I have a space station

“Big sister, if I don’t sign up, can I go to the city with my brother?” Luo’er ignored him and turned to ask the young woman beside her.

“I’m sorry, I’m afraid not,” the woman said apologetically.

“What if I secretly follow along?” Luo’er continued to ask.

“If you do that, I’m afraid not only will you not get paid, but we will also be implicated. You may not be clear, but the people we recruit need to be registered with the headquarters. If there are any accidents, we will also bear joint responsibility. So, if you insist on going, either sign up, or we won’t dare to use either of you,” the woman explained.

“Did you hear that, brother? You don’t want to leave me alone in the settlement, do you?” Luo’er asked with a smile.

“This… well, then give it a try. Don’t force yourself if you can’t do it. At worst, we just won’t go,” Shen Wengang reminded her.

Luo’er nodded lightly and placed the long object on her back against the wall.

She stretched her wrists.

Her intuition told her that she could lift this barbell.

However, to be safe, she first gently lifted it like Shen Wengang to feel the weight.

“Woah!” This action surprised the onlookers.

Even the young woman beside her was shocked.

“Is this… really a young girl of eighteen or nineteen? How can she be so strong? You know, there were several men before who couldn’t even lift it.”

Several men in the crowd wished they could find a hole to crawl into. It was embarrassing!

Luo’er put down the barbell, looked at her brother, and nodded.

Meaning she could do it.

Shen Wengang also nodded, indicating his agreement.

Seeing her brother agree, Luo’er lowered her head again, took a deep breath, and concentrated.

She gripped the barbell with both hands, exerted force, and lifted!~

“She lifted it! She… really… lifted it!” The crowd exclaimed in unison.

After about seven or eight seconds, Luo’er put down the barbell, her face flushed from holding her breath.

“Brother, look, I lifted it!” Luo’er said happily.

Shen Wengang gave her a thumbs up.

The crowd burst into thunderous applause.

Soon, the first test was completed.

Out of dozens of people, only eight passed the test.

The rest were eliminated and left dejectedly.

“Okay, next we will conduct the second test: shooting,” the young woman said to the remaining eight applicants.

The shooting mentioned here is not with a gun, but with a crossbow. Because guns are forbidden among the people, everyone can only use crossbows as weapons.

“Hello, can my sister and I not participate in this test? Because we have weapons, we don’t need these crossbows,” Shen Wengang asked.

The young woman looked at Mei Wenhua sitting on the steps and asked for his opinion.

Mei Wenhua nodded lightly, indicating his agreement.

“Alright then, the two of you can skip the second round of testing,” the young woman said.

The others had no objections, anyway, they were not competitors, so it didn’t matter.

The requirements for the second round were not difficult. Each person had 5 arrows, and as long as one arrow hit the bullseye, it was considered qualified.

In the end, only 1 person was eliminated.

The third round did not involve any further testing but instead, a document was produced.

The young woman distributed the document to each person and said:

“This is the final test. What you have in your hands is a letter of commitment. Here, I need to remind everyone: once the letter of commitment is signed, it means that you fully understand the risks of this mission and are voluntarily participating. Of course, you can choose to sign or not, that is your right. I will give you 10 minutes to consider.”

Shen Wengang carefully looked through the contents of the letter of commitment, which was nothing more than an agreement on some disclaimers in the event of various accidents. In short, it meant that they did not want to take responsibility.

After reading it, Shen Wengang picked up a pen and signed his name: Tiangang.

Luo’er also followed her brother’s example and signed her name: Qianluo.

The young woman glanced at the document and didn’t look closely.

Perhaps in her eyes, whether these people had names or not had nothing to do with her. Who would care if they really died outside, who would investigate?

Among the seven people, two refused to sign such a hegemonic clause and left angrily.

In the end, the number of people performing the mission was only 5.

Early the next morning.

The 5 people sat in two jeeps and arrived in the suburbs of Mozhou City.

The weather was bad today, with a light drizzle.

The temperature in December was already very low, and walking on the road covered with fallen leaves felt very damp and cold.

Shen Wengang and Luo’er were fine, they had the protection of combat suits, and their movements were natural.

The other three people were not so good, walking forward carefully while their teeth chattered from the cold.

Luo’er glanced at the three of them, but said nothing.

Before they set off, the young woman provided each person with a map of Mozhou and marked the possible locations of the four targets. She promised that if they could not find anyone in several locations, then the mission would be considered complete, and they could return.

“Hey, brother, where should we go first?” a man asked Shen Wengang.

“Let’s go in order, go around in a circle, and then come back here,” Shen Wengang said, taking out the map.

“Isn’t that too slow?” the man questioned.
