The food was all piled up in the corner.

Among them were two bags of white flowers, a bag of easy-to-preserve vegetables, a bag of processed bacon, and even a box of canned fish and a box of canned fruit.

Yao Rong decisively refused: "These foods are too valuable, you all take them back." ”

Fang Shaoyuan explained with a smile: "Aunt Yao, we didn't buy these foods. You took the initiative to hand over the corpse of the Zombie Emperor before, and this is a reward sent by my brother-in-law on behalf of the Southwest Base. ”

Knowing that it was sent by Xue Anyi, Yao Rong was not easy to refuse.

Lu Fei squatted next to these bags of food, and a sense of happiness rose from his heart.

Everyone continued to clean the house, Mi Mengmeng squatted by the bucket, saw Yao Rong coming over to change the rag, and hurriedly fished out a rag that had already been washed from the water, wrung it half-dry and handed it to Yao Rong.

Yao Rong smiled at Mi Mengmeng and took the rag handed by Mi Mengmeng.

The child who has lost a loved one and sent someone under the fence is always extremely sensitive and precocious, and if she refuses Mi Mengmeng's help, the child may be even more restless.

Soon, the house was cleaned, Fang Shaoyuan and the others said goodbye and left, leaving only Yao Rong, Lu Fei and Mi Mengmeng in the house.

Mi Mengmeng drank some rice porridge and went to sleep, Yao Rong nodded at Lu Fei, and motioned for him to follow her to the living room: "Let's talk about Mengmeng." ”

Lu Fei sat up straight, waiting for Yao Rong's next words.

But after waiting for a while, seeing that she only stared at him and didn't speak, Lu Fei scratched his head: "Are you asking my opinion?" ”

Yao Rong nodded.

"Forehead ......"

Lu Fei didn't think about this problem carefully at all, just now he was just immersed in the joy of having a house and food.

He subconsciously turned his gaze to Yao Rong for help: "You must have an idea, right." ”

"I have an idea, but Mengmeng's child is what you want to save, and I agreed to let her go home for a few days for the sake of your face. And what about a few days later? ”

This time, Yao Rong did not directly tell Lu Fei the optimal solution to the problem.

There are many things that she can handle for Lu Fei. But by no means this one.

This is the burden he took on his own initiative.

He should understand that when he stands up and decides to do something significant, he must also bear a series of troubles that may be brought about by this matter.

Lu Fei raised his hand and rubbed the tip of his nose: "Send it to the orphanage?" ”

"It's one way. But since you saved her, you should do more, such as inspecting the environment of the orphanage in advance, and find out how the children in the orphanage usually live and eat. You can't just send her away in a daze. ”

"You're right, I'll go to the orphanage tomorrow." However, after saying this, Lu Fei hesitated for a moment, and still said, "Actually, we have a lot of rooms in our house......

As soon as this sentence came out, under Yao Rong's smiling gaze, Lu Fei's voice became lower and lower.

Well, well, he knew it was a bad idea.

Yao Rong said softly: "Lu Fei, raising a child is already very difficult. Right now, I don't have the energy to take care of other children. ”

Her own children are not yet out of pain.

The deer is not slightly raised on the tip of the eyebrows.

It is very difficult to raise a child well.

Hmph, nonsense, is he so worry-free!

secretly complained in his heart, but Lu Fei's roots behind his ears grew a crimson.

"I know, I know. Raising a child is not just about stuttering and providing a place to live. His voice was awkward.

Yao Rong looked at him seriously and asked with a smile, "What are you blushing?" ”

"Am I blushing!" Lu Fei slapped the armrest of the sofa hard, and covered up his weakness with a loud shout, "I thought about how you treated me before, so I'm angry!" ”

Yao Rong was meaningful: "It seems that you are indeed very angry, look, this neck is angry." ”

Lu Fei: "......"

It's so angry.

I'm really angry this time.

"Alright, let's get down to business."

Yao Rong pressed down on his palm and retracted the topic.

"Lu Fei, you take action to protect Mengmeng and take Mengmeng home to raise it for a few days, these practices are all correct. But I ask you, can you save one, can you save everyone? ”

"I ...... If I see it, of course I have to save it. ”

"Then you can go to the orphanage tomorrow and take a look, and then we'll continue the conversation."

