"Is this a relative or a friend of yours?" It was not the first time that the staff at the administrative center processed documents for outsiders to enter the camp. The smile on his face faded a little, and he began to ask routine questions.
"They are friends. They all came from the base. They came to my house to play for a few days this time." Cai Min replied.
"Hey, are these two people psychics?" The staff saw the information indicating that Yan Fan and Chen Yanxi were both D-level psychics.
"They are all ice-type psychics. Isn't this the same as your husband? I remember your husband is also an ice-type psychic, right?"
Xu Xuesong nodded immediately: "I am an ice-type ability user, but I have very few abilities. Usually I just make some ice cubes to cool down."
"The payment for six people for six days is a total of 2160 points."
Cai Min quickly took out his points card. This points card can actually be used in any wanderer base, black market base, or Jiangcheng base. This is also the most convenient aspect of virtual currency.
After obtaining the "accommodation permit", the two returned home and went to the village entrance to wait for people at around ten o'clock.
After seeing two cars, one gray and one black, approaching from a distance, Cai Min tried to wave his hands, and sure enough, he heard a horn sound from the front.
Seeing the couple standing at the intersection, Gu Tongwan stopped the car temporarily. "Xiao Li, I'll get off. You let Liao Yunyun come up and drive for me." After saying this, Gu Tongwan opened the car door and jumped out.
"Wanwan, where are you going?" Xiaoli shouted behind her.
"I'll go say hello first. After all, we haven't seen each other for a while. Let's chat for a while." In fact, Gu Tongwan didn't dare to say that this was the first time she appeared in front of the couple as a girl. She had to say hello formally after all.
Previously, because it was just a transaction relationship, Gu Tongwan had always used identities such as "Boss Gu" and "Mr. Gu" when he went out, and for the sake of convenience, he tried to disguise himself before going out. The reason why he was willing to put down his disguise was because he had investigated the situation of the Cai couple, and he might need to conduct long-term business dealings in the future. In this case, there was no need to always use the identity of a man, otherwise, once the truth was revealed in the future, it would destroy the trust relationship that had been hard to establish between the two parties.
This was the first time the couple met Gu Tongwan after the acid rain. There was a gap of about four months, but during these months they kept in touch with each other online. Since Gu Tongwan was a girl, they also communicated through mobile phone messages.
Even though it was the first time that a girl met both of them, neither of them felt any sense of strangeness. After all, their figure and facial features still gave them a glimpse of the shadow of the former "Boss Gu".
However, Cai Min was still amazed by Gu Tongwan, who had "restored" her female body. She had originally thought that although Boss Gu was thin, his facial features were actually not ugly. If she was disguised as a formal girl, her original appearance would at least be pretty. But now she really was a beautiful girl, and more beautiful than any girl Cai Min had seen after the apocalypse. In addition to her appearance and delicate facial features, the most attractive thing was the girl's cold and calm temperament, which was unique in the apocalypse.
After coming back to her senses, Cai Min immediately stepped forward and stretched out her hand, "Should I call you Boss Gu now?" It was obvious that Cai Min was joking on purpose. In fact, when the two were chatting privately, one called her "Xiao Wan" and the other called her "Sister Cai".
"Little Sister Cai, if you really want to call me like that, I will also call you Boss Cai."
After hearing this, Cai Min immediately smiled and said to her husband: "Look how eloquent she is. I can't argue with her."
"That's why their business is so good." Xu Xuesong was in a good mood and even joked with his wife.
After the greetings, I heard a series of honks from behind. I turned around and saw Liao Yunyun sitting in the driver's seat of a van and waving at me.
"Sister Cai, come with us to the van and you will direct the direction." Several people were only at the outermost entrance. In fact, there was another sentry booth after entering, and they needed to show their "accommodation permit" to enter the camp.
Like the base, the people manning the sentry booths here are all psychics or retired soldiers. After all, the sentry booths are very important and can be said to be the first line of defense for the entire camp. Generally, when something unexpected happens, the first line of defense must play a role in "transmitting information up and down" in a timely manner.
