"Are you uncomfortable?"

Scarlet opened her eyes, and behind the bath partition next to her, a kind sister-in-law looked at her.

"Nope." It was really embarrassing to meet like this, and she paused before remembering to say, "Thank you." ”

The kind sister-in-law sighed: "I thought you were suffocated by the water vapor with your eyes closed." ”

"No...... Thanks, I'm fine. ”

The kind-hearted sister-in-law smiled and chattered: "How many columns do you live in?" I'm fifteen columns. ”

“…… Thirty-six. ”

"Oh, no wonder it feels strange, it turns out that our two families are quite far apart. Hey, your surname, in which department do you do it? ”

Scarlet took a bath, chatted and gossiped, refused the invitation of the kind sister-in-law to leave after washing, and stayed in the washing tent for a short time before changing clothes and coming out. She couldn't help but take a deep breath, and the night breeze brushed through her red and hot face, bringing a fresh coolness.

The night was completely dark.

The machine assistant who guarded the female washing tent at the north end was intimately dressed in the appearance of a sturdy old aunt. Since all the people who came in and out of this place were women, and men were forbidden to approach, Scarlet stood arbitrarily for more than one time, so as not to swagger past other people's tents with a freshly bathed appearance later.

She was a little frightened of this kind of collective life, and even private things such as taking a bath seemed to be done with others for a long time, not to mention, she could still make friends and talk while taking a bath, which was really against her many years of living habits. Watching these strange people coming in and out of the washing camp, for a moment, Scarlet wanted to sigh, look at this situation, the more you live, the worse it gets, the prospect of the general direction of the trip to Rowang is wonderful, the details of daily life can not be too optimistic, and the spiritual belief that is not afraid of hardship does not seem to be enough to support this rough daily life, and you have to adapt to it for a while.

The stars hung in the sky above the treetops in the distance, and the glorious light tent of the river valley reflected each other, Scarlet stood quietly and watched, the noisy voices gradually became scarce, the heat on the surface of her body slowly melted into the night breeze, and the heart in her chest beat lightly, as if she was gently rippling by the night breeze, and in the long breath, the daily anxiety and miscellaneous things seemed to have melted away.

It was getting late, and Scarlet stood up. At this hour, every family had to sleep together, and the lights were turned off one after another, and the auxiliary aunt who was hidden in the corner suddenly said loudly: "Madam, there is still fifteen minutes before the curfew, you should go back to rest." ”

Scarlet glanced sideways, nodded, and let out a long breath.

"Madame, did you quarrel with the family?"

Scarlet paused, and turned her head to look at the auxiliary aunt again. "Nope." She shook her head.

"Kid, it's okay." Aunt Fuwei curled the corners of her lips, arched the two cheeks on her face, and became more and more kind, "It's good not to be noisy, it's better to be noisy." I'm just telling you, if you have any thoughts in your heart, you don't need to be bored, you can go to a professional clinic. It squeezed its eyes, "It's all free." ”

Scarlet stared at the aunt's face motionlessly, and bowed her head for a while: "I know, thank you." ”

"You're welcome." Aunt Fuwei said happily.

Scarlet turned around and paced back unhurriedly. In my heart, this aunt, who designed the emotional system for it, in order to talk about efficiency, the verbal posture is a little anxious between the inheritance, and the basic personality seems to be a direct combination of gentle and funny modules, without giving it more transition space.

She shook her head, threw it away, and walked on tiptoe. There were no signs on the road, and she didn't know if it was too late to make signs, or if they deliberately didn't make signs, and she thought that the legion probably wanted them to hone their skills in all aspects of life.

Along the way, the grass scraped against the tips of her boots, mostly silent, with the occasional slight rustle, and the light-lit dome shone through like tiny crystals, but could not be seen inside. Scarlet counted the ranks silently in her heart, walked in front of the door, and happened to meet a family that turned off the lights at the right time, and suddenly it was dark in front of her, and she was slightly startled, and then walked through a few more houses, and confused the numbers.

She subconsciously slowed down and began to quietly squint at the purple flowers and grass in front of the curtain of each tent she passed.

"Ma'am."

After two rows of tents, a group of four people stopped in a queue, all of them were men in black with loaded guns, and with a wave of their hands, they led a person behind them straight towards her.

"Ma'am, did you drop something?" The person who came had a solemn face, spoke very kindly, and only stared at the scarlet to scrutinize. In the dead of night, the lone woman, although she has not lingered in front of people's tents, is slowing down her pace and hesitating, of course, it is not as obscene as if she deliberately listened to the corners of the wall, but it is also like burying her head in search after losing something.

Scarlet recognized it at a glance as an escort officer and a soldier, and was also surprised in her heart. The camp of the convoy is on the west side, and this time they will come to the east to recruit the family area, which looks like a patrol procession. She thought that the entire conscription regiment had been stationed here and camped here last night, and the escort had sent officers to check on it in a solemn manner, not wanting that there would be real people who would work tirelessly to patrol the night tonight. "I didn't drop anything, sir." She replied.

"Ma'am, it's best to go to bed as soon as possible. Those who remain outside beyond the curfew hours are required to report their reasons to the Joint Defence Centre. Have you been notified? ”

"Got it, I'm going back."

"That's good."

After separating from the patrol, Scarlet quickened her pace, and walked for a while with a general impression, there were more tents with lights out, and the forest became deeper and quieter, she raised her head and looked around, and caught a glimpse of a tent door curtain rolled up a little distance, revealing a large piece of light, and a person standing outside the door, just looking at the long figure, there was a sense of familiarity. The figure took two steps forward, facing the direction of Scarlet, and apparently saw Scarlet as well.

One person and one tent in the bright lights, very eye-catching, Scarlet Silk's heart was relieved, Shang Tan'an was waiting there, these identical tents were about to make her dizzy.

"I'm back." Shang Tan'an's clear voice came.

"Hmm."

"Why is it so late? Are there a lot of people? Shang Tanan said with concern. He was noisy and crowded in the men's laundry tent, and he didn't want to go to the women's room. People like Scarlet are always very concerned when placed in a collective environment.

"It's fine."

Shang Tan'an glanced at Scarlet's face with the lamplight, and saw that she looked calm, so he nodded, didn't say more, and after she got into the tent, he lowered the door curtain for her, and said softly: "You sleep first, I'll come in later." ”

"Tan An," Scarlet looked back to stop, "I just met a patrol on the road, it's about to be curfew, you stand outside, and they are coming to ask again, just like last night." Come in. ”

Shang Tan'an hesitated, looking at the clothes on Scarlet's body, and the person was still bowing at the door curtain.

"Come in." Scarlet frowned decisively, "I'll wait for the lights to go out and then change my pajamas, it's okay not to change, I have something to tell you now." ”

"What's the matter?" Shang Tan'an entered the account.
