Chapter 263 Suspected amnesia in the natural disaster
After the earthquake, the imperial capital was rebuilt. Anyone returning to the capital after that, if it was their first time, had to register at the official base to obtain a temporary residence permit. This wasn't a special arrangement; Country H wanted to count how many people survived the apocalyptic disaster and identify survivors. Anyone who wasn't a biped and could remember their ID number could obtain a temporary residence permit. Children born during the apocalypse, as long as they weren't bipeds, could also obtain a temporary residence permit.
After receiving a temporary residence permit, you can enter the base to survive. If you don't want to enter the base, you can still earn points through your own labor, which can be used to obtain daily necessities, or when the points reach a certain amount, they can be exchanged for a house. The point system has enabled many survivors to own houses and land in the imperial capital and successfully settle down there.
But not all survivors can settle down in the imperial capital. Most of them move into the base, which will allocate houses for them. They eat from a big pot, but everyone can eat and drink enough.
Lu Xingtang and his friends arrived at the official base of the imperial capital. The place to apply for temporary residence permits was right at the entrance of the official base, next to the base police station.
Lu Xingtang walked around and found that it was impossible to enter the official base without the official base gate, and there were multiple relevant departments nearby. To join the base, one must first apply for a temporary residence permit. With the temporary residence permit, one can enter the base. There is an office building on the inside of the base gate, which is dedicated to the resettlement of all survivors.
The imperial capital cannot return to its pre-apocalyptic state for the time being. As long as the natural disaster stops immediately and there are sufficient resources, it will be able to recover to the appearance of a seventh or eighth tier city in a few years.
"Amo, this is my ideal base. Can we build our base like this? No, it must be safer and stronger, and can prevent any natural disasters!" Lu Xingtang said with shining eyes.
Ji Yanmo said, "We can definitely do it." In this way, they no longer have to flee and can settle down.
Then they entered the office hall for temporary residence permits and asked about the application process. The people in the office hall were very kind to them, the survivors. They did not look down on them, nor did they show any sympathy or pity. Instead, they encouraged them: "Come, I will help you apply for temporary residence permits!"
A staff member led Lu Xingtang and others to get a number and queue up. Because there were many people applying for temporary residence permits, queue-jumping was not allowed. Everyone had to queue up to get their services done, and everyone was treated equally, no matter who they were.
Lu Xingtang liked this fair and impartial style of handling affairs and decided to continue doing so in the future.
Lu Xingtang and his friends waited in line for half an hour before it was their turn. Because there were many people in their group, the process took even longer.
Only then did Lu Xingtang realize that they were actually registering on the computer, but there was no internet. It was not that there was no internet, but it was available for a limited time. Basically, they uploaded the registration information to the internet when they got off work.
There are many computers, mobile phones and tablets in the space, which she stockpiled before the end of the world, and they can be used now.
Lu Xingtang was the first to receive a temporary residence permit. The clerk was a clean-looking man. He looked a little downcast after the trials and tribulations of the apocalypse, but his eyes were bright and full of hope for the future. "Hello, may I ask your name? Where are you from? How old are you? Do you remember your ID number?"
Lu Xingtang replied, "My name is Lu Xingtang. I used to be from the imperial capital and lived in the Sunshine Residential Complex. After the earthquake, I left the imperial capital and it took me ten years to return. My ID number is..."
After the staff member registered, they immediately printed out the identity information, and another staff member took Lu Xingtang to the side to make a temporary residence permit.
The temporary residence permit was a dark red booklet. Due to technical issues, there was no photo, only a steel stamp and her fingerprints.
The staff also gave Lu Xingtang a small notebook, which recorded the current situation of the imperial capital. For example, Lu Xingtang was most concerned about how much of the imperial capital had been restored, how many people were temporarily living there, how materials and human resources were divided, how many types of work and related departments had been restored, and the situation of redeeming points for materials.
This booklet contained everything, and it was extremely detailed, especially regarding the exchange of points for supplies. Every detail was clearly stated. The prices and quantities of many items were even added later. Perhaps because the capital had resumed production and people's needs were increasing, the capital was working hard to find a solution and had come up with a detailed list of points exchangeable for supplies.
Lu Xingtang put it away as if it were a treasure. At this time, Ji Yanmo also completed the registration. Since Ji Yanmo did not have an ID number, the staff asked a few more questions. After confirming that he was a citizen of H country, they filled in a line behind the registration information: suspected amnesia in the natural disaster.
Ji Yanmo told Lu Xingtang the information he had found out. Lu Xingtang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. No matter what, Ji Yanmo had a temporary residence permit, so they could stay in the imperial capital temporarily and learn more about the situation in the imperial capital.
Next was Su Cheng and the others. Since there was only one staff member, Lu Xingtang waited for nearly two hours before the temporary residence permit issue was resolved. Most of the time was wasted with the four children. Lu Xingtang's answer was too harsh. He said that the four children were children of bipeds. Because the children were too young and too innocent, he did not kill them and let them stay.
If these four children were picked up by them on the road, the staff would not have made things difficult for them. However, since they were children of bipeds, the staff had to be cautious. They informed the people from the police station at the neighboring base, and they came to investigate Lu Xingtang and his team. Lu Xingtang told them about what happened in Liwa Village, but he did not say that all the supplies in Liwa Village had been looted by them. However, after Lu Xingtang mentioned Duan Boyu from the Jilin Provincial Military, they immediately contacted Duan Boyu through special means to confirm the matter.
GJ is really awesome, they can actually contact each other. This makes Lu Xingtang very jealous, and he wonders if their base will be able to have such good treatment in the future.
No matter how envious I am, their base has not yet started construction, so it is useless to be happy.
It took some time to contact Duan Boyu. Duan Boyu was easy to find. There was only one person from Jilin Province who had returned from Liwa Village. He was sure of his identity. Through Duan Boyu, they learned that the four children were indeed descendants of Bipeds. The police station then issued temporary residence permits to the four children and told everyone not to spread the news that the four children were descendants of Bipeds.
He also told Lu Xingtang and the others that there were actually many biped children in the Imperial Capital Orphanage. All the children were innocent and could be corrected. Moreover, these four children had not actually come into contact with the meat of bipedal sheep. They only came into contact with it through their mother's feeding, so they were not real bipeds.
Of course, they will also pay attention to these four children and teach them well.
GJ is short of people at that time, so they will not abandon even children, but will take good care of them.
After Lu Xingtang inquired about the orphanage's procedures for adopting children, he asked the police station to issue a certificate, asked for the address of the Imperial Capital Orphanage, and then left the Imperial Capital Police Station.
