Apocalypse Rebirth: 3000 million won at the beginning

Chapter 2105 Punishment
Night falls.

The second outer city of Dazhangshu, not far from the research institute's residential building for researchers.

Several members of the Internal Security Brigade arrived at the family building and inquired about the room where Huang Guangbiao's family members were located.

Then I went up to inform them.

The camphor tree base has always treated talents well, especially outstanding talents. The base not only provides them with personal housing, but also helps arrange housing for their immediate family members.

squeak-

The door to the four-person room was pushed open by members of the inner guard.

There were two young men and women, and a woman who was about fifty years old.

The calm-faced member of the inner guard glanced at them and asked:

Are you Huang Guangbiao's family members?

The slightly older woman quickly nodded and said:
"Yes, I am his wife. What's wrong with my husband, Huang Guangbiao? He should be home by this time normally."

The guards said coldly:
"Huang Guangbiao was involved in the illegal disclosure of confidential information. After a decision by the management, he has been demoted to a level six staff member and dismissed from his research position. Effective immediately, he will be moved out of the second outer city!"

"As his family members, you also need to leave!"

"You have 15 minutes to pack your things. We will take you out of the second outer city in 15 minutes!"

His tone was icy, as if he were an emotionless robot.

The three people inside the room, on the other hand, were stunned and stood frozen in place, as if struck by lightning.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible. Old Huang would never do something so foolish. Is this a misunderstanding? Can I see Old Huang?"

The woman, her face filled with disbelief, stepped forward and grabbed the arm of one of the bodyguards, saying in a panic:
"Investigate again, Lao Huang couldn't possibly have done that!"

The bodyguards pulled her hand away, took a few steps back, slightly raised their guns, and said coldly:
"You have fourteen minutes. If you do not leave after fourteen minutes, we will enforce the rules."

"impossible!"

The woman took a few steps back and plopped down on the bed.

The two young people also panicked.

"Mom, what should we do now?"

"Yes, if we don't leave, they'll kick us out."

The woman's expression flickered, and she suddenly remembered that her husband's cousin was also in the military.

So she quickly got up and went to the members of the inner guard, trying to ingratiate herself:
"Brother, my husband's cousin, Huang Guangqi, is also in your military department. He works in the militia brigade. Could you please make an exception and let me go see him now?"

The guards glanced down at her. When they set off, another guard group also left, supposedly to notify Huang Guangqi's relatives.

As for Huang Guangbiao and Huang Guangqi, they were taken into custody this morning.

The two confessed everything in the interrogation room that afternoon.

Now that the matter has been settled, the penalty notice has been issued.

So the internal security team leader replied:

"Huang Guangqi is now in dire straits himself. He has also restricted the dissemination of classified information. He and Huang Guangbiao are still in custody."

"I advise you to pack your things quickly. If you delay any longer, you won't be able to get out!"

In order to complete the task as soon as possible, he made a subtle threat to them.

He knew the details of the punishment for Huang Guangbiao and the other person. These two people, as well as their immediate family members, would not be able to be registered for positions in the official system of Dazhangshu in the future.

Furthermore, all of them were labeled with a bad record in the points number card system.

It's highly unlikely that it will be upgraded in the future.

In other words, they will only be able to work as Level 6 personnel from now on.

He naturally didn't need to be polite to someone who had no future within the camphor tree's power structure.

Whatever is convenient for you.

thump!
Huang Guangbiao's wife was struck hard, and she collapsed to the ground, feeling dizzy.

"mom!"

The young man in the room quickly helped the woman up and called out to her repeatedly before she slowly woke up.

Her face was ashen, and her eyes were full of resentment.

"How could Old Huang do such a foolish thing! Sigh."

"Mom, why don't we go outside first? They look really scary." The young man glanced at the four guards standing at the door.

These members of the inner guard all had icy expressions and were extremely indifferent to them.

"Now that things have come to this, there's no other way. Feng'er, Long'er, let's pack our things."

After saying that, she sat on the ground and looked at the members of the inner guard, pleading desperately:

"What about Lao Huang? When will he be released?"

The internal security guard replied:
"I don't know about that, but he should still be alive, and he'll most likely be sent to the buffer city."

The woman breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

As long as I'm alive, everything else is negotiable.

The three of them didn't dare to waste any time, so they quickly packed their things and left.

A crowd of onlookers had unknowingly gathered at the entrance.

Among them were some neighbors who were acquainted with Huang Guangbiao's family.

"Sister Cai, what's wrong with you all?" a middle-aged woman at the door asked.

