Others agreed that this made sense, and if all else failed, they could use a communicator to contact the capital.
Thinking of this, everyone turned their gaze to Chi Xiaoyu: "Is your communicator fixed yet?"
Chi Xiaoyu was the last to come up to the rooftop. The reason she came up so late was to assemble the last part. Seeing everyone's attention focused on her, she calmly said, "I just finished assembling it and I can talk to the capital at any time. I came upstairs to tell you this."
Everyone was already dressed up, so what were they waiting for?
They went to Chi Xiaoyu's room in a grand procession.
Chi Xiaoyu turned on the device and carefully searched for radio waves for a while before finally hearing a voice: "This is the Imperial Radio Liaison Center. I am operator number 1206. How can I help you?"
Everyone was very excited when they heard the voice on the radio.
After discussing it, Qiao An'an and the others decided not to reveal the matter of the immune person for the time being. The news they received in the capital was that the second antigen carrier had died. In the past few days, when they listened to the program, there were people who falsely claimed to be antigen carriers and sought rescue from the capital. Later, they were all found to be deliberate deceptions to get priority rescue.
There was even an announcement from the capital.
From now on, anyone who claims to be an antigen carrier will not be treated.
So when asked by people in the capital, Qiao An'an simply said, "We are survivors and we want to seek help from the capital."
Upon hearing Qiao An'an's voice, the other end paused, remaining silent for a long time: "..."
Qiao An'an was a little surprised. She turned to look at Chi Xiaoyu: "Is there no signal?"
Chi Xiaoyu checked and was also puzzled: "Yes?"
A voice came from the capital city again: "Excuse me, our signal was interrupted just now. You said you needed help. Could you please tell us your names, number of people, and location?"
Qiao An'an and the others told the people in the capital about their location and number: "My name is Qiao An'an. There are eight of us: three adults, one elderly person, two children around fifteen or sixteen years old, and two four-year-olds. The name of this hotel is Huiyou."
From the capital: "That's very close to us. Don't worry, just wait for rescue. We will send a rescue team to you as soon as possible."
The reason Qiao An'an and the others contacted the capital was that they had already reported to the capital, so even if Chi Ming came to rescue them, he would think twice before silencing them.
But what they really want is for someone to rescue them.
So he tentatively asked, "When will you send someone to rescue us?"
The reply from the capital city was: "There are two teams of search and rescue personnel ready to go in the safe zone. I will give them your information, and they will pick you up when they come out. Stay in the building and don't go anywhere to avoid missing our search and rescue personnel."
Hearing this answer, Qiao An'an and the others felt relieved and prepared to wait for rescue from the capital.
Qiao An'an, however, felt something was off: "Don't you guys think this customer service representative's voice from the capital city sounds familiar?"
Li Jianguo: "Isn't that how all customer service representatives speak?"
In the capital city.
Xia Lanlan froze the moment she received the distress call, because she recognized the voice on the other end. When she heard the voice say that her name was Qiao An'an, Xia Lanlan was almost certain that the person on the other end was Qiao An'an. But didn't the broadcast say that the second antigen carrier had died in a plane crash?
No one survived on the plane. Qiao An'an and the others should all be dead, so why were they still able to talk to her and even come to the outskirts of the safe zone?
Xia Lanlan was very flustered.
She was afraid that once Qiao An'an and the others entered the safe zone, they would reveal that she had refused to open the door to protect herself.
The safe zone has a very strict screening process for survivors. Once it is found that someone has done something against public order and morality after the outbreak of the apocalypse, they will be severely punished.
What she did wasn't serious enough to warrant severe punishment.
But there's certainly no way I can continue sitting here receiving distress signals from all over the country.
The job of answering distress signals is not only free from the elements but also well-paid, but she worked hard for it for a long time and didn't want to be transferred back to farming.
She has to do something.
After calming herself down, Xia Lanlan first cautiously glanced around. Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, she quietly deleted the distress signal she had just received from her computer.
Then, while pretending to have a stomachache and going to the toilet, she picked up the walkie-talkie and contacted Chi Ming.
Xia Lanlan met Chi Ming after entering the capital. The two knew from the first glance that neither of them was innocent, so they reached an agreement to keep their secrets.
In Xia Lanlan's mind.
Chi Ming should be even more afraid of encountering Qiao An'an and her group than he is, after all, he has indirectly caused the deaths of quite a few people, so he would definitely be happy to help eliminate Qiao An'an and her group.
This walkie-talkie is a high-powered walkie-talkie deployed in Beijing, with a communication range of up to 150 kilometers, but the signal is not as good at longer distances.
It took Chi Ming a while to recognize Xia Lanlan's voice.
Feeling guilty, he naturally didn't dare answer the phone in front of his teammates. Instead, he made an excuse about a bad signal and went to a more distant place to answer: "I'm on a mission. Is there something you need to tell me?"
Xia Lanlan: "Is there anyone else with you?"
Chi Ming: "After hearing your voice, how could I dare to have anyone else around me?"
Xia Lanlan told Chi Ming what had just happened, and then added, "I remember you brought a mortar this time. You told your teammates that the terrorists you were looking for were on the fifth floor. These terrorists are extremely vicious. To be on the safe side, you suggested that we just bomb them. I have already deleted the distress message. As long as you wipe them out, no one will know about our past."
When Chi Ming heard that Qiao An'an and the others had arrived, his first thought was whether his daughter was also inside: "What if Xiaoyu is inside too?"
Xia Lanlan reminded Chi Ming: "You treat her like a daughter, but she may not treat you like a father. Aren't you afraid that she will betray you for the greater good? I don't care. At most, I didn't open the door, which is a moral issue. But you are different. You abandoned pregnant women, the elderly, and your teammates, causing so many deaths. You will most likely be expelled from the safe zone or sentenced to death."
Chi Ming felt extremely irritated by Xia Lanlan's words.
When he first left Fang Yuyang and his group in the capital, he thought that Fang Yuyang had money and assets and could make a name for himself in the capital. But who knew that the house he left in the capital and the gold in the safe were nothing in the apocalypse. He really wanted to live, so he reluctantly became a patrolman.
He didn't want to be expelled from the safe zone, much less sentenced to death: "Okay, I understand."
