Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 36 The Disappearing Walkie-Talkie
Lin Sanjiu's word "for the time being" can't shake Chen Jinfeng's enthusiasm at all - he slapped his hand suddenly and said in a passionate tone: "That's right! Believe me, everyone in the oasis will become history in the future. part of it, leaving an indelible name."

The few people who had been watching at the entrance of the factory all the time saw it from afar and knew they had joined; they couldn't help cheering, rushed to Lin Sanjiu and the others, clapping one by one.No one was perfunctory, everyone used their full strength; soon, thunderous applause attracted more people, and more palms clapped together.

"Welcome new members!"

Faced with such an enthusiastic crowd, Lin Sanjiu was even a little helpless.She turned her head to look at Lu Ze and Mather, and found that these two white-skinned guys were so embarrassed that their ears were red - Lu Ze noticed her eyes and whispered embarrassedly, "They are really embarrassed. Enthusiasm...I've never been so welcomed in my life."

Lin Sanjiu burst out laughing and felt the same way.

Chen Jinfeng made several pressing downward gestures in a row to stop the noise of the crowd.

"Compatriots, for the new members, the most important thing is to be familiar with the environment. The sun is out, everyone go to bed first, and at night, we will wash the dust for the new members!"

This remark immediately sparked another round of applause.

"Xiaoyu, go to the cafeteria to explain, we have three new members. Remember to give them extra meals at night!" Sister Li gave the order with a smile on her face, and immediately a girl with a short ponytail responded, running and jumping back the factory.The rest of the people were persuaded by Chen Jinfeng, and they all nodded and smiled at Lin Sanjiu and the others, and dispersed.

It seems that the people in the oasis have also figured out the law: under the sun during the day, no matter what you do, you will risk your life, and the best way is to hide and sleep.

Sister Li then said to several people: "The factory dormitory building is too hot during the day, so we made the two basement floors into cubicles, and moved the beds in the dormitory building... Come with me now and allocate the beds. Bar."

"Where is the best place to park the car?" Don't ask, it was Lin Sanjiu who was already determined to offend people and wasn't afraid to ask this question.

"Come in! There's an open space inside, just for parking." This time, Sister Li didn't see anything unpleasant, and smiled gently.

The three responded, went back to the car, started the car, drove into the factory area, and parked the car at a corner.

Walking inside, Lin Sanjiu realized how big the oasis was.The walls of four or five nearby factories were demolished, opening up a vast area.There are more than ten buildings in the oasis, each with two underground floors, which has now been converted into the residence of the members of the oasis.Each building is covered with a large area of ​​reflective cloth, glowing a white light under the dangerous sun - several people walked on the road for a while, and even felt that they could not open their eyes.

Sister Li squinted her eyes, glanced at everyone, and then smiled embarrassedly: "We'll be there soon—see the building numbered 42? The other buildings are full, and there are only ones there. It's empty."

"Since there are no people in the building, what is the purpose of putting the reflective cloth on?" Lin Sanjiu asked in confusion.

"Professor Bai is doing a thermal insulation experiment, hoping to reduce the indoor temperature to below 50°. When the temperature drops, we can all live in the building, and we can also perform soilless cultivation in the room..." Li As she spoke, she suddenly sighed: "If it were in the past, when I heard 50°, I wouldn't be scared to death! Thanks to the medicine developed by Professor Bai, everyone is more resistant to heat."

"What?" After hearing this, the three of them turned to look at Sister Li at the same time.

medicine?What is she saying?
Lin Sanjiu hesitated for a moment and was about to ask, but Sister Li had already led them all to Building 42.The girl named Xiaoyu with a short ponytail just now was standing at the door, waving at them with a warm smile and saying, "Sister Li! I have already arranged the bed, and I took some pillows and sheets from the warehouse to change it. Sister Li come over and take a look. ?"

"No, I don't worry about you doing things." Sister Li responded, then turned to the three of them and said with a smile: "You follow Xiaoyu next, she is in charge of the life in this building. You go in first, Xiaoyu and I will follow. Say two words."

The three nodded and smiled, feeling like they had entered a boarding school -- pushing the door and entering the corridor.

As soon as I entered the building, I immediately felt that the temperature was much lower, and the pores of the skin that had fainted from being roasted by the high temperature could also start to breathe-although it should be more than 50 degrees from the body sense, but it was not far behind; and Compared with the temperature that can kill people in the outside world, Professor Bai's thermal insulation test seems to have made quite an astonishing progress so far.

Lin Sanjiu was the last one to come in, she just retracted her back foot, and Xiao Yu pushed the door behind her.Facing her somewhat surprised eyes, Xiaoyu smiled hurriedly and motioned them to wait inside.Lin Sanjiu nodded, turned around and was about to leave, suddenly thought of something, and stopped again - her hands hidden behind her flashed white, and there was an extra walkie-talkie.

