In the underground shopping mall, Ying Hai should have explained it to others. The smiles on everyone's faces were filled with suppressed pain. Ying Yu used a projector to play videos taken from other districts to the three children. The children were not the first.
After watching it once, they knew that the things in the picture were intangible, so they just cuddled up next to the adults and kept asking what the things in the picture were or if they could eat them.
"Mom, I want to eat that too." The child in the wheelchair pointed at the cake shop in the picture.
The child's mother held back tears and said: "Mom will do it for you from now on..."
Xu Huo stood aside and suddenly reached out and waved to the location of the video. The two mascots standing at the door of the cake shop swayed their fat bodies and walked out of the screen. They were holding large cakes with a fragrant fragrance.
This closed basement instantly turned into a lively street.
The mascot staggered over, picked up the three children and ran towards the crowd. The sky was suddenly filled with balloons of various colors. The adults walking on the street surrounded them and lifted them up to catch them and fly them.
balloons, and the passing dance team would stuff their hands with various candies and put beautiful garlands on them.
People seemed to be rushing to the celebration. After breaking away from the mascots, the three children were carried by the crowd onto a passing cartoon float. The float accompanied the performance team and tourists and slowly drove towards the center of the city, where a large inflatable float stood.
Dolls, and from time to time, aircraft with colorful cannons flying out, scattering a large number of colorful ribbons and countless candies and food!
"Mom! So much food!" The child in the wheelchair shouted as he went to catch the things that fell from high altitude. Unfortunately, his hands and pockets were limited. He and the other two friends were worrying about how to take the things away. The mascot next to the float gave
He bought them a big cart and poured a bag of sugar into it.
"Thank you, uncle!" the children said in unison, no longer caring about watching the performance, and kept picking up food along the way.
Xu Huo specifically used his actions to remind the Ying brothers. He only showed them the beginning of the "celebration" and then led them and others out. He watched the three children shouting and shouting, with sweat all over his head with excitement.
While I was happy, I couldn't bear to watch it anymore.
The old man invited Xu Huo to sit down again and said: "Jade Bird City is very big, but when we came, there was nothing left in shopping malls, supermarkets, or even granaries, so the children had a very hard life.
It was painful until Ying Hai and Ying Yu became players."
"As old as I am, I have seen the prosperity and decline of District 010, but these children have been suffering since they were born and have never had a good life..."
Not only that, it is even foreseeable that the best-case scenario for the rest of their lives is nothing more than this.
"Do you have any impression of the origin of the black thorn genetic disease?" Xu Huo asked.
The old man shook his head, "At first, I heard that it broke out in the capital, but when the news spread, everyone seemed to be infected with the disease. Someone did a study and said that a certain gene of us people in District 010 cannot adapt to the sudden change.
The environment has changed, mutations have occurred, and there is no rule of law.”
"Isn't there any news about a possible cure?" Xu Huo asked again.
The old man's face showed signs of fatigue, "It would not have spread to our ears. On the contrary, when the black thorn disease broke out, it was reported that the government robbed people for in vivo experiments. Many people were very scared, fearing that they would be caught and tested for medicine.
At that time, everyone, including me, was more afraid of hearing any news about the treatment of black thorn disease."
"Because there are not only rumors about testing drugs, but also some radicals who want to kill people with black thorn disease to prevent them from infecting others." Fan Yunhong shook his head, "I heard from my dad that it was chaotic at that time and many people died.
It’s inexplicable, and there are even some mentally unstable people who randomly kill people in the middle of the night.”
"Unexpectedly, the alien swarm came so quickly. Whether it was people who killed people or people who could only be killed, they all became food at once."
"It's both lucky and unfortunate to survive from that time." The old man finished. As a manager, he couldn't output more negative energy. He cheered up and said, "But sooner or later, people will see hope as long as they live. Ying Hai, Ying Hai
Yu has become a player, and when they become stronger, we might be able to get tickets to other districts."
Going to other districts is certainly a hope, but for those present, they may not be able to survive even if they go out. Ying Hai and Ying Yu once said some examples, people in District 010 will be squeezed out in other districts, and more people
Seeing the black thorns on their bodies will make them afraid. In order to confirm that they are not the source of infectious diseases deliberately introduced by other zones, the governments and players in other zones will strictly manage and inspect them.
At this stage, other divisions have the final say on how people behave. Maybe some divisions will be interested in their genetic diseases, or some divisions will execute them secretly just to avoid causing panic to the public.
In other words, it is not possible for them to truly live a sunny life outside of Zone 010.
"When people have limited knowledge, they will fear and reject unfamiliar things. Sooner or later, more people will know what black thorn disease is, and there will definitely be people who are willing to accept us." The old man encouraged everyone.
When Fan Yunhong heard this, his eyes wandered again, "Sooner or later...will I be able to find such a place before I die...so what if I find it, there will be no next generation anyway..."
The old man suddenly held his hand and said, "Young man, you must have hope in life!"
Fan Yunhong paused and followed his words uncertainly: "Yes, there must be hope."
The three children had fallen asleep. Xu Huo recovered the spiritual world and recorded the safe zones nearby based on the information provided by the old man. However, he had no special impression of the letters starting with CKX.
"Most of the safe areas are named with numbers... Maybe after the big safe areas disappeared, the survivors established small camps and used other names." The old man said.
In return, Xu Huo paid him a fairly generous reward and also gave him some food.
That night, the child in the wheelchair passed away in his sleep.
Xu Huo also received a reply from Dr. Deng. He didn’t know what method Mr. Dong used with “Eat Three Bowls of Rice Every Meal”. Dr. Deng’s flying fonts showed his anger and his words were very blunt, but he finally revealed
It is true that he and his colleagues came to Area 010 because of the black thorn disease.
It's just that their focus is not on the disease itself, but on figuring out the reason why this disease makes people lose their fertility. After all, it takes about thirty or forty years for the black thorns to grow to the heart. District 010 has tried to make people under twenty
Young people of 6 years old are reproducing. At this time, the black thorns have not yet grown to the lower abdomen and have not yet invaded the reproductive system.
