Startled by Tom, Zhao Xin stopped pushing him into the Awakeners team.
Tom once again instructed him not to reveal anything about himself, including his abilities.
After all, Tom joined the mission as Duan Fei at this time, and Song Ren asked Tom to use this identity, except for the exception of avoiding special talents who cannot participate in exploration missions. Perhaps it was also to prevent Shen Jiayi from seeing this special task briefing and discovering Tom's name, which would remind her of such a person.
Tom doesn't pay as much attention to Shen Jiayi's recruitment plan as before, after all, he has experienced various problems in the shelter and potential conflicts that may arise in the future. He thinks it's better to stay away from this vortex.
He and Zhao Xin finished patrolling the guard post and then went down to the bottom to check the situation below, which was the end.
The night watch is still a shift of three people, and Tom arranges himself from 2 to 6 in the morning, which is the time when people are most sleepy and also the time when accidents are most likely to occur.
So after finishing the inspection, Tom was ready to enter the sleeping box and rest early.
As a result, Yang Caishan stood by his sleeping box early and looked at him with a smile on her face.
Zhao Xin, who followed, had a clear mind and eyes. Seeing this situation, he naturally understood the meaning and immediately said he wanted to go for convenience. He turned around and left, leaving space and time for them.
Zhao Xin's gaze before leaving made Yang Caishan blush, and she remembered the words from Captain Kent before skydiving.
The secluded compartment of the guard box? She just went to check it out, and it was a small dark compartment in the corner where the police equipment was placed. It was indeed quite secluded.
"That... thank you for protecting me, Tom."
Tom smiled and said, "This is a fair trade."
"This is unfair!" Yang Caishan immediately retorted, "I know, because I am using this news to threaten you and implicate you. Yuan Feixing's father wants Yuan Feipeng to die, Yuan Feixing's mother wants me to die, but you are innocent."
Tom shook his head and said, "Song Ren would also want me to die."
Tom was referring to the possibility analyzed by Yuan Feipeng. Song Ren was afraid that Tom would be valued by General Manager Shen Jiayi, and Yang Caishan also understood. "That was just Yuan Feipeng's guess, but no matter what, as long as you don't leave the shelter, they won't dare to think ill of you. So it's me who hurt you, and I want to compensate you. The sleeping box is too small, over there..."
Tom was stunned for a moment, but immediately interrupted, "Then complete the remaining part of the transaction and tell me where you got that pendant."
Yang Caishan was a bit disappointed, and she wanted to go to that compartment with Tom and make good compensation for him. After all, which man didn't want to sleep among the beautiful women and celebrities on the screen before? When he thought of returning to the shelter, being informed of the debt, and implying to send her to Yuan Feixing's house, Yuan Feixing's gaze at her was so naked.
Unfortunately, Tom didn't take it to heart, or at all, he didn't have this desire from beginning to end and simply demanded the transaction reward.
Yang Caishan sighed before slowly saying, "This pendant is a pawn in Zhang Fatty's store. I found it very interesting, so I asked Yuan Feixing to come over."
Tom was taken aback for a moment and said, "Pawn item? Zhang Fatty is the Zhang Chengjiang who opened the black market, right? But that pendant is not valuable. Who would pawn it?"
"Yes, Zhang Chengjiang," Yang Caishan couldn't help but laugh when she mentioned the chubby Zhang. "That pendant was taken by the chubby Zhang, and he was intimidated by the other party, giving him a lot of contribution votes."
"Who's it?" Tom's expression became nervous, which surprised Yang Caishan a bit. Faced with the mutated black dog, I didn't see him so nervous. It seems that this pendant is really important to him.
So Yang Caishan said softly, "Do you still remember the nanny in my house, Mrs. Yun? It was her. Because she used to be the CEO of a state-owned enterprise, with a strong background and a strong aura. She brought something in pawn, which naturally intimidated Zhang Chengjiang. But later, Zhang Fatty understood and led someone to set up a bureau to deal with her once, causing her to owe more debt. In the end, he sent her to my house as a servant to pay off the debt."
Tom nodded suddenly and after a while, he asked, "What is her name? She also lives in your house?"
"It seems like her name is... Ni Peiyun. She has a house in Hope Town, and most of the time she lives with me. When she goes back, I'll help you ask where she got that pendant. It can be considered as sending Buddha to the West."
"Okay, thank you then," Tom thought for a moment. "Since that's the case, I'll take a break first and have to take turns later."
"This..." Yang Caishan opened her mouth and wanted to mention the secluded compartment, but as she watched Tom open the coffin like sleeping box, she couldn't open her mouth and could only leave reluctantly.
Quiet, partitioned, and resting.
Yang Caishan's suggestion was completely ignored by Tom, and his mind kept spinning the information she provided.
When he sneaked into Yuan Feixing's house with Cheng Fuhua that day, a maid inside was very difficult to talk to. I didn't expect her to bring her sister's pendant back to the shelter.
This has given Tom a lot of thought, but why bother to think about things about men and women?
However, since Yang Caishan agreed to help him inquire about the source of the pendant, I believe there will be news soon.
