Chapter 155: They Are The Same
Quan Yuanwei looked at the others and continued, "The reward is food. I heard that scientific and technological talents can get about 30 kilograms of food every month. The bottom laborers only get 5 kilograms of food every month, but they will get a free meal a day."
Seeing his excited expression, Yao Ran asked, "Are you going there to apply?"
Quan Yuanwei sighed and said, "I want to go and see if I can get a job, but my grandparents are old. I need to stay and take care of them. Now is different from the past. If I leave, who will take care of them? I can't go."
Sima Yun thought for a while and said, "I will go there with my elder brother to find a job. With my martial arts skills, I think I can apply for a security guard position. My elder brother is an engineer and should be able to find a job."
He paused, looked at Quan Yuanwei, and said, "Brother Quan, how about you let your grandparents live with my family? My parents, sister-in-law, and nephew will stay. They can take care of each other."n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
It is better to live in their own house than to live with other people. Even if Quan Yuanwei agrees, he is not sure whether his grandparents will agree.
After thinking about it, Quan Yuanwei said, "Thank you, A Yun. I will discuss it with my grandparents."
Sima Yun nodded, then looked at Long Yu and others, "What about you guys? Will any of you want to go find a job?"
Yao Ran didn't want to have anything to do with the government because she wasn't sure whether they had anything to do with The Ark or not.
So, she shook her head and said, "I won't go."
When Long Yu heard this, he said, "I won't go either."
Since their captain and Yao Ran didn't go, Shi Xuan, Huang Qian, and Jia Xiang naturally stayed. The three of them looked at each other for a second and said at the same time, "We won't go."
Seeing that her elder brother did not go, Huang Zhihui said, "I will follow my elder brother." Deng Qiqi thought for a moment and said, "I will also stay. I don't want to go alone."
The seven of them have enough food to last for several years, so they don't need to compete with others for low-paying jobs.
Furthermore, natural disasters are unpredictable, and no one can predict what will happen next. Even if you are given food, you still have to live to eat it. It will be troublesome if a disaster occurs while they are separate.
Quan Yuanwei and Sima Yun nodded. They then discussed with others what things they needed to bring later to get the supplies for a while and then left.
Long Yu looked at Yao Ran and said, "Yao Ran, I'm going to interrogate that person." Yao Ran also wanted to interrogate the sniper, but she couldn't let others know what she wanted to ask. Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain where she learned about The Ark.
Noticing her hesitation, Long Yu said, "After I'm done, you can ask him what you want to know after I leave."
He had said so, and Yao Ran had no reason to refuse. She nodded, and the two went downstairs to visit the sniper.
After arriving at unit 1903, they opened the door. The door has never been unlocked since the family who lived there died.
As soon as Yao Ran and Long Yu stepped through the door, they saw the sniper tied up and lying on the dirty and cold floor of the living room. Seeing that he was still breathing, Yao Ran walked up to him.
She looked around and saw that everything was covered in dust, so she stood there and kicked the sniper's leg to wake him up.
"Hey, wake up."
The sniper who was kicked in the leg slowly opened his eyes. His body was cold and stiff, and he couldn't move. Seeing that it was Yao Ran and Long Yu who were coming, the sniper closed his eyes again and ignored them.
Yao Ran didn't care if he opened his eyes or not. She stood there, waiting for Long Yu to start interrogating the sniper. While she was waiting, Long Yu secretly observed her.
Recalling Yao Ran's reaction when she saw the badge on the sniper's collar, she obviously knew about the secret organization. However, as far as he knew, this organization called The Ark only appeared in the fourth year after the worldwide mutation began.
He thought about it all night, and there was only one answer that could explain everything Yao Ran had done since they first met. From when she turned her apartment into a fortress to her reactions when she saw the emblem of The Ark.
After thinking about it for the whole night, Long Yu decided to test Yao Ran. If she was really the same kind as him, she would have known it the moment he asked the sniper the first question.
Thinking of this, Long Yu looked at the sniper and asked, "Where is The Ark's headquarters?" As soon as he finished asking, Yao Ran turned to look at him. The surprise in her eyes was too obvious to ignore.
Seeing this, Long Yu was convinced that Yao Ran was reborn like him.
However, instead of feeling happy about having the same experience, he felt sad and distressed for her. Yao Ran, whom he knew in his previous life, lived a miserable life.
Before he could do anything for her, she was already dead when he found her. The regret he felt when he died in his previous life miraculously brought him back to the past. Fortunately, Heaven was kind to him, and they met earlier in this life.
Long Yu clenched his hands to control his emotions. His first task now is not to talk to Yao Ran about their past lives but to learn about The Ark's information from the sniper. If it weren't for The Ark, neither of them would have died.
