In the restaurant on the second floor, the brand-new new members gathered together happily and chattered non-stop.
In the afternoon, Iger joked to Bill that he was rotten, but in fact their entire team was in similar condition.
The Evans Brotherhood did not have the conditions to provide hot baths, and even the fuel used for cooking was tires removed from scrapped cars, so all the food had a damn rubber smell.
After spending a lot of time to finally shave themselves off and put on a set of clothes that are clean from the inside out, everyone feels like they are alive again.
At this time, a strange young man walked in from outside. Everyone was talking and laughing without noticing him at all.
Kate was still sharp-eyed, and she saw the gun belt around the young man's waist.
"Oh my God, are you Bill?!" Kate screamed, attracting everyone's attention.
The young man reached out and touched his chin. The damn beard was too long, and the personal razor kindly sponsored by Egger didn't work at all. He used the boot knife he wore, and shaved repeatedly for a long time, and finally used the razor to clean it.
clean.
Everyone stared at the young man until he said, "Don't be so surprised, okay? It's really me."
Hearing the familiar hoarse voice, everyone finally believed that this young and frighteningly young man was actually Bill.
Bill is only 18 years old this year. Although he has been in the gang for several years, he is too young and has never received the attention of his family.
When Bill became famous, it was already approaching the time of the blood plague.
After the blood epidemic broke out, firstly, there was no time, secondly, there was no condition, and thirdly, Bill deliberately made himself rough.
As a result, Bill successfully became the well-known middle-aged rough guy with a chicken coop on his head, a big beard on his face, who likes to chew tobacco, and whose voice is not as good as that of a duck.
Today, Bill finally straightened himself up and made a stunning appearance.
The biggest surprise was Kate.
Bill is his captain's part-time boyfriend, and his handsome appearance now is definitely much better than the rough appearance before.
After dinner, several new members mingled with the old members to play games or watch movies. The two female team members were brought to the room by Joanna. She had a lot of bottles and cans of various gadgets, ready to use them first.
These help them repair and repair damaged skin.
No woman can resist Joanna, just like a man can't resist Nicholas's little movie.
Cosmetics are low-value commodities, and Joanna spent all her credit points on them. You can imagine how huge the types and quantities are.
Joanna needs someone to share this happiness with her, especially today, she really has a lot of happiness that she wants to share with anyone, no matter who it is.
Ai pulled Bill aside and said to Bill: "Have you thought about what job you want to do? In fact, you don't have to worry that the back office will bury your ability. There are also people who are very good at fighting among the back office staff. Captain Ai of the back office security team
Rika, she is a professional security personnel, and the patrols in the Green Zone are now handled by the internal security team."
Bill did not answer. He asked Egger: "Have all the others been chosen? How did they choose?"
Egger did not hide anything, he said: "Three field teams, two internal staff. Kate, Peter and Sandra chose to stay in the field team, and Greg and Sarah wanted to stay in the internal staff."
Bill nodded. After taking a deep breath, he said to Iger: "I won't change. I choose to work in the field."
"Thank you for your support, brother." Iger hugged Bill, and Bill hugged him hard.
Later, Bill was taken away by a passionate and beautiful beauty. If she hadn't been too tall, Iger wouldn't have recognized that she was Kate.
Makeup, one of the four evil arts, really has the magical power to turn Cinderella into Snow White instantly.
After watching Bill leave, Iger held his forehead and made a headache expression.
When Iger and Bill had a one-on-one conversation this afternoon, he felt that something was wrong with Bill. Bill gave Iger a very bad feeling.
Iger felt that this was probably his own illusion. After all, Bill was his "second brother" and he subconsciously regarded Bill as his peer.
As a result, Bill was indeed his "peer". He was not two years older than Joanna. In addition, girls in this age group obviously mature earlier than boys, so Iger felt so awkward when talking to Bill.
There is an older brother here, he is clearly a little brother.
After it was confirmed that four of the people Bill had brought over had joined the field, Iger was also ready to fulfill one of his promises and let Thomas return to the back office.
