Just always bring takeaway, take it into the space and eat them or discard them. Nobody will know.

Exactly, that too when they are witnesses for all the goings on inside?

Who suffered a wound?

Exactly. The water levels, even if they reduced to a certain extent, it can't have sinked past the sixth floor or the fifth.

Exactly why do you want to go? If it's for accompanying the other 3, it's still fine as a team. Also, robbing banks is also ok, since your space needs that. Why are you still thinking of raiding supermarkets?

Wear goggles in case the cold air stings your eyes.

Why? Is it centralised, like controlled from the basement or something? Underfloor heating is something specific to a house, and operated from inside the unit, right? Does it need electricity or do you use firewood or coal in a fireplace or something? Our hometown doesn't go beyond 12°C or 10°C at it's coldest. We don't have fireplaces or underfloor heating systems. I'm just curious about how it works. Our ancestral house in my native village has a fireplace outside the house, and metal plates running under the brick/tile flooring , connected to the fireplace. The smoke doesn't enter the house, but the whole house is warm whenever there's firewood burning there. The fireplace acts as a substitute kitchen, when we are cooking for a large number of people, and during summers, there's a detachable element which disconnects the fireplace from the plates running under the flooring, to avoid heating the floor during the sweltering hot weather.

I've seen a similar equipment in a mall recently. The balls are made from very light foam type material, so you won't get hurt, but it has some sensors to know whether it has hit the human body. You must gauge the ball's trajectory and dodge it. Mind you, one needs to be very agile, and it's equivalent to a workout session, dodging them. Balls come from different directions and heights, it's sort of a 3 sides walls and one side transparent enclosure. The more times you dodge, the more points you get. There are prizes like toys, small electronic gadgets for 20 points and above. Mind you, it was very difficult to dodge them. My athletic friend scored 16 and got defeated. So far, 32 is the highest points scored, as I heard.

Yup.

If the residential units are facing an open corridor which is connected to the stairway, noise travels several floors below. I can hear my husband speaking in the 3rd floor, when I'm still 4 floors below in the stairwell, if our main door is kept open. Though I can't make out the exact words, I can recognise his voice and hear him loud enough. P.S. Our whole building is full of brick walls and concrete floors.
