Chapter 41: The Big Spaceman’s First Mission (1)

Ye Nai put down her phone, finished her dinner, took out the drinks and snacks in the space, counted the inventory, placed an order for takeout, bought a bunch of food, and had it delivered the next day.

The next day, after collecting the takeout, I exchanged two large buckets of water from the water station on the street and bought a lot of ice packs at the convenience store.

After the drinks are chilled in the refrigerator, they are put into a foam box lined with ice packs. When she wants to eat on the road, she can't eat alone, and they must share with others. Once the box is taken out, the chilled drinks will warm up immediately.

At noon, I received another message from Captain Mei, asking if her space could remain fresh.

[It can be kept fresh. I prepared some iced drinks. ]

[Great, then we'll gather half an hour early and go to the cafeteria to get packed food. If you have enough space, we don't need to bring dry food.]

【OK. 】

Ye Na looked at the instant dry food she bought from takeout and thought it would be better to put it in the space. It wouldn't go bad if she kept it there, and she could eat it whenever she felt hungry.

I went to bed early that night and was woken up by the alarm clock at five in the morning. After breakfast, I hung the clothes that had been drying on the balcony overnight back on the water pipe hangers and put them into the space together with the chest of drawers.

She had finished packing her luggage.

He changed into a short-sleeved shirt and work pants, checked the water and electricity, locked the door and went downstairs.

When they arrived at the bottom of Building 6, they saw a convoy of four off-road vehicles parked on the side of the road from afar. Men and women were standing in groups of three or five in front of and behind the vehicles. They were wearing camouflage short-sleeved shirts and long pants, bulletproof vests, and guns on their shoulders. Before Ye Na came closer, they saw her and waved for her to come over.

When I got closer, I saw Captain Mei who was blocked by the tall car body and confirmed that it was this team.

"Captain Mei." Yenna greeted first.

"Come, let me introduce you. This is Vice Captain Yang who is in charge of security, and this is Vice Captain Shen who is in charge of logistics. You should mainly follow Vice Captain Shen along the way. If you can't find Vice Captain Shen, then Vice Captain Yang, and finally me."

The entire team has entered the mission state. Seeing Ye Na coming, Captain Mei didn't say anything polite and directly introduced her to the contact person.

"clear."

Ye Na didn't think there was anything wrong with being straightforward, so she nodded.

"Follow me and get in the car behind."

Deputy Captain Shen was also a woman. She took Ye Nai to the second car and let her sit in the back seat alone. Deputy Shen sat in the passenger seat, and another team member drove.

At the command, the group of people outside got in their cars one by one. Ye Nai could see clearly that all the other cars were full, but her car only had three people including the driver.

It was his first time going out on a mission, and he was a hired mobile warehouse worker. He knew nothing and didn’t dare to ask anything. Ye Na just observed and didn’t say anything.

The convoy drove out of the community and turned along the main road, heading deeper into the danger zone. Finally, it came to a military camp and stopped in front of a building with a large canteen sign.

"Come on, let's get some food."

Deputy Captain Shen took Ye Nai out of the car and walked into the cafeteria. It was breakfast time in the military camp and there were many people eating. They went straight into the kitchen and watched the kitchen helpers pack the food on the spot.

There is a rich variety of food, including steamed buns, rice, noodles, stir-fried vegetables and soup, which are packed in bags and lunch boxes and then put into boxes.

Deputy Captain Shen was in charge of counting the food. Ye Nai watched from the side for a while and took out his cell phone to record the food after it was packed.

The teller instinct she had developed since childhood reminded her that she had to leave records of everything she did, otherwise she would be scolded.

She was a hired mobile warehouse. If she didn't leave any traces, if something went wrong with the supplies, she wouldn't be able to explain it. Deputy Captain Shen noticed Ye Nai's actions and nodded secretly with some satisfaction. She was a girl who knew how to do things.

Coming out of the cafeteria, we officially set off.

The main road leads directly to the plane channel. It looks very oppressive even from a distance. As it gets closer, Ye Na feels like she is being swallowed.

The periphery of the plane channel is also built like a small town, with heavy traffic, much more lively than Danger Zone No. 5, just like a tourist attraction with a huge flow of people.

"It's so lively here. In comparison, the flow of people in Danger Zone 5 is nothing."

Yenne's face was almost pressed against the car window, and she kept looking through the glass.

"It's nothing in the first place. If it were possible to rent a house here, so many awakened people would never have flowed to the three surrounding danger zones 5, 6, and 7. Now you know that it takes two hours to get here during a mission." Deputy Captain Shen laughed in the passenger seat.

“Are there any normal people living here?”

"Yes, but the environment is very bad. The shared rental housing that is strictly prohibited in the city is everywhere here. The area is even smaller. There is nothing else except a bed, and the bathroom is shared."

"Isn't this condition worse than the dormitory?"

"It's much worse. The shared housing here is called a pigeon cage."

"Luckily, I went directly to Danger Zone 5 and didn't come here."

"Haha, you won't be able to find a place to stay when you come here. Even the hotels are rented out by the team for a long time. And with your space capacity, it's not a good idea to come here rashly. You don't know anything, and others have plenty of ways to trick or force you to sign an unequal contract."

"Yes, I delayed my awakening, and all the common sense I knew was learned from online courses. During that time, I was afraid of people, and making any decision seemed like an adventure."

"How did you decide to go to the danger zone instead of coming directly here?"

"In order to make money, Danger Zone No. 1 is just a student welfare. I can only make or yuan a day. I don't have any professional skills, so I can only consider continuing to be a garbage collector. At that time, I didn't have the Awakener APP. I just searched on the Internet, and all I got was information about dangerous areas. Maybe this is my luck."

Ye Nai was not talking nonsense at all. She got her awakening badge from the center on the day she returned to school to get her diploma. Before that, she used a cheap card camera, and the information she looked up on the Internet certainly did not contain much detailed information about the awakeners.

"Good luck at critical moments is also part of strength."

While they were chatting, the convoy drove out of the bustling town, passed an electronic gate at the edge, and entered a bare avenue. At the end of the avenue was the dimensional passage standing between heaven and earth.

"Ah, so scary."

Ye Na couldn't help but exclaim.

"Come a few more times and you'll get used to it."

Deputy Captain Shen responded calmly that no matter who came for the first time, they would have the same reaction, and some people with weak mental health would even get sick and have other adverse reactions.

"I'll teach you a fun trick. Take out your phone and look at the time on it."

Ye Na quickly took out her cell phone and checked the time. It was just past 9 o'clock.

The moment he entered the plane channel, Ye Na held his breath.

Everything in front of her eyes went dark at first, then brightened up again after a second or two. The convoy arrived at a brand new small town. The architectural style was all local. Ye Na couldn't tell where she was for a moment.
