Chapter 21: Nightmare
When he came to the street in the morning, Xiao Ming began to continue dismantling the solar lamps.
I don't know if it's an illusion or because after squinting for a while in the afternoon, Xiao Ming felt that the afternoon time passed very quickly.
When the sun was about to set, a truck drove into the street, belonging to the Rising Sun Bounty Regiment.
Seeing that the other party didn't greet him, he asked himself to go over to help, and Xiao Ming didn't have nothing to do to join in the fun.
Walking down the street back to the mall, most of the people have already returned.
Ai Ping saw Xiao Ming coming back, came to Xiao Ming's side, and said mysteriously.
"We're not going back today."
"yes, I know."
"I'll go back tomorrow, and then there will be a follow-up to this task, do you want to do it?"
Xiao Ming glanced at Ai Ping in surprise, and then said lightly, "Don't do it." ”
Originally, seeing Xiao Ming looking at him in surprise, Ai Ping was a little excited in his heart, but after hearing Xiao Ming say not to do it, Ai Ping's heart suddenly cooled by half.
"Why, this task is so good. Why are you planning not to do it.? Ai Ping asked him curiously.
"Boring."
Seeing Xiao Ming answer like this, Ai Ping was stunned.
For a moment, Ai Ping thought a lot.
watched Ai Ping's face turn from sunny to cloudy, and even looked like he wanted to rain.
Xiao Ming was a little helpless, and then gave Ai Ping two brains.
"What do you think, the tears are about to come out."
Ai Ping, who came back to his senses, wiped his eyes. "Not really."
"Are you really going to quit it?" Ai Ping asked in a low voice.
"Well, it's so boring, I want to be strong." Xiao Ming knew what Ai Ping meant.
For a moment, Ai Ping's eyes felt a little red.
After giving Ai Ping another brain, "Everyone has the right to choose, and the path I choose does not necessarily mean that it is suitable for you." Xiao Ming said lightly.
"You don't have to feel like I want revenge or something just because I want to be stronger, and then feel ashamed of not doing anything."
"I want to be strong just to control my own destiny, in this last days." Xiao Ming looked at Ai Ping's eyes and said slowly.
Seeing that Ai Ping was silent, Xiao Ming didn't say much, it's useless for anyone to persuade him to do this kind of thing, you have to figure it out by yourself.
Soon the sound of trucks could be heard outside.
After a while, the people of the Rising Sun all came in and said what Ai Ping had said to Xiao Ming before.
Roughly speaking, there are a lot of tasks, and one car can't be pulled, so you have to return to the base. Of course, after returning to the base, the reward will be settled this time, but I still hope that everyone will continue to come out with the group.
After all the while, the rising sun began to distribute food.
While eating, I listened to the others discuss what Sunrise was doing during the day.
Ai Ping will no longer be entangled in sentimentality, and he will become that interesting little kid again.
In Xiao Ming's opinion, the people of the Rising Sun are nothing more than looking for zombies during the day.
…………
Early the next morning, the convoy began to depart.
It's just that unlike when I came, when I went back, the truck was full of solar lights, and everyone had to sit in a crowd.
Luckily, it wasn't too far from the base, and the convoy hurried back to the base at 9 p.m.
Unlike the base convoy, other people's convoys have to be inspected when they enter and leave the city, on the one hand, for safety, and on the other hand, to record the number of tasks for everyone.
Seeing that the staff was recording the details of the mission, Xiao Ming knew that the tasks done by each bounty group or individual, the things experienced during the mission, and the cities they had been to had to be told and made public to the entire bounty hall.
That's not to say there's no privacy or anything.
For example, Group A found a large wave of corpses moving north in Jinling. When Group A returns to the base, the news will be made public, and all missions north of Jinling will be cancelled.
The bounty group is not only the completer of the mission, but also the collector of intelligence.
The convoy entered the city smoothly, and as soon as it entered the city, the convoy stopped on the side of the road, and after distributing everyone's things to everyone, it said that it would recruit in the bounty hall tomorrow, and it would be the same task.
Before leaving, Ai Ping suddenly ran over and said to Xiao Ming: "Brother Xiao, I also want to choose to become stronger, but I still decided to finish this task." ”
Seeing Ai Ping's resolute expression.
Xiao Ming just replied lightly, "Hmm." ”
Xiao Ming doesn't like to comfort or enlighten others. Although sometimes Xiao Ming has a lot of words in his heart, he won't say them.
This should be the person who is 'bored'.
After finishing speaking, Xiao Ming turned around and left, Ai Ping looked at Xiao Ming's departing figure, tears rolling in his eyes.
Ai Ping decided to prove it to Xiao Ming that he also wanted to become stronger, instead of being a bit of a mess waiting to die like Xiao Ming saw before.
If nothing else, just because Xiao Ming was the first wanderer to talk to him.
They are also wanderers, and although it is difficult to see inside the base, if you look closely, you will find that people who used to be wanderers are very xenophobic, and there is always an atmosphere called loneliness around them. Seems out of place with the surroundings.
After Xiao Ming got home, he casually took a cold shower and fell asleep on the bed.
Xiao Ming, who was lying on the bed at ten o'clock in the middle of the night, was suddenly woken up.
Xiao Ming had a nightmare, a nightmare whose content was still not very clear.
But Xiao Ming knew that he struggled in the nightmare for a long time before he woke up. When I woke up, I almost forgot all about the nightmare.
Xiao Ming got up and washed his face, looked at the time, it was only more than two o'clock, Xiao Ming, who was still a little sleepy, and then lay on the bed.
