Hearing the movement in the corridor, Xu Qing gradually came to her senses and walked out of the room quickly.
"Miss Xu, have you noticed it too?"
Seeing Xu Qing appear, Lu Zhengming looked over with a solemn expression and asked hesitantly.
Upon hearing this question, Xu Qing already knew that the time everyone knows now should be the same as the time displayed on her mobile phone.
"What time did you see?!"
Yao Yongkang grabbed his wrist and quickly came to Xu Qing, asking anxiously.
"A quarter past twelve noon!"
Xu Qing frowned and said in a deep voice.
"Same!"
"Why is this happening?! It's noon, why isn't it dawn yet?!"
Yao Yongkang glanced down at his watch, frowned, and looked at the people in the corridor loudly and asked in confusion.
But no one could answer his question.
Ren Feifei stood at the door of her room, with her hands folded across her chest, looking at everything in front of her indifferently, seemingly indifferent to it.
Her heart seemed to have died.
"Let's go find Feng Shuai, he must know something!"
Immediately afterwards, Yao Yongkang looked at everyone and said loudly.
"Yes, go find Feng Shuai."
Lu Zhengming also echoed.
So, under the leadership of Yao Yongkang, Xu Qing, Lu Zhengming, and the four guards responsible for guarding the laboratory walked quickly towards Duan Mufeng's room.
Ren Feifei stood at the door, watching everyone leave, then hesitated, closed the door, and walked to the laboratory alone.
It seemed like she was no longer interested in anything except researching reagents.
Soon, everyone arrived at the door of Duanmu Feng's room.
"Feng Shuai?!"
Yao Yongkang hesitated, then summoned up the courage to knock on the door.
But after knocking a few times, he found that there was no movement inside, and he couldn't help but look full of doubts.
"Feng Shuai?!"
Yao Yongkang continued to knock on the door, becoming more and more anxious.
At this moment, the elevator door opened, and Tang Jun and Wu Jun also came to the top floor.
"Team Tang."
Xu Qing turned around, took a look, shook the phone in her hand, and said softly.
The time displayed on the screen has changed to twelve twenty-one.
Tang Jun nodded and slowly came closer.
"Captain Tang, where is Feng Shuai? Why is there no response even after I knocked on the door for a long time?"
Yao Yongkang turned to look at Tang Jun and asked in confusion.
"It should be on the rooftop."
Tang Jun hesitated and said something, then walked straight to the stairs.
Seeing this, everyone hurriedly followed.
On the rooftop, Duan Mufeng stood alone on the edge of the rooftop, holding an almost burned out cigarette in his hand, looking at the gloomy sky, frowning slightly.
When everyone came to the rooftop, the tension in their hearts became more and more obvious, because they could see it more realistically here.
There was almost no light in the entire sky, and it was impossible to distinguish between day and night.
"Feng Shuai?!"
"What's going on?!"
Yao Yongkang shouted and was the first to quickly walk behind Duan Mufeng.
Hearing Yao Yongkang's voice, Duanmu Feng came back to his senses and retracted his thoughts. Only then did he realize that the cigarette in his hand had burned out and the sparks had burned his skin.
"They're all here."
Duan Mufeng threw away the cigarette butt and slowly turned around to look at everyone, with no expression on his face.
Maybe it's time to tell them.
"Feng Shuai, are you coming?"
Tang Jun slowly took a step forward and asked with a solemn expression.
Among all the people present, only he and Wu Jun knew about Yong Ye's existence.
Duan Mufeng glanced at Tang Jun and nodded slowly.
"What's coming?"
"What are you talking about?"
Yao Yongkang frowned and looked at Duan Mufeng and Tang Jun in confusion.
Others also looked puzzled.
"Eternal night is coming."
Duan Mufeng raised his head and glanced at the sky, and said calmly.
"Eternal Night? What is Eternal Night?!"
Lu Zhengming asked puzzledly.
"After the end of the world, the earth will usher in four darkest moments, corresponding to spring, summer, autumn and winter, namely storms, volcanoes, eternal night, and glaciers."
