meet
Suddenly~~~ The car was still working diligently, and the boys and girls continued to walk towards the pillar leading to the upper floor after filling the drain with drinking water and washing and drying their clothes. In this multi-layered city that seems to be a beehive, if you want to reach the top level, you must pass through the pillars of each floor, which not only support the upper level of the city, but also the passage from the lower level to the upper level..................
"The grilled fish with rice was amazing! ψ(`??) ψ," Yuri said, reminiscing about the fish she had accidentally picked up and washed down from the top layer not long ago.
"It scared me. I didn't expect Fubosan to have such a side. Xiao Qian said while driving.
"It's a bit embarrassing to say! After all, it's very different from the fish I remember. The boy remembered his performance at that time, and his face was still a little hot.
"What does the fish look like in the memory of Floating Possan? Is it tasty? ”
"Well~~ It's basically the same as that fish! It's just that it doesn't feel like a salted fish! The boy remembered the smooth surface of the fish, its earthy yellow color, and the sad look in it, which was still shiny but saw through everything.
"Salted fish? Is it the one that people used to keep by salting and drying the fish? ”
"Yes, it's the salted fish you said." The boy admitted.
"The people used to be so nice! I can often eat such delicious food late. Chi-chan, do you think you can still catch fish in the sea now? Yuri asked curiously.
"Well! I guess I can't find it! After all, it is said that there are no other creatures in this world except humans! ”
"Huh? Why is this so? ”
"Probably because of the war!"
“…… War or something, it's really annoying. ”
"Yes!" Chito and the boy said at the same time.
"Actually, I think if there were no other creatures, we humans would probably die out soon!" Yuri said in frustration.
"It's no different from perdition, isn't it? After all, after all this time, we have only met Fubosan alone. ”
"That's right! Before I met you, I thought I was the last human in the world, so I'm glad to meet Chia and Yuri! ”
"We're glad to see you (Fubosan), too." The two girls said to the boy at the same time.
"Then let's survive together in this final world!"
"Hmm!"
The car continued to move to add a bit of noise to the quiet city, and also carried the teenagers and girls towards their destination.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Anyway, we need to find a place to replenish the gasoline!" Qianhu looked at the fuel gauge of his car and said.
"That's right! After all, I haven't refueled since I came out of that place! Although there is still a lot of food. Yuri said as she sat in the car and ate the rice balls that the teenager made with rice and canned red beans.
"After all, after all this time, some of the oil supply facilities have long been abandoned!" The boy thought of the gas supply stations on the road that had long been unable to release a drop of oil, and said helplessly.
"Thankfully, the car doesn't consume as much gas!" Qianhu touched the headlights of the car and said.
"In terms of value for money, I think this halftrack is probably the most suitable for today's situation." The young man also said with admiration.
"Well~~ But the replenishment of gasoline must be put on the agenda as soon as possible."
"Boom!" A loud bang came from the front with a huge amount of smoke and dust.
"It sounds like the sound of bomb powder exploding." The boy looked at it carefully and said.
"In other words.................." Senhe said as he stopped the car.
"There's someone over there! Sen-chan. ”
"Well! All in all, let's check it out! Yuri, remember to load your bullets, after all, it's better to be cautious. The boy reminded.
“OK!” You picked up the rifle on the side with a wary face, and said with a click.
"So............ Let's go! Qianhu started the car again and drove towards the explosion site.
Judging by the smoke from the explosion, the boys and girls soon reached their destination, and in front of them was a bridge made of collapsed buildings, which were the result of --- explosion from the fresh fractures and the small amount of dust still floating.
"Chi-chan! Look, there's a guy there! The sharp-eyed Yuri pointed to the figure smoking in front of the building.
As if the book heard movement behind him, the man turned around. I saw that it was a guy wearing a cloak and goggles, although the goggles were too big to see the person's face, but it could be seen from the stubble faintly visible on the chin that it was a man, and he was not young.
"Ah............ Ahem! The man's mouth kept opening and closing, but it didn't make a sound.
"Who are you?" You stood in the car and asked cautiously with a gun, and the Qianhu and the young man on the side also looked at each other vigilantly.
