Wei Yuan broke the awkward atmosphere and took the initiative to say hello: "Ashan will be an official member of our team from now on." Everyone advanced and retreated together, and faced difficulties together.
Everyone else fell into an awkward silence, and Zhao Ying's expression was a little unclear.
Although it wasn't the first time we met, we didn't really have any good memories with each other.
Gao Wenwu coughed dryly and took off the things he was carrying on his shoulders, and said, "This is the allocated material."
This place still belongs to the boundaries of Beijing and Hong Kong. Outside the Sixth Ring Road in the outer suburbs, the population of Beijing and Hong Kong is too large. It is simply unrealistic to evacuate them all overnight. And just like what is shown in many doomsday movies, many people would rather die than Evacuate.
People who have enjoyed high-tech conveniences must have thought that one day they would live a life of rationing and fixed-point rationing of supplies. People have to adapt to the ups and downs of life...
Zhang Zheng glanced sideways at Jiang Shan and teased the other companions: "Be careful, she can hit people."
He has a bad temper, has violent tendencies, and is difficult to maintain. No matter how you look at it, he doesn't look like a good candidate for a team.
Although Gao Wenwu was tall and looked like Kong Wu, he seemed to be much easier to talk to than Zhang Zheng. He scratched his head and said to Jiang Shan, "Welcome."
Wei Yuan said: "Zhao Ying, come here."
Zhao Ying followed Wei Yuan silently. Jiang Shan still remembered that this girl seemed to be afraid of him, but now he brushed her shoulder and didn't even hide.
Jiang Shan was surprised.
Wei Yuan and Zhao Ying pushed open the door of a confession room. The small temporary rooms were all renovated from the previous confession room. No wonder Jiang Shan felt that the space was cramped.
Wei Yuan stopped and looked at Zhao Ying: "You can follow the large troops to evacuate to the Western Desert area. I have already applied with the director and they will leave a place for you."
The evacuation work is difficult and dangerous. If there are many people, we can only evacuate in batches. The later the evacuation is, the more dangerous it will obviously be. Even with the status of the research institute, it is not easy to temporarily obtain a quota.
Zhao Ying kept her head down, and then she said in a low voice: "I want to stay."
Wei Yuan: "???"
Zhao Ying had always wanted to leave before, especially when she came back from the mountain, which was a bit post-injury stress. In today's environment, many people actually suffer from this kind of PTSD. But why did Zhao Ying suddenly change her temper and want to stay?
So Wei Yuan was surprised: "Why?"
He saw Zhao Ying purse her lips tightly, as if she was trying to control some of her emotions, and then she said: "My father has lost contact."
Zhao Ying's father is also engaged in scientific research, but he has retired due to poor health in recent years. Zhao Ying has been working in Beijing and Hong Kong, and she rarely sees her father for a year.
After the accident, the world left no time for anyone to react, and almost all the rhythms of life were disrupted overnight.
I still remember that at that time, there were countless stampedes and bloody incidents with panicked people walking on the streets.
All planes were suspended, and many people's mobile phone signals began to lose contact. Buses were crowded with people, but they were abandoned halfway. The nation's health care systems were the first to collapse.
Zhao Ying's father is old and has some underlying diseases. Now he cannot be contacted for several weeks. It is difficult for anyone to have hope.
Wei Yuan didn't speak for a long time, and Zhao Ying standing in front of him was obviously holding back tears. "I have nothing to worry about in this world anymore, so let me stay."
When people are not tied down, they no longer fear.
"Have you thought it through? I have to tell you that Jiang Shan will stay here in the future..." Wei Yuan had to remind Zhao Ying. He is not asking Jiang Shan to replace Zhao Ying, but there must be no discord between the team.
There was a hint of determination on Zhao Ying's face, "I'm not afraid anymore." In this world now, the more afraid you are, the faster you will die. Are you afraid it will be useful?
Jiang Shan glared at them outside. Although it was not the first time for everyone to meet, it was really embarrassing.
Zhang Zheng looked at Jiang Shan: "Do you really want to join us?"
Jiang Shan thought to herself that it was not that she wanted to join, but that everyone in the world seemed to want her to join (pulled her into the gang).
"What exactly does your team do?" Jiang Shan asked.
Gao Wenwu was stunned: "No, you don't even know what to do and you dare to come here?" Should I say it or not, you are too brave. In recruitment, you have to clarify the recruitment conditions before you can come in.
Jiang Shan found that the efficiency of the dialogue was too low. This group of people was still the same as before, only talking nonsense and not saying anything useful.
Jiang Shan walked to the pile of large packages that Gao Wenwu was still on the ground, stretched out his hand and lifted it up: "What kind of supplies is this?"
Jiang Shan thought it should be food and water. After all, Jiang Shan had good food at Songshan Hospital before. Now that he has changed places, he doesn't want his living standard to drop too low. At least you have to have food to eat, right?
Gao Wenwu on the side was startled: "Stop!"
Jiang Shan looked at the big bag he had lifted. It seemed to be quite light and not heavy.
Gao Wenwu looked at Jiang Shan, his lips trembling, "You, how can you lift it up!?"
Jiang Shan saw the fly-eating expression on his face, what's wrong? Although this bag is quite large, it doesn't seem to weigh much. Is it necessary to be so surprised? Or does it contain something important?
At this time, Wei Yuan and Zhao Ying had come out. When they looked up, they saw Gao Wenwu and Jiang Shan facing each other in a stalemate, with a huge bag between them.
"This is our new protective clothing..." Gao Wenwu saw Wei Yuan, "Three hundred pounds..."
Wei Yuan's eyes flashed across in astonishment, and then he looked at Jiang Shan.
Jiang Shan also heard Gao Wenwu's words, and subconsciously let go of his hand. He heard the bag fall to the ground with a loud sound, and the dust on the ground suddenly rose.
"Absolutely..." Zhang Zheng's eyes widened.
Is there a female version of Popeye?
Jiang Shan stared at the bag on the ground, confused for a moment. This thing weighs three hundred pounds? Jiang Shan looked at his hand and saw a clear mark on the skin of his palm.
Wei Yuan pushed the wheelchair over and glanced at Jiang Shan's palm, "Are you okay?"
Zhang Zheng stared at Jiang Shan: "You must not have been subjected to any weird experiments by those people in the hospital, right?"
Wei Yuan frowned: "Zhang Zheng, don't talk nonsense."
Zhang Zheng said unconvinced: "I'm not talking nonsense, look at her..."
Jiang Shan's whole body looked abnormal.
When he came down from the mountain, he still looked sick. Now looking at his skin color and his skills, what else can achieve this effect besides the Thing experiment? "I'll just say that those people at Songshan Hospital are mentally ill. They might cause something..."
It was extremely difficult for Wei Yuan to get Zhang Zheng to say less.
"Songshan Hospital didn't do anything to me." Jiang Shan suddenly said in a low voice. Even if Songshan Hospital wants to do it, it must have the ability.
They themselves were in a mess.
Zhang Zheng sneered: "You really trust those guys in the hospital." To them, the nose is not the nose, the eyes are not the eyes.
Jiang Shan didn't want to argue anymore. There was something in her heart that needed to be straightened out. She turned around and walked towards Wei Yuan and asked him, "Where is my room? I'm tired."
