"That's it."
Ms. Liao was a little disappointed to hear the news, but she only felt melancholy for a second before calmly asking the next question.
"What about the others? Is there any information about their hideout?"
"There is some good news."
Captain Man pulled out a crumpled piece of paper. "When we got there, other survivors noticed our presence, and eventually someone came to us and gave us an address."
Ms. Liao took the note, somewhat surprised.
"Could this indicate the location of those guys' hideout?"
"Based on my guess, that's probably the case. The woman's words are highly credible. Judging from her tone and eyes when she talked about that group of people, she probably had a grudge against them."
That's why the woman came to test them so relentlessly. After confirming who they were, she threw the note at her and ran away.
"That's it."
Ms. Liao placed the note on the table and pondered for a while.
"Have someone re-interrogate the other few who are loyal but unwilling to tell the truth, show them this, and try to trick them."
Captain Man raised an eyebrow, readily picked up the note, and stuffed it into his pocket.
"Okay, I'll take care of it myself."
"Look at you, you have so many people under you, why do you always have to do things yourself? You need to take some time to rest occasionally, don't overwork yourself."
Ms. Liao was at her wits' end with her own niece. Some old folks would even bring this up, saying that she was too power-hungry and treated her own relatives like cattle.
Those guys don't even consider that Xiaoman's personality is something that just anyone can persuade.
Captain Man shook his head and refused as soon as he heard that.
"No need, what's the point of resting? I like having things to do; that makes me feel hopeful about life, and it helps us get better and better."
“There are people who are more suited to rest than me. I am full of energy now and do not need to rest. If you are tired, you should not push yourself too hard. I have heard from others that they always see you working very late and often forgetting to eat.”
Ms. Liao was speechless. "I had too many things to do, there was no other way."
Captain Man immediately echoed those words.
"I also have a lot of things to do and no time to rest."
"Fine, I can't argue with you."
Ms. Liao said helplessly, "Then go do whatever you need to do. I won't stop you, because I can't stop you anyway."
"Don't rush, there's something else."
Captain Man briefly explained the matter Liao Xin had asked her to handle, and concluded by saying, "I've dealt with Song Ning and the others several times, and I think Liao Xin's idea is good. What do you think?"
Ms. Liao nodded, "That's fine. I'll hold a quick meeting later to confirm with everyone and then we can make the arrangements."
She leaned back slightly as she spoke, letting out a rare sigh of relief.
"I hope this decision wasn't a mistake. If more capable people can develop, I hope they will also be able to help other survivors in the future."
The base's own resources are limited. After more than a decade in the apocalypse, people are the most important. Land has become excessive due to the massive loss of population. So much land is just sitting idle. What they hope for now is to make better use of the land and harvest more food. Even if they don't expect everyone to lend a hand, it would be good if they could just have enough to eat and think about other things.
At least we should create more people; population is very important.
"I can't guarantee anything for others, but I think these two are good people. Even if they don't lend a hand, as long as they don't cause us any trouble, that's already a help."
Ms. Liao nodded repeatedly at Captain Man's words.
“That’s true. I didn’t think that way before, but after so many people came to the base recently, I can understand what you’re saying now.”
Not to mention her, Liao Xin is probably thinking the same thing lately.
Liao Xin received a lot of subsidies recently, but he was also tormented by a group of people, regardless of their abilities, who all came to get involved.
Those who are capable are fine; at least they can be happy for a while when hosting guests. Even if someone is not a good person and is not kept, at least they won't feel too bad.
Those who lack ability but still try to cause trouble are a different story.
Those who lack ability but dare to come to the base to take a gamble are all bad apples, and they are all shameless. If they really had any shame, they wouldn't have come.
Liao Xin has persevered all this time, and Ms. Liao sometimes really thinks that the two siblings are both amazing, and she has to admire these kids.
"So, if you find a suitable and reliable person, you should arrange it for them as soon as possible. This is different from other things; the sooner you plant it, the sooner you will harvest it."
Having finished his summary and report, Captain Man stood up, holding his scarf.
"Then I'll get back to work, boss."
"You really can't stay still, huh? Fine, then go ahead and get busy with your work."
Ms. Liao thought the person had left and was about to go out to do her work when she heard Captain Liao lean closer and say something.
"Don't forget to come home for dinner on time tonight. It's your birthday, Auntie."
The door was closed, and Ms. Liao was stunned for a long time before a smile appeared at the corners of her wrinkled eyes.
"This child, I thought she was so busy with these things that she had forgotten. She's so thoughtful."
The good news about the implementation of the Farm No. 1 reward quickly reached Song Ning. He immediately rushed over happily, hugged Lance, and gave him a big kiss, his eyes sparkling.
"Really? Then let's go take a look tomorrow when you have time off?"
Lance reached out and scooped the person up, holding them in his arms.
"You can go today if you want, and there's still time."
He just returned from patrol; he still has time.
Song Ning quickly waved her hand and got out of his arms.
"There's no need to rush. You've been busy all day and must be hungry. Let's have a good meal and rest today, and then head over early tomorrow to see what procedures we need to complete. If we have enough time, we can tidy up the place and see if there's a place to rest. In the future, I can go there with you in the morning, and then after you finish your work at noon, we can have lunch and rest together before going home together. That way, you won't have to rush back so much, it's too tiring."
His words were all for Lance's sake, which made the man's eyes darken. He kept looking at Song Ning's lips, and when Song Ning finished speaking, he couldn't help but kiss her immediately.
"Okay, we'll do whatever Ningning says, we'll listen to you."
"What are you doing?"
Song Ning was a little dazed by his kiss, but she still instinctively reached out and hooked her arms around Lance's neck, responding to the kiss in return.
