Snowy, an SUV with snow chains slowly drove on the snowy road.

Driving all the way to the northeast, the temperature around is getting lower and lower, and snowflakes fall in the air from time to time, wrapping a white layer of winter clothes for the ups and downs of the mountains along the way.

It doesn't take long for the trail to be covered by fresh snowfall.

The fog on the windows was so thick that it was almost impossible to see inside from the outside. If you get close enough, you may be able to hear classical music coming out of the car, sometimes melodious and graceful, sometimes shocking.

Jaime reached out and wiped the new fog from the windshield.

At the moment, he was concentrating on distinguishing the road conditions ahead, for fear that he would accidentally sleep in the ice and snow.

In the passenger seat, Ruby was holding Andrew and looking out the window. Occasionally, he tentatively glanced back at Nadia, and before the other party could notice, she quickly turned back. She was a little scared and didn't dare to sit with Nadia, so Jiang Ke and Nadia sat in the back row.

The car is solar-powered and the amount of energy it can absorb decreases as the hours of daylight decrease. But even so, they still turned on the air conditioner very comfortably. The car was like a moving tent, sheltering them from the wind and snow.

Jaime shoved a potato chip into his mouth, making a crisp "click" sound. His head follows the melody of classical music, rocking gracefully.

Jiang Ke broke this silence.

He turned to look at Nadia and asked, "Even if we find them, do you have any plans?" ”

Nadia tilted her head and made her point very simple and clear, "We'll kill them all." ”

Ruby sat in front of her and frowned, obviously very resistant to the Slots.

Jaime glanced at Ruby, then looked at Nadia in the rearview mirror, and said in her tone, "This is your 'highly intelligent' civilized way of doing things?" We'll kill them all! It seems to me that you are no different from those so-called hawks. Among your bestsellers, is there a copy of "The Holocaust" that has been at the top of the list for many years? ”

Nadia's lips twitched twice, and she swallowed back the words she had wanted to hit back at Jaime.

Obviously, she is a person who keeps her promises very much.

"Do you know how many they are?" Jiang Ke changed the way he asked questions.

Nadia shook her head helplessly, and in Jaime's skeptical gaze, she said, "Learn from your words and act when the opportunity comes." I can't express a sentence that's too complicated. ”

Jiang Ke didn't ask her anything more, he seemed to understand what Nadia meant, and what she said about "killing them" was the final result she hoped for. Because she knew that her compatriots had no hope of survival.

However, such hatred is the same for the people of the earth.

The car drove for a short while, and Jaime glanced at the value dial. Although the time was only in the afternoon, the sunshine had ended, and the car's power had reached the threshold they had set - in order to ensure the temperature in the car at night and set off normally in case of emergency, Jiang Ke set a basic value of the car's energy.

Whatever happens, once this base value is reached, the car must stop and be ready for the next solar charge.

Jaime had to stop the car.

“Pull，over。” Jaime said in Optimus Prime's tone, but no one responded to him.

These days are very difficult, and the time I can act every day is only 6 hours. The rest of the time, except for going to the toilet, I basically waited in the car. As the temperature outside became lower and lower, several people would have gotten out of the car to carry out activities, but now they are honestly staying in the car, silently waiting for the sunrise.

The snow was falling heavily, and the cold wind was howling outside the window. After a while, the car was buried in the snow, leaving only traces of a small snow bag from a distance.

A few people sat in the dark for I don't know how long, and the car periodically trembled slightly.

"Oh...... My legs ......," Jaime tried to stretch his limbs in the car, "it's a bit heavy under the snow, and if I can't open the door tomorrow, it'll be over." Three people, a dog and an alien, were buried alive under the snow-capped mountains of Asla. Hundreds of years from now, maybe some historian from another planet will come and dig us up. Because of the freezing, our corpses will be preserved to life. Maybe it's the first time they've seen earthlings or Slots. ”

Jaime whispered.

With a "snap", Jiang Ke opened the rear door a crack, and the cold wind wrapped in the falling snow poured in in an instant.

"Close the door! Close the door! Jaime shouted.

Ruby pulled the collar up, lowering the brim.

