Dong Xie had booked the restaurant and cake a month ago. Although he did not expect a huge change, he felt that it was still meaningful to celebrate A Ning's birthday at this critical moment.
"Isn't it...?"
Dong Ning herself had forgotten her birthday, not to mention that she had been running for survival in the recent situation. She never thought that her brother would still remember her birthday. Today, her brother had taken her out for dinner, but she didn't think so much. She didn't expect...
…
The cake was brought up by the clerk, and candles were already placed on it.
"Make a wish!"
Dong Xie smiled and said, "There is no need to say it."
The cake chosen was Ah Ning’s favorite tiramisu. Ever since he was very young, Dong Xie had always wondered why his sweet-toothed sister could never gain weight, and she remembered her favorite sweets very well.
"Um!"
Ah Ning looked at the cake in front of her and the candles on it, and couldn't help but have mixed feelings in her heart. This year's birthday is so special. Without her brother, she might have died in that building long ago.
"Brother... let's celebrate our birthdays like this every year from now on! I have no other wishes!"
Dong Xie nodded. The road ahead is still full of dangers. Fortunately, he is not alone on this road!
"Brother..." After blowing out the candle, Ah Ning's face became solemn: "I want to talk to you..."
"I don't want to talk about things related to the apartment today."
"That's the most important thing for us right now."
Dong Xie looked at Dong Ning's solemn expression, nodded, and said, "Let's talk after eating the cake, okay? Isn't it your motto not to think about troubles when tasting sweets?"
Dong Ning immediately smiled: "Well, even if tomorrow is the end of the world, I will still eat a lot of sweets!"
"But... Ah Ning, today is a special case. I have purchased a membership and a coach at the most expensive fitness club in the city. Next, we will conduct all-round physical training and learn simple fighting and self-defense techniques. The body fat rate is
It must be controlled well. We may encounter various situations in future missions with scarlet characters."
"Well, I know. When it comes to fighting training, brother, maybe you really should practice. No one knows whether you will encounter a scum like Ge Qi in the future."
"People are sometimes more terrifying than evil spirits."
After eating the cake, Dong Ning took out her mobile phone and showed Dong Xie her Tmall shopping cart. She planned to buy some useful tools for survival, including but not limited to compasses, walkie-talkies, windproof lighters, Nanfu batteries, and light sticks.
, saber, windproof raincoat, hiking boots, sleeping bag... In the future, Scarlet may go to various environments, and she must be fully prepared.
"what do you think?"
"It's very complete..."
"Really? We are not short of money now, so of course we have to buy everything. Take a look, what else is missing? If not, I will place the order. Of course, the delivery address cannot be an apartment, so let the courier leave it where we are.
Just use the express locker in the community where you live.”
"I can't seem to put some things in the locker... It seems I have to go back to pick up the express delivery... Hmm, why are there still cosmetics?"
"Well, last night I was shopping on Taobao and saw Li Jiaqi and Wei Ya's live broadcast... Even in this situation, I can't live without cosmetics! Anyway, I'm not short of money..."
"..."
"Brother, in fact, the windbreaker on Double 11 this year is really good. I originally added it to the shopping cart, but at that time you insisted that you don't need it. There are discounts at Christmas, so why not buy it for you?"
Ah Ning is still Ah Ning. Dong Xie is very pleased. One of her greatest strengths is that she is optimistic and open-minded and will not be easily knocked down.
"Cosmetics... you can do whatever you want."
Then... they started discussing business.
"Yesterday I tried to live broadcast inside the apartment." Dong Ning's expression became serious at this time: "Sure enough... the barrage said that no pictures could be seen at all. The photos and videos I took in the apartment could not be uploaded.
Once uploaded to the cloud disk, it will be automatically deleted immediately. Later, I tried to live broadcast outdoors, but I was afraid that someone would see it outside the apartment and find it. If...it would be troublesome."
"Well...it's exactly what Mo Yuan said."
"I checked the satellite panorama of Baidu Maps, overlooking the community where the apartment is located. The location of the apartment shows that there is a dead end behind the alley that enters the apartment. The wall that surrounds the apartment is a fully enclosed wall structure.
.I tried to climb out from the inside of the wall facing the apartment, and then I couldn’t see the apartment at all from the other side of the wall.”
"Hmm...it feels the same as Platform Nine and Three-Quarters. Damn it, it's better to enter a magic school like Hogwarts like Harry Potter. What if...destroy the wall?"
"I asked Mo Yuan. This apartment area is very strange. There have been demolitions in the old city nearby, but this community has never been included in the demolition scope. As for the walls, Mo Yuan has tried it before. If it is destroyed in the apartment, it will automatically recover quickly.
, if you destroy it on the other side, you can only see the alley on one side of the destroyed wall. Moreover, it will automatically recover quickly."
"Speaking of which, there are very few residents in this community itself..."
"I checked this area and found that it was still farmland in the 1990s. This community was later rebuilt as husband's housing. I don't know how people entered the apartment in the 1990s. Judging from the blood-written records, the batch of apartments that were built 8 years ago
Residents have confirmed that the apartments have been in existence since the 1960s."
Speaking of which, all the residents in the apartment are from outside the community. There are only a handful of residents living in this community. They don't seem to be close to that alley. Yesterday, I stopped a person in the community and asked him.
It seems like he doesn’t know what’s going on. The apartment seems to only accept residents from outside the apartment area.”
There are too many mysteries about the apartment. There are no real estate properties in this apartment area. There is not even a security guard at the door. Some normal apartments inside are even abandoned buildings with no people. Many residents try to expose the information of the apartment on the Internet.
All failed, and only some photos of evil spirits appearing near the apartment survived, the ones Dong Xie found on the Ty forum.
"That's not all I want to say."
Dong Ning continued: "In yesterday's meeting, regarding the question you asked, when I mentioned the 'falling into hell' in the Scarlet Mission, I felt that Mo Yuan's expression was unnatural."
Dong Xie was stunned when he heard this.
"Have it?"
"Absolutely!"
Dong Xie must admit that in terms of carefulness and observation, he is definitely not as good as A Ning.
"You mean... Mo Yuan is hiding something from us?"
