Chapter 42 The carriage is in place
Please name the new site.
Hearing the sound, the whole Jiang family looked towards where Jiang Mingchen pointed.
Through the windows of the carriage and through the glass windows on the wall of the station in the distance, they did see people moving around in the waiting hall not far away.
Jiang Dong narrowed his eyes, trying to see more closely. "What is that? Is it a human or a zombie?"
It's too far away and there's glass blocking the view, so I can't see clearly.
Jiang Qian had already picked up her nephew's binoculars and stared at them for a while before saying, "There are people and zombies, and it seems they are fighting."
Huang Liping's heart tightened when she heard this. "What's going on? Are there a lot of zombies?"
"It doesn't look like there are many..." Jiang Qian said, "But the view here is limited, so maybe there are a lot..."
Jiang Weimin leaned over another window and tried to look out. "When I parked here yesterday, I didn't see any people or zombies here?"
"What could you see in the darkness yesterday?" Huang Liping asked. "What's the situation now? Do we need to go down and help?"
Jiang Qian shook her head, watched the people in her sight walk into the waiting hall, and put down the telescope in front of her.
"It's over. The zombies have been dealt with and they went into the waiting room."
Huang Liping heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this, "That's good."
Although we are strangers who have never met each other, I always hope that everyone is doing well.
Jiang Dong took the telescope, looked outside, and asked, "Are we still going out?"
Huang Liping: "There's no telling how many zombies there are out there. It's strange that we're still here, right?"
"If someone accidentally sees us, it's easy to associate us with this car."
Jiang Dong: "What should we do? We have to go down and put up the station sign, right? Otherwise, the train won't be able to run, and we won't be able to leave, right?"
Huang Liping was silent for a moment. "Then let's wait a little longer, at least until there's no one around. We can't let anyone find out that we're in control of this car. That would be too dangerous!"
Jiang Qian knew that what her mother said made sense, but she couldn't keep waiting like this. Who knew when there would be no one outside?
She looked at the bus stop sign in her hand and thought to herself, it would be great if this sign could be put up outside without them having to go out!
And the next second after she thought of this, the bus stop sign in her hand suddenly emitted a soft light, and then disappeared from her hand!
Jiang Qian shook hands, feeling the empty and light touch in her hands, her heart filled with disbelief.
The other people who watched the sign in her hand disappear also opened their mouths in surprise.
“…Gone?”
"Just disappeared like that?"
"What's going on?"
Jiang Qian shook her head. She was also confused and had no idea what was going on.
She carefully recalled what happened before the bus stop sign disappeared, and suddenly, a light bulb went off in her head.
She walked quickly to the window and saw a station sign on the platform not far away.
At the same time, a window popped up with the bus stop sign and system page.
Please name the new site.
The other members of the Jiang family just watched Jiang Qian walk towards the window, and their eyes followed her out. They were surprised and happy to see that the bus stop sign had been put up outside.
No one thought that the bus stop sign could be set up like this.
Jiang Dong said happily, "That's great! From now on, we won't have to get off the bus when we set up bus stops! It can reduce a lot of risks!"
Although the others didn't say anything, they were also very satisfied.
Jiang Qian was naturally more satisfied.
After she named the newly set station "B City Railway Station", the first route of the train was set up, and the system page that had previously had many restrictions changed again.
The first is the train route module. Two set stations are clearly marked on the map that originally served as the background, and the stations are connected by a not-so-obvious golden line.
The train icon in the upper right corner can also be clicked, which displays the information of the new station that needs to be filled in. However, because the conditions for setting up new stations in the system have not yet been met, no input can be made in those blank boxes.
But the biggest change is in the third train operation settings module.
A pop-up window popped up when a module that was originally not clickable was opened.
[You have completed the initial route settings. The system will give you a free initial carriage. Would you like to install and connect it now?]
【whether】
Jiang Qian didn't hesitate this time and clicked [Yes], and the system screen changed immediately.
The 3D structural diagram of the train, which originally appeared when the train had just completed its primary upgrade and renovation, reappeared. It can be clearly seen that there is an extra section at the back of the original carriage.
Jiang Qian enlarged the back part and saw that the door at the end of the original carriage, which could not be opened somehow, was the passage leading to the new carriage.
She walked quickly to the end of the carriage. The door, which had been unable to open, slowly opened a crack as she approached. The scene on the other side also entered the eyes of everyone in the Jiang family through this door.
Behind the previously empty carriage, another new carriage was connected through that door.
Jiang Qian looked at the data of the new carriage from the system.
The new carriage is thirty meters long, with upper and lower doors at both ends.
There was also an entrance for magic crystals and a display screen at the door, the same as the ones they had seen in the cab before.
Except for a small restroom next to the door at the end of the carriage, the rest of the carriage is almost entirely filled with rows of tightly packed seats.
There are twenty windows on both sides of the carriage, with four windows in each row of seats, for a total of twenty-five rows, or one hundred seats.
