Chapter 18: Suspicion

The world marathon record was set by East African star Dennis in two hours and two minutes, and Chu Zheng came to his parents' community in less than half an hour. This speed was almost the same as that of a car, and along the way, Chu Zheng couldn't remember how many monsters he had killed, he only knew that the moment he touched the door of the community, his Yuan Energy Boundary had successfully reached the sixth level of the zero orderβ€”52%.

The hometown is even more timid, and he doesn't dare to ask anyone, not to mention that there is no one to ask in front of Chu Zheng.

"Squeak-" As the electric door was slowly opened, Chu Zheng's heart also pinched at this moment. He took a deep breath and ran towards the interior of the community, turning the intersection in the community, a huge pothole appeared in front of him, surrounded by the ruins of the collapsed buildings, and the stubborn steel bars seemed to be trying to pull the bricks, but unfortunately they couldn't pull anymore. In the center, there is a satellite, which is in tatters at the moment.

"Nope! No! Chu Zheng's solemn expression became excited in an instant, at this moment, he didn't have that kind of extra emotion to grieve the residents in the building, the building where his parents lived was next to this building, although the glass on the five floors below was all shattered, but fortunately, the building was not damaged. Although it was a little cold-blooded to say, the moment he saw that the deceased was not his family, Chu Zheng's heart was secretly happy, and he even snickered a little.

I don't know why, he was originally a little physically exhausted, but at this moment, he actually had a little more strength. Just as Chu Zheng was about to cross the pit and return home, he was interrupted by a voice.

"I don't know where you're going, but I don't think there's anyone here." This was a cold male voice, Chu Zheng looked at it, only to find that at some point, there was a person standing next to the fallen satellite. It was a man who looked to be twenty-seven or eighteen years old, thin and slender, with a fair face with a soft outline, and a pair of narrow eyes under small silver-white round-rimmed glasses. If these eyes appeared on someone else, it might make people think that they were small, but this man was full of a bevelous charm, his lips were thin, and the corners of his lips were slightly raised to look a bit cynical smile.

Chu Zheng looked at the man in front of him, his expression was a little solemn, he knew very well that there was absolutely no such man next to the satellite before, but what was more important than what this man said. "What did you mean when you said there were no living people around here?"

"Not without the living, but without the man." The man corrected Chu Zheng's speech problem, and then added: "Not only is there no one, but there are also no strange things like zombies. The man pushed his glasses and looked at Chu Zheng with interest. Were you an ordinary person before? It is really the work of heaven and earth. ”

The man's words made Chu Zheng feel very strange, especially this semi-popular and semi-vernacular way of expressing it was even more bizarre. "How do you know there's no one left? Have you seen it all? Chu Zheng asked.

The man shook his head and said flatly: "You don't need to personally inspect this seat, everywhere you go, things within a radius of thousands of kilometers cannot escape the ears of this seat." ”

"What kind of nonsense is this? Return to this seat? Are people who are almost 30 also suffering from the second disease? Just thinking about it, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in Chu Zheng's mind, and he couldn't help blurting out: "Are you a congenital?" ”

"The Ingenital?" The man frowned slightly, and said with a little displeasure: "All of life is innate; The person (Ken) is the acquired. This seat is a cultivator, all of them are acquired cultivation, how can it be classified as innate? I don't know why, in Chu Zheng's opinion, others are frowning, but it seems more appropriate to frown on the man in front of him.

Although Chu Zheng didn't quite understand the first half of what he said, he still heard the second half of the sentence very clearly, although the person in front of him didn't recognize the word congenital, but he was still the innate person that the system said. "Since you said there was no one around here, do you know where they all went?"

"I don't know." The man shook his head and said, "You were here when I got here." Compared to this, this seat is more interested in you. As soon as the man's voice fell, he had already appeared in front of Chu Zheng, and the index finger of his right hand pointed forward and pressed it towards Chu Zheng's chest.

The man's words made Chu Zheng even more worried about his parents' situation now, but at this moment, the man suddenly made a move, and Chu Zheng couldn't care so much. Twisting his waist, swinging his fist, his right fist was mixed with the little remaining Yuan Energy, and hit the man's fingers.

"Bang", Chu Zheng only felt a huge force coming from the junction of his fist and fingers, and his body involuntarily fell backwards, but fortunately, at this moment, Chu Zheng's body coordination ability was excellent, and when he was about to fall, he retreated more than a dozen steps in a row, relieving this force. However, the fist itself and the arm did not feel pain, thinking about this finger, the man did not mean to hurt Chu Zheng.

"Very good." The man complimented, stood with his hands in his hands, and turned to study the satellite, as if nothing had happened before.

Chu Zheng looked at the man in front of him and had a somewhat complicated mood, Chu Zheng has been constantly getting stronger, although there are also desperate fights, but they have also turned the danger into a disaster. If he didn't have a little pride, it was impossible, after all, in Chu Zheng's opinion, he was much stronger than Han Ze and the like. But the strength shown by this man was different from the monsters Chu Zheng had encountered before, just like a person looking up at the top of the mountain at the foot of the mountain, no matter how you look at it, you can't look at it. This made Chu Zheng a little disappointed, but also had a higher goal, if he could also have the strength of the person in front of him, many things would develop for the better. Thinking of this, Chu Zheng opened his mouth and asked, "I don't know the name of the senior?" Because the man's tone of speech was half-literate and half-white, Chu Zheng had no choice but to ask questions in this tone.

