I have a space station

15 days later…

“Finally free!”

Several people released from the quarantine area stretched their backs and said with emotion.

Then, led by Brother Zhang and others, they came to the office area on the second basement level.

“Wow, this base is huge!”

“To build such a large base in Binjiang, it must be someone important!”

Everyone chimed in.

“Hello everyone, welcome to join us. The base is equipped with a medical area, which has been vacant. We are in urgent need of medical personnel,” Dongfang Chen said.

“Boss, our salaries are very high!” a man joked.

“Oh? No problem! It just so happens that we have too much money and don’t know how to spend it!” Dongfang Chen replied with a smile.

After he finished speaking, everyone laughed.

Yeah, what's the use of money? What can you buy now?

“Boss, why haven’t we seen the brother and sister?” a doctor who lived in the quarantine room opposite the siblings asked.

“They live in the living area on the first floor. You can see them when you go up later,” Dongfang Chen replied.

In the past half month, everyone understood. That girl was not simple; she was also an asymptomatic carrier. Because not only did the girl not zombify, but her original physical ailments also recovered.

After her illness was cured, the girl became particularly cheerful, loved to talk and laugh, and everyone liked her very much.

Perhaps this is a person blessed by God!

After a brief chat, Dongfang Chen took everyone to visit the medical area.

The medical area had basic medical equipment and a complete range of medications, which made everyone overjoyed. They sighed that entering the underground base was such a lucky thing.

Dongfang Chen left the medical area and went to the living area on the first floor.

The brother and sister were arranged in another corner away from everyone else and were cleaning up their room.

Seeing Dongfang Chen coming, the two stopped what they were doing and hurried to greet him.

“Brother Dongfang!” Luo’er called out happily.

“Luo’er, you must be polite and call him Boss!” the man pretended to correct sternly.

“Haha, it’s okay! Calling me brother is fine,” Dongfang Chen waved his hand indifferently.

The man looked at Luo’er sternly, without saying a word.

Luo’er returned a “cocky” roll of her eyes.

“If you need anything, you can tell us. We are all family from now on, so don’t be polite,” Dongfang Chen said helplessly to the man while Luo’er held his arm.

“Boss, you’re too kind! We are already very satisfied with having food and lodging. You saved us siblings, so feel free to ask us to do anything,” the man replied, patting his chest.

“It’s not really saving you. It’s mainly because Luo’er is gifted,” Dongfang Chen said with a smile, looking at Luo’er.

Luo’er was the first known mutant to Dongfang Chen!

After learning that she was a mutant, she was not afraid but very happy. She no longer looked sad every day, and her mental state was much better.

Because she would no longer worry about dying at any time like before; after being infected with the virus, she was worried about zombifying at any time, and finally, she could only leave her brother alone, living lonely and sadly.

She didn't worry about any of that anymore. She could stay with her brother forever, and even become a powerful mutant to protect her brother, as Dongfang Chen said.

So, the man thanked Dongfang Chen not only because Dongfang Chen gave them so much practical help, but also because he gave them the hope of survival.

Luo'er has basically recovered after this period of recuperation.

“Brother Dongfang, how did you know I was… a mutant?” Luo’er asked curiously.

“Did I say that? What mutant? I don’t know?” Dongfang Chen replied, pretending to know nothing.

Luo’er was stunned, and Luo’er’s brother was also stunned.

What's going on?

Did they dream it themselves?

Are you lying?

“Brother Dongfang, you told us before! You said that a very small number of people, after being infected with the virus, would have their own genes combined with the viral RNA. Not only would they not die, but they would also be strengthened to varying degrees and become a mutant,” Luo’er asked hastily.

Luo’er remembered what Dongfang Chen had said very well, which was the only motivation to support her to live.

Dongfang Chen smiled, scratched Luo’er’s nose, and smiled:

“What, are you unhappy that you are not a mutant?”

