Chapter 12: Home
Archways stand silently, tall shadows covering each other.
Some of the shadowy places on the ground are difficult to see even during the day.
As more and more people lay flat, these houses in the slums were built more and more, and they were built higher and higher.
In fact, not every house has people in it.
It's just that some houses have been made too dirty, and after the original owner disappeared for some inexplicable reason, no one took care of them anymore.
Jiang Bai took advantage of the light of the dome that had not yet completely darkened, and quickly walked through the damp path full of filth.
This is the place where the original Jiang Bai lived for seventeen years, and when he arrived here, Jiang Bai's body memory instantly awakened.
His body knew exactly how to live here.
"Pak~"
With one foot on the shallowest water, the sound travels far through the quiet path.
In the silent shadows, there seemed to be some gaze gently sweeping.
Along the way, Jiang Bai rarely saw the activities of human figures.
There are the most people in the Fourth Ring, and the life of the people in the Fourth Ring is also the most regular......
In the end, looking at the F4-7 fluorescent archway in front of him, Jiang Bai breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, darkness is always intimidating.
The correct and detailed address of Jiang Bai's home is: Building 7, F4 District, District D, Fourth Ring Road, City 26...... 808。
Stepping on the narrow corridor that he had walked thousands of times, Jiang Bai's steps were light.
In any case, there is no worse situation than in the past.
Lying in bed and dying with a serious illness, his greatest wish was to live a few more days.
Now, the wish has come true.
No matter what the future holds, he will accept it calmly.
Including, the only relative in memory - Jiang Bai's father.
Walking to the rusty iron door with the house number 808, Jiang Bai took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
Waited quietly for a moment, no response.
Jiang Bai frowned and knocked on the door again.
Still no response.
"Knock knock knock!"
"Don't knock! Your dad isn't home! ”
The door of room 09 next door suddenly opened, and the white fat with a naked upper body said impatiently to Jiang Bai, and then locked the door again with a "snap".
Jiang Bai raised his eyebrows, took a step back, and glanced up and down the iron door, thinking about how to get in.
You can't deal with this aisle all night, can you?
His eyes fell on the rusty iron door, and Jiang Bai had gradually felt that the familiar subtitles had quietly emerged.
[The iron gate, which is rusted to this extent, does not seem to be your one-foot enemy. 】
Farewell, farewell.
If you kick it, you have to fix it yourself.
Jiang Bai suppressed this dangerous thought.
At this moment, with a gentle "squeak", the door of room 07 slowly opened a crack, revealing a big head.
"Little white...... Little White ......"
Jiang Bai looked over, just seeing the outline, the familiar title crawled to his lips.
"Guoguo?"
The two are neighbors and grew up together.
I entered the college together again, and I was still in the same class, so the relationship was naturally good.
It's just that the way the two entered the academy was a little different.
Jiang Bai is the ability of money, and Guoguo is a superpower.
Jiang Bai has a relative with money and status, and Guoguo is purely on his own.
Guoguo, who has extraordinary memory ability and logical thinking ability, is a special talent of the college.
In fact, most of the children who were able to get out of the slums were similar geniuses.
And Guoguo really lived up to expectations, and has always been the first in the results of the same class in the same period.
In the future, it is inevitable that he will take his mother out of the slums.
The first time he saw Guoguo, these memories of Guoguo naturally jumped into Jiang Bai's heart.
"Know me...... Where's that old thing? ”
Even if they accept all the memories, for Jiang Bai today, they can only be regarded as familiar strangers.
The word "dad" didn't come out, and it was replaced by a word that the original body often called that man.
Jiang Bai couldn't see Guoguo's face in the dark, he could only see him stretching out his hand and handing something to Jiang Bai, and at the same time heard his somewhat weak tone.
"No...... I don't know where my uncle went. ”
Gambling again......
Hearing this tone, familiar memories instantly came to my heart.
"Hey~"
With a sigh, Jiang Bai took the key handed over by Guoguo.
I used to go to school in Jiangbai...... Or when you skip class and go out to surf, if there is no one at home when you come back, most of it is the development of today.
The scene is reproduced, so that some gray memory fragments instantly jump out of the long river of memory and come alive.
Seeing that Jiang Bai took the key, Guoguo said softly and closed the door carefully.
"See you tomorrow ......"
Skillfully opened the door with the key, and reached for the switch on the wall.
"Pak~"
The crisp sound of the switch sounded, but nothing was heard in the room.
This month's electricity quota has obviously been used up by that old thing.
Jiang Bai stood in the darkness and shook his head, and reflexively closed the door.
With the memory of the original body, he does not feel repulsed by these strange circumstances now, and in addition to the numb habit, there is even a little joy of rebirth.
Being able to live again, Jiang Bai's eyes on everything in this world now are excited.
In the dark silence, my stomach growled twice.
At this time, it was close to seven o'clock in the evening, and Jiang Bai, who had encountered many things in this short period of time, was already hungry.
rummaged through the familiar home in the dark, and only then did I find a pack of instant meat steaks under the familiar bed.
The food provided by the subsistence allowance is all synthetic.
Needless to say, all the nutrients needed by the human body are properly balanced and healthy.
But this flavor ...... It can only be said that the city welfare center, which is responsible for making subsistence food, has done its best.
It is their goal to try to simulate the taste of a variety of different kinds of real food.
It's a pity that the fake is the fake, and the first bite in the mouth seems to be full of the aroma of food, but as long as you chew it twice, it immediately loses its taste and becomes a sticky, smooth and tasteless thing.
The taste is the same as chewing wax.
Even Jiang Bai, who was full of curiosity about things in the new era, gave up the idea of chewing slowly after two bites, and swallowed a bag of meat steaks with a gulp.
Then he turned on the faucet and poured two mouthfuls of real pure water, and Jiang Bai, who was full of food and drink, went to the bathroom at the back of the room and rinsed his body with cold water at will, and then lay down comfortably on his kennel.
Pull back the curtains next to the bed so that the next day's dome light can shine on his face as soon as possible.
Cushioning the pillow, Jiang Bai's excited eyes stared blankly at the ceiling in the dark.
Ever since he woke up, the scenes that had happened flashed through his mind.
It was only now that he had the opportunity to calmly go back and think thoroughly.
He's dead.
But he lived again.
A bunch of weird guys pulled him out of his hospital bed and into the new era.
They had a bald captain with a fierce face who didn't look like a good man, but was actually the most gentle and delicate in heart.
There is a young lady drag racer with a scar on her face that should be intimidating, but exudes another heroic charm.
There's a rough appearance.,Irritable.,Looks fierce.,But it's a good head-changer for his own people.。
There's a technician who looks calm on the outside, but actually has the heart of a child.
Oh...... There is also a handsome little white-faced guy who seems to owe him a small goal.
Do you want to do it with them?
"Phew!"
Jiang Bai shook his head suddenly, dispelling his dangerous thoughts.
Should you have in-depth contact with them and persuade them to be good?
After all, it doesn't seem like everyone is a bad person, right?
