Chapter 298 The Most Important Thing

When the convoy was going to the Central City Satellite City No. 7, night had already begun to fall.

Like Qinggang City, the Central City Satellite City No. 7 was not as strictly checked as the main city. Because the convoy would come to deliver goods every once in a while, they all had passes. Now they had more passes than their number.

Lu Xin also had a formal Qinggang identity, and it was a special identity certificate with a steel stamp.

Not to mention entering the city, it was possible to apply for a small loan in the Central City.

However, before entering the city, just like Qinggang, a special link must be experienced, that is, handing over weapons.

Whether it is Qinggang or the Central City, whether it is the main city or the satellite city, it is absolutely not allowed to enter the high wall with firearms. However, as people who run large goods all year round, Gao Ting and others naturally understand these rules. Long before entering the city, motorcycles had come and collected all the firearms. These firearms will be sent to a storage point outside the city and collected when leaving the city.

Some storage points with good services are even responsible for replenishing ammunition and firearms maintenance.

This can be regarded as a new type of service industry that has emerged after the Red Moon.

Lu Xin felt distressed for a moment, and then handed over his gun and put it together with the guns of Gao Ting and others. However, he only handed over the gun and ordinary bullets. Those special bullets were carefully stored and hidden secretly...

This thing is too expensive, and he is still a little worried about handing it over to others.

...

When the convoy entered the No. 7 Satellite City one by one, it was already eight o'clock in the evening. Gao Ting led the team and a row of trucks went straight to a familiar motel in the city. This was specially prepared for their convoys running wilderness transportation. There is a large parking lot, various types of guest rooms, meals and hot water, and various massage and hair washing shops of all sizes are located around.

This is to provide regular head massage and psychological counseling and comfort services for old drivers who are nervous and tired on the journey.

A group of old drivers have not slept for nearly two days and one night, and they are already very sleepy.

As soon as the car stopped, some people fell asleep on the steering wheel.

Only Gao Ting, Lao Zhou, Sun Gouzi and others forced their bloodshot eyes open to register, request rooms and food.

Lao Zhou looked at the tired old drivers with contempt: "These people are just not in good shape..."

"Look at me, I'm almost fifty, how energetic I am?"

"..."

In the world after the wilderness, there are no such complicated procedures, everything is simple, and the rooms have been booked soon.

Sun Gouzi blew a loud whistle to wake up the sleepy old drivers:

"Get up first, the driver said, eat something, wash your feet, and then go back to the room to sleep."

There are also limited rooms in the motel, and the team needs to save money, so not many rooms are needed.

Most of them have to sleep in the big bunk bed, and only those with more status can sleep in the standard room with bathroom. Lu Xin was assigned a standard room that was considered high-end, but he had to sleep with Lao Zhou and Xiao Zhou, uncle and nephew. There was no other way. If he didn't sleep with them, he would have to share a room with the head of the car. Lu Xin weighed the pros and cons and thought it was safer to share a room with them. .

"Uncle, I don't want to sleep with you..."

Xiao Zhou was a young man, and he was in good spirits. He hadn't slept for two days and one night, but he was still quite energetic at this time. He first ate a small pot of cabbage and pork stewed with vermicelli provided by the hotel, plus four steamed buns, and drank two bottles of beer.

When it was time to go to bed, he looked at his uncle with some disdain and said, "I can't sleep in the same bed with you. If I sleep on the same side with you, you grind your teeth and snore at night. If I don't sleep on the same side with you, you don't wash your feet, and the fumes make me dizzy..."

Then he looked at Lu Xin expectantly and said, "Brother Lu, can I share a bed with you?"

Lu Xin, who had just eaten a pot of pork stewed with vermicelli, was just coming out of the bathroom after taking a shower. Hearing this, he looked embarrassed.

"No."

He politely rejected Xiao Zhou and came out with his bag.

Although it was only eight or nine o'clock, the motel was already very quiet.

The old drivers checked in here, either they had already eaten, went to wash their hair to relieve fatigue, or had already fallen asleep.

After confirming that there was no one around, Lu Xin dialed a phone number that Han Bing had told him before.

"Hello, Blue Kite Pet Store..."

A man's voice soon sounded on the other side, very calm and magnetic.

Lu Xin followed the code Han Bing gave him when he left Qinggang and lowered his voice to ask, "Do you have cats there? The kind that don't shed."

The other party was silent for a moment and said, "How can a decent cat not shed?"

Lu Xin said, "Who would keep a cat that sheds?"

The other party said, "The more decent the cat, the more it sheds."

Lu Xin said, "Is it because I'm not decent enough?"

"..."

The voice on the other end of the phone paused for a while and changed its tone: "Is it Mr. Shanbing?"

