Chapter 115 Protracted War
"Can the meme on the hunter be copied?" Sun Hang asked.
"Why are you asking me?" Yang Lian rolled her eyes at him and said angrily, "I'm not even qualified to enter the research institute in Tianfu City. Do you think I can answer such a question? You should ask the people at Tianshu Tower."
Just when Sun Hang was about to ask something, his cell phone suddenly rang.
For ordinary people, the communication network in Tianfu City has not been restored yet, but Sun Hang knows that as early as the second day after the eternal night, the various signal base stations have been repaired to a certain extent, but those originally used The base stations used to maintain civilian communication networks are now all used by the military.
The caller was from Yang Qi. Under Yang Lian's gaze, Sun Hang pressed the answer button.
"Hello? What's going on?"
"Where are you now?"
"I'm squatting in a pit, shitting." Sun Hang made a "shh" gesture to Yang Lian, "I just ate too much, and I'm a little upset."
"I know you don't want to participate in the awarding ceremony, so I have already declined for you." Sun Hang could hear Yang Qi's obvious sigh on the other end of the phone, "I just have something to inform you. We have to fly to Chunming tomorrow. City, go and participate in the semi-annual 'Hunter Promotion Trial'...Originally, only regular hunters who have been employed for more than three years are eligible to participate in this trial, but in view of your performance in this operation, they decided The trial qualification is open to you.”
"Trial? What is it for? Are there any benefits?" Sun Hang asked bluntly.
"Those who pass the trial can become federally certified 'level hunters'. Based on their performance in the trial, they are divided into levels one to five, with level one being the highest and level five being the lowest... But even the lowest level five hunter, The treatment and permissions are also much higher than those of ordinary registered hunters.”
"So hunters still have such a complicated hierarchy?"
The corridor was very quiet, so Yang Lian next to Sun Hang could hear Yang Qi's words clearly. She whispered: "The difference between these two types of hunters is equivalent to the difference between the accounting qualification certificate and the certified public accountant certificate." .”
"Tsk, that's really a big difference." Even a layman like Sun Hang knows a thing or two about the value of a certified public accountant.
"Eh? Why do I seem to hear my sister's voice? Are you really in the toilet?" Yang Qi suddenly asked.
Sun Hang quickly covered Yang Lian's mouth and said, "You must have heard wrong, I am really in the toilet."
"Impossible..." Yang Qi's tone was full of doubt, "Are you with my sister now?"
"No." Sun Hang vetoed, "Maybe she was also going to the toilet and happened to be on the phone."
"Are you going to the men's room or the women's room?"
"Ahem... maybe it's because the wall between the men's and women's toilets is thin and the sound insulation is poor." Sun Hang argued, "Well, if nothing happens, I'll hang up and say goodbye."
After saying this, Sun Hang hung up the phone at lightning speed.
"Why are you so afraid of my sister? Do you know that I'm with you?" Yang Lian was a little dissatisfied as she wiped the lip gloss that Sun Hang had accidentally smeared on the corner of her mouth with her hand, and asked doubtfully.
"I'm afraid she will run out and take me back." Sun Hang said, "I have already enjoyed the delicious food. If I don't leave, the next project will be no different from going to jail." "That's right." He has always hated bureaucracy and Formalist Yang Lian nodded in agreement, "Then where do you plan to go now? Go home?"
"I want to go back, but the soldiers won't let me go." Sun Hang pointed at the soldiers standing guard, "By the way, aren't you in charge of this layer of security? Can you tell them and let me leave?"
"If you want to leave, no one can stop you, right?" Yang Lian pointed to the fire escape aside, "The stairs are over here, and for the elevator, just walk along the corridor to the end - please do it yourself. ”
"Thank you." Sun Hang took advantage of Yang Lian's chance to get out of the way, patted her shoulder gently, then directly opened the window in front of him and jumped out.
Compared with stairs and elevators, airborne landing is faster.
"This guy... can't he walk well?" Yang Lian couldn't help complaining, but the next second, she seemed to have thought about something and reached out to touch her ears.
Damn it, that guy forgot to give his headphones back!
……
With the help of mycelium and Ji 2796, Sun Hang landed lightly in the parking lot downstairs of the hotel. He turned around and looked at the hotel behind him, and saw only the banquet hall on the highest floor and the first floor. Except for the lights in the central kitchen, the entire building was almost dark.
Not only the Splendid Hotel, but also other surrounding buildings had no lights on - this was supposed to be a bustling business district with bright lights and serious light pollution, but now it looked like a silent concrete forest.
Sun Hang is not sure whether he likes the lively scene of the past more, or the silent atmosphere now... No, to be precise, it should be the silence.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
The eternal night has lasted for nearly a week, and the average temperature in Shuzhou has dropped below zero degrees Celsius. The official call for people to save electricity is not because power plants and transmission facilities have been damaged, but because these energy sources need to be stored in advance. Used for central heating projects under construction.
Shuzhou belongs to the south, and every household is equipped with air conditioners, but almost no heaters are installed. As we all know, in terms of heating, air conditioners are outperformed by traditional heaters in terms of efficiency and cost performance.
Assuming that people in Shuzhou can still access the Internet, then major e-commerce platforms will definitely receive a large number of orders for heating equipment from the Shuzhou area.
Only those who have actually experienced freezing understand how important this thing is in a freezing environment.
A thin layer of white frost has already condensed on the ground in the parking lot. A week ago, people just took out their short-sleeved shirts to prepare for the arrival of early summer. In the past few days, they had to take out their long johns that had just been stuffed under the cabinet. Padded jackets and down jackets.
Naturally, the federation cannot install floor heating and radiators on every household. The measure they are taking now is to build a heating ring around residential areas that can generate a lot of heat radiation, and then use the city's own heat island effect. , try to raise the temperature in the urban area to a level that people can barely accept.
As for those remote towns and people living in the countryside, they can only hope for their own good.
However, the Federation also anticipates that a large number of refugees will flow into the city due to hunger and cold. In the west and south of Tianfu City, several large-scale temporary camps have begun to be built, along with those affected citizens who lost their homes in the Longyan Barrier incident. They will also be placed in these camps.
This will be a protracted war. People's main "enemies" are not monsters, but the extreme environments that appear under the influence of eternal night.
Low temperature, epidemics, food and energy shortages... there are a lot of problems that Sun Hang can think of alone, and in those places that he didn't think of, there will be more problems, not less.
