monster?
In Zhu Ning's original apocalyptic world, all human cities have been breached, and hordes of zombies roam the streets. Want to see new monsters? Just step outside and get close to them.
Fang Ying's expression was quite interesting. She probably hadn't expected to hear this answer, and for a moment her expression was a little strange. How could a newcomer be so bold?
She was supposed to follow the protocol and give a lengthy explanation of what monsters were, then play some videos and present some data.
The listeners might be overwhelmed, confused, or frightened, and Fang Ying was also responsible for calming the employees. But Zhu Ning had none of that. She was completely at ease, talking about monsters as if she were talking about wholesale cabbages at her doorstep.
Fang Ying was silent for two seconds, a rare moment, and continued with the procedure, "Are you afraid of corpses?"
Zhu Ning said conservatively: "Not really."
She had seen too many corpses before, human, zombie, and some unknown creatures. She saw corpses as if they were street lights.
Fang Ying paused. As expected of "it"'s chosen one, regardless of his abilities, Zhu Ning was at least full of courage. Having already been screened by "it" once, Fang Ying was just going through the motions.
Fang Ying: "It's good to be brave. You can start working now."
Zhu Ning: "...So simple?"
She thought there was some kind of test.
Fang Ying: "Our work is not very difficult from a technical point of view. The only requirement is courage, fearlessness of blood or nausea, high stress resistance and a good mental state."
Zhu Ning paused and asked in a low voice, "Are you collecting corpses?"
Fang Ying: "You can understand it this way, we need to clean up the scene."
Sure enough, asking her if she was afraid of monsters and then corpses meant she had to deal with them. Zhu Ning simply understood that, first, there was some kind of mysterious monster in this world, but she didn't need to know what it was.
Second, someone needs to collect the monster's body.
The job wasn't difficult, and I could start without an interview. Since joining was so easy, it must be the support unit. This kind of work generally didn't require direct confrontation; you just had to follow the main group and pick up the slack.
Zhu Ning had lived a life of near death every day in her previous life, so this job was too easy for her.
"Can't you recruit people with such a high salary?" Zhu Ning asked.
Five thousand Singapore dollars for three hours, and according to the website's algorithm, the daily salary is over ten thousand.
In the wasteland world, when a large number of jobs are replaced by robots, once this job is released, people will scramble for it.
Fang Ying sighed, "Not many people meet this qualification, and many people simply can't handle it. Our longest-serving employee has only worked for eight and a half years, and many people change careers after just three months."
Zhu Ning: "Why?"
Fang Ying looked embarrassed. "It's easy to go crazy if you work for a long time, so we are always recruiting people."
Zhu Ning: "Crazy?"
"Yes," Fang Ying said with a wry smile, "Most people can't handle it mentally, but we monitor our employees' health. If you can't handle it anymore, the center will intervene and stop you. But don't worry, we won't force you to work. We will provide medical treatment for any injuries, and you will receive a monthly pension after you leave."
It sounds cruel, but it also reveals the warmth from the organization.
"So our probation period is only one day, and we can tell whether we can do the job after one day," said Fang Ying.
Zhu Ning asked, "Where's the robot?"
It sounds like there's some kind of mental field, and if humans are affected, robots should be fine.
Fang Ying: "It will short-circuit."
Zhu Ning: “?”
Fang Ying: "I can't say more. It's better for you to experience it yourself."
"To be honest, we are in urgent need of new people, but the work is confidential, so I have to make it clear to you." Fang Ying pushed a dozen contracts in front of her.
Zhu Ning took a look and found that the confidentiality contract did not list any specific terms. It probably just said that she had to keep what she saw confidential.
One contract was a probationary contract, used to protect Zhu Ning's basic rights, and the other was a safety agreement. The safety agreement was very long, a full twenty pages. Zhu Ning read it carefully, and there were several clauses that were of particular concern.
Article 11: The Federal Cleaning Center will be solely responsible for any injuries or deaths that occur during work and will pay triple compensation in accordance with Appendix 15.
