Chapter 27: A night of warmth, Zhao Yueran woke up
"When the smog started, I was partying with a few senior sisters from film schools, and I made an appointment to take my children to the playground to play all day, but I didn't expect the end of the world to happen."
"In the haze, Sister Lin and Sister Zhou died at that time, and so did their children, Sister Liu and I drove out of the city together, but she began to mutate halfway, I was frightened, I didn't know what to do, so I had to find a small shop to hide in."
Zhao Yueran curled up in my arms and murmured that she had been hiding in the small shop for two whole days before she came out to look for food, but by chance she met a middle-aged couple and drove out of the city.
"They were very nice and invited us to get in the car, but they ......" Zhao Yueran's body began to tremble.
"Got a monster?" I hurriedly hugged her, asked softly, and kissed.
"No, we met those three scumbags, they shot and killed the couple, and tried to snatch the vehicle, but they didn't think that a stray bullet broke the engine......" Zhao Yueran smiled bitterly.
I've seen the irony of escaping the monsters without escaping the clutches of humanity themselves.
After that, things were simple, the three scumbags saw that Zhao Yueran was beautiful, and suddenly had evil thoughts, so they wanted to kidnap her and escape together, but they were blocked by monsters in the community, and they had to pry open a house to hide, and they have been hiding until now.
Zhao Yueran said that there was a girl in her twenties with her before, the daughter of the couple, who was also kidnapped by those scumbags, but jumped to her death on the third day because she couldn't survive the insult.
Zhao Yueran said that she also thought about dying, but she couldn't let go of her two children, in order to let her children live, she had to endure no matter how humiliating she was, but she didn't expect that those scum would force her children to go out to find food and be exposed under the noses of monsters.
"I'm glad I met you, little Caoyang, I'm really grateful to you." Zhao Yueran said softly, and kissed again, and the kiss was obviously a little emotional.
It's not a reciprocation, just a little bit of gratitude when I delivered her from hell, though it may only be tonight.
"What about your husband?" I asked something I shouldn't have asked, and almost slapped myself in the face.
Zhao Yueran smiled bitterly and shook his head: "He was lucky, he didn't experience this apocalypse, and died of a heart attack the year before last." ”
Mmmm, that's fine, the guilt in my heart has diminished.
"Little Cao Yang, what about you? What's the matter with the Awakened you are talking about, you say that the strong man and the girl outside are not human? Zhao Yueran leaned on my chest and asked, looking like a curious baby, which made my heart sweet.
Kissing her on the cheek, I began to tell about what had happened in the past few days, including the Awakened, including the future, and even mentioned the experience in school, Chen Hui and Fang Min, Lin Xiu and Xia Mingxuan, and the Zhao family brothers later.
I don't know why I have to say it in such detail, but it feels so good to hug her, and I want to answer whatever she asks, and I don't hide it.
Zhao Yueran admired Lin Xiu and Xia Mingxuan, and felt sorry for Chen Hui and Fang Min, when she heard the Zhao family brothers, she pulled her little face and looked hateful, but at the same time, her brows gradually wrinkled.
"Little Cao Yang, what are your plans for in the future?" Zhao Yueran asked suddenly.
"Well, I don't have any plans, I just want to find my sister back, and then train my strength to protect her, and then find a place to survive together." I replied, and at the same time added in my heart, if Zhao Yueran is willing, I will also bring them, and even if she is willing, I hope to take care of her for the rest of her life, not just tonight.
I really fell in love with her, but to my surprise, Zhao Yueran shook her head.
"Xiao Caoyang, I don't know if it's appropriate to say this, but are you too goalless!" Zhao Yueran frowned.
Yes? I don't have a goal, I feel like I'm very persevering, obviously the most scum awakened person but still working hard, still not giving up hope.
"I'm not talking about strength, but your plans for the future, you are the Awakened, the only 10,000 Awakened in this world, the only hope that can fight against monsters and save us ordinary people, but you only want to find your sister back?"
