The end of the world is coming: My waiter is too Buddhist
Chapter 318 Contacting the Official Shelter
Yes, I didn’t mean to kill anyone. I just assigned them the right tasks, so why should I feel guilty?
After Qian Duoduo's reminder, Lin Xiaoxiao finally thought the matter through and stopped worrying about it, so she stood up immediately.
"Alright, you guys take care of the establishment of the Political Affairs Office. You can fill in the relevant rules and regulations yourself. I'll go take care of the military affairs first."
"Okay, I'll do it as soon as possible, maybe within a week."
After the matter was said, Lin Xiaoxiao did not go to find Ling Hao, because she had not yet done what she promised Liu Xin to do to contact the official shelter and report Haicheng for help.
Regardless of whether the current official shelter has the power to support Haicheng, she will not go back on her word since she has promised it. She also wants to know about General Zheng Qi's recent situation. She wants to know whether her former ally has been controlled by Xingkong.
If she could have Zheng Qi's help, she would have an ally in dealing with Xingkong. Otherwise, what could she do with just a few hundred people? She needed more people of her own to get things done.
However, she was still a little worried, fearing that General Zheng over there had been controlled by Xingkong and was even directly controlling her during the call.
Stroking the flower bracelet on her wrist, Lin Xiaoxiao thought about it and decided that it would be safer to find Ling Hao to go with her.
At the same time, she also asked someone to find Liu Xin. She had to let him see and hear it with his own eyes and ears, otherwise this matter would become a knot in Liu Xin's heart.
When Liu Xin saw Lin Xiaoxiao, there was expectation in his eyes but he did not ask anything. He just obediently followed Lin Xiaoxiao towards the underground laboratory.
Seeing the child guarding the entrance, Lin Xiaoxiao said gently, "Please help me call Ling Hao out."
This child was rescued together with Qingqing. After classroom learning and simple training these days, he and his companions were assigned to various positions.
Before, Lin Xiaoxiao thought that they were too young and wanted to let these children study for a few more years before working and participating in the construction of the shelter. However, as the outside world became more and more dangerous, she gradually realized that children nowadays can no longer grow up in peace and carefree conditions like before the apocalypse.
In addition, these children have long been different from ordinary people due to physical mutations, and their cruel experiences have made it impossible for them to be as innocent as normal children.
Even though Lin Xiaoxiao repeatedly asked Qingqing to tell them to focus on their studies, there were still children who volunteered to join the hunting team and go out on adventures.
Lin Xiaoxiao didn't agree at first, but after the children sneaked out to hunt several times, she finally compromised.
She agreed to let these children take on some jobs in the shelter but refused to let them join the hunting team. With Qingqing's persuasion, the children who originally wanted to join the hunting team finally nodded and stayed in the shelter.
Facts have proved that these children are quite outstanding. Although they are young, their ability to handle things is no worse than that of adults. After such a long period of running-in, these children are now fully capable of performing various duties in the shelter.
At this moment, the nine-year-old child, who was almost as tall as Lin Xiaoxiao, immediately turned around and walked into the research institute to pass on the message. His calm and experienced look made people subconsciously forget his age.
Lin Xiaoxiao didn't have to wait long before she saw Ling Hao walking out of the research institute quickly, without even having time to change his white coat and goggles.
"Wipe it off, let's go to the lounge area and talk."
Taking out a slightly yellowish piece of paper and handing it to Ling Hao, Lin Xiaoxiao stretched out her finger and tapped her cheek to indicate that there was something on his face.
Ling Hao casually wiped the stain off his face and subconsciously glanced at the tissue in his hand. "Director, the space inside the shelter can no longer accommodate the two industries of papermaking and animal husbandry. Should we consider moving these industries above ground?"
Lin Xiaoxiao naturally knew this, but the shelter was currently facing many crises and these things could only be piled up.
Rubbing his brows, Lin Xiaoxiao smiled bitterly: "Let's solve other problems first, and we can talk about these things later."
Apart from anything else, the shelter's shield would be gone in a few days, and the protective walls and watchtowers they had been building were not yet finished.
Another problem is the energy supply of the underground shelter. Previously, they used energy stones purchased from the system mall. Now the remaining energy stones can only last for half a year at most. They must find a solution within half a year.
Fortunately, the drinking water in the shelter was previously extracted groundwater, and it can be used normally even without the system function.
There are a lot of similar problems, and what Lin Xiaoxiao can do is to try to build up the ground shelter little by little after the outer protective wall is built. The underground part may be abandoned in the future.
Shaking his head to get rid of those worries, Lin Xiaoxiao brought Ling Hao and Liu Xin to the lounge near the research institute. At this moment, there were several residents working on the plantation chatting in the lounge.
For the convenience of research, the entrance to the underground research institute is near the plantation, so Lin Xiaoxiao was not surprised to see the plantation staff here.
However, when they saw Lin Xiaoxiao and the other two walk in, the workers immediately stood up and bowed awkwardly, and finally even left the rest area as if they were running away.
Watching the workers disappear quickly, Lin Xiaoxiao couldn't help but touch her face and asked Ling Hao: "Does my expression look fierce?"
"No, but I guess no one likes to be with their leader, right?"
Thinking about the embarrassing situation of taking the elevator with her boss when she was working, Lin Xiaoxiao began to understand a little.
Sitting down calmly, Lin Xiaoxiao asked Ling Hao, "Do you have a way to prevent me from being controlled by the Starry Sky Soul? I'm planning to talk to General Zheng at the official shelter, but I'm not sure if he's been infected."
After hearing this, Liu Xin, who had been silent with his head down, silently turned his gaze to Ling Hao. However, he didn't know much about the starry sky and parasitism, but now was obviously not the time to ask about these things.
Ling Hao took the communicator from Lin Xiaoxiao's hand and shook his head. "The Star Soul can't parasitize in this way yet. But we need to be careful about how to identify whether General Zheng is parasitized. If he is, then there's no need for cooperation."
Can't you use the communicator to parasitize me?
Lin Xiaoxiao felt relieved after hearing this answer. As for how to identify General Zheng's current condition, she was not worried.
Taking a deep breath, she dialed Zheng Qi's contact number under Liu Xin's gaze.
Time passed second by second, but the call was never connected, and Lin Xiaoxiao's mind was full of thoughts.
Could it be that General Zheng is already dead? Or has the possessed General Zheng discarded the communicator?
Just as her suspicions were becoming increasingly grim, the communication finally connected, and General Zheng's steady voice came out: "Director Lin, is there something wrong with your wish to seek refuge?"
Lin Xiaoxiao tightened her grip on the teacup and lowered her voice, "Are you really General Zheng? Tell me, what was the first sentence you said when we first met?"
There was a two-second silence before Zheng Qi's somewhat helpless voice came from the other end of the communicator: "I don't remember clearly, but I remember you were dressed like a cleaner. I still remember it clearly."
Hearing this, Lin Xiaoxiao couldn't help but smile: "I didn't expect you still remember what I looked like at that time. It's a bit embarrassing. I was really nervous at the time.
General Zheng, I have something to report to you."
