Freeze the entire population, activate my Superman system?
Chapter 19 Artificial Lakes Possess Huge Risks
Whispers arose in the garden.
Some residents sighed and said, "This child has had a tough time," while some women of marriageable age lowered their heads, afraid of being called out.
Whether Lin Yue will come back alive after this dive is still uncertain.
If he doesn't come back, it will be a burden to have a two-year-old child.
In the apocalypse, everyone knows what that means.
"I'll lead it."
Just then, a gentle voice came from the crowd.
She was a simple, middle-aged woman who walked out of the crowd. Her floral cotton-padded jacket was faded from washing, and her hair was neatly clipped back with black clips.
She nodded naturally to Shen Yuan, then turned to look at Lin Yue.
"Xiao Lin, my name is Chen Ximei, you can call me Aunt Chen. How old is your sister?"
"Two years and three months old."
"Do you still have any baby formula?"
Lin Yue looked somewhat ashamed.
"Aunt Chen, there are only a little over three cans left."
Chen Ximei nodded, seemingly pondering something, but still spoke frankly.
"I am a tenant and I have activated the lordship, but I have not purchased any supplies."
"According to the management office's previous assignment, they put three or four strangers in my work group."
She paused for a moment, as if considering how to say it appropriately.
"It's not that people are just eating for free and not working, but we can see that the food supply is dwindling."
I won't say anything superficial. Xiaolin is a young man; he can take care of himself. All I need to do is help him take care of the child.
She just wanted to make a deal with the management office.
Relocate the other civilians living near her residence.
They only accepted Lin Yue and his sister.
This significantly reduced her living expenses.
Then, Aunt Chen looked at Lin Yue and said, "I worked as a nanny for eight years and took care of more than a dozen children, from one month old to three years old."
If you trust me, leave the child with me.
Shen Yuan pondered for a moment, then agreed to the plan and asked, "Lin Yue, are you willing?"
Lin Yue may pay with his life on this trip.
The management office must resolve his concerns.
"I can do it." Lin Yue's lips trembled slightly. "As long as my sister can grow up healthy, I'll do anything."
"Then it's settled. The management office will handle the notarization."
Shen Yuan addressed everyone,
"Chen Sao taking care of Lin Yue's sister can also be considered a contribution to the community."
The management office allocated some of the emergency supplies to her.
He paused for a moment, then made the decision directly.
"This month, I'll buy two bags of rice, a can of oil, a box of instant noodles, and a cotton quilt."
Regarding the firewood, the defense team will help her saw some when they patrol.
Guo Yueshan once said that Shen Yuan could make decisions directly on matters that were not of critical importance.
Lin Yue also breathed a sigh of relief and bowed to Shen Yuan.
"Thank you, Assistant Shen. I'll hand my sister and her belongings over to Aunt Chen first."
I will go down to the lake on time at noon.
After saying that, Lin Yue hurriedly pulled Chen Ximei away, wanting to settle his sister first.
Shen Yuan watched them leave, then adopted a serious expression and scanned everyone present.
"Next, the second item on the agenda," his voice turned somber, "the distribution of the Night Demon larvae's corpses."
The atmosphere in the central garden changed instantly.
Fourteen Night Demon larvae represent fourteen perfect white crystals.
The news that Liu Wei had exchanged one white crystal for three hundred achievement points had already spread throughout the entire neighborhood.
What does 300 achievement points mean? A heating furnace only costs 200, and an arrow tower only costs 200.
A single white crystal is a life-saving structure.
Now, there are a total of fourteen.
However, Shen Yuan only issued a notice on this matter, without giving anyone a chance to speak.
"Everyone saw what happened last night."
Manager Ling killed fourteen Night Demon larvae and single-handedly forced back the Night Demon mother; this is an indisputable fact.
However, everyone has made contributions, more or less.
For example, Zhao Tiejun shot the mother's eye, buying Ling Shuang time to evolve.
Although Liu Wei's two arrow towers were destroyed, they did manage to hold back the first wave of attacks from the Night Demon larvae.
Shen Yuan continued, "Therefore, the management office's allocation plan is as follows:"
Ling Shuang took ten Night Demon corpses; the management office kept two for public use, and Zhao Tiejun and Liu Yu each took one.
His gaze swept across the crowd before finally settling on Ling Shuang.
Shen Yuan had reported this plan to Guo Yueshan, and his only concern was that Ling Shuang might raise objections.
Guo Yueshan said that if Ling Shuang was really not satisfied, he would also give her the two Night Demon larvae corpses from the management office.
However, Ling Shuang did not show any abnormality and obeyed the assignment.
If the administration is incompetent, he wouldn't mind becoming a military dictator.
But now, the cooperation between Guo Yueshan and Shen Yuan in governance can clearly make this group better.
As for the Perfect White Crystal, he noticed yesterday when he tried to fuse it with his left leg that the effect was far less than before.
The evolution of the left leg is not even 1/5 complete.
Questioning the management office in such a public setting
This is a serious blow to authority.
It's not worth it.
Shen Yuan paused for a moment, his gaze falling on Liu Yu at the edge of the crowd.
"Liu Yu, you can have a Night Demon corpse, but there is one condition: the white crystals must be used to exchange for arrow towers, and the deployment locations will be planned uniformly by the management office."
If you agree, you can take it now.
"I disagree. The body should be returned to the management office. The plan needs to be discussed again."
All eyes were on Liu Yu.
Liu Yu remained silent for a few seconds.
"Okay." He only said one word.
There was no argument.
He stepped out of the crowd, took the receipt from Shen Yuan, turned around and retreated to Yang Xiuming's side, keeping his head down the whole time.
Yang Xiuming pushed up his glasses, a faint smile playing on his lips, and gently patted Liu Yu's shoulder.
"If there are no objections, the plan is settled."
Shen Yuan closed his notebook.
Meeting adjourned.
Lin Yue went down to the lake at 2 PM today. The defense team prepared emergency equipment and arranged for personnel to fetch Dr. Zhang from building 90 and Dr. Cai from building 17.
......
At 2 p.m., the artificial lake was crowded with people.
Zhao Tiejun and Su Wan stood on either side of the top of Liu Yu's newly built arrow tower, their crossbows and recurve bows strung, fully alert as they faced the lake.
Lin Yue stood on the lake shore, with a climbing rope tied around his waist, a waterproof flashlight in his hand, and a miniature positioning transmitter that Jiang Xiaobei had temporarily modified, along with a walkie-talkie in a waterproof bag.
Chen Ximei stood at the front of the crowd, holding Lin Yue's younger sister. The little girl had two pigtails, wore a red cotton-padded jacket, and was chewing on a teething biscuit.
She held the little girl's hand and waved to Lin Yue.
Lin Yue glanced at his sister, then turned around to face the lake.
He bit the flashlight and walked into the lake without looking back.
The people on the shore held their breath, and Shen Yuan stopped the stopwatch, his brows furrowed.
Two minutes later, Lin Yue popped his head out of the water at the boundary between the artificial lake and the non-safe zone protective shield.
Lin Yue's voice came through the walkie-talkie, somewhat muffled by the sounds of water and breathing.
"There's a gap about three square meters in size at the boundary barrier; the monster probably squeezed in through there!"
