The next day, she took the rubber boat and a series of equipment to the corridor.
Cheng Jikuan and Cheng Jili were already waiting for her. Seeing Ruan Ning holding so many things, Cheng Jikuan silently stepped forward to take over the rubber boat.
He was carrying a backpack and something long wrapped in cloth on his back, but no one knew what it was.
Cheng Jili was still gloomy and worried about the two people going out: “You must be careful outside and retreat if you encounter danger.”
Ruan Ning smiled and said: “Don’t worry. We are just going out to have a look.”
Cheng Jili looked at her brother: “You have to protect yourself and Ning Ning. I don’t need these things. We can both suffer a little. Hasn’t it been like this since we were young?”
Cheng Jikuan: “I know.”
Seeing Ruan Ning standing aside waiting, Cheng Jikuan spoke quickly and explained: “You must be careful at home. Don’t make mistakes because of sympathy. Even if there are old people and children begging you, you can’t open the door, let alone give them food and daily necessities. Do you understand?”
Cheng Jili took a deep breath: “I know, Brother.”
Ruan Ning turned around and opened the two chain locks. The two people quietly walked out of the safety door.
Cheng Jili bit her lip, carefully closed the two doors, and locked the chain lock.
Cheng Jikuan stretched out his hand and tried the door to confirm that his sister had not made any mistakes due to carelessness. He told Cheng Jili again: “No matter what happens, don’t go out.”
Cheng Jili nodded: “Promise to complete the task.”
Ruan Ning could see that the two siblings were very worried about each other, so she said, “Let’s go quickly and come back soon.”
Cheng Jikuan nodded.
Because the Self-Rescue Association found the house yesterday, the stairways and corridors had been cleared, leaving only garbage on the floor.
It was around four o’clock in the morning, so it was pitch dark in the stairwell.
The two people slowly groped their way to the stairs on the fourth and third floors. They found that the water had reached here, and the residents on the fourth floor were already empty.
Ruan Ning said: “Let’s go down through this window.”
After the rubber boat was inflated, it could not pass through a single window.
Cheng Jikuan first handed the rubber boat and the things on his back to Ruan Ning, climbed over the window, and jumped into the water. Then, he took the rubber boat from Ruan Ning and disassembled it on the water.
The height of the entrance lobby on the first floor of this building was 4.2 meters.
The height of each floor was a little over 3 meters, and now the third floor had been submerged, which meant that the water depth was almost 11 meters.
This was a very terrifying depth.
Ruan Ning was afraid that something might happen to Cheng Jikuan, so she told him to hold on to the window and inflate the rubber boat as soon as possible.
It was late at night and everyone was asleep, only the two of them made a little noise. Fortunately, the people on the fourth floor had already moved out, and the sound of rain helped cover them up.
After nearly twenty minutes, the rubber boat was finally inflated.
Cheng Jikuan climbed onto the boat, turned around, and asked Ruan Ning, “Do you need me to pick you up?”
When Ruan Ning saw that he was soaked, she felt a little embarrassed. After all, she had actually prepared a men’s waterproof jacket but didn’t take it out.
She lowered her voice and said, “No, I’m fine.”
Cheng Jikuan: “Then, give me the backpack first. I’ll take it.”
Ruan Ning had just put all her things on the stairs because she wanted to cheer herself up. She reached out and grabbed Cheng Jikuan’s backpack. Then, she picked up her own backpack and handed it to him.
After the handover, Ruan Ning turned around and picked up the long thing wrapped in cloth.
She didn’t pay much attention when she just took it, but now that she was holding it with one hand, Ruan Ning suddenly felt that something was wrong.
What did this thing feel like?