Yao Rong got up and planned to go upstairs to see if Mi Mengmeng had kicked the quilt.

The temperature difference between day and night in the southwest base is large, and it is easy to get sick and catch a cold if you kick the quilt.

The door was open, and as soon as Yao Rong pushed the door open a crack, he heard a thin and weak, deliberately suppressed cry.

"Mom, I miss you so much......"

"Woo Mom, I secretly left chocolate for you, if you don't come to pick me up, the chocolate will melt......"

"Mengmeng, didn't you sleep?"

Mi Mengmeng, who was completely shrunk in the quilt, was startled, and hesitated for a few seconds before Mi Mengmeng poked her head out of the quilt: "Aunt Yao Rong, I just fell asleep, and I woke up when I dreamed of my mother." ”

"May I come in?"

"Yes."

Yao Rong walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, and at a glance he saw the little girl clutching the chocolate that had melted and deformed.

She pretended not to see it and chatted softly with Mi Mengmeng.

In the living room, Lu Fei was still sitting in place, thinking about what Yao Rong had just said.

He can save one person, but can he save everyone?

He didn't even think clearly about how to deal with Mi Mengmeng after saving Mi Mengmeng.

Lu Fei raised his hand and grabbed his hair in a mess.

Headache.

Maybe it was because of something in his heart, Lu Fei rarely lost sleep and got up late the next day.

When he washed up and went downstairs, Song Xiuping was already sitting in the living room, holding a rag doll to tease Mi Mengmeng.

"Brother Song, why are you here!?" When Lu Fei saw Song Xiuping, his eyes lit up.

Song Xiuping put the rag doll in Mi Mengmeng's hand, and said happily: "Our team has just completed the task and can take a few days off, I think you just moved in, let's see if there is anything that can help you." ”

Lu Fei pulled Song Xiuping to a corner: "Brother Song, can you take me to the orphanage?" ”

"No problem." Song Xiuping agreed, "I'll take you over on a bicycle." ”

These days, gasoline is a rarity.

Traveling around the base is basically by bicycle.

Song Xiuping only knew the location of the orphanage in the north of the city, and he and Lu Fei arrived in the north of the city and asked several people before they arrived at the destination with difficulty.

The orphanage is said to be a "courtyard", but in fact, it is a patchwork of six mobile flat houses.

Five rooms are for the children to sleep in, and one room is for the elders and their spouses.

If you want to cook, you can only do it in the open air, and if you want to play, you can grab stones at the door of the flat room.

Lu Fei has carefully understood, the house is a big shop, the children sleep together, a house of about ten square meters can squeeze more than a dozen children, and the food is also very simple, each meal is only half a bowl of porridge and half a fist-sized potato.

Just this half bowl of porridge is more water than rice.

The dean lit a fire to cook for the children: "Every day or two, a new child is brought in. The place is so big, you can only squeeze more. My wife and I also lived in a few houses, and now we can barely live there. ”

Song Xiuping squatted beside the dean: "What should I do after that?" ”

The dean used a stick to pluck the potatoes buried under the fire, was silent for a while, sighed a long sigh, and the sorrow between his eyebrows did not disappear: "Let's talk about it later." ”

"It's okay to be alive, who doesn't take one step at a time."

He seemed to be telling Song Xiuping and Lu Fei, and he seemed to be comforting himself.

So he repeated softly: "It's good to be alive." ”

Song Xiuping got up and left, no longer disturbing the dean's work.

He looked left and right, and after looking for a while, he found that Lu Fei had run to a tree and was sitting, his legs dangling in the air, as if he was observing something.

Following Lu Fei's line of sight, Song Xiuping saw those ragged and emaciated children.

"Little deer, come down quickly, we should go back."

Lu Fei jumped down and silently followed Song Xiuping away.

He kicked the stone at his feet: "Brother Song, I don't want to send Mengmeng to the orphanage." ”

It wasn't until he witnessed the current situation of the orphanage that Lu Fei clearly realized why Dr. Yao said that yesterday.

and the cute mother Lin Xiaoyun......

She must have guessed what the orphanage would look like.

But in that case, she was like grasping at the only straw, hoping that Meng Meng would be sent to the orphanage.

