Chapter 104 The Rainy Season is Coming
Before coming here, she was still trying to discuss whether she could pay in installments, but after finishing a class, this idea was immediately abandoned.
It’s better not to offend him.
Her goal is to learn real things, there is no need to look for trouble and make things difficult for herself.
Anjiu gave him 5,000 contribution points without a penny difference.
He bowed slightly and said, "I'll leave everything to Captain Pu from now on."
Pu Huai looked at her back which was still straight when she leaned over, and her hair hanging down in a soft arc at the corner of her forehead.
He ordered them to leave without any expression on his face.
"You should go back and rest. Come on time tomorrow."
Anjiu didn't say anything more and closed the iron door quietly when he left.
When I got back home, my grandmother was still awake. When she saw me come back, I raised my upper body and lifted the corner of the quilt beside me.
"Come in and get some sleep. You have to get up early tomorrow."
"right away."
Anjiu locked the door, took off her coat and lay down on the bed. Her grandmother had warmed the quilt and she rubbed it comfortably.
"How are you doing in school?" grandma asked softly.
"Not bad, Captain Pu taught very carefully."
Knowing that grandma was worried, Anjiu did not get impatient and explained the matter in detail.
"That's great. Study hard. This is a rare opportunity..."
Listening to the faint whispers coming from next door, Pu Huai lowered his eyes and looked out the window at the wasteland shrouded in a layer of bleak moonlight.
……
As the dark clouds draw closer, mining becomes more urgent.
The lunch break was shortened, and Ji Zhenzhen was arranged by Pu Huai to deliver drinking water to every mine cave.
In this way, the mining task of the No. 1 mine fell on Anjiu alone, and with her personal task of ten kilograms, the burden became even heavier.
In order to complete the task before getting off work and absorb as many crystals as possible, Anjiu did not dare to slack off at all. He forced himself to sweat profusely and broke through his limits again and again.
Soon, she found that the absorption speed had increased, and a fist-sized crystal only took three seconds at most.
It was great news for her.
Amid the clinking sounds of the chiseling, she keenly distinguished the sound of footsteps mixed in. She immediately stopped absorbing and focused on mining.
Three seconds later, a familiar voice sounded behind him.
"Anjiu."
She stopped panting and looked back. Pu Huai was standing at the entrance of the mine and threw a rice ball to her from a distance.
"Fuck it after you finish."
She took it, thanked him, and sat down to eat.
As soon as I took a bite, I realized something was wrong - this time the rice ball actually had flavor.
When I took it away, I saw a piece of meat as thick as a finger in the middle of the rice ball!
Anjiu was shocked.
I didn’t expect to be able to eat meat in the beehive!
"Captain Pu——"Did you take the wrong one?
But there was no sign of Pu Huai in front of the mine.
Anjiu quickened his eating pace.
Not long after lunch, I heard Ji Zhenzhen running by, shouting, "Hurry up! Time to call it a day! Hurry and get back, a rainstorm is coming soon!!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone rushed out, handed in their tools, and stood aside, anxiously waiting for Pu Huai and Ji Mo to recover the crystals and return them to the special mine where they were stored.
A minute later, two people appeared.
"Set off."
Workers throughout the mining area were racing against time to get to the surface.
When we got out of the mine, everything was dark.
The sky above, which was bright when I came in the morning, is now covered by dark clouds.
The heavy black clouds were right above my head, hanging down like milky things. It seemed as if I could touch them with my hand, but also as if they would fall from the sky in a second.
It was still swallowing up the blue sky in the distance at a speed visible to the naked eye - I didn't notice it before, but when I was under the cloud, I was shocked to realize how fast the black clouds were moving.
"Hurry! Get in the car quickly!" Ji Zhenzhen leaned over from the driver's seat and shouted, but the strong wind blew her voice into pieces.
Everyone woke up and crowded into the car.
Without waiting to sit firmly, Ji Zhenzhen stepped on the accelerator and rushed out with a bang.
The wind felt like a knife on my face.
The women's hair spun like a propeller, pulling them into the air.
Anjiu quickly put on his hood, buried his head between his knees, pressed the edge with his knees to prevent it from blowing up, and huddled in a corner, holding on to anything that could hold his body in place with both hands.
Thick lightning bolts spread across the wasteland like spider webs.
Even though she buried her head between her knees, her vision was filled with blinding white at that moment.
In the distance, there was a loud bang from the collision of clouds, which made all the internal organs jump violently.
Anjiu looked up quickly.
At first glance, it was a visible downpour, but at second glance, it turned into huge streams of water falling down.
When it fell, even the ground shook.
Dark clouds were gathering over the city, threatening to destroy it. Anjiu finally understood what was going on.
At this moment, she felt a strong push on her back and she immediately grabbed onto something to ensure that she would not be thrown out of the car.
It is no exaggeration to say that the car is flying across the wilderness.
Ji Zhenzhen stepped on the accelerator to the bottom and sped away, trying to get back to the building before the rain ball wiped out their entire army.
Everyone in the truck was in a panic, unable to even cry. They just hoped it would go faster and faster.
Finally, the Beehive Building appeared not far away.
There were a lot of people gathered outside wanting to get into the building, and they looked up anxiously at the slowly rising elevator.
"Quick!"
"Again? Hurry up!"
"The rain is coming! This rain can kill people!"
Finally the elevator arrived, and a group of people rushed in like crazy, cursing one after another. The elevator was full and there was no room for everyone. Some people even tried to climb on top of others.
At this moment, the elevator made a shrill buzzing sound.
Then the man was kicked hard and flew out. After a few fingers poked the buttons frantically, the elevator door finally closed.
When Ji Zhenzhen finally parked the car outside the beehive, a group of people got out of the car and ran straight to the elevator.
"Don't worry about the car! Go back to the building!" Pu Huai shouted to Ji Zhenzhen who was still trying to secure the car.
At this time, the rain ball was very close, just like the Dragon King poured a basin full of foot washing water. Just looking at it made me feel difficult to breathe and my scalp hurt.
A new wave of elevators arrived, and the people who had been gathered outside hurried in to take up their seats.
They knew Pu Huai and were afraid that they would be dragged out and have their own people take over, so they kept pressing the buttons to close the door.
But at the critical moment when it was about to close, the person who caught up reached out to stop it.
The door opened again, and the elevator was full in just a few seconds.
But there are still people outside trying to squeeze in.
"Don't push the remaining people, let them go upstairs!" Pu Huai gave an order, and with Ji Mo's control, the elevator wobbled up.
The faces of those who stayed there were filled with anxiety, panic, trembling and fear.
But with Captain Pu in front, who would dare to disobey orders?
The second wave of elevators arrived, and Pu Huai arranged everyone to line up in an orderly manner, so that everyone could return to the building in the shortest time possible.
They couldn't see how close the rain was getting, so they could only look up at the elevator and the sky above the building, trembling with fear.
The third wave of elevators arrived, and Anjiu followed the people in front of him and walked in.
But suddenly her arms felt tight, she was pulled out of the team, and then her head hit hard against a strong arm.
"You wait for the next wave."
