Don't Pick Up Boyfriends From The Trash - Chap 124
It’s time to clock out, someone will be picking up soon, and Xiaochi Chi must leave as soon as possible.
It’s just that he had a live animal caught on him, so I don’t know if he could get past the scanning checkpoint at the gate.
061 said, “Don’t worry about it, you can just go straight there.”
Since his sixth teacher said so, Xiaochi Chi stopped worrying, wrapped the baby panther in a soft blanket and put it in his backpack, took off his sterile suit, walked out of the nursery, locked the door, went to the dressing room to change back into his original pants and warm windbreaker, punched in at the door, and then walked calmly to the scanner.
The system scan shows that the employee Qiuyun Ding , is normally off duty.
Things to carry on your person: key card, money card, communicator, sketchbook, pencil, motorcycle keys, and a hand warmer that is being heated.
Xiaochi Chi was able to muddle through.
He doesn’t have to account for the disappearance of the baby leopard, since he won’t have to come to work from tomorrow anyway.
He sat across the motorcycle and thought about his next plan of action.
He could have run to the relevant news outlets and made public everything he knew, and perhaps fewer people would have died.
But he could not provide evidence to support his claim, and if he went, he would probably be kicked out as a psychopath.
But since we know, we can’t do nothing.
He went to a large shopping mall nearby, found a lounge, picked up the communicator, spent 20 minutes editing a post about the world will end at 3:00 am tomorrow morning, to tell all that can be said, check and send out.
After sending it, he said, “Mr. Six, help me force the post to the top.”
061 hacked into the forum system, overstepped its authority, and falsely created untraceable IP addresses and identity information from the data level.
Xiaochi Chi also contacted Qiuyun Ding’s comrades, but none of them answered the phone.
He called the duty room and told them that he was just in time for the January emergency pullout and everyone was out of camp.
…… got.
He forwarded the post he had just made to all of Qiuyun Ding’s friends and mentors, and then dropped the communicator back into his backpack.
A steaming soft mass poked its head out from the edge of the open zipper while he was opening the bag, curiously surveying the human world.
Xiaochi Chi pulls the bag back to himself and reaches out to touch its soft, fleshy chin.
Xiaochi Chi : “Hello there.”
Baby milk panther: “Ow.”
Xiaochi Chi : “Do you want to follow me to buy something?”
Baby milk panther: “Owwwwwwww.”
Xiaochi Chi rejected it with a straight face: “No, I’m going to store you in my locker.”
Seemingly guessing that he would be temporarily abandoned, the baby leopard also did not passionately pair ow with him, arching and arching to climb out of the backpack, jumping onto Xiaochi Chi’s shoulders, hugging his neck and pretending to be a scarf.
Xiaochi Chi tsked and took off the baby leopard, which was about one and a half palms big, and pressed its front paws with both hands, making it lie flat and exposing its belly, taking his thumbs to scratch its belly gently as a punishment for its disobedience.
The baby leopard was not expecting such treatment and rolled between Xiaochi Chi’s paws, itching and comfortable, opening its mouth to reveal two small white pointed teeth, wailing in a thin voice.
Xiaochi Chi is rubbing his belly to get excited, and heard 061 as if he could not stand something, gently sucked a cold breath.
A moment later, he said helplessly, “…… Chi Xiao , don’t play. Do the business.”
The business is certainly to be done.
In the end, the little leopard was ruthlessly stuffed into the locker by Xiaochi Chi.
Xiaochi Chi bought high-precision sealed buckets, large quantities of rice, noodles, grains, salt, honey, high-calorie military cookies, spirits and 15 quantities of vegetables and fruits, etc. All the pots and pans were of the best quality.
Life appliances, he purchased three military tents, seven sets of sleeping bags, ten sets of cold clothing, multifunctional military shovel, knife, dagger, candles, matches, flint, flashlights, hand-cranked generators, binoculars, cowhide backpack, toilet paper, and so on.
Xiaochi Chi has bought everything he can think of.
And the one-time purchase of such a large quantity does not require the customer to carry it by hand at all.
Each customer is given a small steel carrying basket upon entering the mall, and a model of each item is sealed in tempered glass, with a box of plastic coins about a size larger than a coin placed in front of the glass case.
