Chapter Twenty-Eight: Newcomer Report (I)
The first thing that catches the eye is a small fountain that has stopped coming out, the white marble fountain building is a three-story lotus platform, the bottom pool is surrounded by a circle of evergreen shrubs, and the flower beds at the four corners are dotted with some seasonal flowers, which looks elegant and vibrant. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info behind the fountain is a small square, the square is surrounded by a circle of courtyard landscape trees, even in the late autumn season, the trees are still green, as if yesterday's disaster did not bring any impact. Behind the square are two rows of high-rise buildings in an arc, arching over a patchwork of villas in the middle. From a distance, the sparkling waves of the Bishui River surrounding the community appear and disappear from time to time, flowing slowly.
Yang Lan looked at the scenery of this community and couldn't help but sigh: "It's so beautiful, I've never seen a community designed like a street park, doesn't this developer lose money?" ”
Yang Lan's voice may have been a little louder, and among the people who followed, some nodded their heads when they heard it, and some laughed without saying anything. However, the two princess sick girls may have been relaxed because they had arrived at a safe place, and they were not timid and scared when they looked at them. They looked at Yang Lan's dress, glanced at each other, and sneered, with a mockery on their faces.
Qin Qin looked at Yang Lan's somewhat embarrassed expression, and said a little angrily: "It's very beautiful here, Sister Lan, you're not wrong." Captain Zhang, since everyone has arrived at the community safely, this escort can also be over. We'll take advantage of you and register first. ”
Zhang Hao knew in his heart that Qin Qin's resignation was mostly because the two girls laughed at Yang Lan, so he was angry, and deliberately reminded him that it was time for them to leave. In fact, he really couldn't get used to those girls who had an inexplicable sense of superiority and thought that they would follow them all the time, so he hurriedly answered: "Well, since that's the case, then let's separate here." If you want to join our team, you can come to me to sign up, of course, the premise is that you dare to follow us out to fight zombies, and we don't need logistics staff for the time being. ”
Qin Qin waited for Zhang Hao to finish speaking, and didn't look at the two gnashing teeth-gritting faces, smiled and greeted Zhang Hao and his party, and then pulled Yang Lan to turn around and leave. Zhou Beichen nodded to Zhang Hao slightly apologetically, and beckoned Lu Letian, Dou Le and Zhao Qi to follow along.
On the left side of the plaza is a light gold three-story building, and the stone dome at the entrance of the first floor is exquisitely and luxuriously decorated, and it is thought that it was used as a sales center before. Nowadays, the housing in the community has been almost sold, and the sales center has been used for other purposes. Perhaps considering the high price of the houses in the complex, the developer did not convert the sales center to other commercial uses, but kept it and rebuilt it into the property center, as well as the swimming pool, gym and lounge that are only open to residents of the community.
Qin Qin walked into this gorgeous building with his team members, but unexpectedly found that the furnishings inside were quite simple. Qin Qin didn't know what the hall was like before, but now it was empty, except for its own fixed decoration, only a simple set of tables and chairs was placed on the right hand side, and a young man who looked quite immature was lying on the table and napping.
Qin Qin stepped forward and knocked on the table, the young man suddenly woke up, and quickly wiped the corners of his mouth, deliberately putting on a professional smile on his green face. He looked at the crowd and said, "Are you, newcomers?" ”
"Well," Qin Qin nodded, "We just came to this base, and the guard at the gate said that he would come over to report first." ”
"Oh, it's a newcomer." The young man looked at this group of brothers and sisters who were not a few years older than him, and involuntarily rose up with the desire to chatter. He has been here for half a day, and he has not received several waves of people in total, so he is really stuffy.
"Then let me tell you about the history of our base first." The boy sat up straight excitedly and began to speak, "Well, there's no history, the base is just established. Ahem, here we go. Last night, it was a dark and windy night, and there was a group of unfortunate people who somehow turned into bloodthirsty zombies. They have forgotten their own identities, forgotten their original relatives and friends, and used the flesh and blood of the people around them to fill their stomachs with eternal hunger. Trapped in the barracks and surrounded by hundreds of zombies, Commander Chen finally escaped here with his brothers after a hard battle. When he saw the familiar name of Bishui Huating, he suddenly remembered that a certain leader seemed to have mentioned this community. Ah, Heaven have mercy, thank you for this newly developed high-class community, which has neither hordes of zombies nor panicked and chaotic crowds. Luckily, Chen found the spare keys for each household at the property, so he no longer had to take his brothers to pick the locks from door to door. When he looked at the sparse and sparsely lit people's homes, the blood in his chest was stirring, and he decided to save the people from fire and water at the first time. He sent people to visit the dozens of owners who had already moved in, and cleaned up the seven or eight families that were more unlucky and turned into zombies. Looking at the people who were saved with gratitude on their faces, he loudly announced that he would swear to guard the community to the death, arrange people to patrol regularly, and regard the safety of the community as the first priority. He has a family in his heart and calls out to ...... with the radio"
Qin Qin wiped her cold sweat and interrupted the reception boy who was obviously a little overexcited and had a very high potential as a storyteller: "This, this little classmate, as for me, history has always been bad, so I won't trouble you in class." Can you get to the point? ”
"Well, well, it's another group of people who don't know how to respect history." The young man nodded a little depressedly and began to explain seriously. "All newcomers who want to join the base must fill in the basic information of their personal information here, and each person will take a blank piece of paper. We haven't had time to print the form yet, so you just need to write down your name, age, ID number, and occupation on paper. In the future, if there is anything that needs to be added, someone will contact you. In addition, once you have written it, I will write the base number assigned to each of you on a blank piece of paper, and I will remember this number, and I may contact you later with the number instead of the name. In addition, you will need to fill in this number when you go to check in for your accommodation in a moment. Let me check, what number is there now? ”
The young man looked at the stack of white paper with words on the table as he spoke, and the corners of his mouth twitched when he saw the last one, and then he sincerely looked at Qin Qin, who was the first to write the message and handed it in, and said in a rather gentle tone: "Sister, you are so lucky, don't blame me." ”
Before Qin Qin, who was confused, had time to ask a question, the young man picked up his pen and wrote the five numbers 00250 neatly on the upper right of the page handed over by Qin Qin.
