The era of great radiation is coming
Jiang Miao never let down his guard, holding his gun and pacing around looking for cover: "Team Leader Yuan? I wonder why you condescended to come here."
Yuan Yexin came out of the door empty-handed to show his sincerity: "Team Leader Jiang, I am no longer the leader of our C3 team."
After returning, Yuan Yexin was detained in the Yuan family for recuperation, and was seen by one psychologist after another.
In order to gain the right to come and go freely, he had to compromise with the doctor and make up a story that he had been eating tree bark, roots, garbage and other foods while fleeing, and his brain automatically forgot the previous embarrassing experience that made him mistakenly believe that he had not eaten.
This statement was recognized by the doctor, who said that the brain has emergency protection measures and it is normal to forget bad memories under extreme conditions, so he was let go.
The Yuan family breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that at least he wasn't crazy.
But only Yuan Yexin was clearly aware of the changes in his body. His five senses were sharper, his reactions were faster, and his movements were more agile. It was simply that some supernatural phenomenon had occurred!
Just like just now, he would never have been able to dodge such a close-range shot in the past, but he did it just now.
Seeing that the other party did not carry any hot weapons, Jiang Miao also let down his guard and put his gun on his back: "I am only the acting team leader. When Team Leader Yuan recovers from his illness, I will have to step down and let others take over."
Since the goal has been achieved, it doesn’t matter whether he is the team leader or not.
Yuan Yexin didn't say anything, but just quietly looked at the person opposite him in the dim light of the flashlight next to him.
Slender but possessing absolute strength, it seemed to coincide with the strange changes in his body.
Moreover, Jiang Miao was definitely the person who should have benefited the most after his disappearance. It was just that no one knew why she gave up her independent residence in the elite circle and chose to live here.
After the wall was built, Jiang Miao put away the tools and carried the bag on himself: "Team Leader Yuan, is there anything else?"
Yuan Yexin shook his head.
He just couldn't sleep in the middle of the night and was curious about what room Jiang Miao chose, so he came to see what was going on. Who knew he would run into her by chance?
"Are you... decorating it yourself?" Before leaving, Yuan Yexin glanced at the smooth wall and couldn't help but wonder.
Jiang Miao curled his lips: "To be precise, I'm building a wall."
Looking at the bullet trajectory that was easily penetrated on the wall, Yuan Yexin felt that the quality of the construction here was indeed worrying.
It was not convenient for him to stay here any longer since the owner had left, so the two of them climbed up the cave and slowly walked back.
"Jiang Miao, do you believe what I said?"
There was silence for a long time, so long that Jiang Miao mistakenly thought that the person behind him had quietly left, and then Yuan Yexin suddenly said this.
"believe."
Not only did she believe it, but she was also the instigator.
The joke about Yuan Yexin fleeing to the construction site and eating garbage and then being forced to forget by his brain and then claiming that he had not had a drop of water for three months has spread these days. His original statement has become the biggest joke, causing people to imitate it after dinner.
Yuan Yexin was excited: "Do you really believe what I said? You managed to survive without food or water for three months?"
Jiang Miao looked him up and down and said, "Looking at the state of your body muscles, I know that you can't maintain them by eating junk food. Those people are just spreading rumors. Team Leader Yuan, please don't take it to heart."
Yuan Yexin emphasized: "I didn't eat junk food or anything else. I really didn't eat anything. I was running for my life without taking a break!"
When they were almost there, Jiang Miao looked at him sympathetically and asked, "It's still dark, Team Leader Yuan, can you see the road clearly at night? Do you need me to take you back?"
Yuan Yexin looked up at the sky helplessly, with bitterness lingering in his mouth and unable to speak. After a long while, he replied: "No, I'll go first."
After he left, he heard earnest instructions from behind: "Be careful on your way home. If you don't know the way, wait where you are and ask if someone comes!"
Yuan Yexin immediately quickened his pace.
The dark grey figure disappeared in the darkness. Jiang Miao did not delay and went straight back to the room. He put the bags in his hands into the space and classified them into the area of 'appeared in front of people'.
Yuan Yexin's test tonight was too obvious. Fortunately, the protective cave had been completed and only needed the final decoration. She also planned to reinforce the twenty or so square meters outside, so she would not have to sneak in in the middle of the night in the future.
When the members of the C3 team learned that Team Leader Jiang had taken the materials to reinforce the underground housing himself, the members who were on vacation immediately gave up the idea of moving in with fine decoration, and immediately ran to their own homes to check the solidity and find out any omissions.
Jiang Miao seemed to admire those who worked hard to survive and planned ahead.
Anyway, there are still a lot of surplus protective materials in the command center. Jiang Miao reminded them intentionally or unintentionally that the things here are definitely much better than the materials used for the unified decoration of the base. It would be a waste not to take these precious materials back and recycle them.
With the reminder and protection of the team leader, the workers boldly took some scraps home for their own use after work every day.
Anyway, these things will be destroyed if they are not used, so it is better to make use of their residual energy.
The pipeline laying at the construction site is nearing completion, and the plague outside the site is gradually being brought under control.
Due to many reasons such as medical shortages, malnutrition, and poor sanitary conditions, more than half of Beijing's population has died, leaving only a few million people. Corpses have piled up like mountains in the crematorium. I heard that experts have developed a giant fuel machine that uses corpses as energy after years of research. This time, due to the plague, they ignored the wishes of the people and obtained approval to burn all of them. There is no problem in supplying electricity to the entire city for more than a month.
The reduction in population and the unchanged base area will inevitably lead to difficulty in controlling public security, so the Beijing city officials have to adjust the scope of the base, reallocate housing, and reduce the management area.
