Knowing that Jiang Chen would be here for a few days, Wang Zhaowu, who was responsible for the defense of the camp, immediately prepared a comfortable office and bedroom for him. He also told Jiang Chen to let him know if he had any orders.
But Jiang Chen didn't cause trouble for the staff in the camp, nor did he interfere with the normal operations of the camp. When he was free, he would sit at the desk with a book in his hand and write something.
"Your message has been conveyed to the underground." Xu Lu walked into the office of the command center and looked at Jiang Chen who was writing at the desk.
Jiang Chen put down the pen in his hand, stretched his back, and stood up from his office chair.
"Wu Yaguo's response?"
"They rejected and expressed shock at our choice."
Jiang Chen's expression didn't show the slightest surprise. "As expected. What was their response?"
Whether it was their rejection or their shock.
"They locked the elevator and closed the door of the fallout shelter. They hoped that you could calmly examine the friendship between the two sides," Xu Lu said with a smile.
Hearing this, Jiang Chen laughed and shook his head.
Too naive.
"Boss, what if they followed Han Junhua's strategy?" Xu Lu asked in a quiet voice.
"Seal the door? Haha, that's impossible. "
Seeing Jiang Chen's confident expression, Xu Lu's eyes were filled with confusion. With her intelligence, she could understand Jiang Chen's strategy to incite the fallout shelter residents to revolt, but she didn't understand why Jiang Chen was so confident that they wouldn't be able to seal the door.
The confusion didn't escape Jiang Chen's eyes, but he only smiled and didn't explain further.
"Speaking of this, what's the load of the elevator to the underground?"
"The design standard is 20 tons." Xu Lu was even more confused as she didn't know why Jiang Chen was asking this.
"Twenty tons? Okay. From today onwards, every day at noon, send people to pour down two tons of sand. "
Xu Lu paused for a moment before a smile of understanding appeared on her face.
"As you wish, boss. Is there anything else? "
Jiang Chen scanned the unfinished bill on the table. He was a bit tired, so he thought for a moment before he continued.
"Mhmm … Speaking of which, where is Han Junhua locked up?"
"In the basement of the camp," Xu Lu said in a quiet voice.
A playful smile appeared on Jiang Chen's face.
"I'm tired from work. Take me to see her."
…
Han Junhua's current condition would probably disappoint Wu Yaguo and the other resident councilors.
After being brought to the surface by Xu Lu, the whipping and humiliation she had imagined didn't come. She didn't even receive any excessive treatment. Or rather, the people at the Fishbone base were too friendly to her.
She was very surprised, but when she asked Xu Lu, she only received a mysterious smile.
The paramedics healed the bruises and bloodstains on her face and reconnected her broken ribs. With 170 years of medical technology, it was easy to eliminate this degree of damage, but what surprised her was that the survivors living above the ruins had also mastered this technology.
Then, she was brought to the basement.
There was a soft bed, a table and a chair. There were thick chains embedded in the walls, but no one had put them on her.
Every time it was mealtime, a young female soldier would bring in hot food for her. If she wanted to go to the washroom, the same female soldier would handcuff her and point a taser at her before escorting her to the washroom.
It made her confused. Did he just want to lock her up here?
Just like that, two days passed.
The metal door to the basement opened as a man and a woman walked in.
Seeing Jiang Chen's half-smiling face, Han Junhua was surprisingly calm.
Just like the day when she stood under the Type-50 electromagnetic pulse cannon, she faced Jiang Chen, pointed the pistol at her head, and counted down with an emotionless voice.
Jiang Chen walked in front of the former fallout shelter leader and pulled out a chair to sit down. Xu Lu, on the other hand, stood beside him, smiling as she looked into Han Junhua's eyes without saying anything.
"How do you feel right now?" Jiang Chen looked at the calm Han Junhua as he smiled.
Her long black hair draped to her shoulders, and under her eyebrows was a pair of calm eyes. A few bruises could be seen on her face, but with the help of medication, it wouldn't take long for the bruises to disappear. The military uniform was changed into a normal fallout shelter uniform. The tight fabric outlined her beautiful curves.
He heard that she was beaten up in the fallout shelter, but she looked fine now.
"Are you here to tease me?"
"Of course not. But you don't seem to be afraid at all? You have nothing to threaten me with now. "Jiang Chen laughed.
Han Junhua didn't speak as she looked at him quietly, just like the first time they met.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Jiang Chen continued, "How does it feel to be betrayed by the people you protect? Despair? Regret? Unbelievable — "
"Unfortunately, none." Han Junhua shook her head. "What are you going to do to me?"
None?
Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows. "What do you want me to do to you?"
"Intravenous injection."
"What's that?"
"A more humane way to die. Of course, if you think it's too troublesome, a bullet will do. "
"No, you might have misunderstood something. It would be a waste to execute you." Jiang Chen laughed.
Although her personality was flawed and not suitable for an administrative position, with some training, it would be nice to get her into a military position.
Up until now, the Fishbone base was not lacking in talents in all aspects, but it was still a blank space in the field of commanding talents. During a war, it was basically artillery bombardment followed by a simple and crude infantry charge. This type of combat style was enough for small-scale battles, but with the growth of the Fishbone base, they couldn't always expect their opponents to be small fries.
From the first time he saw Han Junhua, Jiang Chen had the intention to recruit her. As a PAC army colonel, although he didn't know how she became the leader of the fallout shelter, she wouldn't be an idiot when it came to commanding at the division level.
"My loyalty only belongs to PAC." But the girl didn't give him face as she said emotionlessly.
"But that thing is gone."
"Do you really think so?" Han Junhua asked.
Jiang Chen paused for a moment as he thought she didn't recognize the reality on the surface, so he scorned.
“PAC? Go find it light years away. You have two choices in front of you, join me, or- "
As he spoke, he took out a pistol from his pocket, loaded it, and slammed it on the table in front of Han Junhua. He looked at her provocatively in the eyes.
Xu Lu looked worriedly at the pistol on the table and then at the expressionless Han Junhua. She gently pulled on Jiang Chen's sleeve. "Boss …"
She was worried that Han Junhua would use the gun to do something harmful to Jiang Chen.
"It's okay, you can leave now." Jiang Chen waved his hand, signaling her not to worry.
Although she was worried, Jiang Chen's order was absolute to any "knight". Xu Lu looked at Han Junhua with a warning look before she left the room.
Han Junhua glanced at the gun on the table and then looked at Jiang Chen with a questioning look.
Jiang Chen's response was only three simple words.
"Live, or die."
Han Junhua was silent for a moment before she picked up the gun on the table.
Jiang Chen calmly watched her actions.
Then, she pointed the gun at her temple, just like when they first met that morning.
"Why do you have to do this?" Jiang Chen said helplessly.
"My mission is over. It is my honor to die as a soldier."
[Are all PAC officers paranoid?]
"It's hard to understand." Jiang Chen looked at her as if she was a monster.
"You're not from that era. You won't understand."
With that, she pulled the trigger.
Jiang Chen shook his head and closed his eyes.
The sound of a firing pin entered his ears.
