Chapter 205: Trouble
In the end, they still failed to wake up the people in the base.
I can only take a temporary rest in the duty room.
However, they also kept the soldiers on duty for most of the night.
The soldiers were not liberated until the relief workers arrived.
"Oh my god, let's go eat something. My ears are almost numb from all the noise."
The soldiers off duty went to the mess hall to eat with the people who brought them there.
But the people in the duty room were not willing to give up either.
The old professor pointed directly at a soldier and asked him to take him to find the mutant ginseng.
"I'm sorry, there are many mutant plants in the Ji family base, but I have never heard of mutant ginseng."
The soldier refused outright.
The mutant ginseng was in Ji Wanyi's hands, and only a few people knew about this news. After the mutant ginseng was detected to have special functions, it was immediately classified as top secret, so of course they didn't know about it.
"Then take us to find Ji Wanyi. I'll talk to her in person."
The old professor waved his hands. Of course he knew what was going on.
He didn't bother to say anything to these people who didn't even know the secrets.
"Sorry, Miss Ji is resting now. Please don't disturb her unless it's urgent."
The soldiers were getting tired.
"I've come all the way from Kyoto in person, how can this not be urgent? Take me to see Ji Wanyi!" The old professor ran out of patience and shouted loudly.
"I can take you to see Miss Ji, but before that, I have to contact the captain of Li Jian, and then Captain Li Jian will report to President Hua in Kyoto. Only if you get President Hua's permission can you meet Miss Ji."
"Please, I'll take you to see Captain Xuanyuan of the Sword."
The soldier gestured for the old professor to come in.
But the old professor didn't move.
"Forget it, there's really no need to alarm President Hua. Take me to the lab first."
Of course what the soldier said was false. It wouldn't be that troublesome to see Ji Wanyi, but he did have to pass through the sword first.
As luck would have it, Li Jian and his men had just finished their night training and were eating supper in the cafeteria, while listening to the complaints of several young soldiers who had been poisoned.
I heard him say he was going to see the lab.
The little soldier was a little tempted.
Because the people watching the laboratory were from another team, he took him over and entangled the people from the other team, and then he was freed.
"The laboratory is guarded by a dedicated person. In theory, no one else is allowed to approach."
However, what needs to be explained must be explained to avoid being wrongly accused. There are cameras here, so it is best to explain it clearly here.
"Are we the others? Take us there, and I'll go talk to the people guarding the lab myself."
In the end, the little soldier took him there.
On the way to the laboratory, I had to pass by the cafeteria.
Now there are people performing crosstalk in the cafeteria, and it is really bustling.
"It's so late, is the cafeteria still open?" asked Mediterranean, looking at the brightly lit cafeteria.
"Of course, the Ji family base is considerate of everyone. The cafeteria is open at night, and everyone can take whatever ingredients they want."
The young warrior replied expressionlessly.
He had already guessed what was being said inside and just wanted to take these three people away quickly.
"We haven't had dinner yet. Let's go in and eat something and try the local food." The woman said, rubbing her belly.
As the three of them spoke, they didn't even ask the young soldier who was leading the way, and directly left the team and walked towards the cafeteria.
What could the young soldier do? He could only go back and continue his duty. After all, they no longer needed him to lead the way.
The three men stepped into the cafeteria, and the soldiers, who were noisy and cheerful, immediately became restrained when they saw strangers.
They sat back in their seats and started eating.
"Why is the window closed? Where is the chef? Didn't you say the door should be left open?" the professor asked with a frown.
"The canteen is indeed open. The ingredients are over there, and you can use the pots and pans inside freely. There is also plenty of gas. You can cook it yourself if you need it. Can you still wait for the chefs to serve you 24 hours a day?" The other soldiers did not speak. Zhanlu of the sharp sword answered while eating.
"Ah! You have to do it yourself?" Upon hearing this, the woman immediately showed a look of disgust.
"No, they don't need the normal three meals, but midnight snacks are beyond the scope of three meals. If you want to eat them, you have to make them yourself." Other soldiers also spoke up.
"It's the end of the world now. It's already good enough that people are willing to provide the ingredients. Do you still expect them to prepare them and serve them to you?"
As she listened to their words, the woman's face turned pale and blue.
"Well, comrade, we just came down from Kyoto and haven't had dinner yet. Can you see if you can find someone to cook something for us?" Mediterranean looked at the soldier closest to him and asked.
The soldier was stunned. He didn't know how to do it either. They were all from the same team and had agreed that no one would contribute, and then they would eat together in the cafeteria.
"I can't do that either. The people who can have already left."
"Let me do it. The three of you have come from far away and must have worked hard. In fact, there is no need to be so anxious. The mutant plants will not escape from the Ji family base. It is useless for you to come so early, and you will not suffer much. Why bother?"
Zhanlu, who had already finished eating, got up and went into the kitchen.
He also saw that these people were indeed working hard. Although he did not understand some things, they were guests after all. Even if they came in the middle of the night, he could not be too unreasonable.
"Can I have noodles?" Zhan Lu asked.
All three nodded.
But when they saw that Zhan Lu took out instant noodles, their faces changed.
"Noodles?" The expression on the woman's face was so forced.
"Is it not possible?" Zhan Lu paused holding the noodles and asked in confusion.
"The dough tastes better if it's freshly kneaded." The expression on the woman's face turned into disgust.
"It looks like you three are not hungry, and you probably have never been hungry. I don't know how to knead dough. Since what you said makes so much sense, why don't you do it yourself?" As a southerner, Zhan Lu was very confused. What's wrong with instant noodles? Why can't they be eaten?
If it was before the end of the world, it would be fine if you were picky, but now you are lucky to have something to eat. If you are still picky, then you will starve.
Zhanlu put the noodles back to their original place and was about to give up his seat to them.
"Forget it, why don't you make us three servings of fried rice?" Mediterranean continued.
Zhan Lu patiently took out the iron pot that had been washed and put away, and took out the leftover cold rice from the refrigerator.
"Hey, wait, we don't eat fried rice made with cold rice. We have to use freshly cooked rice that has cooled down before frying it. It can't be the rice that's been put in the refrigerator." Seeing Zhan Lu take out the overnight rice from the refrigerator.
Mediterranean quickly stopped it.
Zhan Lu couldn't help but curse in his heart.
The soldiers watching were also dumbfounded.
It’s good enough that someone cooks for you, why are you so picky?
But Zhanlu was also glad that he hadn't started yet. If his pot had already heated up, that would have been troublesome.
So he put everything back again.
"Since you three are not hungry, stop playing tricks on us. Come on yourselves." Zhan Lu clapped his hands and came out of the kitchen.
The other members of Li Jian also looked at the three people with confusion.
I can't believe Kyoto would send these three weirdos down here to do research.
"Hey, it's not about your attitude, believe it or not, I'm going to complain about you!" the woman immediately shouted again.
"I'm waiting for your complaints." Zhan Lu said, let out a long breath, and walked out of the kitchen.
