Chapter 113 Good intentions are not rewarded
After a safe night, An Qitong slept well, and when he came down from the attic, he saw Niu Ben with a resentful face and Feng Yang with a helpless face, sitting stupidly on the table next to the bed.
"What's wrong with you?"
An Qitong asked puzzled, unscrewed a bottle of water, and took a few sips.
"Sister An, you didn't tell me last night, what is there really out there? I thought about it all night, but I couldn't figure it out, but you said that this thing is very common and is around everyone, but I can't guess it. ”
Niu Ben stood up and flatteringly handed An Qitong a bowl of steaming noodles, although the clear soup was watery, it was rare that there was still a beaten egg.
"It's hard for you to understand what you're telling now, so let's wait until you find out for yourself later."
An Qitong took it, sat on the chair before Niu Ben, and said after looking at Niu Ben. After she had eaten two bites, she remembered to ask the two if they had eaten.
"Have you eaten yet?"
"After eating, Sister An, also, Master Yun has already come, seeing that you are still resting, he said that he would leave at 10 o'clock in the morning, and now he has two hours to prepare, he asked Sister An if she needed a weapon, and sent us some."
Feng Yang stood up and opened a large bag on the ground behind him, and An Qitong saw some steel pipes, knives and the like.
"Don't you have a gun here?"
An Qitong glanced at it, as if he didn't have what he wanted to use, like the dagger he saw last night, it was very suitable, but he also knew that it was something for the little couple of people. Of course, it is impossible to give it to yourself.
"Guns? Sister An has ever seen a gun? We are all ordinary people, how can we have guns? ”
Niu Ben looked at An Qitong in surprise.
"Well, I've seen it, I've used it, my former companion and I found a public security bureau building and took it from the weapons depot, but it also cost us."
An Qitong's voice was a little low, those bad memories, she could only use them as motivation to remind herself. Just remember. She'll know what she wants and how to do it.
"Sister An, your story must be very exciting, don't worry. I will definitely follow you well with Feng Yang. We will do whatever you tell us to do. ”
Niu Ben excitedly poked the somewhat stunned maple poplar. He gestured to indicate it.
"Okay, I see, I'm still the same. Just don't do anything that disgusts me. Also, although you call me Sister An, I don't want you to really obey me unconditionally like a little brother, you can do what you want, we are companions, comrades-in-arms who experience life and death together, understand? ”
An Qitong smiled, if Niu Ben's temperament met Xiao Dapeng, he would definitely talk about it.
After laughing for a while, An Qitong decided to go to Yunlei by herself to see if she wanted to discuss something, and besides, she didn't have anything to prepare, just asked Niu Ben to bring some food and water.
After Wagyu Benfeng Yang came out of the security room, the scene in the villa area was much clearer than at night. The main thing is that she met a lot of survivors.
"Are these people just a bunch of ordinary people? What are they going to do? ”
Looking at the group of people in rags, their faces were even more sallow, and they knew that they were malnourished at a glance, except that most of them were holding something similar to a bowl and walking in one direction. Others, sitting expressionlessly, looking at the people passing by, looked numb.
"Oh, they're going to get breakfast. Our base provides two meals a day, on the condition that you collect them with your base's work card. ”
Niu Ben explained, looking like he had already seen it.
"Work card? What is that? ”
It's the first time An Qitong has heard of this kind of thing, in the base managed by the armed police, it seems that there is no food that can be received, and she thinks that everyone is on their own, and the armed police are just providing a safe environment.
In this way, the base managed by Yunlei is still quite humane, and it still maintains the basic kindness and friendliness of human beings.
"Sister An, the work card is a proof of treatment, our base will send people out to collect materials every day, led by capable people under Boss Yun, of course, capable people are a minority after all, and most ordinary people need to join. As long as these ordinary people can come back alive, they will get a work card, with which they can receive supplies, and those with family members can also receive free food. ”
Niu Ben continued to explain.
"Do you mean that these people who have work cards, or their family members, have participated in your daily outings and come back alive? And what about these people sitting on the side of the road? ”
An Qitong looked at those numb people, there was no hope in his eyes, a woman with a child who was only about 6 years old, her body was very dirty, but she looked fine, and she was carrying a large cloth bag, I don't know what it was used for. The woman just looked in the direction of the gate of the villa area, without blinking her eyes. The originally numb look on her face suddenly became bright when she saw someone coming in from outside the door, but the next second it turned into disappointment, and then numbness again.