To select an item, customers simply place the corresponding plastic coin into the small carrying basket.
Xiaochi Chi puts a small basket full of plastic coins onto a track, and the AI automatically starts the checkout.
Using a gentle female voice with no sense of mechanics, it reported the things Xiaochi Chi wanted to buy one by one, and even initiated a conversation with Xiaochi Chi: “Buying so many things, are you going to play a wilderness survival game?”
Xiaochi Chi smiles, “Well. I’m in charge of purchasing.”
Now the so-called “wilderness” has long ceased to exist, so among young people, a game called “simulation of wilderness survival” began to emerge, the game operator specially set aside a piece of land, with a variety of intelligent AI to create a variety of bad weather and dangerous terrain The game operator specially set aside a piece of land, with a variety of intelligent AI to create a variety of harsh weather and dangerous terrain, so that these bored young people to spend time.
The female AI smiled along with him, “Have a good time.”
The AI’s voice is full of sincerity.
She is not shy about sending her blessings to everyone who passes by and patronizes her.
Everyone is also used to the idea that it’s the procedure that makes it happen, and few people think about whether her smile is genuine or fake.
Xiaochi Chi returned the smile without changing his face, “Thank you.”
He took the cargo card from the female AI, went downstairs to the pick-up area, swiped the card, and the properly sealed cargo was shipped out of the shipping port’s crawler box by box.
The AI at the pickup desk politely asks, “Do you need us to courier your goods to your home, or do you need us to assist you with loading your goods onto your car?”
Xiaochi Chi chose the former, paid some money and agreed to have it delivered to Qiuyun Ding’s parents’ home in Dongcheng at 11 p.m. sharp.
As he started the motorcycle up, Xiaochi Chi looked up at the blue, blue sky and thought, “It’s so easy to make people willingly become pampered pigs.
Leaving the mall, he spent two hours running through the city’s pharmacies, purchasing a large number of drugs, most of which were heart drugs, as for other anti-diarrheal drugs, anti-blood gauze, bruising oil, anti-allergy drugs, all the commonly used class of drugs, he bought them all.
And all these drugs are converted into data by 061 and stored into the warehouse.
After stocking up, he sat on his motorcycle, downloaded all the instant maps of each province and city on his communicator, and circled several locations on the map.
061 reminded him, “Antibiotics are important.”
Xiaochi Chi : “Well. But it’s an over-the-counter drug. I marked a couple of pharmacies that sell antibiotics, so I’ll have to wait for the disaster to happen and make another trip.”
061 said, “Those drugs could actually be bought a little more.”
“It’s enough to buy this much without arousing suspicion.” Xiaochi Chi said, “Also, I can’t buy the medicine empty. In case the calamity breaks out, which person has a need for medicine, come to the pharmacy and still be able to grab it.”
The way Xiaochi Chi talks with his head bowed like this is both sober and gentle, giving 061 the urge to hug him.
So the baby panther managed to escape again and got into Xiaochi Chi’s clothes before he could react and peeked out of his turtleneck collar.
The pupil color of the little leopard is grey and blue, bright, like a star reflected in the clear blue water.
This time Xiaochi Chi did not send it away.
He thought for a moment and asked the baby panther, “Cold? Hungry?”
The little milk panther stepped back and forth on his forehead with all four paws.
Xiaochi Chi couldn’t do anything about this clingy little guy, so he asked 061, “What’s wrong with him?”
061 replied with a smile, “You just let it lie down for a while.”
Xiaochi Chi thought about it and let it go, put the communicator away and started the car.
When the car shook, the baby panther didn’t hold on and rolled from Xiaochi Chi’s collar to his waist and abdomen with a grunt.
It seemed to be confused by the fall, and it took a long time to climb up from underneath and re-climb onto Xiaochi Chi’s collar.
The man on the motorcycle, with a leopard cub, drove through the cold winter-like autumn day in the direction of home.
It was the last place he could shelter before the world was destroyed.
Ding’s father and mother were not much surprised that their son suddenly came home without saying hello.
