Chapter 150: Under the Monument

The registration process of more than an hour did not consume much patience from Hou Jie, who squinted his eyes at the small room like an interrogation room while dealing with various questions

He was the only one sitting in the room, with a microphone in front of him, and he couldn't see the questioner, but he could feel the sharp eyes coming through the one-way mirror, watching his every move every second. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

The interviewer obviously has a lot of questioning skills, should have received some training in interrogation, repeatedly asked questions on certain key issues, and asked many seemingly unrelated but actually interrelated questions that could be used as evidence.

In the end, Hou Jie obtained a temporary residence permit, and the staff at the registration office sincerely handed over a food stamp of 20 denominations: "Delay your time, this is your food stamp, you can use it to exchange it for food at the exchange office." All your responses are recorded and we will send it to the review team at the latest, and the review team will get back to us within two business days at the latest. If you have no problem with your identity, we will send you your resident card. Please leave your contact information. ”

Hou Jie accepted the food stamps and was quite surprised, it was the first time in his life that he had encountered a thing that he did not need money for a certificate, but could get money.

Surely this is ill-intentioned, trying to make the newcomer experience a sense of comfort, so as to tie their hearts, or stimulate consumption? Forget it, it's none of your business. After two seconds of silence, Hou Jie wrote Boss Zhang's name on the paper, and when he was interrogated just now, he did not show his speciality, but only said that he was an ordinary person with no special skills.

Because there is a special mission on this trip, it is not wise to expose your ability to attract the attention of the other party's high-level without knowing anything about the place of the Star of Hope.

"So, if nothing else, I'll go first?" Hou Jie coughed, scratched the back of his head, and asked a little embarrassedly, "That, I ate a steamed bun when I went ashore, can you please tell me how that steamed bun is made?" ”

The staff smiled kindly, showed a "I understand" expression, and said: "That steamed bun is made by ordinary methods, but the person who makes it is special, so it is so delicious." To tell the truth, there are many people who like to eat those steamed buns, and they have to go out to sea every day to go around and come back. ”

"Oh, that's wrong, I'm sorry, that steamed bun was made by Mr. Hao, the special chef of the Far Rescue Association. Mr. Hao used to be a chef in a star-rated hotel, and he awakened his ability related to cooking, and I don't know the specific situation, but everyone knows that Mr. Hao personally goes to the canteen of the Far Rescue Society every week to cook, and all members of the Far Rescue Society can have a feast. Speaking of this, the staff licked their lips and seemed to drool, as a staff member of the Far Rescue Association, even though the work intensity is high and the tasks are numerous, but the super high welfare benefits make all members have no complaints.

"...... like this" Hou Jie shrugged his shoulders, thinking that he probably didn't have a chance, waved his hand at the staff, and walked out of the door.

After eating and eating, he ate until noon, and simply continued to eat lunch, and drank some beer, which made Hou Jie sigh again, he had never been to the Xinyuanjiang in the wall, it was lifeless, and it was a big military camp at all. I didn't expect that on this Jiangxin Island, I could still get back the feeling of life in the past.

"Mr. Hou, I'll take you to eat baked potatoes in the evening, Wang Luo barbecued the potato chips baked by the proprietress so delicious that I can bite my tongue, and she is also beautiful, everyone calls her Potato Shih." Zhang Deng's face was full of red light, this time thanks to Hou Jie's blessing, their fleet made a lot of money, and at this time they wanted to entertain Hou Jie well and hug this thigh.

Barbecue meat and grilled fish is a luxury unique to the middle and upper classes, and third-class residents like Zhang Deng can ask for a meal of baked potatoes before they can find a suitable seller for the goods on their hands.

Hou Jie pouted, shook his head and said, "No need, thank you Boss Zhang for your kindness, I want to go around by myself at night, you can just go and eat, don't worry about me." ”

Seeing Zhang Deng's face was lost, Hou Jie added: "I filled in Boss Zhang's name in the registration office, and I have to trouble Boss Zhang to help me collect my resident card when the time comes." ”

Zhang Deng's expression immediately turned from gloomy to sunny, and he nodded again and again, smiling and unable to find his eyes.

After resting for a while, at about five or six o'clock, Hou Ming went to find a bar, Zhang Deng expressed his willingness to accompany him, but was politely refused by Hou Jie.

"Okay then." Zhang Deng knew that being too enthusiastic would sometimes attract people's disgust, so he gave up the idea of following, and said, "Then you go out to the right, all the way, to the monument, there are road signs, and walking to No. 2 Qunying Street is the light of dawn, the largest bar in Jiangxin Island now." But ......"

Speaking of this, Zhang Deng hesitated, hesitated for a moment and decided to explain his words clearly: "The boss of the light of dawn is Qiao Sanye, the former owner of the Zijin Hotel, Qiao Shan, he has a good relationship with Vice President Wang, so you should pay attention there." ”

It means that the backstage of the owner of this bar is very hard, and he can't touch it himself, so don't make trouble casually. Hou Jie sneered in his heart, but he didn't move on the surface, and nodded to show that he understood.

