Chapter 6 Securing the House
Accompanied by the sound of the Torrential Rain.
I stared at the neighbors upstairs and downstairs, afraid that someone would take advantage of the situation and disturb me.
After consulting with my Childhood Friend, I took the key and opened his door. I checked the package he sent and moved everything usable into my home.
He mocked me for being overly cautious, saying it was just rain, and taught me how to arrange things for safety.
I took four steel bars, crossed them over the door, and propped them against the walls on both sides to seal the door.
I also took out the parallel bars from my Childhood Friend's package, placed them two centimeters from the door, propped them against the walls on both sides, and tightened the screws.
My house has an inward-opening door, so even if someone forced their way in, these five rods would block them.
To be safe, I moved a chainsaw from my Childhood Friend's house and plugged it in at the entrance to test it.
It hummed loudly and was handy.
Even an adult male would be deterred from trying to take it bare-handed.
My windows had anti-theft nets, so I wasn't too worried.
But I found several large locks from my Childhood Friend's package and locked the anti-theft windows with them.
Then, I used the remaining steel bars to seal the inside of the windows.
That way, even if someone cut through the anti-theft net or broke the window, they would have to cut through the steel bars to get in.
I opened the waterproof glue that hadn't been opened and brushed it on the walls where it leaked in my previous life, then covered all the windows with waterproof cloth.
It was a bit dark, but otherwise fine.
My Childhood Friend told me he had several boxes of candles.
There were vacuum-packed roast chicken and goose, several bags of rice, flour, and oil, and some bacon and two boxes of dried fruits.
It was said that his parents had prepared them to offer to the gods after the house was renovated.
In addition, my Childhood Friend had bought several boxes of self-heating hotpot and instant noodles to send over.
He originally planned to come back in two days to supervise the renovation and eat them himself.
I never expected a Torrential Rain to disrupt everyone's plans.
It was all free for me now.
The signal was intermittent due to the rain, and it was about to cut off.
My Childhood Friend suddenly stopped joking and said in a low voice on the phone:
"Song Ning, you should have received a red package from me before. Inside was a Tang Sword I collected and an Electronic Crossbow.
These things are very dangerous. I originally didn't want to tell you. But with the rain, who knows when it will stop? You must protect yourself well."