But put yourself in their shoes, at that time, Lin Xiaojun had no better choice.

The children who are sent to the orphanage can only have a place to live and food in the last days.

Lin Xiaoyun only hopes that Mi Mengmeng can live.

I don't even want her to be happy, I don't want her to be stable, I don't want her to be literate and reasonable.

"Eh, then Aunt Yao plans to adopt Mengmeng?" Song Xiuping asked.

"It's not. I want to find out if there are any couples who are willing to adopt Meng Meng. ”

"You can ask Fang Shaoyuan and Zheng Shuiqing, they are more well-informed in this regard."

Lu Fei lowered his head and walked for a while, and suddenly asked Song Xiuping: "Brother Song, is there any way to make these children live better?" ”

"Huh? If there are no zombies around the base, then the base can build satellite cities to transfer the population pressure, and the children don't have to live so crowded; If the food at the base is more sufficient, the relief food distributed to the children will naturally increase. ”

Song Xiuping said this casually, but seeing that Lu Fei seemed to really listen to his words, he hurriedly straightened his expression: "Xiaolu, don't take my words to heart, I'm just talking casually." ”

Lu Fei looked at him suspiciously: "But I think what you said is very reasonable." ”

"Well, it makes sense, because this is the future development plan of the southwest base." Song Xiuping secretly complained, "But you don't know, this development plan has not been successful for five years, it's just easy to say." Don't get your hopes up too much. ”

"Five years? Brother Song, how do you know? ”

Song Xiuping felt a thrill in his heart, and knew that he had missed his mouth: "Ha, I just guessed casually." ”

Lu Fei was easy to fool, no longer dwelling on the five-year point in time, but said: "But this matter is correct, why can't you have hope?" Do you not do it when you know it's right? ”

What I saw in the orphanage today had a very big impact on Lu Fei.

He thought silently for a long, long time, and it was only at this moment that he said those thoughts to Song Xiuping that he had long been unable to suppress: "The orphanage is a microcosm of the end times, and now I have several bags of grain at home, if I move those bags of food, I will definitely be able to let the children eat delicious food for a few days, but this cannot change their fate from the root." ”

"If you want them to live well, only if the people in the entire southwest base live well."

"But according to Brother Song, what you said, if even a person with extraordinary abilities like you and a powerful person like me don't have hope, then how desperate should those ordinary people who don't have strength be?"

"They must be desperate right now."

Lu Fei turned his head: "Look at those children, we have been here for so long, they haven't laughed, not once." ”

Song Xiuping stepped on the bicycle for a moment.

Feeling the body shake, he quickly came back to his senses and stepped on his feet violently.

Lu Fei finished what he wanted to say in one breath, and seeing that Song Xiuping didn't respond to him, he scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "Brother Song, did I say something wrong?" ”

"No ......"

Song Xiuping took a deep breath.

His face was very complicated, and there was a faint sense of shame in it.

Lu Fei's words were like a slap in the face of Song Xiuping, making his whole person wake up from the state of thinking that "everyone is drunk and I am sober".

In fact, whether he saw Mi Mengmeng's mother and daughter before entering the city yesterday, or saw those children in the orphanage, his heart was indifferent, and he was even thinking: This kind of thing, he has long regarded it as normal, that is, Xiaolu has only experienced the end of the world for less than a year, and he will retain so much useless sympathy.

Yes, frankly speaking, Song Xiuping felt that Lu Fei's approach was a bit nosy.

But how could he have forgotten one thing!

It's not the last life anymore.

It is not the fifth year of the last days, but the first year of the last days.

Fang Shaoyuan is not dead, and the southwest base may not be like in the previous life, falling into a desperate struggle for power.

Clearly......

Obviously, everything can be in time......

"Xiaolu, you're right, you're so right!" Song Xiuping pedaled fast, he couldn't wait to return to Lu Fei's house, he couldn't wait to ask Lu Fei if he would like to hire him as a private chef.

At the beginning, he felt that Lu Fei was the savior, but in fact, it was just because of Lu Fei's strength. But at this moment, he is no longer just out of worship of strength, but vaguely believes that maybe in this life, with Lu Fei, Yao Rong, Fang Shaoyuan, and Zheng Shuiqing, many results will really be different.