Qiuyun Ding’s parents, both surnamed Ding, were neighbors and grew up together as childhood sweethearts, getting married at the age of 20 and having Qiuyun Ding at the age of 21.
The old couple is very affectionate, every year must spend Tanabata and Valentine’s Day, said the world of the two is the world of the two, never take Qiuyun Ding play. One Valentine’s Day, the old couple went out to see a movie, a candlelit dinner, and the mother came back with a big bouquet of cornflowers, but left Qiuyun Ding home alone to cook noodles.
Although Qiuyun Ding often cries out on the surface, he is envious of the relationship between the young couple and the old one.
When he opened the door and saw his father, Xiaochi Chi’s body suddenly trembled uncontrollably, and a sour and hot emotion sealed his throat directly.
He stroked his chest and thought, “This is probably the mood of Qiuyun Ding.
Ding Wenzhi smiled at his son’s momentary unnaturalness, and did not ask why his son ran home, reaching out to pull people into the house, turning back to the kitchen and shouting, “Xiao Ding, Yun Qiu is back.”
Ding family installed artificial intelligence is not much, Ding’s parents believe that their own hands cooking to taste, so one, three, five father do, two, four, six mother do, Sunday guessing to decide who do, the arrangement is clear.
Ding’s mother, Ding Xiuxiu, is stir-frying vegetables, and the aroma of the dishes is overwhelming.
She poked her head out, ” Yun Qiu , what dish do you want to eat, mom will add one for you.”
Ding Wenzhi waved his hand: “Beautiful to him. Let him run back without saying hello. Don’t give him extra food, just give him whatever we both eat.”
Xiaochi Chi : “……” is really a real pro-dad.
Qiuyun Ding called Ding’s father Lao Ding head, Ding’s mother called Ding sister, the family relationship is very good, so do not hold anything.
Ding Wenzhi quickly noticed the little leopard his son was holding in his arms: “Yo, a pet for both of us?”
Xiaochi Chi put the little leopard on the ground, it did not run around, only snuggled in his lap to doze, good as can be.
He said, “I bought it for myself.”
Xiaochi Chi went to the kitchen, took a small bowl, twisted the cod liver oil capsule he bought in the supermarket downstairs, mixed the goat milk powder with warm water to the right temperature, took a disposable syringe and gently fed it into the baby leopard’s mouth.
The little leopard is not fussy, give food to open mouth, and do not mind the difference in taste between this and the carefully blended premium pure goat’s milk in the incubator, eat bar, bar, very happy.
As it swallowed, its ears shrugged, its pink tongue was colored milky, and it spat a sweet, milky bubble as it pulled the syringe away from its mouth.
Ding’s father jumped at the chance to touch one: “This is a nice cat.”
The little leopard, who had eaten and drank enough, bypassed Father Ding’s hand and plopped down next to Xiaochi Chi’s left hand and dozed off with his eyes closed.
Ding’s father asked, “Where did you get this cat from, it’s quite rare.”
Xiaochi Chi: “It’s from a classmate.”
Ding’s father: “What’s the name?”
Xiaochi Chi didn’t blink: “The coal boss.”
061: “……” He once again saw Xiaochi Chi’s ability to pick names without limits.
Ding’s father laughed, “What kind of a shitty name is that?”
Xiaochi Chi thought of a number of names on his way back to Ding’s house, among which “Coal Boss” best fits Little Panther’s physical appearance.
However, after some consideration, Xiaochi Chi has given up on giving it an official name for now.
The leopard is ultimately a leopard, wild and untamed, even from childhood, it is also a dangerous untimely bomb – bomb.
As for what to do with it in the future, Xiaochi Chi is still a bit confused, and simply put it aside for later.
Before dinner was served, Xiaochi Chi took a look at the communicator.
Friends who received the post he forwarded said they would be prepared, but uniformly in a joking tone, and apparently none believed him.
Xiaochi Chi gave the same response to everyone: “No kidding.”
After sending it, he went to glance at the forum again.
Under his post, most of the replies were ridiculing the posters for being nuts and worrying about the sky, and there was also a lot of discussion about what people should do to prepare in case extreme cold weather sufficient to exterminate the human race does come.