It’s a long story. More than a month ago, Thomas came to Iger and hesitated for a long time before saying that he wanted to apply for transfer back to the back office.
Without even thinking about it, Iger said no directly.
Thomas did not leave. He continued to pester Iger for a long time. When Iger was about to raise his hand to slap him, he gave a reason why he wanted to join the back office: because Catherine was pregnant, he wanted to join the back office and marry her.
What?
Iger naturally knew that Thomas and Catherine were flirting with each other during this period, but how could they be pregnant just now?
Even though Thomas looked so weak, he didn't expect it to be okay.
wrong.
Egger suddenly noticed an important piece of information. He asked Thomas with doubtful eyes: "Are you sure the child is yours?"
Although Thomas is stupid, he is still one of his subordinates after all, so don't let him mention a double happiness (the child is not your own, which is indeed a great joy for African Americans, which means that he does not have to pay a huge amount of alimony.
For details on how many ghosts and beasts there are, you can search "The Morrie Show" on your own).
This heartbreaking remark directly made Thomas feel a deep pain in his balls.
Thomas nodded firmly towards Egger.
What Iger didn't know was that there was a thing called Zaozao test strips, which had a single-use accuracy of 99% and a theoretical accuracy of 100% with repeated use.
What Iger doesn't know yet is that here, when a dark-skinned girl has a relationship with a dark-skinned boy, she will use test strips to test whether she has won the bid as soon as possible. Once she wins the bid, she will immediately grab the last man she had sex with to avoid herself.
Bear all the aftermath costs solely.
In this way, when Thomas knew that Catherine was pregnant, his first thought was to give birth to the child and then marry her. Well, the order was exactly right.
Thomas knew that he was not suitable for field work, and he also knew how dangerous field work was.
Especially since the huge wave of infected people broke out, the field team has become completely involved with the infected people.
Although there is a road wall to block the infected, it is as fragile as a layer of window paper, and the infected may see through this little trick at any time.
Besides, even if a dam is built, if the water level keeps rising, sooner or later the dam will overflow or break.
Gu Bing
In order to reduce the pressure on the infected group, the field team's field activities during this period have all been to cross the road wall and go to the red zone to proactively kill the infected group.
The risk factor of field work has skyrocketed.
Once, the field brigade was surrounded by infected people in the town of Todo. Tens of thousands of infected people poured in from all the streets like a flood. In this desperate situation, it was all up to Egger and Joanna.
With seamless cooperation, the vehicle forced its way out through the gap created by Egg's gunshot.
Another time, Thomas ran too slowly while retreating and was overtaken by a large group of infected people. A female infected person even reached out and grabbed the hood of Thomas' coat.
Joanna and Nicholas present both thought Thomas was going to kill him. At the critical moment, Egger showed off his rapid fire.
3 magazines in 60 seconds. The rapid and precise burst of firepower suddenly created a clear space among the infected people. Then Thomas rolled and climbed to catch up with the pickup truck that had started. Nicholas and Egg worked together to pull him up.
The car is coming.
That time, Thomas experienced the fear of escaping from death.
Every time after that, Thomas felt like he was parting with Catherine.
After learning that Catherine was pregnant, Thomas decided to beg Iger after her repeated persuasion. After getting along with him for such a period of time, he knew that Iger was a soft-spoken character, so begging him well would always be useful.
After Iger heard Thomas' request, he thought for a while. To be honest, he couldn't trust Thomas.
A bad person like Thomas could deliberately create a child as a way to avoid death in order to keep himself alive, so Iger put forward a minimum requirement for Thomas. Thomas wanted to transfer to the back office, and at least promote himself to the rank of trainee stock investor.
class.
As the number of employees increases, the requirements for promotion also become higher and higher.
Promotion from member to trainee investor requires 10 merit points.
This threshold is neither high nor low.
Back office staff can get 1 credit point every 5 weeks, which means that after new employees join the team, they can be converted into trainees after one year of back office work.
Field workers have more opportunities to earn merit points, but after the outbreak of infected people, all scavenging operations were forced to stop. Now, the field team is doing daily field work with 5 points each time.
The so-called daily field work is to fight monsters.
