Chapter 041 Chapter 41 Happiness
Jiang Ke was still a little confused.
He didn't know why the deputy leader suddenly became furious yesterday. At that moment, he was really scared and felt uneasy when he came back.
I feel really uncomfortable keeping this matter in my heart, but I just can't say it out loud.
At this moment, Chen Ting came over, and the two of them happened to be allies, after all, they were both deputy leaders' people.
So, Jiang Ke looked at the person walking in front of him, and after confirming that the distance was far enough, he lowered his voice and told the deputy leader about what he had reported to yesterday.
The main reason why the task of reporting to the deputy leader was given to Jiang Ke was that Jiang Ke had already been exposed.
One of them was exposed in the open, while Chen Ting hid in the dark. This was what the two had agreed upon in advance.
After hearing what Jiang Ke said and did after he went to the deputy leader's residence, Chen Ting couldn't help but frown, and couldn't figure out what went wrong.
"Otherwise, I'll try to contact Secretary Liu tonight and ask him."
Jiang Ke hesitated for a while, but finally nodded. It was better to get clear information than to keep worrying about it.
After a few words, the two of them deliberately kept their distance, just like everyone else on the team.
Soon, they arrived at the venue. At this time, many people from the outbound teams had gathered there. Those who could arrive so quickly were all training at the training base.
There were many outbound teams at the door walking towards this side.
All the outbound teams from the entire base gathered there. The huge square was crowded with people, so crowded that the entire venue was almost full.
Wang Ji, the chief instructor who coordinated the entire outbound team, stood at the front of the dense crowd. He glanced at the people below and shouted with a loud speaker, "Everyone, stand at attention!"
The neatly arranged crowd stood up straight with their legs together.
"At ease!"
There was no noise in the whole venue, only the sound of legs moving in unison.
"Captain, report!"
A strong and loud voice immediately rang out from below.
"one!"
"two!"
"three!"
The speech was crisp and clear, and each captain's count was compact.
The numbers are reported according to the order of the teams. Team 1 should report 1, Team 3 should report 3, and Team 188 should report 188 after 187.
Soon, the number reached 10,000 and then stopped.
The entire base, with 10,000 outbound teams, has all arrived. Those teams that were previously wiped out by the beast tide have been reorganized during this period, so the 10,000 outbound teams are still 10,000.
Wang Ji, "Now, each team captain will count their players to confirm whether there are any players who are absent."
Upon hearing this, Wang Yuan immediately began to count the number of people in the team.
Their team had been supplemented by ten people. He took a quick look and confirmed that the other nine people except himself had arrived.
Three minutes later, another team started to report loudly, "Team one, all ten people, are here!"
Those who come after also report according to the number of people in their team.
It was several hours later when the ten thousand teams finished reporting. The sky was dark and it was almost dark.
At this time, a car drove into the training base.
The driver got out of the car and came to Wang Ji to ask, "Chief Instructor, let me confirm with you first. Of the entire external team, there are currently 10,000 teams. 8,000 of them are fully staffed with ten people, 117 teams are with nine people, 239 teams are with eight people, 500 teams are with seven people, and then there are teams with six people, for a total of 1,144 teams."
Wang Ji listened carefully, and nodded as the driver finished speaking: "Yes."
Compared to the others who were confused and had no idea what they were going to do today, he, as the chief instructor of the field team, was very clear about it.
The driver continued, "The entire outbound team currently has a total of 93,329 personnel, including one chief instructor, one deputy instructor, and 2,500 training instructors, for a total of 95,329 personnel."
In addition to their usual self-training, the outbound teams also receive intensive training from training instructors from time to time. One training instructor will lead four teams.
Although Wang Ji was not very good at arithmetic, he still knew the number of people under his command. He confirmed that the driver was correct and continued to nod.
The members of the outbound team who were closer to Wang Ji and the driver pricked up their ears to listen, but after hearing what the driver said, they became a little confused.
What's going on? Are they still counting people?
Even if they were to count the entire base's population, they wouldn't have to do it now, right? After all, the census had just been done, and there had been no missions during this period.
"The boxes contain one thousand eggs each. The outbound team has ninety-five boxes total. We're counting 329 eggs individually. Is that okay?"
Wang Ji nodded, "No problem."
The driver smiled and said, "Chief Instructor, could you please ask some people to come over and help? It's too slow for me to move all these things by myself."
"Eggs? Did I hear correctly? They just said eggs?"
"Ah, the person next door to me was taken away yesterday. I didn't know what happened at the time, but after they came back, I heard that they seemed to be eating eggs. They said they were called braised eggs and they were very fragrant."
"So, now we're all going to be given braised eggs?"
"I don't know. I haven't even had instant noodles yet. Every day when I go there, the line is already very long."
"Don't mention it. The day before yesterday morning, I went to line up at three o'clock, but there was a really long line in front of me. I waited from three in the morning until three in the afternoon before I could eat instant noodles. And you have to say, they tasted really good. I didn't expect people before the apocalypse could eat such delicious food. One bite felt like I was surrounded by happiness."
The people below were talking incessantly, their voices growing louder and louder. They were obviously excited, and they were all looking at the car with fiery eyes.
The captains of each team immediately maintained order in the team and asked everyone to calm down.
Wang Ji: "Teams one to ten, step out."
The ten teams in the front immediately stepped forward and stood out in unison.
Wang Ji waved his hand and said, "Go over and help move the boxes down."