Xiaochi Chi put the communicator away and didn’t look at it any more.
When the meal was over, he accompanied his parents for a short walk, and when he returned, he urged them to take a quick shower and rest.
Ding’s father wanted to watch the game for a while, but Xiaochi Chi pushed him back: “Old Ding, who was hospitalized six months ago, be careful with your heart.”
Ding’s father couldn’t help it: “Fine, fine, sleep on it.”
Xiaochi Chi spread out his palm toward him and shook it.
Ding’s father grinned and reluctantly handed over his communicator.
Ding’s mother just watched the father and son’s hilarity from the side, smiling and doing her embroidery.
Under her hands, a double-sided embroidery of nine fishes, “Happy Family”, is almost finished.
After his parents went to bed, Xiaochi Chi drove his father’s car to a nearby gas station, filled up the tank, and took three barrels of gas and put them in the trunk.
Soon after he returned, the goods he bought at the mall arrived in the afternoon.
He directs the robots to bring the goods into the living room as gently as possible, and when they leave, without Xiaochi Chi’s orders, 061 data-rates all the goods and hides them in the warehouse, and puts a dozen 20-liter high-density buckets under the faucet, one by one, to be filled with filtered water.
When everything is done, Xiaochi Chi lies down under the covers and chooses to receive the next message line before waiting for the disaster to begin.
……
Qiuyun Ding is a pragmatic, action-oriented person with a bit of romance.
When Xinzhi Gu wasn’t here, he was often out on patrol alone, speeding along highways that tended to be deserted, searching for gas, food and survivors.
Estimating that the locomotive was almost out of fuel, he stopped the car, took out the fuel gun and spare diesel from the storage space under the seat, hummed a little song to refuel the car, occasionally sat down to rest and look at the distant scenery.
He did not have the habit of smoking, in order to relieve stress, he often asked for cigarette cases from his smoking-loving teammates, and used a carbon pencil to trace the post-apocalyptic wasteland on the cigarette cases.
He met Xinzhi Gu when he had collected a thick pile of cigarette casings.
The first night they met Xinzhi Gu, they slept.
One is because I like it, the second is to reduce stress, and the third is because the feeling of being reunited again after the robbery is really worth celebrating.
Both are the first time, completely reckless with the thin experience of watching the film.
Qiuyun Ding’s close-quarters combat skills were always inferior to the seemingly showy Xinzhi Gu, and the same applies in bed.
Xinzhi Gu circled Qiuyun Ding from behind, his left hand circled his waist, forceful grip, the right hand is open to protect his throat position, although the force is light, but always give Qiuyun Ding an illusion that at any time will be his neck a choke.
The two bodies close together, the heart beating wildly in unison, thumping.
Qiuyun Ding, who was in the lower position, reached out and grabbed the turf on the ground, grabbing a handful of dripping grass juice.
After the incident, the two of them sweated profusely and felt exhausted even moving a little.
Xinzhi Gu leaned against the tent, spread his legs and let Qiuyun Ding sit against his arms.
He lights up a cigarette and asks Qiuyun Ding if he needs one.
Qiuyun Ding does not smoke, but he took the initiative to hold his wrist and took a puff from his hand.
According to Xinzhi Gu, when the disaster occurred, Xinzhi Gu escaped from the army and tried to find Qiuyun Ding, but there was no trace of him.
“Such a coincidence, I also went to look for you.” Qiuyun Ding said, “When I went there, the camp had already been attacked, it should be the vines that originally grew near the site ……”
When it comes to such things, Qiuyun Ding laughs bitterly.
Now the world, flowers and plants can become elves, kill people with chopping vegetables is no different.
Qiuyun Ding said, “I thought you …… were gone, like my parents.”
When the disaster struck that year, he did his best to get back to his parents’ house, only to find that his father had suffered a heart attack induced by the sudden drop in temperature.
My mother hurried down to the floor to get medicine for my father, but she was only wearing a thin layer of pajamas.
Because of too much panic and the loss of electric lighting, my mother tripped and fell, hit her head on the corner of the bed and fainted for a while.
By the time Qiuyun Ding returned home, his old Ding head and sister Ding were gone.
