Chapter 70 Resupplying
His hands trembled slightly. "Are you sure we can have these, miss?"
Rayne smiled. "Yes, of course. I have little use for them right now! I'm more than happy to give them to someone who can use them!"
Walter thanked Rayne a few more times before letting her out. Lily's mother had passed out from the pain, but both Rayne and Walter knew that the real danger had already passed. Rayne left them with extra bandages and medical supplies so they could change the bandages regularly to avoid infection.
When Rayne walked into the hallway of the building, she found a secluded spot in the stairwell and opened her system to leave a whole large pallet of supplies.
There were many cases of water bottles, first aid kits, canned soups, canned processed meats, canned tuna, bags of rice, and even sacks of potatoes. She also added a smaller basket of apples on top, thinking that the kids would enjoy them.
The large amount of supplies quickly filled the stairwell, making it a little difficult to walk through.
As Rayne turned to leave, she met Julian's curious gaze. Her body froze in place. "Hi... I... was just about to come out," she said nervously.
Julian looked at the huge amount of supplies in the stairwell and then back at Rayne. Her nervousness was written all over her face, so he took a deep breath and decided to ignore it for now.
"How did it go?" he asked. He wasn't sure exactly what had happened inside, but he had heard the little girl say that her mom was injured.
"It should be good now. There was a large shard of glass buried deep inside her leg. We got it out and bandaged it," Rayne replied, giving him an update.
Julian nodded and waited for Rayne to make her way down so they could set off together. "I tried
She stepped through carefully, walking around to assess the situation.
While many of the shelves had been emptied, there was still a decent amount of goods left in the store. Things like food and toilet paper were mostly gone, leaving only empty spaces where they once stood. However, trash bags, detergents, spices, cleaning supplies, and animal food were still commonly found around the store.
Rayne quietly made her way around the store, occasionally adding things to shelves and filling some of the empty spaces.
She focused on essential items like food, water, and first aid, trying to place these items in random spots around the store. Her secondary focus was baby items like formula, diapers, and medicines. She couldn't imagine how difficult it was for new mothers to take care of their recently born babies in this time period, where the world had been flipped upside down.
Rayne walked around for a while until she heard Julian call for her. She quickly stuffed her backpack with random items from her system to appear as if she had found a decent haul and walked over to find Julian.
He stood at the front of the store, holding a small cardboard box. He had managed to fill it with random items he found, some of which Rayne noticed were the ones she had placed around the store.
He smiled as he saw her approach with a full backpack. "Find anything interesting? I was happy to find a few decent food and medical items," he said, tilting the cardboard box to show Rayne the first aid kit she had placed around the store.
"Oh! Nice haul! I just found some random items, nothing crazy," she replied, appearing excited for his finds.
"I guess we can make our way back now. The walk back might be a bit more challenging with these items," he said as he adjusted the cardboard box to sit more comfortably in his hands.
Just as they made their way out of the store, they heard a few gunshots nearby. Julian dropped the cardboard box he was holding and grabbed Rayne by the hand, pulling her into a small broken building across the street from the superstore.