This is still left by the voles.

Not knowing what was going on, Lin Sanjiu wanted to hear what the Oasis people would say in private when outsiders were not around.When Xiaoyu turned around, she silently and quickly put the walkie-talkie behind the door, and then walked quickly into the hall on the first floor.Probably because they all went to bed, there was no one in the hall, only Lu Ze and Mather took all her actions into their eyes.

After all, they have experienced several lives and deaths together. Although the two were a little surprised, they didn't say anything and quickly adjusted their expressions to be natural.Lin Sanjiu took the walkie-talkie attached to Mather's waist, turned his back and pressed it.

From the sound of the current, Sister Li's voice came out.

"...Although Cadre Chen also came forward this time...but, I discovered it first...and I took them around..." After all, the walkie-talkie is not a bug, and it is separated by a door, and the sound quality sounds very bad. it is good.The three people's ears were about to be attached to each other, and finally a clear sentence came out - "Anyway, the three people this time should be considered mine, right?"

The three were stunned, looked at each other, and approached the walkie-talkie again.

Xiaoyu sounded like he was practicing Tai Chi: "...It should be yours...but this is up to Cadre Chen...why do you ask..."

"Look for him...a cadre in the hall..." Sister Li seemed to complain, and smiled at Xiaoyu with a bit of vigilance: "...you should not mention it to the outside world. You also know me..."

Xiaoyu nodded in agreement.

"Quick, put it away," Lu Ze, who had been watching the wind outside the door, suddenly urged, "They seem to be finished."

Lin Sanjiu hurriedly pressed the walkie-talkie, and Mather took it and pinned it on his waist. The three quickly distanced themselves.It just so happened that Xiaoyu had already said goodbye to Sister Li, and pushed the door and came in—Lin Sanjiu mentioned it, and glanced at the direction where she was hiding the walkie-talkie—but, it was too late to get it, because Xiaoyu had already He greeted with a smile: "Everyone, come with me and take a look at your dormitory in the future. We have worked hard to make it as comfortable as possible!"

No way, I had to find another chance to get it.Lin Sanjiu deliberately dragged his steps to the end, a white light flashed in his hand again, a card flew above the walkie-talkie, and turned into a black cloth to cover it.

Fortunately, I didn't notice all this light rain.This is a girl with a round face and a short stature. When she first met her, she felt warm and straightforward, but after a few chats, she could feel a kind of slickness that she developed from leaving society too early.But the slickness was hidden in her smile, but it wasn't annoying - Xiaoyu led a few people down to the first floor, smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "Because it's cooler downstairs, it's already full. You guys Come on, stay on the negative floor!"

With that said, he pushed open the iron door on the negative floor.

The original purpose of the two underground floors can no longer be seen at all—

The vast negative ground floor was divided into small single rooms by countless white building materials.On the building material board in front of each single room, a rectangular gap was opened to act as a door, and colorful and colorful curtains were hung.

The rooms are crowded together, the space is divided into several large pieces, and the aisle is cut into narrow strips.There were lights in the basement, but no electricity, and the narrow and crowded hallways looked even darker.There was a slight snoring in some rooms, mixed with the smell of the crowd, and the space filled with a strange, sleepy atmosphere.

"Come on, Ms. Lin will live here." After walking for seven or eight minutes after entering the door, Xiao Yu pulled up the cloth curtain at the door of a single room.Lin Sanjiu looked up, and saw the number: 8 written on his private room.

Lin Sanjiu glanced inside.

The iron canopy bed is not big, and is covered with a thin cushion.The pillow was flat, and a sheet was folded, presumably serving as a quilt.If this condition was placed before the arrival of the new world, it would be a proper slum; but for Lin Sanjiu, who had slept on a hard floor for a month, it was already quite good.

The rooms of Lu Ze and Mather are arranged far away, one in 1734 and one in 1736, and it takes more than 100 rooms to get there.Xiaoyu said it was because there were more and more people in the oasis, and the room was tight—"If Professor Bai's heat insulation test was completed earlier, we could all move into the building, and then I would definitely put the three of you together ’” she said with a smile.

"Then go over first, I'll settle down first." Lin Sanjiu hurriedly said to Xiaoyu - if you want to get back the walkie-talkie, this is a perfect opportunity.

Xiaoyu responded, ordered a few words, and left with Lu Ze and Mather.The group of them left before they left, and Lin Sanjiu immediately turned around and returned to the lobby on the first floor.

Pushing the door open, she looked around nervously—just like before, there was no one at all.

She rushed towards the door quickly, but she didn't expect that there was nothing behind the door, and there was no sign of the walkie-talkie.

Startled, she couldn't help but whisper "Huh?", her eyes wandering back and forth - just at this moment, a hand suddenly put on her shoulder from behind.

"What are you looking for?"
