As soon as I parked the car at the base gate, the soldiers on guard immediately came up to me and asked me questions.
Chu Guodong took out his identification and handed it over.
"Greetings, sir." The soldier glanced down at his identification, respectfully returned it, and gave a standard military salute.
Chu Guodong retrieved the documents, nodded to the soldier, and drove ahead in the direction he indicated.
Upon entering the capital base, there was another checkpoint, with separate channels for base personnel and non-base personnel. Since Gu Yanzhi and Song Zhao, both non-military personnel, were also in the group, Chu Guodong directly chose the non-base personnel channel.
"Hello, please get out of the car to complete the entry procedures. Just park the car there." As soon as the car passed through the passage, fully armed staff immediately stepped forward.
"Everyone needs to get off," the staff member added immediately, seeing that there were quite a few people in the car.
The windows of all three cars were rolled down in advance, and the staff's voices were quite loud, so everyone could hear them.
After parking their cars in the designated areas, they were led by staff into the registration room.
The sweltering morning heat hadn't dispelled much of the heat; everyone was still drenched in sweat. But entering the registration room felt like stepping into another world. The coolness, like a sip of ice water on a summer's day, instantly dispelled all the heat and fatigue. Those who had been on the go for so long couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, as if all the pressure and exhaustion had been released in that instant.
The people inside were also heavily armed, including the soldiers on duty at the gate. Despite the high temperature, they were still wearing protective suits, thick masks, and gloves, with not a single inch of skin exposed.
The entrance to the registration room is a separate, transparent room. Everyone who wants to enter must pass through this room and have their entire body sprayed with disinfectant by the people inside.
"Excuse me, what is this?" Gu Yanzhi was the first to enter the disinfection room, looking puzzled and asking.
"The extreme heat and the recent epidemic mean we have to take precautions. But please rest assured, there are strict disinfection and quarantine procedures for entering the base, and there will be no epidemic within our base." The staff member explained with pride in their eyes, a testament to their confidence in the capital base.
They've been traveling a lot lately. The extreme heat outbreak at the Julu base was brief, and thanks to the good management by Zhou You and his wife—proper handling of the corpses and isolation from the outside world—this situation didn't occur.
In the following days, they drove day and night in shifts without stopping on the road, so they naturally did not know that the plague had already broken out.
Seeing that the beautiful woman didn't look too well, the staff member whispered to Gu Yanzhi, "Don't worry, the medical experts at the base have developed a solution, and we believe the plague will be completely eradicated soon. This is inside information; others don't know yet."
After everyone entered the registration room, a female staff member, also fully covered up, immediately stepped forward to inquire about their situation.
"Hello, may I ask where you're from?"
City C
Do you have any identification documents on you? ID card, passport, driver's license, etc. are all acceptable.
The group took out their identification documents and handed them over. Gu Yanzhi and Song Zhao had their ID cards, while everyone else except Gu Yanlin had military green officer ID cards, and Gu Yanlin had a red officer ID card.
In the early stages of the apocalypse, there was a shortage of various supplies, especially in City C, where support arrived later than in other places. Gu Yanlin's military officer's certificate was a modified old marriage certificate, and the words "marriage" could still be vaguely seen on it.
The contents were also handwritten, but the seal of the C City Military Region confirmed the authenticity of the certificate.
Upon seeing the stack of military officer IDs handed to her, the young woman's eyes immediately filled with respect. No matter the era, soldiers who defend our country are always worthy of respect.
"Hello, Chief Chu, the base commander has been waiting for you for a long time. Please come over as soon as possible," the young lady said to Chu Guodong immediately after checking his certificate.
Then she picked up the phone and dialed a number. A moment later, someone hurriedly came over, had a brief conversation with Chu Guodong, and then took Chu Guodong away.
The people at the registration desk were instructed that if they saw Chu Guodong, they must immediately notify him to go see the base commander, no matter what time it was.
"Comrade Gu, your identification needs to be updated to the standard format. Please wait a moment."
"Ms. Gu and Mr. Song, you'll also need to wait a moment while we complete the registration procedures."
After checking each document, the young lady returned them and addressed Gu Yanzhi and the other two.
The household registration system and military registration system have now been fully restored, and the identities of the individuals were quickly verified.
Gu Yanlin's identification was due to special circumstances during a special period, but his identity had already been entered into the military registration system. They had seen all sorts of officer ID cards, so Gu Yanlin's was nothing special. Now that they had the means, they could simply remake and update it.
Gu Yanzhi and Song Zhao are not military personnel and need to go through the normal entry process to the base. However, since they are family members of military officers, they are exempt from the points required to enter the base.
That's right, the capital base now uses a points system, and points are equivalent to money. Resources can be exchanged for points, and work also earns points.
Correspondingly, points can be used for payments in various aspects of life, such as buying things, seeing a doctor, etc. Even houses in the capital base require points, which can only be rented and not sold, with different sizes of houses having different prices.
While processing the procedures for Gu Yanzhi and his companion, the young woman also explained the points system of the capital base to these people.
After the process was completed, the young lady took out several points cards and entered the individuals' identity information into them. These cards are essentially their bank cards and ID cards at the capital base, and they can simply swipe them to pay points.
Chu Guodong's card was also given to them, along with a small booklet for each of them, listing the exchange prices and official purchase prices for various items.
The group sat down to the side to study the booklet, waiting for Gu Yanlin's new military officer's certificate to be processed.
The light in front of him was suddenly blocked, and a group of burly men in black lined up to greet the man in a white suit who looked gentle and refined as he walked in.
The staff member calmly stepped forward to greet us.
"Damn it, I ran into him again," Lin Cheng muttered under his breath, looking up at the man in the white suit.
Upon closer inspection, the members of Squad 532 did not look well.
Song Zhao frowned and asked Lin Cheng in a low voice, "You have a grudge against him?"
Lin Cheng was the most emotionally stable person in Squad 532 besides Chu Guodong, and the fact that he was so open about his emotions now showed his disgust for this person.
