blood plague

Chapter 137
The convoy set off under the leadership of Ryan, and the pickup truck was surprisingly quiet. Sure enough, after Thomas was kicked out, the whole world became quiet.

Iger was sitting in the back seat of the pickup truck. He didn't talk to Nicholas, and Nicholas didn't ask him to talk to him.

Today is Iger's first contact with Nicholas, but it doesn't mean Iger is not familiar with Nicholas.

And thanks to Phoebe.

When she was idle during the last field trip, Phoebe told Iger about and commented on those who were more prominent in the love and family team.

As a professional psychiatrist, Iger believes that Phoebe's evaluation is extremely accurate.

Iger remembers Phoebe's comment on Nicholas: "Capable and ambitious."

After saying these comments, Phoebe sighed and said: "I thought Nicholas was already a very good leader, but now it seems that he is far behind."

Phoebe said this because she compared Nicholas and Iger.

If you just look at the data for comparison, Nicholas's excellence completely beats Iger.

Whether it's his handsome appearance, muscular body, humorous conversation, or his excellent character background and complex interpersonal network, Iger is not worthy to lift Nicholas' shoes.

But in reality, Iger's ability to lead the team has surpassed Nicholas in seconds.

If Iger were the leader of the Love and Family team, Phoebe believed that they would have taken over the neighboring town long ago, why would they nest in a small house and gnaw boiled potatoes for several months in a row.

After all, what all current teams need most is the ability to actually solve problems.

Nicholas is not incompetent, let alone incapable of action, but the difference between people is first of all in thinking.

Iger looked at the sky outside the car window. Today's sky is gloomy and terrible. It is estimated that there will be a precipitation, but I don't know if it is snow or rain.

There is a tarp on the pickup truck, so simple waterproofing is no problem, but if it is raining, the rain is too heavy, and some materials that are afraid of getting wet, such as quilt covers and bullets, need to be transferred to the box truck.

Under the leadership of Ryan, the two vehicles drove steadily for more than an hour. At this time, Joanna saw the taillights of the van flashing, so she stopped slowly along with it.

"What's wrong?" Iger, who was sitting in the second row, asked Joanna.

"I don't know." Joanna didn't know why the truck stopped.

Iger opened the door and jumped out of the pickup truck. He took a few steps to the cab of the van, and Ryan had already rolled down the window.

"Hey, why did you stop?" Iger asked Ryan loudly.

Ryan leaned out, stretched out his left hand and pointed forward, and Iger followed Ryan's pointing and saw a shadow in front of him.

Shit, there is a large group of infected people blocking the road ahead.

……

……

On the other side, in the conference room of Jixi Town, the breakfast meeting has just ended.

After the field team left the field just now, it was replaced by Andy to continue the work report.

Andy is making a summary of the work situation in the past few days. From all aspects, the actual construction progress is not as good as expected.

In order to boost morale, Andy announced a decision of the board of directors. During the period from today to the end of the construction period, everyone can get an extra can reward at dinner every afternoon.

When Andy said this, everyone cheered enthusiastically.

After the meeting, looking at the beaming people going to work, Andy sighed slightly, housekeeping is really difficult.

People especially like to sigh when they are tired.

It turned out that Iger liked to sigh involuntarily, and Andy tried to persuade him that children should be more cheerful, and there is still a long way to go in life.

It turned out to be Andy himself, and now even he sighs a lot.

Housekeeping is stressful.

Andy knew very well that if Iger hadn't forcibly opened the warehouse that day, the Gospel team would definitely not be as calm as they are now.Apart from other things, the addition of these dozens of canned food every day is a big consumption.

In this meeting, Iger told all the bad news, and when he got to Andy, there was only good news left.

Of course, not all the news is good news, it's just that the not-so-good news has been suppressed.

Regarding the food theft incident, after discussing with several people yesterday, it was decided not to announce it for the time being.As far as the current situation of the team is concerned, directly breaking the news without evidence will only bring about extremely negative effects.

Old members will subconsciously think that the supplies are stolen by new members.

New members will think that there is a problem with the team management, and the old members are throwing the blame.

Team fusion is not done yet, all work is needed to keep the team from being torn apart.

What Andy is more worried about is that he is afraid that announcing the incident will bring about a broken window effect.When people know that stealing materials will not be caught, they will scramble to try to steal, which will cause even greater losses.

Sometimes pretending to be blind is a must.

Andy has his own management style. Compared with punishment, Andy prefers to use some benefits to encourage and motivate his subordinates.

Andy feels that everyone has their own shortcomings. As a team leader, it is more important to integrate the team to complete the current task, rather than being a moral judge to find fault with each subordinate.

Of course, the matter of food theft is not to be ignored, it just means that the priority of this matter should be placed after the construction of Rapid Creek Town, and Andy has a better way.

When Andy passed the digital store on the second floor just now, he saw a lot of cameras on the counter, and when Clyde was done with the fire station, he asked him to take over and start.The fire station should be powered on today, and the installation of cameras in the Morgan Building should start tomorrow at the latest.

Andy felt very tired these few days, and he felt that he had returned to the work rhythm of two films a year.

As soon as he opened his eyes every day, there were a lot of things for him to deal with, and most of them were childish, ridiculous and boring disputes.

Andy reached out and rubbed his swollen forehead.

work.

Today, I will go to places outside the commercial street to pull scrapped cars to build walls.

Andy likes to do physical work very much. It's very relaxing when you don't need to use your brain when doing physical work.

Lily is sorting out Iger's speech records, and today's episode will have big news.

What she didn't know was that this radio program would have a major impact on all survivor teams. The survivor teams gradually divided into two camps, the Fortress Faction and the Mobile Wandering Faction.

……

field team.

On the road in the distance, I saw a group of infected people in the distance. According to Ryan, this is the only way to go.

Iger took out the binoculars and observed it, and then discussed with a few team members that we should not waste time shooting guns today.The easiest way at present is to drive off the roadbed and bypass the grass next to it.

Infected people occupy the road, but the car does not have to use the road.

Afterwards, everyone got back into the car, and after finding a flat terrain, Ryan drove off the roadbed, and then the two cars bumped on the grass.

Iger, who was playing on the trampoline in the pickup truck, had a certain sense of déjà vu in his mind, how could this scene feel like it had happened before.

Although the sense of déjà vu passed in a flash, Iger slowly recalled the sense of familiarity, but he just couldn't remember why there was such a sense of déjà vu.

After the car bypassed the group of infected people, it drove for a while, and finally found a gentle slope and returned to the road.

After going forward for a while, Ryan's car stopped again. After everyone got out of the car, they saw dead bodies scattered all over the road ahead.

At this time, Iger finally remembered, isn't this the place we visited yesterday?
We actually turned around and came again.