Jiang Ke had no intention of closing the door.

He tilted his head sideways and watched the air through the crack in the door, and the snow was indeed getting heavier and heavier. However, the slight sound in the distance and the slight vibration of the car were not due to the snow.

A helicopter whizzed by, and the searchlight shone far away, making it very conspicuous in the air.

"1800 seconds." Jiang Ke read silently.

Jiang Ke has been silently counting the interval of the cycle, and this time he calculated the amount of advance before opening the car door.

Nadia glanced at the air, and then said to Jiang Ke, "What do you seem to have found?" ”

Jiang Ke closed the door of the car and said in a deep voice, "We have entered a patrol circle. Thanks to this snowstorm, our tracks were hidden. They didn't notice us. But I'm not sure it's Alita. ”

The hot air in the car came into contact with the cold air from the outside world, formed ice, and hung around the doors, and now it was obvious that it was impossible to close the doors.

Jiang Ke thought twice and said, "Get out of the car!" We hiked. ”

Since it has entered the patrol range of the other side, it is obviously unrealistic to use the vehicle again. Moreover, they were also lucky today, not only did they have this huge snowstorm to cover them, but when they parked, they also happened to be in the other party's patrol interval.

Several people obeyed Jiang Ke's command, they quickly sorted out their things, and quickly got off the car at the helicopter interval.

Jaime fiddled with his earhook walkie-talkie and said, "I'm kind of nostalgic for my lab." ”

These walkie-talkies were recovered by Jiang Ke from the corpses of "down jackets" and others when Rubi was repairing the vehicle.

In order to prevent them from jumping into trouble after approaching Alita's company, Ruby was specially asked to debug.

Jiang Ke smiled lightly and said a sentence in Chinese, "You can't live by doing it yourself." ”

"Uh-huh......" Nadia replied with approval.

"What do you say? Can you translate it? Do you know you're being rude to do that? Nadia could understand Jiang Ke's words, but he couldn't, which made Jaime a little unhappy.

Jiang Ke added, "I said that you are very interesting, and you are willing to give up a comfortable environment to follow us." And, of course, Ruby and Andrew. ”

Jaime didn't know when he drew a red cross on the sleeve of his coat, and he pointed there, and said, "I have to do both, and I'm doing both." ”

The group walked cautiously forward. Along the way, they took advantage of the blind spots of the terrain to avoid being detected by helicopters. It wasn't until the helicopter was heard that it was back on the road.

Jaime pointed to a section of the guardrail that had been knocked off by a car and said to a few people, "Wow! Look! You have to thank me, Lord James, for not killing. ”

Ruby leaned curiously against the guardrail and looked down, vaguely seeing the wreckage of a car at the bottom of the valley.

I don't know if the people in the car escaped, she thought to herself.

And Jiang Ke is still calm, he is unmoved, testing the way forward in front of him, and taking the lead for everyone.

At one of the turntables, he was attracted by the various shapes of signs on the island, especially one of them, which looked as if it had just been cleaned. Jiang Ke stretched out his hand and knocked on the sign, and the snow on it fell partially, revealing the word "refuge" written on it.

Nadia stood behind Jiang Ke and carefully looked at the sign, "Are we close?" She asked.

Jiang Ke pointed to the sign, "Well, we're approaching." The sign pointed to a human survivor colony. Maybe we'll find some clue there. ”

Jaime looked at the two people in front of him who were looking at the sign, leaned in, and asked, "Hey! Any good news? Is it written that there is a motel in front of it? ”

"I don't know if there's a sign for the hotel's service, but it looks like there's a survivor camp again." Jiang Ke looked ahead, and within the range of his eyesight, there were all brands with uniform specifications and similar sizes, extending out.

"Let's take a look." As he spoke, he walked on.

"Wait......" Jaime jumped twice in the snow, trying to make a running pose.

As he passed the sign, Jaime mischievously flew up, "Ada! Then he took two quick steps and caught up with the people in front of him.

On the sign he kicked in, snow fell one after another, and the snow on the word "shelter" was rolled down, revealing the logo of Alita.

However, no one noticed.
