Armored train in the apocalypse

Chapter 239 White Ticket
"214, 215..."

The meerkat pressed itself vertically against the wall, its feet dangling in the air. It then used only its hands to hold onto the wall while trying to lift its legs backward as if it were upside down. But no matter how much it struggled, its body wouldn't fall off the vertical wall.

As the train was about to dock, the meerkat glanced at the gloomy sky outside the window, then jumped down from the wall.

Because of mutations that lean towards feline evolution, their bodies also possess some feline characteristics.

But the meerkat wasn't as exaggerated as Qi Jianguo's.

Her most striking feature is her eyes, which possess dynamic vision and low-light vision...

Those eyes alone gave her a huge advantage.

In addition, her nails became harder and had a certain degree of retraction.
But unlike Wolverine, it's only about two centimeters long, sharp and not easily worn down, and grows extremely fast.

The palms and skin also become very soft, allowing them to climb particularly smooth walls like a gecko.

These effects, which greatly enhance combat power, are provided by just one "Beast Transformation" skill.

The meerkat currently has two skills: level 2 "Combat Factor" and level 1 "Beast Transformation".

But with just these two passive skills, he can fight on equal terms with many elite soldiers who are not even at the first tier.

If we remove the weapon factor, her win rate would be 50%.

In the wild, the survival rate can even reach 70%.

Therefore, in the armed forces, the mongoose's status was second only to those officers.

However, the meerkat has been putting in extra training because her goal has never been the other reserve players, but He Jie!

I took off my sweat-soaked vest, quickly took a shower, put on my gear, and only three minutes had passed since I finished everything.

After all, He Jie took special care of her.

Those bastards don't care how much longer it takes women to groom themselves compared to men. If a task takes ten seconds for a male soldier, then it takes ten seconds for a female soldier. A meerkat has to take nine seconds to avoid being scolded, and eight seconds to avoid being ridiculed.

Their equipment mainly consisted of bulletproof vests and tactical boots, and their only offensive weapon was a pistol.

Main combat firearms, including heavy weapons, are all kept in the armory and will only be issued when a combat mission is carried out.

As for the pistol, it's somewhat of a ceremonial weapon for the current train.

They stopped collecting them a long time ago.

After tying her hair into a ponytail in front of the mirror, the mongoose went out and entered the Armed Forces Hall.

More than two thousand survivors were assigned to their armed regiments.

Everyone will be responsible for managing a portion of the work during this period; things will be fine once we get off the ground.

Just then, the hatch in front of them opened, and a short, stocky man walked out, wearing the combat team's uniform and wearing a satisfied smile.

"You did a good job. When I have some free time next time, you can do some more twisting."

The woman following behind him looked embarrassed, pursed her lips, and pushed the man away.

The meerkat was taken aback. There were six women living here, all survivors of the Iron Mountain Refuge. When did a man join them?
The meerkat frowned as it smelled the faint fishy odor emanating from the two.

"what are you doing?"

Upon hearing the meerkat's cold questioning voice, the two simultaneously raised their heads.

When the man saw the meerkat, the lewd smile on his face faded a bit, and he then gave the meerkat a very subtle look from head to toe.

Without saying hello, he went straight to his room.

The woman was left standing there, pale-faced, her eyes filled with fear, unsure how to explain.

Seeing her like this, the meerkat instantly understood what was going on.

This kind of thing happens a lot on the bus.

If it were any other colleague, the meerkat would at most mutter a curse under its breath and turn away.

But these were survivors from the Iron Mountain Shelter under her care, and the expressions on their faces seemed rather suspicious.

Meerkats are the type that can't tolerate any flaws.

Without even thinking, she gave a soft shout to the departing man.

"stop!"

The latter paused, turned around, and pointed at his own nose in surprise, saying, "Are you talking to me?"

The meerkat's iconic beastly eyes gradually became thinner.

"Are you from the combat team?"

The man chuckled nonchalantly, "Is it any of your business?"

The train had come to a stop, and the survivors came out. Soldiers came to the armored hall to maintain order.

The argument between the two immediately attracted the attention of others.

The soldiers all came closer when they saw it was a meerkat.

"Sister Cat, what's wrong?"

Ignoring his colleague's greeting, the meerkat continued, "I'm asking what you're doing."

At this point, more and more people gathered.