Qin Qin looked at the numbers and then at the young man, and said sadly: "How much hatred do we have and how much resentment do you want you to treat me like this?" I just don't want to hear you talk about history, do you have to take revenge on me like this? ”
The young man scratched his head in embarrassment, turned to the last page of the stack of papers, pointed to the number 00249 and said to Qin Qin: "It's really not my deliberate revenge, you can see for yourself, you just happened to be number 249 in front of you." ”
Qin Qin's voice trembled and asked, "Then can I hand it in later?" ”
The young man pursed his lips, put the white paper with Qin Qin's information written on it into the bottom of the stack, and said with a straight face: "It's not right to cheat, and the form that has been handed in can't be modified." So be it, number two hundred and fifty. ”
Qin Qin's forehead was full of green tendons, and Zhou Beichen quickly grabbed her, and comforted: "Qinqin, it's okay, it's just a number." Besides, no one knows about it except us, so we won't spread it. ”
Qin Qin's finger pointed to the young man and said firmly, "He knows." ”
The young man quietly rolled his eyes, looked at Qin Qin, who was about to run away, and said reluctantly: "Okay, I promise, except for the insiders of the base, I won't tell outsiders your number, it's all right?" ”
After Zhou Beichen and Yang Lan's efforts to appease, Qin Qin finally reluctantly accepted this too coincidental number. The three newcomers who joined looked at this scene, both wanting to laugh and being afraid of hurting their captain's face, and the last one was so red that he coughed repeatedly.
Under the guidance of the warmly received teenagers, Qin Qin's team walked into the corridor on the left side of the hall and came to the door of a room with a registration sign on it. The door of the room was open, and Qin Qin tapped twice as a sign of politeness, and then walked in first. This room is very spacious, with a very stylish desk in the middle and a few large bookcases in front of the walls on both sides, which look like they are newly added, and the colors are not very harmonious with this room. Behind the desk, several large boxes are piled up in the corner, and there are a lot of biscuits, instant noodles, bottled water and other materials inside.
Qin Qin glanced at the room twice, then turned his attention back to the person sitting behind the desk. It was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties, with a square face, small eyes, and a nose bridge, and his appearance was not quite worthy of the audience, and there was a slight fierceness between his eyebrows. When he saw someone come in, he was still crooked in the wide boss's chair, and he didn't sit up straight, but just greeted lazily: "Newcomer?" Where are you going to stay? ”
Qin Qin looked at the other party's attitude of ignoring the answer, and didn't want to bother to speak, she nodded and said, "Yes, we just came, what are the options for accommodation?" ”
The middle-aged man said weakly: "If you don't dislike it, living in the basement and parking lot is completely free, with two square meters of space per person." If you want to be better, you can share a single room, calculated according to the size of the area. 10 square meters to five packs of biscuits or three bottles of water, biscuits at least 100g or more, water to more than 500g, the time is a week. We do not guarantee that you will be able to be placed in one house, and each house only has a common kitchen and toilet, and all other rooms are rented, including balconies. ”
Zhou Beichen saw Qin Qin looking at him with an inquiring gaze, so he stepped forward and asked, "Then if we want to rent a small apartment, it doesn't need to be too big, just two bedrooms and one living room." ”
The middle-aged man sat up straight, looked at a few people seriously, and showed a somewhat mocking smile: "Little brother, listen to my advice, I see that you didn't bring much supplies, why waste good things on this, you will regret it when you are hungry in a few days." ”
When Qin Qin heard this, his impression of the middle-aged man was a little better, although this person didn't seem to be a good person, and his tone of voice was not good, his heart was not bad, and he actually took the initiative to persuade his group to save some money.
Zhou Beichen said: "Thank you for the reminder, but we still want to rent a small apartment, may I ask for this price?" ”
When the middle-aged man heard this, he cut it, lay back on the boss's chair, and still said lazily: "This smallest apartment is 80 square meters, and it charges 30 packs of biscuits or 18 bottles of water." If you don't have enough biscuits, bread and instant noodles will do. Let's start with it, this is the price of the first week, and then it will go up. ”
