Luo Xiaoqian drove through half of Changshan City, and finally came to the Changshan First Hospital in the center of Changshan, which is different from the lifeless in other places in Changshan City, it seems to be extremely lively, people come and go, and from time to time there are fully armed city guards patrolling, because after the nuclear war, although the relevant departments issued nuclear radiation blocking drugs for the first time, but because everyone's physique is different, some people die in a few days, some people have no reaction, and some people have serious diseases, and even some people, there are changes beyond common sense, that is, the so-called evolutionary。

The hospital has become a holy place for many patients.

Luo Xiaoqian is sad, after the nuclear war, his parents are cold, but God still has mercy, he adopted an orphan from the neighbor's family, that is, Xiaobai, and Luo Xiaoqian's girlfriend also survived this catastrophe, but the headache is that she has a very serious disease, she needs to live in a closed warehouse in the hospital all year round, no contact with outsiders, and the annual expenses are an astronomical amount, over the years, Luo Xiaoqian in order to earn his girlfriend's medical expenses, is a cheat, do everything, almost go to the bar in the middle of the night to lick the butts of the group of faggots。

Parking the car in the underground garage of the hospital, Luo Xiaoqian trotted for a while, spent half an hour, and finally came to the special ward of the hospital after layers of investigation, Luo Xiaoqian's girlfriend Xiao Yehong stayed in a closed cabin of less than ten square meters.

This closed cabin is completely isolated from everything in the outside world, even the light, has been screened to a certain extent, Xiao Yehong was sitting on the pure white hospital bed, and saw Luo Xiaoqian coming through the window, and his face was instantly full of smiles.

Luo Xiaoqian is wearing a straight black suit, except for a little dark circles, she looks very energetic and sunny in other aspects, and Xiao Yehong is wearing a blue and white hospital gown, the skin on her whole body has become snow-white because of the disease, and her waist-length hair is also snow-white, even the blood, Luo Xiaoqian has seen it, it is also white.

Every day, Xiao Yehong can't eat any food, and can only maintain her life by drinking nutrient solution, the sweet and sour nutrient solution, drinking it for several years, tastes no better than drinking old urine that has been put in for a few years.

Xiao Yehong thought about euthanasia, but under Luo Xiaoqian's kneeling and pleading, she gave up this idea, and now what she looks forward to every day is that Luo Xiaoqian can come and talk to her during the visiting time from ten to ten o'clock in the morning, and this half hour is also cherished by Luo Xiaoqian.

Palm to palm, separated by a piece of synthetic floor-to-ceiling glass, Luo Xiaoqian took out his mobile phone and typed on it:

Did you miss me?

Xiao Yehong took out a notebook and wrote with a pen:

I've thought about it, I've been thinking about it all day!

The two looked at each other and smiled, which was particularly beautiful at this time.

That strange disease, even the network signal can't be touched, Xiao Yehong's daily pastime is the pile of ancient and modern Chinese and foreign classics that I have read many times, every once in a while, Luo Xiaoqian has spare money to buy new books, and then send them to Xiao Yehong's isolation warehouse after all-round disinfection.

The time of happiness is always short, and after a few words, half an hour passed, Luo Xiaoqian came out of the special ward, changed the optimism just now, and the whole person became depressed, Xiao Yehong's attending physician sent a message this morning, the cost of the isolation warehouse should be doubled every month, which is not the last straw that crushed the camel, but the last ton of straw that crushed the camel.

In other words, the money earned by opening a repair shop is no longer enough for Xiao Yehong's monthly expenses, and Luo Xiaoqian must find a more profitable way out.

All the way to the side of the underground garage, stopped in a fitness area, the fitness equipment was empty, no one came to touch these things at all, Luo Xiaoqian sat on the iron frame, lit a pack of cigarettes in ten minutes, and then hung it on the horizontal bar, exhausted and deadlifted dozens of pull-ups, and the calluses on the hands of the straight pull were hot and painful.

Throwing the empty cigarette pack into the trash, Luo Xiaoqian finally made a decision, to become a mercenary and hunt those supernatural monsters, if he is lucky enough to survive, a year's income will be enough for Xiao Yehong's treatment expenses in this life.

drove the pickup back to the repair shop, it was already noon, Xiaobai had already woken up, made a table of dishes, and squatted at the door waiting for Luo Xiaoqian to come back.

