Chapter 109: Small-minded, digging up old scores
Qiao Lan smiled and said, "There's no deadline. I believe Captain Ye will pay me back soon. Please return the twenty-one packs to me when the time comes."
She asked for an extra packet of interest.
Ye Qi thought about it, gritted his teeth and agreed.
He also invested a lot of money to increase the cohesion of the base!
He would take some time to search for supplies himself next time and make sure to find more sausages to return to Qiao Lan.
"Great! With these, the atmosphere will definitely be exciting!"
The subordinates happily took the sausages out to distribute them.
Not long after, thunderous cheers came from the community square, and could be heard clearly in Qiao Lan's room.
It must be the sausage that worked.
Ye Qi's heart, which had shed blood for the capital, finally found some comfort.
But the next second, Qiao Lan asked him the question in his face.
"Do you want to eat some sausage?" Qiao Lan smiled maliciously.
The noodles in the pot were cooked. Ye Qi put the noodles in a large bowl, poured in the soup, and brought it to Qiao Lan.
Answer: "I don't want to eat ham."
"Where's the noodles?"
"I don't want to eat either."
"Oh, that's a shame, Captain Ye. Ham sausage and instant noodles are really delicious."
Qiao Lan picked up the chopsticks, picked up a large spoonful of noodles, blew on it a few times, and slurped it into his mouth.
Then he opened a piece of sausage and chewed it with a smacking sound.
"Hey, I still have a boiled egg in my pocket."
She touched a small package of country-style braised eggs, opened it, sucked the soup out of the bag first, and then took a big gulp.
Ham sausage and braised eggs are standard companions to instant noodles, and they are delicious when eaten together.
Ye Qi swallowed silently.
Strong willpower and automatic neural reflexes are two different things.
He couldn't control his saliva, but with great willpower, he turned around and went to the stove to boil water and cook another bag.
"Uh...well, why don't I do it myself..." Xiao Li said weakly.
Qiao Lan said, "Hey, Captain Ye said he wanted to see us off. We agreed to give him a chance to express his gratitude. He must cook this noodles for us himself. I can't stop him."
In fact, it was she who offered to do it. Tomorrow will be for nothing. Didn’t you say that you really didn’t know how to thank me for doing so much for the base? My requirements are not high. Just cook me a few bags of instant noodles.
Ye Qi squatted in front of the stove to cook noodles.
Qiao Lan gave him three bags of noodles, one bag of braised beef flavor and two bags of stewed chicken with mushrooms flavor.
snort!
He owed it in his previous life!
She had originally not intended to make a fuss about it, but Ye Qi said she was fat... the petty-minded Qiao Lan brought up the past.
Let him cook, just watch, don’t let him eat!
So, Qiao Lan, Xiao Li and Xiao Tang each ate a bag of noodles cooked by Ye Qi.
The old chef and his son shared a bowl of rice. Although they are excellent cooks, they are not very interested in instant noodles.
Just after finishing his meal, investigator Lao Song, who had minor burns and was wrapped in bandages all over his body, came over to see Qiao Lan off.
The aroma of food filling the room made him swallow his saliva.
But he had just finished his hospital meal and refused Qiao Lan's feeding.
"Then I'll give you some crystal cores." Qiao Lan fished out a handful of more than ten early-stage crystal cores the size of rice grains from his pocket and, despite Old Song's refusal, forced them into his hands. "You're welcome. Use the crystal cores to warm up your body as soon as possible."
"Yeah!" Old Song nodded vigorously.
If Qiao Lan hadn't been providing crystal cores to nourish his body, it would have been difficult for him to recover from his internal and external injuries again and again.
Although he was seriously injured in Qiao Lan's safe house at that time and the people he saved were Qiao Lan's friends, Qiao Lan also saved their people. They saved each other, and it is hard to tell who owes whom. In short, they are all good comrades.
Putting away the crystal cores, Old Song secretly vowed that if he could ever get crystal cores, he would definitely give a lot to Qiao Lan. If he couldn't get crystal cores, then... then he would give Qiao Lan whatever he found!
"After you leave the base, the city outside will be in chaos, so you must be careful. If anything happens, just come back. Our base will always support you." Old Song was reluctant to part with Qiao Lan and the others.
Qiao Lan smiled and agreed: "Okay, if you have any problems, just contact me. We are also the base's eternal backing."
Even though she was having a quarrel with Ye Qi, she had no choice but to help him. Ye Qi was her angel.
Knock knock knock, someone is knocking on the door.
The person who came into the room looked familiar, but I couldn't remember who he was.
The young man walked up to Qiao Lan and said, "Miss Qiao, it's me. Do you remember the people we rescued near Renhe Hospital? That... uh, that someone was there too."
Qiao Lan remembered: "It's you, you came to the base too?"
When I first took Xiao Tang out to practice my superpowers, I killed a mutant dog from Marshall and saved several people. Among them were Da Qi, Chu Yinong's uncle, and two firefighters, and this person in front of me was one of them.
The traitor Da Qi is someone the investigators don't want to mention, so they refer to him as "that guy".
"It's me, Miss Qiao. You saved us and we went to Renhe Hospital. You gave us food and medicine, and even a few cans of luncheon meat. I will never forget you in my next life!"
This is the young firefighter Xiao Zhang, who was transferred to the base with the survivors of Renhe Hospital. He worked as a volunteer for a few days in the hospital, helping medical staff maintain order and find supplies.
After arriving at the base, he unexpectedly found his savior there, but he didn't feel comfortable disturbing him because it was obvious that Qiao Lan was a high-ranking official in the base.
It was not until he heard that Qiao Lan was leaving that he mustered up the courage to come and say thank you and say goodbye.
"Miss Qiao, I became a member of the base guard team the day before yesterday. Without you saving my life, I wouldn't be where I am today. I will definitely work hard and live up to your help!"
"Hey, that's too serious. It's not that serious." Qiao Lan felt a little embarrassed.
She just rescued it casually at that time, and she was more interested in the crystal core of the mutant dog. Xiao Zhang was too serious.
"Where is your comrade? I remember he was seriously injured at that time. Is he okay now?" Qiao Lan remembered that there was another firefighter there at that time.
She thought about giving the man a crystal core to warm him up and help him recover. She had a good impression of firefighters who were injured while saving people.
But Xiao Zhang's face darkened.
"he……"
While in Renhe Hospital, he was seriously injured and died due to lack of key medicines.
"Sorry." Qiao Lan understood as soon as she saw Xiao Zhang's expression and didn't ask any more questions.
In this world, life is too fragile.
Xiao Zhang suppressed his grief and forced a smile, saying, "I believe our base will get better and better, and in the future, there will be fewer such regrets!"
People die so easily outside, which shows how precious this base is.
Ye Qi and Lao Song both nodded.
Everyone will do whatever it takes, even risking their lives, to develop the base and provide shelter for more people!
Xiao Zhang looked at Ye Qi and Lao Song's expressions, hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke.
"Captain Ye, although it's a bit inappropriate to bring this up, but... I still have to say that when we were attacked by mutant dogs on the street, comrade Da Qi was truly trying to save us... He was almost killed by the mutant dogs."
Ye Qi and Lao Song looked at each other, and their mood suddenly became heavy.
Da Qi, judging by his past performance, is actually not a bad person. He works very hard and actively in completing tasks.
They were really puzzled as to why they rebelled this time!
It’s a pity that cyanide is too toxic, and they didn’t have the opportunity to investigate thoroughly.
When the topic turned to this, Qiao Lan told Ye Qi what she had always wanted to say.
"Are you guys really a united group?"
