The next morning, when Xie Xuan opened the door, she was startled by the person standing outside.
The ghost behind her, who had always looked gloomy, had been standing outside her door waiting for her at some point, with bloodshot eyes and a dark pool under his eyes.
Xie Xuan suspected that Mr. Ling would have killed himself without waiting for her to cheat.
Seeing Xie Xuan coming out of the room, Ling behind him turned around and walked towards the elevator without saying a word.
Xie Xuan didn't want to talk to him either, so she walked to the elevator door and opened the terminal to read the news.
It has been a few days since the ecological organization's experiment in District 13 ended, but there is still no report about the experiment.
Not only was there no report on the experiment, but Xie Xuan also didn't see the blame for the murder of representatives from the Ecological Bureaus of Districts 9 and 10, which the ecological organization wanted to put on District 6, in the Confederation News.
However, this is also expected. The situation of Districts 9 and 10 is not much better than that of Districts 11 and 12. It is only a matter of time before they follow in the footsteps of District 13. For them, there is no benefit in making enemies with the ecological organization for a few dead people.
Xie Xuan and Bei Ling took the elevator downstairs together. The guide was already waiting at the restaurant door.
After a simple breakfast, the three of them officially went to the 111th Branch on 1090 Street to report.
Xie Xuan saw in her employee background that her branch had been transferred to the development department of Branch 111. Although she had not been in Branch 45 for a long time, she still felt a little inexplicably sad when she saw this.
However, Xie Xuan quickly threw these unnecessary emotions out of her mind. She now had to consider how to survive outside the wall.
The drive from 1088 Street to 1090 Street took less than an hour. The guide parked the car in front of the Ecological Bureau and asked Xie Xuan and Beihou Ling to get off.
The ecological bureaus in the six districts all have similar structures: pure white buildings with low floors and a large open space around them.
This is the case with the Ecological Bureau headquarters on Street 2, Branch 45, and of course Branch 111, but the difference is that there is no bustling scene of people coming and going at the entrance here.
"I'll take you to get your protective suit and communicator first. The protective suits and communicators of the Development Department are different from those of the Containment Department."
The guide led everyone into the Ecological Bureau. As soon as Xie Xuan entered, she heard someone shouting, "I'm coming! I'm coming! Hurry up! The opponents are all low on health!"
Xie Xuan was stunned for a moment, turned around and looked over, and found five people sitting on the sofa in the hall, each holding a controller and playing games.
The guide coughed lightly. "Because our area is vast and sparsely populated, the territory rarely appears during the rainy season. Plus, the pioneers stay inside the wall during the rainy season, so there are many people and few tasks. However, due to internal regulations, the containment department must be on standby within the Ecological Bureau, so they get together in their free time to play games and so on."
The guide paused and said, "Our director is very humane in his management. He generally doesn't punish employees for things like this."
As soon as he finished speaking, they saw a middle-aged man walk out of the elevator. Seeing the people gathered in the corner playing games, he immediately walked over and shouted, "You! What are you doing?! Playing games openly during work hours! Fine! No one will be fined two hundred!"
Xie Xuan:……?
The guide coughed violently several times, then turned around and covered his face with his hands as if he had choked on his own saliva.
After the middle-aged man paid the fine, he walked towards Xie Xuan and the others.
He looked to be in his forties and a little overweight, but he looked very kind. Although he had just cruelly issued five tickets, he did not give people the impression that he was difficult to get along with.
Xie Xuan guessed that this should be the director with a very humane management style that the guide had just mentioned.
As expected, the middle-aged man extended his hand toward Xie Xuan and said, "Xie Xuan, right? Hello, hello. I'm the director of Branch 111 of the Sixth District Ecological Bureau. My last name is Xiang. Welcome to Branch 111."
Xie Xuan quickly returned the handshake, "Thank you, and hello, Director Xiang."
Director Xiang glanced at the spirit behind him, and looked up and down at his blue and white uniform. Just when Xie Xuan thought he would at least say hello symbolically, Director Xiang withdrew his gaze and said to the guide, "You go and do your work. I'll show Xie Xuan around here."
The guide said okay and left in a hurry.
Director Xiang turned to Xie Xuan and said, "He should have told you about our 111th Branch on the way here. In other branches, the rainy season may be the busiest time of the year, but in branches like ours, which are close to the high walls and have the Development Department stationed there, the rainy season is actually the quietest time of the year."
He checked the time and said, "There's less than a week left until the end of the rainy season. During this time, you can get familiar with the environment here and your future colleagues."
Xie Xuan nodded in agreement, "I heard my teammates haven't arrived yet?"
To the Director: "They haven't arrived yet. The earliest one seems to arrive this afternoon."
Before he took Xie Xuan into the elevator, he finally spoke to the spirit behind him, "Sir, I see you look haggard. You should go and have a good rest. Xie Xuan has already arrived at Branch 111, and your mission is halfway completed. There's no need to keep following me."
Director Xiang was standing at the elevator entrance. Xie Xuan had already entered. He looked very happy, but he remained firm and said to the spirit behind him, "I'll let you know when Xie Xuan cheats. Before that, you can stay at the guesthouse on 1090 Street for a few days."
The spirit behind him seemed to want to say something, but in the end he just nodded slightly and turned away.
Director Xiang turned and entered the elevator. Xie Xuan asked curiously, "He actually gave up so easily?"
He smiled at the director and said, "We're all just workers. There's no need to work so hard. Isn't it enough to complete the task and report to the higher-ups?"
Xie Xuan felt that it should be more than that.
But Director Xiang quickly changed the subject, "Although the pioneering teams are going outside the wall in groups of five, considering the high risk outside the wall, we will designate exploration areas and routes for each team before they go out, ensuring that each team is within an hour's travel distance of the other two teams. This will make rescue easier."
Xie Xuan nodded, thinking that this arrangement was quite reasonable.
"Are you an A-level mutant now?" Director Xiang suddenly asked.
Xie Xuan: "Yes."
Because the information of the Development Department cannot be found on the internal website of the Ecological Base, Xie Xuan is not sure how many A-level mutants there are in the 111 branch.
But considering the high risk of exploring outside the wall, Xie Xuan guessed that there were at least ten or more.