The man, whose energy was locked on him, turned his neck uncomfortably. Seeing his fellow combat team members walking this way in the distance, he felt a little relieved and whispered a reprimand, "Don't cause trouble."

The meerkat stepped forward, its beastly eyes fixed on him. "I asked you what you're doing?"

The man looked rather unpleasant as he was questioned in front of so many people.

It might be difficult to rank the four groups on the train, but one thing is universally acknowledged: the armed forces are definitely at the bottom.

It's not about the treatment on the train, but rather that I'm too inexperienced on the train.

Apart from senior officers, ordinary reservists are just survivors who came to the military halfway through their careers and have not received any serious military training.

Their combat team consisted entirely of seasoned veterans.

They also received the most professional military training in the Steel Council and participated in battles large and small since the apocalypse.

Calling them elite soldiers is not an exaggeration at all.

When the armed forces were training, the combat teams were even pulled in to serve as instructors.

Although the man had never directly encountered a meerkat, he was still considered her half-class monitor.

Now she's actually scolding me!

The refugees in those shelters are one thing, but they're like expendable drudges. With the train conductor's temper, they'll probably be dead by the time the project is finished.

But the gazes of the soldiers in the armed forces made him feel very embarrassed.

The man opened his mouth and cursed, "Who the hell do you think you are? Mind your own business, why should I explain myself to you?"

Everyone fell silent, and the soldiers around them began to look at them with hostility.

Someone ran quickly outside.

Seeing this, his colleagues in the combat team quickly advised, "Old Wu has a bit of a temper, but what you said is also a bit wrong. Why bother so much about things that are consensual? Give me some face, and you two should each take a step back, otherwise things will be difficult when the flight attendant arrives."

The woman sensed something was wrong and said to the meerkat with a worried expression, "You've misunderstood, it's just...we're nothing..."

The meerkat turned to look at her, its eerie, beastly eyes causing her to take a step back in fear.

The meerkat said calmly, "You can go back and stay here for now. I'll handle things here."

Then, looking directly at the furious man in front of him, he said, "This is my mission; you've overstepped your bounds."

She didn't say anything about men or women.

Instead, it directly points out the key points.

This survivor is her mission target, so whatever happens, she has the right to intervene.

This is the responsibility the train has given her, and it is also her authority.

When this sentence is said.

It was no longer a matter between men and women, but a struggle for power!

The combat team members who wanted to mediate the fight were stunned and looked at each other, unsure of what to say.

Although the meerkat was using this as an opportunity to make a point, they didn't dare to accept it; in other words, they were unwilling to take the blame for Lao Wu.

Armed trains are not charities; failure to complete a mission can have serious consequences.

It would be best to handle it according to the rules.

The worst-case scenario is that this matter might alarm the train conductor. No matter how trivial the matter is, if it gets to the conductor, it becomes a big problem.

Upon hearing this, the man was instantly enraged.

His aura as a "defender" was unleashed without reservation, and he faced the meerkat with a livid expression.

"So this matter can't be resolved peacefully today?"

"The road is completely blocked, you son of a bitch!"

A rough, unrestrained curse rang out, making everyone's ears ring. They vaguely recognized the voice but hadn't yet figured out who it was.

Then a savage figure, like a bear, was seen kicking into the crowd.

Old Wu's body was sent flying backward by the landmine. His muscular physique was of no use at all, just for show.

"Bang bang bang!"

The soldiers who were watching were in big trouble; they were knocked away like bowling balls.

But after seeing the man standing in the very center, the soldiers became as quiet as quails, and even Old Wu, whose face had turned pale with pain, didn't dare to utter a sound.

Instead, they scrambled to their feet and stood up.

"Snapped!"

All the armed soldiers, including combat team soldiers, who were standing still, stood at attention and saluted the man standing in the middle.

It wasn't a standard military salute; instead, the right fist was used to tap the left shoulder.

Suddenly, a series of rapid and heavy footsteps came from afar.

The two chief flight attendants of the combat team, Lao San and Lao Er, along with officers Shan Yang and Qu Hang, rushed over.

They were carrying short rubber sticks in their hands.

"Don't you all have anything to do? Get out of the way!"

The soldiers quickly made way.

When the third brother and the others saw He Jie standing in the middle with heavy dark circles under his eyes, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

The men were stunned when they heard the soldier's report.

If the two largest violent factions on the train were to have internal strife, the consequences would be something that even Lao San and his companions dared not imagine.

Fortunately, He Jie got on the bus ahead of time.