"Ah~~ cough! I'm sorry! Well, it's been a long time since I've met someone, and I almost forgot to speak! It took a while for the man to begin to stumble as if he had remembered the instinct of his own language.
"My name is Kanazawa, and I'm currently traveling while drawing a map." The man pushed the goggles to his forehead and introduced himself.
"The explosion just now is ............"
"Ahh I did it. As you can see, I don't know when the bridge on this side disappeared, so I wanted to build a new ............one," Kanazawa explained.
"So you blew that building down?"
"After all, this building is the only one in the vicinity that fits." The man took another drag on his cigarette and said.
"Si Guoyi!" You sighed on the side.
"Well, can you put the gun down?" Kanazawa asked awkwardly.
"Chi-chan, okay?"
"Put it down!"
I always feel like I'm looking at it! The young man looked at this scene and thought with emotion.
"I'd like to go through this deep ditch from above, that's a good idea!" Kanazawa said, pointing to the building's deliberately blown up slope.
"Indeed, a good idea! By the way, my name is Fubo, this is Yuli, and the black-haired one is Chiho, and we just heard this loud noise nearby and rushed over to check it out. The boy introduced himself and the two girls behind him to Kanazawa.
"Is that your car?" Kanazawa asked, looking at the half-track that was parked not far away.
"Hmm!"
"Where is the destination?" Kanazawa continued.
"We want to go through this ditch and get to the other side of the tower." Chito said, pointing to the pillar that leads to the upper level of the straight passage opposite.
"By the way, look for a fuel supply facility." Yuri added from the side.
"That!" Kanazawa took a step forward with a beaming face: "I have a request............"
"What request?"
"Ah,~~Hehehe~~" Kanazawa smiled awkwardly as he looked at the muzzle that was raised again stimulated by his action just now..................
"It's not impossible to take you for a ride, after all, you helped us build the bridge." Chinohe steered the car and struggled to climb up the slope, while Chino, the boy and Kanazawa followed behind the car, observing the road conditions for Chiho from time to time, and even pushing the car up some steep slopes if necessary.
"It's really hard to crawl here!" Chido drove cautiously up the hill, stopping from time to time to wait for Yuri to raise the vertical fault with a cement slab before continuing to travel upward.
"Whew~~~~ It's finally climbed up." The boy said, looking at the half-track on the plane.
"It's the first time I've seen a half-track!" Kanazawa, who was on the side, wiped the beads of sweat from his head and said.
"Where's Kanazawa's car?"
"There used to be a motorcycle, but it was damaged."
"That's why you want us to give you a ride?"
"Just go to the entrance to the upper level! I'll figure it out later. Kanazawa patted the dust off his body and said.
"It's been a long time since I've sweated like this, and I feel like I'm still alive." Yuri on the side finally relented and said.
"Alive?"
"Chi-chan often wonders if she's still alive............" Yuri said as she took a sip of the jug handed over by the boy.
"I've never said that." Chiho argued.
"Hey! Kanazawa, come up! The boy and Yuri squeezed out an empty seat in the car and said to Kanazawa, who was thinking about something.
"Oh! ………… Thank you! Kanazawa came back to his senses and got into the car with the help of the boy.
"It's okay!" The boy handed Kanazawa a glass of water and asked, "You just said that you were traveling while drawing a map, right?" ”
"Thank you!" Kanazawa took the water cup and took a sip, "Yes, I've already finished drawing the map for this layer!" ”
"So...... You should know where to find a reliable oil supply facility! Chiho then asked.
"Hmmm! Some. After handing the finished water cup back to the boy, Kanazawa opened the satchel he was carrying and began to rummage through it.
"The nearest refueling facility is.................. Yes! Got it. Kanazawa said, pointing to a point on the map he had taken out.
"Yo Xi! Then I'll trouble you to lead the way! Qianhu said happily after hearing this.
"First of all, .................. in this direction"
"Got it!"
"Followed by ............"
Under Kanazawa's guidance, the car began to set off again on its way to the next goal..................
