Just when Ji Shanqing's body was sweating and a scream was about to blurt out, he saw a shadow suddenly appeared behind the man in front of him, and then something rose high in the darkness, and the figure seemed to be struck with a knife.
On the speaker’s neck.≧
"Ahhhh——"
A high-pitched scream that was a bit painful and a bit hysterical immediately echoed in the corridor; feeling the person in front of him fall down, Ji Shanqing was covered in cold sweat, turned around and was about to run, but was heard by a "
Come back!" He shouted.
"Sister...sister?" Libao stopped, turned around and asked tremblingly.
A bright silver light suddenly lit up, illuminating Lin Sanjiu's tense face. She said "Go on", then raised her hand, and the little glowing thing moved towards Ji Shan
Qing drew a parabola.
Ji Shanqing hurriedly caught the shining [Ability Polishing Agent], lifted it up and took a look at it, then stammered and asked: "What...what's going on?"
In this small space brightened by silvery white light, just like the place we passed just now, there are large and small cardboard boxes stacked high; in front of the "wall" made of boxes, a strange woman wearing a white dress is lying on the ground.
, kept kicking her legs, twisting her body, and screaming loudly, but no matter how hard she struggled, she was still firmly stepped on by Lin Sanjiu's foot, unable to get up.
Turning his eyes again, Ji Shanqing also understood what happened just now.
Because there were so many things piled up in the corridor, people subconsciously thought that all the cardboard boxes were connected together - but from where the woman in the white dress appeared, there was a gap in the "wall" of boxes.
It just revealed the entrance to a unit behind the box.
It is said to be the entrance because the door has been dismantled and half blocked with boxes. It is hidden deep inside the cardboard wall like a mouse hole - judging from the size, it is just right for this person who is not tall and has a moderate build.
woman passes.
But when she quietly came out of this gap just now, she happened to stop between the two of them, causing Libao to mistake her for Lin Sanjiu. But as soon as she came out, she immediately noticed that something was wrong, and Lin Sanjiu, who came back, was thrown away.
Fell.
Amid the woman's constant shrieking, Lin Sanjiu seemed like she couldn't stand it any longer - she frowned, grabbed the collar of the other woman's dress and pulled her up. She yelled, "Don't scream."
Oh! Who are you? What do you mean by following us furtively?"
He didn't even expect the gift package. As soon as Lin Sanjiu said these words, the woman's cry suddenly stopped as if it had been strangled. There were still tears on her face, but she suddenly stopped crying. There was a sound coming from the trachea.
He said "ho" and his expression immediately changed to one of sudden realization.
"Ah. Ah, I know," she hurriedly wiped away the snot and tears on her face. After her facial features returned to their normal positions, her pale and dry face was revealed: "...it turns out you are just like me! No wonder you are like this
Be careful...don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person, you will be safe when you come here!"
Ji Shanqing and Lin Sanjiu looked at each other, confusion written on each other's faces.
This woman seemed to know something... After thinking about it, Ji Shanqing, who thought she looked much more approachable than Lin Sanjiu, asked in a soft voice: "Yes, we have always been scared, what did you say just now?"
The sudden appearance of his head really startled us. My sister didn’t hurt you, did she? What’s your name?”
In fact, Lin Sanjiu's blow could have killed her - but she had deliberately left some room for it, so the woman in the white dress could rub her shoulders and stamp her feet and say, "Your sister is very strong."
Big, your sister is so strong..."
After she stopped crying hysterically, her voice became sweeter again; if her skin and hair weren't so dry, she would look younger.
After Ji Shanqing waited for her to say "Your sister is very strong" five or six times in a row, she finally couldn't wait any longer. He couldn't help but reach out and hold her hand that had been holding her neck. He forced himself to smile and said, "You
What’s your name? Can you tell me why it’s safe here?”
"Ah, me," the woman in the white dress just said this, then she shut her mouth warily, and her eyes turned between the two of them. When she spoke again, her voice was very low, as if she was afraid.
As if calling someone to hear him: "...please keep your voice down, my name is Mei Duo. Although it is very safe here, don't be careless...Those things outside are really powerful...Come, come in and talk to me."
.”
What's out there? A fallen species?
