The discussion ended without any problems.
It was around early morning, and Lao Xu and others didn't sleep all night.
This night is the most dangerous time, and it is also the time when trouble is most likely to occur.
Especially on this first night, the appearance of zombies made everyone in the museum unstable. Lao Xu, Hu Xiaodong, and Lei Tong were scattered across three floors to ensure that the relevant work was carried out smoothly.
In the event of an emergency or special situation, it is best to resolve it as soon as possible to avoid the situation from deteriorating and expanding.
By six o'clock in the morning, Lao Xu was already very tired.
You must know that he has been working almost continuously in the past two days, killing zombies, coordinating work, stabilizing people's emotions, taking the lead in handling everything from top to bottom, big and small.
To say he is the busiest person in the entire gym is an understatement.
But he is a mortal after all, and working too hard under such a stressful situation can be imagined as a drain on his energy and physical strength.
Lei Tong fetched mineral water from downstairs and handed it to Lao Xu.
Looking at the mineral water, Lao Xu thought for a while but still didn't open the lid.
This gymnasium is besieged by zombies, and related resources are scarce and precious. Every little bit can be saved.
Seeing that Lao Xu had not moved, Lei Tong knew what the other party was thinking, and immediately said: "Company Commander, you have been working hard all day, drink some."
Waving his hand, Lao Xu whispered back: "I'm not thirsty!"
After that, his eyes fell on the men of the inspection and management team who were moving tables and chairs in front of them, and asked aloud: "What are you doing?"
"Oh, the captain gave us an order to build fortifications on the fourth floor!"
"Hmph, that guy is really laid-back. He didn't do anything all night, and early in the morning he arranged for someone to consolidate his front. He is planning to go to the fourth floor!" Lei Tong teased angrily.
Lao Xu didn't answer. He stuffed the mineral water in his hand into Lei Tong's arms, and then said: "I'll go to him to ask about the situation!"
"Hey, Lao Xu, please drink some water!"
Arriving at the captain's office, the middle-aged man was still resting inside.
Due to the special approval given last night, Lao Xu entered the office smoothly and was not blocked again.
After pushing the door open and entering, the middle-aged man was still sitting on the recliner with his eyes closed and concentrating.
Hearing someone coming in, he reluctantly opened his eyes and looked up.
Seeing that the person coming was Lao Xu, he slowly stood up and asked, "Oh, it's Lao Xu. How was the situation last night? Is the museum still stable now?"
"It's pretty stable."
"Are those people below making trouble?"
"No! I went to each venue to explain the situation. At present, everyone's mood is relatively stable."
"Yeah! Very good! You did a good job and lived up to my expectations. Thank you for your hard work!"
Talked a lot of useless nonsense.
Lao Xu was not interested in these meaningless compliments from middle-aged people.
He only wanted to find out two things.
"Captain, I just saw that the team members outside were moving things towards the fourth floor. I heard that it was you who gave the order to build defenses on the fourth floor?"
"Oh, yes, it was my order. The food supplies are all on the fourth floor. In order to ensure safety, the defense on the fourth floor must be strengthened. In addition, after the fortifications are completed, I will personally go to the fourth floor to supervise the battle to ensure the safety of the supplies! "
The middle-aged man spoke beautifully.
Indeed, this house is indeed important.
He is responsible for the safety of hundreds of people in the entire venue.
There is nothing wrong with him going up.
It's just that in Lao Xu's opinion, the middle-aged man's decision may not be as pleasant as what he said.
When middle-aged people think about it, there are two things.
First, he is afraid of death!
Undoubtedly, he had no choice but to settle on the third floor last night.
At that time, the zombie attack came suddenly, and he and Lao Xu and others were dealing with sound sources on the third floor.
You must know that he always stays on the third floor on weekdays. After all, the third floor has complete living facilities.
But last night, the middle-aged man was not sure about the situation in the building, so he could only spend the night on the third floor.
For this reason, he spent the whole night in a recliner.
He was able to survive the whole night, but if he kept enduring like this, his body and bones wouldn't be able to bear it.
Now, after a night of tormenting with the people below, we can already confirm that the museum is safe.
Since this was the case, he started to ask people to garrison the fourth floor.
As for the second one, it’s naturally materials.
This material is key to survival.
If Lao Xu hadn't reminded him last night, the middle-aged man would have ignored this.
But after listening to Lao Xu's words, the middle-aged man immediately realized the importance of supplies.
Especially when the old man mentioned the possible riot among the people in the museum.
When you are hungry, you can do anything.
Middle-aged people must prevent the people below from rioting and robbing food.
Therefore, going to the fourth floor was forced by the situation.
He can leave other things to others, but this is the only thing he can't delegate.
Without supplies, he loses control of others to rely on.
So no matter how pleasant and high-sounding the middle-aged man's words are, in Lao Xu's eyes, these are all bullshit.
But Lao Xu couldn't say much about what the other party decided.
He can't point at the opponent's nose to point this out.
He was not that stupid. He changed the subject and asked a second question: "Captain, last night you said you would arrange for someone to count the supplies. I wonder if there are any results?"
Hearing this, the middle-aged man glanced at Lao Xu.
He didn't answer in a hurry, just stared at Lao Xu.
Lao Xu didn't shy away. He knew that the middle-aged man had doubts about his persistence in this matter.
After a few seconds of confrontation, the middle-aged man looked away and replied leisurely: "How could I forget such an important thing? Don't worry, I asked someone to do the statistics after you left last night."
"Has that number been released? We must quickly distribute food according to this number."
"Don't worry, the number won't be counted so quickly. My people are working hard to count."
"The statistics haven't been done yet?" If it weren't for the fact that he was a middle-aged man, Lao Xu would really have cursed his mother.
It's been a whole night, what statistics can't be finished?
Lao Xu didn't believe how much food and drink supplies there were in this world, otherwise no results could be obtained for so long.
Needless to say, most of the people below did not do it seriously.
Or... the middle-aged man didn't ask anyone to do statistics at all.
It's not impossible.
With such a shortage of supplies, the inspection and management team has been deducting money on weekdays.
Look at what the survivors in the museum eat every day, water! !
You said this was the arrangement in the past. What else do you expect middle-aged people to do in a pinch?
Lao Xu didn't want to speculate on the middle-aged man's mind, but there were all the disgusting things this guy did on a daily basis.
Lao Xu had to think so.
After hearing Lao Xu's words, the middle-aged man frowned slightly.
Obviously, Lao Xu's questioning made him very uncomfortable.
"Old Xu, I told you that I will find someone to handle the supplies. Your task is to maintain order in the library for me. You yourself said yesterday that this matter is very important. So don't be distracted and do your best. Do what you have to do. As for the rest, I'll take care of it, understand?"
The meaning of the middle-aged man's words was very clear. To put it bluntly, he was reminding Lao Xu not to touch materials.
