Chapter 555 8000 Clever Ideas
"You guys go first, I'll be last," Yun Zhao said softly.
She's a very capable team leader.
Xie Tu, recalling her bad luck last time, calmly took the notebook with the note inside.
"To be fair, I'll take it."
Since Yun Zhao knew he didn't need to draw lots, he handed him the notebook.
Who wants to go first?
In front of everyone, Xie Tu took advantage of Yun Zhao's inattention, turned his back, opened the book, glanced at it, and quickly turned back to signal them to draw.
Xia Mingang: "..." Does it have to be this obvious to cheat in front of people?
Jiang Mu chuckled but didn't expose him. "I'll go first."
Fu Yu watched his subtle movements, her gaze shifting between the other three.
When was the last time she washed the dishes?
Three years ago? Or five years ago?
Jiang Mu pulled out a white strip and gestured for the others to draw one.
Fu Heng had already grasped the rules of the game and, one step ahead of Xia Mingang, drew another white bar.
Now only two slips of paper remain tucked inside the book.
One red stripe, one white stripe.
Xia Mingang stared intently at the book, almost to the point of obsession. Just as he was about to pull it out, the book suddenly turned around and was handed to Yun Zhao.
Xie Tu gestured to Yun Zhao: "He's too slow, you go first."
Xia Mingang: "..."
Yun Zhao also felt that he had been watching for a long time but was reluctant to make a move.
It's too late now.
She was still waiting to get home and frame Yun Jue.
Yun Zhao casually picked the slip of paper that was sticking out on the right and reached out to pull it out, but the slip of paper stuck in the book wouldn't budge.
Xie Tu held it down tightly, making it impossible for him to pull it out.
Yun Zhao stared at Xie Tu with a speechless expression.
She was so clever that she instantly realized it was a red slip of paper.
Wouldn't it be wrong to cheat like this?
Xia Mingang has only just joined. What if he feels that others are deliberately targeting him?
Xie Tu remained expressionless, leaned down and whispered in her ear, "From now on, we'll take turns washing the dishes. If you do the work today, you won't participate in the lottery next time."
The implication is...
Actually, everyone has to do it; today it's just a matter of choosing who goes first.
Those present were all S-class sentinels, so Xie Tu's whisper was no different from reciting aloud.
Xia Mingang chuckled. Looks like he can't escape tonight.
For some reason, he grinned and suddenly became very agreeable, saying to Yun Zhao with a flirtatious tone, "It's okay, you smoke, I'll keep the rest."
Yun Zhao turned around to look at Xia Mingang. Although he felt that Xia Mingang's attitude had changed somewhat strangely, he still insisted on Xie Tu holding down the thing.
She's the team leader now, so for the sake of team harmony, she should be the first to do the dishes.
Xie Tu sighed and loosened his grip.
Yun Zhao successfully pulled out the note.
The result was a blank receipt.
Yun Zhao: "..."
Jiang Mu and Fu Mo coughed lightly, turned their backs, and remained silent about Xie Tu's actions of switching the police officers while Yun Zhao turned around.
Their guide captain was completely lazy and inactive.
Oh well, let's just consider it a good first time.
Xia Mingang held the last red slip in his hand, looking indifferent, and even shook his head in a pretentious manner.
Then, in front of everyone, he made a phone call to the sentry team that had escorted him from Hope Base.
"Guan Hong, I'm at Zero Team's training ground. Yes, it's urgent. Bring your men over here right away."
The call ended.
Xia Mingang crossed his arms, looked at everyone provocatively, and deliberately dragged out the last syllable, "Excuse me, I suddenly remembered that we are still at the base. We didn't say beforehand that we couldn't call in outside help, did we?"
How wonderful!
There are people readily available to serve us now.
He'll leave the day after tomorrow, and next time everyone else will have to do it themselves; he's perfectly dodged a round.
The stone tablet with the shape of a bixi (a mythical tortoise) seemed ready to spring to life.
Yun Zhao looked at everyone with mixed feelings.
It's just washing dishes, do people really need to make such a fuss?
