Chapter 139: Numb Life
The sharp-toothed cats outside waited, but after all, they couldn't wait for anything, those broken-toothed cats had no power to fight back under the black shadow, and fortunately, the black shadow couldn't get out of the door, and the only pipe that could get through was too small, which saved the lives of the sharp-toothed cats outside, and they also smelled a faint blood coming from the pipe, indicating that there must have been a battle inside, and after waiting to no avail, they decided to return.
During this time, the rest of the team of sharp-toothed cats who came here explored other places, and also suffered from different degrees of traps, and also stopped in front of a door, but this is the situation here, and when they returned to the surface, they found that the rest of the sharp-toothed cats had also dug a passage to the underground, but a little different, like a residential area, basically not dangerous.
After a day of exploring, I learned from the information obtained by the sharp-toothed cats that under the wreckage of this city, there is still a world buried all over the underground, and some of the things in it are still intact!
And in the room that the broken tooth cats entered, the black shadow was still walking leisurely, as if on patrol, until he received a message for a long time, the black shadow found a place to lie down and stopped thinking.
After confirming that the sharp-toothed cat outside the door had left, an extremely emaciated man turned around, and the person behind him was the same as him, the same emaciation, which seemed to be caused by the inability to replenish the nutrients in the body.
"What the hell are those things?" He pushed his glasses, his voice weak, "How did they get here?" It seems that there is still some wisdom, and I am afraid that there will be trouble next. ”
"Since the last big earthquake, the plants in the shelter have begun to gradually decrease, something must have happened on it, and the exit is probably revealed at that time." The person behind him was holding a rectangular one with many buttons in his hand, looked at the sleeping black shadow on the screen, and said with some yearning, "If I didn't know the password of the door, I would have gone out, I have been trapped for so many years, no generation has ever been to the ground, I heard that there is a great danger above, really, it has been so long, how can there be anything!" Wouldn't it be nice to hide back here if it really didn't work? ”
For the ground, the man with glasses actually has great curiosity and desire, but he is forced to keep this matter in his heart, maybe he will be the same as his ancestors, stay in this underground until he grows old, but the words of his companion activated his desire, the man with glasses looked around, and after confirming that no one was watching, he suddenly approached and asked: "You say, should we tell ······ about this?"
Seeing that the man with glasses was colored, the person with a remote control similar to the remote control also understood that he also had his own selfishness, thought about it, and decided to hide it, but they thought that they might not be able to say what creatures had entered in other places, so they made up their minds to go to the person on duty in that place, and prepared not to report the matter at all.
The two of them walked through the corridor familiarly, met with other people, communicated with each other, and found that the sharp-toothed cat appeared in almost half of the place, but they were all blocked from the door, and even if they managed to get in, they controlled something to solve it.
Some of these people also have the same idea as the glasses man, so after they put it together, they all agreed to conceal it, and what they wanted was to go back to the ground, and how to get the key and password to the door, since there are so many sharp-toothed cats entering the exit, it means that the outside has been opened, and there is not even much danger, in their eyes, relying on the things in the underground shelter, it is easy to deal with sharp-toothed cats.
"What the hell are those high-ups doing?" The man with glasses brings a glass of water, which he got from this mission, and adds a small bowl of paste to the next meal, which will be better than the others.
The equally emaciated man next to him also took a glass of water, took two sips, and prepared to take it back to his family to drink—although there was no such thing as a home here, everyone had the same identity, and they would stay wherever they worked, but he was lucky that his son had recently been transferred here, and he was going to leave the bowl of mush for his son.
"What else can they do? Enjoying their own pleasures, eating delicious food, using us as slaves, and listening to the faint sound of laughter and singing, ho! That's the distance between us and them, just one wall, but two different experiences. He said a little too much in one breath, and couldn't help but take another sip of water, and in order to retain his own water, he kept his mouth shut and turned away.
The man with glasses also took a sip of water, he was alone in this area, and there was nothing to stay, he came to another person's side, at this time, a voice suddenly came from the radio, and a string of code names was broadcast on it, it was the name of an old man, he had worked for so many years, and had enough merits, so he could enter the high-rise area and enjoy the last life.
Watching the old man staggering towards the wall, the others didn't have the heart to lean over to take a look, because there would definitely be something blocking them at that time, but even watching the old man step into the place where the song and dance, the aroma of the delicious food wafted out faintly, it was unbearable, but there was nothing to be done.
"They're all numb." The person on the side said, looking at the old man who went in with a sparkle in his eyes, "Why don't you say that person can't bring his own child in?" Look there, it's his child, watching his father enter the high-rise area, but he still has to work hard to accumulate merit, and in the end he may not be able to enter there. ”
Following the direction of his fingers, the man with glasses looked at a person who was also emaciated holding his fists, watching his father get farther and farther away, but he didn't even dare to take a step forward, the man with glasses didn't have too much expression, and drank a sip of water again: "This damn system, that guy is just an ordinary slave according to the system, how can it have anything to do with this guy who has entered the top now." ”
A burst of radio sounds sounded again, and another person from another area entered the high-rise area, and the man with glasses pinched the cup in his hand and muttered: "There are a lot of people who have entered the high-level recently." ”
"But don't get your hopes up." The person on the side said flatly, "The people who enter the upper echelons seem to be old people, how many years can they stay in it?" If you're also dying of old age, there's still some hope, but alas, you're still early. ”
"It's time to get your meal." The man with glasses stood up, drank the last sip of water, put the cup back, and walked towards the dining area, a group of people were also lined up in an orderly manner, their eyes only had the desire for the barely life-sustaining food, but if they snatched the food, they would be arrested by the mechanical police sent by the high-level district, and then no one would ever see him again.
The man with glasses received a quarter of the dry bread, which was smaller than his fist, and the other ordinary people received half of the bread, and because he had an extra bowl of mush, he was cut in half of the bread, but the mush was enough to supplement this, and it could be a little better, only a little better.
Everyone has to get just one sip of water, these are strictly controlled, the man with glasses is glad that he has already drunk water, and now he can get another sip, after he received the water, he and the people who also completed the task went to get the paste, but when queuing, he heard some voices in front of him, with a hint of joy, but soon became numb again.
When he had waited for him, he reached out and took his mush, a bowl of something mixed up from something I don't know, but it was easy to eat, not as dry and chewy as bread, and he saw at a glance that there were a few more small maroon particles in the paste, which made him understand why anyone had been happy before—there was meat in it!
Basically, since his grandfather's generation, he hasn't eaten meat ten times in total, this is what the glasses man listened to his father, basically a person twice in his life, but this time it was a little early, which made the glasses man a little incredible, but he didn't think much about it, and quickly ate it, and the paste felt more fragrant than the previous few times.
At that moment, the companion who had returned with him approached him and whispered, "The creatures we dealt with are gone." ”
The man in glasses was stunned, looking at the small meat particles in the bowl and probably understood something, he chewed the meat grains in his mouth without changing his face, but his eyes were looking at the wall of the high-rise area, his eyes could not penetrate the wall, but the people in the wall looked at them as if they had penetrated······
