Chapter 257 Extremely Hot. Square Lady
Chu An and Gu Ye sat down. The two came to inquire about the news. Naturally, they took advantage of his arm injury to talk about last night's actions and the resettlement of the people in the base.
"The rescued people are still in the base." Gangzi said, "The base will not be open to the public for the time being. It needs to be reorganized and repaired. If you want to find someone, you have to wait for a while."
"You guys won't let me in?"
Gangzi nodded, "We are not allowed to enter either, but if there is an emergency, you can ask Director Li for approval."
Chu An nodded, it seemed that he wouldn’t be able to go see Zhuona for a while.
"Are there any civilians injured in the base?"
"Yes, but they were all previous injuries. The doctor from the shelter hospital has already gone there."
Chu An glanced at his injured arm.
Gangzi scratched his head and said rather embarrassedly, "This... was an accident. When I was cleaning the battlefield, I found a suspicious person and chased him. I didn't expect that person to have a grenade. Fortunately, the second captain saved me."
"Has the person been caught?"
Gangzi shook his head.
When Chu An asked about other things, Gangzi didn't know the answer either. After all, they were just cooperating with the operation.
The two waited for Li Qing for a while, but when he still didn't come back, they left.
On the way home, Chu An suddenly thought of someone, and hurriedly connected to the space to ask Chen Xun and Wang Ce if they knew "A Fei".
Neither of them had heard of it.
Shen Xun asked, "Do you think there is something wrong with this person?"
"Mayor Ma mentioned a man named A Fei, he meant the contact person between them." Chu An analyzed, "Gangzi said that one person escaped during this operation. When we went to the warehouse, the people over there seemed to have known that the base had been lost, and they set fire as soon as we started fighting."
Shen Xun pondered for a moment, "Do you suspect that the person who escaped from the base was Ah Fei?"
"Yes, and he also sent orders to the warehouse."
Wang Ce said, "Don't guess anymore. When the base opens, you can go and find out about Mayor Ma's condition. He may be frightened and won't stay like this forever."
"Let's talk about it later." Chen Xun didn't want to trouble Chu An because of his own affairs, "Didn't you say that it will be extremely hot soon? Let's get through this difficult time first."
Chen Xun is a sensitive person with a strong sense of propriety, which is why Chu An is willing to help him to the best of his ability. If he only knows how to ask for things, it would be a different story.
"I'll take care of it." Chu An said, and then cut off the mental connection.
On the other side, the secretariat of the C City Base.
Tang Chen tore the plan of separate governance into pieces. This was the third plan he had prepared, and it was completely useless now.
Maybe his superiors won't let him use it either.
Dangdangdang...
"Enter."
Miao Miao came in holding a thick stack of documents, with four or five people queuing behind her.
From today on, base operation will be the top priority of City C, and everyone will be busy for a long time.
Miao Miao briefly explained the documents that needed to be signed, and then put them down. As she turned to leave, Tang Chen suddenly asked, "Is Director Wang awake?"
Miao Miao stopped and said, "I'm awake now. I can already argue with Director Li."
She was helpless. "These two people are reviewing the counterattack at the base. Many things don't make sense, and we don't know which line the mysterious team is on. In short, whatever Director Li says, Director Wang will definitely oppose, and whatever Director Wang says, Director Li will definitely oppose."
The corners of Tang Chen's mouth twitched. He was the one who made up the mysterious team. He couldn't think of it as some monsters. Moreover, many people did die by gunfire. Monsters wouldn't use guns, right?
He cleared his throat and said seriously, "Ask Captain Zhang Zhao to come to my office later."
Miao Miao agreed and left, but Director Eugene hurried over, cut in line and entered the office, then locked the door.
He didn't take the documents, but his face looked heavy.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Tang Chen frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"
Director You slumped on the sofa like a child, "I can't interrogate Mayor Ma. Please send someone else."
Tang Chen frowned. He was worried about both of them. "Why can't we interrogate them?"
"First, he is stupid and foolish, and I don't know whether it is true or not. Second, everyone in his family is like leeches, they won't let go once they set their sights on me, and they come to my house to make trouble every day. Especially his daughter, she even tried to commit suicide with a knife and threatened me in my house."
Tang Chen raised his arm. Mayor Ma's problem was very difficult. Many people saw him serving tea to prisoners, which had a bad influence. Some people also heard him talk about some of his past corruption, but his mental state was very unstable now. There was no evidence for many things, so he could not be convicted. He could only be detained under double supervision.
"Lock him up first and put his matter aside." Tang Chen said, "The temperature has been rising recently. I'm afraid the ice and snow will melt soon. We need to store more water for reserve."
"There are four water reservoirs at the base, and two more in the shelter. That should be enough."
"How long will it last?" Tang Chen looked serious. "What if the weather gets hotter? What if it lasts for more than a year like the extreme cold?"
Director You was slightly startled, "What should we do then?"
"There are no large-scale forces in City C now. When everyone moves into the base, we won't need so many military and police to maintain law and order. I want to allocate some people to store ice and put it in the cave behind the shelter."
"There are so many workers at the base, just let them go."
"No, I need someone who is absolutely loyal to do this." Tang Chen said very seriously, "I don't know if you have seen a post."
Director You stood up quickly, looking shocked, "You also read that post?"
Tang Chen nodded. "And I have been preparing according to the instructions in the post since the first day of the rainstorm. After more than a year, most of the content in the post has been verified. If the temperature continues to rise, we will soon usher in extreme heat."
Director Eugene swallowed and changed his previous casual tone, "I understand. I will cooperate with this operation."
"Okay. I'll let Zhang Zhao connect with you tomorrow."
Director You nodded and prepared to leave. When he reached the door, he turned back and asked, "Why did you believe that post? Normally, no one would believe that kind of statement."
Tang Chen smiled, "Secret. By the way, this base counterattack is top secret. I only told my superiors about the time tampering. We must keep a unified tone to the outside world."
Director Youjin nodded, "I see. You, me and the two directors are the only ones in the base who know the details. Everyone else thinks it's a secret team sent by the higher-ups."
On the other hand, although Chu An and Gu Ye did not see Li Qing, Li Qing came to their house the next day and sat in their living room and didn't want to leave.
The daughter of the shipping tycoon, who is 1.7 meters tall and weighs 170 kilograms, can pick up Li Qing with one hand and turn around ten times on the spot without blushing or getting nervous.
"I really don't deserve to be called a square lady." Li Qing sat at the dining table, resting his head on the table, and said with a look of despair on his face.
"Then just refuse directly." Gu Ye had been trying to persuade him for the whole morning in the same posture as him.
"I have business dealings with her father, so it's hard to refuse."
"Business is business, marriage is marriage. You are not a big group. Do you need to have a business marriage?"
"It's mainly because I need their help." Li Qing changed his face and continued to lean on the table. "Supplies are in short supply now. I want to go to the sea to catch some fish and sell them. I need their boat."
Gu Ye suddenly sat up. Xiao An had mentioned this before. She said that they would go out to sea to fish when the weather got hot.
But on second thought, they still had to go find Lao Chu, so it seemed they couldn't set out together.