Although both of them were full of doubts, Mei Duo was obviously afraid of something, and it was hard to ask anything. Seeing her crawling in from the food box like a nimble mouse, the two had no choice but to squeeze together.
Followed him to the ground.
...If Mei Duo hadn't said that this was his home, no one would have believed that there were still people living in this place filled with garbage and dust. Under the bright light of [Ability Polishing Agent], this place looked like
Hell; although Mei Duo enthusiastically asked them to sit down, even Lin Sanjiu, a person who had experienced countless things and didn't care about sanitary conditions for a long time, was still standing straight in the living room, unable to find anyone she was willing to touch.
place - not to mention the very clean Ji Shanqing.
"Scholar, scholar!" Mei Duo seemed not to be able to see the embarrassment of the two of them, and turned to the back room and shouted: "Come out quickly, we have a guest!"
Facing the gazes of Lin Sanjiu and the two of them, and saying "Oh? I'm here," they opened the door from the back room, and a middle-aged man wearing glasses slowly walked out.
This man, who is called a "scholar", wears a neat shirt with buttons tied up to his Adam's apple; if he hadn't been wearing a pair of large pants on his lower body, he would have looked a bit like a professor - he noticed the visitor's gaze.
, the scholar suddenly pulled his shirt down shyly: "Sorry, I made you laugh... Humanity is at the end of the world, and I don't care about hygiene anymore - come, I will prepare a place for you to sit."
The so-called tidying up actually meant sweeping the garbage to the other side; using the light to see clearly the stains underneath, Ji Shanqing finally sat down with a look of despair as if he had been righteous.
Mei Duo smiled happily and said: "The scholar is an amazing person. If you don't understand anything, just talk to him more and I'll cook!"
In the middle of the night, you are still cooking to entertain guests? Before Lin Sanjiu could say "no", Mei Duo had already jumped into a black door that looked like the kitchen - Ji Shanqing
His face suddenly fell.
"It's okay, let her go. You've seen it too. We don't have to worry about eating and drinking." As if he noticed what Lin Sanjiu meant, the scholar sat down and spoke. He glanced at the two of them cautiously from behind the lenses of his glasses.
The tone seemed to be a bit censorious: "Where are you from? Why did you come into our community at this time?"
Ji Shanqing rolled his eyes and responded softly: "... A relative told us a long time ago that we came to find him. But my sister and I went through so much trouble and couldn't find any relatives. We were a little flustered.
.I don’t know what to do now.”
The scholar said "Huh" and nodded, agreeing with this statement: "You are right to come here, I tell you. This is the only safe place in the world."
Before the two of them could ask, he sighed: "Oh, now it's like this. In fact, I had expected it."
"...how to say?"
"It's all because the government was too slow to respond!" The scholar slapped his thigh and said with a sigh: "...I often feel that although some people in life look ordinary, they seem to be similar to others.
But in fact, they are not normal humans at all! Maybe they are aliens, maybe they are another species, but after doing secret research for a long time, I found that they all have one thing in common - they have superpowers that we humans cannot imagine!"
Lin Sanjiu and the gift bag were stunned at the same time.
"I don't know why they disguised themselves and sneaked into the ranks of humans, but what is certain is that they have no good intentions - it's just that I made countless reports to the relevant departments, but nothing happened... What happened?
In this way, human society has really been destroyed by these monsters." The scholar shook his head and sighed. "It's too late to say anything now."
Could it be that...
Lin Sanjiu and Ji Shanqing looked at each other, both of them unable to believe it.
From the words of the scholars, it sounds like the factor that destroys this world is actually the evolver!
As long as you get a visa six months before the end of the world, evolutionaries can go to a temporarily peaceful world - but no one stipulates what rules evolvers who go to the ordinary world should abide by. If a group of evolutionaries are motivated by a certain
If they want to destroy human society for some purpose, they can indeed wipe out a small planet before the various state machines can react.
Without noticing the expressions on the two men's faces, the scholar continued: "... By the time we discovered something was wrong, society was already half-paralyzed, and countless people were dying every day... Maybe it was because it finally remembered my proposal that the country finally
We hurriedly protected the survivors in the form of residential communities, and transferred countless supplies to maintain our livelihood."
"Since you can come in, you must have seen our preventive measures outside," the scholar said, just in time to hear Meadow shouting in the kitchen, and then stood up: "——Isn't it spectacular? Wait, I
Go help her serve dinner."
