Chapter 19 It's like a world away

"You're going to be away for three days?"

Sitting in front of the lit pyre, Filina's face was full of suspicion. Lin Du touched his nose and pulled out a booklet encased in a plastic bag from his pocket.

"When I went out during the day, I found this thing, and it said that there was another place in the city that might have stored potions, and I had to look to see if there was any special medicine that could cure my body."

Suffering from cancer, his life is short.

It's something he'd told Felina a long time ago, and it's a great way to go it alone.

"Show me! If that's true, I'll go with you! ”

Firina was expressionless, and deliberately pursed her lips, obviously scoffing at what he said. Seeing this, he coughed, quickly pulled out a hot potato from under the fire, stood up and walked out.

"I'll be back in three days!"

The booklet was something he had brought with him from the original plane, and it was only his daily bill. Now that the lie has been discovered, he can only flee in a hurry to avoid letting this little girl continue to ask.

Walking out of Filina's room, she waited quietly at the door for a while, and found that she didn't come out, and Lin Dui breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

It's not a question of trust and distrust, and time travel is too cumbersome to explain. What's more, I don't know if I can bring someone else with me yet, and the best choice is to hide it from her for the time being until the relevant information is confirmed.

Back in his room, Lin Du sat on a shabby mattress, staring at his phone without blinking, staring at the countdown on the screen.

‘02:15:49’……

‘02:10:15’……

‘01:59:59’……

Staring at the clock and waiting for time is obviously a stupid thing to do. When his eyelids began to fight and his head began to drowsy, he had to rub his face vigorously and take his eyes off the screen of his phone.

"Damn it! Can't you just give your phone some entertainment features? Even if there's a Contra, it's fine! ”

During his time in the wasteland world, in addition to the many dangers and dangers, what touched him the most was the lack of entertainment.

Firina, that little girl, doesn't worry about that.

Ever since the electric lights in the underground garage had been moved to her room, she had started carving on some rotten wood with a dagger at night. Although he didn't think it made much sense, it was clearly a way to pass the time.

Lying on the mattress, quietly looking at the black hole ceiling above his head, his mind gradually returned to the past.

When I was a child, my parents died in an accident, but fortunately, there are relatives who are willing to adopt. After nine years of compulsory education, he was lucky to be above the score line and successfully admitted to high school.

Then there was another three-year closed high school career, in order to live up to the money his aunt spent on himself, he gave up everything other than studying, and finally successfully entered a second-class university.

Some people say that university is the freest place, and he thinks so. The teacher doesn't care if you want to learn or not, because from then on you will be responsible for yourself.

As far as he knows, when he graduated, many students who were greedy for fun received a certificate of completion.

Stepping into society, he felt the cruelty of competition for the first time. A diploma brings him only the qualification to compete with others, and connections, ability, and luck are the most important bargaining chips in the competition.

Eventually, he found a job in the sales department of a shoe company, a job that would allow him to feed himself.

Why do people live?

Looking back on his life, this question suddenly arose in his heart. Eating and drinking can only be instinctive, but this is definitely not a goal worth striving for.

The life of another person on the Internet flashed through his mind, and a faint wry smile appeared on his face. In the world of beeping dogs, the life of, some people are born with everything that others want, and some people work hard all their lives, just to get food and clothing.

He is very aware of his future, works hard to increase his income, carries a heavy mortgage, marries a daughter-in-law who sees the right eye, and works all his life until the last moment to unload all the baggage.

Now, though, it's different!

He's not stupid, he's not a genius, but he can still understand the simple truth.

The wasteland is a hell that can kill him at any time, and it is also the greatest opportunity he has ever had in his life.

He can get everything he wants. Strength, wealth, power, beauty, these coveted things are buried in this barren world.

All he has to do is live!

Ding dong!

The phone rang crisply, and he came back to his senses from his troubled thoughts. When I picked up my phone, I saw a red countdown on it.

‘00:04:49’

'Please decide whether to return or not within five minutes!' ’

Without the slightest hesitation, he got up from his mattress, straightened his dirty clothes, and finally put a semi-automatic pistol he had found during the day and a few boxes of matching bullets into the storage space.

"Return!"

Tick!

Time in the whole world stood still in an instant, and all that came to eye was black and white. The coldness of the night was gone, and the terrifying roaring outside the window had stopped.

The familiar oval wooden door appeared in front of him, and he even saw the demon wink at him. The nine branches on the wooden door tree, the words engraved on them, he was suddenly able to understand their meaning.

This is the world tree in Norse mythology, and the nine branches represent the nine kingdoms. Compared to the icon of the tree on the phone, it has two more branches.

The door slowly opened, and the spinning black hole seemed to be the coldest thing in the universe, instantly sucking Lin Dui's body in, accompanied by the ordinary mobile phone.

…………

"Drop! Drip! Drip! ”

The shrill sound of the horn brought him back to his senses. The streets are lined with hurried passers-by, neon signs on high-rise buildings, and cars coming and going in the driveway. He suddenly felt like he was in a different world.

"Grass mud horse! Standing in the middle of the road and looking for death? Labor and management are still in a hurry to eat! Hurry up and get out! ”

The familiar shouting came as he noticed that he was standing in the middle of the road, his head poking out of a yellow car with an angry face.

"Nyima! Dare BB labor and management to stab you to death again! ”

Cursing, he walked slowly across the street to the other side of the street. The driver was dumbfounded, thinking that he had never seen such an arrogant person.

Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that the little flat head was full of anger, but in the end he didn't get out of the car, just scolded a few words in a low voice and drove away.

Bag!

Secretly scolding, he ignored the pointing of others on the street, dressed in tattered clothes, and walked in the direction of the rental house in his memory.

He was deliberately causing trouble, the wasteland world had already made him depressed, and when he returned to the safe world, he suddenly relaxed, and his emotions were a little out of control.

It's definitely a good idea to clean up someone with a bad mouth! The only pity is that the young man coaxed!

"Kobayashi! Where have you been these days? A fat man surnamed Wang came to your company, and he has been looking for you several times! ”

I just walked to the gate of the community and happened to meet the landlord who was riding an electric car. He touched his head and said with a dry smile: "Sister Li, I had an accident with a few friends going to outdoor sports, no, it's so embarrassing!" ”

"Outdoor sports! Kobayashi! It's not me talking about you! Be careful when you go out now! Two days ago, there were news reports that several travelers had died in the wild! ……”

The landlord's eldest sister chattered non-stop, but fortunately, a car came from behind, honked the horn vigorously, and she finally gave a few words before riding away on the electric car.

"Hoo ......"

When the figure of the landlord's eldest sister disappeared, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

This eldest sister is so capable of talking!

Under the suspicious gaze of the doorman and security guard, he walked towards the community, and the fat face of Wang Wudong, the director of the department, flashed in his mind.

TMD, if that grandson dares to come! You've got to beat him to death!

It is common to bully others, deduct wages if there is a slight mistake, and arrange overtime for people who do not want to be seen. He'd hated that guy for a long time, and now he didn't have to swallow his anger because of a big fart.

Returning from the wasteland this time, he had five hundred grams of gold bars in his storage space! He went to the bank vault near the building to get it.