Fang Shaoyuan and Zheng Shuiqing came to visit Yao Rong again.

On the way back yesterday, they heard Song Xiuping talk about Mi Mengmeng's life experience, so when they came over today, they also brought Mi Mengmeng two sets of clothes suitable for her age.

Mi Mengmeng took a shower, put on clean old clothes, sat in the courtyard to bask in the sun and dry her hair, and listened carefully to Yao Rong, Fang Shaoyuan and Zheng Shuiqing chatting.

The three of them were chatting energetically, and Lu Fei and Song Xiuping returned.

Yao Rong's gaze fell directly on Lu Fei - he was not depressed, nor did he show a look of being hit, but his eyebrows revealed a bit of perseverance.

She curled the corners of her lips slightly.

Song Xiuping saw that everyone was there, and immediately coughed twice, attracting everyone's attention: "That, I have something I want to announce to you." Aunt Yao, Xiaolu, do you feel that there is a lack of a chef and nutritionist in the family? ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was surprised.

Song Xiuping straightened his waist and said: "These days, I believe that everyone has a personal feeling for my cooking skills." So, I don't know if I have the honor to be able to go to work, every day for Aunt Yao and Xiaolu, oh, and Meng Meng to eat? ”

"Of course, I can guarantee that even if I become a cook, I will follow the team on a good mission."

Fang Shaoyuan was the first to come back to his senses: "Then what are you trying to do?" ”

What is the difference between being a chef or having a mission to kill zombies?

Song Xiuping raised his head proudly: "I used to go on a mission, and my teammates only cared about themselves upgrading first. But it's different to follow the fawn on a mission......"

Song Xiuping wiped the non-existent saliva from the corner of his lips: "I don't ask for any zombie emperor to kill me, but as long as I firmly hold the thigh of the deer, I will be able to live a beautiful life from now on where I can kill zombies with my fingers and upgrade." ”

Fang Shaoyuan: "......"

Zheng Shuiqing: "......"

Hug the fawn's thighs!

The fawns are not as tall as him!

Shameless!

But......

Lying down and killing zombies or something, they actually sound a little ...... Shamefully heartbroken.

Yao Rong was also a little unable to react.

She's been through so many mission worlds, and it's the first time she's encountered such a ...... Well, a reborn person with a personality.

Only Lu Fei was ecstatic in the audience.

What, is this pie-in-the-sky thing real!

As long as he helps Brother Song catch zombies, he will be able to have his own exclusive chef in the future!?

"Brother Song, you and my brother don't say what you have or don't, don't worry, in the future, I will be responsible for your ability upgrade."

Song Xiuping was equally ecstatic.

He knew that no one could stand up to his gastronomic offensive!

"That's great, we're done!"

Yao Rong and the three: "......"

Forget it, just be happy with the two of them.

In order to celebrate his successful application, Song Xiuping went down to the kitchen, intending to show off his skills. It just so happened that the kitchenware in the villa was ready-made, and the dishes were also ready-made, and half an hour later, the fragrant lunch was successfully baked.

After lunch, Song Xiuping suddenly avoided everyone and walked to Yao Rong's side: "Aunt Yao, are you free, I want to tell you something." ”

Yao Rong's heart moved, and she vaguely guessed what Song Xiuping was going to say, but when she really heard Song Xiuping confess to her about rebirth, she still felt a little emotional.

"Why are you telling me this?" Yao Rong remained silent.

"I've decided to hug the fawn's thighs, and I can't keep such an important secret anymore. It's just that the fawn is simple and straightforward, and even if he knows this secret, he may not know how to deal with it. ”

So Song Xiuping directly skipped Lu Fei's step and found Yao Rong.

Song Xiuping pursed his lips: "There is one thing, even if it is Fang Shaoyuan, I didn't tell it." But I guess you should know about it. ”

Yao Rong's heart moved.

Song Xiuping said word by word: "In the last life, in the fifth year of the last days, the southwest base will be destroyed by a group of monsters. ”

"Those monsters are basically half-human, half-beast. But there was one leader among them, who had almost completely retreated to the form of a beast, indistinguishable from a human. However, when killing, his eyes will turn blood-red. ”

"None of them have game bracelets, and with their strong physical fitness, they can be tough and powerful at dozens of levels."