Lu Xin smiled and nodded hurriedly: "It's me, it's me."

The person on the other end of the phone said, "Qinggang has already given me the phone number... In addition, Mr. Shanbing, you can just call me directly. I'm a regular staff member of the Central City Office, not a spy. The code is only used in emergencies."

"..."

Lu Xin was a little embarrassed: "The main reason is that I haven't tried the code when I called..."

"Now you have tried it..."

The other party said, "Has Mr. Shanbing arrived in the Central City now?"

"Yes."

Lu Xin said: "I am now staying in a hotel in Satellite City No. 7."

"Okay."

The other party said: "Qinggang has notified me. I will be responsible for helping you take care of the affairs in the central city, and receive the document you picked up on the road... and make a preliminary assessment of this document and the taboo experiment you encountered. But now the intercity high-speed train has stopped running, and I can't come to you until tomorrow. What you need to pay attention to now is that you must be careful at night."

Lu Xin was a little curious: "Will someone really come?"

"Not sure."

The other party said: "But I need to tell you that you notified Qinggang's Baita Town Experimental Base before. When our Qinggang special team went there to collect evidence, they found that the entire Baita Town had been burned by a wildfire, and there was no evidence..."

"Huh?"

Lu Xin was slightly alert.

It took only one day and one night from the time the convoy and himself left Baita Town to the central city.

In such a short time, the other party has cleaned up Baita Town?

The action was very fast and the strength was very strong...

He thought for a while and said, "I know. I will be careful."

Then he told the other party the name of the hotel and the room number and hung up the phone.

"The person who designed the secret code system of the office should be a nitpicker, right?"

When he returned to the room, he was still muttering in his heart.

...

Through the window, I saw that Lao Zhou, who was sleeping on the bed, and Xiao Zhou, who was sleeping on the floor, had fallen asleep at this time. Both of them were snoring loudly. Only Sun Gouzi was still in the corridor, patrolling on a bench. Their team was used to being cautious, and they encountered such a strange thing, so even if they arrived in the satellite city, they would arrange for people to stay awake in case of any movement.

Seeing Lu Xin, Sun Gouzi, who was sitting on the broken recliner, couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. He leaned forward, but didn't know what to say.

Before in Baita Town, he suspected Lu Xin, but he hadn't talked about it yet.

"Thank you for your hard work."

Lu Xin nodded to him, looked up at the ceiling, and said, "You must watch it carefully tonight..."

"Maybe something will happen, I can only rest assured with you watching me!"

"..."

"Ah?"

Sun Gouzi was a little surprised when he heard it, and then he showed an excited and excited expression and stood up quickly.

"Lu... Brother Lu, don't worry, I'll be watching, and everyone can sleep peacefully!"

"Huh?"

Lu Xin glanced at him and nodded: "Oh."

Men are so easily moved.

He was obviously talking to his sister on the ceiling, but he looked so excited that he was about to cry.

"Okay, thank you."

Lu Xin nodded to him, smiled and looked at his sister hanging on the roof, and turned back to the room.

The bed was a hard bed, and the quilt still smelled a little sour, but for Lu Xin who had been on the road for several days, it felt good.

Lu Xin woke up on time at about seven o'clock the next day, his bones crackling all over.

When he went out of the room, he saw that the old drivers were already eating breakfast in high spirits. When Xiao Zhou saw Lu Xin, he ran over with a bowl of porridge and four or five meat buns wrapped in old newspapers, and said with a smile: "Brother Lu, did you sleep well last night?"

"I slept just fine in the first half of the night."

Lu Xin answered honestly. The uncle and nephew had been competing in snoring.

One was like a rushing river, ups and downs, and the other was like a flowing water, suddenly emerging as a sudden force...

It was too intense, and it was hard to tell who would win. In the end, both of them won, and only Lu Xin lost.

"So you slept well in the second half of the night?"

Xiao Zhou said happily: "Hurry up and eat, we will go to deliver the goods later."

"Delivery?"

Lu Xin was stunned for a moment.

After such a thing happened, they were still in a hurry to deliver the goods...

Xuan Ji reacted.

For this team, no matter what happened, it might not be as important as delivering the goods...

Handing over the goods smoothly, completing the mission of this trip, and getting the payment for the goods are the most important things in their eyes.

After all, they made this trip and worked hard to earn this money, and they also rely on it to support their families.

In addition, the more than 20 people who died in the team also need this money to pay pensions and resettlement expenses.

To put it another way, even if something really happened, after delivering the goods, they can concentrate on dealing with it.

The world in everyone's eyes is different...

Lu Xin thought, nodded, took the buns and porridge, and said, "Then I will go with you later."
