The System Sent Me an Object [End of the World]

Chapter 31

“Don’t you care about it?!” those people questioned Yi Gao.

Yi Gao shrugged: “She hasn’t done anything yet. I don’t have the right to control what she says.”

He looked like he was going to wait for Hao Jian to kill the talents to take care of things. If he were put in a peaceful era, he would surely be sprayed to death, but the guards around him felt very happy. They were chilled by these people, and if they didn’t breathe out, they would really be suffocated.

At this time, a few people in the crowd finally squeezed out, and they said: “Everyone is quiet. Chief Yi also has their difficulties. Those who don’t want to join don’t sign up. Go back obediently and eat together and wait for death. No one will force you. Isn’t it?”

Their words also resonated with some people. The people who took the lead in inciting emotions just now shrank, and those provocative words were also overwhelmed. Although these people with conscience were slower to come out, but it finally made Yi Gao see a little reason for them to support it.

“People involved in the search and rescue work still provide three meals a day, the serving size remains the same, and those who perform well can enjoy preferential treatment.” Elcometer said simply.

“What kind of preferential treatment?” someone asked again.

“Prioritize electricity, water, and get good resources.”

The rewards that seemed useless in the past are extremely tempting to them at this time. It is important to know that the public facilities of the refuge are limited. In order to save space, the toilets are of the type that used to be drained.

There are only about twenty shower rooms. For refuges with tens of thousands of people, taking showers 24 hours a day may not be able to queue up.

And even though there is river water all around, I am afraid that the zombie virus will be carried in the water, so I dare not take it easily. Water resources have become extremely limited. Basically, a person can take a bath every three days, and there is only one bucket of bath water.

As for electricity, it is basically public priority, such as night lighting. As for ordinary people, they may be in line for three days, and the amount of power they get can only charge two cells for their mobile phones.

Although some people feel uncomfortable with such a harsh living environment, the only advantage here is relative safety and food supply.

Let them stay at home, either starving to death or being killed by zombies breaking the door, so compared to being able to survive, the environment is nothing unbearable.

But after they came here, they saw that everyone was the same, and their hearts were naturally balanced, and there was no other pursuit. If someone can enjoy preferential treatment, how can this make them reconciled?

So in just one afternoon, hundreds of people signed up. It’s just that Yi Gao only needs 21 people, and these 21 people will be divided into three groups and go out with them to clean up the zombies. Since returning from the outside requires 48 hours of observation, only one group will go out every day, and the remaining two groups are responsible for the safety and order of the island.

These 21 people must be physically fit and willing to sign the status of life and death. Because of this life and death situation, a group of people was dissuaded, and finally it was night to choose a candidate.

Seeing that the matter was resolved, An Minghui couldn’t help but say to Hao Jian: “You are so bold, so you don’t worry that those lives will deprive you?”

“Do you think that zombies can be wiped out within a year?” Hao Jian suddenly asked a question that the bull’s head is not right.

An Minghui said: “It depends on when the antiviral antidote is developed. Why do you suddenly ask this?”

“Because I think no matter whether such an antidote can be developed within a year, the order will not be restored within five years after the zombie apocalypse.”

An Minghui pondered: “Zombie apocalypse, it’s quite appropriate to describe it.”

Hao Jian wouldn’t describe this era like that if the situation improves, because the emergence of the system makes the situation more severe than they thought.

“So you need to use extraordinary means in extraordinary times. With your usual set of rules, you can maintain order for a period of time, but you can’t maintain it for a long time.”

An Minghui smiled: “No one knows about the future. When the day comes, the situation will change and the rules will change.”

An Minghui asked Hao Jian and Lian Ruing to arrange a tent for them to rest so that they would have energy and strength tomorrow. Everyone also prepared a basin of water: “It is specially prepared for you for the sake of your courage to give. Although a basin of water is not very useful, it is okay to wipe your body.”

Hao Jian and Lian Runing had already deliberately ignored the hygiene situation, but since the other side thought of them in this way, they didn’t need to be hypocritical.

After wiping his body, Hao Jian went to Xin Ting.

Xin Ting’s situation was actually similar to that of them, because after her arm was checked for no injuries, they gave her some medicated oil to rub.

However, Xin Ting has been using the medicine Hao Jian gave her to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, which may be the cause of the psychological effect. She felt that the effect of the medicine seemed to be very good. Symptoms can be reduced a lot.

“They didn’t embarrass you, did they?” Hao Jian asked her.

“No, how could you come out?” Xin Ting craned her neck, “Where are Peng Mao and Ru Ning?”

“They are resting. I came to tell you one thing.”

Xin Ting was a little nervous, and her sixth sense told her that it is nothing good for ordinary people to say such things. But this is what Hao Jian told her, maybe it would be good news?

“Tomorrow, I have something to go out with Lian Ru Ning, and your arms are not good yet, so please stay here with Peng Mao!”

Xin Ting breathed a sigh of relief: “Where are you going?”

“I can’t say that. If we come back alive, we will still leave. Then you and Peng Mao will be here. After all, it is safer here.”