Qiuyun Ding did not tell Xinzhi Gu this, but only looked back at him to confirm that he was not a dream of his own.
Xinzhi Gu, as if guessing his anxiety and concern, pressed his chin and kissed him.
Xinzhi Gu said, “See, I’m not dead.”
Qiuyun Ding separated from him, and the smile spilled out of her eyes without reservation: “Well.”
He asked again, “How did you know I would be back?”
The place where he found Xinzhi Gu was the city where Qiuyun Ding originally lived.
Xinzhi Gu said, “I couldn’t find you, so I had to wait where I was.”
Qiuyun Ding’s heart skipped a beat: “How long have you been waiting?”
Xinzhi Gu said, “From the time it got cold, I waited in that supermarket. I thought that if the Ding team needed supplies, they would always come.”
This wait is a full two years.
Qiuyun Ding has nothing else to say.
He turned around, facing straight towards Xinzhi Gu, and half-kneeled and kissed him on the lips.
After reuniting with Xinzhi Gu, Qiuyun Ding’s life took on a new color.
The teammates of the same team said, “The original team Ding looks so good when he smiles.
Qiuyun Ding, while frying vegetables with oil extracted from animals, replied with a smile, “Of course.”
Lanlan Yan, a gossipy teammate, came up and asked, “Team Ding, who is your vice team member?”
Qiuyun Ding : “Comrades in arms.”
Lanlan Yan : “Oh, war – friend.”
Qiuyun Ding made a gesture to kick her, she ran away laughing, the bells on her wrist jingled into one.
As she ran to the door, she happened to bump into Xinzhi Gu and saluted him animatedly.
Xinzhi Gu looked at her, ignored her, walked straight to Qiuyun Ding and asked, “What’s fried?”
“Okra.” Qiuyun Ding’s eyes were bright, “I remember you like to eat it.”
Xinzhi Gu was a little surprised: “Where did you get it?”
Qiuyun Ding gave him a kiss and smiled: “Don’t worry about this. No matter what you want to eat, I can get it for you.”
In the post-apocalyptic world, this is the highest and best promise.
Qiuyun Ding is to Xinzhi Gu good from the heart, after all, is lost and then get people, for him is particularly precious.
Xinzhi Gu loved The Little Prince and told Qiuyun Ding about it when he was in the company. Qiuyun Ding even laughed at him, saying that he was so old and still liked to read children’s stuff.
This time, Qiuyun Ding specially asked his teammates to get the book from an abandoned bookstore, and carefully turned all the words into pictures, filling up seventy-five cigarette cases.
On Xinzhi Gu’s twenty-sixth birthday, Qiuyun Ding gave him this gift.
Xinzhi Gu, however, was not very enthusiastic about the gift, hugging Qiuyun Ding and breaking his hand to look at it.
Qiuyun Ding is so focused on painting these days that the calluses on the little fingers of her right hand are red and painful.
Xinzhi Gu kissed the cocoon of his painting before going through the cigarette cases with him one by one.
Xinzhi Gu said to Qiuyun Ding, “My favorite story is the story of the little prince and the rose.”
Alone on a small planet, the young prince planted a rose and treated her with care and pampering.
There was a time when he thought his roses were unique in the world, until he came to Earth and discovered that there were a full 5,000 roses in just one garden.
The little prince was sad for a long time because of this discovery, but after the fox’s enlightenment, he realized that the arrogant, haughty rose, which had accompanied him for a long time, was unique and irreplaceable to the little prince.
He said, he took Qiuyun Ding’s shoulders tightly and read the dialogue written on the cigarette case.
…… This is what the little prince said to the 5,000 roses after he woke up.
“‘You are beautiful, but you are empty, because no one can die for you.'”
At that time, Qiuyun Ding did not understand the meaning of Xinzhi Gu’s words, only that the words were very unlucky, and reached out to slap his face as a sign of discipline.
Xinzhi Gu kissed Qiuyun Ding.
Although Qiuyun Ding was immersed in the joy of being reunited with Xinzhi Gu, he didn’t forget what he had to do.
It is true that human beings are responsible for the global cooling and the theft of artificial intelligence, but the sudden death of Qiuyun Ding’s parents is a great blow to Qiuyun Ding.
