【040】Wordless Promise (Collect!) )
Chu Lei was stunned for a moment, for this question, the two of them have always tacitly agreed not to raise it, but this is obviously a problem that has always been between the two of them, and one day they will need to face it, he just didn't expect Su Ling to mention it in this situation, which made him feel caught off guard.
Chu Lei knew that Su Ling's goal was very clear, that is, to go to the South China Sea to find his parents who might still be alive!
His goal is also very pure, he just wants to live well, where to go is not a problem in his opinion, the problem is that he does not have the ability to go to the South China Sea now!
Now he is like a fallen leaf in the torrent, and it is not his choice to rise and fall at the end, so he can only passively bear the changes brought about by the end times......
Chu Lei turned his head and looked into Su Ling's eyes, seeing the longing in her eyes.
To be honest, Chu Lei is no longer wary of Su Ling now, since a long time of contact, he has identified with this naïve girl, but she is destined to move towards her goal, if she doesn't nod, then the future is predictable, Su Ling will find a way to go to the South China Sea, and the method is no longer important, because she will inevitably leave her at that time.
And if he promised, now he is not sure that he will fulfill his promise!
To this day, he still remembers the last phone call with his parents, the promise they made to come back before the Mid-Autumn Festival, but unfortunately this promise has not been fulfilled so far, and it is impossible to fulfill it, which also leads him to have an inexplicable fear of the promise.
“…… Live first. In the end, he still failed to make a promise that he might not be able to fulfill, maybe what Su Ling wanted was just a verbal promise from him, but for him, the promise must be fulfilled after it was made, which can be said to be a rare insistence for him.
"We're going to be able to live well." Su Ling opened her mouth and said, her expression was very serious, there was no excitement, no disappointment, only calm, as if she was narrating a fact, as if she was not surprised by Chu Lei's answer.
Su Ling's reaction somewhat surprised Chu Lei, but this is also what he wants to see, if he has the ability, he will not be stingy to help Su Ling, but this is no longer a question of whether to help or not, but whether he has the ability, Su Ling's recognition made him feel a strange emotional fluctuation, like warmth, and like recognition, although he did not say the promise, but he already had his own plan in his heart.
"Brother Chu, can you tell me about your past? You're not the same as anyone I've known before...... I'm sorry......" Su Ling opened her mouth and said, she had long been full of curiosity about Chu Lei's past, but as soon as the words came out, she regretted it a little, this is Chu Lei's privacy, he never said that there was a reason for him, and he might leave a bad impression in his heart if he explored it so rashly.
Even, she was ready to be scolded, but to her surprise, Chu Lei didn't blame her, but began to tell.
His voice was as calm as ever, as if he was telling a story that had nothing to do with him, but listening to it, Su Ling fell into a trance, and it was only then that she knew how similar Chu Lei's experience was to herself, and it also made her understand why people like Chu Lei accepted themselves so quickly, maybe Chu Lei once just regarded himself as a poor person who was sympathetic......
In Chu Lei's simple and clear narrative, time flies quickly, and Su Ling doesn't feel how long time has passed, but when she comes back to her senses from Chu Lei's story, the light around her already seems a little dark.
Before you know it, it's evening......
…………
In the daily necessities area, on the fourth floor, which is nearly two hundred meters high from the ground, the hiding place of Wang Hao's group is here, in an inverted stainless steel iron basin.
In the center of the stainless steel iron basin, a candle is placed. Illuminate this seemingly enclosed space transparently. Now this stainless steel iron basin has long been filled with most of the materials by these people, a warehouse that has escaped, and these are the results of their long-term efforts.
"Did he sense me?" Inside the iron basin, a dull voice echoed.
"Yes!" Xu Wenqing and Lin Na nodded at the same time.
"He's stronger than me, and although I can see him, I can't sense the fluctuations in his abilities." Wang Hao, the strongest powerhouse among the crowd, shook his head and said bluntly.
"I don't think so, I feel in him that the strength of the ability fluctuation is similar to yours, even if it is stronger, it should not be much stronger, and the other woman is much weaker than him." Xu Wenqing said that he was in front of Chu Lei at that time, and he was confident that his feelings were not wrong.
"You should be about the same as him." Lin Na nodded in agreement.
"It doesn't matter if it's strong or not, the ability can grow, did you ask if they killed the giant rat in the supermarket?" Wang Hao shook his head, since the outbreak of the end times, he has devoured a large amount of that magical energy, and those energies have also made him more powerful, so compared to this, he is more curious about how those giant rats died!
Because even if it is him, there is only one way to die in the face of mutant rats one-on-one, and besides, he found more than one giant rat corpse in the depths of the supermarket!
Xu Wenqing shook his head and said, "I don't know, when Lin Na and I talked about the giant rat, I deliberately observed his expression, and there was no change at all, and I don't know if he didn't care or didn't encounter it." ”
"This matter is not in a hurry, they don't seem to be leaving for the time being, tomorrow you go to contact them again, see what their plans are, only the two of them can get here from the residential building, there must be their advantages, even if you can't join us, you can also cooperate, after all, the supermarket is the most familiar to us now."
"That's no problem, but he already knows about you, and only me and Lin Na may not seem very sincere if you invite you." Xu Wenqing nodded, and then proposed.
Hearing this, Wang Hao could only smile bitterly, he knew that his current appearance could only be described as terrifying, although this brought him a powerful power that he could not think of before the end of the world, but he was still very envious of Xu Wenqing Linna, who had both abilities and could maintain his original appearance.
Fortunately, it is the end of the world, and these people around him are now gradually accustomed to his form, which makes his bitter heart a little comforted, after thinking about it, Wang Hao nodded and said: "Okay, you contact them first, give them a preventive shot, anyway, if they finally cooperate, they will eventually meet." ”
"Okay, let's rest early, we have to carry supplies tomorrow." Wang Hao clapped his hands, stood up and said.
Everyone nodded, their resting place was also in this warehouse, with the protection of the iron basin, they didn't need to worry about the invasion of other creatures, and soon, Wang Hao snuffed out the candle, and the iron basin was pitch black......
