Three off-road vehicles full of craters moved slowly on an iron bridge, tires crushing against the iron plates on the bridge deck, and there was a non-stop clattering sound.

In the back seat of the off-road vehicle, a short-haired young man leaned against the car door and stared out the window, it was Chen Xin who came from the riverside outpost.

"The front is the boundary of Sioux City, Chen Xin, because you haven't officially joined Luhua yet, so you need to get out of the car for inspection", the driver squeezed a pair of small eyes and said sideways with an apologetic face.

"Didn't get hired? Chen Xin is already my person! The girl who was sitting in the back row with Chen Xin suddenly clenched her fists and shouted loudly.

Chen Xin smiled, but did not correct the meaning of the misunderstanding in the girl's mouth.

"Just follow the rules."

The girl almost jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and her head hit the roof of the car, making a "bang" sound, "Chen Xin, I know you have a good temper, but in Suzhou City, don't lose my face!" ”

The girl seemed to think of something again, and looked at Chen Xin angrily, her eyebrows wrinkled together.

Chen Xin raised his eyebrows and looked at the girl with his waist crossed in front of him, as if he was a little puzzled. But before Chen Xin could speak, the off-road vehicle had already stopped.

"The Awoken?" The window of the car had already been pressed down by Li Hengda, and more than a dozen heavily armed soldiers outside the window looked coldly at the car, and the soldiers closest to the car narrowed their eyes slightly, looked at Chen Xin and asked, "A little fresh, new here?" ”

Chen Xin looked out the window with some surprise, and the soldier who asked him was actually an awakened person. Although it is only a first-order awakened person, the awakened person is the awakened person, no matter which force it is, the awakened person is a very small number of existences, at least according to the normal awakening ratio, there are only 10,000 awakened people in the entire Jiangbei at most, and many of them are still scattered in various settlements.

But Luhua Company actually arranged an awakened person to stand guard at the gate of Sioux City, that is, on an iron bridge! Only then did Chen Xin have an intuitive understanding of such a large force as the Jiangbei Seven League.

"Hey, he's my recruiter, do you still want to check?!" , The girl suddenly opened Chen Xin and shouted out the window.

The pupils of the first-order warrior outside the window shrank, and his fingers subconsciously moved to the trigger, but when his eyes moved to the car, his brows furrowed again, and he immediately stood up and saluted, "Hello sir!" ”

The eyes of the first-order soldier were excellent, and the sight in the car was not good, but the captain and the female major in the back seat were seen at a glance. He didn't know the captain, he just looked familiar. But the female major in the back row was impressed.

After all, a girl with such a high military rank who has no strength is also rare in the entire Sioux City, and I am afraid that only a place like the president's office can appear.

But the first-order warrior gritted his teeth, looked around again, and still said in a loud voice, "Please cooperate in getting out of the car and checking." ”

"You! ......", the girl's eyes widened, pointing at the first-order warrior.

The car door opened at this time, and Chen Xin slowly got out of the car, "It won't be long, right?" ”

The first-order warrior outside the car was a little surprised, his footsteps took two steps back, looked at Chen Xin and waved his hand, "It won't be long, just go through the instrument once." ”

The first-order warrior could vaguely feel that the strength of the awakened person in front of him was definitely not weak, and he might even be stronger than the captain in the driver's seat.

Stronger than the captain, isn't this short-haired young man the school officer's foundation? Although I don't know why this person is so polite, it is not a bad thing for the first-order warrior himself.

The task of standing guard is not easy, especially the first checkpoint here in the Iron Bridge. Because it is extremely far away from the city hall of Sioux City, something inconsequential will not disturb the city, so the company bosses who pass by these sentry posts usually whistle directly.

Of course, according to the regulations, these bigwigs who broke the card must have violated the rules, but letting go of their sentries will inevitably suffer a dereliction of duty. Therefore, for the person in charge of the sentry, it is extremely difficult to choose whether to report or not, after all, making a small report means offending people.

Li Hengda is very aware of the hardships of this sentry, however, this kind of thing is only an officer above the rank of colonel can have this kind of thought, he is a third-order captain, if he really drives an off-road vehicle to break into the card, it is impossible to say that before he has driven five hundred meters, he will be bombarded into a fireball by the outer defense system of Suzhou City.

"Sir, please bear with me", seeing Chen Xin get out of the car, a soldier on his side approached with an instrument and said, this instrument looks like a big iron ring with a handle, and there are even a lot of threads exposed on the base of the connection.

"Virus detection equipment?"

Chen Xin was a little surprised, according to the record in the "Wasteland Survival Manual", the appearance of this portable device was theoretically a little later, and it should not be so simple.

As soon as he thought about it, Chen Xin had a guess in his heart, maybe the origin of this instrument was Jiangbei, and this rudimentary machine might even be a prototype that was still in the testing stage.

