However, that night, I heard rustling sounds outside.
Even my parents, who were sound asleep, were woken up. I told my parents to stay in the basement while I went up alone.
Then, using the binoculars from the second floor of the villa, I saw a large group of people rushing into my house.
Someone with a loud voice said, “Damn it, we’ve been tricked. This family doesn’t have any food at all.”
Another person responded, “Well, information online is always a mix of truth and lies. Of course we’d be tricked sometimes.”
I took out my phone and checked online, only to find out that Jack had spread the address of my house and the news that my family had food.
This had attracted a group of people to come to my house to loot, but they didn’t find anything.
After discovering this information, I quietly returned to the basement and told my parents that some people had come to loot the house, but
not to worry.
Soon, people entered the villa where I was staying.

My parents held rolling pins, standing in front of me, and even told me that if they couldn’t protect me, I should run quickly.
I quickly reassured my parents that it was okay. The entrance to this basement was very well hidden. If I hadn’t been curious as a child and run over here, with the foreign uncle taking me down once, I wouldn’t have known there was a basement here.
The people upstairs rummaged and smashed things for a while, and after not finding any food, they gave up.
My parents finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After that, we lived much more quietly, because in the apocalypse, if people found out you had food hidden, death would be waiting for you.
But since Jack did this to me, I won’t let them off either!
