Chapter 25: Sinking Down 3
She keeps staring at us, why?
Because we have something to eat in our backpacks? Or because we kill people in front of them? Or because we use violence to illustrate our understanding of those so-called survival? I don't know, these questions are not important, the most important thing is:
She is looking at us, who do we look like in her eyes?
But I didn't expect that anyone was still alive.
Just when I was thinking about what she was going to say, she spoke.
"Thank you," she said to the three of us so sincerely.
I haven't heard such words for a long, long time. At this moment, I am staring at her, staring at her grateful mood. Perhaps, without our help, they will live a very painful life. But this result is only for some people.
It was just deliberately organized. I have realized that this was directed and performed by that organization.
Every time I see ordinary people making such expressions, I become more and more excited. I have not abandoned my own heart, but at the same time I have made changes to cater to others. I have not forgotten what Lao Liu said, he said not to live for other people.
. And Lao Lan and Wei Lao taught me to be willing to help others and not to be selfish. Is this a contradiction? In the end, I separated from Lao Liu. He had his reasons, he had his own reasons for survival, and he was right.
what about me?
I looked into the girl's eyes. Sometimes they were as clear as the blue coastline, and sometimes they were like the gray sky filled with ashes and depression. Is this my reflection? Why did I see in her eyes not her sincere thanks? But my conflicted heart?
?
"Hey! Boy, are you still thinking of love words?"
Finally, I recovered from Lao Lan's words. When I came back to my senses, I watched the group of people return to the store in the subway station, each of them silently packing away their belongings and other items.
The part that doesn't belong to you.
This is really suitable for people to live for a long time, I thought to myself.
"Why not?" I replied tentatively.
"Hahahaha! Look at your personality!" Lao Lan and Wei Lao laughed at me in a funny way. They looked at the serious look on my face and couldn't help laughing loudly. Of course, I wasn't serious, no one would care.
Except for idiots who make silly jokes at this special moment.
But they are complete idiots.
"You really like her"?
"You are embarrassing me, man, I really want to find a crack in the ground to crawl into!" I curled my lips and said as I looked at the girl's leaving back.
"But you are already an adult! This is fate, otherwise I would still want to go up and talk to you?" Lao Lan beat the beat triumphantly, as if singing a ditty in his heart.
"Don't try to trick me with your way of thinking. I don't want to be embarrassed anymore."
"That's the love of the future!" Lao Lan raised her voice.
"That's just an ordinary girl." I looked at the girl's back with interest, but apart from being ordinary, there was nothing that attracted me.
"It's an opportunity, but you didn't take advantage of it."
"You too." I raised my middle finger towards Lao Lan, who just smiled and patted me on the shoulder.
Finally, I cleaned up the area and found that there was more or less food and resources here. These precious foods can feed 10 people for 4 days, allowing a small community to live. But I don’t want to stay here.
To be honest, I don't think the reason why this city is blocked is because of some inexplicable chip. It's not so much a blockade, but a blockade of the first news. The food here is not completely consumed. I looked at the food reserves here, and there are a lot of them.
Most food is bought from convenience stores under subway stations. Many convenience stores have also been converted into people's collective residences and kitchens.
So I circled this location on the map and looked forward to the arrival of the shop owner. However, right now, what we are looking for is a subway tram. We need a car to shuttle between underground lines and various areas of the city, so
It can make it easier for us to transport supplies and run. I can’t believe the size of this city now. It can be said to be the largest in the world. You would never have imagined how painful it would be to walk from one end of the city to the other end of the city.
Apart from the beautiful scenery here, all that will be left in your mind are the mottled cement roads and endless queues of vehicles.
But it's different here, it's pitch black and you can't see anything.
There are many light rail trams, but I never expected that there would be one parked here, which is why we came here. Since the explosion, all the subway lines in the center of the city have been paralyzed, and many major thoroughfares have been destroyed. Not to mention
The same goes for the subway, and even the land. To be honest, blowing up the bridge is not good news, but the most stingy thing is that we can't even see a boat, let alone cross the artificial river.
But I saw the light rail tram here. This is an ordinary light rail tram, and it is staying quietly on the track.
The three of us came to the subway platform, and the first thing we saw was it. And the white clown who was particularly conspicuous in the dark. He was still wearing a white suit, and he still had a weird clown mask on his face. I don't think this is some kind of fashion.
, and I don’t understand the meaning of dressing like this. What is the reason that makes it so difficult for him to meet people? What is his plan?
I saw him again, and then I spoke.
"You knew we were coming here..."
"I can't let you drive a tram around the city. It's too dangerous for us," he said coldly, as if his eyes were completely focused on me. I guess it wasn't because I was the first to speak out.
s reason.
"Then you haven't found that damn chip yet?" I met his cold gaze and walked up.
"How ironic"! He replied angrily, "Knowing too much is not a good thing for you."
"That means I guessed it right, but there is absolutely no need for you to do this."
"In order to seal off the entire city, remember"? The clown pointed at my wound and said: "Time will only drag on longer and longer. This is not top secret information. If the chip falls into the hands of anyone, the consequences for you will not be as simple as a missile.
”.
When I heard this, I frowned. "What did you say?"
"I don't want to say too much, kid." The clown man looked at me viciously, his eyes full of anger, as if I was the one who killed his father. He walked towards me, and finally passed me by.
And go.
"Stay still, it's best not to go anywhere!" He said this harshly, then held up something like a signal transmitter in his hand, and pressed it with his back to me in a demonstrative way.
I watched him press it down. Then, the light rail car behind us exploded without warning. Bright fire and deafening explosions burst out at the same time. The three of us also closed our eyes and squatted half-way.
I managed to avoid the splash of debris and even found it difficult to stand on my feet. When the echo of the explosion was still echoing in my ears, I turned my head and saw half of the light rail tram emitting black smoke. Its first
One carriage was paralyzed, with sparks bouncing on it from time to time, and the pitch-black iron sheet was severely twisted and peeled off. The remaining carriages were still lying quietly on the track without any movement.
"You lunatic"! I rushed up and grabbed his shoulders. I couldn't accept his taunt. He actually stopped us from going to Dongcheng District in this way. Who would have expected that there would be a bomb in the car?
?We have no idea who this person is. Even I just thought that he was simply searching for the chip as a member of the United Council. But this group of people is so determined to find the chip that they limit the access of any party.
Action force.
He flicked my palm away with great force.
The clown turned his head slightly, glanced at me, and said coldly: "We don't have time."
But I can't understand, I can't let him - at least I can't let this organization continue to search so blindly. For us ordinary citizens, the longer they search, the longer the city will be blocked. In the end, we will all suffer from lack of
resources and starved to death.
So I stopped him and wanted to stop his behavior. But what I never expected was that he was extremely angry at my behavior and even attacked me. I saw him resisting me.
He grabbed his left hand and threw me around hard. His strength was so strong, to be honest, this was not the strength that a normal person should have at all. He grabbed me as if he were grabbing the air, very easily
He picked me up, then made me spin half a circle in the air, and finally threw me out. I felt like I was flying in the air for two seconds, and then I hit the tram glass hard.
There was a muffled "boom" sound, and I hit the tram hard. I clung to the solid glass of the rail tram, and finally slid down to the track in embarrassment.
Lao Lan and Wei Lao watched helplessly as I flew to the side, but they didn't dare to move at all.
I climbed up to the platform with difficulty and watched the clown disappear from my confused sight. He was like a ghost, disappearing from my eyes without warning. The three of us looked at the black smoke still rising in front of us.
Chapter completed!