The two sat down for lunch together, and Luo Xiaoqian said: "I'm going to be a mercenary, and you can handle the affairs in the store yourself in the future, and when I'm not there, you have to help me go to the hospital to see you Sister Ye Hong every day, you know?"

Xiaobai was precocious, she naturally knew what it meant to be a mercenary, but she also knew that she couldn't change Luo Xiaoqian's mind, so she could only say: "Master, don't worry, Xiaobai will do a good job." ”

Luo Xiaoqian touched Xiaobai's head, she has followed her for so many years, really speaking, in addition to giving her a bed and a few mouthfuls of food, she is just squeezing her as a free laborer, it seems that her conscience is really bad.

Originally, at Xiaobai's age, he should have studied in school, or practiced martial arts in a martial arts school, instead of being buried in a pile of oil and steel all day long, like a tomboy who couldn't see his appearance.

After Luo Xiaoqian finished eating, he went to sleep, slept groggily until the evening, got up to wash, and then came to the repair shop downstairs, opened the curtain on the rookie No. 1, started the mecha, and the cold rookie No. 1 suddenly became operational.

Turn on the core processor of Cainiao No. 1 and connect it to the mobile phone, and the artificial intelligence Diana is instantly transmitted to Cainiao No. 1.

Mechanical mecha, artificial intelligence is unable to control the action, but it can provide Luo Xiaoqian with the most comprehensive information and guidance, as for how to operate, it depends on Luo Xiaoqian's hand speed in the past seven or eight years of living alone, after all, the driving difficulty of the mechanical mecha is more than ten times that of the intelligent mecha, but for Luo Xiaoqian, who has been in contact with the mecha since childhood, it is not a problem.

Luo Xiaoqian climbed into the cockpit of the rookie No. 1, and Diana's voice suddenly sounded, unlike what he thought, Diana's voice felt very serious this time.

Diana said: "The rookie No. 1 is running normally, the core engine has reached five cores, the comprehensive driver strength, the estimated combat effectiveness, ten cores!"

Luo Xiaoqian said: "You can really blow! Ten cores, you really think I am a master of mecha piloting, to tell the truth, this is the first time I have driven a mecha to fight." ”

Diana said, "Master, believe in yourself. Moreover, the driver I am talking about is me, not you. ”

Luo Xiaoqian's old face darkened, and he really wanted to lose his mother, although Diana was just an artificial intelligence.

Xiaobai pulled out the maintenance pipe on the mecha and shouted outside, "Master, it's okay." ”

Luo Xiaoqian took a deep breath, looked at the dozens of controllers large and small in the driver's compartment, moved his fingers, and pushed the accumulator to the bottom.

The headlights on the mecha turned on instantly, and the dimly lit repair shop was illuminated as if it were daylight.

Diana said: "The remaining energy of the nuclear battery, 71 percent, it is recommended to save electricity. ”

Luo Xiaoqian had no choice but to turn off the light on the mecha, leaving only one light on his head.

Rookie No. 1 walked out of the repair shop step by step, looking like a person, without a pause at all, insiders know at a glance that the pilot of this mecha has something, and things can often be seen from the simplest aspect.

Rookie No. 1 stood still, and Luo Xiaoqian said: "Okay Xiaobai, you go back, I want to go to the Nuclear Weapons Alliance to certify my strength, and I won't be back until tomorrow." ”

Xiaobai said, "Okay, Master." ”

Rookie No. 1 nodded and began to walk down the street, in Changshan City at night, the streets were a little angry, the pain of nuclear war made people drunk and confused, day and night reversed, so as to forget the unbearable past.

In the dim corner, drugs, sex, alcohol, fights, robberies, all kinds of legal and illegal things are going on, and when they saw the big guy of rookie No. 1 passing by, they only had a little restraint, Luo Xiaoqian was very happy, if there was no Xiaobai and Xiao Yehong, he would probably become a member of them, for a pill, unscrupulous means, there is no lower limit.
