Chapter 281 Scars of the Times



It was four o'clock in the morning on the third day after the disaster.

Linjiang City.

Large-scale civil defense measures No. aq247.

It is now temporarily renamed Linjiang City Survivor Base.

Stay in the private lounge.

Lin Miao carefully put on the equipment he had asked for from Awei and the others.

It was a set of equipment consisting of an engineering shovel, a set of special anti-wear fiber clothing, a dozen emergency glucose injections and other items.

It includes various functions such as ruins excavation, protection, life detection and maintenance, emergency medical treatment, and emergency transportation.

She is about to go on a mission.

I will be going out with the exploration team.

After her father knew her identity as a temporary special member of Yongzhou, he agreed to let her participate in the post-disaster reconstruction mission.

But when wearing equipment.

She couldn't help but recall her experiences of the past few days.

After all the monsters died the day before yesterday.

She and her father Lin Yun, A Wei, Li Hongtu, Liu Xinyue, Zhou Ziying and a group of people finally returned smoothly to the AQ247 large-scale civil defense facility, which is now the Linjiang City Survivor Base.

Father Lin Yun received good medical treatment here.

After the disaster, humans showed vigorous vitality, and the rapid replenishment of medical resources was an important manifestation of this.

After all, it is one of the major projects for post-disaster reconstruction.

It's about rebuilding the medical system.

Father Lin Yun’s arm injury was treated briefly for just over a day, and he was taken away for treatment yesterday by the medical reconstruction guidance team that came from the capital.

The rest of them were able to lie down and rest for a while after a long time.

But among them.

Zhou Ziying was given a new monitoring and positioning bracelet by a joint inspection team of the central government and Yongzhou, and her range of activities was delineated.

This is a necessary limitation for the awakened ones.

During the entire disaster, the awakened ones were under the supervision and control of Yongzhu.

Some suddenly launched attacks and took the opportunity to cause trouble.

There is no time to manage during a disaster.

Now that we have entered the post-disaster reconstruction phase, Yong Zhou and the central government have formed an inspection team to hunt down and suppress the awakened people who are causing trouble.

To the obedient awakened ones.

It is also inevitable that an additional layer of protection and monitoring is needed.

Zhou Ziying is no exception.

However, given her outstanding performance in cooperating with the Everday members to rescue refugees during the disaster, there are no restrictions on her scope of activities.

And Awei and Li Hongtu.

According to Yong Zhou's instructions, they continued to stay in the Linjiang City Survivor Base. Anyway, Yong Zhou was basically taking a semi-public attitude now, and the Linjiang City Survivor Base still needed some manpower to assist in management.

They just need to be busy for a while.

Wait until the people from the Central Government of China arrive in a few days.

There is no need for Ah Wei and Li Hongtu, two members of Yong Zhou, to continue to participate here.

After all, although the abyss monsters mainly attack the area within the seven black energy barrier circles, their attacks outside the circle are also concentrated in places where the power of Eternal Day is greater.

As a result, out of the eight billion people who should have had little ability to resist, only two billion died. Among them, nearly seven or eight hundred million died. In fact, those who died were people within the circle. In a sense, the casualties were not extremely great.

But after all, billions of people died and the whole world suffered a heavy blow.

I can only say that it hasn't been hurt thoroughly yet.

It will take a few decades for things to get better.

So the situation outside is better than inside the circle.

It will still take some time to operate and recover before we can arrange personnel to take over the various survivor bases.

Awei and Li Hongtu need to continue to serve as the main persons in charge of the Linjiang City Survivor Base and manage the entire base for a period of time.

As for Liu Xinyue.

Yesterday, he returned to the Eternal Day headquarters along with the Eternal Day members who came to look for him.

According to Yong Zhou's arrangement, she will go to other places where she is needed to exert her power.

after.

According to the “Instructions on carrying out post-disaster civilization reconstruction work with major survivor bases as the core, Phase I” issued by the central government.

The entire Linjiang City survivor base began to act in accordance with this guidance document.

The food rations of a large number of survivors in the Linjiang City Survivor Base were replaced with work-for-relief.

This is not because there is a shortage of supplies.

In fact, the country’s grain reserves are enough to feed the entire nation for several years.

Even the food contained in the large-scale civil defense facility AQ247 is enough to feed the survivors for a year.

Change to work-for-relief.