Article 35: The federal government will be responsible for the lifelong disability of any person.
The security agreement contains some references to casualties.
"Is there any danger?" Zhu Ning asked.
"Yes, but the probability is not high, and you basically won't encounter it," Fang Ying said. "Generally speaking, when the cleaners enter, the place is already very clean."
After all, they weren't the vanguard; the dangers were borne by those who led the charge. In short, this was the most dangerous job, and it was the most suitable for Zhu Ning, a dangerous person.
Zhu Ning read all the terms and signed them without hesitation.
Since she has to do any job anyway, she might as well do one that pays well. She always likes to earn a month's salary in a day and then lie down for the remaining 29 days.
Fang Ying's bracelet rang, and someone was looking for her. She said to Zhu Ning, "Your work location today is Sewer A7. Someone will take you there later."
Fang Ying operated on her screen. "We use a prepaid system. Today's attendance salary will be transferred to you first, and the commission will be settled after you finish your work."
Ding Dong! Zhu Ning's wrist flashed, and five thousand Singapore dollars arrived in his account. He took the money right away? Zhu Ning felt like he was picking up money.
…
Zhu Ning received a one-hour simple employee training, commonly known as: "Zero Basics, One Hour to Teach You How to Sweep Garbage"
The training time is counted as working time, so this training video is particularly interesting.
Zhu Ning watched the video very seriously. After all, it was a somewhat dangerous job and he didn't dare to be careless.
In the teaching video, the corpses have turned into a bloody mess. From the video, it is almost impossible to tell what kind of monster it is. The only thing we know is that the official name is pollutant.
Zhu Ning memorized every step very well. She learned quickly. In short, it was just collecting corpses and cleaning up the battlefield, which was very simple for her.
After watching the video, someone took her to change into "work clothes". Unexpectedly, changing clothes was the most time-consuming, and it took her twenty minutes to do so.
This work suit looks very much like a motorcycle suit, pure black, with a fabric similar to leather, and she also wears a pure black helmet. It would not feel out of place for her to grab a motorcycle and ride away.
If you press the button on the chest, the inside of the work suit will inflate, which can resist the impact of monsters and increase cushioning. It can even supply oxygen to deal with extreme environments. After inflation, the appearance is more like a space suit.
Zhu Ning thought of the first rule of the cleaner's work code: no skin should be exposed.
Zhu Ning held the helmet in his arms without wearing it. There were two colleagues in front of him, the body collection team, bah, the cleaning team usually consists of three people, and if they bring a new person, they will arrange for a new person to go in.
"Li Nianchuan."
"Xu Meng."
The three of them exchanged names, and Xu Meng handed Zhu Ning a gun. "It's for self-protection. The permissions aren't activated yet. I'm carrying it for good luck."
Zhu Ning looked at the gun carefully and found that there was no bullet in the chamber.
"Air bullet," Li Nianchuan explained, "When you fire the gun, it instantly wraps the air around it and forms a bullet. It's quite lethal."
Li Nianchuan: "It's okay if you can't shoot, it's usually not used. Today you just need to learn the entire cleaning process."
Zhu Ning didn't dispute that she knew how to use a gun, and she tucked it into her waistband. Finally, Li Nianchuan handed her a cleaning backpack. Zhu Ning had seen it in a video; it was the tool she needed to sweep up trash.
"Come on," Xu Meng, the leader of the three-person team, said, "I'll take you to clean up the trash."
…
The workplace is said to be a sewer.
Zhu Ning was picked up by a special car and couldn't see outside. As a newcomer, he had no idea where he was going. He only knew that about an hour had passed and the car stopped at eight o'clock in the evening.
It was already dark, and two headlights were set up in the wasteland, and it was instantly as bright as day. The staff set up a cordon, and robots were maintaining order.
When Zhu Ning and the others went in, a group of people just came out.
The uniforms they wore were a little different, more like soft armor. If Zhu Ning was wearing a motorcycle suit, then they were wearing some Iron Man suits.