"You said you didn't want to waste the quota of the Awakened, so you worked hard to train your strength, but even if you become stronger? If you become stronger, you are a qualified awakener? ”
I......
"Xiao Caoyang, I really thank you for saving us, but at the same time, I feel that you didn't do well enough, not enough, you just saved our mother and son, but do you know how many people are living in pain and humiliation like us in this apocalypse? It may even be more painful than ours, and what should they do? ”
"Xiao Caoyang, if you are just an ordinary college student, then my words may be excessive, but you are not! You are the Awoken! You were chosen by the scientists of the future to save everyone and fight against this apocalypse, if you only think about your sister and only think about the people around you, do you think you are qualified? ”
"Xiao Caoyang, you said that Teacher Xia was very brave and conscientious, and he didn't even care about his life for the sake of his students, so what about you? Is it okay to sacrifice for the sake of duty? His duty is to be a teacher, and only students are to be saved, but your duty is to be an awakened person, and you want to save all human beings in the world! ”
"Xiao Cao Yang, you said that you yourself are weak, but are you weaker than that Lin Xiu? He's just an ordinary human, but he probably saved more people than you, even! He saved you......"
Cold sweat was like rain, and I couldn't refute it at all, but I knew that Zhao Yueran was not scolding me, just wanting to wake me up, just wanting to help me grow, just like a big sister teaching my younger brother.
I really never thought about these questions, I always felt that I was by no means a bad person, but it was not a great benevolence, just take care of the things around me, others? Maybe it will help if it comes easily, but that's about it......
Duty? I have never thought about the duties of the Awakened, at most I feel that I can't be like the Zhao family brothers, don't rely on their strength to do evil, even if they are good people, but after listening to Zhao Yueran's words......
I admire Xia Mingxuan very much, I admire Lin Xiu very much, but I have never thought of learning anything from them, I have always felt that I am much worse than Su Xinyan, but is it only strength that is worse? There is also that kindness, and that sense of responsibility that is unwilling to leave anyone behind.
Even when I subdued the Iron Guard, I only swore that I would definitely become stronger, but I never said what I was getting stronger for, did he and the doll mind my strength? Perhaps, but what matters more is that I only care about getting stronger and do nothing.
Agents didn't come to 2014 to help me get stronger, they came to fight this apocalypse!
No matter how strong I am, I am not a qualified Awakener, because I have never thought of fulfilling the obligations of the Awakened, and before tonight, I even felt that the identity of the Awakened was just my own luck, and I disliked that this luck was not big enough, and I even forgot the saying that the stronger the ability, the greater the responsibility.
Future scientists have started this time and space shuttle, not only to send back 10,000 awakened genes and antibodies, but also to send back 10,000 responsibilities!
How much responsibility does this have? How many people are there in the world? Even if the survival rate is only 2%, it should be more than 100 million, right? But how much have I helped? It's been almost half a month since the end began, except for Zhu Yutong is handy, I have only saved Zhao Yueran's mother and son, and because she has always been my idol and the goddess in my heart.
I don't want to admit that I'm selfish, and Zhao Yueran didn't say the word, but if I only think about my sister, isn't that selfish? I've been reprimanding the Zhao brothers for their selfishness, but compared to them, I just haven't harmed anyone, right?
In my arms, Zhao Yueran fell asleep, but I was hot and couldn't sleep, not because of lust, but because I suddenly found that what I had been thinking all along was wrong, and even, I barely thought about something, let alone really faced this apocalypse.
Tonight, I learned a lot, not just to get rid of my virginity, not to hug this beautiful woman in my arms, but to say these things to me.
Some people say that celebrities' public image and real personality are completely different, and I admit that this sentence is true, but it is by no means all negative, just like Zhao Yueran.
I only know how beautiful she is in ancient costumes, but I never know that her heart is so kind, her thoughts are so mature and thoughtful, she didn't cry out because I saved her, like Fang Min, she just wanted to slap me, but directly said my flaws.
That's probably why I really fell in love with her after tonight.
