Chapter 1: Survivors
"Name, age, identity."
"Ji Zhan, sixteen years old, student."
"Are you alone? Are any of the parents or relatives still alive? ”
"Nope."
"Previous place of residence."
"Zone B."
Ji Zhan obviously felt that after he finished answering the last question, the soldier commander in front of him hesitated, "There are still survivors in Area B?" ”
Ji Zhan looked down at the clothes on her body, as if she had been splashed with blood, her body was also stained with the rancid stench of monsters, and blood coagulated on her eyelashes, making her vision seem to be covered with a layer of blood mist.
Ji Zhan's eyelashes trembled slightly, and his voice was hoarse: "Well, it should be just me." ”
After passing the final security check, Ji Zhan entered the fifth security base, and the people around him walked forward like the walking dead. There was no joy after being rescued, and the expressions on everyone's faces were full of gray numb despair.
Until a woman started crying, and then slowly spread, the cry was so suppressed that people couldn't raise their heads.
Forty days ago, several fireball meteorites that fell from the sky fell into the blue star, smashing into the living area of mankind.
Scientists gave these catastrophic meteorites the designation, KP-26.
It is shaped like a human heart, with furrows like veins of blood vessels.
What humans didn't know at that time was that all the humans who saw the fireball meteorite that night had become hosts to some unknown live virus.
Three days later, signs of life came from KP-26.
"Gollum ......"
The magma-like material in the meteorite fills the surface ravines and beats like a real heart.
Humans hosted by an unknown live virus have become man-eating monsters, and the home of human existence has become hell.
The era of global wars came to an end in a hurry, and the end times began.
Ji Zhan stopped, and the bracelet on his left wrist was still dutifully recording various data without stopping.
Ji Zhan lowered his eyes and said slowly: "It's now 14:00 on September 13, 2166, and the student Ji Zhan has entered the fifth security base, and has completed all the tasks before that, with a combat time of 30 days, 637 targets killed, and 1948 auxiliary kills...... Everything is in order, the report is complete. ”
……
Three years later, the perimeter of the fifth security base.
"Teacher Xiao Ji, Teacher Xiao Ji."
Ji Zhan woke up from her dream, her vision blurred for a moment and then refocused, and a little girl with pigtails looked at her with a stack of homework books.
"Teacher Xiaoji, the homework is finished."
Ji Zhan took the homework book, then glanced at the time, after finishing the last class at four o'clock in the afternoon, she actually slept on her stomach in the office until six o'clock.
"Well, thank you for your hard work. Did your mom and dad pick you up? Ji Zhan touched the top of the little girl's hair and asked.
Yuan Yuan drooped his eyelids and shook his head.
"Then the teacher will send you back."
Ji Zhan got up, first took her point card and inserted it on the instrument on the wall of the office, and soon her identity was displayed, and then she settled the points she earned today.
After the beginning of the apocalypse, humanity moved into a safe base, and the currency that was once in circulation became a pile of waste paper, and points replaced money as the new equivalent. If you want to earn points, you can choose to earn them by working in the base, which is less dangerous, but less profitable, and most of it is manual work.
Of course, if you want to earn more points, you can also take on missions outside, but the danger factor is extremely high, and if you are not careful, you will be swallowed by monsters outside.
Ji Zhan took a look, and there were only 90 points left.
I have to pay rent next week, and I have to go on an outing tomorrow morning.
Ji Zhan led Yuanyuan and walked out.
It's the third year of the end of the world, and the security base is still under construction everywhere, although it is a school, but in fact it is just a conjoined house built up by two model houses, and there are less than forty students in it, and in addition to Ji Zhan, there is an old man who is so old that he can't even walk.
The teacher's salary is only 300 points a month, which is paid on a daily basis. If you eat relief meals every day, live in a model house, and have no other living expenses, 300 points are almost enough for one person for a month.
Yuanyuan's home is in a model house, all the houses in the base are regulated, not sold but rented, this simple model house is the cheapest rent house.
