Chapter 79 - 79 The Base’s Rescue Missions79 The Base’s Rescue Missions
Du Yue was in no hurry to express her opinion after listening to He Xing’s explanation. After sorting out the words in her mind, Du Yue asked, “If I join the rescue missions, do I have to listen to the command of the base officials?” If that was the case, Du Yue was not willing to participate. In the apocalyptic world, she trusted no one but herself. She could not take the risk of letting a stranger command her.
“No need.” He Xing smiled. “What you’re worried about won’t happen. You don’t want to be led by the nose, and neither do I. I wouldn’t recommend you such a job. I’ve asked around in advance. If you participate in a rescue mission, you won’t have any employment relationship with the base. Everyone will just cooperate on equal footing. Therefore, when you’re on a mission, everything is based on your own will. If you think you can save the other party, then save them. If you think it’ll endanger your own safety or there are other reasons, you can also choose not to save them.”

After spending so much time with He Xing, she realized that they had a lot in common and their thoughts were mostly the same. This unspoken understanding made her feel very relaxed and happy when she was with He Xing. “In that case, let me know if you’ve decided to participate in a mission in the future.” As for whether or not she would participate, Du Yue would have to consider it.
“No problem!” After reaching a conclusion, the two of them were in a good mood, and their faces were filled with smiles. The snow-shoveling truck drove on the road for more than two hours. Finally, they arrived at the base when the sky was completely dark. Due to the snow, the sky turned dark earlier than before. It was only about five o’clock in the afternoon, but it was already dark outside.
Spotlights were installed on the walls of the base, and the light was reflected on the white snow, allowing people to see the gate of the base clearly from far away. Due to the extremely cold weather, there were no cars lining up at the entrance of the base, and it was not as lively as usual. Except for the snow-shoveling vehicles, they were the only vehicle that was going to enter the base.
“Let’s go to the service hall first and exchange the wild boar and hares for contribution points before we go home,” He Xing said to Du Yue, who nodded in agreement.
Neither of them planned to keep the wild boar and hares. In that case, it would be better to go to the service hall and exchange them for contribution points. Du Yue drove the snow-shoveling truck to the entrance of the service hall. Perhaps it was because it was too cold or because it was getting late, but the service hall no longer had its usual lively atmosphere. It was very quiet at the moment.
He Xing got Du Yue to wait in the truck while he got out and entered the service hall. Not long after, he came out of the service hall with a few staff members. He Xing led them directly to the back of the snow-shoveling truck and untied the steel wire tied to the wild boar. It took a lot of effort to drag the wild boar into the service hall.
Not long after, He Xing walked out of the service hall, opened the door, and sat in the passenger’s seat. “Do you want to exchange these five hares for contribution points or save one or two to eat?”
Du Yue thought for a moment and shook her head. “I think we should exchange them all. I don’t want them.” She had stored a lot of meat in her space, including hare meat. Cold hare meat, spicy hare head, roasted whole hare... There were all kinds of things in her space.

“If you want to practice shooting in the future, you’ll probably need a lot of bullets.”
Du Yue wanted to give him some for free, but he cut her off before she could finish. She did not reject him. “Thank you, then.”
After their discussion, He Xing carried the five hares by their ears out of the truck with both hands. “Come with me. I’ll transfer the contribution points to your card after I’m done.” Du Yue nodded and got out of the truck with him.
The two of them walked into the service hall one after another. As soon as they entered, they felt a warm current blowing in their faces. Du Yue was slightly stunned. It was only then that she realized that the service hall had heating installed. However, it was not strange that there was heating in the service hall. This was the office of the base officials, so it was normal for the working environment to be better.
