"In today's society, women are clearly more important. Your only role is to serve us."

"I hope the useless men in this group understand this and don't make me repeat myself!"
