"Oh, they were lucky. That person happened to be sitting in the second row, and the people next to him were in charge of guarding. When he groaned uncomfortably, his teammates next to him were alerted. After reporting to the captain, they tied him up before he woke up. The members of the Bravehearts Team were sitting in the last row, and the people next to them were also sleeping. Naturally, they didn't notice it. When that person attacked and bit him, even if they pushed him in time, they were too close to him, so they still accidentally bit him. In fact, his skin had just been cut a little. They didn't expect the zombie virus to be so powerful that such a small wound would be infected!……Tsk tsk, looks like I have to be armed to the teeth in the future to prevent the risk of skin exposure!”As Yu Xiaowei spoke, he thought of the zombie virus's power, and his thoughts went astray.
"Tsk, it's fine in winter, but what about in summer? Even if you don't get bitten to death, you'll die from the heat!" Zhao Ledan mocked.
"Hmph, there's always a way!" Yu Xiaowei thought.
"Your life is still more important.”Lu Hui unconsciously touched his neck. Between dying from heat and being bitten to death, it was more dangerous to be bitten to death.
Everyone understood the situation clearly. The important thing was to learn from the experience. Although Yu Xiaowei's words were a bit exaggerated, the main idea was right. In a situation where one's strength was insufficient, it was especially important to take protective measures. It would be better to go through some trouble than to regret it later. At the same time, he had to be more careful in battle.
After entering the mission hall to complete the mission, exchanging points was the happiest moment for everyone. This mission could be exchanged for 2000 points for each team, excluding the items in their respective cars.
No one planned to trade for it now, not to mention that the other teams had more people and needed more food.
Before they left, they exchanged phone numbers. Every house had a telephone, but they could only call the base's internal line. This provided great convenience for the residents in the base. Otherwise, it would be difficult to find someone in such a large base.
With 2000 points, plus the fact that he did not lack food and daily necessities, he did not need to accept missions for the time being.
After solving the temporary survival problem of the team, Guo Rui wanted to look for Father Guo as soon as possible. Zeng Zhiqiang promised to call Zhang Tiesheng the next day to see if he could help him.
On the second day, after breakfast, Zeng Zhiqiang felt it was almost time to call Zhang Tie. Unexpectedly, before he called Zhang Tie, his phone had already rang. All the others were startled as it was their first time to receive a call.
Coincidentally, the call was from Zhang Tiesheng. After reporting the completion of the task to his superior yesterday, he especially highlighted the performance of the Hope Team. His superior asked him to try to let them join the official organization of the base. Zhang Tiesheng, who had this plan, called to talk about it the next morning. On the phone, Zhang Tiesheng only said that he wanted to talk to Guo Rui. Zeng Zhiqiang also had the same intention. Therefore, they agreed to meet him at once. They both acted like a swift and decisive person. After hanging up the phone, Zeng Zhiqiang left with Guo Rui.
The two of them came back before noon. Judging from Guo Rui's expression, there should be good news.
As expected, before anyone could ask, Guo Rui took the initiative to share his good mood."Platoon Leader Zhang has agreed to help. They are all under the jurisdiction of the same military region, so it's convenient for them to contact each other. He said that after they contact each other, they can arrange a time to pick them up!”
"That's great. Platoon Leader Zhang is quite enthusiastic!”Yu Xiaowei sighed.
"It's true that he's not bad, but more importantly, he wants to rope us in!”Although Guo Rui appreciated Zhang Tie's victory, he had to be realistic.
"What do you mean?"
Seeing everyone's questioning eyes, Zeng Zhiqiang continued,""It's because we performed well and wanted us to join the base. I rejected it!”
"Wouldn't rejecting us directly make the other party lose face and make things difficult for us?”Zhao Ledan was a little worried.
"You're too tactful. What if they keep their eyes on us in the future? Besides, they're soldiers and don't like to do things half-heartedly. I've left some leeway in my words. We can still cooperate if there's a need in the future!”Zeng Zhiqiang did not think much of it. He was not going to reject them directly and make them look bad. Even if the government had some secrets, they would not fall out with them over such a small matter unless it was something that was very attractive to them or something that made them willing to fall out with them. Before Zeng Zhiqiang replied to the other party, he had discussed it with Guo Rui before deciding to do so.
Li Xi was not worried that they would force him. She had also thought of the problem Zeng Zhiqiang and the others had considered. At the same time, she thought that if the other party knew about her ability and the space earring, it would be something that anyone would want to take by force at all costs. Even though they could not take it, and even if they did, they could not use it, many people had the twisted thought of " if I can't have it, you can't have it ". They were probably afraid that the other party would become stronger and threaten their status and interests.
Zheng Ji also thought of himself. His previous genetic modification was unsuccessful, but after Li Xi's help, not only did it resolve the side effects, but it also improved his ability to a higher level. Although he didn't know how Li Xi saved him, he boldly guessed that Li Xi himself was not an ordinary person. He had many guesses, but he definitely couldn't think of Li Xi's half-alien identity. In order to prevent others from coveting him, he secretly made up his mind to better cover for Li Xi in the future (although he didn't know what Li Xi was doing, it didn't prevent him from knowing that she had secrets and couldn't let others know). Li Xiruo knew that Zheng Ji was thinking this way and would be moved to tears. She sighed that this bodyguard was really worth saving!
Since it had already come to this, the others did not think too much about it. In any case, the decision made by the captain and Advisor Guo would definitely not be wrong.
Zhang Tiesheng was very efficient. The next day, he had already given them a reply, asking them to tell Papa Guo to wait for him at the gate of the base.
