Chapter 111
Later that night, Julia struggled to explain all the oddities in the house to the group of brothers.
Before, although they spanned more than 300 years to the next generation, but because of the zombie apocalypse, the social system was completely destroyed, there was no electricity and no other modern technology, so in fact, their living conditions have not changed fundamentally, manpower, still the first, farming, hunting...... Like the Qing Dynasty, they are still "relying on the sky to eat".
But this moment is completely different, every time Julia turns on a household appliance, it attracts four people to "Wow! β
Turn on the refrigerator β "Wow! β
Turn on the TV β "Wow! β
Turn on the water heater β "Wow"
Even turning on the gas stove is - "Wow! β
"Julia! Why does the fire pop out on its own?! β
"Julia! Why is there water coming out of this pipe?! And it's hot water! β
"Julia, why are these lights on?! What burns inside? β
"Julia, why does this box sing? How did these people get in! β
Julia turned down the volume of the TV angrily: "No one sang in it, they just recorded the singing program." β
When they heard this, they asked in unison, "What do you mean by recording?" β
Julia was so angry and funny, and if she went on like this, she wouldn't want to sleep tonight.
"Come on, don't ask why." Julia reassured them, "You see, it's really not early. A little more. Everyone's not eating, I'm going to cook some noodles, you guys, go to the bathroom and take a shower first - I've already told you how to use the water heater, remember to line up to wash! Don't scramble. β
Yinxiang said worriedly: "So many people take a bath, Julia, will they run out of water?" β
Julia couldn't help but laugh, "No, don't worry, even if it's ten times more than a hundred, it won't run out of waterβuh." Of course. Don't have water fights in there. β
After the order, Julia went into the kitchen alone, and she opened the refrigerator to see that there were eggs. There are also tomatoes and lettuce. Although it doesn't seem to be very new.
"Anyway. Fill your stomach first. Julia muttered, taking the two tubes of silver noodles in the closet.
She boiled both tubes of noodles. Julia knew everyone was hungry and lacking in nutrition. So just beat the remaining half dozen eggs in the fridge in the pan.
"Wei Mingyue, thank you very much." She silently apologized to herself in this space in her heart, "I don't know where you have gone at the moment, I hope you don't go to that zombie world - you saved us, I will always thank you." β
The noodles were cooked, Julia served them bowl by bowl, and when the tenth elder brother saw it, his saliva was about to flow out!
Yin Zhen wiped his hair, he looked at the bowl of noodles, but he was very worried: "Julia, you better save a little, cook all the noodles tonight, what will we eat tomorrow?" β
Julia held back a smile and patted Yinzhen on the shoulder: "Don't worry, just eat." We'll never go hungry again. β
The two tubes of dried noodles were eaten by them after a short time, and there was not even any noodle soup left.
Brother Ten leaned back on the sofa and touched his stomach with satisfaction: "I have never had such a good life in my life!" Even if you die, you are willing! β
When he said this, Julia was amused and sad.
It's just two cones of cheap noodles, six eggs, three slightly rotten tomatoes, and two handfuls of wilted lettuce...... Just these cheap things, these elder brothers are satisfied like this, they used to be in the elder brother's mansion, with fine clothes and fine food, how could they care about this bit of food?
Eat and drink enough, it's time to rest. Everyone made a simple allocation: the master bedroom is for the master Julia, the guest bedroom is for Yinzhen Yinxiang, and the sofa in the living room is also a soft and comfortable big bed, for the ninth and tenth elder brothers.
Fortunately, the time is still in autumn, and the quilts on the bed are enough, and everyone doesn't feel inappropriate to sleep indiscriminately.
Julia finished cleaning up the kitchen and went to look at the two in the guest bedroom.
Thirteen had fallen asleep, and he had always had his head on the pillow.
Yinzhen was still awake, as if thinking about something.
"What? Choosing a seat? Julia asked softly.
Yin Zhen shook his head, and he whispered, "My brain hasn't turned around yet." β
Julia smiled.
"It's good to suffer, but it's not good to be happy."
"Julia," Yin Zhen suddenly whispered, "Do you still blame me for Lao Lu's matter?" β
When he asked, Julia choked.
"You're still mad at me?" He looked at Julia and asked again.
Julia shook her head, "I'm not mad at you. It's me who shouldn't have scolded you. β
Coming out of the guest bedroom, Julia walked through the living room and was about to go back to her room, but she heard a low voice from Brother Jiu in the dark: "Julia......"
Julia stopped: "Ninth Master? β
After a while, she heard Brother Jiu's voice: "This time, thank you for not leaving us." β
Julia's heart warmed, and she whispered, "What did the ninth master say?" How could I have left you? A few of us are in the same place, even if we flee, we have to be together. β
"Well, I understand. Good night. β
"Good night."
