Volume II, The Boundary of the Mirror 192, This is my duty

Suzaku City No. 17 Emergency Evacuation Center.

When Li Hao saw this line of words on the wall, he knew that this shelter was not built temporarily, in fact, Suzaku City, as a super city near the sea, whether it was for disaster prevention or national defense and security considerations, such a shelter should be said to have always been in the urban planning.

But Liu Xinrong's words also made Li Hao clearly realize that this official refuge must not be under the control of the official at this time. He thought of many possibilities, but when he actually walked into the shelter, the scene inside was still a little unexpected.

The first is that the facilities inside this shelter are very complete. Although this is an underground facility, the internal planning is very complete, there are living houses, streets, shops, and even a small square, there is a musical fountain on the small square, and there is even a simulated sky overhead, through the change of lights, you can also simulate the weather changes, if you don't look carefully, you will think that it is real.

Secondly, there were more people here than Li Hao expected, Li Hao and Zhao Ji followed Liu Xinrong through the street, through the small square, and finally arrived at the administrative center opposite the square, and the number of people he saw on the way was probably no less than 300 people, if you count the indoor ones, it should not be less than 500 people. 500 people are not a lot in a normal elementary school, but in the end times, this is already a large community.

And Li Hao went all the way and found that there were more survivors than women, and even fewer elderly people and children, which is easy to understand, after all, in the face of zombies, adult males have the highest chance of surviving.

followed Liu Xinrong into the administrative center, and did not see the "far brother", but walked into a room with a "registration room" sign. Think about it, since that "far brother" is the boss here, how can the boss casually let a new survivor see it?

The person in charge of registration in the registration room was a woman, about 40 years old, with a mediocre appearance, a little fat, wearing a uniform of unknown departments, and a sign on her left chest, but it was not a name tag, but the three numbers "025".

"New here?" 025 glanced up at Li Hao and Zhao Ji, and his tone was as flat as boiled water, neither happy about the increase in survivors, but also disgusted with the newcomers.

"Uh-huh." Li Hao hurriedly nodded and said, "My name is Li Hao, and this is my daughter-in-law Zhao Ji." After saying this, there was a piece of meat on his leg that hurt fiercely, and he didn't need to look at it to know that Zhao Ji pinched him, Li Haoxin said Little sister, you are a little bird, isn't this one playing? That's really ...... Alas, who to reason with.

In fact, Zhao Ji doesn't like to use the trick of "pinching" a little woman, but after all, she can't still raise her hand to punch Li Hao in the face.

025 was indifferent to their names, and simply noted their gender in her notebook, asking, "How old?" ”

"I'm 30, my daughter-in-law is 20." In fact, Li Hao didn't know how old Zhao Ji was, but he couldn't be older than him anyway, fortunately, he wasn't pinched this time.

"Holy!" Liu Xinrong said very unhappily on the side: "You old cow eats tender grass...... I don't think my little sister has graduated from college yet, right? You've only known each other for a few days? He felt that with their age difference and Li Hao's bland appearance, he would definitely not be able to marry a daughter-in-law like Zhao Ji under normal circumstances, of course, the survivors could meet together after the disaster, and there were not too many people who could be husband and wife by the way. The most infuriating thing is that he has never met such a little girl who wants to have a figure, a face, and is so young and tender, so he scolded and scolded in his mouth, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became.

025 continued to take notes, and then said, "We don't have idlers here, what can you do?" ”

Li Hao said: "I am a writer. ”

"! What the hell! Liu Xinrong was even more unhappy.

Li Hao said: "When I was in college, I was the president of the student union, I had certain organizational and management skills, I passed the fourth level of English, and I had a lot of certificates......

025 looked up at him impatiently and said, "That is, there is nothing to do, and it is all miscellaneous everywhere, right?" She lowered her body and took out a number plate from the bottom drawer and threw it on the table, and said to Li Hao: "When it's over, you take this sign and report to the No. 4 Street Management Office." Then without waiting for Li Hao to speak, she looked at Zhao Ji again and asked, "Are you really husband and wife?" Don't look at him. She didn't look at Li Hao when she asked this, probably because she didn't think Li Hao's words could be trusted.

While she asked this, she was thinking about something, Li Hao estimated that if Zhao Ji said that they were not really husband and wife, maybe Zhao Ji's arrangement would be different.

Zhao Ji really didn't look at Li Hao, just lowered his head and said, "Yes, our two parents arranged it for us when we were young, and we will set up wine when I graduate from college...... We are already ......" The last few words, the voice was so small that it was almost inaudible, Li Hao sighed in his heart, this acting, it's a pity that Xiao Zhao doesn't go to make movies.

"Holy!" Liu Xinrong was upset next to him again, and said angrily: "What kind of century is this, me!" And parents do it? Why didn't I meet Nima? ”

Zhao Ji glanced up at him and said, "It's not an arrangement, we grew up together, and I like him a lot." My mother said that the men outside are unreliable, and they are still reliable to watch them grow up......"