The woman's face turned ashen, and she didn't know how to answer for a moment.

On the contrary, the woman who had been standing at the door the whole time witnessed what had just happened.

sarcastically said:
"Old Huang from their family has violated the regulations. I heard he's suspected of disseminating classified documents. Tsk tsk. I never thought Old Huang would be this kind of person."

The middle-aged woman who had asked the question covered her mouth and exclaimed in surprise:
"Oh, it doesn't have to be that we have to kick you out."

"Shh, this isn't something we can discuss. The decisions made by the higher-ups have their reasons."

"Oh, how pitiful."

“From now on, they can only stay in the buffer city, and Lao Huang has been fired by the research institute and demoted to a level six personnel.”

"That's terrible."

Among the onlookers were some who were acquainted with Cai Su, and some even had a good relationship with her.

When faced with such a situation, none of these familiar neighbors dared to speak up, and some even mocked them.

This made Cai Ming realize how fickle people's hearts are; they really are all pragmatic people.

Escorted by members of the security detail, the three were surrounded by onlookers as they passed through the corridor and downstairs.

So humiliating.

Faced with the pointing and whispering of passersby, the three of them only dared to lower their heads and remained silent.

Within the powerful camphor tree community, those who violate regulations are always despised.

In the camphor tree community, anyone who is punished will be publicly criticized, and the reasons will be explained.

I will never punish someone rashly.

Whenever someone is punished, it must be because that person did something wrong.

Escorted by members of the inner guard, they arrived at the buffer city.

Furthermore, upon arriving in the buffer city, they were taken to the government affairs hall to change their number cards.

Demoted to Level 6 personnel.

After doing all this, the guards left.

Cai Su and the other two stood beneath the government building, looking at the light gray number cards in their hands and then at the bustling commercial district in the distance, feeling somewhat lost.

What should they do next?

Without Huang Guangbiao's stable points system and free housing, they will have to start from scratch.

"Mom, what should we do now?"

Cai Su took a deep breath and told herself that she must be strong.

He opened his eyes, let out a long sigh, and said:

"Let's go to the outer city exit and wait there, see if we can wait for your dad to come out."

"it is good."

As they walked towards the outer city gate, they bumped into Huang Guangqi's wife and son, who had been evicted from their Class A special housing in the buffer city. The outer city was mainly inhabited by Level 2 personnel, along with some researchers and their families.

Level 3 personnel are not qualified to stay in the outer city.

Therefore, Huang Guangqi and his family lived in the buffer city.

The housing in the buffer city is the same as that in the buffer city of the oil city.

There are three levels in total.

The highest grade is A, and the lowest grade is C.

There are two types of Grade A: Grade A Special is reserved for Grade 3 personnel, while Grades 4, 5, and 6 are not allowed to live there.

Another standard Class A category has different rental fees depending on the category.

For example, a standard Level A rental, similar to a Level 4 rental, will cost more than ten times the points compared to a Level 6 personnel rental.

However, the conditions of a standard Grade A apartment are still not as good as those of a specially provided Grade A apartment.

The residential area exclusively for Level 3 residents is separated and not connected to other residential areas.

outside the community.

Upon seeing Huang Guangqi's wife, Zhao Min, Cai Su quickly greeted them:
"Sister-in-law, you've been kicked out too?"

Zhao Min, still shaken, saw Cai Su grab her hand and cried out:
"Sister-in-law, what's going on? Those internal security guards just came in and drove us away!"

Cai Su asked:

"Don't you know exactly what Old Huang and the others did wrong?"

Zhao Min stammered, "I do know a little bit, but..."

"But I thought it was no big deal at the time, I didn't expect the punishment to be so severe."

"You!" Cai Su pointed at her, her heart bleeding, "You all!"

"What on earth is going on?"

Zhao Min then briefly recounted what Huang Guangqi had told her.

Cai Suzhi felt dizzy and clutched her chest, saying helplessly:

"You guys are really confused, and Old Huang is confused too!"

"How can such things be spread around like this!"

the other side.

First Outer City Prison

Song Zhihong, former director of the Natural Disaster Research Institute, Liu Jianwen, deputy minister of the military department, and Zhuang Guangchao, captain of the 38th Armed Forces Brigade, were all here.

"Captain, I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong, I can correct it, please give me a chance, okay?" Huang Guangqi's eyes lit up when he saw Zhuang Guangchao and he quickly stepped forward to beg for forgiveness.

Zhuang Guangchao was furious and kicked him away.