Back in the room, Julia saw that the sausage named garlic was still curled up on the edge of her bed.
It looked up at her, and its expression was less hostile, and I am afraid that the dog itself was confused.
Julia walked up to the garlic head, crouched down, and looked at it, "I know you're upset, I've driven your master away." But it can't be helped, garlic, although you are not the garlic of my family, I will still like you. In the future, let's get along. β
The dog didn't bark, it purred in its throat, but it still had an unwilling expression.
Julia walked over to the table, turned on the computer, and began to look through Wei Mingyue's private records, she had to get to the bottom of this woman.
Only in this way can she successfully replace the other party and survive in this new world.
Julia stayed up until two or three o'clock in the night, and she couldn't hold it anymore. Fall asleep upside down.
This sleep was long and deep, and she hadn't slept so peacefully in a long time.
In the haze, Julia felt that someone was pushing her. She snorted and rolled over, "...... Don't bother me. β
The man had no choice but to stop.
After another unknown amount of time, Julia finally woke up.
The first time she opened her eyes, she couldn't remember where she was!
She was stunned for a long time at the curtains of embroidered bamboo, and all the things that happened yesterday came to her memory.
So, not a dream?!
It turned out to be true!
Joy flowed through her body like a stream, and Julia rolled over and sat up!
At this time. There was a knock on the door.
"Come in." Julia scratched at her unkempt hair.
It was Yinzhen who came in. He looked at Julia: "Awake?" β
Julia was still sour, she leaned down on the quilt and chirped, "What time is it?" β
"It's twelve."
"Damn!" Julia was shocked. "I've slept for so long!"
Yin Zhen said helplessly: "I called you once at ten o'clock." But you won't wake up. β
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Julia quickly grabbed her coat. "I didn't go to bed until three o'clock last night, and my brain was dizzy."
When Yinzhen saw her get up, she felt that something was wrong. He coughed and tried to retreat, but Julia called out to him.
"What time did you wake up?"
"It's past nine o'clock." Yinzhen said.
"Oh, what did you eat in the morning?" Julia asked, putting her sweater over her body.
ββ¦β¦ Didn't eat it. β
"Huh?" Julia's sweater was around her neck, and she looked at him in surprise, "Until now?!" β
Yin Zhen nodded, he was a little embarrassed: "We ...... Ahem, I don't know how to get it. Lao Jiu studied the stove for a long time, but he didn't catch fire. β
Julia smiled wryly, "I'm sorry, I was wrong...... I turned off the gas gate last night. β
Fortunately, the gas was turned off, and Julia secretly rejoiced that if she forgot to turn off the gas, they would mess around, and it would be easy to start a fire, but she didn't know how to turn it off, and then poured water on it, it would be miserable.
Dressing as fast as she could, Julia rushed into the bathroom, washed up quickly, and then came out.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." She smeared moisturizer on her face and said to the living room, "I woke up late, so you don't have anything to eat......
Brother Jiu looked depressed: "It's not your fault, it's that there is no food in this house." We searched every corner and found a few packets of instant noodles, but we didn't boil water. β
"That's all," Brother Ten pointed to the things on the coffee table, "but the more I eat, the hungrier I get." β
Julia looked down and saw that it was a bag of Alpine toffee.
"Well, can you wait a little longer?" She said, "I'm going to go downstairs and buy something to eat." β
When several elder brothers heard this, they stood up one after another: "Let's go too!" β
Julia smiled bitterly, "No, you guys going out like this will scare others." β
"Why can't we do this?" Yinxiang looked at the others in confusion, "Except for the tenth brother, we don't have braids." β
"I'm going! Go! When the tenth elder brother heard this, he said arrogantly, "What if you have braids?" Hum! Is it impossible to see people with braids? β
"It's not just braids that don't look good, but people like you who have a full face and a beard can't see anyone." Julia patiently said, "You forgot? What did people think of us at the subway station last night? They all treat us like monsters. β
Julia is right, these brothers haven't taken good care of themselves since they left Wal-Mart, each of them has a messy beard, plus short hair cut out with poor craftsmanship, plus old clothes that are casually mixed and matched because of farm work, splashed with mud and stains...... If it's dirty and smelly, it's no different from the beggar on the street.
"It's nothing to be treated as a monster, the world is very open, and it's a personal favorite to wear clothes and hats. The problem is that the police may think that something is wrong with us, and they will come forward to interrogate you - you don't even have identification, how can you answer people's cross-examination? β
"Police?"
"In your words, it is the servant of the yamen." Julia explained, "The man in black last night was a police officer, and I lied to him. We can't afford to risk this kind of thing anymore! β
Brother Ten looked nervous: "You mean...... They're going to arrest us and put us in jail?! β
Now, several elder brothers were all frightened! (To be continued......)
