Chapter 45: Kyungwon and the Plan
As the sun approached west, Kyungwon spent a lot of time at the Shunxiang supermarket, from early morning to late evening.
He pulled Xiao Yun'er to sit down by the eaves, looking at the distant sky, the huge red sun was slowly falling.
Next to him was the collapsed ruins, and not far ahead, several zombies stood there in a daze.
Because their eyesight is too poor to see their rotten faces, they look like passers-by from a distance.
The glass curtain wall of the skyscrapers reflects the orange light, and this moment is rare and quiet, just like Kyungwon lying on the wheat straw stack in the farmland when he was a child, quietly watching the sunset, silently counting the numbers in his heart, wondering how many he counted before it would get dark.
He never counted a single result, because his mother would always call him home for dinner before dark.
At this point in my memory, the air was always filled with the smell of good oil smoke, the woks were bursting, and the roofs of every house were filled with cooking smoke.
"Do you feel homesick?" Jing Yuan looked sideways at Xiao Yun'er.
She held the Night Pearl in both hands, and the gold necklace was also put on top of the Night Pearl.
Hearing Jing Yuan talking to her, she turned her head to look, tilted her head, and saw that Jing Yuan didn't make any other moves, and stared at the Night Pearl again.
Kyungwon stood up, it's time to go, it's impossible to stay in the supermarket tonight.
He didn't want to sleep in the middle of the zombies, and he didn't want to lie on the hard, damp concrete floor, blowing the cold wind that poured in through the cracks in the walls.
Suddenly wanted to take a walk nearby, but he was a little bored, so he stretched out his hand to Xiao Yun'er.
She naturally held it, as if the two of them were already very familiar, but in fact, this was only the third meeting between her and Kyungwon.
She is too simple, although she has great strength, but in terms of mental age, she is just a child.
Kyungwon took her by the hand and walked towards the outside of the supermarket.
Under the eaves of the supermarket again, she stopped again, broke free from Kyungwon's hand, and retreated into the shadows.
Kyungwon glanced up at the crooked sign of Shunxiang Supermarket, this was the twelfth time she had rejected her invitation.
"Let's go around the supermarket." Kyungwon no longer forced her, and took her slowly, walking around the half-collapsed supermarket.
But halfway through, I had to go back the way I came, because the collapsed concrete wall blocked the way.
Back in front of the supermarket, Kyungwon picked up his travel bag and gestured to her.
"I'm leaving, tomorrow... I'll come and see you if I'm free. Kyungwon pointed outside, and made a running motion with his two fingers.
The last time before he left, Yebi's gesture, it seemed that she remembered that she realized that Kyungwon was leaving, and finally let go of the night pearl that she couldn't put down.
Kyungwon picked up a bucket of drinking water and walked outside.
She blocked the way in front of Kyungwon, who touched her forehead and took out a notebook from his bag and gave it to her.
It was the villain book he drew in the afternoon, which recorded the whole process of polishing the eggplant knife with Xiao Yun'er, and he painted dozens of pages, and the last page of the book was sandwiched with the family photo, Jing Yuan was afraid that she would see her mood fluctuate again, so he took the photo away.
opened the book to show her, and while she was in a daze, Kyungwon chose to sneak away.
If she looks at her with that kind of eyes again, maybe she will really be soft-hearted and stay.
In fact, Jing Yuan didn't want to leave her alone in the supermarket, and thought about taking her away, at least helping her find a place where she wouldn't leak wind and rain.
But she didn't want to go, she didn't want to.
In other respects, she is very good at coaxing, but as soon as Kyungwon tries to tempt her to leave Shunxiang Supermarket, she will immediately become alert and retreat as she had just done.
It seems that she has decided that this is her home.
She has been living in a supermarket for many years, and Kyungwon doesn't understand her way of survival, but apparently, she doesn't need to help her stay alive herself.
Think about it, although I was afraid of her at first, I didn't bother to get along with her at all.
And to be honest, she is quite cute, her appearance is also cute, and her stupid and cute way of thinking is also cute.
But Kyungwon and her lifestyles are completely different, so there has to be a time to separate.
How to say that sentence, the inappropriate person is not suitable, and some people are just suitable for eating, drinking and having fun together.
I have to prepare to move for the winter, and I just need to come here once in a while to see her and play with her, and I can't stay with her every day.
At 6:21 p.m., Kyungwon pushed open the door of 707.
Xiaobai rushed over and jumped around him.
"Did you listen to me and go to the toilet to?" Kyungwon rubbed his dog's head vigorously and looked inside the hall.
It's good to see no lumps.
After adding dog food to Xiaobai's bowl, he pressed the radio to play music, humming and boiling hot water.
"Run, Xiaobai, run!"
Kyungwon played with him on the take-off board, and he really liked this way of picking up things for fun, and he played until dark.
Jing Yuan finished eating and drinking, washed up, and took out the map to study.
Tomorrow, he will go to the southern suburbs to explore the way.
More precisely, it is to find a way to reach the southern suburbs.
6 kilometers, it is not far away, and it is not close to it.
However, this is only a straight-line distance, according to the experience of Jingyuan, the general map says that it is 6 kilometers, but the actual distance may be 7 or 8 kilometers, and it is inevitable to make a detour.
If the road conditions are good, then Kyungwon will definitely reach his destination within an hour by bicycle.
Of course, this is only the ideal scenario.
In practice, there may be a lot of problems, such as the road in a certain place may have been bombed, or a large group of zombies gathered in the way.
However, Kyungwon is not in a hurry, there are still two or three months to go until winter, so there is a lot of time to use.
The plan is to spend two to three days exploring the road and then conducting a field trip to the southern suburbs.
Within a week, find a place close to a water source, high ground, with enough trees and plants around, a field, and a place where you can cut firewood and grow vegetables.
There he cleared out a house to serve as his first base and main base.
Safety and comfort, that's the number one thing.
The second factor is the transportation conditions, he doesn't plan to find a place to live in seclusion for the rest of his life, it is just his logistics base, and when the home is built, he will definitely start to explore other parts of the city and seek opportunities for evolution.
But that's in the future, this winter, the first purpose is to survive, he is not familiar enough with the city, therefore, does not want to explore in harsh environmental conditions, before the snow falls, he has to collect enough supplies for the winter, and then hide in the shelter, waiting for spring to come.
In the future, he may establish a second or third base in other parts of the city.
For example, Shili Sunshine 3 Building 707 is very suitable as a backup base, where he can store some daily necessities, and if necessary, spend the night in this house.
But that's all for later, after all, he hasn't even built the first base.