Fortunately, Chengnanfu River happened to be located within the new area of the base, so Jiang Miao did not have to go to the government hall to check his new address like other workers.
“Ah——”
"Miao Miao, welcome home."
After not being back for more than half a year, Gousheng has grown from a kitten lying at my feet into a waist-high tiger.
It pounced over excitedly, put its front paws on Jiang Miao's shoulders, and licked her hair and cheeks affectionately with its rough tongue.
After such a long time, I didn't expect it still remembered my smell.
Jiang Miao rubbed the back of its neck, looked at the spotless home and said gently to the Immortal Lord: "You have worked hard."
Such a big tiger is full of energy and strength, so it must be difficult to lead it.
"Are you talking about Gousheng?" The Immortal Lord beckoned him and let him get off Jiang Miao obediently. "I usually let him into the secret realm to play. He had a lot of fun playing with the guy you asked me to tie up last time."
Yuan Yexin was lucky not to be scared to death.
Xianjun and Gousheng didn't go out. The plague was as if it didn't exist for them. They just felt that there was a lot of noise downstairs every day. When Jiang Miao came back, he found out that his next-door neighbor had unfortunately passed away. The new family that moved in was a family of five. The man worked in a research institute and it was said that he had also booked an apartment in the elite level of the underground city.
When the neighbors learned that Jiang Miao was the team leader of the construction team, they came to get close to her. However, after accidentally knowing that she lived in the outer circle, they never came to ask about the situation in the underground city again.
The conditions at the construction site were tough and the food was very limited. Even though Jiang Miao often cooked special meals for himself and everyone else, it couldn't satisfy his cravings.
Now that I have finally finished the work, I must have something delicious for my first meal!
Morels stuffed with shrimp balls, scallion-fried sea cucumber, sweet-crusted dried abalone, coconut-flavored spareribs, crab roe tofu, and a vegetarian bean sprout soup to get rid of the grease in your stomach.
After eating dry food for a while, Jiang Miao felt that his appetite had increased dramatically. He only felt better after he had eaten a lot of food.
"Is it going well over there?"
When Miaomiao was gone, Su Heng's soul had been exposed to the rules of the world, and he was suffering from torture all the time.
"Not bad." Jiang Miao lay down on the sofa. He always wanted to faint after eating.
Gou Sheng was lying right under the sofa, his tail rubbing against her calf affectionately. Xianjun was sitting beside her and wanted to use his spiritual power to check Jiang Miao's physical condition, but she stopped him: "I'm really fine, just a little tired. You should save your spiritual power, there will be plenty of places where you can use it in the future."
Su Heng was just about to say that the world will's suppression of his soul had improved over the past six months, but his face suddenly changed, and Jiang Miao also felt something was wrong.
——It was as if there was something unknown in the air.
"Let's go to the dungeon."
Jiang Miao acted decisively and put on the modified protective suit, helmet and gloves within a minute, leaving not an inch of skin exposed.
She did not take away any furniture in the room that was exposed to the radiation environment, leaving herself no safety risks.
Su Heng looked at Miaomiao's expression as if she was facing a great enemy, and knew that the natural disaster that she feared most in her life had come. He immediately cast a spell of invisibility to circle himself and Gousheng.
Jiang Miao looked back but didn't see anyone. He only heard a fragrant voice echoing in his ears: "Just keep going, we can catch up."
Indeed, the underground city is not open to the public now, and it is much more convenient for Jiang Miao, the former team leader, to enter and exit than to bring strangers in and out.
But there was no clear way out, and the Immortal King was trapped in the room again. Fortunately, he was not the type who liked to join in the fun.
It was getting dark now, and some roadsides were still littered with corpses that had not been cleared away during the plague. The piles of corpses were crawling with rats and bedbugs, and the air was filled with the smell of decay.
Therefore, Jiang Miao's fully armed outfit did not stand out in the crowd. She held her breath and did not even dare to take a breath, and went straight to the entrance of the underground city construction site.
"Team Leader Jiang? Didn't your team finish the work early?" The guard at the gate was surprised, but still opened the door to let her in.
Xianjun and Gousheng were following behind him. Jiang Miao stood at the door and chatted with the guard, then held the door shut to let them in: "Our work period is over, but my own room hasn't started yet."
The security guard also knew that many workers would go to their assigned rooms to reinforce and fine-tune the decoration after get off work. This was human nature, so Jiang Miao's current behavior was not surprising.
"You technical talents are great." The security guard sighed with envy. He and his colleagues only got a small room in the outer circle, and the only privilege was that ordinary people came in to a four-person room, while they had a two-person room.
A wisp of fragrance floated past him, and Jiang Miao smiled: "Then I'll get busy first."
"Okay, walk slowly."
Jiang Miao reached his area code as quickly as possible and went down the deep well, where he happened to meet Wang Feng, the leader of the D6 team.
They are responsible for laying pipelines in the southwest direction of the outer circle.
It happens to be the area where Jiang Miao's room is located.
Wang Feng, carrying a large pipeline on his shoulder, raised an eyebrow at Jiang Miao and said, "Team Leader Jiang, are you here to inspect our work?"
Coming underground, the weak radiation in the air was much reduced. Jiang Miao took off his helmet and smiled: "Is my room ready?"
"Not yet. Your four bays need to have their walls broken down and pillars rebuilt. The ceiling supports are in Team A2 right now, so we have to wait until they're used up first."
Jiang Miao nodded: "Our construction period is over, I will decorate my room by myself."
Wang Feng naturally wanted less work: "That's great, I'll have someone bring the wiring and pipes to your room later, just let me know if you need anything."
