Chapter Eighty-Eight: Wilderness Supply Depot

The truck sped high speed over the wilderness, shaking slightly from time to time due to the gravel on the ground, but it was not bumpy inside because of its excellent shock absorption. Although it looks like a large truck on the outside, the interior is actually divided into two floors, where you can live and sit and lie down, and at this moment 8 members sit on the upper floor, while the other 4 people sleep on the relatively quiet lower floor.

"It's time to add something, and I don't know if the station shown on the map is almost there." Guro sat back in his seat, his legs stretched, one hand propped up on his knee, the other tapping the other, bored and expectant.

"Hey, I don't know how the people here live, can they also watch TV, and can they also chase stars?" On the other hand, Ruby is looking at herself in a mirror to see if there is anything that needs to be touched-up, as a professional idol, various details cannot be ignored.

"After I went back this time, I edited the photos and videos taken on the way into short films, and arranged them into a story like a continuous small theater, which will definitely attract a lot of fans, and maybe it will be a small fire once~" Even if she goes out to practice, she does not forget her career.

"Where's Tilan, are you still sleeping down there?" Aaron closed the freshly written clipboard in his hand and asked the people around him.

"She seemed to be resting, and she seemed to be very sleepy after that day, and slept in Delores's arms several times." Ruby recalled.

That night, the crowd was soaked in the singing of the night wind, and it was not until a long time later that they woke up, as if they had a distant dream.

"It turns out that Tilan's singing is so good, this time it's really not a loss." Putting down the game console in his hand, Kinsenke jumped off the stone and was so emotional.

Although the students were surprised, they were not sure that this was the effect of the singer's talent, but they had some conjectures in their hearts but were not completely sure, after all, in the Federation, every singer was registered, and as long as they found it, they would quickly explode, and if Tilan really had that kind of talent, she would definitely be famous a long time ago.

In the next two days, everyone also wanted to ask if the president really had that kind of talent, but they were all stopped by N.

"Although Tilan's performance is very special, the talent performance of singers is generally not like this, in fact, there are some singers who can achieve similar effects......" N is lying, but with his serious expression and various examples, he still hides the past for the time being, and only a few people still have speculation.

In the lower compartment, the black-haired girl was wearing pajamas and hugging a pillow, curled up on the bed horizontally, although there was a slight shaking in the car all the time, but she still slept soundly.

At her side, Deloris was covered with a thin quilt, leaning against the inner wall of the side, wearing headphones, flipping through the videos of the performances and speeches of the previous singers in her personal terminal, and occasionally turning her gaze to the sleeping girl on the side.

She is not as easy to be fooled by N as the other students in the car, but she is keenly aware of the place where N does not say death, "Singers' talent performance is generally not like this", that is to say, some singers perform like this, but less.

If Tilan really had that kind of talent, then combined with what she had said to herself, many things would be understood, Deloris meditated in her heart.

With her character, probably not wanting to be so famous, Deloris quickly thought of the reason why the girl refused to be famous.

It's really a rare person, but if she was the kind of person who was keen on fame and fortune, I probably wouldn't like her as much as she does now.

Since she doesn't want to reveal her secret, then I will pretend not to know, and rashly exposing it is not what a good friend should do, thinking of this, Deloris smiled shallowly at the corner of her mouth, and her mood was a little brisk.

Although she is very good friends with Tilan, the girl next to her usually has a lot on her mind, but she refuses to tell her everything, and even the cheerful and generous Deloris will be a little sad about such a scene.

Now that the knot in her heart is untied, she slowly understands the approach of this friend next to her, and the invisible barrier between the two is also untied.

Is Ti Lan a singer, thinking about it, it's really exciting, what kind of ballad will such a gentle and strong girl sing, and what kind of light will bloom in the future, I really want to record it, and then watch her walk step by step to the shining mountaintop.

When you ask me why I think Tilan will go to the top of the shining mountain, it is naturally because I believe in her unconditionally, and believe that such people can work miracles.

Slowly jot down her mood and diary, Delores closed the clipboard, then lay down again, covered herself and Tilan's quilt, and slowly fell asleep.

————

The black wheels were dyed white with dust, and by the time they reached the only supply station in the wilderness, it was already dusk, and the setting sun was not far from the horizon, fiery red, and the lonely buildings stood in the wilderness, with a faint light.

Not long after N got off the train, the trainees on the bus also jumped out of the car, and the things dealing with the personnel in the supply station naturally would not be N, if everything was handled by him, it would not be called experience.

During the days of Tilan's sleepiness, Aaron became the Order's candidate to replace her in command, leading several boys into the rusty and dilapidated building.

