Wasteland Survival Code

Chapter 668 Distribution of Materials
This is a boy about twelve or thirteen years old. From his sunken cheeks and bony figure, it can be seen that he should be an aborigine in the slums, rather than running here from some other place.

"Survivors found.".Qi Lin said softly, and tiptoed into the room, and the other three followed after erasing the footprints at the door. As soon as the last falcon entered the room, No. [-] clicked the time on the screen of that device , the airtight door closed again, isolating the room from the tunnel.

Qi Lin took off his breathing mask, walked to a place about two meters away from the little boy, and then said softly: "Stop pretending, get up."

"Ah—" As soon as Qi Lin finished speaking, the little boy who was still sleeping suddenly jumped up and stabbed Qi Lin with a short stick, but the short stick was in Qi Lin's hand in the next second, The little boy was picked up by the tall falcon.

In fact, when the airtight door was opened, the little boy had already been awakened, his body trembled slightly, and his breathing rhythm accelerated a lot, and all of this was under Qi Lin's eyes.

The little boy restrained by the falcon was about to yell, but Qi Lin stepped forward quickly, covered his mouth, and said, "It's best not to yell, if anyone finds out, none of us, including you, will survive." .”

The little boy's eyes widened. At this moment, he had time to look at the attires of Qi Lin and the others. His eyes quickly swept around the four of them, showing a mixture of fear and doubt. look.

"If you can promise not to yell, not run around, and cooperate with us, then nod, and we can let you down." Qi Lin said in a calm tone as much as possible.

The little boy hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly.

Falcon immediately put him down.

"Who are you? Soldiers of the Aedas Consortium?" The little boy asked immediately after regaining his freedom.

"No, we are not." Qi Lin shook his head.

"I don't believe it...except for people from the Aedas Consortium, no one here can afford to wear this kind of clothes, and you still have guns!" The little boy's gaze stayed on the weapons of the four for several seconds, obviously , he is very yearning for this kind of tool used to kill people.

"We are really not members of the Aedas Consortium. You see, none of us have the emblem of the Aedas Consortium."

"Then where did you come from?" The curiosity in the little boy's eyes grew stronger, but the element of fear was much less.

"Other shelters. Well, I'm not here to answer your question, on the contrary, I want to know something from you."

"Other shelters? Are you enemies of the Edas Consortium?"

"Do I need to repeat what I just said?"

"Okay...if you don't kill me." The little boy looked very calm. This kind of calm should not appear on a child of twelve or thirteen years old, but in the environment of the shelter, most children would Become very precocious, and they will be exposed to the cruel reality earlier than the children of the old age.

In other words, they have always been with each other with the cruel reality.

"Do you live alone?"

"It is."

"I said before."

"Father, mother, and a brother and a sister."

"Then where did they go? And where did everyone else here go?"

"The food processing factory... But they haven't come back for two days and one night, I guess they are dead." The little boy said.

"Food processing factory? Tell me carefully what happened during this period, and why do you think they are dead."

"About two days ago, a broadcast suddenly sounded..." The little boy pointed to the loudspeaker in the corner of the ceiling, "People from the Aedas Consortium told us that the leadership within the consortium has been reorganized, and the new The board decided to change the situation and promised better living conditions for poor people like us."

"And then?" Apart from the so-called "high-level reorganization of the consortium", that is, the news of the rebellion, Qi Lin also broadcasted "improved living conditions and increased food rations" when he lived in the slums of Vault 187. Can be heard now and then.

The shelter officials will broadcast it about every few months, and in the week after the broadcast ends, the poor can generally receive an extra bag of synthetic food or half a can, and then everything will continue as usual.

In fact, it was an empty note, drawing a pie for poor people who couldn't fill their stomachs. Its main function was to appease the residents of the slums. After all, no one knows what crazy things a group of desperate people will do. , but if there is a little hope and hope left in these people's hearts, then at least it will make them cherish their lives even more.

"Not long after, the announcement rang again, asking everyone from the 9th tunnel to the 32nd tunnel to gather at the 'Merlin' food processing factory. They said that after the reorganization of the Aedas Consortium, every resident of Vault 444 should The benefits they enjoy, they will distribute a large amount of food outside the food processing factory, so that everyone can have a good meal. But the premise is that everyone must be present, because the supplies are distributed according to the head, and they are not allowed to pick up on behalf of them. If you go, you won’t have anything to take.”

"Then everyone else went? Then why didn't you go?" Qi Lin asked.

"I just happened to have a stomachache and diarrhea... They couldn't wait any longer, worried that the things would be divided, so they left me alone at home..."

"go on."

"Then they never came back, and I thought they had forgotten about me, until a troop of soldiers came—"

"Soldier?"

"Well, the soldiers of the Edas consortium, I only knew at that time that besides me, there were a few people in this tunnel who hadn't gone to collect the supplies, but after those soldiers opened the airtight door, they all Killed, although I didn't see it with my own eyes, but I heard gunshots and screams... so I guess, everyone else should have been killed." The little boy said, his hands clenched into fists.

"Then why did you survive?" Qi Lin asked a little puzzled.

"I hid on top of that." Following the little boy's fingers, Qi Lin discovered a row of lockers made of composite panels nailed to the wall two meters above the ground. It's hard to notice without looking up. , the little boy should have escaped by hiding in the locker before.

"And after that? Did anyone else come back? What did the soldiers do?"

The little boy shook his head: "No one has come back, so I don't know anything else."
