Chapter 51 Don't resist

"Don't be impatient."

"If there are still vacancies after taking in people of the right age and in scarce jobs, our base might be kind enough to take in a few losers like you."

The patrolman didn't worry about arousing public anger. Even if he said it loudly and openly now, people would only dare to be angry but not speak.

There was still no one missing in the queue, men, women, old and young.

Even if they were alternatives, these people had to hold on to the hope that they would be selected and line up in a seemingly endless queue.

"Are you doing this to those of us who have run here at all costs!?"

The man was desperate and had no expectations at all. He roared heartbreakingly.

Chen Qingqing was in no mood to watch this conflict anymore and walked quickly towards the door of the shelter.

Shang Li quickly followed: "Sister, are we still going in to take a look?"

Chen Qingqing nodded.

Shang Li hesitated: "But they don't look like good people..."

"We are looking for a suitable shelter, not an orphanage." Chen Qingqing answered calmly.

Perhaps when she heard the man's collapse and screaming, Chen Qingqing's heart did have a little turbulence.

But soon she returned to calm.

This scene is very common. She has even experienced this scene countless times in various identities in her previous life.

She was the silent person in the team, the yelling person, the sick person leaning against the wall and watching coldly, and the person who maintained order with an electric baton.

When she became everyone, she realized that it was difficult to say whether everyone's choice was right or wrong.

The patrolman is right. Any founder who wants the shelter to develop and continue to develop does not want to accept some old, weak, sick and disabled people.

They need fresh blood and energetic bodies.

This is the case at the beginning of the end of the world, and it is even more so with the arrival of various natural disasters.

Many "saviors" who initially hold the idea of ​​saving the world and helping people will accept all survivors who come to him without distinction.

But as time goes by, as long as he experiences enough things, he will definitely realize how much of a burden this group of people who rely on him or cannot bring him productivity is.

He not only has to support himself, but also a group of unproductive people.

This is not a problem that can be solved simply by loving others.

And choosing to abandon those people at that time will be more difficult than directly rejecting them at the beginning.

Shang Li nodded thoughtfully.

Although he had not had the same experience as Chen Qingqing, he would try his best to understand what Chen Qingqing said.

The two of them quickly walked to the door. The people at the head of the line seemed to be used to being cut in line, and looked at Chen Qingqing and Shang Li with numbness.

Chen Qingqing skillfully opened her backpack and showed the supplies in her bag.

The inspector was a 40-something-year-old lady with curly hair. She glanced down with a look of disdain in her eyes: "Is that all?"

Chen Qingqing nodded: "It's enough for three meals."

The mother rolled her eyes: "Then only one person can go in."

Shang Li was stunned and said hurriedly: "But the patrolman just now asked the two of us to come together..."

"I said, only one person can go in!" The mother shouted impatiently, interrupting Shang Li.

"If you keep talking nonsense to me, none of you will get in!"

Chen Qingqing frowned.

The entry conditions of this shelter are more stringent than she imagined.

Two pieces of bread and a bottle of water, according to her experience in her previous life, are enough to exchange for two places to enter the base.

Not to mention that she and Shang Li are just the right age and in good health, making them suitable productive forces.

... Either this shelter is short of supplies, or this woman is asking for too much in front of the lion.

Chen Qingqing glanced at Shang Li: "Then..."

The aunt interrupted her and looked at Chen Qingqing: "Only you can go in."

Chen Qingqing frowned slightly.

"Can't we decide this ourselves?"

The aunt raised her chin proudly, as if blaming them for being surprised: "Yes, only you can go in. If you don't want to, you two can go away together."

Shang Li took a deep breath.

It seems that he has been living too well since the end of the world. This is the first time he has encountered such a situation, and he is actually a little out of breath.

The aunt seemed very satisfied with Shang Li's reaction. She tore off a yellow label paper from the labels in her hand with a proud look and slapped it on Chen Qingqing's chest: "Go in."

Chen Qingqing was silent for a moment and looked at Shang Li: "Brother, you go home first and get the remaining supplies. I'll wait for you inside."

Upon hearing this, the aunt suddenly reached out and grabbed Chen Qingqing who was about to go in: "Do you have any supplies at home?"

Chen Qingqing looked puzzled: "What's wrong?"

The aunt immediately put on a friendly smile: "Nothing."

The next second, she took off the yellow label paper on Chen Qingqing's chest and slapped a blue label paper on it with her backhand.

"It's okay, go in, someone will come to find you when your brother comes."

Shang Li's eyes turned, and he immediately responded: "Sister, wait for me, I'll be back soon!"

Chen Qingqing waved to Shang Li.

Under the gaze of her aunt, she walked inside, and two men with electric batons soon came out.

After taking her black bag, he glanced at the label paper on her chest and paused when he was about to step forward.

They looked at each other, turned around, opened the iron door, and waved to Chen Qingqing: "Go in."

If Chen Qingqing saw it right, they should want to hold her out of habit, right?

But after seeing the color of the label paper, they stopped.

... This shelter doesn't seem as simple as she thought.

Chen Qingqing walked through the iron gate, and the outside suddenly became bright, but the noise was extremely noisy.

What came into view was a stretch of sand, with many people being put on buses in batches, and no one knew where they would be sent.

Chen Qingqing took a rough look and found that many women had yellow labels on their chests, many men had red labels, and there were very few people like her with blue labels.

The patrolman inside paused when he saw the label on her chest.

Chen Qingqing took the initiative to ask: "Two brothers, which bus should I go to?"

The patrolman waved his hand: "Are you waiting for someone? You don't have to get on the bus yet, stay nearby, and we will assign you all when the people arrive."

"But don't run around and don't cause trouble for us, otherwise we won't show mercy." The man said with a warning.

Chen Qingqing immediately smiled: "How could that be? I'm nearby."

"By the way... where are we going to be sent later?"

"..."

The man seemed reluctant to answer, but he glanced at her label and clicked his tongue.

"Go where you should go."

Chen Qingqing: "..."

It's really like listening to your words.

Chen Qingqing smiled, took out two cigarettes from her pocket, and handed them forward stealthily: "Two big brothers, please give me a favor."

One of the men's eyes lit up the moment he saw the cigarettes.

He looked at Chen Qingqing and was quite surprised: "You can still sneak in something? You are quite capable."

Of course she didn't bring anything in.

Before entering, the old lady searched Chen Qingqing's body and made sure that she didn't have anything before letting her in.

Chen Qingqing took these two cigarettes out of the space.

The two men looked around and made sure no one noticed, then they licked their lips, quickly snatched the cigarettes and stuffed them into their pockets.

"I can only reveal a little." One man coughed lightly, covered his lips with his fist, and whispered.

Chen Qingqing smiled and replied: "Of course, I can't make it difficult for you."

Seeing that she understood, the man's expression improved a little, and he said: "Men are basically sent to do hard labor, and women..."

"I can only say, don't resist, do whatever you are told to do, so as not to suffer in vain."

Chen Qingqing's heart sank.
