The few remaining ones were divided up before Director Wu even got the news.

Mrs. Fang observed the base for a few days and took a fancy to the position of looking after the kitchen.

The job is pretty simple. The kitchen door is locked until mealtime, so leave it alone. When it's time to cook, open the door in advance and let people in one by one based on their ID badges. If electricity is needed, be sure to collect the electricity bill and supplies in advance.

There are about three or four people managing a large kitchen.

She also inquired about the salary. Although it was not as good as the property management in the community, it was still very generous and could provide food and drink for two people.

Mrs. Fang felt that with her abilities, this would be a piece of cake.

However, Director Wu approached the base management several times and was politely turned away each time.

Mrs. Fang looked at the storage box and gritted her teeth: "No, just take a few more boxes of cigarettes."

Director Wu nodded heavily: "Okay!"

Zhou Shuwan and Qi Mingyu walked out with their bulging backpacks on their backs.

In their backpacks were air-conditioned clothes and the supplies they had just received.

Qi Mingyu got a bag for two people, but Zhou Shuwan got a bag for four people, so his backpack looked a little bulger than his.

As soon as he reached the corridor leading out of the underground base, Zhou Shuwan glanced at Qi Mingyu.

The latter nodded slightly.

Not far behind them, several shadowy figures were following.

Qi Mingyu winked at Zhou Shuwan, and the two of them walked towards a dark corner.

After leaving the main road, they walked into a corner where there were no lights or cameras.

The figures behind him suddenly pounced on him.

Immediately, there was a scream, followed by the sound of people falling to the ground one after another.

The underground foundation was very noisy, and the screams and fighting did not attract many people's attention, only attracting the patrolmen.

Although the underground base has already verified the identity card or household registration of each person upon check-in, and then double-guaranteed by neighbors and property management to confirm the person's identity, only survivors can move in. This is the first line of defense.

Those with a criminal record are not allowed to stay, and may even be severely punished. Some people who have committed crimes will be arrested as soon as they show up, and then face endless hard labor!

Therefore, people with criminal records dare not show up in the underground base at all.

In order to maximize the personal safety of the survivors who move in, the base adopts the second line of defense of arranging patrol teams to patrol day and night.

These patrols are equipped with guns and bows and arrows, and if they catch anyone doing anything wrong, they will be severely punished!

This is the most fundamental reason to ensure that such a large underground base does not experience chaos!

As soon as a scream was heard from the corner, it immediately attracted the attention of the patrol team.

"Don't move!" They quickly surrounded them, pointing their guns at Zhou Shuwan and Qi Mingyu.

The two men stood back to back. Around them, five or six people fell to the ground, covering their wounds and howling in agony.

Qi Mingyu raised his hands slightly and was about to speak when a slightly surprised voice suddenly came from the side: "Xiao Yu, Shu Wan, why are you here?"

The voice was familiar. Turning around, I saw it was Xiao Xiao who was putting the pistol back into her waist.

Zhou Shuwan was also surprised. Wasn't Xiao Xiao in the water protection team? How come he was in charge of the security of the underground base!

"He's a friend, and he used to be one of us." Xiao Xiao waved her hand, signaling the other patrols to put away their weapons, and asked with a smile, "What's going on? It's okay if he doesn't show up normally, but when he does, he has to make a splash!"

He glanced at the people who had fallen to the ground.

Just a glance and you know what happened.

Qi Mingyu briefly explained, and Xiao Xiao waved to have the robbers taken away. She then walked over to look at the two of them, her tone tinged with envy: "I haven't seen you for a while. How come you two are getting along better and better? You look so energetic!"

Looking at himself, he had stubble on his chin, bloodshot eyes, and slightly sunken cheeks, looking like he hadn't slept well for several days.

Qi Mingyu and Zhou Shuwan exchanged a glance, and the former frowned slightly: "What's wrong with you? Where's the water protection team?"

Xiao Xiao gestured for the patrol team to leave, then sighed softly, "Your prediction was correct. The high temperatures arrived shortly after you left. Thankfully, thanks to your reminder, our water protection team, including Team Leader Du, have quietly stockpiled supplies for hot weather, especially water..."

The first to get the moon is the one near the water!

They didn't have to do much, but with the large-tonnage cruise ships and thick water pipes available, it was no trouble for them to get more water.

After the high temperature, we exchanged the water for a batch of supplies. To be honest, our life is better than that of ordinary people.

However, once the flood receded, the cruise ships became useless.

They can only restart the use of large trucks and vans to transport water, which requires more manpower.

As long as the car moves, it needs gasoline!

Whether it is water resources or gasoline energy, they are all very scarce materials!

All forces were vying to place people in, and the atmosphere in the entire water protection team was filled with chaos.

Xiao Xiao is a person with a relatively pure character. Thinking of the reminders from Qi Mingyu and Zhou Shuwan, he submitted an application, left the water protection team, and stayed in the service hall for a while. After the underground base was built, he came here to serve as a team leader of the security team!

Zhou Shuwan had actually anticipated the future situation of the water protection team, so she decided to leave early.

After listening to Xiao Xiao's brief account of what happened after they parted, he finally understood the real reason why he left.

"What about Team Leader Du? What about Mingyue? Are they still in the water protection team?" she asked.

Xiao Xiao nodded and then shook her head: "Team Leader Du is still in the water protection team."

Given Team Leader Du's status, no matter how many people come later, it will not shake his position as team leader.

"Mingyue and I quit together, but when we were assigned later, I came to this underground base and she was assigned to the Tzu Chi apartment."

There are very few female soldiers, especially those who are among the top ten in terms of martial arts skills like Meng Mingyue. The Tzu Chi Apartment only accepts women, children and the elderly, so they need more female soldiers!

"The treatment there is better than here," Xiao Xiao explained.