I didn't fall asleep until dawn, thinking about those words over and over again, but Zhao Yueran was in a much better mood, maybe because of last night's talk, and maybe because of some kind of moisturization, cough cough...... After all, my brother is a virgin, and he is very supplemental.
Zhao Yueran got up very early, and a smile finally appeared on her face, first greeted me with a kiss to get up, and then went to the next room to wake up the two children, looking at her back, I always have a beautiful heart, I just hope that it can be like this every day.
She is beautiful and moving on the screen, but she is a standard good wife and mother on the screen, a hearty breakfast, the raw materials are only a few packets of instant noodles and ham sausages, plus a small amount of dehydrated vegetables and compressed biscuits.
The thick noodle soup is filled with colorful vegetables, the compressed biscuits are soaked to make the soup base, and the ham sausage is cut very finely, spread flat on the noodles in the shape of petals, which is the most hearty I have eaten since the end of the day, but the portion is too small.
"Little Cao Yang, you can eat so much!" Zhao Yueran was finally stunned after I ate the sixth bowl of noodles.
"Uh...... The Awakened are very good at eating. I scratched my head in embarrassment, and at the same time promised to go out to replenish more food after eating, by the way, and the bath water that Zhao Yueran used last night.
"What are little Cao Yang going to do today?" Holding his chin, Zhao Yueran squinted and asked.
"Search the city, find out the whereabouts of my sister, by the way...... See if there are any other survivors who need help. ”
Although the answer was a little weak, it also made Zhao Yueran smile with satisfaction, and touched my hair to show encouragement, like a big sister praising her younger brother, which made my face slightly red, and made Zhu Yutong look straight in the eyes.
"Did something happen last night? Brother Cao Yang, have you abandoned me? Zhu Yutong was dumbfounded.
"Get out! Eat your noodles and ......" I glared at the little idiot, the legendary tease is him.
After breakfast, I left the community and began to really carry out my duties as an awakened person, killing a few more monsters, saving a few more survivors, and at the same time I also took Tie Wei and Zhu Yutong with me.
I let the doll stay at home to protect Zhao Yueran, although she was a little unhappy......
I wanted Zhu Yutong to stay, but this kid didn't agree, saying that I needed a guide who was familiar with the city.
Cut, this little tease is just to go out and see if it can trigger the adventure of the traverser.
When I went out, I was in a very happy mood, reminiscing about the good things last night, and fantasizing about whether something good would happen tonight, but I didn't know ......
There was a knock on the door, and Zhao Yueran in the kitchen was slightly stunned, it was only ten o'clock in the morning.
"Is it Xiao Caoyang? You're back so soon. Zhao Yueran walked towards the door, but an exclamation stopped her.
"Not the master, don't open the door!" The doll rushed out of the bedroom, but it was a step too slow.
There was a loud bang, the door was smashed by a hard object, Zhao Yueran screamed and retreated, and when he looked up again, he was already stunned, and there was a fierce man standing at the door.
"Wife, why don't you open the door?" The man said gloomily, followed by a young man with a wicked smile.
Almost at the same time, I stopped and stared blankly at the building in front of me, a movie theater in the center of the city, of course, there was no blockbuster to see, but the guard said......
"Master, there seem to be a lot of humans inside, living humans!" Tie Wei frowned, and the radar turned on the scanning with all its might.
"How is that possible!" I was stunned, Zhu Yutong immediately wanted to rush in, but I dragged him back.
Because my perception tells me that there are not only humans in this movie theater, but also monsters, and hundreds of monsters are like cages surrounding those humans, what does that mean?
What's more, after scanning it with radar, Tiewei told me that many of those humans were seriously injured, with severed hands or feet, but none of them died, what does this mean?
I even found out that at the entrance of the movie theater, there were several destroyed buses, with signs on the front of the buses, and some handwriting hidden by red moss.
The Iron Guard stepped forward and wiped off the moss spots, revealing a few large characters...... Nanjing Southeast University!