It is more for the purpose of maintaining stability and finding a job for all the survivors, while also helping the survivor base to quickly acquire some labor force.

This will do nothing but good for restoring order.

besides.

This is the core essence of the people-oriented post-disaster reconstruction policy.

We are carrying out exploratory actions in surrounding cities with the focus on rescuing lives and collecting supplies as a secondary priority.

The exploration team consists of half of the army and a small number of militia.

Lin Miao chose to sign up without hesitation.

The exploration team chose to agree to the participation of this special person, after all, there is still a shortage of manpower in post-disaster reconstruction.

Awei and Li Hongtu also understood that because of the spiritual nourishment, this child could no longer be simply viewed as a child.

So I chose to allow it.

And when she finally put on her equipment.

While I was teasing the sleepy hamster Meowth on my shoulder, there was a knock on the door of the lounge.

Lin Miao paused while teasing the hamster Miaomiao.

Then he opened the door and poked a little head out.

I saw Li Hongtu coming in front of me without knowing when.

He looked at Lin Miao.

After a moment's silence, he said, "The smell of burning is a little lighter today. Do you still need a breathing mask?"

Hearing this.

Lin Miao didn't say much, just shook his head.

She naturally understood what Captain Li Hongtu meant.

The smell of burning.

Refers to the foggy sky.

The smell of burning wafts around.

This smell is almost equivalent to death.

It is the last wail left by countless dead people in this world.

Her mother's body.

It was also burned to ashes in the symbolic collective burning memorial the day before yesterday, in front of her and her father who had been discharged from the hospital specially for the occasion.

Became part of the dust.

Since ancient times, whenever there is a major disaster, there will be a major epidemic.

Too many people have died in these days, and the bodies must be collected in a timely manner. This is also what some teams in the exploration team have to do.

She was not chosen.

To be precise, considering that everyone basically has corpses they want to collect, the corpse collection team is basically composed of half of the army, the outer members of Yongzhou and the tough-minded militia.

Only they can guarantee not to hesitate.

All the corpses in the city that may cause epidemics can be disposed of as quickly as possible.

The so-called body collection work those people have to do is to burn all the bodies as quickly as possible on the spot and nearby.

After all, there were too many corpses.

It is best to solve the problem locally.

Apart from symbolically bringing back some corpses the day before for everyone to identify, and then collectively burning them in memory.

All the bodies were burned on the spot.

The exploration team did not have enough energy to transport the bodies to the survivors' base.

But even so, the work of collecting bodies began as soon as the disaster ended the day before yesterday, but in fact, not all of them have been burned as of today.

Misty sky.

"Then let's go."

"Today's destination is still Xicheng District. Teams One and Two have been busy all night and are waiting for Teams Three and Four to take over."

"I heard that this time they found three survivors hiding in a pit in a public toilet. It was really difficult for them to survive."

Li Hongtu saw that Lin Miao didn't need a mask.

I briefly talked about today's goals.

The exploration team's exploration operation is mainly aimed at rescuing people, and is intended to find survivors outside the survivor base, hoping to find some surviving humans in the places where monsters once roamed.

This kind of work naturally cannot be stopped.

However, everyone’s energy is limited, so the exploration team has to work in shifts day and night.

Hearing this.

Lin Miao nodded and walked out of the room without saying anything else.

Seeing this, Li Hongtu immediately turned around and led the way, walking towards the three teams of members who had gathered outside the survivor base in Linjiang City.

Lin Miao's mature and calm performance.

Li Hongtu has always expressed respect.

Although this is just a junior high school girl.

However, as she is in tune with the awakened pet and has been baptized by spirituality, she should not be treated as an ordinary person at this moment, either in terms of her character or abilities.

Except for the day before yesterday when he and Awei found Lin Miao and spanked her for leaving the survivor base without permission.

Li Hongtu has always viewed the little girl Lin Miao from the perspective of a comrade-in-arms.

When I realized that Lin Miao was not in the mood to reply.

He didn't use any childish words to try to communicate.

The two of them just walked quietly.

Just walked out of the underground part of the survivor base in Linjiang City and came to the above-ground part.

The cold wind blew across my face.

Make the air you exhale visible to the naked eye.

Through the foggy air, you can find that the stars are still faintly visible in the sky at four o'clock in the morning.

There should be open space around.