What should I do when I enter the contaminated area and start doing tasks?
Xie Tu remained expressionless. "We're leaving now. You can handle things here."
"I need to go back and arrange the team's training first." Fu Yu then stood up.
Jiang Mu calmly called to the white mythical beast: "My little darling, go back and rest. We'll play with them slowly after we set off the day after tomorrow."
The four men walked out of the training room and drove away in three cars.
Yun Zhao's brows remained furrowed even after he got into the car.
"What's wrong?" Xie Tu asked her.
Yun Zhao leaned against the car window, his voice weak and listless, "It's nothing, I just feel that being the team leader is too difficult."
Xie Tu had long held sway as captain, and with just a glance, his teammates dared not misbehave.
In comparison.
Her newly appointed 5S team leader is practically like a kindergarten teacher; her main role is probably to mediate disputes within the team.
The little bluebird bid farewell to the white-haired beast, flew into the car, heard this, and arrogantly raised its head, ["Beat them up!"]
Fire Phoenix excitedly chimed in: "That's right! Let's beat them up! I'll go!"
The little bluebird, rarely translating, emphasizes: "I'm the strongest! I can win even in a two-on-three situation."
Yun Zhao: "..."
The thought of five S-class spiritual beings fighting together sent chills down her spine.
Xie Tu smiled slightly and drove the car back to East Third Street.
Yun Zhao carried the photo frame into the room, carefully framed her father, and then placed it in the most conspicuous position on the bedside table.
Xie Tu was silent for a moment.
Feeling that it was inappropriate for her father-in-law to watch the two of them sleep, she subtly suggested that they place the photo frame on the cabinet near the entrance.
They said it was the first thing they saw when they entered the house every day.
Yun Zhao thought he was right. They could see it when they ate in the living room. She grabbed the photo frame and ran out of the room, placing the photo in the most conspicuous place.
The little bluebird flew to the cabinet, stood in front of the picture frame, tilted its head to look at it, and proudly told the phoenix.
This is my dad!
Fire Phoenix leaned closer: "Daddy!"
...
The next day.
The day before Team Zero departed.
Bai Yu came over early in the morning to deliver local specialties, and her little mouth kept chattering as soon as she entered the door.
"How can someone be so unlucky? Yesterday, when we left your place, Wei Xu insisted that I go to the hospital with him, and my dad caught us red-handed."
Bai Yu complained, "When my dad saw that I didn't go home immediately, he came to the outer city to look for me. The look in his eyes when he saw Wei Xu startled me. Then he asked me about his ancestors for eighteen generations, like he was conducting a household registration investigation."
“Wei Xu got a minor injury on the way, which is why I agreed to accompany him to the hospital. He just arrived at our base and doesn't know anyone there, so I couldn't just leave him there…”
Yun Zhao listened silently, unsure of Minister Bai's true attitude.
I don't know what advice I should give Bai Yu regarding matters between men and women.
So she nodded, pointed to the photo frame on the cabinet, and deliberately changed the subject, "Have you opened the box and seen it? That's what my dad looks like."
"My dad actually invited Wei Xu to our house for dinner, saying he was thanking him for taking care of me all the way. What did he take care of me for?" Bai Yu found it incomprehensible.
Yun Zhao agreed: "I think my dad is so handsome, more handsome than any other man in the world."
Why didn't Wei Xu refuse?
Bai Yu exclaimed angrily, "He actually told my dad he wanted to buy a house in the Dawn Base!"
Yun Zhao felt this was very important: "There's only one apartment left in my building, and I gave it to the search team to use as a warehouse. I'll have to buy a house once I find my dad."
"Are the property prices in the base expensive?" Yun Zhao asked.
Bai Yu was led astray by her and hesitated, saying, "I've never bought one before, but it depends on the location. There are a few properties for sale in the inner city, but most of them are for family members or relatives, or descendants who haven't awakened yet. Anyway, unless you're a sentinel or guide, the base doesn't assign them."
Yun Zhao was relieved to hear that there were houses for sale: "It's fine, I have plenty of money."
