Chapter 34: Encounter

Still as usual, when he heard the sound of the horn, he took the basin and went downstairs to get water, this time Jing Qi wanted to go by himself, but was stopped at home by Du Jing and Jing Tian, Jing Qi thought that he would not go out of the shelter, it should be fine, so he went with them.

This time, no GIs jumped on the front of the car to speak, but there were still people who spoke, but they held a bullhorn and shouted below: "Because the weather is too hot, save water, reduce 1,000 milliliters of water per person to 800 milliliters per person." ā€

Du Jing listened to it and smacked his tongue secretly, how can people live with this 800 ml a day? Another thought, this is free, it's better than nothing, not to mention that I don't lack this bit of water.

"What's going on? 1000ml is not enough, why go down to 800ml? Do you still let people live? Someone in the line shouted.

As he shouted, the people in the group began to whisper.

"Quiet!" After this roar, people stopped talking and waited quietly.

"800 ml of water per person is determined by research, these water can definitely meet a person's water needs for a day, and now there is not much water, you 800 ml of water, leaders only have 500 ml of water a day! If you have any opinions, also 500ml of water per person! The soldier walked around the group with a loudspeaker.

"You said that the leaders have 500 ml of water a day per person, what proof is there? What if they had water in their homes? A lady in her forties in the line asked.

"Did the shelter take away the water you brought with you before you came? Now these water resources are all exchanged for the lives of the leaders and our soldiers, what have you paid for?! The soldier asked in a loud voice.

"Aren't you soldiers supposed to protect the citizens? That's what you should do! The lady stood up and shouted excitedly.

"Who else gave her the same idea?" As he spoke, he walked around the line.

The soldier's words fell all the way, and several middle-aged women in the group stood silently next to the lady.

The GI glanced at them and shouted, "Anything else?" Yes, they can all stand together! ā€

The rest of the group kept their heads down, did not speak or move their feet.

"Okay, the people in the team will follow 800 ml of water per person today, if you have any opinions, go to the shelter office later." After speaking, the soldier stood aside and stopped talking.

The people in front began to silently lead the water, Jing Tian and Du Jing moved forward with the movement of the people, and after a while, Du Jing and they led the water.

Du Jing stretched the basin over.

"Ah, you're Du Jing, right?" The girl who was registering asked in surprise.

Du Jing raised his head, tied with a short ponytail, and his face turned to ashes, and he also knew his former best friend, star fruit.

"Who do you live with here? I'm working in the shelter office right now and something comes to me. Star fruit said with her chin raised.

"Thank you, please give us water." Du Jing stretched the basin anew.

Carambola looked at Du Jing's registration and said suspiciously: "You and your father are here?" ā€

"Here with my uncle, who is still waiting for us in the room." Du Jing turned around and left with the water.

"I have time to find you!" Star fruit shouted at Du Jing's back.

"Who is talking to you?" Jing Tian asked.

"Former best friend, star fruit." Du Jing said lightly.

"It's the one you used to buy her clothes, and it's a good time to test her friendship." Jing Tian sighed.

"There's no need to test, she can only use me." After speaking, Du Jing took the lead and walked upstairs and stepped on the stairs with a "bang".

Jing Tian silently followed behind.

After everyone received the water, the waterwheel was driven away as usual, the staff and soldiers walked away with the waterwheel, and the few women in the courtyard who had not yet received the water, you look at me, I look at you, or the first lady who said she disagreed, reacted first, chased after the car and shouted: "It's wrong for you to do this, we want to go to your leader to complain about you!" ā€

Leaving only dust in the air, indicating that the car had just left, he turned to look at the few people: "Let's go to the shelter office together and complain about them!" ā€

One of the middle-aged women lowered her head and said, "Forget it, let's go back, our arms can't twist our thighs." Don't do it again, you just don't get water today. ā€

"Are you going? If we don't let it out, they will not give us water in the future. The lady said viciously.

The remaining women said, "We'll go with you." ā€

The lady glared at the woman who had just said she wouldn't go: "Are you going?" For the sake of all relatives, I'll give you another chance. ā€

"I—I'm not going." Timidly finished speaking, and silently walked to the accommodation.

"Humph! Let's go, don't pay attention to this person who can't get on the stage. The woman led the women to the shelter office.

A few people in the office saw the whole thing in their eyes, and they were angry in their hearts that these people didn't know how to be grateful, but they didn't expect them to come by themselves.

The leading lady walked into the office and shouted: "Leader, we want to complain about the staff who sent water today." ā€

One of the young girls stood up with a smile: "Sister, what are you complaining about them?" ā€

"Are you in charge? If you don't care about anything, let your leaders come! The leading lady said with her hands on her waist.

The girl frowned slightly, smiled and said, "I'm in charge today, you can say." ā€

"The staff didn't give us water today, we need an explanation now, or we should make up the water now!" The leading lady is strong and authentic.

A middle-aged man in the office stood up: "Sister, we can't listen to you, this matter has to be investigated, you register here, we have finished the investigation, if it is really as you said, we will give you water." ā€

"We're going to make it up now!" One of the women said.

"Eldest sister, we can't do it, and neither can all the staff here, so we can make it up if we don't investigate it clearly. Please give us a few days. The middle-aged man said.

"A few days? On such a hot day, you can't replenish water for a few days, you want to die of thirst! The lead lady shouted.

"Eldest sister, what our leader said is that we also have to investigate, and we will finish the investigation as soon as possible." The little girl said.

"Okay, we're going to have results tomorrow morning, can you give them?" The lead lady asked.

"Okay, you guys go back first." The middle-aged man said.

"At first glance, you are the kind of good leaders who sincerely serve the people." Before leaving, the leading lady praised the office staff, and said triumphantly in her heart: Look, I still have the ability, not only is the water going to be lit, but I also sued them, and it won't take long for them to come to me in order to keep their jobs.

As soon as they left, the little girl asked, "Leader, can we give them an answer tomorrow?" ā€

"You don't know, today's cart of water is the last cart of water in the shelter, many of our staff have not received water, so they can distribute water to these people, what they do makes those soldiers who take the initiative not to receive water embarrassed." The middle-aged man sighed.

"Aren't you going to tell them these things?" The little girl asked.

"I can't bury it, tomorrow morning at the latest, everyone will know." The middle-aged man closed his eyes after saying this.

The little girl looked at the middle-aged man, sat down, and stopped talking.

Carambola and the others returned to the army residence, and Carambola walked directly to the second floor, pushed the door of one of the rooms and walked in.

Du Jing didn't have the heart to cultivate because she met star fruit, and she kept thinking about how she became a staff member? What about her family? Did she awaken an ability? Judging from the tone of her speech today, she is doing well, and the reason why she speaks to herself is probably to show off to herself.
