Chapter 58: Yao Ran’s Doubts



After the brother and sister said their goodbyes, Long Yu, Yao Ran, Shi Xuan, and Huang Qian left. While others were still busy looking for food, they took advantage of the time gap to look for liquefied gas cylinders.

As soon as Long Yu turned on the motorboat engine, he immediately attracted the attention of many people. Some shameless people even dared to approach them, but before they could speak, Long Yu had already driven away and fed them a mouthful of exhaust gas.

The snack stores were submerged, but it was not difficult to find them because Yao Ran had come to order takeout many times every day before the typhoon came. In addition, the snack stores are located at the entrance of the Ling Yuan apartment complex, and there is a big signboard at the snack street entrance.

Yao Ran searched for a while with a flashlight and saw the big signboard. Fortunately, a small part of the signboard remains on the water's surface. Otherwise, Yao Ran might not be able to find it.

She pointed at the signboard and said, "Long Yu, that's the entrance to the snack street."

Yao Ran pointed the way with a flashlight, and Long Yu followed her guidance. Not long after, they arrived at the signboard's location.

While Long Yu tied the motorboat to the signboard, Yao Ran took out a diving mask and waterproof headlamp.

The water is more than ten meters deep. It takes time and physical strength to pry open the doors and windows, and Yao Ran's lung capacity is not enough. There are many oxygen tanks for diving in her space, but she can't get them out now.

This was one of the inconveniences of partnering with others. She didn't have the freedom to use what was in her space, and she had to find a logical justification for her supply of

resources.

Three minutes...

She counted until five minutes, but there was still no movement from the rope. Yao Ran frowned slightly and pulled the rope a few times, but Long Yu still did not respond. Even for a skilled man like Long Yu, five minutes should be his limit.

Before Yao Ran had time to take out another diving mask and headlamp, she heard the sound of water splashing. Long Yu emerged from the water and swam toward the motorboat. With Shi Xuan's help, he got on the motorboat and said, "I have checked several stores. All the doors were forced open, and everything inside had been emptied."

Yao Ran frowned when she heard what he said. 'Empty? Who has such ability to do that?'

Huang Qian was disappointed after hearing what Long Yu said. He sighed and said, "We can't find the gas. Even if we have rice and flour, we can't cook."

They react quickly, but others are faster than them. Yao Ran lowers her head and falls into deep thought.

The day after the typhoon hit Juncheng City, these snack bars were already flooded. Even if some shopkeepers managed to move away some of their goods, moving all goods from all the stores would be impossible.

At that time, there was torrential rain, fast water currents, lightning, and tornadoes. Success was impossible without good diving equipment and skills. Unless... the stores were looted as soon as the typhoon started.

Yao Ran raised her eyes and looked at Long Yu. She remembered that he would always leave the apartment complex every day-day and night. At that time, she was even curious about what he was doing outside.

She narrowed her eyes slightly but said nothing. Although she had doubts in her heart, she decided to play dumb for now.

After making up her mind, Yao Ran looked at the others and said, "Now we can only try our luck at the liquefied gas station. I hope the liquefied gas station has not been emptied yet."