The only difference from common train carriages is that these seats all face one direction and are all transparent.
Jiang Dong touched it curiously, but felt that the seat sank when he pressed it, and then gave him an upward rebound force.
He repeated this action several times, and after careful observation, he realized, "This seat looks like a sponge and jelly!"
His words attracted the attention of the whole family.
Jiang Weimin and Huang Liping also touched it and found that the seat was indeed soft, but very elastic, and they were amazed for a moment.
"Is this some new material?"
"It's so soft, it must be very comfortable to sit on!"
Jiang Mingchen had already sat down out of curiosity. The seat underneath changed shape freely with his movements, which made his eyes light up.
The whole family was in the carriage looking at the novelty, only Jiang Qian continued to explore the newly acquired carriage in the system.
After getting a general understanding of the carriage, she closed the 3D display and returned to the train operation settings page.
The page that was empty just now now has content displayed.
【Carriage type: ordinary car】
Passenger capacity: 100
[Other business items: None]
[Currently available routes: Airport Station - City B Railway Station]
[Please set a reasonable ticket price for this travel section]
【_____Magic Crystal】
Jiang Qian thought about it and filled in the number 2 in the blank ticket price column.
One magic crystal can allow a carriage to travel 100 kilometers. They currently have two carriages, and the cost of each trip is about two magic crystals.
This arrangement makes the cost of riding low for passengers and not prohibitive for them. As for them, as long as they can carry one passenger per trip, they can recover their costs, and the rest is profit.
After she finished setting it up, she was thinking about how to attract customers when she was pulled and stumbled.
The family members who were originally looking around on the left and right sides of the carriage were now hurriedly walking towards the front carriage.
She was about to ask the reason when she turned around and saw two people not far from the car window.
…
After Liang Jing and Qi Hang emerged from the dispatch room, they worked together to eliminate the zombies still lingering in the waiting room. However, the fierce battle also exhausted their already limited physical strength.
The two men did not sit down to rest, but went straight into the small supermarket in the waiting room with weapons.
The small supermarket at the train station in City B is not big, but it contains a lot of things, at least more than enough for the two of them.
They found some high-calorie and easy-to-store food, stuffed it into their backpacks, ate some more to replenish their energy, and then walked towards the entrance gate.
It’s not that they don’t want to bring more things, but they anticipate that there might be a tough battle after they go out, so they dare not bring too many things for fear of getting in the way.
But less than ten minutes after they went out, they had to go back to the waiting room.
There were still many zombies that were thought to have dispersed near the station. They rushed over with roars as soon as they saw them.
They had not yet found a working car and were forced to retreat to the train station again.
Fortunately, the double-layer glass door at the entrance was quite strong, keeping all the zombies following behind out.
But looking at the circle of zombies surrounding the glass door, Liang Jing and Qi Hang looked at each other and both knew that they would not be able to go out through the front door, at least for the time being.
But instead of a front door, there is a back door.
The two men discussed it again and walked towards the platform behind the station with their backpacks on their backs, trying to walk along the tracks behind to bypass the zombies gathered nearby.
But what they didn't expect was that as soon as they stood on the platform, they saw a train parked on the tracks.
The silver-white train body seemed to be glowing in the rising sun, shining in the eyes of those who saw it.
But Liang Jing and Qi Hang were not surprised when they saw it, but subconsciously took half a step back.
It was simply because the nightmare that the previously opened train carriage had brought them was too profound.
The two exchanged glances, neither wanting to get closer. However, to leave the station, they had to pass by the platform next to the train. With no other options, they could only try to stay as far away from the train as possible and slowly move along the wall.
The Jiang family members who had already returned to the lounge were puzzled by the two people's evasive actions. If they had not seen the appearance of the train from outside, they would have thought that their train was some kind of monster.
Jiang Dong originally thought that the two people who came might be passengers on his train, but seeing their attitude of wanting to retreat, he became uncertain again.
He looked at Jiang Qian and asked for her opinion, "Sister, do you think we should get off the car and tell them?"
If he let these two prospective passengers, who were right in front of him, run away like this, he would probably regret it for the rest of his life.
【Author’s words】
It has been completed. The next chapter should be on Friday, but the time is uncertain.
Because I am afraid that I will get carried away while writing and go astray, I always take half a day or a day to review each chapter after I finish it. I will only publish it if I don’t think there are any problems.
So I usually save a chapter in my draft box in advance. But this week, because I went to the hospital with my mother, my writing schedule was disrupted. I posted all the drafts in the past two days, but I haven't written any new ones yet [covering my face] So I'm currently running around with no drafts. Please wait for me to save some drafts for the next chapter.
There was a small accident this week, and my writing schedule was disrupted. I was stuck in writing again these two days. I reviewed the previous works and made some minor revisions. I didn’t write much, so I’ll put up a thousand words first. I will make up for the rest before tomorrow morning. Sorry, everyone!
