Chapter 35: The Day of Inspection
Bang Bang Bang
"Boss, who's knocking on the door?"
"Law enforcement team, go and open the door, if they don't go again, they will break the door."
Su Xiaoyou lifted the hem of her skirt and trotted open the door of the wine shop, the standard robe, it was the people of the law enforcement team, behind them, followed by two cars.
The man at the head was a little surprised when he saw this face, "What about Zhuang Rong, the original resident?" How is it a woman? β
"Brother, here." Zhuang Rong poked his head out and stepped forward with a smile.
"Oh, it's good to be here, come and sign, and explain what is going on with this woman, so that you can report it."
Zhuang Rong took the pen, "She is my newly hired employee, you know, I have a wine shop here, and some outlaws come to take care of it on weekdays, once I go out of the field, this will be idle, it is not suitable, just let her help, and the temporary residence will be here in the future." β
"Just explain it clearly, let's go first if there's nothing to do, it's going to be very busy today."
"Wait, brother, how much of the Qianzi District you are responsible for cleaning up today?"
The man was silent for a moment and sighed, "Many, our team is in charge, so far we have checked a hundred households, of which 32 are gone, and 9 have not seen anyone for the time being." The most miserable family, a family of three, when we entered, the child was lying on the rotten corpse, stiff, and it seemed that he had eaten human flesh when he was alive. β
Zhuang Rong didn't want to imagine that kind of scene.
"Most of the people who have died are over 40 years old?"
"There are a few young ones, but most of them died of wound infections and had no money for treatment. If you don't look at the world of this dog R, you can't imagine what life is like below, and you don't know how much better the pre-civilization era can be than we are at this time. β
"I'm delaying your time, come here another day to drink, I'll have a treat."
The man smiled, "I've written it down, let's go." β
Pre-civilization? It was an era that you can't imagine, so many years have passed, and it has long been broken, except for a part of the knowledge that has been handed down, and some life has become a story, and it has become a fantasy.
Every time the 'Su Cha Day', Zhuang Rong will keep it in mind and ask for some content, and in the past 6 years, it seems to be about the same, and there is no improvement.
"Boss, is it the day of the inspection?"
"Hmm."
"I've never asked before, and I've always thought it was good."
Zhuang Rong smiled bitterly, "That's just what you think, among these people in the outer circle, every year graduates, can find a job in the shelter, there are a few who don't have to work hard, and there are even a large number of family-style employment methods." Let more people actually have no choice. β
"If there is a battle, there will be casualties, and if there are casualties, there will be diseases, not everyone can afford to consume hundreds of credits for a treatment, and sometimes the rewards of mercenary missions are not enough for a treatment, people, the more they grow up, the more hopeless they are, and the more they are worried, the more they dare not sell their lives."
"Unfortunately, having a child is a burden for all families until the age of six."
Either starve to death or die of disease, the world is far more cruel than what you see.
It is estimated that after this year's inspection day, the vacant houses will be sorted out, and some of them may involve relocation to leave vacant for this year's 33 batches of graduates. At the same time, we will start to repair some old housing areas, which have not been moved for eight years, and it is estimated that they will be arranged for repairs. β
"You pay more attention, someone will come to count, do you have any credits in your hand? We are already old residents and are not entitled to free repairs. β
Su Xiaoyou nodded, "I have a little on hand." β
"That's it."
"Huh? Eh, eh??? Su Xiaoyou felt that something was wrong, but Zhuang Rong didn't give her a chance to react, and left directly.
Why doesn't the boss pay for it, but asks the employees to pay for it?
As we walked through the alleyway, the day of the investigation was in full swing, and the cars were stuffed with corpses, some of which were still intact, and some of which smelled foul.
If you hadn't gotten the 'impossible' power, you might be one of these corpses right now, right?
All the way out of the alley, a sign in front of him attracted Zhuang Rong's attention.
Crematorium Temporary Volunteer Registration Office
With a move in his heart, he dispelled the established idea of continuing to go to the 'Yin Wind Ruins', Zhuang Rong walked to the registration office, the sloppy old man was very much in line with the standards of the world's masters, but he was not.
The spirit seems to be okay, and it is said that he has retired from the border army.
"Sign up!"
The old man knocked on the table, "No pay, no money, eat and drink at your own expense." At this rate, it should last for several days, at least seven days. β
"I understand."
"Now there is only one me in the crematorium, plus you, maybe two, after the first batch of inspections is over, I will have to go back, and I will not recruit again, so the biggest possibility is that only the two of us will do this."
Just what I want!
"Seeing this, I feel a lot in my heart, I can't do anything else, I can do a favor, it's good to do this, it's just a few days."
The old man glanced at Zhuang Rong in surprise, but he was happy in his heart, and he was also touched by a little insignificance.
"Hold this sign, get ready to leave."
Indeed, as the old man said, there is no one else, the mercenaries in the past, just swept lightly, there is not much emotion in their eyes, and someone dies every day, which is normal. There is no pay, they are conceited to eat and drink, and it will take several days for these three requests to directly cut off their excess touch.
Some people may not be able to survive even one day without income, let alone several days.
The old man rode a three-wheeled car, the position of the dragon's head, the crystal nucleus exuded a crimson halo, and he didn't run fast, but walking in this kind of alleyway was much faster than walking a person.
The crematorium is in the Lizi area, but the latest investigation started in the Kunzi area, and the old man followed.
"What's your name?"
"Zhuang Rong."
"In previous years, the old man and I also followed, I didn't recruit anyone, I didn't expect that there would be a harvest this year, you can help, it is estimated that it will be faster, fortunately, the last monster siege, did not choose to send all the corpses to the crematorium, otherwise, those people, crystal beasts, and corpses are piled up in the crematorium, which is busy enough to work for a long time, and the entire living area is afraid of stinking."
Zhuang Rong is not talkative, especially for strangers, "special things are dealt with specially." β
"Do you have a dream, young man?"
Well????
ClichΓ©, shame, brain-dead, neurotic, a series of words flashed in Zhuang Rong's mind, the old man rode by himself, not at all in a hurry, quietly waiting for Zhuang Rong's answer, he thought that if he didn't speak, the old man would change the topic, but now it seems that the old man does not seem to have that plan.
"Live, live well, or if it's a dream, can it be counted as a dead end?"
The old man smiled, "It's all counted, especially at the end of life, it's a relatively big ideal, then you have to at least get mixed up with the Bai family, don't you plan to participate in the Longmen exam?" Isn't the inner circle stronger? In that case, you may need to work harder and live as another Bai family in the inner circle in order to die properly. β
Zhuang Rong glanced at the old man's data strangely.
Gou Sheng: 84 years old
Life: Pseudo-second-order transcendent body.
It's true that he's not a hermit.
The conversation between the two reached an impasse, Zhuang Rong had nothing to say, and the old man couldn't find anything else to talk about except his dreams, so he was silent, and after an hour and a half, the vehicle stopped at the gate of the crematorium.
The vision instantly broadened, and in other residential areas, dense housing, and cramped lanes, Zhuang Rong still had some feelings when he came into contact with this 'vast' crematorium.
"This is it, the first batch will be delivered soon, I'll take you inside, you only need to be responsible for checking it, the machine here refers to the assembly line operation of some pre-civilizations, as long as the machine doesn't make mistakes, it's not so tired."
"Understood!"
In the empty building, there are indeed assembly lines, similar to the ironworks seen by Zhuang Rong in the previous life, a conveyor belt, and the blast furnace is glowing red.
When people are dead, how can there be so much attention, burn them directly, turn them into ashes at another exit, and then send people directly to the field of departure.
