Chapter 418 Traitor?
They said they were looking for Captain Zhang, but in fact they could have looked for any captain in the base. It’s just that they are most familiar with Captain Zhang, so it is naturally most convenient to find him.
Speaking of weapons, the four of them were getting a little restless. Lao Gao suggested, "Why don't we go check out the weapons now?"
"But the captains are busy with the settlement of people in the official base. They don't have time to take us to see the weapons." Huang Jinghe said.
"Let's give it a try. We're fine anyway." Lan Jin suggested, then got on his bike and rode towards the hall.
On the lobby side, the first floor is the lobby and the upstairs is the office area, which is very similar to the architectural style of H City.
They rode their bikes from the amusement area to the office without stopping for a moment. Even at the fastest speed, it still took them a full half hour to get there.
When they arrived at the lobby, the last group of team members had just returned to the base. The captains were incredibly busy. Upon hearing Lan Jin and the other three's request, Captain Zhang was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. "You guys really have so much free time, don't you? We're all so busy, how can we spare any time to do this? If you really have time, why don't you come and help us?"
There was no need to help. Lan Jin said, "Xiao Huang's father just called us and said that we can start planting tomorrow, so we wanted to come over today to check out the weapons. Whoever is free, we will start working tomorrow."
Captain Zhang said, "But I really don't have time right now. How about tomorrow? After you've planted the vegetables this morning, I'll take you to see the weapons this afternoon. Besides, not only me, but everyone else doesn't have time right now."
Seeing the residents lined up at the door waiting to move in, Lan Jin and the other three felt bad for wasting their time, so they agreed. "Okay, okay."
"It's almost time anyway, let's go pick up Qiao Qiao first and come back to see you tomorrow."
Seeing that the four people agreed, Captain Zhang suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
Watching the four men leave, Captain Zhang said, "They're always trying to cause trouble for me."
Captain Wang asked curiously, "What's going on? What are these four up to?"
Captain Zhang said helplessly, "They wanted to buy weapons right after arriving at the base, but I persuaded them to go back. I don't have time to take them there right now."
Captain Wang smiled and said, "Okay, buying weapons for self-defense will also help protect the base better. That's a good thing."
"It's a good thing, but I'm too busy right now. Let's take them there tomorrow."
…
It was agreed that tomorrow would be the day after tomorrow. After planting the vegetables in the morning of the next day, Lan Jin and the other three found Captain Zhang again in the afternoon.
Although Captain Zhang was still busy, he couldn't fail to do what he promised, so he took the four people to the weapons sales area on the 6th floor of the office area. However, Captain Zhang, who was here for the first time, was also shocked, because there were no weapons here and all the counters were empty.
Captain Zhang asked the former base members at the door, "Where are the weapons here? When I asked about it tomorrow, they said there were weapons here. Why are there none today?"
The team member at the door replied, "No, we were planning to put the weapons up for sale today, but then we got word from higher-ups that there's no rush and we'll put them up later. So, the weapons haven't been put up for sale."
Captain Zhang asked, "When will it be available?"
But in fact, they don’t know either.
But this is not Captain Zhang's fault. Captain Zhang said, "It's not that I don't allow you to buy it, it's just that they haven't been delivered yet. Why are you in such a hurry? The weapons won't run away. Wait a little longer. And if you ask me, you really should wait. You have helped the base a lot along the way, and these can be converted into contribution points on your residence permits. With the few contribution points you have now, you may not be able to buy any good weapons. Wouldn't it be better to save up more before buying?"
"You didn't say that yesterday." Lao Gao complained a little. The main reason was that he was too much looking forward to buying weapons. He had been thinking about it since yesterday until today. But when he arrived, there was nothing. How could he not be disappointed?
"I didn't think about it yesterday. With so many people just arriving at the base, it was so chaotic. Who could remember these little things?"
The most important thing is that during this period of time, they really found out that there was a traitor in the base, but they have not yet figured out what the traitor's purpose is, and they don't know how many traitors there are, but this matter must not be leaked.
As for letting so many people come back at this critical moment, it’s because the traitors suddenly did nothing. If they don’t do something, how can they lure people out?
They just concealed some things and monitored everyone in all directions. They concealed the information from those who were even slightly suspicious and would never leak any information out.
So now we are just waiting for something to happen.
Lan Jin and others returned disappointed, and knew nothing about what happened next. They just had to live their own lives well.
A few days later, after Huang's father delivered the key to the store on the commercial street, the four of them started to get busy again.
The small umbrellas sold for a while, and while business was good, there was a lot of inventory left. Ling Jiang said, "We can still sell these for a while. After all, they're so expensive. Once these are sold, we can look for something else to sell. Lan Jin, didn't you want to get rid of that amusement park ride earlier? Why don't you talk to Captain Zhang and find a chance to take it out so it doesn't take up space?"
"OK."
Then they found Captain Zhang again.
Captain Zhang saw that it was the four of them again, and he couldn't help but feel a little scared. "Why are you here again? You're busy with farming and running a shop, aren't you busy enough? How did you find time to look for me? Could it be that you're doing renovations? No, that's not right. Lao Gao can do that too, so you shouldn't be looking for me."
"No, no, it's like this..."
Lao Gao whispered the story to Captain Zhang, who was immediately surprised and said, "No, you even have this."
Lan Jin said, "I was already quite wealthy, and I only had one child, so naturally I wanted everything I wanted, so I bought it. But it was too big, and I thought it was too much trouble, so I never used it. After I got my superpowers, we put it away. Now it can be used. We went to the toddler area a while ago, and there were several empty spaces there, perfect for making some space for the child to play with."
Ling Jiang said, "I just don't know how to get the things out. After all, we didn't bring anything when we came back, and we don't want to expose our space."
Captain Zhang rolled his eyes when he heard this. "You think you can stay out of the spotlight just because you don't want to. Where else can you find supplies out there? I'll find a way to cover it up for you. I'll contact you when I think about it."
