22 Demons in the night
Kiki didn't think she was hungry yet, but when she saw the sun setting and knew it was time for dinner, she finally nodded.
It's said to be cooking, but apart from instant noodles, you can't make any hot food.
He Jun was about to take advantage of the sun before the sun went down to get some hot water instant noodles, but his eyes inadvertently swept over the tablet on the sofa, saw the open protective cover, couldn't help but be stunned, and snatched the tablet into his hand.
"Uncle He is so stingy!" Kiki, who was about to play a little longer, accused.
The excited He Jun turned his head and saw Qiqi stretching out half of her hand, only then did he understand what she meant, and couldn't help but secretly laugh, after all, he was still a child, so he wanted to play.
He pulled the tablet out of the protective case and handed it to the little girl: "Who said uncle was stingy?" No, play for you! ”
Kiki swept away her previous depression and happily took it: "Thank you, uncle!" ”
He Jun touched the top of Qiqi's head dotingly, and looked over and over again with the hard protective cover.
"Uncle, you've been watching for a long time, what are you going to do?" Kiki opened the tablet and asked curiously in the gap between boots.
"I'm going to make a scabbard out of it!" He Jun said with a smile.
The texture of the tablet's protective case is neither soft nor hard, and in order to act as a stand, there are originally several creases, and He Jun feels that he can use the original creases to complete his plan.
Kiki didn't care about the scabbard at all, and when she heard this, she just sighed, and lowered her head and tinkered with the tablet wholeheartedly.
He Jun found the right materials, even forgot about cooking, compared the protective sleeve with a knife for a while before making up his mind, carefully cut the protective sleeve, used a stapler to nail the folded protective sleeve skin densely together, and smeared a layer of 502 glue on the interface, solidified the raw edge of the cut, and finally inserted the dagger into the scabbard to be completed.
Although the workmanship of the scabbard was very crude, with this thing, he was able to carry a dagger as long as he could with him without having to worry about accidentally stabbing himself twice.
However, the DIY scabbard with a protective case is not a serious thing after all, and it must wear out faster than a professional scabbard, so just in case, he used the remaining protective case to make two additional scabbards.
He Jun also planned to sew something like a belt buckle on the scabbard so that he could carry the knife on his body, but it took a lot of time to DIY the scabbard, and the sky was gradually getting dark.
Soon, the two pieces of dough soaked in the steaming water under Kiki's expectant gaze, and by the time the bowl was served, it was almost dark.
"Uncle!" Kiki twisted her body in extreme dissatisfaction, "It's so dark, how can you eat it?" ”
"I'm in a hurry, I'm going to find a candle." He Jun turned on his mobile phone and walked into the bathroom, and after a while, he found half a red candle.
The light of the candle dispelled the darkness, and Kiki happily enjoyed the hot instant noodles, but He Jun glanced thoughtfully out the window.
The sun had completely sunk beyond the horizon, and the outside was plunged into darkness, leaving only a huge shadow in Building 13 facing the floor-to-ceiling windows of the living room.
In this oppressive shadow, I don't know when the sporadic candlelight lit up, and there are also a few windows lit up with the faint light of a flashlight flickering on and off.
He Jun probably counted them, and sadly found that only a very small number of windows had light.
Perhaps some of the occupants have neither candles nor flashlights, but at least they have telephones, which means that the vast majority of dwellings have lost their owners.
Humanity's yearning for light will not change at any time or place, even in dangerous prehistoric times.
He suddenly remembered that some solar floor lamps had been installed in the community square, and he didn't know if they were still there, so it would be better to find a way to get a few back - he didn't plan to use them for lighting, but he fell in love with the photovoltaic cells installed in the floor lamps.
With that thing, you might be able to charge your phone and tablet!
Thinking of this, He Jun couldn't help but think of what happened during the day, and couldn't help but sigh again about the impermanence of life...... Perhaps, those who were killed, more fortunate than survivors like him, at least did not have to face this cruel and desperate world.
"Uncle, why don't you eat?" Kiki asked with a wink of black and white eyes.
"Nothing." He Jun smiled slightly, took a mouthful of noodles and stuffed it into his mouth.
What's the use of feeling so much? It's better to die than to live, and since you don't have the courage to commit suicide, you have to live well.
Try to stay alive!
He Jun gulped down the noodle soup in the bowl.
After eating, He Jun was about to pick up the lights and fight at night, adding accessories to the scabbard, when there was a sudden muffled "bang" on the window glass of the kitchen.
"Uncle, what's the sound? It's not a dinosaur, is it? Qiqi, who was afraid of the dark, grabbed He Jun's arm.
"Probably not." He Jun subconsciously blocked Qiqi behind him, "Let's be on the third floor, seven or eight meters high......"
Before the words fell, there were two muffled "knocks" on the window pane.
Kiki threw herself into He Jun's arms, hugged his waist tightly, and bit her lip tightly.
He Jun subconsciously hugged the little girl tightly and vigilously blew out the candle.
The crashing sound didn't stop, but this time it came from the floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room.
He Jun's heart was relieved, he gently patted Qiqi's shoulder, and whispered, "Don't worry, it's okay to have an uncle." ”
Qiqi still refused to let go of He Jun, and asked timidly, "Uncle, what is that?" ”
"Just check it out." He Jun said.
"Don't!" Kiki instinctively refused.
He Jun didn't care whether the little girl could see it or not, and smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, it's okay." After saying that, he pulled Kiki into the living room.
Qiqi was still leaning on him, He Jun patted the top of the little girl's head and said, "Don't worry, the windows are filled with tempered glass, even if it's a dinosaur, it can't be broken." ”
It's really a Tyrannosaurus rex, and it is estimated that the bulletproof glass can't stand it, but the recipe of a top predator like a Tyrannosaurus rex should be a herbivorous dinosaur of the same size, not a human who is not enough to stuff his teeth!
In the same way, if it was a large dinosaur outside the window, the impact would not be so light.
So He Jun has every reason to believe that no matter what is outside the window, it will not threaten the personal safety of the two of them!
Qiqi nervously followed He Jun to the floor-to-ceiling window, looked out with wide eyes, but couldn't see anything clearly, and hugged He Jun's arm tightly and tightly.
He Jun also put all his strength into his eyes, staring carefully at the dark night outside the window.
He suddenly discovered that the clear night sky was full of stars at some point, and even the weakest stars could have a place in the starry sky!