There are not only the Yuanyuan family living in the model house, but also three other families, and the steel wire pulled up at the door is full of clothes hanging from the drying, which looks messy.
When he arrived at the door, Yuanyuan let go of Ji Zhan's hand very sensibly, "Teacher Xiao Ji will see you tomorrow." ”
"Okay, see you tomorrow." Ji Zhan stood in place, watching Yuanyuan walk in with a tattered schoolbag before leaving.
Yuanyuan's parents are ordinary people, and they can't do out-of-town tasks, so they can only sell coolies in the safe area to earn points and save money for the family. It looks like a very hard life, but in the outermost area of the Fifth Security Base, this kind of life is already very good, at least the most important relatives are still there.
Ji Zhan lives in a six-story apartment in the outermost area, and she first went to the vegetable market to pick up some beans and buy some meat. Meat is a very precious thing in the base, and it is also expensive, so it only costs 40 points for just a little.
"I'll go and see the outing mission tomorrow......" Ji Zhan said to himself.
Ji Zhan's family lives on the fifth floor, and as soon as she entered the corridor on the fifth floor, she saw three women sitting in front of her house eating melon seeds, and the skin of the melon seeds vomited all over the ground.
"Ah, it's Xiao Ji who is back." A middle-aged woman seemed to be very familiar with Ji Zhan.
Ji Zhan nodded and responded very politely, "Good afternoon." ”
The middle-aged woman caught a glimpse of the dishes in Ji Zhan's hand, her eyes flashed, and she said with a smile: "Xiao Ji bought a lot of vegetables and came back, where can you eat so much for a girl at home." ”
Ji Zhan glanced at the vegetables and meat in his hand, and replied, "You can finish eating." ”
The middle-aged woman choked, her smile faded, and then she said: "Xiao Ji, now it is difficult for you to live alone in this world, and I heard that you will also go on a mission." Auntie told you, my son Ah Zhong just passed the physical examination yesterday, and he will be able to go out on a mission another day after joining the army. When the time comes, I will let Ah Zhong take care of you a little more outside, won't you be less dangerous? ”
As she spoke, the middle-aged woman's hand was about to reach for the plastic bag that Ji Zhan was carrying, but Ji Zhan turned sideways, causing the middle-aged woman's hand to stop in mid-air awkwardly.
"Thank you Aunt Chen for your kindness, but don't worry, I can protect myself." Ji Zhan's face was expressionless, and his clear eyes looked innocent and sincere, "I'm going in, can I let Jean?" ”
Mrs. Chen was so annoyed that her smile was gone, and the stool scraped against the ground and made a screeching sound.
Ji Zhan opened the door and slammed it shut, blocking the peep of the three pairs of eyes behind.
"Don't say that this girl is really beautiful, why don't you let her be your daughter-in-law?" A woman said to Aunt Chen.
Aunt Chen took a sip and said, "What's the use of being beautiful, just her appearance, where does she look like a serious girl." She has been out on so many missions, and every time she can come back unharmed, maybe she just fooled around with those powerful men, and then relied on others to help her complete it. ”
"Don't talk about this kind of person as a daughter-in-law for my family, if she really gets entangled with my family's Ah Zhong, I still feel unlucky, phew!"
"No, I think this little girl seems to be quite honest."
"With a dead face every day, he must have been squandering ...... in private"
Before Aunt Chen finished speaking, the door of Ji Zhan's house suddenly opened again, and Aunt Chen was so frightened that she closed her voice.
Ji Zhan threw a broom and dustpan out, and said, "Remember to sweep it, it's very rude to pile garbage in front of other people's homes." ”
After Ji Zhan finished speaking, she closed the door again, and Aunt Chen was so angry that her face changed.
In the end, it was the other two women who helped to sweep, they were newly moved, thinking that after all, they all lived in the same hallway, and maybe one day there would be difficulties and they needed to help each other.
As a result, after cleaning up, Aunt Chen, who didn't do anything, even took the broom and dustpan as her own and brought them back to her home.
