Chapter 185 They Dig into the Base
Wang Jinyang and others turned pale in an instant and raised their heads stiffly.
This moment has finally arrived.
Even though Wang Jinyang pretended to be as confident as ever, his legs went weak at this moment.
Fearing that he would keep the other person waiting for too long, he casually pointed at one and said, "You go first!"
The person who was called out was a woman. She was trembling all over and her face was pale. "I, I..."
"What do you mean by 'I'?! Just go when I tell you to! Do you still want your whole family to survive?"
There was no way out. The woman had no choice but to grit her teeth, get up and walk out.
Most of the people in this area are temporary workers who come to help. There are so many people walking back and forth that the woman's action is not noticeable.
Wang Jinyang and his group stopped moving stiffly at this moment, their eyes following the woman's departure. Even after she walked out of their sight, they still maintained the same posture.
"Hey, you're temporary workers too, right?" Suddenly, a middle-aged woman looked at them with dissatisfaction. "We're temporary workers here to help build the base. The base director is considerate of us, so he gives us the corresponding pay and meals. You can't be so lazy! You're digging into the base's corners!"
Wang Jinyang was startled, but when he realized what was happening, he immediately said angrily, "What are you talking about, you bitch? Which eye of yours saw us slacking off?"
The middle-aged woman shouted at the top of her voice, "I saw it all. I've been right next to you from the beginning. It's been hours, and there are so many of you, and you haven't even picked up a load of garbage. What else can you say but lazy?"
The sound quickly attracted the attention of those around them. They all stood on the middle-aged woman's side and accused Wang Jinyang and his group, "I saw it too. He kept leaning on his shovel and looking off into the distance. It's obvious he's here to collect points."
Seeing more and more people gathering around him, Wang Jinyang was so anxious that sweat broke out on his forehead. He didn't dare to argue with them anymore. He bent down and apologized, "No, sorry, we didn't mean to do that. We just felt a little unwell, so we wanted to take a break."
But the old lady's desire to protect the base's assets wasn't easily swayed. "If you're not feeling well, just go back and rest. Why are you still working out here? You're not only trying to earn base points, you're also trying to get the base hospital's medical resources for free."
Seeing that Wang Jinyang and the others were about to be forced to leave, Wang Anjun, who was passing by, came over and asked: "What's going on? Why are you all gathered here?"
Seeing Wang Anjun, Wang Jinyang and others became even more nervous. Some of them even sat down on the ground because their legs were weak. Only the old man's cloudy eyes suddenly lit up.
The explosives have been delivered, why hasn't the base taken any action yet? Could it be that they haven't received the message passed on by those two children?
He was extremely anxious and tried to get closer to Wang Anjun, but when he met Wang Anjun's gaze, his heart, which had been tense all the time, suddenly relaxed.
At the same time, the middle-aged woman finished her complaint against Wang Jinyang and the others. "Captain Wang, we absolutely cannot tolerate this kind of corrupt officials in our base. If we don't deal with them, there will be another one. The base commander cares so much about us, we will not allow anyone to undermine our base!"
The sonorous and powerful summary was supported by the people around him. They looked at Wang Jinyang and others as if they were class enemies.
Wang Anjun was moved by the enthusiasm of the people at the base. If he didn't have a mission tonight, he would really want to make an example of them to scare the lazy parasites hiding in the crowd.
"Sister, I've accepted your report. Don't worry, we won't tolerate such things." He then looked at Wang Jinyang with a stern face and said, "Are you sure you're not feeling well? If so, go back and rest immediately. The base commander has issued a notice that no injured or sick personnel are allowed to work on the site!"
"No, no, no, I, we are not feeling uncomfortable." Wang Jinyang quickly shook his head and said, "I, we were wrong. We won't do it again in the future. We promise!"
You absolutely cannot leave that place. This is the most secluded area in the entire base.
The old man knew the base was going to take action tonight. If he missed this opportunity, he didn't know when he would have another chance. He couldn't wait to bring his family here for a reunion. He immediately said, "Captain Wang, we accept the punishment. We will continue to work here tonight, but we won't be receiving any points or meals. This is our punishment. How do you think?"
Wang Anjun simply said, "Okay! I hope you can remember this lesson and not make the same mistake again."
When everyone present heard that they had worked for nothing all night, they immediately felt relieved and dispersed under Wang Anjun's arrangement.
Seeing that everyone around him had left, Wang Jinyang sat down on the ground and panted, "Old man, not bad. I'll give you credit for this."
This time they didn't dare to be lazy. They honestly moved bricks and picked up garbage while waiting for the woman to come back.
Finally, when their anxiety reached its peak, the woman came back.
Wang Jinyang: "How is it? Where are your things? Why did you come back empty-handed?"
As if she had finally accomplished something important, the woman's mood seemed to be much better than before: "Didn't you ask me to put my things in the designated places? I have already put them there."
Wang Jinyang didn't doubt it at all. Instead, he said in relief, "So you've already completed your mission. I was wondering why it took you so long to come back. Not bad!"
Then he pointed to another person and said, "It's your turn!"
The designated man's face paled, and he asked the person who had completed the task, "What did you say when you carried the things in? Didn't anyone suspect anything?"
The woman lowered her head and whispered, "No, I just swiped my pass when I went in. No one stopped me."
Hearing this, Wang Jinyang thought about how every time he ran into people from Haichuan Base, he never seemed to be asked any questions. He patted the man and said, "She's right. As long as you have a pass, there's basically no one at the gate asking questions."
The man set off and came back in less than half an hour.
After coming back, he glanced at the woman, then said nothing and lowered his head to work.
One after another, soon everyone completed their tasks.
Wang Jinyang was very satisfied with this. He looked around and then deliberately said loudly: "I'm hungry. Let's go back and eat something before coming back."
Having said that, he took the lead and left.
After leaving, they did not return to the base, but turned a few corners, then followed the uneven ruins and finally arrived at the other side of the river from the base.
At this moment, there was a car parked there, and two tall men were leaning against the car.
Seeing this, Wang Jinyang hurried over and said, "Brother, the mission is completed, let's go!"
