077 What about people?
Yang Jinxia stared at Chen Xu's face until she looked a little uncomfortable with him, and asked her, "Why are you looking at me like this?" ”
"Nothing."
She smiled, a smile of joy from the heart, "I just think you're such a good person." ”
Chen Xu felt a little embarrassed when he heard this, and said, "Hey, I feel like you're praising people, but this sentence always makes people feel weird." ”
"I mean really."
She put her chin in her hands and said, "I know that when I lose the constraints of law and morality, I will be in trouble again. People will become unlimited, and it is really possible to do anything. I've always been glad I met you. If I were another man, I wouldn't have ended well. ”
"It has nothing to do with whether you're a good person or not."
Chen Xu shook his head, maybe he had been holding back in his heart for too long, he had a lot of words today, "Let me tell you a story." ”
"I have a cousin who is two years older than me. When I was in the fourth or fifth grade of elementary school, he was the person I envied the most. ”
"His mother loved him very much and gave him a lot of pocket money. He buys all kinds of delicious food and toys every day, and often skips class to go to Internet cafes to surf the Internet and play games. The days went by very chicly. His mother never cared about him, and his father wanted to take care of it, but she didn't let him. With his mother's backing, he was even more unscrupulous when he escaped class. ”
"At that time, when it was a holiday, I would follow him to eat and play. One weekend night, I was out late with him, it was almost twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, and I wanted to go home, but he wouldn't let me. Suddenly he proposed to make a fire to play, so he lit a bicycle repair shed on the side of the road. ”
"The fire grew bigger and bigger, and I was terrified and ran home. Because he came home too late, he was scolded by his family. That night, I was so scared that I didn't sleep all night. ”
"Later, I heard that it was fortunate that the surrounding residents found out early and extinguished the fire before it spread, so it didn't cause more damage."
"I was scared for months. After that, I secretly asked him why he did it. He said, "It's boring." I couldn't understand at the time, he had so much pocket money, he could buy whatever he wanted, skip class if he wanted to, and go to an Internet café if he wanted to. It's a fairy day. He actually said it was boring? ”
"After that incident, I was a little scared of him, so I didn't play with him much."
After a few years, he went to high school, and his life became more chic, and with a few friends in society, he drove a small car every day and took girls for a ride. The girlfriends around me have changed one after another. ”
"It wasn't until the day I finished my high school entrance exam that I heard that he had been arrested. To be honest, I wasn't surprised at the time, as he fooled around all day, and sooner or later something would happen. It's just that I didn't expect him to commit such a serious crime. ”
"He followed a few people, gave a girl a turn, and stabbed someone's boyfriend, and the man died on the spot."
"Later, my dad didn't know what to think, so he went home and took me to the detention center to see him. My dad asked him why he was doing it. He was particularly remorseful, saying that he wanted to have some fun, but he didn't expect things to come to this point. ”
Yang Jinxia listened quietly and did not interject.
Chen Xu finished speaking in one breath, smiled, and said, "Since then, whenever I am very stressed, tired, and want to give up, I will think of him, and then ask myself, even if you put everything away and indulge yourself, you can do whatever you want." Will you be happy? ”
"Not really. Even if he hadn't been caught in the end, I think he would have lived quite empty. ”
"When I think about it this way, I seem to feel that life is not so tiring again."
Chen Xu said all the words, felt a lot more comfortable, and saw that she hadn't moved her chopsticks, and said, "Hurry up and eat, the noodles will be mushy in a while." ”
"Hmm." Yang Jinxia picked up the chopsticks and said, "You eat too." ”
While eating, his eyes looked at Chen Xu.
…………
After Chen Xu settled in this shelter, he was not as homely as before, except for two or three hours a day to read materials, the rest of the time, he wandered around.
It is much larger than the previous vault, with a total of seven floors and a pyramidal structure, with the top floor being the smallest and the further down it goes, the larger it occupies.
The upper four floors are the living quarters, and the bottom three floors belong to the production area, with all kinds of factory workshops, and the whole shelter is like a small kingdom, almost self-sufficient.
However, most of them have now left with the rescue team. Except for the first floor, the six floors below have all been abandoned.
After Chen Xu got permission from S01, he walked down layer by layer. I found a lot of things.
When the people in the evacuation center left, there were a lot of things that they didn't have time to bring, and there were a lot of things left in each room, most of which were daily necessities. Occasionally, you can also find some electronic products, which should have been accidentally missed by the original owner.
After walking around like this for a few days, he has basically confirmed that there should be only one robot left in the entire shelter, S01, and as for the humans, there is no trace of them. He always remembered that S01 had said that there was a small number of people still here.
So the question is, where did these people go?
He asked S01, who replied that it was classified and that he had no access to it.
So, in addition to searching for some useful items, he also wanted to find out where those people were.
It took him nearly a month to go through all the six floors below, and every room was opened to look at it, but he still found nothing.
In a more luxurious room on the second floor, he got a personal terminal, like a handheld computer, and he tried to log in, and it worked. It should be connected to the host.
In this terminal, there is a complete map of the Vault. It was on this map that he searched every room.
Although the person did not find it, he brought back a few useful things.
"Look what I found."
As soon as Chen Xu went back, he went to find Yang Jinxia excitedly.
"What's that?"
After a month of recuperation, Yang Jinxia has fully recovered, and she is making a potted plant in the hall. After Chen Xu went down to the bottom layer, he finally found some soil and brought it back to her, planning to use it to grow some vegetables and the like.
After a month, they have eaten almost all the vegetables and meat they brought from G5232. The quality of the diet has dropped a notch.
Chen Xu said happily, "Look, there are three small meat synthesis warehouses. In the future, we will not worry about running out of meat to eat. ”
"That's great." Yang Jinxia is also very happy, it is indeed a good thing to have meat to eat.
Chen Xu got down to business again, "It's just that I haven't found anyone, I've searched all the places, no." ”
Yang Jinxia nodded and said, "In this way, it can only be in one place." ”