Zhu Ning had struggled on the brink of life and death in his previous life, so he could tell at a glance that these people were not ordinary. They clearly had a murderous aura. This was probably the rumored vanguard force.
Xu Meng led the team and stopped when he saw the armored soldiers to make way for them.
It seems that this group of armored soldiers are of higher rank than them. When the two sides met, the people from the cleaning center had to give in, so Zhu Ning had no choice but to stop. Unfortunately, the other side saw the three of them and walked straight past them without even saying hello.
Someone passed by them and chuckled softly, "Weaklings."
Li Nianchuan wanted to step forward to argue, but Xu Meng grabbed his arm and didn't let go until the armored soldiers left.
Xu Meng was already used to it, but Li Nianchuan was clearly indignant: "Why are you so arrogant?"
The three of them were wearing helmets and sharing the call. Zhu Ning asked, "Who are they?"
"Demon Hunter, specializes in killing pollutants." As expected of the captain, Xu Meng's voice was much calmer.
Li Nianchuan snorted, "It's all high-tech, the weapons are so good, and with the guidance of the combat package, anyone can go in."
In the high-tech era, humans are more dependent on technology. Under the influence of artificial intelligence and high-lethality weapons, soldiers are actually like chess pieces.
Zhu Ning asked curiously, "Why didn't you become a demon hunter?"
Li Nianchuan sighed, "The spiritual level is not high enough, and it is easy to be contaminated."
Zhu Ning said "oh", it seems that there are different conditions. Those with enough spirit level can go to the front to fight monsters, and those with insufficient level can clean up the garbage in the back.
Li Nianchuan seemed a little embarrassed. "But we are the ones who contain the pollutants. Without us, they would be doomed."
Zhu Ning agreed casually, "Yes, yes, we are the best."
Li Nianchuan heard her sarcasm and asked, "Do you want to be a demon hunter too?"
Most people think that demon hunters are cool and that garbage collectors are low-level and boring.
Zhu Ning flatly refused: "I don't want to."
What a joke, she has been fighting zombies all her life, and she just came here to be a salted fish.
Li Nianchuan: "..."
Zhu Ning's answer was too straightforward.
Li Nianchuan patted Zhu Ning on the shoulder and said, "Good colleague, there are not many cleaners like you who have such a strong sense of professional honor."
Zhu Ning: "Of course, I was attracted by our work at first sight."
Lots of money, little trouble, no danger, a dream lover.
"Alright," Xu Meng said, "Let's get down to business. Li Nianchuan will report on his work."
Li Nianchuan immediately put away his playful smile and read out the data: "E-level mission, contaminated area 2,500 cubic meters, the lowest pollution level is 30%, the highest is 55%, 16 pollutants, all of them have died."
Zhu Ning listened to the whole thing, only hearing the data, without any clear understanding. This thing is difficult to explain. Xu Meng said, "You will understand it if you go down and experience it."
The first time is a trial, the second time is familiar. Within three times, Zhu Ning will know all this data by heart.
"Zhu Ning, leave first." Xu Meng ordered, "I heard from Fang Ying that you are very brave, so it's a good opportunity to let you familiarize yourself with the scene."
Li Nianchuan thought about Zhu Ning being a girl, and suddenly became a bit gentlemanly: "How about I do it, she's still a newcomer."
Zhu Ning: "No, I can do it."
There was no need to be modest about such a small matter. There should have been a manhole cover in front of me, but the witcher had come once and dug a big hole.
There was a rope hanging nearby, meant for the cleaning team that would come later. Zhu Ning grabbed the rope and leaped down like a fish, deep underground.
Zhu Ning untied the ropes, which made a slight noise. Li Nianchuan and Xu Meng should have come down as well. Zhu Ning glanced at the scene from her helmet, which had night vision capabilities, and then she froze.
Although she had made some mental preparations for this matter, watched videos, listened to advice from predecessors, and had seen the world, she even used divergent thinking and added some imagination.
But at the moment, it seems conservative, her imagination is still too conservative.
The author has something to say:
Rule number one for cleaners: No skin should be exposed.