And with the underhandedness of artificial intelligence, Qiuyun Ding has had many teammates die at the hands of new humans or at the mouths of evolved animals over the years.
It is impossible to make him not hate or resent.
Shortly after Xinzhi Gu’s arrival, Qiuyun Ding selected another base station and prepared to proceed with the destruction.
Who would have thought that the base station would be surrounded by a group of mutated hyenas when they did it.
Although Qiuyun Ding and Xinzhi Gu tried their best to cover, Lanlan Yan was still broken inside.
Found Lanlan Yan fell out of line, Qiuyun Ding still want to rush to the base station, Xinzhi Gu without saying anything to carry him on the shoulder, striding away.
The last thing Qiuyun Ding saw was a hand of Lanlan Yan reaching out from a mob of hyenas.
Silver handbells tinkled, accompanied by Lanlan Yan’s hoarse shout: “Go away! Leave me alone!”
However, Lanlan Yan is still only a nineteen-year-old girl, and she really overestimates her ability to cope with real death.
After running far away, Lanlan Yan’s harsh scream mixed with the sound of hyenas gorging on human flesh came from the direction of the base station: “Ding team! Ding team …… save me, I don’t want to die-”
In the truck, there are four or five people pressed Qiuyun Ding, to control did not let him jump out of the car.
As Xinzhi Gu pulled the truck away, he glanced at the base station from afar and then withdrew his gaze.
The car drove away for a long time before Qiuyun Ding gave up the struggle.
His eyes were bloodshot, and he lay exhausted on his back in the truck’s bucket with Lanlan Yan’s handbell ringing in his ears.
Jingle bells, jingle bells.
Lanlan Yan was a veteran of the team and had been with Qiuyun Ding since the team’s inception. Her death was a huge blow to Qiuyun Ding.
He went back and forth on what went wrong with that plan.
Xinzhi Gu couldn’t bear to see him like this, so she hugged him and gently soothed him, “It’s not your fault.”
Qiuyun Ding said, “She called me a Ding team, she is my responsibility.”
Qiuyun Ding is not stupid. He thought that they were probably being watched.
It seems that striking base stations and destroying AI’s habitat has indeed caused AI’s to panic.
But with Lanlan Yan’s experience, Qiuyun Ding was unwilling to let everyone take the risk in front of the storm. Even though a few young people volunteered to continue the fight against the AI party, Qiuyun Ding tried to appease them, intending to survive the dangerous period.
But within a week, their makeshift hideout was breached by a group of neanderthals.
Finally, the three young men were tackled.
None agreed to become slaves of the new humans, and one even attempted suicide.
Finding these old humans unwilling to cooperate, the new humans cut off the heads of three and hung the heads from one of the tallest trees nearby.
Among the small group that boarded the truck and fled in haste, someone saw the head of a familiar friend, shaking and surrounded by branches and leaves, like three full and large coconuts.
He wanted to call Qiuyun Ding, but just opened his mouth and swallowed his words.
Qiuyun Ding turned his back on the tree, clenched his teeth, biting until his mouth was full of blood.
Xinzhi Gu hugged Qiuyun Ding’s shoulders, but Qiuyun Ding tensed himself up into a bow.
He pondered frantically how those new humans with no psychic powers had found their way here.
Looking at those new humans, it was obvious that they were prepared.
Could it be that they were targeted during their retreat a few days ago?
But Qiuyun Ding has always done things properly, even after the loss of Lanlan Yan, he also braced himself to look around and did not find the tail.
He also wondered if something was wrong internally, but he checked everyone’s belongings and didn’t find anything like a tracker.
Those who follow him are his comrades of many years, he certainly does not suspect.
For a long time, Qiuyun Ding was thinking about this question.
It was not until much later that Qiuyun Ding, who was left with only seven people around, was captured alive by a group of New Humans, and when interrogated, he learned that most of the New Humans had made a contract with the AI.
In several cities where only the new humans exist, the AI has resumed normal operations, it facilitates the new humans, and accordingly, the new humans must kill the rebels for the AI’s.
