The next morning, Lu Yuan woke up early because he had an important thing to do that day.
Carrying a shoulder bag, I arrived at the patrol team's duty station.
As soon as he arrived at the duty station, he saw two members of the disciplinary team immediately sit up from their chairs and walk straight toward Lu Yuan.
Du Heng whispered a reminder to Lu, "Brother Lu, don't be nervous. They might need to search you. You didn't bring any contraband, did you?"
After speaking, Du Heng glanced at the shoulder bag behind Lu Yuan.
"Of course not, didn't you tell me that yesterday? Don't worry!"
"That's good!"
Then, Du Heng quickly stepped forward and raised his hands high to indicate that he was not carrying any contraband and posed no threat to them.
Lu Yuan followed behind, raising his hands as well. These members of the disciplinary squad wielded considerable power. If anyone approached, they would first issue a warning, and if the person continued to advance, they would open fire. Even if someone was killed, all they had to do was explain to their superiors that the person might be in danger.
The two members of the disciplinary team nodded in satisfaction, and only waved their hands after getting closer and seeing the two men clearly.
"Alright! Put your hand down!"
One of the disciplinary team members walked over and whispered a few words in Du Heng's ear.
Du Heng quickly took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and secretly slipped it into the other person's pocket.
The other party patted Du Heng on the shoulder with satisfaction, and then looked at Lu Yuan carefully.
"You've come looking for us?"
Lu Yuan nodded: "That's right! It's some official business!"
"Alright! Come with me!"
Then the other party resumed his previous arrogant demeanor, returned to the table at the duty station, took out a small notebook, and then took out a gold pen, twisted it open, and asked.
"Tell me! What's wrong?"
After speaking, he raised his hand to look at the watch on his wrist. Lu Yuan recognized it; it was an extremely expensive tourbillon watch in the world. He also had several in his dimensional space, each of which was worth millions, or even tens of millions. However, in the post-apocalyptic world, such an expensive watch couldn't even be exchanged for half a loaf of bread.
"Oh, it's like this, someone in our camp has gone missing!"
"Huh? Someone's gone missing? When did this happen?"
"last night!"
"Was there no investigation?"
Lu Yuan shook his head: "No, we don't have the right to leave here, so..."
"Okay! Fill out the form and you can go! We'll let you know if we find that person! But with such tight security here, they must be in one of the other groups!"
"Okay! By the way, if that person doesn't want to come back, does that mean we don't need to accept them?"
The other person glanced at Lu Yuan: "Of course! But you'll be losing a laborer! Think it over! Right now, all the other camps are looking to increase their numbers!"
"Haha! No need for that! We don't need any more people right now!"
"Alright! We'll let you know when we have any news. As long as you agree, we'll talk to them!"
"Thank you so much!"
Lu Yuan took the form, filled in the information, and handed it to the other party.
One of the patrol officers who had been conducting the search came in, glanced at Lu Yuan without saying anything, and then walked up to the person opposite Lu Yuan and whispered a few words in his ear.
A look of surprise flashed across the other person's face, and they couldn't help but glance at Lu Yuan.
"Ahem! I didn't expect you guys to get pretty good stuff when the food was distributed!" The other person lit a cigarette in a calm tone and then glanced at Lu Yuan.
"Luckily, we brought quite a lot with us!"
"Oh! I see! By the way, I've never heard of you before. Aren't you from the black market?"
"Of course not, I have no connection with the black market, I just used to hoard some food!"
Seeing that Lu Yuan had no intention of showing him any respect, and despite his own bluntness, the other party still didn't get the message, which made the squad leader of the disciplinary team a little unhappy.
The other person glanced at him slightly, and then his tone suddenly dropped a few degrees.
"Don't run around with your stuff unless it's absolutely necessary! If someone spots you, our patrol team won't be responsible for getting it back!"
Lu Yuan sneered inwardly. He just wanted to test the other party's bottom line and see if they were interested in what he had brought. Obviously, after several conversations, Lu Yuan felt that the other party was particularly interested in what he had brought. He had already guessed it, after all, his shoulder bag contained some aged wine and some cigarettes from before the apocalypse. Those were his own stockpiles, which he was reluctant to use.
After taking a few puffs of his cigarette, the other person spat out a mouthful of thick black phlegm. This was clearly the activated charcoal used to filter e-liquid. This activated charcoal doesn't taste very good, and after being burned at high temperatures, it produces a strong charcoal smell. What's even more unacceptable is that after smoking, your mouth is full of black phlegm, which is extremely uncomfortable.
Lu Yuan smiled and said, "Brother, to be honest, I brought these things here as a gift for you! The work of the disciplinary team is very hard, and you have put in a lot of effort. I have never known how to express my gratitude, so I thought I would take this opportunity to express my heartfelt thanks!"
The other person was taken aback: "What?"
However, the other party immediately realized what was happening and looked at Lu Yuan with a feigned anger: "You know that we members of the disciplinary team are not allowed to accept bribes! How could you break the law? Didn't you hear that when you came in?"