While following the route Zhang Deng said, Hou Jie thought in his heart how he could get in touch with the mysterious president of the Far Rescue Society.

The fastest way for a newcomer to a small character to get the attention of a big guy is to make a big news...... Once you've gone to the bar to find out, what can you do to make sure you get noticed and meet the supreme ruler of Jiangxin Island?

"Every time I hear Zhang Deng talk about the monument, he admires it, thinking that this monument should be a landmark on Jiangxin Island, and it is highly valued by the residents, if I take off my pants and pee on the monument, will it definitely anger this so-called Far Salvation Association and lure their president out?" Hou Jie thought about it and smiled evilly.

Hou Jie's body was strengthened, his physical abilities were much higher than ordinary people, and his speed of action was the same, and after a while, he walked through the not bustling and noisy streets, and walked under the monument standing in the center of Jiangxin Island.

It was a huge rectangle made of steel, which looked like a giant's tombstone from a distance, and for some reason when Hou Jie saw this monument, it gave Hou Jie a sense of immensity and shock.

He was not alone in front of the monument, but there was also a strange woman, wearing a Korean coat from last winter, caressing the monument with her right hand like a lover, tilting her head, and her eyes seemed to be focused on a certain name.

This is...... An important person died on the battlefield and his name is inscribed on the monument?

Hou Jie stopped suddenly, stunned like a piece of wood, watching the people coming and going under the monument, from time to time someone put the flowers and grass blades bundled into bunches under the monument, and some people came empty-handed, kneeling and kowtowing; There are also people who happen to pass by, but they have to stop, bow deeply and leave; There were also people like the woman, standing under the monument, staring at a name that they would never forget in their hearts, and they couldn't stop crying.

The strange thing is that when they come to the vicinity of the monument, they will lower their voices of walking and talking, and even those who cry under the monument rarely make a sound, even if they can't help but sob, they will deliberately lower it, and they can't hear the miserable howl of crying and grabbing the ground, only the solemn and solemn silence, as heavy as the mountain.

Hou Jie was deeply attracted by the strange scene in front of him, and he just stood and watched until the melodious bell rang and rang six times in a row.

A group of children dressed in plain white clothes and wearing plastic garlands of flowers on their heads, led by a middle-aged woman, took off their shoes and walked barefoot under the monument.

It's winter, the ground is cold and rough, and your feet are frozen when you wear shoes, what should it feel like to take off your shoes? It would have been frostbitten, but the children in this group, the eldest looked to be eleven or twelve years old, and the younger looked only four or five years old, and they all gritted their teeth and endured the pain, and none of them cried or wept.

"Tell the teacher, are you in pain?" The middle-aged woman turned her head, looked at the group of children kindly, and asked gently.

"It hurts." A little girl finally couldn't hold back, and cried her nose uncontrollably, but quickly shut down, not daring to break the silence.

"I know, the children, the teachers, the pain. Have you ever thought that we just took off our shoes and walked less than a hundred meters away, and it hurt. The soldiers of the Defending Army, the soldiers of the Far Salvation Society, they walked through the mountains of corpses and the sea of blood, did it hurt? "The female teacher doesn't speak fast, so that every child can hear clearly.

"For more than 100 days, it was they who stood up with their chests up and stood in the way forever, keeping the zombies and mutants out of sight."

"Have you ever thought about how much it hurts if the souls of the sacrificed warriors in heaven see the children they left behind, being ridiculed and bullied by their peers because they have no parents?"

The children immediately lowered their heads and realized that they had made a terrible mistake.

"Have you ever thought that if it weren't for their sacrifice, maybe the orphans without parents would be you?"

A child couldn't control it, and he cried out and knelt on the ground with a plop, someone took the lead, and the children who had bowed their heads before all bent their knees and knelt on the ground, begging for forgiveness.

"If you know your mistakes, you can change them, and you can do good." The teacher smiled with satisfaction, pointed to the monument, and continued, "You know, the teacher's fiancΓ© is also there, but the teacher never regrets letting him participate in the war against the corpses. ”

"Because if they hadn't stepped up in the toughest circumstances, we wouldn't be where we are today. We can't eat hot meals, we can't sleep in warm quilts, and we can't enjoy a safe and comfortable environment. ”

"Maybe you will complain that the Far Rescue Society has not done enough, and that our lives are far from what they were before the disaster. But you must know that everything today is not easy to come by. ”

"Every bite of food we ate was won back by their battles and sacrifices; Every inch of land under our feet is watered by them with blood and sweat; The tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, every day, that we take for granted, they bought it with their lives yesterday! ”

Watching the teacher lead the children and bow to the monument again and again, looking at the glittering and unprecedented brilliance in the eyes of those children, Hou Jie took a deep breath, swept the previous stupid thoughts out of his brain, his cheeks flushed, and he was ashamed that he had had such thoughts.