"yes!"
The ten teams were immediately excited and ran over to help move the boxes down. One box after another was carried to Wang Ji and stacked up.
The driver loaded ninety-six boxes into the car, but instead of asking them to take out the last box, he counted three hundred and twenty-nine eggs and took them out.
Wang Ji asked the ten teams to return to their groups, and then asked ninety-five training instructors to step out, with each instructor responsible for a box, and they were responsible for distributing the salt-baked eggs in the box.
Each team going out will come up one by one in the order of their team names to receive the salt-baked eggs.
Team 188 was at the front of the entire outbound team, but they had to wait a long time before it was their turn, and it was already dark by then.
Wang Yuan carried ten eggs and led the team away.
Chen Ting was very excited, her eyes fixed on the ten eggs in Wang Yuan's hands. Ten eggs were not a lot, especially since the eggs didn't look very big, and she estimated that she could eat them in one bite.
But, this is an egg!
I've seen eggs in novels and imagined them countless times, but I never believed what they would feel like when I actually put them in my mouth.
In the entire base, there are probably few people who have not fantasized about traveling back to the end of the world and eating all kinds of delicious food described in novels and seen in pictures.
If she hadn't accepted the task from the deputy leader, she would have rushed to eat instant noodles as soon as she knew about the appearance of instant noodles. Why would she wait until now?
But after joining this team, the entire team became training maniacs. The amount and time of training were much greater than when she was in the training camp.
So much so that sometimes she even suspected that Captain Wang Yuan did it on purpose, intending to tire out these newcomers first.
During this period, in addition to trying every possible way to complete the task assigned by Secretary Liu, her mind was full of instant noodles.
Although she still couldn't eat instant noodles at this moment, she saw the egg, a living, real egg right in front of her!
Seeing the attitude of the people in the square, Wang Yuan simply took his teammates back to the 188 team training room.
In fact, Chen Ting was not the only one who was excited at this moment. Everyone's eyes could not be taken away from the egg in the captain's hand. Even Wang Yuan could not control himself. Saliva was secreted frantically in his mouth, his Adam's apple rolled, and he swallowed saliva almost like drinking water.
Wang Yuan stood in the training room with a stern face and said, "Okay, everyone stand in a row now."
Lin Yin and the others immediately lined up neatly in a horizontal row. Although they all stood straight, they couldn't help but look at the egg in the captain's hand and swallowed their saliva.
The sound of them swallowing was particularly obvious in the quiet training room.
Even Jiang Ke, who had looked listless before, now had bright eyes, without any trace of his previous absent-mindedness.
Wang Yuan's expression relaxed, and he walked over with a smile and distributed the eggs to his teammates one by one.
The last one left is his.
The salt-baked eggs are vacuum-packed and the packaging is very hard. There are also some plastic products in the base, but very few because it is difficult to obtain glue in the dense forest. The glue also contains highly toxic substances, and there is currently no way to completely decompose the toxins.
Therefore, imported items can only be made of other materials and plastic products are not allowed to be used.
Wang Yuan found a small notch on the edge of the packaging bag, which was obviously left so that people could open the package easily. He tore the bag open easily.
In an instant, a rich fragrance wafted out.
In fact, even though it was sealed, there was still a faint smell wafting out, but there were too many people in the square before, so the smell was very subtle and not noticeable at all.
As soon as the package was opened, the fragrance was overwhelming and very strong.
Wang Yuan couldn't help but take a breath, and his saliva almost flowed out when he smelled the fragrance.
He quickly closed his mouth and swallowed the excessive saliva in his mouth. Then he carefully put the egg into his mouth and took a light bite.
The chewy egg white kept sinking inwards under the bite of the teeth, and then I felt a clear bounce, and the teeth had sunk into the egg white.
The salty and fragrant taste had taken over his taste buds, and he subconsciously began to chew.
tasty!
Wang Yuan squinted his eyes, feeling that from childhood to adulthood, in all these years, he had never been so happy. He was as happy as lying on the harmless grass on a cold winter day, enjoying the warm and soft winter sunshine.
There is no danger, no mutated plants or animals, and no fighting.
Ping Jingxi covered her mouth with her hand to prevent her sobs from leaking out, but tears fell without warning.
It can be said that no outgoing team can keep its original members unchanged.
The same goes for their 188 team.
Ping Jingxi is three years younger than Wang Yuan. When Wang Yuan joined the 188 team, Ping Jingxi was still in the training camp.
She still remembered that when she joined Team 188, Wang Yuan was the only one left in the team, so there were nine people joining Team 188 together with Ping Jingxi.
Except for Wang Yuan, all the others are newcomers. In this situation, it is impossible for Wang Yuan to lead these newcomers out for training alone. Therefore, the base arranges another team composed of all senior members to lead the entire Team 188.
Wang Yuan naturally became the captain of Team 188, of course also because of his outstanding strength.
On his first mission, Ping Jingxi witnessed very realistically how his teammates, who were originally still alive, were torn into pieces by mutant animals. Blood and flesh flew everywhere, and the scene was so tragic that it was terrifying.
In fact, she has only been a member of Team 188 for 12 years. Because she is the team's doctor, her teammates consciously take extra care of her and protect her, so she can live safely until now.
But those who had joined Team 188 with her had already died in the dense forest...
She no longer remembered their names, but she still remembered clearly how they died and how their bodies were torn into pieces.
