Chapter 58 – Urgent Mission

Editor: Dragon

Bonus Chapter: This is thanks to the support from Jessie!

After so many days of running around, nobody complained, but in fact, they were very tired physically and mentally. Now, they finally had a place to settle down, and everyone wanted to sleep.

Each of the three houses had two rooms and one hall. Now, the three houses were interconnected to one another. They left the living room of 501 unchanged, and the living rooms of 502 and 503 were closed off by Zhang Shuoliang with a wall. A bed and a mattress were placed inside so that it could be used as a room. In this way, they formed eight rooms. Wu Jing and Zhang Shuoliang shared a room, Dong Dong and Su Ruizhe shared a room, and the rest all had a room to themselves.

Just before going to bed, Su Ruizhe specially made a comfortable kitten’s bed for Xiao Hei, and didn’t let him sleep on the bed, so as to not accidentally exchange bodies with Xiao Hei…

Everyone slept until the sun was about to set, then they saw the lights were switched on in the base, and there was a bustling noise outside. They looked out of the window, and the streets downstairs were crowded, looking very busy.

"Shall we go down and have a look?” Zheng Jiahe said excitedly as he had not seen such a lively scene for a long time, since the apocalypse broke out, which made him want to join in.

“Yes.” Zhan Yun thought about it a little and agreed. He should also try to become familiar with the base in advance.

They cleaned themselves up a little and went out together, but didn’t take Xiao Hei. After all, there are too many people and it’s hard to take care of a pet in case something wrong happened.

As soon as they came out from the small high-rise buildings, their team attracted attention. After all, buildings such as small high-rise buildings need a lot of work points. Those who could live in such a house either had to have a good background or strength. No one could provoke them casually. What’s more, the opposite side of the small high-rise was the law enforcement team. Armed soldiers stood in a line and stared at the people coming and going. Once someone provoked trouble, it would lead nowhere.

The sight of inquiry soon disappeared, and Zhan Yun began to observe everything. There were many pedestrians on the road, almost all of them were going towards the canteen, and they could smell the smell of food from afar.

“Let’s go to the canteen, too.” Although there was everything in Su Ruizhe’s space, they couldn’t always hide at home and eat their own food. They also needed to show their face in the base. After all, they were also famous amongst the army. Many people recognized them. There may be no problem for a short period, but it would be suspicious after a long time.

“Okay.” Everyone had no problem. Although the free food provided by the canteen may not be delicious, it was enough to eat. But now, it seemed incomparable.

A group of people followed the crowd and soon came to the canteen of the base. All the families of the soldiers working in the canteen were wearing uniform military green leisure clothes to guide the influx of people in an orderly manner.

There was a big sign at the entrance of the canteen, which said that there was a requirement for ten kitchen workers, who would be responsible for cleaning the dishes, plates, pots, and floors. The payment was fixed at three work points a day and three meals. This treatment was really very good. This kind of work must be much easier than moving bricks. It could not only satisfy people, but was also very safe. The saved work points could also support the family. One could see many people rush to the registration office after seeing the recruitment notice.

Considering the large population of the base, the canteen was very large. There were three floors in total. There were long tables and chairs on the first floor and the second floor. People went to the left window to pick up the hot food, and they could eat here directly. After eating, the tableware was deposited to the right window, and someone would clean it. There were soldiers all around the canteen. No one was allowed to take the tableware away from the canteen. If you damaged the tableware, work points would get deducted. If there was a disturbance, the punishment was very serious, so the order in the canteen was very good.

Of course, if someone wanted to take away the food, items such as steamed bread and steamed buns could be taken away directly, but you needed to prepare your own utensils for the soup.

There seemed lesser people on the second floor. Zhan Yun went upstairs and lined up at the left window.

After more than ten minutes, they got dinner. It was a large bowl of hot potato wonton soup. The potatoes were cut into pieces and cooked together with the wonton. It should be able to control satiety. With a temporary residence permit, everyone could get a bit of the drinking water in a plastic cup. After receiving it, the person in charge of food distribution ticked the back of their residence permit with a red pen. The drinking water could also be taken away with a cup or water bottle.

In fact, the base encouraged people to prepare their own tableware and water cups, to omit the steps of washing dishes, and the people who prepared their own tableware will receive more food.

A few people found an empty seat and sat down. They began to eat potato wonton soup. The canteen was very kind. The soup was thick, and they were willing to put salt. The potatoes and wontons were cooked thoroughly. They tasted soft and delicious.

This hot bowl of wonton soup, helped everyone warm up.

There was no wastage as all the things in the bowl were eaten, so they took the tableware to the right window.

When they went downstairs, they found that the crowd was basically heading for the management center. It was estimated that they would go to the task hall to register. After all, free accommodation was only for three days. If they continued living in the base, they had to work.

Anyway, it was okay. Zhan Yun and the others went to take a look.

The mission hall had a sea of people. Thousands of ordinary people in the white area were queuing up to apply for employment registration.