Xin Ting was very sure that the meaning of “stay here” in Hao Jian’s sentence was different from the previous sentence. She subconsciously opposed: “Are you going to leave me?”

After she finished speaking, she also felt that what she said was a bit wrong, and said: “I mean, you are planning to go to Southern City together with the two of you?”

“Well. Are you afraid of not being able to live alone, and afraid of facing zombies? Here, there are more than 10,000 people with you, and there are people protecting you. It is far safer to stay here than to follow us.”

Xin Ting opened her mouth, trying to say something, but couldn’t say it.

Upon seeing this, Hao Jian went back.

If she had been alone in the past, she would not have explained so much to others at all. Every decision she made, the right to choose was in her own hands. However, in the past few days, she also regarded Xin Ting as a companion, so she informed her a little responsibly.

Back at the tent, Lian Ru Ning was sitting on the lawn and looking up at the night sky.

This Jiangxin Island was originally a place for sightseeing. The lawn was naturally indispensable. Although it was almost withered by being trampled on before, but after a drizzle a few days ago, these grasses grew tenaciously.

Hao Jian said, “How do you feed mosquitoes outside?”

Lian Ru Ning smiled and said: “I am wearing long sleeves, hey, sit down and watch the stars too!”

Hao Jian sat down beside her, but remembered a question, and asked the system in his mind: “Can mosquitoes spread viruses?”

“The host problem is exactly what existing experts are studying. According to preliminary studies, animals in the Arthropod phylum are very sensitive to Q viruses, and once Q viruses are implanted in their bodies, they will die. So they are not Does not have the ability to carry the Q virus and infect humans.”

Hao Jianfu Zhimin: “Does that mean that humans can use the sensitivity of arthropods to Q virus to develop relevant drugs or materials to detect people who are infected with Q virus?”

“correct.”

It’s a pity that Hao Jian didn’t study this area, otherwise he would join the research after he knew the research direction.

While talking to the system, Hao Jian listened to Lian Ru Ning and talked about the differences in the night sky everywhere. Her single-minded and two-use skills have reached the point of sophistication, and even practicing Ru Ning did not notice anything wrong.

“It’s rare to see so many stars, although it is less than what I saw when I participated in the summer camp, but here is a city, the night sky of the city has not been so shiny for a long time!”

Hao Jian said: “Perhaps after the disaster, no one was driving, the factory stopped working, and the biggest source of pollution became zombies, so the natural world has taken back the scenery once taken away by humans!”

“When I was young, my parents said that the stars in the sky changed after people died. Now they look alike. There are tens of millions of people who die every day these days, and then there are more stars in the sky… The words of the ancients are not unreasonable.”

Hao Jian didn’t feel so sentimental about Ru Ning, she got into the tent: “I’m a little sleepy, don’t you rest?”

“…” Lian Ru Ning felt that Hao Jian was pretty bad at times, but considering that Hao Jian didn’t have enough sleep time, it is rare to sleep longer, so she didn’t say anything.

Back in the tent, this small tent barely allowed two people to sleep, and in the cramped and windless environment, both of them felt very bored.

Lian Ru Ning simply switched to short sleeves, but she was a little embarrassed to see Hao Jianzai, so she turned her head and asked Hao Jian: “I change short sleeves, you…”

Hao Jian closed his eyes: “I won’t look. There is no light in the tent, and I can’t see clearly. Besides, you have looked at my body completely. I think it is even if I look at it?”

Lian Ru Ning’s face flushed, she stared at Hao Jian, only to find that Hao Jian also talked about her, and the whole person turned around and was confronted by her.

She changed her clothes quickly and was lying down facing Hao Jian. Then she thought about it. They looked like a quarrel, so she turned back to lie down.

It happened that Hao Jian turned back when she heard the movement, and her hand carried Lian Runing’s hand. The latter only felt that the back of his hand was covered with a cool palm, as if something had spread from his hand to his heart.

Hao Jian was about to move away, but Lian Ru Ning held her hand with her backhand, a little embarrassed: “Your hands are cold and comfortable.”

“Comfortable, then hold it longer!” Hao Jian said.

Lian Ru Ning didn’t know what she was thinking just now. She actually said something like this to Hao Jian, but in this hot summer, there were no fans, air conditioners, or fans. These were the coolest objects she could touch.

“Why don’t you say anything?” Lian Ru Ning asked.

Hao Jian opened his eyes and looked at her with a faint smile: “Do you like listening? Or do you like me teasing you?”

“No!” Lian Runing quickly argued, “I just think that you are more energetic!”

She met Hao Jian for a very short time, but just a few days have allowed her to know Hao Jian more clearly.

Previously, Hao Jian gave her the impression of being smart, venomous, calm and self-sufficient, as well as having a mature age that does not meet this age, and sometimes even not as perfect as a person.

It is precisely because she can laugh, tell cold jokes or swear words that she can see her more real, and she feels that she is actually just an ordinary person.

Hao Jian chuckled in a low voice.