His prestige far exceeds that of a nominal flight attendant; he can solve problems simply by standing there.

"Captain He!"

"Boss!"

Hearing the voice, He Jie glanced at them and sneered, "It's such a small place, why did it take you so long to get here? Haven't you been training for days and your legs are all weak, huh?"

The third brother shook his head vigorously, then looked around and asked cautiously, "Is nothing wrong?"

He Jie's eyes widened. "You don't know?"

"I didn't have time to ask."

The third brother said awkwardly.

He Jie's gaze fell on Qu Hang behind him. "I was in a hurry to get on the bus, but I saw a bunch of bastards blocking the road and making a ruckus, so I kicked one of them. I'm going home first. You guys finish what you've done and disperse as soon as possible."

There's still some time; before the train conductor looks for him, he can go see his wife and kids first.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that he was leaving.

"Wait a moment."

Just then, the meerkat suddenly called out.

He Jie glared at the meerkat, cracking his knuckles. "I said I'm going home first, you guys can leave now, is there a problem?"

The meerkat looked at the fierce-looking He Jie. Although it didn't know why he was in such a hurry, it still decided to resolve the matter.

Even if He Jie targets them afterward.

He raised his chin firmly and said, "The matter is not yet resolved, and my mission is not yet complete..."

Just then, the voice of the command tower at the front of the train suddenly came over the loudspeaker.

"Colonel He Jie heard that the dining car has been invited and the train conductor wants to see you."

"Please answer if you hear me..."

The meerkat paused for a moment, then noticed that He Jie's face seemed even darker.

He Jie's eye twitched. "Received!"

Well, there's no going back.

Looking down at the stubborn meerkat in front of him, he said, "Go tell the train conductor."

……

ten minutes later.

Mongoose, Old Wu, the woman, and a group of officers including He Jie stood in front of Su Huan.

The woman was bewildered, Old Wu was terrified, and the meerkat looked resolute, as if ready to die for his cause.

Seeing the expressions on the three people's faces, Su Huan found it amusing.

He has a lot of things to deal with, but he doesn't get to solve cases like this very often.

Those who can sit in the dining car are all management; even the most clueless third brother knows not to cause trouble for the train conductor.

However, the people below are different.

More than a thousand people live in a closed environment, and there are frictions, big or small, almost every day, but none of them reach Su Huan's attention, and even few reach He Jie's level.

However, today's situation is unusual, as the two violent departments have actually clashed.

In addition, He Jie was in a bad mood, so he brought him directly to Su Huan.

The matter is not complicated.

Lao Wu is a second-level crew member in the combat team. He is single and not exactly an honest person. He is considered a major taxpayer on the train.

Seeing that a number of new people had finally arrived on the bus, especially a lot of young girls, I felt a strong urge to join them.

Before becoming an evolved being, he still had some hope, but now that everyone is an evolved being, the success rate is not high.

In addition, he was short and not good-looking, so they didn't manage to hook up.

He didn't dare to use force. If anyone on the train dared to use their power to bully others, the matter wouldn't even reach the train conductor; the head of each crew could handle it.

Old Wu could only resort to crooked tricks.

After going around in circles, they finally found this woman and used her status to promise her many conditions before they succeeded.

He promised the first condition that he would give the woman a formal identity, but given his position on the train, that was utter nonsense.

It's called a promise, but in reality it's just getting something for nothing.

I got two days of freebies and, by sheer coincidence, bumped into a meerkat.

That's why this happened today.

After hearing the details, Su Huan smiled slightly. "I love solving cases. Who wants to go first?"

Old Wu gritted his teeth and said, "Train conductor, I followed the rules on the train, and I don't have a wife. I'm unmarried, so I'm not breaking any taboos, am I?"

"But you lied to me!"

The woman who had been standing by and listened to the whole thing said angrily, her eyes red.

Su Huan nodded, "Although deception is immoral, it doesn't break the rules. As for you..."

He turned to look at the woman who looked like she had been deceived by a scumbag, and chuckled as he uttered two words.

"Deserved it."

The woman was momentarily speechless, but dared not refute.

"Also, you can go out now. Someone will assign you a task once you go up."

The person next to him, Hu Shuo, gestured for him to enter.

The woman looked around in astonishment, but no one looked at her, not even a pitying glance.

She was clearly the one who suffered a loss, but why did it seem like nothing had anything to do with her?