The counter in the red area was crowded with many people. Zhan Yun looked at them and found that there was a sign, for the city guard to recruit people besides the counter. The main task of the city guards was to assist the army to clean up the zombies near the base. After all, zombies followed the scent of living humans. The city wall was yet to be completed. The consequence of zombies entering the city was unimaginable.

Men who had strong physical quality and good with firearms were paid five work points a day, which seemed not so high, but if they killed the zombies themselves, each kill would be awarded two work points. In this way, if the strength was very good, it was not difficult to earn dozens of work points a day.

At present, quite a lot of people came to sign up. They were all men who looked very strong, but not everyone was so in the base. They needed not only good physical fitness, but also the ability to use guns. If the shooting method is too poor, they weren’t allowed.

Zhan Yun and his team were watching, when they were noticed by the passing Niu Dali.

“Hey! Captain! Did you come for the mission, too? It’s just that the captain asked me to look for you, and here I happened to meet you! ” Niu Dali’s face was full of a warm smile.

“No, let’s just have a look.” Zhan Yun smiled and greeted Niu Dali, “What does Captain Li want from us?”

Niu Dali looked around, lowered his voice and said, “It seems that there is an urgent task. I wanted to ask if you are willing to help.”

Zhan Yun raised his eyebrows slightly. They had just arrived at the base and wanted to rest for two days. They didn’t want to take a mission so urgently. However, after considering it, he agreed to meet Li Ming and ask about the situation.

Niu Dali found two cars and asked some people to take them to the military headquarters situated at the rear of the base.

Niu Dali takes them to a meeting room downstairs in the headquarters. After asking them to wait a moment, he ran to find Li Ming.

It wasn’t long before Li Ming came. He was still sweating as he had hurried.

“Hello, everyone. I haven’t seen you for a long time.” As soon as Li Ming entered the door, he greeted all the members of Zhan Yun's team.

They all nodded and then sat down together.

“What’s the matter for which Captain Li is looking for us?”

“There is an urgent mission. We are afraid that it is not safe to act by ourselves. I want to ask if you are interested in acting together.”

“What mission?”

“It’s solar power generation equipment. As you know, the base is using diesel generators. We are consuming diesel too quickly, so the power supply is very tight. The chief has decided to let us go to the largest Hongyang new energy photovoltaic generator factory in G City, and bring back the large automatic production line and all finished solar panels available in the factory.” Li Ming continued, “It will take about two days to go to G city. We have already had a team to go there for search and rescue. We wanted to go to that generator factory, but there are evolutionary zombies there, which caused a lot of losses to our team. For the safety of survivors and soldiers, we didn’t attack that generator factory again, so we would like to invite you to join us.”

By now, Li Ming is very convinced of the strength of Zhan Yun and his group.

“I’ve asked commander Jiang for instructions. If you want to join, not only will you receive some solar panels, but also a solar power generator. Of course, if you don’t want to go, we won’t be forceful. We just hope that Mr. Su can provide some plant weapons. We can exchange work points and materials for them.” That said, Li Ming still hoped that they could go together, otherwise they would not offer such favorable terms.

“When will you leave?”

“The day after tomorrow, at the latest.” Now, the population of the base was increasing, and the problem of power shortage must be solved as soon as possible.

“Let’s go back and think about it. We’ll give you an answer tomorrow.” Zhan Yun didn’t give an immediate reply. He couldn’t represent everyone’s wishes. He needed to go back to discuss it first.

“Okay.” Li Ming’s answer was very straightforward, as long as Zhan Yun is willing to think about it.

The author has something to say:

[Little Theater on the Street]

Brother and sister of Cheng family: There are many great things! Little Zhe, do you have your thighs?

Zhan Xiaoyun: No! Beat it!

Cheng Jiao: Well, the person is yours, food is everyone’s!

Zhan Xiaoyun: haha, you said I would give you a meal.

Zheng Jiahe (glancing around, suddenly realizing): Jiao Jiao, you see, it’s good to tear chicken by hand. It’s delicious to tear Cabbage by hand. It’s not bad to tear zombies by hand. I…I can get it for you every day!

Cheng Jiao: Thank you. I’d like to tear otaku by hand.

Zheng Jiahe (squatting in the corner and drawing circles): (weeping) Even with the power, I’m still an otaku who nobody loves.

Song Chengshu: Well, you are a background character anyway, it doesn’t matter!

[Small Wooden Theater]

After Su Xiaozhe got through the walls of the three houses, it could not be seen from the outside, so the guard who was sent to visit this team for a meeting found a strange thing:

When I first called them for a meeting, Zhan Yun, Su Ruizhe and Dong Dong came out from 501, two ladies from 502, and others from 503;

The second time I called them to have a meeting, Zhan Yun, Song Chengshu and Cheng Qi came out from 501, Cheng Jiao and Su Ruizhe from 502, and others from 503;

The third time I called them for a meeting, Song Chengshu, Zheng Jiahe, and Cheng Qi came out from 501 together, Zhan Yun and Su Ruizhe from 502, others from 503;

…

Guard Qin: Your circle is really chaotic…