He was completely innocent in this disaster; it had nothing to do with him in the first place.

Today, I was suddenly scolded by Liu Jianwen, the deputy minister of the military department, and that's when I learned about the sea fog disaster and the mutation of zombies in the waters off Palau.

As the captain of a militia brigade, he was unaware of this news.

But he was implicated by Huang Guangqi.

At that moment, he had no desire to speak to Huang Guangqi.

Huang Guangbiao looked resigned, his head bowed, too ashamed to face Song Zhihong again.

He originally thought this matter wouldn't escalate to this extent, but during a drinking session with his cousin, he accidentally let it slip.

He never expected his cousin to tell others, and not just one person.

just
He looked at Song Zhihong with concern and said:

"Dean Song, it's all my fault, but my family did nothing wrong. It has nothing to do with them."

Song Zhihong's face was gloomy as he coldly said:
"Don't worry, we didn't do anything to them. They're all in the buffer city now, so you should get out of here!"

"Oh, by the way, have your family pack your luggage too. That's all for now, get going!"

Out of sight, out of mind; he doesn't want to see this person for even a minute now.

Upon hearing this, Huang Guangbiao immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as I'm alive, that's enough.

just
From now on, I'm afraid I'll be stuck here at the headquarters in Dazhangshu, with no chance of ever getting ahead again.

The two slunk away with the members of the internal security brigade.

After they left, Song Zhihong cursed, "Damn it!"

He felt wronged, but after all, the researchers were under his management.

Zhuang Guangchao of the Minwu Brigade was completely unaware of the news, so he was not punished, but only given a verbal reprimand.

And he actually managed to strip him of his position.

If he doesn't perform well in these three months, he might be demoted further.

Exit of the outer city gate.

Cai Su and Zhao Min waited for a long time before Huang Guangbiao and Huang Guangqi finally came out.

"That's great! I thought you wouldn't be able to get out!" Cai Su held her husband's arm tightly.

But the next second, he slapped Huang Guangbiao.

"Old Huang, how could you be so muddle-headed? How can you talk about such things like that?"

Huang Guangbiao felt extremely wronged and looked up at Huang Guangqi, "Cousin, I trusted you so much, how could you tell others like that, and even dragged me into this!"

Huang Guangqi sighed upon hearing this.

Yesterday he was a member of the militia brigade, respected wherever he went, but today, he was removed from his post and his rank was reduced to the lowest level, down to level six.

"Cursor, there's no point in saying all this. Let's think about what to do next."

Upon hearing this, Huang Guangbiao frowned and asked:

"What other plans could I have but to find a place to stay first?"

"No," Huang Guangqi shook his head and said.
"What I mean is, why don't we exchange all the points on our number cards for food and supplies and leave the Big Camphor Tree Base?"

Huang Guangbiao's eyes widened in shock:

"You really plan to leave the Big Camphor Tree Base? Let me tell you, even if a sea fog disaster breaks out and mutated zombies come, leaving the Big Camphor Tree may not be the best option for us."

Huang Guangqi continued to persuade him:

"If we stay in the big camphor tree, is there any way out? Will you be able to find a job? Are there any suitable jobs for you?"

Moreover, we will definitely be targeted after this incident.

"Being a scavenger might result in someone pocketing your points, and finding a job will be nearly impossible!"

"Why don't we listen to me? Let's redeem our points for real things tonight and leave the big camphor tree right now!"

"But where are we going?" Huang Guangbiao was somewhat reluctant to leave the headquarters base in Dazhangshu.

To be honest, the years he spent in the big camphor tree were the most comfortable he's ever been.

He didn't really want to go back to that kind of nomadic life.

Huang Guangqi pondered for a moment and said:

"Let's head north. The sea fog comes from the south. Didn't you say that the further north we go, the later the sea fog arrives?"

"Let me think about it some more," Huang Guangbiao said hesitantly.

"Now that things have come to this, what's there to consider? Just make a decision quickly."

Huang Guangbiao looked at his wife, Cai Su, who gritted her teeth and said, "This time, my cousin is right. There's no way out if we stay at the headquarters. We might as well go out."

"Alright then." Seeing that his wife and cousin were in agreement, Huang Guangbiao agreed as well.

They rushed to the commercial district, hoping to purchase supplies as soon as possible.

However, when purchasing supplies, it was discovered that each person only had ten points left on their points card.

Over the years, they have actually accumulated quite a few points.

Now I only have 10 points left.

"Damn it!!" Huang Guangqi couldn't help but curse as he looked at the numbers on the list.
