Zuo Mingdong thought about it carefully and felt that what Du Yue said made sense. He calmed himself down a little. “Of course, I know that you won’t do anything that you’re not confident in, but in this situation, it’s best not to take risks that involve your own safety. Also, did you see what the man in black looked like? Do you have a photo of him? I’ll arrange for someone to investigate and see who it is.”
Du Yue had forgotten to take a photo. Just as she was about to answer, she heard Xia Ju’s footsteps coming from behind. “Captain Zuo, 1 have his photo here.”
Yes, how could she have forgotten about Xia Ju? She did not even forget to record Zou Bo’s love life, let alone this serious matter. She definitely would not have neglected to capture this figure on camera.
Xia Ju took out the videos and photos that she had taken earlier and showed them to Zuo Mingdong. Du Yue also went over and took a look. The videos were a little blurry. After all, the sky was too dark and the distance was far. It was hard enough for Xia Ju to record the man with her phone in a hurry.
Zuo Mingdong took out his phone and sent the videos and photos to himself. “I’ll arrange for someone to investigate as soon as possible. You guys have to be careful during this period of time. Also, you should hurry up and bring the speakers outside back in. Otherwise, the more people you attract, the more dangerous it’ll be for you.”
In fact, even if Zuo Mingdong did not remind them, Du Yue understood the logic behind it. Du Yue thought for a moment and suddenly thought of a good idea. “Everyone’s emotions have been suppressed for too long. Captain Zuo, why don’t you bring the speakers to your camp? Playing songs for everyone regularly and letting them square dance can not only be good exercise but can also give them something to do. It’s the best of both worlds.”
Zuo Mingdong had never thought about this before, but after Du Yue’s reminder, he felt that this idea was quite good. Ever since the Eternal Night descended, most people’s work and rest schedules became more and more chaotic. In turn, their health was getting worse. It would be great if there was a way to let them consume their energy and adjust their rest time. With that in mind, Zuo Mingdong did not reject the offer.
“I can’t take such a good sound system away for nothing. I’ll go back and discuss with everyone to see what I can give you in exchange.”
Zuo Mingdong had always been a person who was neither greedy nor possessive. Du Yue had long known this. “Sure, then you can take the speakers with you first. You can bring us the things you want to exchange next time you come.”
Zuo Mingdong pushed the speakers out of the courtyard and shouted at the group of people outside the courtyard, “Everyone, don’t stand around here. I’m going to take the speakers to the camp. If you want to continue listening to music, come with me. In the future, I’ll arrange a reasonable period of time to find someone to play songs for everyone. That way, you can dance and exercise.”
When they heard that Zuo Mingdong was going to bring the speakers to the base, most of them followed him. Within a few minutes, the vast majority of the crowd outside the courtyard had disappeared, leaving only a dozen people.
Du Yue looked at their faces one by one and soon discovered that these people who stayed behind were the group of people who had dug the hole outside their courtyard. However, there were definitely more than a dozen people who dug the hole previously. The rest of them had followed Zuo Mingdong back to the camp. The remaining people probably had not given up.
However, they just stood there with dull eyes and did not do anything overboard. Therefore, Du Yue only glanced at them before looking away. She returned to the RV with Xia Ju and He Xing.
On the first night Zuo Mingdong took the audio system away, Du Yue heard the sound of square dancing coming from the first camp. As their courtyard was very far from the camp, Du Yue could only hear some sounds in the courtyard. When she returned to the RV, she could not hear anything.
Du Yue took out her binoculars and looked in the direction of the first base’s camp. Sure enough, she saw a group of people dancing happily in the dark. She could not help but be excited. “It seems that my idea is not bad. It not only solved our troubles but also enriched these people’s spare time and allowed them to exercise.”
“But they might not appreciate your kindness,” Xia Ju said leisurely.
Du Yue thought about it carefully and felt that what Xia Ju said made sense. In fact, whether it was those people who were dancing or those who were watching the show, they probably would not thank her. On the contrary, most people might hate her because of this. They could not even solve the basic problem of food and clothing, but Du Yue casually took out a big sound system for them to use. With this comparison, it would be strange if those people did not hate her..
