The supplies allocated by the Red Cross headquarters will arrive in Lacas by air two days later, while the rescue operation to the village of Tovar prepared by the Red Cross hospital will begin early on the morning of the third day.

In the past two days, Li Xiaodong's job is to assist Molia in organizing the scheduling of vehicles and equipment, recruiting guards to escort the convoy and other preparatory work, although the affairs are complicated, Li Xiaodong does not feel difficult to deal with, and he can always handle the tasks assigned by Molia.

Sometimes Molia even wondered why this Oriental assistant, who had a little personal conflict with her, who seemed to be slow and even a little quiet, could be so efficient? He had almost never been exposed to these matters before, but he was able to do it well, even better than she had imagined.

Molia finally came up with a few labels to describe the assistant: smart, focused, hardworking, and capable, but this guy is a bully, he does whatever he wants, he is more honest than the other volunteers, he seems to have no personality, and he seems to be a little weak.

It's okay, at least weak people don't complain, they obey any instructions from their superiors, she thought.

That afternoon, after seeing off the Red Cross headquarters personnel who had delivered the supplies, Molia smiled and went to the warehouse where the supplies were stored.

Bruce, Lewis and a few other able-bodied volunteers were sitting at the gate of the warehouse, drinking beer and chatting and laughing.

In fact, Molia can't ask too much of them, after all, most of the volunteers are unpaid, and they only come here to work with enthusiasm, so Molia is not dissatisfied with these volunteer partners drinking or doing other things at work, she has long been used to this.

Seeing Molia coming, Lewis immediately stood up and whistled excitedly, "Look, that's Miss Moria, what a charming Miss Universe, she's coming to visit us!"

Several people immediately became enthusiastic, and they surrounded them with smiles on their faces, and one of them even pulled open a can of beer and handed it to Moria.

Molia would not be seen, she happily had a drink with her friends, and then took the opportunity to chat with them about work.

Her biggest fear now is that she will be accompanied by a few fellow volunteers who will be willing to travel to the dangerous village of Tovar tomorrow.

"Miss Moria, I heard that this dangerous mission will be carried out by you, a charming lady, and that you will lead the convoy to the village of Tovar yourself?" asked a black man.

"That's right, my dear brother Polly, if you don't mind taking the risk, you can go with me, in fact I need you very much. Molia said.

"I have a question, Miss Moria. In fact we are not afraid of danger, you know, most of us men have responded to your call to come to this chaotic city full of marches, arson, and looting every day, we are not afraid of danger, we are willing to go with you to the village of Tovar, but we all have one expectation, if we are faithful to your side and serve you at all times, my charming Miss Moria, can you give us a precious, fair, opportunity to pursue you? Would you like to date us men, I mean alone. ”

The tall and handsome Englishman named Bruce asked earnestly.

When he said this, the others all chimed in excitedly, as if to speak their minds, who, like Bruce, had been hoping to be favored by Miss Moria, or at least to give them a chance to go on a one-man date.

Molia understands that this is no longer the time to use various reasons to euphemistically shirk as before, and if she disappoints them now, it is equivalent to losing many helpers.

She held up the beer can and touched them, "If gentlemen don't mind, I'd like to invite you to the pub tonight to wish us a happy ending to tomorrow's perilous journey, and then after tonight I'll be honored to accept your invitation, and I'm more than happy to date you." After a pause, she smiled charmingly, held up the beer can again, and said, "When I say dating, I also mean dating alone." ”

When Bruce and the others heard this, it was like a heavenly sound, and they immediately cheered, and they all slammed the beer cans in their hands together.

The atmosphere was warm, the enthusiasm was also mobilized, and seeing that they all showed excitement one by one, Molia felt that the trouble she was worried about was gone, and she sighed softly in her heart.

It's a pity that in such a warm atmosphere, she looked left and right, but she never found Li Xiaodong's existence.

After taking another sip of beer, she finally couldn't help it, and Molia asked, "Gentlemen, isn't my Oriental assistant, Mr. Li Xiaodong, here?"

The black man named Polly pouted, "Why is he not there?" He is like an uninteresting, tireless, even unsociable monster, he is in the cabinet of the wagon, and he has been counting the supplies over and over again, and these materials are obviously accompanied by the original list, but he just thinks it is inaccurate, and has to recount it. What's the point of that, my dear Miss Molia, that even if there were errors in the original list, would the Red Cross headquarters fill in the errors?"

"Polly was right, that guy was a monster, and we invited him over for a drink, and he said no, he obviously didn't want to be with us. ”

"Chinese people are hillbillies, they would rather waste their energy doing meaningless things than sit down and chat with us, they are like machines, they have no interest in life. ”

After hearing this, Molia searched for the trucks parked in the warehouse, and she saw Li Xiaodong's figure, which happened to jump down from the container compartment, and then climbed into the cabinet of another truck with a record book.

Oh, my dear assistant sir, I didn't expect you to be so serious, you always refresh me.

She turned her head and euphemistically explained: "Ladies and gentlemen, I have to say that Mr. Xiaodong's work is not meaningless, he has given us accurate figures, and we can at least make more accurate predictions, such as how many people's stomachs can be filled with this batch of food and medicine, and how many injuries and diseases can be treated." ”

As soon as Molia said this, everyone was speechless.

However, having nothing to say does not mean that they approve of Li Xiaodong, on the contrary, they feel more uncomfortable.