"According to the time, eternal night is falling, so day and night cannot be distinguished, and the sun, moon and stars cannot be seen."
"The so-called eternal night, also called the polar night, means that from now on there will be no more day and night, only darkness for three months."
Duanmu Feng glanced across the faces of everyone present and slowly explained.
After listening to Duanmu Feng's answer, everyone present fell silent, and their faces became more solemn. Once upon a time, they thought that the doomsday that Duan Mufeng mentioned all day long was just zombies running rampant and mutant beasts all over the city. They didn't expect that there would be such a thing. Most dangers come from nature.
They can't imagine what they will encounter when these four darkest moments really come.
The hope that was originally ignited in my heart gradually became less firm.
Without seeing the sun for three months, no one knows what will happen tomorrow.
They originally thought that they would have everything if they had the reagents, but now it seems that there are still many survival tests that they have not experienced.
How long can you live?
This is the question on everyone's mind right now.
"Feng Shuai, why do you always know these things that we don't know?"
Lu Zhengming, who was the calmest one besides Tang Jun and Wu Jun, suddenly asked this question hesitantly.
Tang Jun and Wu Jun also wanted to know the answer to this question.
"You will find out soon enough."
"But now is not the time. The most important thing now is that you must be prepared to face the eternal night. Don't worry, as long as I am here, I will do my best to ensure that you survive at any time."
Duan Mufeng glanced at Lu Zhengming, shook his head, and said seriously.
He refused to answer the previous question.
Just because these people in front of him haven't reached the moment where they can accept his origin.
Everyone looked at each other, nodded silently, stopped asking questions, and turned around and left the rooftop one after another, each and every one of them distraught and uneasy.
After watching everyone leave the rooftop, Duanmu Feng rushed towards and turned to look at the gloomy sky, frowning slightly.
Although it has not yet completely plunged into complete darkness, this second disaster is coming faster than he imagined.
...
Two days later.
Rooftop laboratory.
Ren Feifei is conducting an experiment in front of an instrument. Since the world has entered the doomsday era, ready-made experimental products are no longer available.
Therefore, she directly regarded herself as a guinea pig undergoing experiments. She would inject the developed experimental reagents into her body every time, and record and adjust the experimental data.
Although she understood all of Sun Simiao's research topics, it was still difficult to actually control them, much more difficult than completing those semi-finished reagents.
Fortunately, after she tried again and again, she was getting closer and closer to success.
As for the helper Yao Yongkang, he is no different from trash. Apart from some lengthy theoretical knowledge, he can't help at all.
At this time, Yao Yongkang was dozing off on a chair not far away, and his snoring would reach Ren Feifei's ears from time to time.
In just a few days, he seemed to have lost more than one lap of weight. He had not had a good night's sleep since becoming Ren Feifei's assistant.
In his impression, Ren Feifei is a lunatic who only knows how to work. After working day and night, she is even more busy and has no end, sometimes even without rest for the whole day.
Since the eternal night has fallen, almost everyone has fallen into endless depression. In a world where day and night do not distinguish, it is always difficult for everyone to feel the same as before.
Just like fish will die out of water, flowers and plants will wither without sunlight.
Just when Ren Feifei looked impatiently at Yao Yongkang, who kept snoring, the light tube above his head suddenly flashed several times quickly, and then went out instantly, and the entire laboratory fell into darkness!
power cut!
Ren Feifei was stunned for a moment and carefully retracted her hand, for fear of knocking over the latest reagent sample that had just been debugged in the dark.
"Yao Yongkang?!"
Ren Feifei took a deep breath, tried to adapt to the darkness in front of her, and shouted loudly.
But what answered her was still Yao Yongkang's snoring.
Maybe he was really sleepy.
"Yao Yongkang?!"
Ren Feifei continued to shout and raised her voice.
"Um?"
This time, Yao Yongkang was finally awakened, agreed in a daze, and stood up reflexively. However, due to the darkness in front of his eyes, he accidentally tripped over the chair and fell like a dog...