The spectacular preventive measures are definitely not the glass and iron wires on the gate of the community; it is probably that the entire community is counted as an area, and some kind of military protection is set up to resist the evolvers, right?
If that's the case, I'm afraid it will take some trouble to go out...
Lin Sanjiu frowned and nodded. He was about to say something, but his thoughts were suddenly interrupted by Mei Duo, who was carrying a wooden board. She put down the wooden door panel that served as a dinner plate and said with a smile, "I'll just do whatever I want."
I’ve made some, but there’s not much, so come and eat while it’s hot!”
"Aren't you going to turn on the lights?" Lin Sanjiu asked a little doubtfully. It seemed that there was no power outage here, but several people kept talking in the dark.
"Mei Duo doesn't like to turn on the light. She has bad eyesight and thinks the light is too dazzling." The scholar responded casually, "Besides, isn't your little flashlight bright enough?"
Under the light of [Ability Polishing Agent], on the broken old dirty door panel, there was a pile of dry pancakes that had cooled and hardened. Next to it was a large bowl of freshly cooked instant noodles. The only dish was two large bags of potatoes.
Pian. Mei Duo gave everyone an empty bowl and a pair of chopsticks. The scholar immediately scooped up a large spoonful of noodle soup and grabbed a piece of dry biscuit and soaked it in the soup.
Gift Bao looked at the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, his face turned green. Even if it was just for hygiene reasons, the two of them were unwilling to eat their food - after thinking about it, Lin Sanjiu quietly called out the food he bought at Red Nautilus,
Taking advantage of the dim light, he also stuffed a piece of bread into Ji Shanqing's hand.
Originally, she was a little worried that she would be embarrassed if she was discovered, but she didn't expect that the meal went very smoothly - Mei Duo and the scholar seemed to be absent-minded, but also seemed to be focused, just lowering their heads and eating the food in their bowls quickly.
; Perhaps it was because the light was too dark. Even though his eyes fell on the bread in their hands several times, they did not realize at all that this was not the food brought out by Mei Duo.
"Which room do you plan to stay in?" After finishing his meal, the scholar asked, "There are still many vacant rooms in our community."
After hearing this, Li Bao immediately looked at the owner - Lin Sanjiu had been frowning since she finished the meal, and suddenly became a little restless for some reason; she said in a coping style, "Wait until we go out and take a look", and she immediately
stood up.
That's right, after getting the news, there is no need to stay here anymore - Ji Shanqing muttered in his heart.
The scholar also stood up and sent the two of them to the door. Just when Ji Shanqing bent down and was about to follow the master out, he suddenly felt his coat being pulled. When he looked back, the scholar and Mei Duo were both there.
Staring at him in the dim light.
"Why didn't I notice it just now? The style of your coat is really rare. You..." The scholar's lenses were shining, and his expression suddenly became gloomy. "You are not one of those monsters, are you?"
"Of course not," Li Bao was startled. He immediately heard Lin Sanjiu outside answer for him, and immediately pulled him out. "...When we find a house to stay, we will invite you to be our guests."
After hearing this, the scholar's expression seemed to relax slightly; Mei Duo silently got into the gap between the cartons, stuck his head out, and watched the two of them go away - until Ji Shanqing walked out of the building.
The door, and then I felt that the substantial gaze on my back disappeared.
He exhaled and hurriedly walked to Lin Sanjiu in two steps. He was about to ask her what to do next, but as soon as his eyes fell on her face, his words suddenly froze in his throat.
Lin Sanjiu's face was very ugly - even when she was seriously injured and on the verge of death, she had never looked so ugly.
"Shan Qing," when the two of them reached the flower bed, Lin Sanjiu stopped and said in a low voice, "Don't look back yet, listen to me."
As expected, Libao didn't look back and stood still with a natural expression.
"I suspect they are not ordinary people." Lin Sanjiu's voice was soft and disappeared into the air almost as soon as it came out.
"Aren't they ordinary people?" Ji Shanqing was a little stunned, "But they really don't have the ability..."
"This can also be explained. Because -" Lin Sanjiu suddenly breathed out heavily: "It seems that my ability can no longer be used." (To be continued.)