The entire team was very happy to receive news from the family members of the team members. Most of the team members had either lost their parents or had no parents. Everyone had already treated the team as their own home, and the family members of the team members were also considered their common family members.
He gave Father Guo a day to settle the matters there (Father Guo was a middle school teacher before the apocalypse. After entering the base, he relied on cleric work to survive. He was not an important person to the base and could leave at any time). They agreed to pick him up the next morning (the road conditions in the apocalypse could not determine the driving time of the car, so they could not agree on the exact time. They could only give an approximate time).
The leader of the base was not bad. Although he was rejected, he did not deliberately make things difficult for her. Instead, he actively helped to find her. It was probably not the first time he was rejected, so he thought it was normal. For the sake of better cooperation in the future, it was not bad to do him a favor.
On the day of departure, Zhang Tiesheng had specially assigned a soldier to accompany them, saying that he was going to show them the way. This arrangement was most likely Zhang Tiesheng's own decision. The team appreciated his favor.
The team consisted of Zeng Zhiqiang, Guo Rui, Yu Xiaowei, and Zheng Ji to pick up Father Guo. The journey was not far, and it was just to pick up one person. There was no need to mobilize so many people. Besides, the car could not accommodate so many people. (Yu Xiaowei wanted to join in the fun and took the initiative to go.)）
Li Xi wanted to go to the market when he had time.
The stalls in the bazaar basically exchanged items. Food was the most commonly used token. The specific exchange standard was negotiated by both parties. He took some food from Zhao Ledan and put it in his backpack (he had to register with Zhao Ledan every time he consumed supplies. The main purpose was to keep track of the team's supplies). He said goodbye and prepared to leave. When Zhao Ledan heard that they were going to the market, she excitedly requested to go with them. Lu Hui also nodded in agreement.
Although Li Xi looked cold on the outside, he was good to people he approved of. Moreover, Zhao Yuedan was the only two women in the team. They had always lived in the same room, so their relationship was naturally close. Li Xi didn't like to have physical contact with people and didn't talk much. Zhao Ledan, who knew her, didn't mind. Instead, he liked her cold on the outside but warm on the inside. She was much better than the second-rate artistes she served before the apocalypse, who had a gentle appearance on the surface but were vicious and hypocritical on the inside.
It was rare for the two women to go to the market together. Zhao Ledan said emotionally,"Why do I feel like I'm shopping with my best friend! Ah Xi, did you?"
Li Xi squinted at her intoxicated and fantasizing expression. The corners of his mouth twitched and he said in amusement,"If you don't think about the zombies outside the base, you can think so!”
Zhao Ledan pretended to be annoyed and slapped Li Xi."Ah Xi, can't you cooperate with me when I'm in a good mood?”
Looking at Zhao Ledan acting like a spoiled little girl, Li Xi held back his laughter and cooperated,"Yes, it does feel like shopping!”In fact, Li Xi was the youngest in the team, but her mature performance always made people ignore the age gap. Zhao Ledan often forgot that she was like a younger sister and liked to act coquettishly to her occasionally.
"Cough cough, two beauties, don't just flirt. I'm a living person beside you!”Lu Hui could not stand the two girls 'coquettishness and deliberately interrupted their interaction.
"Little Hui Hui, if you don't want to be alone, why don't you go out with Xiao Wei?”Zhao Ledan also mimicked Yu Xiaowei's nickname for Lu Hui and teased him.
"Aiya! How could you follow that stinky Wei! I'm so handsome, you should call me 'Brother Hui'!”Lu Hui winked at Zhao Ledan and Li Xi.
The two girls had goosebumps all over their bodies at the same time, causing Lu Hui to choke.⊙_⊙‖
These two people were too unlovable! He had no taste! She was too unfeminine! It was too…
Zhao Ledan happily admired Lu Hui's embarrassed look for a while before changing the topic to Li Xi,"By the way, what do you want to buy? We don't seem to lack anything! Um…"
Li Xi heard her speak halfway and suddenly stopped talking. He turned his face to look and didn't know what Zhao Ledan had thought of, but her face was actually red.
Seeing Li Xi's puzzled expression, Zhao Ledan thought that since they were both women, there was nothing to be embarrassed about. However, she glanced at Lu Hui and pulled Li Xi closer. She whispered into her ear,"Um, there aren't many sanitary pads left. We need to prepare some.”
"Oh!" Li Xi suddenly understood. Because of her special constitution, her period came once every two months. She had not come since the apocalypse, so she did not think of this problem for a moment. She did not want Zhao Ledan to waste her points, so she took the opportunity to reply in a low voice,"I still have a few bags in my backpack. I'll give them to you when I get back!”
" Eh, you have so many things in your backpack…" Zhao Ledan raised her voice out of curiosity, but when she saw Lu Hui looking at her, she quickly lowered her voice." Why do you have so many things in your backpack?”They had to carry their backpacks with them when they were outside. In order to reduce the weight, they only put in necessities. Other than food, they would not put the same thing twice. They would replenish it after they used it.
Li Xi didn't have sanitary pads in his backpack. When she went back, she naturally took them out from her space earrings and pretended to take them out from her backpack. She knew that Zhao Leyan was just asking casually and didn't suspect anything. She pretended not to care and said,"I stuffed it in when I was collecting supplies once, but I didn't use it until I heard you mention it.”
"Oh!" As expected, Zhao Ledan no longer cared about this topic. Instead, she thought that she could save some points. She really had the attitude of a housekeeper.
