Chapter 145 The First Radio Station
After Farosa got dressed and left, Xu Yang paid attention to the time. It was the day when Sally premiered. As the first appearance of the Rat Witch radio anchor, Sally was ready for any questions.
The Ratman communication station was provided by Selita and the others. The avant-garde guerrillas are currently rooted in Baixiangzhou, so the signals are mostly connected to the Ratman settlements in Baixiangzhou. There are still large towns and rural areas where the Ratmen can hide. Many Ratmen were hired illegally.
Companies in Baixiangzhou like ratmen, a fast-growing labor force. In order to cover up the facts, they, like other companies, do not recognize the existence of ratmen. The forgotten ratmen are treated cruelly and are regarded as slave labor. The basic right to life is life and death.
What Sally had to face was such a large group of Ratmen in distress. She sat in the radio room prepared for her by the industrial park, worried and prepared countless speeches.
The only mouse witch in the world, unprecedented, she thinks she has a mission.
Xu Yang and Lila were helping to test the equipment in the background.
"Will Sally's first radio communication be effective?" Xu Yang was curious.
"Urban slums, large ratman caves, labor markets, and agricultural lands all have rat settlements and corresponding communication equipment," Lila said, "there are 150 communication points. I try to spread the news in advance to remind them that the radio stations have been restarted." The fact that it was launched. According to estimates, the target audience for the first broadcast will reach 5,000 Ratmen."
"5,000, that's a big deal, but it's a pity they can't tip Sally." Xu Yang said.
"It will start in one hour." Lila looked at the radio room, and the voice of the mouse witch Sally would be heard by countless ratmen.
Under Xu Yang's instruction, Sally will focus on appeasing the tired, anxious, and furious mentality of the rat people, and guide them on how to live a better life and seek unity and progress.
In order to keep it secret, Xu Yang has adjusted the environment, and the communication address has also been forged to prevent the source address from being found out.
"First broadcast..." He looked at the time difference, it was 11 o'clock in the evening in Baixiangzhou, and the live broadcast would start at 12 o'clock, and the rat people should get off work by then.
At this time, many ratmen got the news in countless remote corners and unknown hidden areas of Baixiangzhou.
Various groups of rat people are active. They live in the dark alleys of the abandoned city and the place where the sewage is poisonous. There are three to five groups of rats. The group of rats shares a radio station, waiting for the legendary rat witch anchor to make her voice for the first time.
In the Kalebu Mountains in the north of Baixiangzhou, ratmen and human laborers were mixed together to engage in the lowest-end manual work, that is, mining.
The climate in this mining area is scorching hot, geological activities are frequent, and hydrothermal and natural gas leaks from time to time in the mine crevices, which are prone to fires, hot and humid, and mining robots are not easy to maintain. In comparison, the labor costs of humans and ratmen are even lower. .
Ratmen's activities have disappeared in all regions of the world, but in the isolated and isolated villages and mountains of Baixiangzhou, their existence is an open secret, and they are employed by the precision mining company under the Peacock-Tristan Group. Rat people reproduce quickly, are docile, and stupid. They are the most suitable labor race, and the cost is also very low.
At this time, the rat miners of the Precision Mining Company gathered quietly, retrieved the radio station left by their ancestors from the shack, plugged it with batteries, and waited quietly for the arrival of night.
Before, a human laborer went to the town to purchase, and when he came back, he talked about it to fellow rat workers. He himself heard about it from the rat man den in the town. A voice predicted that the rat witch would pass by tonight. The radio communicates to all skaven.
Shay the Grizzly, an ordinary rat miner, is among them.
Rat Witch's first public radio communication! This news made Shay feel a throbbing in his heart. It has never heard of any radio hosts, but it has heard that there are powerful witches in the world who can change reality.
Is there a witch in the rat people?
It is looking forward to the image of the mouse witch, how beautiful will it be? how powerful How amazing?
Shay's mother was exhausted yesterday, and then she was dragged away by others and thrown into the nutritional cream maker, so she arrived early at mealtime. As soon as it was time to eat, it jumped off the mining machine and stumbled to the place to get the nutrient cream. The miner's lamp was shaking on the top, reflecting thousands of tired and dusty faces. It was in the middle of the line, anxious Wait, it's his turn after a while.
Walking to the outlet of the nutrition cream, it spewed out five or six fingers of nutrition cream intermittently like peeing. It was powdery, and Xie Yi thought it was his mother.
Shay was reluctant to eat his mother, so he ran back to the corner of the mine tunnel, dug secretly under the soft soil wall, dug out a small hole, buried all the nutrient cream in his hand, and then backfilled the soil, taking pictures carefully. it is good.
Mom, take a good rest...