"This seat is autumn and white." The man did not look back and continued to study Sputnik.

"Qiu Junbai." Chu Zheng read silently, the man's pronunciation was very strange, and there was a slight pause between the word Qiujun and the white character, but he still turned his pace in the direction of going home. Although Qiu Junbai had already told Chu Zheng that there was no one nearby, Chu Zheng still had to make sure with his own eyes. As soon as he walked into the corridor, looking at the open doors and messy houses, Chu Zheng actually knew that what Qiu Junbai said was not wrong. But he still walked to the floor of his house and walked into his own home. The house looked a little messy, as if it had left in a hurry, and the refrigerator door was still open, constantly flashing and chirping.

Where did they go? Did you leave on your own initiative, or was you forced to relocate by someone? Why is the whole neighborhood gone? When was it removed? Chu Zheng thought silently, although no one could give him an answer.

When Chu Zheng walked downstairs, he found that Qiu Junbai was waiting for him, and in Qiu Junbai's hand, he was still holding something the size of a fist. "It's interesting to see what this thing is, show you." Qiu Junbai said, saying that the thing was thrown over.

"What is this?" Chu Zheng took it in his hand and looked at it, the east and west were square, the bottom was slightly wider, full of small holes, and the top was a thumb-thick hole. Chu Zheng held it in his hand and looked at it for a long time, but he didn't see a meridian.

"I'm also puzzled." Qiu Junbai pointed to the fallen artificial satellite and said: "On the side of this thing, there are thirteen small things, and there is no formation in the direction of the arrangement, it should be the technological product you are talking about." ”

Chu Zheng listened to Qiu Junbai's words, and also walked to the side of the artificial satellite, just as Qiu Junbai said, the bottom of this thing is attached to the side of the satellite, and the hole with the thickness of the thumb is facing outward. Chu Zheng broke it hard, and found that the bottom adsorption force was very strong, and he needed to move a little with all his strength. But looking at the position where Qiu Junbai went down, there were no common traces of artificial welding, as if it was just simply adsorbed. "Is it new technology?" Chu Zheng thought silently.

"Huh?" Qiu Junbai raised his head, looked at a certain direction to the west, frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and said to Chu Zheng: "There are still important things in this seat, so don't leave it at that." Before he could finish speaking, his whole body turned into a silver streamer, piercing the dull lilac night sky, and disappeared in an instant.

"Don't ...... It's been a long time. Chu Zheng watched Qiu Junbai disappear into the sky in a daze, and those two words were just one word, it was really fast. Although this man spoke in a strange way, fortunately there was no malice. Chu Zheng thought about it, and decided to go back to Cao Wei and Xiang Baogang first. Although I didn't see my parents on this trip, I was fortunate to be sure that my parents did not die because of this downed artificial satellite.

With the thing that Qiu Junbai picked off, Chu Zheng, who re-embarked on the road, walked relatively smoothly, perhaps because along the way, the things that originally intercepted him were crushed by him before, but it was also calm. It only took an hour to return to the temporary residence of the people.

It was Cao Wei who opened the door, and Xiang Baogang, who was sitting on the sofa, was nibbling on a bag of ready-to-eat pig's trotters, she looked at Chu Zheng's expression, and let out a series of strange screams, "Yo Yo Yo, the little crying bag is back." ”

After confirming that his parents were okay for the time being, Chu Zheng's mood also relaxed, and he looked at Baosteel and teased. "Baosteel, eat less, you will be killed if you eat too much."

"Bah, bah, Lao Tzu was born not to eat fat, and others can't envy him." Xiang Baosteel smacked his lips, threw the pig's trotters into the trash at once, and asked with a big grin: "Tell me, what's going on." ”

Only then did Chu Zheng tell what had happened and everything he had seen. After listening to Chu Zheng's narration, everyone fell into silence, except for Fan Fan, because she was already asleep in the house.

"Brother Chu, what is the name of that community you are talking about?" Cao Wei bit her lip and asked.

"Splendid Hwaseong." As Chu Zheng finished saying this, Cao Wei's face suddenly became ugly.

"Xiaowei? I remember you said, your parents? Xiang Baosteel asked hesitantly.

"My parents are also in Jinxiu Huacheng, but it is a building close to the outer street, not the center of the community as Brother Chu said." Cao Wei nodded, looking a little masterless.

"Don't worry, you also heard what your brother Chu said, it's just missing, it is estimated that he was rescued by the organization." Xiang Baosteel comforted and kicked Chu Zheng with his foot. "You just follow your Brother Chu, if he can find it, you will definitely be able to."

Chu Zheng reacted and hurriedly continued: "Well, yes, I guess I was also rescued." ”

"Okay, okay, I'm tired of the day, let's rest first, and I'll talk about something tomorrow." Xiang Baogang helped Cao Wei up, pushed Chu Zheng with his elbow, gave you a look at yourself, and returned to the house.

"This woman." Chu Zheng looked at the backs of the two of them leaving, shook his head, and returned to his room, thinking about everything that happened today, like a dream bubble, thinking about Qiu Junbai's strength, thinking about where he should go to find his parents, thinking about thinking about it and falling asleep.

This night, I don't know how many people can go to sleep, and I don't know how many people can still go to sleep.
