Chapter 13
"Keeper Su, are you here to take a ride too? Where are you going?" Luo Shengfei quickly ignored Su Ci's accessories and asked in a familiar manner.
"Medical Department." Su Ci said.
"Oh, so you're going to pick up the two cubs from yesterday, right?" Luo Shengfei suddenly realized, and then patted his toolbox. "I just went to the Operations Department to do some repairs, and now I'm ready to go back."
Then he added, "It just so happens that the Medical Purification Department is right next to the Logistics Building. It's quite close. Do you need me to take you there?"
Su Ci thanked Luo Shengfei for his kindness, walked past him and sat down in the window seat in the back row.
The suspended buses are all two-seaters.
I originally thought that he would sit in seat one in Luo Shengfei's row, but I couldn't help but feel happy when I saw him. I quickly used my hands and feet to climb to the seat next to Su Ci and sat down.
Although he could climb onto the hover car before, he could not touch the objects in the car, and naturally it was impossible for him to sit on the chair like this.
He leaned back in his chair.
The soft seat sank slightly because of his touch. He was short, and when he leaned against the back of the chair, his two thin legs were forced to straighten.
Looking at the new shoes on his feet, No. 1 shook them happily.
However, this mood soon changed.
He looked at himself, then at the breeder next to him who was talking to Luo Shengfei. They were looking at each other at eye level and didn't need to tilt their heads like he did.
For the first time, a desire arose in the child's heart.
When will he grow up a bit? If he grows up to be as tall as the keeper, will he be more likely to focus on him?
However, it seemed that he had always looked like this since he regained consciousness, unlike the other cubs in the nursery who grew up over time...
Number One was thinking about his own things, but Su Ci, under the influence of Luo Shengfei, started chatting with him.
Of course, it was Luo Shengfei who was basically talking.
He took the initiative to explain the situation with 4583. It was impossible to repair it in just one night, so he took the opportunity to ask, "Keeper Su, was there any problem at the nursery last night?"
Su Ci blinked and looked at him somewhat confused.
Seeing this extremely beautiful breeder with such an expression, Luo Shengfei couldn't help but hesitate.
He asked uncertainly, "Didn't the alarm at the nursery go off last night?"
Su Ci remembered that when he was studying the red mist last night, he did trigger the alarm, but after the action team arrived, they left without doing anything, so he didn't take it to heart.
It sounded like everyone else in the base knew about this, because he noticed that the other two unfamiliar passengers in the car were also casting concerned glances in his direction, intentionally or unintentionally.
Su Ci nodded, "I did hear the alarm, but it stopped quickly."
Then he threw the question back, "Do you know what's going on?"
"Oh, you just started yesterday, so it's normal that you don't know the situation." Luo Shengfei said, "I don't know the details, but I heard that the alarm was triggered because the concentration of pollutants in the air exceeded the warning value."
"Alert value?"
"Yes." Luo Shengfei pointed at the blood-red clouds in the sky and said, "When the concentration of pollutants reaches a certain level, bad things will happen, so there are monitors installed throughout the base, especially in the nursery..."
Bad things?
When Su Ci tilted his head, did he mean that he would lose his mind if infected by the resentment in the red fog?
"I remember it should be written in the work manual." At this point, he looked at Su Ci suspiciously, "Have you not started reading it yet?"
Su Ci paused and denied, "I saw it."
Even though I read less than a page.
"Hmm, then maybe you haven't read the chapter about pollutants yet. You'd better read it more when you get back."
Luo Shengfei said enthusiastically, "You don't have to worry about the assessment at the end of the month. Although the work manual looks thick, there are only a few key points for the assessment."
"When I have a chance later, I'll help you mark the test points. Look at them more and you'll pass easily."
Although the two have different jobs, Luo Shengfei is good at socializing and because of the nature of his job, he often has to go to the nursery, so he has a good relationship with previous keepers.
He also helped advise the keepers when they were preparing for the assessment. Generally, the test papers in the first month were not difficult, and because it was becoming increasingly difficult to recruit keepers, the assessment content was relaxed a lot.
"Do you want to draw it in the manual?" At this time, he heard Su Ci ask.
"Yeah, it's a pity that it's such a thick book. You probably didn't bring it with you. Otherwise, I would help you draw it now, and you can start learning to memorize it tonight..."
Luo Shengfei was talking when he suddenly fell silent, because he saw Su Ci take out the thick "Breeder's Work Manual" out of thin air, and he was choked for a moment.
He stared blankly at Su Ci handing him the manual, and after subconsciously taking it, he couldn't help but exclaim "Fuck".
"You have a space button?" he asked.
"Um."
After getting a positive answer, Luo Shengfei was so envious that he almost cried, but he soon thought of something and his eyes suddenly lit up.
He quickly moved closer to Su Ci and asked in a low voice, "Did you bring anything extra with you to the Prison Star this time?"
