Chapter 318 Goodbye Brother Guangjie
Chapter 318 Goodbye Brother Guangjie
Seeing that person running upstairs, in order to find a place to rest as soon as possible, I quickly took out a pack of cigarettes from my pocket and distributed them to the gatekeepers one by one, greeting them politely while passing out cigarettes: "Come on, take one, big brothers."
In reality, what man doesn’t smoke? Especially the tall man who stopped me at the beginning, took out a cigarette and pinched it in his hand. Suddenly, the atmosphere at the scene relaxed, and everyone’s face turned polite. Others also put down their things, got this hard-earned cigarette, and started looking for lighters.
I couldn't wait to take a puff, so the tall guy asked me directly if I had any fire.
I quickly took out a new lighter from the supermarket shelf and handed it to him. I don't usually smoke, so I have an unused lighter. While helping him light the cigarette, I asked him what his name was, "Big Brother".
Seeing my politeness, the big guy was no longer on guard and told me to just call him Engineer Li. He didn't want me to light a cigarette and directly took the lighter from my hand. Seeing that it was a new lighter, he was very surprised and asked me, "Brother, you really have everything. This lighter is still new!"
I couldn't help but sigh, this was something that no one would pick up if it was thrown on the ground before, but now it has become a precious item. Seeing that he didn't want to return it to me, I didn't take it either.
After smoking, our relationship seemed to become much closer and he stopped stopping me. He told the smoking guys to continue guarding, and he took me upstairs while smoking. He said that he was the original technician here, and everyone called him Engineer Li. He was originally proficient in the growth data of the base, but now it's all over, and there is nothing left in the base!
I felt the same way and asked curiously, "You don't have any food left?"
When he heard me suddenly ask about such a sensitive topic as food, he suddenly stared at me vigilantly, confirming once again whether I was here to see Lao Zhao, or if I was a spy from the Fugui Gang?
It was also my fault for my reckless words that caused misunderstanding. I quickly explained to him that I was indeed here to see Lao Zhao, and we hated the people from the Fugui Gang. I also told him that we were originally residents of the Mid-Levels Base. While I was explaining, my little sister Zhenzhu and her dog suddenly fell out of my space and almost hit Engineer Li. At this time, something surprising happened. Engineer Li actually fell to the side and a pile of dirt appeared out of thin air next to him. He fell on the pile of dirt but was not injured.
I asked my little sister why she came out of my space?
My little sister also asked me back with a look of resentment: "Don't you know that the time limit has come?"
Oh, it turned out that she was kicked out of my supermarket lounge because of time constraints. Fortunately, my grandfather brought little Muen, Shan Ziyu, Yang Yuxuan and others to live in the Yuansha array at the beginning, otherwise where would they be accommodated in this cold weather? Little Muen is only two months old. When I thought of this, I became more anxious and wanted to go to the Yuansha array to see what was going on? Although I was anxious, things had to be done step by step. Besides, I saw that the cooling time of my dimension array had not yet expired, so I had to endure it for a while.
Mr. Li was very curious and asked me in shock where this girl came from.
I explained to him that I am a person with spatial abilities. Well, this is my sister and I just brought her in.
"Superpower?" Engineer Li looked at us and muttered to himself in disbelief.
But when I saw Engineer Li slowly standing up from the ground, I realized something and asked, "Engineer Li, are you also a superpower?"
Hearing my question, he asked me in surprise: "Do you know what's going on? Since a month ago, I have been able to occasionally conjure up some soil..."
The Daxing base was a logistics base supervised by the state after the disaster. It was originally guarded by someone, but since the flood, the supervisory cadres have all withdrawn to the mid-mountain base. Li Gong and Brother Guangjie are generally local residents here, with their families including the elderly and children. It is freezing outside, and the government did not allocate evacuation vehicles for them because of the weather. Although some young and strong people left, saying that they were going to other bases, some people stayed.
There were less than a hundred people gathered in this office building.
During this period, because the Fugui Gang often came to harass them, they also witnessed the emergence of people with special powers, but the enemy was too powerful, so they could only find ways to protect themselves.
I asked curiously, how did you get super powers, and how many people here have super powers?
As we were chatting, we had unknowingly reached the top floor of the building. This floor was originally a spacious auditorium, but now it is completely unrecognizable. I looked around and found that the wooden chairs that were supposed to be placed had been removed and used as fuel to resist the cold. Currently, a group of people lived in the auditorium in a mess, roughly estimated to be about 180 people, most of whom were elderly.
After asking, I learned that these people were the left-behind farmers in the Daxing base and their families.
Finally, I met the man who had come back to tip us off. Seeing that we had come up, he greeted me warmly and turned his head to say to Engineer Li: "Captain Zhao said he knows a friend named Huo Fei."
After a few steps through the crowd, I saw Brother Zhao Guangjie lying on an iron bed. After just two months of separation, he seemed to have aged ten years. Next to him sat a woman of the same age as him. After he introduced her, I learned that she was Brother Zhao's wife. I hurried forward, respectfully called her "sister-in-law", and then shook hands tightly with Brother Zhao Guangjie.
Brother Guangjie invited my sister and I to sit down. I began to look at Brother Guangjie's bed. This bed was also the kind of wire mesh bed I had seen at Shengbin Base. It seemed that many places were equipped with this kind of bed after the disaster. The bedding on the bed could no longer see its original color. Brother Zhao Guangjie saw me observing his bed and explained to me a little embarrassedly: "After the flood, everyone rushed to rescue some luggage and piled it up on this floor." Then he sighed: "Oh, who knew why the weather suddenly turned into this?"
It showed his helplessness and confusion about the situation.
In order to ease the embarrassment, I pulled my younger sister over and introduced Zhenzhu to Brother Zhao Guangjie. I was also afraid of showing off my wealth, so I just said that we were passing by here to escape famine and wanted to take my younger sister here to stay for one night. We would go to Shengbin Base tomorrow.
Mr. Li seemed to have suddenly thought of something and discussed with me curiously, "You said you are a space-related mutant, so did you put away the motorcycle you rode when you came here?"
I nodded and said yes. He wanted to ask me something else but was stopped by Brother Zhao Guangjie. Brother Guangjie said to me with the same enthusiasm and kindness as when I first met him: "It's okay, Xiao Huo and your sister can stay here." "But," he said hesitantly, "but you have seen the conditions here, if you don't mind..."
Brother Guangjie’s wife is very kind-hearted and asked us if we had eaten yet.
Looking at their condition, I couldn't bear it and asked, "What? Do you have any food?"
My sister-in-law replied that the food we eat is not that good, but it’s okay to give you a bite.
After chatting for a while, I found out that Brother Guangjie had rheumatic leg disease and was unable to move in the cold and wet weather.
I said I could cure this disease because I have the ability to heal. After helping me heal Brother Guangjie's leg, he was able to stand up flexibly and paced back and forth in the corridor for several circles. Seeing me, he was so grateful that tears almost fell.
