Chapter 89: As If Worlds Apart
"But..."
Dong Junwei glanced at Chen Mu, "What about those three people from before..."
"That incident was just a coincidence. I believe they can understand," Chen Mu's opinion was to accept the newcomers and he continued, "Recruiting new members always carries risks, but if we do nothing, the risks will only be greater."
"What does Tang Jing think?" Dong Junwei asked again.
Tang Jing didn't answer immediately; instead, she turned her head and asked He Ying, "What's your opinion?"
Chen Mu saw Tang Jing seeking He Ying's opinion, which clearly indicated that she was ready to accept these four people.
Because He Ying's situation was very similar to these four people in the past. They all tried to steal food and were caught by Chen Mu, which would definitely create empathy between them.
When He Ying was asked about her thoughts, she could only say, "The only risk of recruiting these four people is whether they will resent Chen Mu after knowing the truth. If Chen Mu doesn't mind, then I don't mind either."
Although the rules and regulations of "Qi Ming" had been established, the number of people was still too few, and in reality, they hadn't really been applied. Even now, this matter of recruiting people was solely decided by Chen Mu and the other three, with Wei Dalei barely involved.
Now that all four of them agreed, it naturally became the final decision.
"We need to test their individual abilities first. If what they said is true, then their direct combat abilities are not strong, and there's no need to be too wary of them. Otherwise, we might indeed have to keep them tied up for a while."The roots of this story extend from novell bìn origin.
"That guy, Lu Liangliang, has some skills," Chen Mu commented.
"Hmm?"
"When he resisted earlier, he showed some moves. If his ability is really just to increase the mass of objects, it suggests that he must have practiced before, maybe in martial arts or swordsmanship."
These days, extracurricular classes were diverse, and as a boy, it was not uncommon to learn some martial arts or grappling. Although most people would give up halfway through high school to focus on their studies, there were still those genuinely interested in such things.
Chen Mu had a lot of experience in fighting from a young age, but it was all street fighting; he had no knowledge of martial arts or combat techniques, so it was just a guess on his part.
He Ying became interested, "When I have the time, I'll test him."
"Test him for what?" Chen Mu didn't understand.
"I have learned traditional Chinese martial arts, and I've been exposed to various styles. Whether he has formal training or not, I can tell at a glance."
"No wonder," Dong Junwei smiled, then asked again, "So, should we let Lu Liangliang go for now?"
...
After a busy night, when everything settled down, the sky outside was already getting brighter.
Although it was much earlier than the usual waking time, with all that had happened, they couldn't just go back to sleep.
Chen Mu and the others decided to have breakfast earlier.
Under Tang Jing's continuous suggestions, the regulations and affairs of "Qi Ming" were gradually being improved. This included the timings for meals throughout the day, the use of water and bathing schedules, duty rosters for the watchtower, and even cleaning arrangements assigned to each person - every detail was taken into consideration.
Normally, breakfast was served at 7:30 in the morning, but today, due to the special circumstances, it was moved up to 6:00.
Du Jiajia had developed an increasing interest in cooking, but unfortunately, they only had limited ingredients to work with, making her feel unsatisfied. However, the advantage was that she was getting faster at cooking, even surpassing Chen Mu in some aspects.
Currently, food was relatively abundant, and with four more mouths to feed, it wasn't too much of a problem.
For Chen Mu and the others, while the flatbreads were still edible and didn't induce nausea, they had become rather mundane. Eating every day felt more like a routine, simply a way to replenish their energy.
However, for Lu Liangliang and the others, this meal was an absolute revelation. Since the first day of the apocalypse, they had been plagued by food scarcity. Even during the best times, they could only scavenge for leftovers and cold dishes found on the ground. They had considered going to the cafeteria, but every time they thought about the long and dangerous journey, they couldn't muster the courage.
It must be said that in such a disaster, most people tend to become conservative and negative, and Lu Liangliang and the others were no exception. After losing their three strongest companions, their situation became increasingly difficult, and in the end, they had to rely on the corpses of ants and insects for survival.
But now...
The steaming hot hand-grabbed pancake placed in front of them contained a variety of vegetables and meat, even familiar sauces that emitted enticing aromas.
It felt as if they had traveled to a different world.