“Brother Dongfang, you were lying to me just now, right?” Luo’er asked with her big watery eyes flickering, expectantly.

Alas! Damn sympathy. Dongfang Chen couldn't continue to make up lies for the first time.

His always-victorious deception technique was actually restrained by a little loli!

Failure! It's really a failure!

Although he was extremely reluctant to admit it, at this moment, Dongfang Chen really couldn't bear to deceive a little girl and deprive her of her only motivation to live, so he said helplessly:

“I was lying to you!”

“Yay! I knew it! Brother Dongfang is the best! He won’t lie to me!” Luo’er jumped up and down happily, gesticulating.

The brother next to her thought:

“What about me? Am I not good? Am I not the best?”

But out of consideration for Dongfang Chen's face, he was embarrassed to say it.

Of course, as long as his sister was happy, he wouldn't be jealous of such trivial matters.

“Okay, okay, stop shaking, you’re making me dizzy,” Dongfang Chen quickly grabbed Luo’er to prevent her from continuing to shake him.

“However, it’s settled. Only you two siblings know about this. Don’t reveal it to anyone else, including the people in the base. To the outside world, you just say you are asymptomatic carriers, remember?” Dongfang Chen said very seriously.

“Why?” Luo’er asked, not understanding.

“Luo’er, we’ll do what the boss says, don’t ask questions,” the man stopped her.

Luo’er stuck out her tongue and stopped talking.

Dongfang Chen waved his hand to show that it didn't matter.

“The reason is simple: a common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime. This matter should not be made known to everyone in the short term.”

Originally, he planned to never admit that he had said anything about the mutants, and wait for a suitable opportunity to announce it.

But the deception technique actually failed…

The man nodded to show his approval.

Luo’er also nodded as if she understood.

“You stay here for two days first. If there are no other problems, move over and live with everyone. Especially Luo’er’s condition, you have to pay attention to it at all times. To be honest, I don’t know what kind of changes will occur after becoming a mutant, because everyone’s situation is different,” Dongfang Chen instructed the man.

“Okay, I will pay attention to it at all times,” the man nodded in response.

“Brother Dongfang, can I come and play with you when I’m free?” Luo’er asked.

“Luo’er, the boss is very busy, he doesn’t have time to play with you!” Whether it was out of a protective instinct for his sister or unwillingness to trouble Dongfang Chen, the man stopped her.

“Luo’er. It’s temporarily inconvenient for everyone to enter my office,” Dongfang Chen refused.

“Okay then!” Luo’er replied with her head hanging down.

“Brother Shen, what are you good at?” Dongfang Chen asked.

“I used to be a boxing coach, and I’m relatively good at fighting,” the man replied.

“Okay, Brother Shen. Go find Brother Zhang in two days and join the guard team too. Luo’er is well now, and you don’t need to take care of her all the time,” Dongfang Chen said.

“Okay, Boss!” the man Shen Wengang replied.

In the base, it is very necessary to arrange something for everyone to do.

No one wants to be taken care of or treated as a special existence.

At the same time,

No one wants to be ignored or treated as a little nobody.

Even if there is a very simple thing to do, it can instantly make everyone find belonging and a sense of existence.

Dongfang Chen deeply understands this.

Dongfang Chen nodded and turned to Luo’er and said:

“Luo’er, if you feel any special changes in your body these days, you can come to me.”

“Got it,” Luo’er replied cheerfully.

After arranging the affairs of the new recruits, Dongfang Chen returned to the office.

A lot has happened in the last 15 days.

First, a large number of infected people in Xicheng zombified, and then Xicheng was completely closed off.

Then, the 9 temporary resettlement sites were surrounded by a large number of zombies, infected people appeared one after another inside, and supplies could not be delivered… Under internal and external troubles, all of them were unable to operate in just 3 days.

Helplessly, the people were urgently sent to Funing District.

So far, Xicheng has completely become the world of zombies.
