Chapter 8 - Hidden
012 Interior of the bunker.
Xu Zihao talked:
"I have been with Zixuan for eight years. We went to the same high school and the same university..."
"Affected by the rumors of doomsday, the economy was in a very bad mood, and we didn't find a job after graduating from college."
"You also know that the rent in Jingzhou is too expensive..."
"We both held on for several months, spent all our savings, and were finally driven out by the landlord."
"That's when my buddy told me that Doomsday Bunker was recruiting volunteers."
"Oh, it's the guy who was bitten to death by a bug. He was working as a temporary worker in the 010 bunker..."
"I thought about it, it would be a good idea to volunteer."
"Sleeping in a dormant cabin, you don't have to pay rent or spend money on food, it's a killing of two birds with one stone!"
"The biggest advantage is that after the test is completed, the official can help arrange the work."
"I signed up with Zixuan and signed the longest agreement directly for two years!"
"When we come out, we will go to work hard, and then get married... and buy a house with a loan..."
After hearing this for a long time, Lu Chengming couldn't help but interrupt Xu Zihao, "Cough cough, sorry, can you talk about the situation of the 010 bunker first?"
"Ah, okay, okay." Xu Zihao grabbed his head and finally started to talk about the serious matter.
010 is worthy of being the largest doomsday bunker in Beijing, and has successfully awakened more than 300 people.
However, the problem arises, the food that has not yet deteriorated in the storage room is not enough for these people to eat in a day.
Some people started to snatch food, which soon caused a riot, with countless casualties and injuries.
In the end, a man named Lei Xiong led more than ten accomplices to control the entire bunker.
He was originally the security captain of the bunker, and it is said that he was once a mercenary and had extraordinary skills.
Lei Xiong ruled the bunker with cruel means, and anyone who disobeyed him was directly executed.
Xu Zihao's buddy was frightened because she had offended Lei Xiong, so she stole a gun and fooled Xu Zihao and Feng Zixuan to escape together.
Later I met Lu Chengming.
"There are security personnel in 010, so are there management and technicians?" Lu Chengming asked the most concerned questions first.
Xu Zihao replied: "Maybe there are, but not many. My buddy said that the disaster occurred during the annual holiday. At that time, most of the staff went home on holidays, and only about twenty people on duty were left in the bunker. One night, the doomsday alarm suddenly sounded, and he didn't understand the situation, so he hurried into the dormant cabin..."
"It turns out to be like this..." Lu Chengming finally understood some of the situation where the doomsday came.
"Oh, now, I won't have to find a job anymore and rent a house!" Xu Zihao muttered again, "Brother, how did you and your sister-in-law move in?"
"Ah?" Lu Chengming was stunned.
This is the second time that Xu Zihao has called Sister-in-law Su Yurong.
When I called for the first time before, Su Yujun did not deny it. Maybe she was confused.
This time Su Yurong didn't hear that because she was not there, she was probably tasting bread fruit at the lower level...
"Xu Zihao..." Feng Zixuan quietly poked Xu Zihao and signaled him not to talk nonsense.
She seemed a little afraid of Lu Chengming. Even though she entered the bunker, she was always panicked in her eyes.
"Well--I won't talk for now. I'll find some food for you, don't run around..." Lu Chengming stood up and left.
"Thank you, brother!" Xu Zihao thanked quickly.
"You don't have to be so polite." Lu Chengming walked down the stairs quickly and locked the iron door of the stairwell.
Then, he rushed directly to the kitchen on the third floor and found Su Yurong and Tang Wan'er.
The two were discussing how to eat bread fruit and baked a few slices.
When Su Yurong saw Lu Chengming, she smiled sweetly, "It really has the flavor of bread, it is soft and delicious, and it is quite delicious."
"Yeah, it's delicious." Tang Wan'er was holding half a piece in her hand.
"Let's eat later. Let's hold a meeting first and discuss some serious matters." Lu Chengming pulled a chair and sat down.
"Have a meeting?" Su Yurong was slightly stunned.
Lu Chengming said in a deep voice: "Today I accepted two outsiders. I must discuss with you two how to arrange those two people in the future."
"The bunker is yours, of course you have the final say." Su Yujun doesn't care.
"No, you two are also important members of the 012 bunker. I will respect your opinions." Lu Chengming looked serious.
Tang Wan'er couldn't help but smile, "So, are we considered veterans of 012?"
"That's right." Lu Chengming nodded.
Tang Wan'er said, "I heard from Sister Su that those two people seem to have good character, so I have no objection."
"It seems that there is no problem at the moment, but I restrict them from only moving on the first and second floors." Lu Chengming was very cautious. "I will not give them access cards for the time being. There are still only three of us who can use them below the third floor."
"It's prudent enough, I'm worthy of being a man who has lived in the end of the world for a hundred years..." Su Yu's velvet eyes circulated, "Aren't you afraid that we will harm you?"
Lu Chengming said lightly: "Only I can guarantee the safety of you two. You two are not stupid, so there is no reason to harm me."
"What does it mean to be stupid?" Su Yurong frowned slightly, "As long as you don't distribute me randomly, I will definitely not harm you."
"When did I say I would assign you? I clearly gave you the right to choose..." Lu Chengming also frowned.
Su Yurong hummed lightly: "Straight man..."
"The second thing is that we need to establish a temporary management system." Lu Chengming pretended not to hear it and continued to say the serious matter. "In the future, I will continue to awaken the rest of the people, or accept more outsiders according to the situation. The more people there are, the more management system is needed, otherwise there will be chaos. Tang Wan'er, you are responsible and get a draft of the system first. Is it okay?"
Tang Wan'er hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "No problem."
Lu Chengming continued: "The third thing is food supply. I have no problem raising you two, but I can't raise too many people. Well, there is no obligation. When there are fewer people, it can ensure food supply by collecting and hunting. But if we want to rebuild civilization, we must expand our population. Now we have to build farms and slowly restore traditional planting and animal husbandry."
"Okay, okay." Su Yurong clapped her hands gently.
"But the situation is very chaotic at the moment, and we are likely to encounter raiders..." Lu Chengming's tone sank, "So, I decided to close the location signal of the 012 bunker, so that our bunker will disappear on the mobile phone map, and it will be difficult for others to find us. At present, only I have this kind of operation permission, and others cannot do it."
"In other words, in the future, others are in the light, we are in the dark..." Tang Wan'er blinked, "We observe everything in secret, develop secretly, and independently choose members who can accept... It feels pretty good..."
"Then it's settled?" Lu Chengming looked at Su Yujun again.
"Everyone listens to you." Su Yurong nodded with a slight smile.
Lu Chengming took out his mobile phone, entered the system settings, and turned off the positioning signal transmission of the bunker.
By the way, I went to check out the chat interface again.
"Liu Bei" is still recruiting people with great fanfare, with many responders, but not many people dare to go through.
But I never found anyone on the 010 bunker.
That Lei Xiong was probably also observing in secret.
Chapter completed!