025 waved her hand, and she also impatiently took out a sign and threw it on the table, the difference is that Li Hao's brand is blue, Zhao Ji's brand is red, Li Hao's number is 514, and Zhao Ji's is 174, and then she took a key and threw it on the table, saying, "Okay, okay, then you go to the logistics team to find Team Leader Gong to arrange work for you." This key is for your assigned room, room number is 494! Remember, there are no idlers here, you will have food after completing your own work, and if you are hungry and unable to do anything, then get out! With that, he waved his hand and signaled that they could go out.

After coming out of the administrative center, Liu Xinrong didn't care about them anymore, and he was still scolding in his mouth, obviously very dissatisfied because Zhao Ji's flower was not inserted in his pile of cow dung.

Seeing Liu Xinrong walk away, Li Hao and Zhao Ji went to their room first, the room was on the main road when they came, and there were number plates, which were easy to find.

I took the key and opened the door to enter, it was a very small room, smaller than the rental house in the old apartment building, it felt like it would not be more than 10 square meters, there were no windows, only two ventilation fans were constantly rotating, and the roof was very low, at most 2 meters, which gave people a very depressing feeling. The furnishings inside are simpler, except for a small bed of 1.2 meters, which is two chairs and a very small square table. A total of these pieces of furniture are numbered, and they are all metal, it is estimated that they have not been used for a long time, although the material itself is good, but many places have been oxidized.

There is no futon on the small bed, and there is not even a cup to drink water in the room, the only more humane place is that there is a corner in this small room, and a semi-closed bathroom is made, there is a squatting toilet in it, and there is a sink inside, Li Hao went to turn on the faucet, and the water that flowed out was still clear, but with a strong smell of disinfectant water, it was definitely not possible to drink it directly.

There are lights, there is electricity.

Li Hao pulled a chair and sat down, looked at their number plates, and said with a wry smile: "Although I am not superstitious about numbers, but ...... I'm 514, I'm going to die, you're 174, let's die together, our room is 494, death is death, how decrepit is this Nima? ”

Zhao Ji walked up to Li Hao, patted him on the head heavily, and said, "Don't swear!" ”

This time the fight was quite painful, Li Hao grinned and said, "Also, what do you want to make trouble?" At the beginning, if we were stronger, maybe we would be treated differently now. ”

"And then?" Zhao Ji clasped his hands and said, "What kind of squad leader will you be, you are also like that Liu Xinrong?" ”

Li Hao said: "That's okay. I really didn't expect that there would be so many people in this small shelter, and it was well-organized and had a clear division of labor, so I don't think they came here after the disaster, but like they have been living underground for a long time. ”

Zhao Ji said: "This is what I want to know. ”

Li Hao shrugged his shoulders and said, "What do you know?" If they did live here for a long time, would you think that this disaster was premeditated by them? IMHO, this place is a good place, but if you want to say that the people here are capable of causing this disaster, then my opinion is ...... They don't deserve it yet. I won't say anything else, the inquiries and inspections of our two outsiders are very sloppy, and there is not even a virus test, you don't look at this like an underground city, in fact, there is no sense of science and technology at all, the key is that there are some old things here, there is no room for development, and they do not have the strength to make such a big move as a virus disaster! ”

Zhao Ji said: "You don't know, in recent years, there have been some bizarre cases of missing people in Suzaku City, and the police have conducted a lot of investigations, but there are no results. It was only after I entered this area that I suddenly realized that under normal circumstances, these shelters are hidden and closed to the public, and if the missing person is hidden inside, then it can indeed avoid the police investigation. ”

Li Hao wanted to say that it was just the incompetence of your police, but knowing that he would definitely be beaten if he said so, he asked: "Now that the world is over, is it meaningful for you to investigate this matter?" ”

Zhao Ji clasped his hands and said, "This is my duty." ”

Li Hao choked for a moment and said, "You are so reasonable, I am speechless." But then again, even if you find the criminal of the year and solve the case of the year, so what? If the criminal took in these hundreds of survivors, would you still arrest him? ”

Zhao Ji said: "If it was really the criminal back then, do you think he took in the survivors just out of kindness?" Li Hao, a disaster is a disaster, and we can't take it for granted that reversing black and white because of a disaster. Do you know? The line between life and death is simple, but the line between man and what is human is not so simple. If everything is taken for granted, if we can do without that line, then this catastrophe has destroyed all mankind, and humanity deserves it. ”

"Okay," Li Hao shook his head and said, "Even if what you say makes sense, do you think that the two of us can do this with just the two of us?" ”

Zhao Ji smiled and said, "There are so many survivors here, how do you know that there are no allies for us?" ”

Li Hao shook his head again and said, "No matter what, there is nothing here, if you want to fill your stomach, go to work first." ”