"Yes, they are much better off than those who are incapacitated, old, sick and disabled, and at least they can eat every day. The people who sit on the side of the road are some people who are incapable and in poor health, or they are old, or they have children, and those who can go out to participate in the mission at home, they all go out, as long as they don't come back, these people sit here and wait, and if they don't come back alive, then their fate can only be to wait for death. ”
When Niu Ben said this, he glanced at An Qitong carefully, and when he saw that An Qitong did not have any special reaction, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It's not that Niu Ben is speculating, it's because the Tian Tian girl next to Boss Yun was overflowing with kindness for a while, and she couldn't see the pitiful appearance of these people, and she had a dispute with Boss Yun.
"Are you afraid that my sympathy will overflow and accuse you of doing something wrong?"
An Qitong looked back at Niu Ben funny, his small movements An Qitong of course knew that compared to Feng Yang's quietness, Niu Ben's temperament was a bit more liked by An Qitong.
"Sister An, don't you think they are pitiful?"
This time it was Feng Yang who asked, he had been listening carefully, and he was also curious about An Qitong's reaction.
The three of them happened to walk to the woman with the child, and An Qitong found that the child in the woman's arms was still a beautiful little girl.
Looking at the little girl, An Qitong remembered Yaoyao.
"Niu Ben, give me the bag."
Although Niu Ben didn't know what An Qitong was going to do, he obediently handed the bag to An Qitong.
An Qitong opened the bag, took out biscuits, ham sausages and other foods from it, and took a few bottles of water, all of which were put into the big cloth bag carried by the woman inside, without saying anything, stood up, and was about to leave.
A pair of rough hands covered with wounds grabbed An Qitong's trouser legs so abruptly. An Qitong turned around, but met a pair of eyes full of hatred.
"I don't need your kindness, fake, let me look at it and want to vomit!"
Unexpectedly, the woman's voice was quite loud, and a standard imperial capital dialect made An Qitong turn around directly.
"Don't think that if you give me this little thing, I will thank you, if it weren't for you, my husband wouldn't have come back by now, he went to participate in order to find food for our mother, if anything happens to him, you are the murderer!"
An Qitong squatted down and looked at each other with the woman.
"Did your husband go out yesterday?"
An Qitong asked softly, and Niu Ben behind him also squatted down like An Qitong, and whispered behind An Qitong:
"Sister An, her husband should have gone out with the white team yesterday, but ......"
Niu Ben didn't finish his words, An Qitong already understood that nine times out of ten, he would either die or be trapped in the cinema.
"We're going to save your husband today, don't worry. He was trapped in a movie theater with others. ”
After An Qitong finished speaking, she stood up, she didn't take the woman's accusation to heart, this is a person who has fallen into a desperate situation, he can't reason with her, he can only give her hope.
"Hmph, that's a good thing to say, you people who think you are capable, you have taken us ordinary people very lightly, we do all kinds of dangerous things, and when we need you, we run faster than rabbits, I believe that you will save people, it is better to believe that this last world is just a dream."
The one who spoke was an elderly man not far from the woman, and he, like the woman, should be waiting for his relatives.
His hair was a little gray, and he had a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his hungry face. It looks a bit of a scholar's momentum, but now, with hatred and hostility on his face, the image of an old man in distress is portrayed into three points.
As soon as the old man's words fell, a stone flew to An Qitong's head, although it was not very big, but it also smashed An Qitong's head out of a bag, and looked in the direction where the stone flew, a boy who was only a teenager still maintained the posture of throwing stones.
"Sister An, are you okay? These bastards! ”
Niu Ben wanted to go to the boy to settle the account, but was stopped by An Qitong, she shook her head, didn't say anything, stood up, and was about to pull Niu Ben and Feng Yang away.
An Qitong can't explain it in any words, to say, for this group of people, what they see is also the truth, but the end of the world is so cruel, who hasn't crawled through the difficulties, some people have stood up, and some people have never been able to open their eyes again, morality and conscience are only bound to people of the same class, once they are no longer in the same class, what you do and say is a kind of provocation and contempt in the eyes of people who are lower than you, although you are kind, but good intentions are not all rewarded.