"And before the destruction of the Southwest Base, I heard that the Dawning Base was also destroyed by them."

……

After a while, Yao Rong exhaled softly: "I hope that only me and you know about this matter." ”

Song Xiuping nodded and promised, "It will rot in my stomach in the future." ”

Yao Rong lowered his eyes.

She thought, she knew why Song Xiuping was reborn.

- In the previous life, those survivor bases were probably slaughtered by the half-human, half-beast army led by Xiao Bai.

While Yao Rong and Song Xiuping were chatting, there were also people discussing the two of them on the other side of the base.

The base commander was dressed in a military uniform, about fifty years old, and his serious face had wrinkles from the years, and his momentum was terrifying.

At this moment, he was holding a document in his hand.

This is the information about Yao Rong that his subordinates went to the base in Jiang Province to investigate.

"At the beginning of the apocalypse, Dr. Yao was taken to the Jiang Provincial Base and began to study the subject of zombie evolution. But three months ago, she suddenly disappeared, and there was news of her again, that is, in Rong County. And at that time, she was still with her son. ”

Fang Weijue muttered a few words to himself, raised his head and asked Xue Anyi, who was standing in front of him: "What do you think, what did she do in the three months she disappeared?" ”

Xue Anyi smiled bitterly: "I can only guess that it is related to her son Lu Fei." ”

"Yao Rong happens to be the leader of life genetics, and Lu is not in the current situation...... Reminds me of a word I've heard......"

"What word?" Xue Anyi's spirit was shocked.

"I've heard of someone doing an experiment in private. The name of that experiment was "Perfect Human." ”

Xue Anyi's pupils shrank, and his breathing became a little heavier: "If Lu Fei's strength is really created by experiments, as long as our base can have a few more people with his strength, those zombie groups wandering near the base are nothing at all......"

Fang Weijue raised his head and looked at Xue Anyi with a slight warning: "Anyi, any perfect human experiment is an ethereal thing, but I know that Yao Rong and Lu Fei are ready-made. Do you want to seize the former, or do you want to firmly co-opt the latter so that the latter willingly becomes a part of our base? ”

Xue Anyi realized that he was in love: "It's still brother-in-law, you are sober." ”

I have to say that Lu Fei's strength is too tempting.

"You have this kind of heart, you still need to practice more." Fang Weijue shook his head and put Yao Rong's information aside, "Yao Rong and Lu Fei's information is the top secret of the base from now on, and no one is allowed to investigate it except you and me." As for the requirements put forward by Yao Rong, everything that can be met is met. ”

With Fang Weijue's words, two days later, Yao Rong got the news that he would move a special laboratory to her in the existing research institute.

And all the experimental equipment will be configured for her.

"If there's anything missing, you can make a list for me, and I'll send someone to find it for you as soon as possible." Xue Anyi smiled gracefully.

"Thank you very much." Yao Rong was not polite, "I don't know when I can go and see that laboratory?" ”

"You can go now, and I'll have my lieutenant drive you there."

Xue Anyi glanced at the adjutant, and the adjutant immediately ran out to prepare the car.

Xue Anyi just wanted to say something more, when a small leather ball suddenly rolled not far away, and Mi Mengmeng, who was wearing a small skirt, ran out chasing the ball from the other side of the wall.

The ball rolled all the way to Xue Anyi's feet, he looked down at the ball, then looked up at Mi Mengmeng, grabbed the ball with a smile, and threw it to Mi Mengmeng with just the right amount of force.

"Mengmeng, did you pick up the ball?"

Lu Fei's voice floated from not far away.

Mi Mengmeng hugged the ball and ran away again.

The car was quickly prepared, Yao Rong pulled Lu Fei into the car, and they all arrived at the laboratory.

After walking around the laboratory, Yao Rong was still very satisfied.

Most of the research equipment that should be available is available, but one or two of them still need to be added. And the lab is not very far from where she lives, so it's easy to go back and forth.

According to the adjutant, she will be equipped with a bicycle at the base, and she will be able to ride her bicycle to and from work every day in the future.

From these small details, you can completely see the attitude of the person in charge of the base towards her and Lu Fei. ：，，
