Chapter 398: Sunrise
The first day after the Apocalypse army retreated.
A glimmer of morning light broke the silence of the night. The sky turned from a deep deep blue to pale gold, and a glimmer of light gradually came through the horizon. The sun poked out half of its head lightly like a shy maiden.
On Earth next door, this may just be a commonplace for everyone, every day and every morning. And on Earth 2, at this moment, countless people have come to the streets and rooftops, with tears of emotion and joy for the rest of their lives, to record this historic moment with their camera lenses.
It was the first dawn after the apocalypse and the first sunrise after the lingering darkness over the earth had dissipated.
The initial glimmer is like an invisible paintbrush, outlining the outline of the gold edge on the horizon. A soft orange color sprinkled the sky, and the slowly rising sun was like a shining jewel, awakening the sleeping city.
Helena opened her eyes.
She lies in her café bedroom on a new bed she has personally chosen. She was exhausted from most of the high-intensity fighting yesterday, and when she returned home, she fell asleep, her eyes closed and the sky was already bright.
The head is still a little drowsy, and the first sense to recover is the sense of smell. She smelled the food in her nose, which seemed to be wafting from the direction of the kitchen. Immediately after being awakened by her sense of smell was her lower abdomen, hunger beating in and her idling stomach gurgling.
She wanted to get out of bed and find something to eat, but it was then that she realized that a smooth, slender white leg was pressing on her.
Needless to say, the owner of the leg is naturally the Kryptonite blonde girl who is sleeping next to her.
Since they had been busy since returning to Earth2, they had only cleared out one bedroom and lived together. Anyway, the two good friends have been roommates together for so many years on the next earth, and they have long been familiar with each other.
Cullen is a sweet friend, but the sleeping appearance is really flattering. It's like waking up to find a golden retriever girl on your belly, or being overwhelmed by the huge softness, it's all commonplace.
"Get up, lazy."
Cullen let out a long yawn and sat up. The sun that has just risen shines through the curtains that have been opened, and the warmth reaches the heart.
Karen rubbed his eyes.
"Early."
She looked at Helena and smiled mysteriously.
"Today is a day like no other."
Helena was sitting on the edge of the bed, putting her curvy right leg into her black over-the-knee stockings, and tilted her head when she heard this.
"What? You mean, the first day we repelled the apocalypse for the second time? ”
"You really don't remember."
Karen sorted out the mess of golden retrievers at super speed, smiled at her, and went out without saying a word.
"Inexplicable."
Helena grunted, put on her coat and got up to wash.
As soon as he got out of the room, he bumped into Shen You, who was coming out of the kitchen, and there was an attractive fragrance wafting from it.
She was stunned: "Are you making breakfast?" ”
"yes, a little bit of preparation." Shen You also smiled, "After all, today is a different day." ”
"Huh?"
Helena was stunned, but Shen You didn't say anything more, waved her hand and walked away.
The girl frowned as she walked to the bathroom. Sure enough, it seems that there is something I don't know
Alan Scott was walking down the street towards the sign of the coffee shop. Today he has taken off the ring, and he has no green fire special effects and no Green Lantern uniform. He wore a clean and simple white shirt, a carefully selected dark suit, a neatly tied tie, and meticulously buttoned cuffs.
"That's not a good idea, Alan Scott." A deep and majestic voice sounded in his head.
A ghostly voice, but the reckless man didn't panic at all. He knew it was the green of all things whispering.
"It's okay, calm down. You see, he helped us fight off the Apocalypse army and graciously invited me to try their coffee. Alain put his hands in his pockets and said confidently, "I think others are good." ”
"That's because of the dullness and numbness of our human senses." The green of all things muttered.
The implication is that if you could see how shiny and scary the deity of that thing was disguised under human skin, you wouldn't say such layman's words.
"Okay, he's not human, he's a terrifying existence, I know." "But it's a fact that he helped us. ”
"Many of the higher-level beings' minds are beyond your human dimension, and they may just have their own agendas."
"Or maybe it's just that you're afraid of him." Alain laughed.
"I am the embodiment of the earth, and I am not afraid of anyone."
As he spoke, his voice became more and more muffled. Eventually, the voice drifted farther and farther away, faintly sounding like "I don't care" or "Don't blame me for not warning you" or something like that, until it disappeared.
Alain pushed the door open and walked into the café.
I saw such a scene head-on.
The man brought the fragrant plate to the table, and the blonde girl's eyes widened and she reached for the plate as she muttered "give me a taste", but the man slapped it away with a faster hand.
"Use utensils and wash your hands before eating." The man said with a straight look.
"Eh~ just taste a piece." The girl pouted, "Besides, do you think I'm afraid of germs?" ”
"It's called table manners, you at least pretend to be a little bit of a lady, right?"
"Cut"
The girl retreated in defeat, and went back to wash her hands.
Seeing this through Alain, the green of all things in this scene was silent.
From its field of vision, it was clear that neither of them was human. One is the extraterrestrial giant that shines like the sun, and the other is also a monster with a physical energy level that opens mountains and rocks with his bare hands.
Monster One cooks for himself and admonishes Monster Two to wash his hands before eating and to pay attention to table manners.
I always feel that the style of painting is not very right.
What's even more disobedient is that Monster Two jumped out of the bathroom a moment later, proudly showing off her wet little hands: "Look, wash it up!" ”
Then Monster One's voice came from the kitchen: "Okay, then you can try a piece first." ”
“.”
The style of painting is even more wrong.
"Yo, here it is." When Shen You came out of the kitchen, he saw Alan and greeted with a smile, "Come and sit." ”
Karen bit his fork and glanced at him, "He's.?" ”
"Green Lantern, I told you yesterday." Shen You introduced.
"Oh, that's you." Cullen hurriedly got up and shook hands with him, "I've heard a lot about you, you've fought a few good battles, and it's thanks to you that the Earth can survive until we come back."
Alain shook hands with her and tried to politely say a few pleasantries, but was immediately interrupted by Cullen himself.
"Ah, I'll talk about it later, Helen looks like she's coming out."
Helena, who had finished washing, came out of the bathroom: "What's wrong with me?" ”
"You don't really remember anything, do you? What day is it? "Karen was happy.
Helena: "? ”
She looked around in confusion and saw that the roof of the living room had been hung with strings of bat-like ornaments at some point. Cullen snapped a hat to her head so quickly that she didn't even have time to react.
Helena seemed to remember something, and couldn't help but take a step back: "You mean?" ”
"That's right."
Karen smiled, turned around with a cake with a candle on it, and grinned.
"Happy birthday."
