There was nothing to say all night. The next morning, the survivors rarely got up as early as before. The all-night carnival made them fall asleep one after another until the early morning.
Xu Renjie did not stay in bed, but the sequelae of the hangover were still quite obvious on him.
Not only him, but Lao Lin also suffered from a cracked throat and weak limbs. The pain of yesterday's drinking session was completely gone.
It is no exaggeration to say that you will not survive if you do your own evil. This is true when it comes to drinking.
People always like to "punish" themselves with some exciting things.
Demi and Derek didn't know whether they were still not accustomed to life in a new place, or they were too excited to finally get a safe place to live. In short, they were probably the two who slept the least "safely" in the group last night.
That whole night, the two hugged each other tightly, not talking, just cuddling each other, feeling the warmth of each other's bodies.
Is all this true? This was the question Derek had been asking in his mind last night.
He always felt that everything in front of him was too illusory, and it seemed that he would lose it as soon as he closed his eyes.
It’s no wonder that young people are so uncertain. Thinking about the life Tai lived in the past six months, he was oppressed by the “foot basin country” and lived on the edge of life and death every time. He never had a good night's sleep, and never had a full day of food.
But look now? He is holding his beloved woman in his arms; he is surrounded by trustworthy partners; he is carrying a delicious meal in his belly;
Derek no longer has to climb the wall to go out of school early every morning to get supplies; he no longer has to worry about Demi's safety; he no longer has to suffer the humiliation of the beasts from the "Foot Basin Country".
Of course, the most important thing is that Derek has a sense of belonging for the first time. Because of those people outside, he knows what will happen in the future. He does not have to carry it on his own. He can finally take off the burden that has been carried on his shoulders for more than half a year. heavy burden. He could finally live a normal young life.
Although these may seem so trivial, they are things that Derek has been unable to achieve in the past half year.
"Derrick, do you think they will accept us?" Unlike Derrick, Demi was thinking more about future life issues.
after all. She had been stuck in school for a long time and had not gone out to see the world. Although Derek was similar, the latter had at least left school and wandered around in the abandoned city. So compared to Demi. He is fairly familiar with the outside world.
In addition, both Demi are newcomers to the team, so it is reasonable for Demi to have some concerns.
If the past were left alone, Derek would really not dare to give Demi any guarantee.
But for the team in front of him, especially after yesterday's life and death battle royale, Derek stroked the black silk on Demi's back. He replied with unusual certainty: "Don't worry, this team is reliable. You can see that they are willing to play against thousands of zombies for the sake of trapped members. Based on this friendship, I believe they are not the kind of team that excludes others. Of course. Well, we can’t live and eat for free. We must reflect our value and contribute our strength.”
Derek, who grew up abroad, has more experience than his peers.
Although he is optimistic about the team in front of him, he also knows the principle of more work, more gain, and less work, less gain.
A person must gain the respect of others. The first thing is to have something worthy of respect from others.
After listening to Derek's words, Demi nodded, then took off Derek's arms and started to get up and get out of bed.
Seeing this, Derek gently put his arm around Demi's waist and asked a little inexplicably: "Where are you going?"
Demi turned her pretty face and smiled with a sly smile: "Haha, where else can we go? Didn't you just say that we have to reflect our own value. So this point... of course is to get up and see what we can do That’s helpful.”
Speechless, Derek didn't expect Demi to say such things. With tears on his face, he reluctantly let go of his right hand around his waist.
That's all. He was really embarrassed to express his tender thoughts.
Demi saw Derek's expressive face and immediately understood what he was thinking.
After thinking about it for a while, he collapsed again and then leaned against Derek's ear. Whisper softly: "I'll give you 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, we have to get up."
"Roger, my queen! Guaranteed completion of the task in 15 minutes."
"Ah! What are you doing, haha, slow down, slow down. Look how anxious you are..."
"Queen, there is nothing we can do. It only takes 15 minutes. You don't know my firepower. The military situation is urgent now, and every second counts!"
…
Wei Yang poured a glass of warm water for Lao Lin and Lao Xu. Not long after, Lao Zhao came out of the house.
Seeing this, Lin and Xu blurted out almost at the same time: "How is Lao Zhao, how is Lina doing?"
Old Zhao smiled, his face looked much more energetic than the previous two days, and his pale cheeks finally had a slight blush at this moment: "Not bad, I have to thank Lieutenant, if she hadn't replaced Nana last night Drinking water and boiling medicine, Xiaona can't recover so quickly."
"Oh, Uncle Zhao, look at you, you always say such outspoken things. You took care of me so much in the past, isn't it right for me to take care of Nana now?"
"Yes, Lao Zhao and Xiaona are back, they are our own family members. Let's not talk too much about our own family members. Supporting each other and taking care of each other are fundamental. The basic rules of this team, for you, an old comrade, there is no need for me to be more Let’s repeat it.” Old Lin pointed at the table, pretending to be a deputy leader. Lao Zhao was so shaken that he shook his head.
"Haha, okay, okay, you two, listen to me. Yesterday's operation was generally a success. Now, we have rescued the people. I'm wondering if it's time to discuss the next plan. .”
People who have no long-term worries must worry about the near future, especially in the end of the world when there are many crises, no one knows what will happen in the next second.
Therefore, for Lao Xu, who was born in the military, taking precautions before they happen is one of the principles he abides by.
Although the village is currently in a festive and peaceful atmosphere, who can guarantee that there will be no disaster in the next second.
Lin Junfu and Zhao Yunhai also crawled over from the dead, so of course they understood what Lao Xu was worried about.
At that moment, without any hesitation, they both bowed their heads and agreed: "I agree."
"Okay, then I will call a meeting with the brothers, and we will try to finalize the plan this morning."
After saying that, Lao Xu stood up to leave.
Upon seeing this, Lao Zhao quickly shouted: "Oh, Lao Xu, wait a minute. There is no need to be in such a hurry to discuss things. You see, everyone worked hard all night last night, and most of them are sleeping now. Let's get them up now. , everyone will be groggy and listless by then, and the discussion will be meaningless. In my opinion, we might as well wait until lunch to discuss it."
Thinking about Lao Zhao's concerns, Xu Renjie finally nodded in acquiescence: "Okay, let's discuss it at noon." (To be continued.)