They are targeting old humans like Qiuyun Ding who dare to attack AI, and new humans who are “in cahoots” with old humans and do not want to be slaves.
After being captured, Qiuyun Ding had already made up his mind not to reveal the whereabouts of the escaped Xinzhi Gu and his other partners in any case.
He would rather die.
However, when he was forced to watch the hanging of his companions and thought he would soon be freed, the group of new humans surrounding the execution site did not intend to kill him.
After a long time, the crowd consciously parted a pathway to both sides, as Moses parted the sea, their leader noisy Qiuyun Ding walked over.
Qiuyun Ding looked up and a thunderbolt exploded in his head.
In those few seconds, it seems that someone took a □ against his eye sockets and fired a shot, exploding his eyes stinging and his head hurting as if he had been drilled with numerous holes by a fine bullet.
It was clearly Xinzhi Gu who came towards him.
Half of Xinzhi Gu’s body was stained with blood and his cheeks and mouth were splattered with blood, but he did not have a half-evil aura, he was still the same Xinzhi Gu of the past.
Qiuyun Ding thought a lot in those few moments, about how the blood on his body came to be, about the dozens of companions taken away by Xinzhi Gu, about the three heads hung on the tree, about Lanlan Yan’s hand bell, about the unexpected reunion that day, and about what Xinzhi Gu had said to him.
He said, I can’t find you, I can only wait in the same place. Waiting for a full two years.
Only when Xinzhi Gu walked up to him, the white Qiuyun Ding lifted his face and asked, “Have you really been waiting for me for two years?”
Xinzhi Gu knew what he was talking about and easily picked up his words, “Yes, I waited in that supermarket for two years and killed a lot of new humans.”
He added, “So, they were afraid of me and made me their leader.”
Qiuyun Ding heard his own hoarse voice: “You …… betrayed ……”
Xinzhi Gu said easily, “Well.”
…… just as he talked to Qiuyun Ding about his defection from the army with a relaxed tone, as if it was a natural thing for him, Xinzhi Gu, to betray the old humans and join the AI and the new humans, as an old human who had not yet mutated.
Qiuyun Ding dreamily said, “…… why ah.”
Is he being threatened.
Or for some other reason ……
“Don’t think too much.” Xinzhi Gu seemed to really be able to read his mind and caressed his cheek with a hand stained with the blood of Qiuyun Ding’s companion, “I’m not afraid of them, and no one can threaten me. But I know that the AI is unhappy with your continued two years of sabotage and wants to remove you. You can’t keep living with the risk of dying at any moment …… you can’t, I forbid it. So, I must protect you.”
Xinzhi Gu cupped his face as if he were kissing Qiuyun Ding for the first time and whispered, “They promised me that they would stop hunting Ding as long as I helped out and cut off all the wings of Ding’s team that were in the way.”
Qiuyun Ding looked up at him and felt like he was in a nightmare.
Yet the hanged corpse of his companion was still on the sidelines, and the tears that flowed across his cheeks were scaldingly hot.
His voice was filled with tears: ” Xinzhi Gu, you have the guts to come straight at me! –I’m not going to do it.”
Xinzhi Gu stroked his face, “I came for you. …… It’s always been like this, since the army, it’s always been like this.”
His valley lieutenant squatted down and looked levelly at the kneeling Qiuyun Ding, his tone slightly gentler: “You obviously liked me all along, but you refused to face it. If not for that time when the machine went out of control, how would you have known how important I am in your mind?”
After saying that, he took Qiuyun Ding into his arms and whispered, “It’s just that I didn’t think I would let you get hurt that badly. I’m sorry, I’ll get a handle on it in the future.”
Ding team stiffly crouched in the arms of the Valley vice squad, after a long silence, actually inexplicably laughed out, laughing all over.
His past comrades, who got his current comrades killed, and said, it was all for him.
How funny.
Gradually, Qiuyun Ding got tired of laughing, and his eyes were left with boundless exhaustion and emptiness.
Three days later, Qiuyun Ding in prison finally found the opportunity to break through the guards and jump to his death as a way to atone for his comrades’ sins.
……
After reading all the world line, Xiaochi Chi’s only thought is, wait a minute, I jerked a leopard pressed.