"At present, our base camp has a low proportion of young and middle-aged people, and there are relatively few psychics, so the team members at the sentry booth are all psychics of relatively low levels. However, they have rich combat experience, so several terrorist attacks by foreign forces have been stopped."
"Currently, the proportion of people with special abilities in the camp is less than 2% of the total population. There are no S-level people in the camp, only five high-level A-level people, and less than 50 B-level people. The proportion of C-level people is not high either. The rest are basically D-level like me, or F-level people who have never upgraded after awakening." Xu Xuesong, who was sitting in the last row, adjusted his glasses. There was a hint of helplessness in his tone when he mentioned this.
Gu Tongwan looked at Xu Xuesong's gentle appearance through the rearview mirror and could not associate him with the identity of a superpower at all. It was said that he worked in a company near the Wanderer Base Camp, but he also served as a technical consultant for a civilian superpower team, mainly responsible for strategic deployment.
And last time, Xu Xuesong took the initiative to suggest sitting in the last row. After all, the second row was full of girls, and he personally needed to avoid suspicion.
Two team members wearing similar armed cotton jackets immediately came forward from the sentry booth and gestured for the car to stop.
"This is the check-in certificate." Gu Tongwan had just taken over the steering wheel again. Cai Min sat in the passenger seat to lead the way. Half of his body was already leaning out of the window, holding the check-in certificate that he had just obtained in the morning.
"There are six people in total, right? Since you have already obtained the check-in permit, please come in. However, as a guarantor, you need to register your personal information card with me." The team member had his face covered, and white steam kept coming out of the mask as he spoke.
The entire review process took only five minutes, and two vans slowly drove into the camp.
The team member who was serving as the sentry box for inspection just now frowned slightly as he looked at Chen Yanxi's car. Thinking of the pair of dark and cold eyes he met the moment the window was rolled down, he felt as if he was nailed down. He instantly understood that this should be the "pressure" released by the psychic. The powerful supernatural powers of some high-level psychics would make people feel inexplicably oppressive.
"Is it really just a D-level mutant?" the team member murmured, but his eyes were always following the two cars closely, and the oppressive feeling did not disappear until the two cars were out of his sight.
The roads on both sides of the Wanderer Base Camp are much narrower than the base. Compared to the city-like construction of the base, the camp is more like a village. There are even some village buildings preserved nearby, which are the houses that survived the floods and earthquakes.
The road can accommodate about three cars passing side by side. There are low gray concrete houses on both sides, which should have been rebuilt after the end of the world.
"Currently, the camp is mainly composed of low-rise buildings, and the tallest one is no more than three stories high. The main reason is that we are worried that there will be a major earthquake in the future, and high-rise buildings are not as safe as low-rise buildings. Secondly, the camp does not have enough materials and manpower to build high-rise buildings."
As the host, Cai Min would give a detailed introduction to the current environment and situation wherever he passed.
"The administrative center of the camp is in the east, three or four kilometers away from my home. Oh, by the way, our camp is quite large, covering an area that is almost as large as a university town."
Jiangcheng University is basically known to all the local people in Jiangcheng. As a high-ranking government institution, Jiangcheng University can be said to be ranked among the best in the country. The university covers a large area. The entire university town and the nearby commercial areas have an active population of at least 50,000.
However, Gu Tongwan saw that there were many mountains and forests nearby, so this should also be counted within the area.
"My home is just ten minutes' drive ahead. It's not that nice, so please don't be disgusted by it." Cai Min is an optimistic person. When doing business, he may seem too shrewd for being so versatile, but after getting to know him for a long time, you will find that he is warm-hearted and generous.
"No, no, we're already very grateful that you can invite us here. This is my first time traveling far away." Liao Yunyun, who was already sitting in the back row, stuck out half of her head and said with a smile.
When the couple got on the car just now, Liao Yunyun, Xiaoli and others in the car had already introduced themselves to each other, so he remembered everyone's name at the moment.