Today, various large and small iron tents and modular buildings are scattered around several planned main roads.

This is after the disaster, according to the plan, the people and the army in the survivor base will expand outward to appropriately increase the living happiness.

The original underground civil defense measures were the innermost circle of the survivor base in Linjiang City.

The area around your feet is the outer circle of the Linjiang City Survivor Base, which is under construction in full swing.

The three teams waiting to gather will have to stay further outside.

The two walked along the main road.

In addition to the sentry boxes arranged at fixed distances and a five-man military team patrolling from time to time.

Only a few people come and go.

Most of these survivors were looking around and walking quickly and quietly.

Looks sneaky.

It’s not that they have any unreasonable expectations.

But those who cannot learn to be quiet and alert have been eliminated by the doomsday.

The doomsday, which lasted just a few days, has quickly left indelible habits on many people.

This is not only reflected in the few sleepless people who are wandering around and keeping watch.

If you look carefully you can see it.

In addition to the temporary hospitals, food distribution stations, work-for-relief task reception points, missing family member information registration offices and other buildings officially built by the survivor base on the roadside.

Dormitory buildings for survivors were built in one day using modular technology.

Many windows were covered with thick newspapers.

I can't really see what's inside.

This is because the survivors couldn't help but bring their own survival habits with them.

There are many more besides this.

For example, many survivors today never waste any food when they eat, and spraying alcohol and other pungent smells in their living areas has become a habit...

Perhaps, in the future when order is restored, incense with highly stimulating smells will be particularly popular.

Because many survivors have left behind the instinct that this smell can give people a sense of security.

The doomsday crisis left such a deep impression on them that they would never forget it for a long time in their later lives, and it was also destined to leave an indelible scar on this era.

Thinking.

Lin Miao suddenly asked.

"Uncle Li."

"Is Uncle Ying okay?"

Lin Miao looked at Li Hongtu, whose body suddenly froze.

She asked the question she had hesitated for a long time.

These days...

Besides often missing Captain Duan Guanghong who sacrificed himself, often going with my father to the collective burial ground to mourn my mother, and often chatting with several friends who had been through thick and thin together...

The question she cared about most was: How is Uncle Ying?

Logically speaking, Yongzhou's communications should have been completely restored. Uncle Li Hongtu and the entire survivor base have been following Yongzhou's dispatch arrangements these days.

so……

After it's all over.

As the head of the mobile task force of the former Yongzhou Linjiang City Base, Li Hongtu should have received news from the base commander Ying Zhongtang.

After Ying Zhongtang cooperated with the official members of the surrounding cities to form a formation and work together to hold back the Thousand-Eyed Demon Lord.

Is he still alive?

Regarding this issue.

She had always wanted to ask.

However, facing Lin Miao's question, Li Hongtu was speechless for a long time.

Lin Miao understood.

It wasn't because the onset of winter's cold had frozen him.

He just didn't know how to answer, and his panic made him freeze.

Li Hongtu responded in silence.

That’s actually the most obvious answer.

Lin Miao lowered his head.

I always feel that the winter wind is a little colder.

Somehow the scene of my first meeting with Uncle Ying came to my mind again.

[Don't be afraid, Lin Miao. ]

【I am your father's friend.】

It was these two sentences that calmed her down after she accidentally witnessed a bad guy being electrocuted by the hamster Meow Meow.

Since then.

As long as Uncle Ying is around, she is not afraid of anything.

Only now...

"I don't know the details either. The post-disaster reconstruction work is still going on."

"As a non-core member, what I need to do now is mainly to follow the arrangements."

"Not only do personal matters like mourning the deceased and reuniting with family members have to be postponed, but even specific intelligence does not need to be known for the time being."

"What I know is that the higher-ups simply announced to us the survivors of the former Yongzhou Linjiang City base, and told us how to arrange the remaining personnel, who we can command, and who we should obey..."

"You can ask Ah Wei. He is currently the temporary top leader of the Yong Zhou Linjiang City Base. He may know a little more than me."

Li Hongtu was silent for a long time.

He said this to Lin Miao for a long time.

Upon hearing this, Lin Miao simply raised his collar to cover his cheeks and mouth, leaving only his expressionless eyes exposed.

"Let's go, our teammates are waiting for us outside the base."

"Possible survivors in Xicheng District still need us."

She said.

Continue forward slowly but firmly.