But for the sake of safety, Tom decided to let Ouyang Haotian, who was working in the security department, inquire about it after returning and take a dual approach. If Yang Caishan can't find a result, he will ask himself.
After thinking it through, Tom closed his sleeping box and fell asleep peacefully. After all, the safety factor of the guard post is higher, and Yuan Feipeng seems to be taking things seriously. At least he shouldn't wander around while on duty.
That night was silent and nothing happened. At around six o'clock in the morning, Tom woke them up, ate breakfast rations, and then started packing up and setting off for the shelter.
In the car, Yuan Feipeng suddenly raised a question: "Are you willing to hand over these two level 5 crystals to the shelter?"
The two level 5 crystals, one blue and one green, were dug out from the bodies of Black Dog and Grey Dog respectively. In addition, they also have an additional level 2 yellow crystal inside their bodies. The presence of double crystals in the body is a standard characteristic of secondary mutant organisms.
"As you said, the green crystal inside Little Grey's body belongs to me." The eleven year old boy Fan Jie was a bit anxious. "Do you want to go back on your word?"
"Shelter all control measures, so when people return, they have to hand in all the crystals on their bodies. Those that belong to you will eventually be exchanged for contribution tickets," Zhao Xin explained.
"I don't want that contribution ticket, I just want the crystal left by my little gray."
Eliminating carrying crystals is indeed a troublesome task, and Tom also has a headache. To secretly make armor, he needs a red crystal as the driving force. However, after returning, he also had to hand in his crystals, and these two largest level 5 crystals were naturally not spared.
Yuan Feipeng smiled and said, "We can hide it. If we escape from the shelter in the future, we can take it away. How about that?"
Zhao Xin didn't buy it. "Cut, the shelter is a dead end for you. Of course you want to find an opportunity to escape, otherwise... don't go back, we'll say you were eaten by a dog during the mission."
"No, my parents are still inside. My dad's treatment fee is waived, but my mom still needs me to take care of her," Yuan Feipeng said. "We need to have a long-term plan and hide these two largest ones."
"Where are you hiding?" Zhao Xin asked, "There are mutated creatures everywhere. Don't tell me you want to bury them."
Tom smiled and said, "I know there's a good place, but let's go back to the factory area of Haiwei Mini Industry first."
So the car continued to run, and along the way, there were still scattered insects harassing them, but for them, it was not a problem.
Finally, around three o'clock in the afternoon, they drove into the large square where the shelter was located.
Tom instructed Yuan Feipeng to drive the car to a lamp post, which was just outside the corner of the large square. Due to the terrain and distance, the camera in the shelter could not capture this area.
This is the blind spot that Tom observed carefully when he came out.
The glass lamp post buried underground is a very obvious landmark. In fact, Shanghai Wei Mini Industry marked the number on the lamp post when it was built here, so that the small person who came out can quickly determine their location.
The glass searchlight is buried on the ground and fixed with a metal lampshade on the outer layer. Tom only needs to use the metal shapeshifting ability to break open the metal lampshade and then he can drill in.
Inside are small LED beads, and there is a relatively large space below.
Two level 5 crystals taller than humans are completely empty when stuffed in, and the plastic bag containing the crystals can be sealed to avoid attracting mutated creatures to come up.
Since we have done it thoroughly, Tom directly hid the Jade Rabbit Type II armor here. But he took out the box containing an unknown liquid that could delay the effects of the ability, and poured the liquid inside into a water bottle.
This is a good thing, although I don't know its ingredients, it will always be useful when it comes with it.
"I'll put this in too," Zhao Xin said angrily, stuffing one of his fourth level red crystals into a plastic bag. "It took so much effort, how could we not afford a cheap shelter, hmph."
"Then I..." Yang Caishan was wearing blue crystal, but as she was about to stuff it in, she noticed Tom staring at the blue crystal in a daze.
"Tom? What's wrong?"
Tom had a chain mission in his plan. He had killed a mutated dog in Longyao Home, and the level 5 red crystal inside was his loot.
However, after returning to the shelter, it did not convert him into a contribution ticket. Later, Ouyang Haotian inquired and found out that his crystal had been returned, as if he intended to reward him. However, it was intercepted by a captain of the security department and placed in the warehouse of the security department building.
As for whether it is true, it cannot be determined, and this matter is limited to hearsay.
To retrieve his own crystal, Tom needs to infiltrate the warehouse. The ability to mimic invisibility can help him avoid the clearance operation of the building security.
To use simulated invisibility, you need a blue crystal.
Now Yang Caishan is holding the blue crystal that Tom needs, and of course he is a bit tempted.
While Tom was hesitating about how to bring it back, he didn't hear Yang Caishan's inquiry, which further strengthened her speculation: "Do you want this?"
Tom almost instinctively nodded before realizing it, and had to reluctantly say, "Forget it, I can't bring it back anyway. The inspectors have instruments that can detect the radiation of crystals. Even if a level 1 crystal is hidden on their body, it will still be discovered. Forget it."
Yang Caishan's mind twitched and then withdrew the blue crystal from her pocket. "I have a solution," she said
