Chapter 611: Mist. Phone call from City C
Lao Chu vaguely heard the noise outside and was a little worried, after all, Xiao An and Gu Ye were not in the shelter. He put on his clothes and went to knock on Li Qing's door.
After knocking twice, no one opened the door. Thinking that he had gone to organize people, he was about to go out to check, but the door was opened from the inside. Li Qing, with his messy hair, looked at Lao Chu with sleepy eyes.
"Uncle Chu, what's wrong?"
What happened? Old Chu looked at him in surprise. It was obvious that the group from the daytime had come to cause trouble. "Did you hear any noise outside?"
"Don't worry, Gangzi and the others are all outside." Li Qing yawned.
Lao Chu knew that Li Qing was not an irresponsible person, but now was the end of the world and lives were precious. There were at least eight hundred refugees outside, if not a thousand. If a fight really broke out, they would have little chance of winning.
Alas, Xiao An is not here, so he has to remind her more.
But before he could say anything, Guo Jing and two neighbors came over.
Seeing that everyone was there, Li Qing could only promise them that everything would be fine tonight.
"I have inside information. There won't be many people coming to attack tonight. Gangzi can handle it."
"You sent people to follow them?" Guo Jing was surprised. He really didn't know that someone went out in the afternoon.
"Well, sort of."
It's not that we sent people to follow him, but there have always been people like him among the refugees, since the first day they arrived in Qing City.
He had almost everything under his control: what kind of strangers appeared among the refugees, who was lucky enough to find a weapon, who betrayed whom, who killed whom, who robbed whose women, food, etc.
He didn't tell Chu An about this, not because he wanted to conceal it, but because he felt it was unnecessary. Because in addition to planting an insider, he also had other arrangements to deal with emergencies. If he were to talk about it, it would probably take a day and a night.
…
On the other side of the fence, Gangzi and his men stood close to the wall, so the fire bottles thrown in could not reach them. The distance between the two security gates was at least 300 meters, so the people outside could not throw the fire bottles to the iron gate. The car had been driven away by Jiang Tuo long ago, so they could throw the fire bottles in the empty field.
When they have finished throwing, it is their turn to throw, and it will not be fire bottles, but grenades.
Gangzi did not dare to waste it. After finding Wang's approximate position, he threw it accurately next to him.
Bang——
After a loud bang, the night returned to its original quietness.
The next morning, Jiang Tuo brought people out to collect the bodies. There were still many people watching around. They must have come before dawn to see whether Wang had succeeded. But all they saw were broken limbs and no one dared to step forward.
Li Qing also walked around the door and found no particularly suspicious persons. Gangzi had just finished handing over his shift to Jiang Tuo and took the opportunity to report yesterday's situation to Li Qing. It was just as he expected.
Li Qing suddenly became a little worried about Chu An and Gu Ye. The two should have arrived yesterday.
"Go eat first, and then go back and have a good rest after breakfast. You worked hard yesterday." Li Qing patted Gangzi's shoulder.
Hey, Xiao An is so capable, he should be fine. I shouldn’t let my imagination run wild.
When I turned around, I saw two people with dark circles under their eyes.
"Sister Xiao An, Brother Gu Ye, you're back?" Bo Zai just came out of the gate and saw the two of them. He immediately ran out. Following behind him was Zhou Shen, who walked forward vigilantly.
"Sister Xiao An, you..." Bo Zai was intoxicated by the smell of the two people. He was too embarrassed to retreat and hurriedly changed the subject, "Did you receive the supplies?"
"I got it. The car is parked behind the ruins. Find two people to drive the car in." Gu Ye said.
The car was taken out by Xiao An from the space before they came out. As for why Sheng Tang left the car behind, that is another story.
The food provided during the heyday of the Tang Dynasty was quite a lot, filling two trucks, but most of it was primary heat-resistant sweet potatoes and potatoes, which were bitter and had a lot of gluten, and tasted bad. The only coarse grains were 500 kilograms of corn grits. No matter what it was, as long as it could fill my stomach, it was fine.
There are 157 people in the shelter now, including those recruited by Shen Changyuan. They work very hard and will stay in the shelter if nothing unexpected happens. This is the prototype of the Qingshi base.
Chu An and Gu Ye returned to the shelter and immediately looked for a place to take a shower. Everyone just thought that they had been sleeping in the open air and had suffered a lot, and no one thought much about it.
After the two of them finished packing, Li Qing prepared to treat the council members to a home-cooked lunch to celebrate the arrival of the two truckloads of supplies. He personally cooked six dishes and also took out a bottle of white wine.
Chu An thought it looked familiar, as if it was given to him by himself when they lived under the bridge.
Li Qing said without hesitation that it was the wine from that time. He had kept two bottles. He drank one today and kept the other to drink when he saw Chu An again.
"By that time, Qingshi Base will definitely have a place among all bases." Li Qing raised his glass, "I toast to everyone."
Lao Chu was the first to stand up, "We should respect the beautiful future."
Others also stood up, "Yes, to the future."
After the first glass of wine, everyone relaxed. Gangzi mentioned what happened by the river yesterday, feeling a little helpless. The refugees didn't fight when they rushed over, but surrounded and cursed them. Zhou Shen got tired of the curses and kicked one down. The others immediately fled in all directions. He felt that he was powerless.
"You can practice your tongue more and curse back in the future." Shen Changyuan said with a smile, "Or I can curse back for you one day. I'm pretty good at cursing."
Chu An still sat there watching everyone chatting and laughing, occasionally eating a bite of cold shredded potatoes. As for stir-fried shredded potatoes, mashed potatoes with soy sauce, potato cubes stewed with pork and vermicelli, candied potatoes, and baked potatoes, she didn't eat them.
Suddenly her cell phone rang. She picked it up and saw that it was a call from City C. She remembered every online cell phone number she had given out.
Chu An stood up and walked to the side to answer the call, then immediately put the phone away from her ear. Zhuona's call of "Xiao An" almost shattered her eardrum.
"Xiao An, are you listening to me? Is the signal bad?" Zhuona didn't hear Chu An's voice and became suspicious of the phone.
"Your voice is too loud. It scared Xiao An." Zhuo's mother scolded her daughter, "Why are you still so reckless? You are the team leader now. You should learn more from Captain Niu."
"Oh, Mom, I wanted to tell Xiao An the good news, why did you tell it to me?" Zhuona's voice was filled with disappointment.
"Xiao An, this is Sisi. Are you still in Qing City?" Huo Sisi's voice came from the other end of the line again, followed by Yin Tianlin, "Xiao An, the C City base has undergone significant changes in the two months since you left. I really hope you can come back and take a look."
Chu An couldn't get a word in, but he felt sweet inside, this was the feeling of being thought of. And from hearing them speak with full energy and high spirits, they must be doing well.
