Chapter 690: Dead Or Alive ( 2 )
The researchers were ordinary people, and being hit by Pei Gan’s attack, they suffered heavy injuries. Most of them broke their bones, and 2 unlucky men died on the spot. The rest of them were coughing up blood and were on the brink of death.
Standing behind his desk, Pei Gan watched them with narrowed eyes and said, "Mobilize all the guards and search for those children. It must be them who took away the mutants. I want to see them dead or alive!"
As soon as he said these words, the guards replied in unison, "Understood."
After a moment, a woman took 2 steps closer to Pei Gan and asked, "5th Elder, what about them?"
"Since they failed in their duties, there is no need to keep them."
Hearing this, the researchers’ faces turned pale instantly. Before they were able to beg for mercy, they were gagged and dragged out by the guards. Everyone knew their ending without the need for the 5th Elder’s order.
Those who failed in their duties would become the test subjects. Their lives and deaths would depend on their fates.
While the Facility was thrown into chaos, the Phantom Team members were also busy preparing for the winter in Jinxing City.
Thanks to the Phantom Team bringing back a lot of supplies from outside, Xie Zhou and his men were able to open the base’s grocery store. While the amount was not much, the variety was a lot.
When people saw that they could buy things using points issued by the base, they were no longer skeptical, and more and more people applied for jobs.
At this moment, the Wen family was discussing the matter of creating a mercenary team in their house. Except for Wen Kai, Wen Mo, and Wen Fuhua, who went to help build the wall, the rest of the family members were present, including Lu Jiaojiao.
For someone who bore a different surname, she always felt that she was excluded from the family discussion and harbored resentment toward her maternal uncles and aunts.
"Ah Chang, have you found out the requirement to create a team?" Jia Liufei asked.
"Second aunt, I already asked around, and we need at least 3 ability-users and a total of 5 members to create a mercenary team."
Jia Liufei counted for a moment and said with joy, "Besides your mother and Jiaojiao, our family has 5 ability-users. We can create a team."
Wen Fusen turned to his wife and said, "Wife, you are not an ability-user, so it’s better for you to stay in the base. I have found some information and discovered that the base is currently hiring people. You can apply for a job."
Hearing her husband’s words, Yun Ximei hesitated for a moment before she replied, "Husband, I never worked outside and only know how to take care of the home. I don’t know if I can find a job."
As soon as she finished her words, Jia Liufei said, "Eldest sister-in-law, don’t underestimate yourself. Your cooking skills are very good. It’s even better than the chef who works at the restaurant."
"Second sister-in-law, you are overpraising me. I only know how to cook home dishes. There are more people who have better skills than I," Yun Ximei replied, embarrassedly.
Waving her hand, Jia Liufei said, "Trust me, with your skill, you can definitely find a job in the cafeteria."
After being encouraged by her sister-in-law’s words, Yun Ximei felt more confident. But thinking about the situation in the base, she said, "But I heard that the number of people hired to work at the cafeteria is limited, while the applications were more than 300 by now."
"With Ah Kai and Ah Wen’s connection, it is just a matter of words for them to secure the position for you. I will talk to them when they return," Jia Liufei said casually.
It was not a secret that her sons had a good relationship with the Base Commander.
Not to mention that her sister-in-law had good cooking skills and was more than qualified to work in the cafeteria, even if she couldn’t cook, they could still find a position for her to work there.
Seeing how confident her second sister-in-law was, Yun Ximei finally nodded and said with a smile, "Then I will have to bother Ah Kai and Ah Wen for this matter."
"Sister-in-law, we are family, and they are your nephews. It’s only right for them to help you out," Wen Fuze replied.
When they were done discussing Yun Ximei’s job, Lu Jiaojiao waited for a while, but didn’t hear her second aunt talk about her matter. Although she was unwilling to lower her head to beg for her help, she couldn’t be arrogant at this moment.
With this thought, she forced a smile and asked, "Second aunt, how about me?"
Jia Liufei never had a good impression of this niece. So when she heard her words, she pretended to be dumb and asked back, "What about you?"
Clenching her fists, Lu Jiaojiao replied, "Second aunt, I also need a job. Can you ask my cousin to arrange a job for me, too?"
Hearing this, Jia Liufei scrutinized her for a moment before she asked, "Do you have any skills?"
Lu Jiaojiao was a fresh graduate university student. During her university life, she mostly spent time hanging out with her friends and squandering her father’s money.
Not to mention having any skill, she even needed to bribe some people to graduate and get her diploma. So when she was asked, she couldn’t think of anything.
Seeing her like this, Jia Liufei shook her head and said, "Jiaojiao, it’s not that your second aunt doesn’t want to help you."
"Even if we want to use our connection to get you a job, you still need to have enough skills. Otherwise, people will definitely cause trouble, and you won’t be able to keep your job even after you get it."
Wen Chang noticed that his cousin’s face darkened and that hatred flashed in her eyes. Seeing this, he narrowed his eyes and said, "Actually, as long as Jiaojiao is willing to work, she can find a job."
