Chapter 72 The worst case scenario is death
"Crazy." Luli muttered, and put the account on the blacklist. She was not stupid. There was no way she would do such a completely altruistic thing.
After choosing to reply to a few private messages and comments, Luli washed his face and went downstairs.
There was still no one outside the base and it was very quiet. This is not like the Huakai base. There is an urban village nearby with residents.
The area around here is full of wild grass. Except for the tall walls, not a single building can be seen, and not a single person can be seen.
If it wants to have customers, it can only rely on the residents of the nut base, but it is strictly forbidden to go out today!
What a sin!
Luli went to the convenience store to get some snacks and returned to the RV. She held her chin up and watched the TV series in her mind while eating.
Just like that, at night, when night fell, Luli was about to close the stall, and put one hand on the table.
This hand is really unsightly, the whole hand is dusty, and there is yellow mud seeping between the nails and the lines.
As if he had been buried for three days and three nights and had to dig another hundred kilograms of soil, Luli was startled and took a step back.
He said sharply: "Who?"
A simple face slowly popped out, and then, a face with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks popped out next to it.
The two faces looked particularly... inconsistent and abrupt in the dimly lit place.
Lu Li breathed a sigh of relief. It was just a human being. She asked, "Is something wrong?" She was also a little excited.
After all, it’s been a day since I met a stranger for the first time, so you can imagine how I felt!
"Buy scratch-off tickets!" the simple customer said in a low voice. Luli didn't hear him clearly and asked again.
"What, you two got up to talk, aren't you tired from squatting?" Luli's voice was quite loud, otherwise it would not have been possible because of this binding system.
The two customers waved their hands quickly and looked in the direction of the Nut Base gate in a panic, feeling quite guilty.
They squatted on the ground and moved carefully against the car body, changing from facing away from the base to facing the base, feeling a little more secure.
Luli also followed them around and asked again, "Are you here for scratch-off games? Is it necessary to be so... cautious?"
In fact, I want to say that being a thief has a guilty conscience, as if he is out to steal people because he is afraid of being discovered.
The simple customer nodded repeatedly and said excitedly: "Yes, yes, scratch tickets, boss, please help us get one."
At the same time, he took out a few crystal cores very wisely and checked: "Are they one by one?"
"Yes." Luli took a few scratch-off books and let them choose as they pleased, then took two crystal cores and kept them.
When the two customers saw the scratch-off tickets, their eyes instantly lit up. They picked one up and started scratching with excitement.
Since they had to shave, squatting felt a little uncomfortable, so they lay down on the table and started scraping!
Seeing them immersed in scratch-off games and letting their guard down, Luli took the opportunity to ask: "Are you from the Nut Base?"
"That's right." The sharp-tongued customer said subconsciously.
"What happened at the base today? Why didn't anyone come out?" Luli asked in a persuasive way.
When I talked about this simple customer, I became very irritated and stopped scratching my ticket. I straightened up and began to curse.
"There was a rumor this morning that boss you were operating outside the Nut Base. We just wanted to come out, but we were locked in the base for a whole day!"
The veins on the back of his hand popped out in anger, and he felt like he was about to bend the little golden shovel.
Luli quickly reassured, "It's okay, it's okay. Why don't you come out? Are you allowed out at night?"
The sharp-tongued customer then scolded: "What? It's a small hole left by the predecessors. It took us a long time to dig it out! Look at our hands!"
As they said that, they both stretched out their hands, with the backs of their hands facing up, and every crack was filled with dust and loess...
It was just as Lu Li thought, after digging a hundred kilograms of soil... But he also felt a little sense of accomplishment. Someone actually did this for scratch-off tickets. Sure enough, the temptation of food was quite great.
Luli poured a glass of water for each of them, and they were moved to tears.
But he didn’t dare to pick up the water glass with his hands that had been digging dirt all afternoon. He wanted to wipe his hands on his clothes. When he lowered his head, he saw that his clothes were even dirtier...
Luli turned around and took two straws, "Drink, you're welcome."
The two of them were even more moved. Although the first note was all thank you for your patronage, it did not affect their enthusiasm at all.
"Boss, just wait, the troops will be here soon," said the sharp-tongued customer.
Just as Luli was about to ask something, she heard someone calling boss behind her and turned around to take a look.
Good guy, that side is crowded with people, about twenty or thirty people, all running out of the small hole?
"Come on, come on." Luli walked over with a smile on his face.
Zhan Ting and Xiao Di also got busy. The convenience store over there was originally going to be closed, but they didn't expect so many customers to suddenly appear, so they turned on the lights again.
As soon as they saw Lu Li, they greeted him as if they were seeing a relative.
"Hello, Boss Lu!"
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Luli had a smile on her face, the dimples on her lips were very deep, and she tried her best to respond.
Listening to them complaining about this nut base, the resentment on their faces didn't seem fake.
While greeting them and listening, Luli roughly understood what happened.
Just at 8:40 this morning, the base suddenly issued a notice that the door was closed and everyone was strictly prohibited from going out.
Residents who wanted to go out to kill zombies, do tasks, and scratch tickets were immediately locked up in the base.
Of course such an outcome would cause a riot. Why wouldn't people be allowed to leave the base? Who would be responsible if the mission exceeded the time limit?
If you can’t kill the zombies, you can’t get the crystal core, and if you can’t afford food, who’s responsible? No one responded.
Only the closed and heavy doors silently responded to the residents.
No matter how angry they are, there is nothing they can do. The base commander is the biggest in the base, and everyone must listen to him.
The patrolling guards were even strengthened, guarding the four gates in the southeast, northwest and not allowing anyone to be released.
It wasn't until nightfall that the patrol relaxed a little, and the small holes dug all afternoon were completed.
No, after reading scratch music for a day, they hurried over as soon as they left the base.
Lu Li was speechless for a long time after listening. Could this be the result of the cooperation between Liu Hongtao and Nut Base?
Cut off the source of customers at the very root and prevent her from making money. Good guy, it’s so useful...
But Luli looked at the customers surrounding the RV on the three floors inside and outside, and there were customers running in twos and threes from a distance.
The base worked hard for a day to maintain martial law, but collapsed at night.
They were also extremely careful, trying to keep their movements and volume as gentle as possible so as not to be detected by the searchlights from the base a hundred meters away.
It was past midnight and Luli yawned for the fifth time, but all the customers were still shaving enthusiastically.
She didn't want to spoil the fun. After all, she had been holding back the whole day and finally found an opportunity to have fun.
Luli couldn't help but think of Liu Hongtao. If he knew that the plan failed, how angry would he be?
Just thinking about it, Lu Li couldn't help but laugh out loud, it was so cool, so cool! Sober up.
Lu Li went to ask the simple customer and the sharp-tongued customer at the beginning, "What will happen if we are discovered?"
They didn't care, "Oh, you may die."