Because there was no food, Shay went to the mine hungry at night. At midnight, he dragged his tired body back to the shack. It was tightly blocked, and countless green eyes lit up in the darkness, staring at the radio, waiting for it to make a voice from the Rat Witch.
There are also human miners in the shack who are similar in number to them, and they are also curious to join in the fun at this time, standing a little outside the mouse pen, standing on tiptoe and listening.
"That-that, hello everyone." A stammering female voice sounded, "My name is Sally! I am the witch among the Ratmen! Welcome to my radio station!"
The rat people in the shack kept shaking and scratching their hair. Shay was also trembling all over, and immediately began to imagine the image of the cute Miss Ratman in his mind. She must not be like a pure mouse, she will have a beautiful appearance, maybe she can walk with her body upright, maybe she has a pair of huge mouse ears, maybe No.
They wanted to listen, but through the gap, the lights of the patrolling drone came on outside, Xie immediately rushed forward, and turned off the sound of the radio, all the rat people couldn't hear what the rat witch was saying, but they still Listening ignorantly, they carried out their own fantasies.
The image and lines of Sally in each Ratman's fantasy are different. They listened to the live broadcast for a full 30 minutes in silence, and enjoyed the care from the Rat Witch in silence.
The Ratmen couldn't help crying, even though they didn't actually hear anything, but they had been redeemed by the Rat Witch in fantasy, as if she had come to them through the telegraph.
Sally, take us away, Sally—
The witch among the rat people must have a vivid and bright image, and she is connected with the magical technology that the rat people can't imagine, and lives in incomparable happiness.
When the patrolling drone was far away, Shay climbed to the radio station and turned up the volume slightly. The other rats didn't stop it, but held their breath, stretched their ears, and listened to what the rat witch said.
Finally, the voice of the Rat Witch was heard again, but it was already 30 minutes later, and it was only at this time that Xie Yi began to regret that he hadn't heard the content of the program in the previous half hour.
"...Ahhh...it's okay, it's okay to say weird things, I'll still read them out! After all, I really like everyone, I want to talk to you all the time. Everyone is a very cute mouse, yes My kind!" Sally's voice sounded again.
The Ratmen had never heard such sincere words.
The rat miners in the shack looked at each other, making small squeaks, and some sobbed. The human miners next to them didn't know why they were so excited. They were drowsy, waiting for tomorrow's labor.
Shay stood among his companions, staring blankly at the radio station, and there was a heavenly sound from it, as if his mother had returned to him. Only then did he realize that there are still people who miss them, these insignificant little residents, Sally His voice was like a ray of light shining into the darkness of life.
It is such an honor that even the humble mouse with a crooked and ugly appearance can be pitied by the mouse witch bathed in holy light. The rat workers in the mine decided to listen to Sally's voice every night.
After another half an hour, the show ended, and Shay watched the radio station being turned off, contented, crying and curled up in a corner of the shack.
Tomorrow, tomorrow I will gather here too. Shay wiped away tears silently. Miss Mouse Witch, I like you so much.
It stopped sleeping, got up, groped to the side of the radio, turned on the power quietly, stared at the miniature visual interface in the dark, and knocked stubbornly.
"Shay, what the hell are you doing?" A grizzled rat man got up, and it was much smarter than the other rat men.
"I want to send a message to Miss Mouse." Shay lowered his voice, "but I can't read."
"You say, let me call, keep it short." It knew that Shay had just lost his mother before, and felt that the rat man deserved a little care today.
Shay read in a low voice, with tears still on his face, he turned all his thoughts into codes and words, and sent them to Sally's channel.
On the other side, thousands of kilometers away, in Nisto Industrial Park in Aizu City, Sally experienced a long 1-hour radio host, and had to end the first communication early.
She felt uncomfortable and extremely sick.
In the first half hour, just after she finished her self-introduction, Sally received countless insults, questioning, insults and slanders from the Ratman. The skaven on the radio were all trying to scare her off as best they could.
She was about to end her live broadcasting career after 30 minutes, but under Xu Yang's strong request, she reluctantly insisted and said something against her will—that she would respond to those weird words, that she liked everyone very much, that the rats were all so cute.
After that, she stopped receiving those black mud-like rat messages, and just talked about life and daily life casually. However, Sally was completely coping, and completely hated those strange rats in distant places.
"No rat man would like it at all, and no rat man would want to hear it." Sally complained to Xu Yang.
"There is a new message." Xu Yang suddenly noticed a change in the mailbox of the radio station.
"It must be a curse too." Sally said viciously.
"Maybe it's a compliment to you." Xu Yang said, "Why don't you open it and have a look?"
"If it's a curse, I will never communicate with them again in my life." Sally shook her ears uneasily, and she sat back in front of the radio screen with her head downcast, and opened the message.
……gaze.
long stare.
Sally opened her eyes, said nothing, and pursed her lips tightly.
