Chapter 7. Collecting Protection Fees

Chapter 7. Collecting Protection Fees

Ultimately, Liu Miaomiao still convinced the others to let Lin Xinghai become their roommate.

The reason why these people could reach an agreement was entirely because Wang Yao asked, "What if your old classmate can't help but wants to do something bad to us, then what?"

After Liu Miaomiao blushed and said, "If he really wants to do something, then let him come at me first." After this sentence, all disputes came to an end.

Looking at the five women who came back, Lin Xinghai couldn't help but ask, "Say, you haven't consulted my opinion yet. How come you are so sure that I will definitely agree to be your roommate?"

"Oh! Don't you still like to live with several rough men?" Liu Miaomiao raised her eyebrows and said.

Lin Xinghai was immediately choked up. Unless he had a problem with his sexual orientation, he really couldn't make such a choice.

"Cough!" Lin Xinghai coughed lightly, covering up his embarrassment, and then quickly said solemnly, "Liu Miaomiao, I have a very important thing to tell you."

"What's the matter?" Liu Miaomiao also became nervous all of a sudden.

"Well, after I woke up from the hibernation pod, I seemed to have lost my memory. Um! Partial memory loss." Lin Xinghai said straightforwardly.

This was the more reasonable reason he could think of. No matter whether others believed it or not, anyway, he believed it.

Sure enough, Liu Miaomiao and the others all showed surprised expressions, "Did the hibernation system malfunction? This is very rare!"

Hearing Liu Miaomiao say so, Lin Xinghai was immediately overjoyed. He really guessed right, and there was really such a thing. He was just about to continue with the words.

However, Liu Miaomiao continued to speak, "But it's okay. Just spend some points to go to the medical pod and inject brain cell repair fluid to solve it. Do you want me to accompany you?"

Lin Xinghai really wanted to curse, did technology develop so fast?

"No need. I feel that my memory is gradually recovering. There's no need to waste precious points. I said this just to let you know this." Lin Xinghai said.

"Really?" Liu Miaomiao was a little suspicious.

"Absolutely true!" Lin Xinghai said solemnly.

Next, everyone didn't continue to dwell on this problem. Liu Miaomiao introduced the other four women.

The one with the hottest figure was Wang Yao, which Lin Xinghai already knew. As for the remaining three, they were called Qin Zixue, Yang Yi, and Shen Yimei respectively.

After everyone introduced each other, the time was almost up, and then it was time for the dormitory allocation.

However, before the dormitory allocation, everyone had to re-verify the information, and this information was retrieved from the database of the 83rd shelter.

After confirming that it was correct, the information would be recorded in the identity card.

This identity card, in addition to having the function of an ID card in the shelter, was also equivalent to a bank card, and each identity card had 10 initial points.

One point could buy a low-level nutritious meal. That is to say, if one was frugal, it was equivalent to three days' worth of food here.

As for later, each person would have to find another way out.

However, the Star Shield Shelter was in the stage of expansion and was in great need of labor, so there was no worry about not being able to find a job.

After Lin Xinghai and others received their identity cards, they were uniformly assigned to Room 301 of Building D.

It is worth mentioning that when several people applied for the same dormitory, the registrar's expression was not ordinary.

But he didn't deliberately make trouble. After confirming that all the women were voluntary, he directly arranged it.

...

"Oh my god, this is too shabby!" Pushing open the door of Room 301, after several women walked around, they couldn't help but exclaim.

The entire dormitory only had 3 bunk beds, and they were the upper and lower bunk types. As for electrical appliances, there was only one energy-saving lamp, and not even a fan.

In addition, there was no bathroom in the dormitory, and there wasn't even a faucet.

There were only two public bathrooms and one faucet on the entire floor.

And the faucet required swiping the identity card to release water, and it cost 3 points for a bucket of water.

This was also the reason why Lin Xinghai saw so many people not taking a bath on the road. The water was not cheap at all.

Fortunately, the senior management of the shelter was not so inhumane. At least they provided them with daily necessities such as bedding.

After the women simply sorted out their beds a little bit, they began to complain about what to do in the future?

"We have to find a job within two days according to what is described on this piece of paper. But the positions listed here are really too few for us women." Liu Miaomiao said with a worried face while holding the paper that Ji Yuan had someone distribute.

"Those introduced are either the mixture factory or the clothing factory. I don't want to go to those positions. On the way here, I saw that many shops seem to be recruiting salespeople. Why don't we go and have a look?" At this time, Wang Yao also said.

"Don't you all pay attention to the salary? I don't want to not even have enough points to take a bath." This time it was Qin Zixue who spoke. Among several people, she should be the one who loved cleanliness the most.

The women were all chattering about their own opinions, while Lin Xinghai was quietly watching at the side. At this moment, he was very glad that he joined the Cracked Sky Mercenary Group.

Suddenly, Shen Yimei who was standing at the door of the room let out a soft cry, "What's going on outside? Why is it so noisy?"

As she said that, she opened the door and walked out.

There was also a curious expression on Lin Xinghai's face at this time.

Because his hearing was the best among the people present, in addition to the quarrel, he also heard the sound of fighting.

Soon, Shen Yimei came back and had a trace of panic on her face.

"Yimei, what's wrong?" Liu Miaomiao asked the first time.

"Someone is collecting protection fees. They are a group of guys who call themselves the Axe Gang. They are very capable. I saw a thin young man knock down a 200-pound strong man with one punch." Shen Yimei said with a trembling voice.

"What! What about the security team? Are they just sitting idly by?" Liu Miaomiao was immediately surprised.

Lin Xinghai came to the window, glanced at the street below and said, "The security team has left. And the population density in the lower area is so great. I guess they want to manage but can't do much."

He also heard Roger mention these things. There were indeed many small groups of hooligans in the lower area.

So the lower area has carried out several major crackdowns and sent these hooligans to reform through labor, but they still remain the same after being released after serving their sentences.

Besides, in general, they did things with some "discretion". They never caused a death and never pushed ordinary people too hard.

So in most cases, if they weren't caught red-handed by the members of the security team, there was no way to deal with them afterwards.

Over time, this situation has formed now.

Lin Xinghai also didn't expect that on the first day he came to the Star Shield Shelter, he would encounter such a thing.
