.....
In the Third Outer City.
After three rounds of checks, numerous cooperative personnel and extra staff, under He Chaoâs arrangement, are entering the Residential Building they helped construct.
This building hasnât been renovated and only has simple door and window installations.
Itâs very basic inside, not even a bed.
But at least itâs a place that can shelter them from the elements.
Li Yuan and Li Gang walk in with food, and on their return to the Big Camphor Tree Base, both Jiu Ge and that Qingyang Taoist made some contributions, so they were given some food along the way.
After returning, theyâve been busy the past few days and havenât distributed the food corresponding to the Contribution Points to them.
In addition to those two, both Zhong Chuchu and Shen Xiaoxiao played significant roles when dealing with the Motorcycle Gang.
Soon.
Li Yuan and Li Gang distribute food to them, and todayâs cooperative personnel and extra staff also redeem food and points for completed tasks.
The Qingyang Taoist feels a bit embarrassed looking at the bag of food on the ground.
To him, last time he repaid some of Li Yuâs kindness during the Zombie Tide by stopping zombies.
Getting food again makes him feel even more indebted.
"I, I, I feel unworthy, what I did was necessary..." the Taoist blushes, speaking to Li Yuan in front of him.
Li Yuan is seeing such clear eyes for the first time, and also the first person refusing the food.
He had heard about the Taoist from Li Gang and had a good impression, so he laughed and said, "Big Camphor Tree Base has rules, rewards come with punishment. This is your due."
Seeing the Taoist still unwilling to accept the food, he directly handed the bag to his arms.
"Donât be so coy, just take it!" he said, with a hint of assertiveness in his tone.
Qingyang bumped into Li Yuanâs hand, and his face instantly turned red.
"Oh."
Li Yuan saw him obediently take the food with a blush, and laughed inwardly.
Men who arenât lazy or useless are as rare as endangered animals.
This little Taoist is quite interesting.
Soon, Li Yuan and Li Tie calculated Zhong Chuchuâs contributions and allocated the corresponding points and food to them for this cooperative battle.
After finishing everything, Li Yuan and Li Gang quickly left.
.....
After they left, He Chao began counting the people here and checking how many hadnât entered.
"Extra Staff, Group 11, Yu Mingâs group."
"Here." Yu Ming shouted from the crowd.
"Group 12, Bai Wenyangâs group."
There was no answer.
"Group 12, Bai Wenyang." He Chao raised his voice when no one responded.
"Did none of you see their group?" He Chao asked with a furrowed brow.
People exchanged confused glances, everyone indicating they hadnât seen them.
Suddenly, the group leader of extra staff Group 8, Yu Lei, who was close to Bai Wenyang, said, "Last time he mentioned going to a neighboring city for a mission, this was over a week ago, and they havenât been seen since."
"What?" He Chao frowned deeply.
......
Fifteen kilometers from Big Camphor Tree Base.
On the national highway.
Dust clouds everywhere.
Several vehicles are racing against the wind towards Big Camphor Tree Base.
Speeding furiously.
In the gusts, these vehicles seem so small and lonely.
"How about now, havenât gotten through to the base?"
"No idea whatâs going on, canât reach them at all, maybe itâs the weather."
"Damn it!" Bai Wenyang hit the steering wheel, accidentally triggering the horn.
A continuous beep sounded.