Su Ci didn't answer, but just waited for him to continue.
Luo Shengfei asked again: "What's available? Is there anything to eat?"
Food? Su Ci stared at him warily.
Luo Shengfei quickly waved his hands, "Don't get me wrong, I just haven't eaten human food in a long time. If you bring more, I can buy it from you, or exchange it with points."
Although points are indeed the hard currency on Prison Star, the various supplies brought back from the interstellar space are even more so.
Due to the nature of Prison Star and the transportation costs, the staff on Prison Star can only stay in the base even on vacation. They can only have a long vacation away from Prison Star once every two years.
People who come back from a long vacation can often make a lot of money from the supplies they bring back, but there is a limit to the weight each person can carry, so it is not too outrageous.
As for the new employees, most of them had no idea about the situation on Prison Star before coming, and basically few of them carried large amounts of supplies, after all, online shopping is so convenient now.
However, who would have thought that not only does Prison Star prohibit interstellar online shopping, but even supplies on this planet are in short supply?
Su Ci looked at Luo Shengfei's orange uniform, thought for a moment, and asked, "You're from the logistics department, right?"
"Yes!" Luo Shengfei nodded, "I'm from the maintenance team of the logistics department."
Su Ci: "The Logistics Department...should have a list of exchangeable supplies?"
Luo Shengfei: "Of course, what do you want to exchange? I have a list of supplies that can be exchanged this week. It is guaranteed to be the most complete and up-to-date!"
Su Ci: "Let me see?"
Luo Shengfei: "Okay, then let's add each other as friends. I'll send it to your contact number."
The two of them became friends, and Luo Shengfei quickly sent the list of supplies to Su Ci, then looked at him eagerly.
Su Ci clicked on the list and looked through it carefully.
He first saw the nutrient solution. There were more than 100 boxes left to redeem this week. Each box was enough for a week, which means 21 bottles of nutrient solution, and only 10 points were needed.
Su Ci calculated that he had 100 points every month. If he exchanged all of them for nutrient solution, plus he could get a box every week, he could get a total of 294 bottles of nutrient solution, which was less than ten bottles a day on average.
Of course, he could use cosmic currency to buy points from others privately, but at the moment, he had no channels and no money. Su Ci checked with his smart brain and found that there was only a little over a thousand yuan left in his account.
Therefore, trading supplies with Luo Shengfei is a good choice.
Soon Su Ci turned to the canned meat column, which included chicken, fish, beef and rabbit meat. Each box was 100 points. There were also more expensive meats, ranging from 150 to 300 points.
Su Ci continued to read and after flipping for a long time he finally saw the fertilizer.
There are two types of fertilizers provided by the base. One is a mixed fertilizer of solid particles, a bag of 250g requires 50 points, and the other is a multi-functional maintenance liquid, a bottle of 200ml requires 100 points.
With his current points, he could only redeem a bag of solid granular mixed fertilizer, but he wasn't sure if it would be useful...
Even if it is useful, one pack is not enough.
Su Ci thought for a moment, looked at Luo Shengfei who was looking at him pitifully, and asked, "How many points do you have?"
Luo Shengfei sneered, "It's not convenient to say this, but after all, I have been working on Prison Star for such a long time, and I am also the team leader of the maintenance team..."
What this means is that the points he can get every month must be much more than Su Ci.
Su Ci didn't mind. He had already made up his mind and said, "I have canned beef, and I only accept points for redemption."
Luo Shengfei's eyes lit up, "How many?"
"I can give you two boxes."
Luo Shengfei's face lit up with joy. "Okay, okay. According to the market price, one box of canned beef is 75 points, so two boxes is 150. I'll transfer it to you now."
Su Ci glanced at the list. 150 points was just enough for him to redeem one each of the two fertilizers, but...
"The canned beef on the exchange list is 300g, and mine is 350g." He said, taking out a box from the space button.
Luo Shengfei's eyes lit up when he saw the canned beef. "Okay, okay, then I'll convert it and give you some extra points."
Finally, Luo Shengfei transferred 175 points to Su Ci, and Su Ci handed him two cans of beef on the spot.
The other two passengers in the car, a man and a woman, saw this scene and were obviously moved, but they didn't know Su Ci and were hesitant about how to strike up a conversation.
Su Ci pretended not to know. After all, he had enough points for the time being, and he would not trade food unless it was absolutely necessary.
He doesn't even have enough to eat...
Finally, the woman among the passengers stood up and prepared to come over to ask.
However, Su Ci suddenly frowned and looked out the window. He saw that the sky, which was originally bright, suddenly became dark, and the red clouds were also gathering in a certain direction.
At the same time, alarms sounded throughout the base.
"Warning! Warning! Monitoring by the Prison Star Meteorological Department indicates that bloody rain is forming!"
"The affected areas include Bases 21, 24, and 26. All personnel outside Base 24 are requested to immediately take shelter in nearby buildings!"
