Chapter 420: Dropping the Chain
The four looked at Captain Zhang and asked, "Then what identity can we go with? We can't do anything else. Can we go as a teacher?"
Seeing Captain Zhang remain silent, everyone was even more stunned. "No, he really is going to be a teacher. You guys are so relieved."
Putting aside whether they can teach anything, just as teachers, they are even less likely to protect children than security guards, okay?
Captain Zhang explained, "No, if it were before the apocalypse, the higher-ups definitely wouldn't have arranged this. But it's not the apocalypse now. I heard that Lan Jin and Xiao Huang learned their skills from Ling Jiang and Lao Gao. The higher-ups want to send you to the kindergarten to teach some basic courses. The four of you will mainly teach the kindergarten children. I'll assign other people to teach the elementary, middle, and high school classes."
If you think about it more carefully, it seems to make sense. Kindergarten children are too young, so sending someone to teach them some simple defensive moves first is also reasonable.
Is that unreasonable? Aren't there people at the base? They need to teach. If they can spare people to teach the older children, can't they teach the younger ones? This is totally unreasonable.
Lan Jin expressed his concerns, but it was unknown whether Captain Zhang, or the people above him, would listen.
After entering the base, the five of them immediately got out of the car and had a physical examination. Captain Zhang drove the car inside and then sent someone to move the amusement facilities off the car.
Lan Jin's set of amusement facilities is brand new, and is basically the same as the one that Lan Qiaoqiao played in the space. Both use air-blowing equipment to blow up the amusement facilities for children to play on.
The only difference is that before the apocalypse, these facilities were placed outside, and they still had to worry about safety hazards caused by strong winds. Now inside the base, the protective shield is so strong that such safety hazards are simply impossible.
But aren't there any of these things at the base? It used to be that there were. When each city had its own base, each city was allocated a set of these amusement facilities. But as time went by, some broke down, some were damaged, and now it's the turn of the base in City A, and they really don't have any at all.
Lan Jin's set of amusement equipment really solved the urgent need of the base. Having such a set of facilities for people to play in the amusement area can at least give children a place to relax.
Of course, this set of equipment is not given for free. It will be converted into contribution points and deposited into Nana's account. This will not only avoid exposing who among the four of them owns the space, but also add some equipment to the base. Why not do it?
…
Captain Zhang's order was very urgent. He just told them today and notified them to go to work the next day in the evening.
The store can simply close its door and remain unaffected, but what about the food?
There was no other way, so Captain Zhang sent another team member with plant-related abilities to help them take care of this batch of vegetables. After all, they had planted vegetables three times and they really hoped to have vegetables to eat this time.
The four of them went to work in the kindergarten, and the happiest person was none other than Lan Qiaoqiao. The child was so excited that he was almost beaten up by Lan Jin. Anyway, after calming down, they all went to the kindergarten together the next day.
The first day of class was fine, except that there was an extra class that they had never been exposed to before, which was both fresh and exciting.
But as the classes went by, the atmosphere at the base gradually grew eerie. Looking at Nana, who was guarding the kindergarten gate with Captain Zhang, Lan Jin asked, "No, why do you have Nana guarding the gate every day? It's preventing many people from coming in normally."
I don't know what's wrong with Nana. After she stands guard at the door, every time someone comes in, she goes over to sniff them. Some people will be let go after she sniffs them, but for others, she will actually scratch at them.
People who don't know the inside story would think that Nana was touching that person because she liked him, but in fact, animals are more sensitive than humans. They can smell odors that humans cannot smell just by using their sense of smell, and can also lock onto the problematic person in the crowd through smell.
After this explanation, Lan Jin immediately understood Captain Zhang's intention. However, she had also observed Nana at the door. She saw quite a few people scratching at the door every day, not only the kindergarten teachers and the team members at the base, but even the older students.
In short, there are really quite a few people with problems.
After figuring out the problem, Lan Jin couldn't sit still. "No, there are too many problematic people here. If something goes wrong, it won't be enough for the four of us alone. And when are you going to close the net?"
"It's almost there. Just wait a little longer. There's no rush. Everything has been arranged."
But honestly, she didn't really trust the people above her. "Are there no people from the higher-ups among them? This can extend life. Although it's not immortality, it can still make countless people excited. Don't let your authority not reach you, and instead let the people above you control you."
Captain Zhang glared at her and said speechlessly, "You already live in the base, can't you give it a little more trust? Don't worry about it. The base has made arrangements anyway, so just do your job."
"Then you must, must make arrangements properly. We can't afford any unexpected events here."
After saying that, Lan Jin turned around and left. Captain Zhang was speechless and wanted to curse, but the other party was Lan Jin, so he could only swallow his anger. Just tell me if he was angry or not.
Several days passed, and after everyone could clearly sense the more serious and vigilant atmosphere in the school area, Captain Zhang revealed a piece of news, "We're closing in on this in the next few days. You must be very careful these days. Don't let your guard down."
"Of course not."
The four of them agreed in unison, but could everything go so smoothly?
Of course not.
Just one day before the base was about to officially acquire the creatures and wipe them out, a large number of mutant creatures suddenly emerged from various areas of the base.
At first they are just small black bugs. The only harm caused by these bugs is that there are many of them and their bites will cause redness, swelling and pain on the skin. Apart from that, there are no other problems.
When this kind of bug appears, it is easy to deal with it no matter which area of the base it is in.
Superpowers and pesticides are both effective for this.
But when the mutant creatures appeared endlessly and when these mutant creatures grew larger and larger, the team members in some districts could no longer control themselves. Screams and panic continued to erupt in the base, until no one could deal with those mutant creatures, and everyone had the idea of escaping the base.
Once someone starts something, countless people will follow.
