After leaving the Jinan Military Region, Liu Chang went to Beijing alone, and he was already very familiar with the routes of Beijing and Jinan, and the roads between the jungle were faster and more convenient, and he also kept them in mind, so under the familiar road, the time spent on his journey was even less.

When I arrived in Beijing, the time was just over eight o'clock in the evening, which was the most leisurely time of the day for people according to the habits of human life before the end of the world.

However, after the end of the world, people changed their living habits, and at night in the city of Beijing, there was no power equipment, and it seemed to be dead and silent.

"Alas, there is still no change here." Liu Chang looked up at the dilapidated high-rise buildings around him, thinking of the prosperity here that used to be, he also sighed, "If there is no threat from willows, I think this city is much better than now." ”

The air was cold, and although the surrounding rooms were not sparsely populated, there were very few pedestrians walking around the streets after the sun had gone down - it was too cold. And even if you can occasionally see two or three people, they must be carrying prey, or looking in a hurry.

After the end times, especially after the cold winter, survival became the first topic.

"If you can still think of traveling in the last days, I'm also a privileged class, right?" Liu Chang looked at these people who were struggling on the edge of life and death, and there was a rare sense of superiority in his heart.

This sense of superiority was very inexplicable, and when Liu Chang noticed it, he found that it might have been because of the excessive pain of his life in the past four years. All the while, he was like everyone around him. He has endured more danger and pain than these people in Beijing in the past year, but after surviving one difficulty after another, he feels that he is struggling out of the realm of survival step by step, and even now he can lead his family to travel.

This is where the sense of superiority comes from - simple and genuine.

Walking like a fly, running on the dilapidated streets of Beijing, Liu Chang's heart is like an arrow.

He's fast. When he arrived at the entrance of the institute in the dark of night, none of the sentinels standing in the cold winter night sky noticed his existence, and ran all the way into the institute. Then he saw a girl waiting for him at the door with a surprised face.

"Feel me?" Liu Chang asked.

"Hmm." Xiao Jing walked to his side with a smile and stopped talking.

"What about the others?"

"As soon as I felt your breath, it came out. The others were still busy with their own business in the house. Li Feng and Milan seem to be trying to find their lost relatives before the end of the world through the means of the Beijing Research Institute. Sister Zhizhi and the eldest and the three of them went out, and Aunt Qingyin was in the room. Xiao Jing said one by one: "Uncle Lei Laohu seems to be obsessed with watching SpongeBob SquarePants recently, and that tall Mr. Liu has not woken up yet." ”

"Thunder Tiger is obsessed with watching SpongeBob SquarePants?" When Liu Chang heard the news, he felt a burst of energy, "Haha, let's go, let's go see him." ”

As Liu Chang spoke, he pulled Xiao Jing into the room of the research institute together, this time Liu Chang did not hide his figure as much as when he followed the courtyard gate. But the two soldiers at the door of the hand house saw that it was Liu Chang, and obviously knew that he was a frequent visitor here, and saluted him with a standard military salute.

I have to say that the military salute of the Chinese people is always the most standardized.

Under the gaze of the two soldiers, Liu Chang entered the research institute. Then following the direction in his memory, and the stench of not taking a bath for a long time emanating from Lei Laohu's body, Liu Chang first entered his ward.

"It's so quiet, you're here." After Liu Chang opened the door, he smiled happily at Lei Laohu: "I remember that before I left, you were still noisy every day." I can hear your roar every day next door to you, what's wrong now? ”

"Ouch, you're back?" Hearing Liu Chang "bang" open the iron electronic door and stand there shouting, Lei Laohu, who was half-lying, suddenly became energetic, put down the computer on the hospital bed, and sat up with a "Teng", "Why did you come back so quickly?" I heard that the people at the bottom of the sea were completely wiped out by the willow tree with one move, is the news true? Is the willow really that powerful? ”

Seeing Lei Laohu sitting up so quickly, Liu Chang quipped: "It seems that your body is almost recovered?" ”

"Well, it's almost, if it weren't for the little nurse who didn't let me get out of bed, I would have basically been able to walk on the ground, it's Lao Liu's guy, it seems that he hasn't stabilized yet." Lei Laohu talked about himself, and then talked about Lao Liu next door, "That guy's body is still not good, and it is already a miracle that he can survive under the nuclear bomb." But these days, his condition has stabilized, and I hope he can wake up soon. It's a pity that this guy died, although I don't know him well, but I admire these characters who are similar to Lao Zhang. ”

"Well, I'll go see him later." Liu Chang nodded, and then chatted with Lei Laohu about some parents and the most important current affairs at the moment.

He first told Lei Laohu everything he had seen in the past few days, including the defeat of the amphibious people and the catkins of the willow tree. asked Lei Laohu why he liked SpongeBob SquarePants, and finally listened to Lei Laohu say a few things about Li Qingshui's recent big moves in the Beijing Military Region, and finally left this ward.

After leaving Lei Laohu's ward, Liu Chang went to visit Lao Liu, Qingyin and others.

Milan and Li Feng are okay to say that they are just ordinary people, and now they live in the Beijing Research Institute, and they continue to make some connections up and down through the actions of Li Qingshui and other high-level officials, hoping to find their relatives and friends who were separated before the end of the world - obviously, some relatives of these two people were not in the same city as them when the end of the world happened, so as the most ordinary will of ordinary people, they want to know if there are any of these relatives alive.

This is perfectly normal behavior.

And Qingyin obviously didn't have such good luck, all her relatives died in front of her - whether it was a close relative or a nephew and other relatives at the marginal point, after dying one by one, this woman lost her thoughts, and it seemed that she could still forget some of the days when she was constantly seeking survival in the jungle, and now in the institute, without fear every day, she has a lot of time to immerse herself in painful thoughts.

When Liu Chang saw her again, he found that this young mother, who was once quite beautiful, was already haggard at this time.

Sometimes, survival is also a necessary busyness. (To be continued)