Peeling light blue paint, which also has a faint yellow pattern, while the door frame is inlaid with oval glass, allowing a view of the inside of the hall.

After pushing the door open, a sultry heat rushed in, which was much stronger than the dry cold outside, but the faint smell made several students in the same group cover their mouths and noses.

After Yalian entered, he glanced and found that there were still a lot of people in the supply station, at least ten people could be seen in the hall, two of them were clerks, and the other eight were also dusty and dusty, some were wearing shabby and oily overalls, some were wrapped in shiny jackets, and the old equipment next to the bar played slightly hoarse music, full of rhythm, and the stereoscopic projection on the side played a film that had been lifted more than 20 years ago.

Stepping on the slightly echoing metal floor, Aaron looked as he walked to the front desk.

"Hello, we're passing through here and need some supplies, especially fuel for vehicles." Finally, his gaze was fixed on the young man behind the bar, who was wearing a floral turban, a gray T-shirt, and an old red vest jacket, which was baking some food in the bar, and the sound of sizzling oil could be heard.

"Oh, rare faces, are you here for the first time?" He swayed slightly to the rhythm of the music next to him, then looked up.

Although he knew that he might be cheated for the first time, Aaron didn't know how to disguise the veteran, so he still didn't hide it.

"That's right, come here to do something." He explained simply.

"It seems that you are lucky, you met us the first time you came, and we are still relatively safe and well-behaved compared to other places." He picked up the fried meat slices, picked up the condiments in the bowl with his hands, sprinkled them on top, and then simply wiped his hands with a towel on the side, and served the colorful and fragrant barbecue to the guests at the table.

"Do you want fuel, come with me." He stepped out of the bar and touched Aaron with the back of his hand, though he walked out of the supply station.

As soon as he went out, he saw a large white truck parked outside, its overall shape is square, and the corners are multi-faceted trapezoidal edges, which are not sharp, giving people a solid beauty.

"It's a nice big guy, I think it should use liquid alkane hydrogen 34 fuel, which is more energy efficient."

"That's right, No. 34 is one of the few fuel options available." Aryan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.

"But it's a pity that we can't get high-end goods like No. 34 fuel, and cheap No. 26 fuel is available, and there are more impurities, but it is better to prepare conveniently." After he finished speaking, he continued to move forward, looking carefully around the big white truck, and seemed to be a little envious of such a big truck.

"No. 26, isn't there a better choice?" Aaron held his forehead, a little distressed.

Fuel 26 was slowly phased out of the federal market 100 years ago because it was not as energy efficient as newer fuels and had more impurities.

"It's gone." The young man with the flower cloth towel was very simple, no is no, and there were no other shops around, and he was not afraid of the guests running away.

"Okay then, I'll have to make do with it." Although it is a little sorry to use inferior fuel for this brand-new car, it will not be pretentious.

"5,000 federal dollars a liter, up to 400 liters." He quoted a price that clearly exceeded the standard.

"Hey, hey, this little brother, you're joking." Gu Luo walked over, his face was not good, he knew the price of fuel now, even if it was a liter of high-quality No. 34 fuel, it was only about 120 federal coins, and this one opened his mouth for 5,000, which was 50 times faster, and it was not like this to slaughter people.

Looking at the three of them around, the young man with the flower cloth towel raised his hand and smiled, "Don't be so surprised, this is the second district in the north, where the birds don't come, it's not easy to transport goods, the drivers on the road are risking their lives to transport things, the price is like this, besides, it's useless for you to tell me, this is the price set by our boss." ”

"400 liters, 5,000 per liter, this is 2 million federal dollars for one refuel, a bit excessive." Yalian frowned deeply, although he had been mentally prepared for traveling in the North 2nd District, he didn't want to be so troublesome on the first day.

"I said, this is the price set by our boss, no matter how much you talk to me, it's useless, or you can discuss it again, I will have to be busy with all kinds of work if I go in first." After speaking, the young man with the flower cloth towel returned to the store, leaving the young student who looked at the face alive outside.

They glanced at each other a few times, and they didn't have a good idea, after all, it was the first time they had encountered this kind of brutal rip-off behavior outside.

"Why don't you ask Teacher N." One of them proposed.

"No, he won't say it, he emphasized before that unless an extremely dangerous situation happens, he won't take action, and we have to find a way to solve it ourselves."

"What should I do, do you really give him 2 million? Money is a trivial matter, but I can't bear to suffer such a big loss. Simu kicked the pebbles on the side of the road.

"I can't give it if I want to, this time we came out of the activity fund is only 3 million, if you fill it with your own money, there is no point in experience."