"We are actually not too far from the base, it's just that the road conditions and weather are bad. If it's not snowing, we can drive there in just over an hour. It's a pity that you came in winter this time. If you came in summer, I could take you to the back mountain. There are quite a lot of mutant animals there, and if you're lucky, you can even hunt some wild game." Cai Min said with a smile.
"Ah? Mutated animals? Aren't they said that the forest is full of ferocious mutant beasts? Will it be dangerous if we go there?" Xiaoli asked in surprise.
Cai Min quickly smiled and shook his head to explain: "I forgot to mention that the forest behind our camp is very small, but there are some mutant animals, such as hares, pheasants, or wild mice. Large creatures will not run to this small forest. The supplies here are not abundant, and large mutant creatures will starve to death sooner or later because they cannot meet the needs of prey."
"Won't the animals on the mountain run down?"
Lan Cen turned his head to look out the window, and sure enough, he could vaguely see mountains covered with white snow in the distance. Occasionally, there was a little bit of residual green in the mountains, but there was not much of this green. After all, except for the mutated plants in the big forest in the north, most of the green plants in Jiangcheng were destroyed by the acid rain at the end of the world. Therefore, it was rare to see green plants either inside or outside the base. Even if there were any, they had to walk around them because they were not sure whether these plants had mutated. If they had mutated, they would most likely be aggressive.
"We have set up high-voltage power grids near our camp. Under normal circumstances, once the mutant animals touch the high-voltage power grids, they will not come down again." Xu Xuesong explained.
After passing the low bungalows in front, you can find that some three- or four-story buildings are gradually appearing nearby, and these houses can be seen to be of better quality than the houses in front, and some even have yards in front.
"Is this the commercial center of your base?" Gu Tongwan turned the steering wheel according to Cai Min's instructions and glanced at a light blue four-story building on the left. The building had a yard outside and a few jeeps were vaguely parked inside.
"That's where the battalion commander and several hunter guilds work, as well as some administrative offices. There are two commercial streets nearby. It's quite lively in the summer and there's a [night market], but now that the weather is cold, everyone is busy stockpiling food to keep warm."
"Then we'll come back to bother you in the summer." Xiaoli is simply a social expert. She naturally took over Cai Min's topic and started joking.
While everyone was chatting, they soon drove the car onto a field. They could see that this large field was at least hundreds of acres in size, and each ridge was covered with plastic film, which must be where crops were planted.
"My family's vegetable garden is in the back, about 10 acres, but the camp only allocated one acre to our family, and the rest of the crops are considered the camp's. The main reason is that my father was very good at farm work when he was in the countryside. He used to take care of dozens of acres of land at home. I also opened an orchard myself, so I have more experience than others, and the crops I grow are better than others, so I was able to strive to get this business."
Liao Yunyun looked at the large piece of land and sighed with envy: "Now those who have land are real landlords. With just one acre of land, at least the whole family will not go hungry, and they can also rely on the protection of the camp. Isn't this good?"
"It's okay. I won't starve to death." Cai Min's tone was relaxed, but he seemed satisfied with the current situation.
The car drove forward for about a hundred meters before seeing a gray wall in front of it. Cai Min said, "Just drive the car into the yard."
Cai Min’s courtyard was indeed very large, at least over 200 square meters, enough to accommodate four or five cars. The whole house was in a row style, and as Cai Min had said before, there were many rooms, and the entire courtyard was L-shaped.
Hearing the noise, Cai's father and mother came out of the room. They both looked to be in their sixties and had very simple looks.
"Come in quickly, it's cold outside, don't freeze." Cai's mother opened the door and urged Gu Tongwan and others who had just got off the car.
After a group of people entered the room, the originally spacious living room immediately became crowded and lively.
"Xiao Wan, welcome to my home with your friends. I hope you can have fun here in the next few days." Cai Min looked at everyone, and finally her eyes fell on Gu Tongwan. She couldn't help but say from the bottom of her heart.
