Night, the bonfire was lit.
The center of the campâs playground was filled with a large number of dry firewood. They were stacked together and quickly ignited, forming a large bonfire.
More than fifty people in the camp gathered here to celebrate tonightâs carnival. They had received the news of the evacuation earlier from the management.
A large amount of mutated water deer meat was placed next to the bonfire. It was continuously roasted, and the sizzling sound was heard.
In the past, even Chen Huâs high-ranking officials were reluctant to eat such a rare meat resource, but now they generously took it out and shared it with all the survivors.
This kind of behavior was not only to celebrate the fact that all the survivors were about to leave the Thunder City, but also to leave a good impression on Chen Hu so that they could make follow-up articles after returning to human society.
The dried vegetables such as mushrooms and fungus were even thrown into the iron pot to stew without any heartache. Together with the rare salt, soy sauce, MSG, and pepper seasonings, after several hours of cooking.., it gave off an extremely tempting perch, and the passing survivors could not help but look a few more times and swallow their saliva crazily.
Tonightâs meal was definitely the most sumptuous meal they had in a month.
In order to coordinate with the nightâs revelry, the manager, Chen Hu, was quite understanding and arranged three minutes of bathing time for each survivor.
He specially opened the water tower of the camp and developed the shower area to ensure that every survivor could be washed.
This also gave all the survivors their first chance to bathe in nearly a month. They got rid of the stench on their bodies and had a feeling of returning to civilized society.
After washing up, they put on the clean clothes that Chen Hu had prepared for them and went to the playground outside. They chatted with each other and thought about their plans after returning to society.
Standing inside the school building, Chen Hu saw the scene in the playground through the glass. He was quite satisfied. He could feel that every memberâs face was filled with joy. This included the reason why they were about to leave, there was also Chen Huâs generous move today, which was to hold a celebration party and also provide a chance to bathe.
Chen Hu did not feel any heartache about this. After all, they were going to leave this place tomorrow. Whether it was the clean water stored in the water tower or the food resources in the warehouse, they would all lose their use. It was better to take advantage of this and do a favor, open up the resources and let all the survivors celebrate.
In this way, they would more or less remember the treatment Chen Hu gave him. He would be able to write some articles when he was interviewed by the newspaper company after he returned to the city, which would improve his social status, he wanted to seek a higher position.
âBrother Chen, itâs about time.â
While Chen Hu was thinking, Wang Jian walked over and said to him.
As the core of this banquet, Chen Hu had to attend and give a speech to stabilize everyoneâs emotions so that they could smoothly trudge to lingtai airport the next day.
âEn, I understand.â
Chen Hu nodded slowly, retracted his gaze, turned around, and rushed to the sports field where the crowd was gathered.
...
âCheers! !â
Two glasses filled with beer collided and immediately dispersed before being gulped down by the two young men.
âHa... itâs been a long time since I last had a drink. Itâs still as delicious as I remember.â
âThatâs right, thatâs right. Brother Chen is really generous this time. He can even put out such things for us to drink.â
âThatâs right. Do you think brother Chen is the same as old thief Xu? In the past, he took care of us very well. After he took over, he even helped me transfer to the warehouse and became a manager.â
â âI agree with that. Brother Chen is really good to his people. After returning to society tomorrow, I plan to repay him in my own way. By the way, do you have any plans in the future?â
The young man who was questioned was stunned at first, then he started to think in his mind.
âI donât have the details. After all, I just learned about this news. If itâs possible, I want to find the news of my parents first. They have been trapped here for a month. I donât know which city they went to after they were evacuated.â
âDonât worry. If Iâm not wrong, the city weâre going to be relocated to should be the same as the previous evacuation. Trust me, youâll be able to meet your uncle and aunt soon.â
âWell... I hope so. I donât know what kind of job I can find. Weâre in such a special period now. The population is full, and jobs are scarce.â
âDonât worry. Weâll go and find out more when the time comes. At the very least, we can sell the mutated creature bones we collected and replenish our family first.â
âMm, youâre right.â
âEh... Whatâs going on over there? It seems to be very lively.â
âAh! ! Itâs brother Chen. Letâs hurry over. There wonât be any seats left if weâre late.â
After saying that, the two of them put down their wine glasses and left the campfire, rushing towards the place where Chen Hu had appeared.
After coming down from the teaching building, they walked all the way to the campfire on the field. There were people continuously greeting Chen Hu. From this, it could be seen how influential he was in the camp.
âBrother Chen.â
âBrother Chen.â
Chen Hu also showed his goodwill and raised his right hand to respond to the greetings.
âXiao Liu, are you feeling better after taking a shower?â
âOld Wang, eat as much as you want tonight. Tell me if you donât have enough.â
When he came to the campfire area in the center, a large crowd had already gathered around him. Lin Zeming, who was sitting there, also saw him.
âBrother Chen.â
âAh, officer Lin, itâs just right. This way please.â
There was no special platform, and the campfire was the best symbol. Using his own reputation, he gathered most of the crowd. Soon, Chen Hu began his speech.
âEveryone, is tonightâs meal enough?â
He first asked for a round of thanks from the people below as an opening.
âEnough! !â
âBrother Chen prepared it, it must be enough! !â
The crowd gave him face and responded to his question loudly.
âI think everyone should be clear that the reason why we are in this situation tonight is not because there is something wrong with my head, but because of this officer Lin beside me.â
Chen Hu was indeed worthy of being a leader, and his words were very smooth. He first used his sense of humor to mock himself, and then he brought up the real topic, giving all the credit to Lin Zeming. This way.., not only did the survivors improve their senses, even Lin Zeming was the same.
âItâs nothing. Brother Chen has helped me a lot.â
Faced with such praise, Lin Zeming naturally waved his hand and denied it. ..n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
However, Chen Hu immediately stepped forward and rested a hand on his shoulder. He smiled and said, âOfficer Lin, donât be modest. Donât you agree with everyone?â
âYes! ! !â
With such a grand scene, Lin Zeming couldnât say anything else. He could only accept it silently. However, in his heart, he had a better impression of Chen Hu.
âTonight is a celebratory night. I hope that everyone can enjoy it. When tomorrow comes, get your spirits up and arrive at the evacuation location. Raise your glasses! ! !â
Chen Hu picked up the wine glass that Wang Jian handed over and raised it above his head. He shouted loudly.
âRaise the glass! ! !â
âCheers! !â
Chen Hu took the lead and downed the wine in one gulp.
Immediately, the nightâs revelry reached its climax.