"3 million, if it was before, I wouldn't dare to think about it." Gu Luo shook his head, his family background can only be regarded as average, although he was also born in the third district of the south, which is not bad, but he can't be so wasteful and extravagant.

"The main thing is that we don't know the real situation here, and if the prices here are really like this, then there is no way to ......" Yalian pushed his glasses.

"Impossible." Gu Luo walked over and shook his head.

"You rich kids, you really have no concept, although it is dangerous to transport goods here, but it will definitely not increase the price to such a point."

"Human life? The federal legal compensation for a human life is only 500,000 federal dollars, and if you take out 200,000 yuan to go to remote areas, there are people who work for you, and they are all strong young people. ”

"So, he deliberately tricked us, to see that we were still young?" Xi Mu stroked the short burgundy hedgehog hair on his head.

"That's for sure, I think I have to teach him a good lesson, and drag the boss behind him out to beat him up so that he can be at peace." Gu Luo rubbed his knuckles, making a gurgling sound, a little eager to try.

"Don't do it yet, let's go back and discuss it with the others, this will cause Tilan to wake up too." Aaron stops his companions and prepares to commit violence.

"I said Boss Alian, why are you such a mother-in-law, is it still your turn to talk to Tilan about such a trivial matter, let's make a decision quickly, even if Tilan comes, they will still trick people, maybe they will see Tilan's beauty, and they will tease Tilan." Saying that, Gu Luo proposed again, a little resentful.

On the first day, Yalian encountered a scene of disagreement between his subordinates and himself, and a person like him, who has been in the laboratory all the year round, hesitated for a while, indeed, even if he would go back to discuss, the choice was nothing more than a few, either obediently admit to slaughter, or violently break the game.

Closing his eyes and being silent for a few seconds, Yalian still shook his head, the direct use of violence was too inconsistent with his habits and concepts all along, even if he lost face, he was still ready to go back and discuss it with everyone.

"Go back first, I said." His attitude was a little tougher, and seeing this, Gu Luo had no choice but to put down his writhing fist.

The three of them returned to the car, and at this time N was sitting in the cab with his legs crossed, listening to the song, as if he was not surprised by the failure of the three of them, he didn't ask, he was still immersed in his own little world, as if to say don't bother me.

The three of them finished talking to their companions in the car before asking about Tilan's situation.

"Tiran and Delores are still resting." Avne came up from the lower floor in a thin blanket and sat by the sunset-red window, her face still sleepy.

"Haven't you gotten up yet, this is going to be a bit of a problem." Aaron rubbed the bridge of his nose.

After listening to Aaron's description, Avne shook her head, "It's useless to reason with these people, I've seen a lot of these little people, flamboyant, it's hard for you to get the real thing out of his mouth, he won't become honest until you completely crush him." ”

Her father is a high-ranking official in the federal star field government, and she usually deals with people with various demands, and she also knows a lot about it.

"Are you still going to fight?" Aryan made a distressed voice, he was a lover of peace.

"I said a long time ago, this kind of calm speech is useless." Gu Luo suggested again that several of the other boys in the team were also a little eager to try, especially Jinsenke, who was not afraid of the high stage when he watched the show, took off his sunglasses and stepped on the seat next to him.

"At this time, it's Uncle Ben's turn to come out, hahaha~"

"Brothers, come with me, let them see how good we are, and teach this group of cunning fellows how to open our great voyage." With a wave of his hand, the cards on his fingertips shone brightly, and then a handful of white 'big dicks' fell into his hands.

This white-painted 'Electric Snake-C2' electromagnetic assault rifle has a very fast rate of fire, and can also be equipped with various modular accessories and special bullets, which is the favorite of many DIY people.

The wide boxed magazine is pressed into the barrel of the gun, making a clicking sound, and then a swimming blue circuit pattern emerges on the barrel of the gun, and after the self-test is completed, a small green laser dot appears in front of the muzzle.

"I've expected this to happen for a long time, hmph, the big man helped me bring those two blue boxes in the locker, which contained all kinds of weapons, and today is the time to come in handy."

"When you come to the North 2nd District, how can you do it without firing?" He asked everyone in the room to grab a brand new firearm and weapon, then led the group out of the car, and kicked open the dilapidated door.

"Who is not long-eyed, and wants to make black money-"

A dozen or so members armed with lethal weapons, wearing hazmat suits, tactical goggles, and almost fully armed re-entered the depot, their brand-new guns swimming in blue light, muzzle-mounted aiming lasers aimed at the only two clerks in the store.

In front of this terrifying battle, the clerk raised his hand tremblingly, for fear that any behavior would cause the excesses of the people in front of him.
