Chapter 37 -37 Useful Resources
The building manager knew that they had killed someone, and the body was still lying in room 902, whose door was broken and remained unrepaired, so it was left half-open. They had been there during the daytime as a group and all got quite a fright.
But the building manager also knew something else—that Gu Pan and her group were formidable. If they stayed in this building, everyone else would be relatively safe, as common thieves and robbers wouldn’t dare to come easily. So, a few of the residents stealthily agreed not to offend Gu Pan’s group, but to appease them instead, letting them stay there as long as possible.
So, the building manager quickly said, “Then we’ll continue patrolling and won’t put you on the schedule, so you all can feel a bit more at ease.”
Gu Pan was aware of their thoughts, but there was no need to fuss over such trivial matters, “Suit yourselves.” Then she led her people upstairs.
In fact, the building manager was puzzled. Gu Pan was the youngest girl among these people, yet her presence was so strong, even emanating a murderous aura—her eyes resembled that of a demon coming out of hell. Moreover, everyone was willing to follow her orders. What was going on?
They would probably never figure it out since who could know that Gu Pan had been reborn, carrying with her three years of murderous intent and resentment from after the apocalypse—it wasn’t something these people, who had just stepped into the apocalypse, could understand.
Once back home, Gu Pan and Lu Ruisheng entered the Space and found a lot of electrical components and a toolbox, as well as some steel pipes, all of which they took to their neighbor Chen Shaonan to study how to make electric batons.
Relying solely on physical combat was dangerous, so it was necessary to make more of these things.
But when they arrived at Chen Shaonan’s study, Gu Pan saw “explosives” written in a chemistry book and turned to Duan Shumei, “Teacher Duan, if you have the materials, could you make things like grenades or smoke bombs?”
Duan Shumei nodded, “If I have the materials, I can.”
Gu Pan said, “We’ll find a way to get the materials.”
Duan Shumei suddenly thought of something, “We have materials in the school laboratory. It’s perfect since Chen is planning to visit the school; we are missing some parts for the generator, which we could find there.”
Lu Ruisheng said, “Then we’ll go to the school tomorrow.”
Having agreed on the plan, Gu Pan and Lu Ruisheng went back home.
At home, they entered the Space again and organized what had been placed there recently.
Without sorting, it was unclear, but once they started, it was startling—there was a massive amount of stuff, all kinds. However, now it wasn’t stacked very high. If they wanted to expand the Space even further, they would need to stack things higher.
Before, they had considered if it were possible to fit a whole building inside the Space, but without a foundation, this was not feasible for now.
But how to increase the Space’s usage efficiency was something they needed to research slowly.
After organizing today, they had quite a bit more usable space.
The next morning, they continued their usual routine, practicing self-defense in room 901, and then went looking for supplies.
Their trip to the school wasn’t far. When Chen Shaonan and his spouse chose this community, it was because the school was close by, just over half an hour’s walk.
They had a clear objective. They might not find food today, but they were sure to find many useful supplies.
Now, places like schools and factories had already been entered by others, so paths had been made, and they didn’t need to dig through themselves.
Once inside the school, the path to the cafeteria had been well trodden, an indication that it had seen frequent visitors.
The classrooms and offices had also been searched more than once.
Gu Pan and the others’ first target was the laboratory, fortunately, no one had been there before.
At the entrance, they all put on gas masks, which they had found in the hotel. Others hadn’t taken them, but they had brought them back, and now they found use for them.
Everything liquid in the laboratory had frozen and evaporated over time, so there was no danger.
They didn’t understand the things in the laboratory, so they took whatever Chen Shaonan asked them to. There was no need for Gu Pan to put them in her Space, as these things were better left to professionals. Taking them without the expertise was pointless.
They brought with them sorting boxes, and soon filled two large ones.
Afterward, they went to the chemistry laboratory, Duan Shumei’s domain. They took many chemicals that Gu Pan didn’t know the names of, but Duan Shumei said they would be useful for making bombs.
However, Duan Shumei, looking at the chemicals, noted a problem, “We don’t have anything suitable to make grenade casings with. We might need to find a car repair shop or somewhere similar to find the right materials.”
Cheng Yang’s eyes lit up, “I have a friend who is a military enthusiast. He took me to a military club once, where everything is a one-to-one replica. Can we use those?”
Gu Pan thought this was the advantage of having high-end connections. Ordinary people might have heard of such places but usually never encountered them, whereas the children of privileged backgrounds had access to more sophisticated pastimes. Since she wasn’t knowledgeable in this aspect, she turned to Lu Ruisheng for a professional opinion.

Lu Ruisheng knew exactly what she was talking about, “Of course we can use those. Do you remember the specific address?”
Cheng Yang hurriedly said, “I remember, but it’s quite far. It would take at least three hours to walk there. How about we go first thing tomorrow? If we go today, it might be dark by the time we return, and we could get lost.”
Thinking of the many useful items that were guaranteed to be there, Gu Pan noted that with so many people, it might not be possible to carry everything back. Furthermore, many items might be dispensable in others’ minds, but with her Space, anything that might be useful later should be collected and saved.
So she said, “Just write down the address clearly, and that will be enough. One of Ruisheng’s comrades has a snowmobile, kept indoors and ready to use. We’ll just borrow it later to save time.”
Hearing they could borrow a snowmobile, Cheng Yang looked at them admiringly, “Bro, Sis, your friends are way too cool, being able to borrow such great stuff. I am lucky to be with you guys.”
Gu Pan smiled and said, “Your brother’s comrade sells extreme sports gear after retiring from the military. He also lives nearby. We just got lucky.”
Feng Zhekai suggested, “Then let’s hurry up and take these things back so Xiao Lu and Xiao Gu can go and return early.”
With that, they began transporting the items. The ground was covered in snow, so the sleds they pulled were not so heavy.
The return trip was smooth, and back home they moved everything upstairs. Afterwards, Gu Pan and Lu Ruisheng took the address written by Cheng Yang and left.
Following the directions given by Cheng Yang, Lu Ruisheng reached the location on the snowmobile in half an hour, and they pried open the door to enter.
Seeing walls lined with firearm models, Lu Ruisheng felt a surge of excitement. These weapons truly felt familiar to him.
These casings and models, with the accessories prepared back home, would make their armory quite impressive.
Gu Pan didn’t need to ask Lu Ruisheng what was useful; she directly placed anything she saw that was eye-catching into her Space. She packed the explosive weaponry, like grenades and Shock Bombs, into a box to be delivered to Chen Shaonan and Duan Shumei later.
Then Lu Ruisheng picked out a few handguns and placed them in a box as well. After retrofitting, they would suit their use. Although ammunition was scarce, it was still necessary for everyone to have a piece for self-defense.
These items for everyone didn’t need to be hidden; they were placed directly in the box.
He then chose a couple of submachine guns and two sniper rifles, putting them in the boxes that were out in the open. Some things needed to be seen by his teammates, to give them peace of mind.
Lastly, they packed helmets, bulletproof vests, commando backpacks, and other items, filling the boxes they brought with them. The rest went into the Space.