Iger knew Thomas's habits. He spent every penny and had no habit of saving at all. It was because Thomas had this habit that Iger thought it was better for him not to get married and not to harm Catherine.
After being unable to withstand Thomas's pleas, Iger asked him for promotion just to see how determined he was.
After hearing Egg's nearly impossible request, Thomas walked away dejectedly.
Egg looked at his back and shook his head. Youdao said that it is easy to change one's nature, and it is not that easy to change from a boy to a man.
In the more than a month since then, Thomas has undergone earth-shaking changes. Every time he goes to work, it's like getting a shot of blood. The lazy and lazy guy in the past now has a completely new spirit.
No one wants to be a sucker, and no one wants to be a sucker forever. What many people lack is a chance to start over, let alone the motivation to cheer themselves up.
Love, family, and responsibility are all Thomas's motivations.
For more than a month, the life of the field brigade can be described as tense and exciting in one sentence.
They used the Screamer's sensory effect to try to direct the attention of the infected group away from Jixi Town, which required them to tease the infected people for a walk.
While walking the dog, use chemical fertilizers and explosives, and retreat while fighting. When the ammunition and food are almost consumed, make a large circle to avoid detection by the infected, and return to Jixi Town via other roads for supplies.
During this period, Iger also checked the big meat block on the road in Puduo City. The group of infected people gathered there had long since dispersed. The big meat block was still there, but it looked like it had lost its life. He actually killed it casually.
Egg felt as if he had killed a queen bee that was still in the larval stage.
It feels so good.
In the more than two months since the infected group lost control due to the death of the Blood Plague Heart, the four members of Egger's field team conducted 32 sorties for a total of 51 days, and estimated to have killed more than 5,000 infected people.
The vast majority of infected people were killed by chemical fertilizers and explosives, and the cleanup work of the field brigade has been streamlined.
Under the desperate attack of the field brigade, the back office is also working hard to prepare supplies for the field. After several improvements to the fertilizer explosives, the igniter is now changed to a straw rope soaked in mixed fuel.
It's the straw rope that Avella finished her work. The straw rope is flame-resistant and tough, much better than candles.
Candles are too unpredictable. There have been two instances where candles were knocked over by infected people. Once, the explosives were not ignited, and once, the explosives exploded prematurely.
Moreover, candles are greatly affected by the weather, and not every day is sunny or rainy.
Once it rains, the candle cannot be used, but the straw rope is not afraid of rain.
No one thought that Elvira's manual skills could be of such use. It can only be said that each inconspicuous member might be of great use in certain situations.
The attractor of fertilizer explosives has also been changed.
At first, I attracted people to use mobile phones. After buying several new mobile phones, Iger felt that it was too wasteful.
Later, Iger switched to dolls from a store on the first floor of the Morgan Building.
In actual use, these little guys who keep shouting "Mommy, Mommy, Daddy, Daddy" when powered on and then make a string of abnormal ghostly laughter are more effective than mobile phones.
In this way, amid the crazy spread of infected people, the field team used blood and corpses, of course, the blood and corpses of infected people, to protect the safety zone of the gospel team and guide the admission of several groups of infected people.
The Rangers team was cornered.
Some of these wandering teams left after overcoming the danger, and some joined the gospel team out of gratitude.
Due to the arrival of the Rangers team, the gospel team's foreign trade business has also been launched ahead of schedule. The gospel team has announced different safety regulations for the Jixi Town Fortress, the built-up area of Jixi Town, the core safety zone and the secondary safety zone.
Regardless of the number of members of the gospel team, the actual results are before everyone's eyes. Lily's radio broadcasts news about the annihilation of infected groups every day. These are actual results of piling up practical corpses.
The arrival of Bill and others is an unexpected surprise for Egger, and the number of personnel in the field team can be expanded a lot at once.
As for Thomas, just follow the previous agreement and let him go.
A guy who has set a flag to go home and get married after completing his mission cannot be allowed to receive lunch anyway.
Another important reason for releasing Thomas is that Egger's mood has changed.
In the past, Iger didn't believe that love could change a person.
