girl knight zero

Chapter 177 Nursing Home

"People say it's called Cang Ling, but you still ask!" Ke Dun glared at Bella.

"Are you the class deputy? Nice to meet you." Cang Ling opened the backpack and handed over the documents.

Bella took the notice and read it carefully before she believed that Cang Ling was indeed the new knight who had come to take up his post.

"Little girl, what do you want to come to our ghost place?" Bella sighed.

"Shut up!" Cotton kicked Bella away, leaned forward and said, "Our place is a bit remote and cold, but it's absolutely safe. The night devils never come here."

"Roe deer and wild dogs don't come here," the young man added.

"Here comes the cumin treat." Bella pouted.

"Excuse me...are you the only three here?" Cang Ling looked around and asked.

"And three horses and four sheep."

"No, I mean are you all here? Don't you need to go out to patrol?"

Hearing this, Ke Dun and the others looked at each other, and then burst out laughing.

"What are you patrolling! Except for us, there are only goshawks flying in the sky."

"That's right, it's so cold outside, if you freeze to death outside, no one will know."

"But, isn't it required to patrol the jurisdiction every day?"

"We are an exception here. If we don't patrol, no one will say anything."

"Yeah, no one saw you when you patrolled, let alone any credit."

"Hey, what nonsense are you two talking about? Although we live in a remote place, we can't give up on ourselves." Bella picked up the kitchen knife and said, "Come on, newcomer. Let's pick pickles with me!"

"Pickled, pickled pickles?"

"Yes, self-reliance and self-sufficiency. Pickling pickles and making sausages are also one of our daily jobs."

"...The laundry and cleaning are also your responsibility, right?"

"That's right, everyone takes turns to arrange shifts, one person for a week."

"What about the training? Who is in charge of the arrangements?"

"Training?" All three people in the room showed confused expressions.

"Don't you usually train?"

"It... occasionally lifts dumbbells and does push-ups." Cotton said evasively.

"This is indeed a place that was abandoned..." Cang Ling lowered his head in despair.

"Don't say that, Zero!" Ke Dun slapped Cang Ling on the back, "As long as we stay here, we are making a contribution!"

"Yes, yes, defending the country and guarding the border." The young man hurriedly said.

"Can you show me the schedule?"

"There's nothing like that here."

"Then... what about the schedule?"

"nor."

"..."

"Relax and take it easy." Cotton said, "There are very few things here, so you can just treat this as your home."

"Don't pay attention to that slacker." Bella hugged Cang Ling, "I can see that you are a hardworking girl, I like it. Come on, help me cut pickles! There is a big basket to be cut."

Cang Ling looked at Bella, then at the others, and nodded gloomily.

In the evening, Ke Dun and Bella cooked a table of delicious dishes to entertain Cang Ling and welcome her.

While everyone was eating and chatting, Cang Ling found out the basic situation of the class.

Cotton and Bella are a couple, both 48 years old. They were transferred from the Tyndall team to the Langevin team 7 years ago and have been here for 6 years.The brown-haired guy is Dave, 19 years old, and he's here for a raise, and he's less than a year old.

The supplies at the station are delivered once a week by the detachment, and the postman only comes once a month. If there is an emergency, it can only be notified by signal flares.

As for patrols and training, they don’t exist at all. Everyone sleeps until the sun rises every day, and when they wake up, they cook, play chess, knit sweaters, read novels, watch the sky, and stare blankly...

It's almost like a nursing home.

Because the days are boring, everyone is very fresh and enthusiastic about Cang Ling. Not only did they give her a separate bedroom, but they also gave her many blankets, scarves, woolen pants, fur boots and so on.

"We don't have anything else here, but more rooms." Cotton opened the bedroom door and said, "At the beginning, the base was built according to the specification of 30 people, and there were also infirmaries and watchtowers. But in history, at most, only people lived here. 6 people."

Cang Ling walked into the bedroom to have a look, and found that it had been neatly tidied up.

The bed is a single bed, not a bunk bed, covered with a thick quilt and woolen blanket.

There was a pot of plastic flowers on the bedside table, and there was a small candy box with a few milk candies in it.

There were wardrobes and chests of drawers against the walls, and a small desk under the window with paper and pens and some books.

Cang Ling's eyes lit up, and he hurried over to pick up the book to have a look. He saw a few books: "The Countess and Her Lover", "The Princess' Secret", "The Secret History of the Paladin and the Princess", "A Difficult Heart" Certainly".

Cang Ling put down the book with black lines all over his face.

"There's hot water and a heater here." Cotton pointed to the corner of the wall and said, "If you feel cold, you can light a fire."

"Okay, thank you." Cang Ling put his luggage down.

Early the next morning, Cang Ling got up at 6 o'clock as usual, and then went out for a run.

Dave was just up when she came back sweating from a run.

"Zero, what are you doing?" Dave looked surprised.

"Run." Cang Ling picked up a towel and wiped his face.

"Running? So early?"

"It's still early? It's time to go on patrol at this point."

"Haha, I was just like you when I first came here. I couldn't help moving around, but then I became lazy." Dave laughed.

"If you don't exercise all the time, your body will get rusty." Cang Ling went to take a bath after finishing speaking.

"She shouldn't last for a few days." At this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside the window.

Dave looked back and saw Bella lying on the windowsill.

"Want to eat sausage?" Bella pointed to the sausage hanging from the eaves.

"Okay! Fry some more sweet and sour eggs!" Dave immediately got excited.

When Cang Ling came out of the bathroom, a hot breakfast was ready.

When Ke Dun heard about Cang Ling's running, he persuaded Cang Ling not to run: "The altitude here is high, the air is thin, and it is easy to lack oxygen when you exercise, which is not good for your health."

"It's okay, I feel fine." Cang Ling replied.

"Hey, be careful when you get old and get sick."

"Mind yourself, old man!" Bella hit Coton on the head with a fork, "Your lumbar disc is about to fly out!"

"My lumbar disc is much better than your bellows nose."

"I have rhinitis! You beriberi man!"

"You still have corns!"

Cotton and Bella leave the table and fight together.

Dave didn't care, he just focused on eating his own food, obviously he was used to it.

Cang Ling looked at the squad leader and his wife who were making a mess, and felt as if he saw the middle-aged version of Connie and Hume.

"Did I make a wrong decision?" Cang Ling thought depressedly.