"That's right, please raise your hands above your head", the leading First Order Warrior took over, "There will be a fluorescent spray later, don't get me wrong." ”

The instrument is sprayed with fluorescents, but Chen Xin understands that if you want to identify a living microorganism like a virus, you can usually only rely on biomarker technology.

"Is this device distributed by the company?" Although Chen Xin was full of curiosity about the biotechnology in Suzhou City, he still asked quietly, because in the new era, no matter what biotechnology is, it can be said that it is the core thing of a party's forces.

The first-order warrior operated this instrument, raised his head and glanced at Chen Xin, and replied in an inaudible voice, "This is directly distributed by the President's Office, and it is directly connected to the computer room of the President's Office in real time." ”

In the eyes of the first-order soldiers, Chen Xin, who was holding his hands in front of him, should be the identity of the school officer, although he didn't know why he didn't wear the rank badge, but the awakened person who was mixed with the woman must be a powerful subordinate who was cultivated by a big man.

Therefore, this kind of thing that can be known with a little inquiry, although it is a little sensitive, he still told Chen Xin.

It's the President's Office again! Chen Xin frowned, the people he met along the way seemed to have an unclear relationship with the president's office, and the tentacles of the president's office of Lvhua were simply ubiquitous in the territory of Suzhou City.

"Your men seem to be nervous?" , Chen Xin sensed that he swept over everyone, and instantly noticed that the soldiers at these posts were a little nervous, especially the soldiers holding big iron rings beside him, and their military uniforms were already stuck with sweat.

"Their lives are only worth a thousand dollars, do you say they are nervous?" , The first-order warrior said half-jokingly, but as if he knew that what he said was not appropriate, his eyes had already moved to the screen of the base of the virus detection instrument.

"A thousand?" , Chen Xin frowned.

"Last Wednesday, they had a brother named Dai He, who was killed by a fourth-order major."

"Why?"

"Because of the fluorescent agent on his hand, it stained the officer's leather shoes," the First Order Warrior was still smiling, but his smile looked as stiff as if it had been applied to a mask.

"......", Chen Xin was silent, because he soiled his shoes and killed a soldier who belonged to the same company, in his opinion, it was really a little incredible, "And then he paid you a thousand yuan?" ”

"He lost 1,000 yuan to the company, and the company gave Dai and his daughter 500 yuan, which only arrived yesterday."

"No other punishment?" , Chen Xin turned around, his brows still locked.

"No, the company's legal counsel ruled on the spot through the contact device, and it was worth a thousand yuan."

Since the company's in-house counsel made a ruling on the spot, it naturally shows that in the eyes of Lvhua Company, the value of a soldier is 1,000 yuan, and it is even very likely that it has been formulated by the in-house counsel into a company law.

The soldier beside Chen Xin exhaled a long breath and put down the iron ring in his hand, as if he had completed an extremely hard project.

Chen Xin saw that the soldiers at the outpost did not move again, and knew that the test would be over, so he nodded and returned to the car.

"Routine inspection, don't take it to heart", Li Hengda saw that Chen Xin's expression seemed to be a little dignified, and he turned around and said while starting the vehicle.

"In Luhua, human life is only worth a thousand yuan?" , Chen Xin asked without a beginning, and his voice was a little louder.

Li Hengda knew what Chen Xin was referring to as soon as he heard it, and the tactical panel would push the announcement of the legal department's ruling every week, and the case at the former Sioux City outpost last week was not big or small, but it was also remembered by him.

"This matter is a bit complicated, that major is Vice President Wei's person, and it is said that he is destined to be promoted to the 6th order of tomorrow's star, so ......"

"So you can take human life?" , Chen Xin didn't know how much purchasing power a thousand yuan had, but it wasn't a particularly huge number when he thought about it.

"It's the wasteland era now......", Li Hengda stopped talking halfway, he believed that Chen Xin would never fail to understand the meaning.

Chen Xin took a deep breath and leaned back in his seat. After crossing over, Chen Xin's first choice was the military's 01 base, and the most important reason was that here, whether he was awakened or not, he was first and foremost a person!

That's right, in a company like Lvhua, if you fail to wake up, in the eyes of the company, there is a high probability that it is just a labor force worth a thousand yuan, and in the eyes of people at the school officer level, if you kill it, you will kill it, I am afraid it is not as good as a pet dog raised by yourself!

It is true that in the turbulent and troubled times, human life may indeed be worthless, and a large company like Luhua has done not go out of line, and there is at least a thousand yuan in compensation. But for Chen Xin, who was still living in the bustling Far East City not long ago, even if Chen Xin had awakened to the 5th level, it was still a little difficult to accept, and even a little sad.

Because, Chen Xin didn't know if it was his own fifth-order awakener, in the eyes of the 10th-order awakener, it was just the value of a pet dog.
