After I Fully Prepared for the Apocalypse, the Ungrateful Cried with Regret novel Chapter 87

Chapter 87: Chapter 87: A Grand Fleece

She blushed, feeling very embarrassed.

"Of course. Please, feel free. I have some other matters to attend to."

Cole Dempsey nodded in understanding.

"Wait for me here."

Nina Jacobs had Wayne Warner wait in the hallway outside the restroom.

Once inside a stall, she took out a bottle of Invisibility Potion.

She had gotten a good look on the way over.

They were very close to the Goldsmith’s Shop.

She planned to use the Invisibility Potion to scout the situation first.

After drinking the potion, Nina Jacobs deliberately looked in the mirror by the entrance. It reflected nothing but an empty space.

When she came out, Wayne Warner was still waiting for her outside, standing as still as a statue.

Not daring to make a sound, Nina Jacobs quickly ran out of the building.

She quickly made her way to the back of the Goldsmith’s Shop.

Inside an RV, there were seven or eight men in security uniforms.

It was nighttime. Three of them were playing cards, while a few others were lying or sitting around, staring at something on a phone.

Nina Jacobs circled around and realized why they were so relaxed: the body of the RV was parked directly in front of the Goldsmith’s Shop’s main entrance.

Getting in through the front door was impossible.

The brick walls were also blocked off by a thick layer of plastic sheeting.

’Do I have to wait until tomorrow?’

Nina Jacobs checked the time. Only seven or eight minutes of the Invisibility Potion’s duration had passed.

She walked to the back of the Goldsmith’s Shop and stared at the soft turf, thinking.

A few seconds later, Nina Jacobs began to use her Earth Element Superpower.

She wasn’t sure if she could use her Earth Element Superpower to dig her way in from the back, but the thought of leaving the next day made her unwilling to give up on the goods inside.

’With so many people guarding it, there must be good stuff inside.’

As the seconds ticked by, a thin layer of sweat beaded on Nina Jacobs’s forehead.

Fortunately, the ground beneath the turf was soft soil. As she dug deeper, she felt a distinct resistance.

This resistance gave her hope.

She had dug her way into the Goldsmith’s Shop!

To avoid making any noise, Nina Jacobs channeled more and more of her Superpower.

With only ten minutes of the Invisibility Potion’s effect left, she finally felt the tunnel change.

She was through!

Wasting no more time, Nina Jacobs squeezed through the opening in the corner.

Her Earth Element Superpower formed a shield around her, protecting her from the dirt.

It was completely dark inside the Goldsmith’s Shop, but a Superpower User’s vision allowed her to see her surroundings clearly.

There were numerous metal cabinets along the walls. To save time, Nina Jacobs didn’t hesitate, swiping them all into her storage slots.

That included the ring of display counters in the center of the shop.

Once that was done, Nina Jacobs quickly scrambled back out through the tunnel and rushed toward Cole Dempsey’s office.

In the hallway.

Wayne Warner was still standing in the same spot.

"Your sister still hasn’t come out?"

Cole Dempsey had just finished dealing with the matter concerning Scott Stone.

Scott Stone was apparently furious that Summer Warner had killed the dorm manager.

The man was his cousin, after all.

He had placated Scott Stone by promising that once Summer Warner led them to the supply caches, she would be handed over for him to deal with as he saw fit.

It was a shame to lose two people with their abilities.

But Scott Stone was more important to him.

Wayne Warner didn’t even glance at Cole Dempsey.

It was as if he were just thin air.

’I didn’t realize he was an idiot.’

Then again, his sister isn’t too bright either.

Cole Dempsey shook his head.

Just then, he saw Summer Warner walking out of the restroom.

She was flicking water from her hands, her face slightly flushed.

"Dempsey, you weren’t waiting here for me this whole time, were you?"

Nina Jacobs asked in surprise.

"No, just passing by," Cole Dempsey said with a smile.

"That’s a relief, then.

See you tomorrow, Dempsey."

With a smile, Nina Jacobs gradually walked out of Cole Dempsey’s sight.

While Cole Dempsey had been talking to Wayne Warner, no one had noticed her slip past from behind Wayne.

At that point, the Invisibility Potion only had about thirty seconds left.

Had she not stopped in the darkness outside to change into a clean pair of shoes, she would have had over a minute left.

Her other shoes had gotten covered in dust while she was running, and she was worried someone might notice the footprints.

The entire complex was quiet for the rest of the night.
