"Adjutant Aaron, you're back, what about the hidden lizard? Didn't bring it back? ”

"Nope."

"How ......"

The interrogator was also wearing a black military uniform, but he was not wearing a cloak, and his brown eyes were like waxed wood, warm and calm, revealing a heavy fragrance.

He was a little puzzled when he listened to Adjutant Aaron's words, and he was faintly unhappy, but he couldn't express it to the always dignified Shangguan.

“……”

The person who came over on the other side asked a little confused, "What's wrong?"

From a distance, he saw the two of them with a solemn atmosphere and unhappy expressions, and their hands were used to putting their hands on the shoulders of brown eyes, and they looked like they were hanging up.

Adjutant Aaron frowned slightly.

"Done with all the things arranged? I'll have a small meeting in the evening on specific matters, and it's not a good place to talk. ”

"Go to work."

Adjutant Aaron turned and walked away, his wide cloak swinging in an arc with his movements.

"I'm just done with work, can't I rest for a while—" The young man in military uniform later shouted lazily in a long voice, and his outstretched hand swaggered superbly in the air, and then he was hit by brown eyes and made a "snap" sound.

"You don't know you when I don't know you, what do you call work? Go and go. He pushed away the young man in military uniform who was leaning on him in disgust, and he stumbled exaggeratedly when he was pushed, and said exaggeratedly in his heart.

"Wow! Do you still have a colleague! I'm psychologically hurt! Ask for work-related injury leave! ”

"I'm too lazy to pay attention to you, I'm leaving."

"Hey! Really gone? Wait for me! ”

……

"Really...... Yes, Paz? ”

Yan Wan's sudden words without a head or an end, but Paz understood, he snorted a little nasally, and then laughed triumphantly, looking extremely naïve.

He patted his chest and promised with confidence: "Of course it doesn't matter, Eucad's group of cubs, I'll punch one and hit a hundred, I'll beat them down when they mess around."

Paz wasn't joking, he was confident enough to act like that at the moment.

"Besides, it takes their blood to open the ruins, doesn't it?" He touched Yan Wan's head and whispered comfortingly: "So, don't worry, it'll be fine, go to sleep."

"Hmmm......"

Yan Wan replied in a low voice, and then lay down obediently, curled up and wrapped in a blanket, revealing only a white little face, and closed his eyes in the soft light.

Even when she closed her eyes, she could feel the presence of Paz sitting next to her, constantly exuding a blazing temperature and a sense of reassurance, and she had an extremely strong sense of presence.

Unable to sleep for a while, she remembered the events of the day.

I took Paz's hand and finally found what I was looking for, but I was not happy.

Because it's a ruin, or a cemetery, a modern human city, and you already know it's deserted just by looking at it.

Yellow sand everywhere, high-rise buildings collapsed, and ugly monsters shuttling through the ruins, it is a post-apocalyptic scene.

What happened?

When Yan Wan wanted to explore what happened to that ruin, she was blocked by a curtain of light.

[Open the door with the blood of a whole xenomorph (non-human).] 】

It was written like this, the scarlet font was crooked, and the familiar square words made Yan Wan's emotions completely out of control.

She couldn't imagine what was going on, and she even wanted to deceive herself that she had traveled to another world.

And not like it is now.

At that time, she slapped the curtain of light that blocked her, crying and shouting words that she didn't know what she meant.

Upside down.

It was so embarrassing that Yan Wan turned over and buried his face in the soft fabric, covering the corners of his reddened eyes, and the overflowing tears soaked the dark blanket.

Even if she didn't want to dig deeper, unwarranted conjectures kept drilling into her brain and harassing her.

If that is really the remnants of humanity, is humanity already extinct? My motherland, my hometown, my parents, are they all gone?

If I didn't travel to another world, I don't know why I woke up and slept 10,000 years later......

Doesn't that mean I have no home at all?

Yan Wan silently kept tears, not a violent grief, but a kind of despair that was close to emptiness.

It's like a winter night when you have finally found a habitat, but even the last flickering candle flame has been extinguished.

She felt a hole in her heart, whirring and leaking, and the teeth of the little people living inside were chattering, and even the shell outside began to freeze.

She felt like she was about to drown in tears.

In the silence of the room, she suddenly heard a soft sigh.

There was a small noise, like turning off the lights, and then the side was gently pressed down, as if a person was lying on it.

The grinding of the fabric was noticeable in the silence of the night.

Then Yan Wan was hugged into a warm embrace, with a pointed chin on top of his head, and his back was gently patted.

"Alright, alright."

"And I'm here, good."

"Sleep."

The ordinary words, with a sleepy mute voice, were heavy, like rubbing the little girl who woke up in the middle of the night from a nightmare, carelessly with love in her heart.

Yan Wan stretched out his hand and hugged him, and answered softly, with a crying voice.

"Hmm."

At least I still have Paz, and when the ruins are gone, I'll go with him to live in another star field.

As for the rest...... Actually, it's not that important, is it.

"Good night, Leah."

"Ann."
