The person next to me felt a jolt in their heart.
The word "stinky" was etched in his memory far too deeply.
From the moment he met the term "brat," it had always been a negative thing in his mind.
It can range from small-scale anesthetics to large-scale explosives.
"Shishi, which water smells bad? Explain yourself more clearly."
He felt it was necessary to ask and find out.
The entire military region has only one freshwater well, from which all soldiers and their families rely for food and water. If something goes wrong, the consequences are unimaginable.
"Stinky, they all smell bad, Shishi, don't drink it, your stomach hurts, yue."
She made a gesture of foaming at the mouth and rolling her eyes.
Shishi pointed at the two buckets of water that Xiao Dan had just brought back, looking extremely disgusted.
Laxative? Or something else?
Because there was still dough batter in the water tank, it wasn't poured in, so the two buckets of water were left at the kitchen doorway.
The group immediately took a serious look.
They all had complete faith in Zhou Shi's nose.
Xiao Dan immediately spoke up, "Xiao Xie, go to the well right now and find out which family received fresh water today."
"Tell the young soldiers to stop pumping water for now, guard the well, and not allow anyone to approach it, so as not to destroy the evidence of the crime."
"Also, go and find out about the water usage in the cafeteria today, but don't alert them."
The canteen uses a lot of water and has a water storage tank, but it also draws water from a well.
I just don't know if today's water usage is from the reservoir's reserves or newly pumped water.
At this time, the cafeteria would already be making breakfast.
If contaminated water is used, the amount of food wasted is unimaginable.
Damn it, I want to smash that bastard.
"Okay, I'll go right away." Xie Lin rushed out of the courtyard.
Human life is at stake, and there is no time to lose.
After giving Xie Lin his instructions, Xiao Dan immediately went next door to call Ding Youliang.
Ding Youliang was startled when he saw his old partner's dark face as soon as he got up.
"Old Xiao, what's wrong?"
Without further ado, Xiao Dan didn't waste any words.
"Old Ding, the freshwater well has very likely been poisoned. Xie Lin has already gone to the well."
"Go and call a few soldiers to meet him. Make sure to notify the families who have taken the fresh water before they start using it."
The type of poison, its severity, and its nature are still unknown; we cannot afford to be careless.
Ding Youliang got goosebumps and ran outside as fast as he could.
Damn it, which bastard is so vicious?
That well is a matter of life and death for tens of thousands of people.
Yao Lixiang also felt a chill run down her spine.
The entire military region only has one freshwater well. If it were poisoned, would anyone be allowed to live?
"Brother Xiao, what can I do?"
"Go to Old Li's house and have the couple maintain order in the compound and assist Xie Lin. I need to go to the barracks."
The water was usable yesterday, but there's a problem with it today; it's very likely that it was poisoned last night.
The military camp and compound do not allow outsiders to enter casually, so the poisoner must be inside the military camp or compound.
Therefore, before the facts are ascertained, everyone is a suspect.
Whether the well water is toxic needs to be tested, so he needs to call the military hospital and ask them to send a doctor.
He also instructed the soldiers on guard to keep watch at the gate, and that no one was allowed to leave unless there were special circumstances, until the situation became clear.
Yao Lixiang agreed and hurriedly went out.
Zhang Tong was very worried. "Old Xiao, I'll get Shishi ready and then take her to the well. With her nose, it will be easier."
If it weren't for her nose, she wouldn't have known there was something wrong with the water.
Minor problems are fine, but I don't even want to think about major problems.
Testing takes time, and what if the person who poisoned the poisoned the poisoned person hears the news and runs away?
Xiao Dan thought about it and thought it was a good idea.
"Then you should hold her hand tightly and find Xie Lin to protect her, so that no one with malicious intent can hurt her."
Zhang Tong nodded, "I will keep a close eye on the girl."
The couple split up.
Xiao Dan quickly tidied himself up and ran towards the camp.
While tidying up the furry child, Zhang Tong instructed, "Shishi, we're going to find Chou Dan later. Don't run off to play by yourself. Stay close to Egg Mom and Chou Dan."
“There might be a lot of people there, and there might be some strange people. If you want to speak, just whisper to Egg Mom or to Stinky Egg, understand?”
She was in a rush and didn't wash her child's hair.
They simply brushed the white powder off her body, temporarily washed her face with water from the well, and wiped a little less of the white powder off her head with a damp towel.
Once her hair is dry, you can rub the flour off for her.
"ShiShi knows."
Regardless of whether the child brushed her teeth or not, she rinsed her mouth with water, drank some water, and put a piece of candy in her mouth.
After quickly tidying herself up, she took her pet dog, who was carrying a small megaphone, and hurriedly went out.
Xie Lin ran to the well in one breath.
It was early, so there weren't many people carrying water, but we did see two or three military wives carrying buckets along the way, probably rushing to get water to make breakfast.
He overtook them and whispered a few words to the young soldier guarding the well.
The young soldier turned pale and hurriedly opened the registration book.
"Commander Xie, not many people came to fetch water this morning, only eight households."
Xie Lin glanced at it and handed the notebook back to him.
"You guard the well, and don't allow anyone to press the water or get near it. Just say that the canteen needs to fill the pool with water."
The canteen uses a lot of water, and it's really not easy to supply so many people with just one well.
Many times, they worried that the well would dry up.
Fortunately, everything has been fine for so many years, but now the problem lies with human error.
hateful!
This procedure was also carried out in the past, but residents would be notified in advance so they could prepare water in advance.
