Chapter 27 Breakfast
"Let's get some food first..." Sun Hang thought to himself.
As for the search and rescue operation and the missing people, he was not in a hurry anyway - Sun Hang had no good impression of those guys at all, and even disliked them... What did their life and death have to do with him?
After all, when those guys issued orders, they never took the lives of temporary investigators seriously... Now that something happens to someone at the same level as yourself, you know it's urgent?
"There's no point in being anxious." Sun Hang muttered in a low voice, stood up, parked the off-road vehicle in an open-air parking space, put his hands in his pockets, and walked slowly towards the business district.
……
Former Chengnan Cemetery, inside the abnormal area.
The pointer on the dial has approached five o'clock, but there is no sign of dawn here. The deep night, against the backdrop of the blood moon, is like a piece of thick crimson velvet, covering the entire sky tightly. .
A temporary operational outpost was set up. Several white tents with red cross signs could be heard from time to time. The wails of the wounded could be heard from time to time. On a light truck in the corner of the camp, there were a row of people covered with white cloth lying on a light truck. Living corpse.
Yang Qi sat on a folding chair, staring at the tablet in her hand, frowning - at the cost of more than twenty lives, the scope of the abnormal area was finally discovered. Except for the Chengnan Cemetery, the northwest direction The barren mountains, the stream area on the south side, and an abandoned village on the east side have all been "replaced" to what they looked like sixty-five years ago.
"Tsk...the scope of influence is much larger than imagined..."
Yang Qi let out a long breath, and at this moment, the mobile phone in her pocket suddenly rang.
"Hello? Tianfu City Institute of Creatures, Yang Qi." She picked up the phone and answered the call.
"How is the rescue operation going?" On the other end of the receiver was a majestic middle-aged male voice. Yang Qi recognized this voice - the caller was the second-in-command of the Tianfu City Management Committee. The power within the scope of Tianfu City can be described as "one person is less than ten thousand people".
"The scope of the abnormal area has been identified, but there are many casualties. We are currently resting in the camp and waiting for the second round of survey after dawn." Yang Qi reported to Fang Hui.
"What's the specific progress? Are there any clues about the missing people?"
"For the time being... we don't have any clues yet." Yang Qi replied.
"No clues?" The other party's tone was obviously a little dissatisfied, "Isn't there a hunter who resonates with the strange thing?"
"The power of the blood moon is too strong, and the 'Night Fury' has obvious signs of losing control. I have asked all the monster hunters to temporarily withdraw from the operation and wait until the blood moon disappears before returning to the operation area." Yang Qi said.
"But as far as I know, the hunter who resonated was not the Night Fury... Did he also evacuate?"
"Although he has no mutations, he is an infected person after all. To be on the safe side..."
"Researcher Yang, please clarify one thing. We are racing against time now, and it is impossible to adopt the most conservative plan for everything. Since there is no obvious abnormality in this hunter, let him return to the operation area immediately!" "I refuse!" Yang Qi said immediately, "You are not at the scene and do not know the situation at the scene. This The power of the blood moon is stronger than any blood moon observed in the past thirty years! We can't take that risk... If we lose that hunter, I'm afraid even the last clue will be broken! I am willing to take full responsibility for the consequences of my decision!”
"Do you think you can shoulder this responsibility? You should have seen the list of missing persons, right?" The voice on the phone had become slightly sullen.
"I have seen it." Yang Qi replied in a neither humble nor condescending manner, "But since I am the on-site commander of this rescue operation, I have the right to make arrangements for the personnel involved in the operation, unless you directly remove me from my position now... But according to the For normal procedures, you need at least half of the people in the management committee to agree to this decision before it will take effect.”
"Very good... I won't remove you from your post." The other party said slowly, "But I hope that after forty-eight hours... no, it should be thirty-one hours, you can let me see a satisfactory result. .”
The other party hung up the phone... Until the end, the other party didn't say what punishment awaited Yang Qi if she failed to complete the task, but the threat between the lines was self-evident.
……
Tianfu City, urban area, an unknown street.
Sun Hang originally planned to go to the commercial street to have a meal at the Golden Arches, but he wandered into a residential area because he didn't know the road.
The buildings here are all old houses left over from the last century, and the roads are paved with bluestone slabs that have been polished extremely smooth by the years. The thin morning mist filled the streets, which actually gave Sun Hang a feeling of being in a paradise. the illusion.
The air is very humid, partly because of the morning fog, and partly because of the water vapor coming out of the large steamers placed on the street. In a city that is just waking up, the first to open the door must be all kinds of people. Various shops selling breakfast.
Before it gets completely bright, the owners of the breakfast shop have already placed tables and stools outside the shop door, lit a fire, and set up a pot.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Dandan noodles, tofu puddings, hot and sour noodles, brown sugar glutinous rice cakes... Sun Hang glanced over and saw that this street was full of Tianfu City's specialty snacks. Some early-rising men were already sitting on chairs along the street with crutches and birdcages. Okay, waiting for the breakfast I ordered to be served.
Sun Hang randomly chose a relatively clean-looking table and sat down. He glanced at the menu hanging at the door of the store and said to the boss who was busy inside: "Have a bowl of Chao Shou, uh, not spicy."
"A bowl of Chaoshou? How many taels do you want?" The shopkeeper raised his head and asked, then continued to work with his head down.
"Two?... Then give me ten." Sun Hang glanced at the hand on the chopping board that had not yet been cooked. The hand was much larger than the chaotic size in his memory. Eating ten should be enough. ...even if you are not full, you can still go to other places to buy something to fill your stomach.
"Okay, one or two halves, don't be too spicy!"
"Hey, young man, you won't eat it just by looking at it." An old man with white hair and beard next to him shook his head with regret after hearing Sun Hang say he didn't want spicy food, "You don't understand, that hot Bring it up with your hands and pour a spoonful of red oil on it... Tsk, it tastes great!”
Just when Sun Hang was about to find a reason to deal with this nosy old man, a smell unique to "food" suddenly drifted into his nose.
