"power cut?!"
Yao Yongkang wiped the blood seeping out of his nostrils, bared his teeth and asked.
When he fell, his nose accidentally hit the table leg, causing a nosebleed.
"Hurry out and see what's going on!"
Ren Feifei ordered in a deep voice towards the direction where Yao Yongkang's voice came from in the darkness.
Yao Yongkang endured the pain and agreed, groping towards the door, almost falling every three steps.
But there was no other way. The director gave an order. If he didn't comply, Ren Feifei would have to sue Duan Mufeng.
On the other side, in the dark room, Xu Qing sat quietly on a chair in front of the window, bending her legs and resting her chin on her knees, looking out the dark window.
The sudden power outage did not make her panic, thinking that there was just a circuit failure.
Her thoughts were all about her family.
She had been separated from her family for half a month, and her life or death was uncertain. Although she usually never mentioned a word in front of everyone, she always prayed silently, hoping that they were still alive.
She never asked Duanmu Feng to save her family, because she knew it would be useless. Feng Shuai only saved people who were useful to him, and everyone here knew it.
But she couldn't help but often look down on herself in her heart, because she felt that she was too cowardly to have the courage to go out and see if they were still alive.
"I must be the most unfilial child in the world, right?"
Xu Qing smiled bitterly, looked at the few faint lights coming from the distant buildings, and murmured to herself.
There were lights, which meant that there were still people alive in the city. She didn't know if her family members were there.
But maybe those lights were just because those who were running for their lives didn't have time to turn off the lights when the doomsday came.
People are going to die, who cares if they turn off the lights when they leave?
Almost every night, she would sit here, looking at the little lights until she was too sleepy to close her eyes.
She doesn't know why, but she has regarded it as the place where her family is. It seems that only in this way can she feel better and not be so ashamed of herself.
But at this moment, Xu Qing suddenly found that the lights in her sight suddenly went out bit by bit, and then the entire city could no longer see any light, falling into true and complete darkness!
She suddenly felt as if she was blind and couldn't see her fingers when she reached out!
She panicked, not only because of the sudden endless darkness, but also because of the extinguishing of the light in the distance!
She seemed to have seen her parents and sister die under the encirclement and interception of mutants!
A tear suddenly rolled down the corner of her eye!
At this moment, she lost control!
Then, she desperately took out her mobile phone, turned on the flashlight, and rushed to the door quickly!
She was going to find Feng Shuai and ask him what was going on. Can you make those few lights in the distance reappear?
"ah!"
But just when she opened the door, she suddenly found a dark shadow at the door!
Under the close illumination of the flashlight, I couldn't tell what it was for a while. I only saw a big face full of nosebleeds, looking at her with wide eyes!
So after exclaiming in surprise, she without hesitation hit that ugly and terrifying face with the phone in her hand!
"Ouch..."
A painful scream sounded, and the black figure at the door covered his face and fell to the ground.
It was Yao Yongkang who stumbled all the way out of the laboratory, groping for the walls and moving slowly toward Duanmu Feng's room in his memory!
When Xu Qing opened the door and came out, he was also startled, so his eyes widened in fear, and the nosebleeds in his nostrils had not been completely wiped away.
"Yao Yongkang?!"
Xu Qing was stunned for a moment, then quickly came to her senses, shined a flashlight on Yao Yongkang who was squatting on the ground, and asked in surprise.
"Miss Xu, did I offend you in my previous life?!"
Yao Yongkang painfully covered his forehead that was hit by the mobile phone and complained.
This was the second time he was beaten by Xu Qing.
"Who told you to stand motionless at my door like a ghost?!"
Xu Qing swallowed awkwardly and said confidently.
"I was going to find Feng Shuai. There's a power outage. I'm going to ask about the situation!"
Yao Yongkang explained with a grimace.
At the same time, the door of the next room also opened, and Lu Zhengming walked out of the room in the dark.
"The power is out?!"
Xu Qing was stunned for a moment and looked at the dark room behind Lu Zhengming in surprise.
"Listen, I saw the lights in other directions in the city also went out!"
Lu Zhengming raised his hand to block the bright light of Xu Qing's flashlight, nodded and said.
Xu Qing was stunned for a moment and hurriedly walked towards Duan Mufeng's room.
In front of a window in the corridor on the second floor, Tang Jun and Wu Jun stood side by side, looking at the endless darkness outside, each frowning.
"Feng Shuai said everything right."
Tang Jun hesitated and said slowly.
"Ah, I don't know what will happen next..."
Wu Jun nodded and said something equally solemn.
As the two people with the largest number except Duanmu Feng, within one minute after the power outage, everyone had been comforted through the intercom.
In Duan Mufeng's room on the top floor, Duan Mufeng stood quietly in front of the window, holding a glass of red wine in his hand, listening to the constant knocking on the door, remaining indifferent.
"Feng Shuai?! Are you there?!"
Xu Qing's voice kept coming from outside the door, with a hint of uncontrollable panic.
Duan Mufeng ignored it and stared silently into the distance. In his sight, he could clearly see the buildings and streets a hundred meters away, and even wandered around on the streets. Also because of the sudden arrival of Boundless A dark and confused mutant.
His eyesight is far better than ordinary people!
He was the Lord of Darkness!
Now, he was going through this dark cycle again, and a familiar feeling gradually emerged in his mind.
It seems that the past, those brothers who shared life and death, are getting closer and closer.
At this point, eternal night has completely fallen, and an unknown adventure begins again.
After a brief hesitation, Duan Mufeng calmly raised his glass and took a sip of red wine. He took out his mobile phone and took a look at the time from the moment of the power outage to now. There was no trace of panic on his face.
The knocking on the door was still there. In addition to Xu Qing's voice, he also heard Yao Yongkang's slightly crying cry.
However, he didn't plan to open the door now. He wanted to wait until the phone call came, so as not to answer their endless questions.
"Reporting to Feng Shuai, there is a large-scale power outage in the whole city. Will there be any problems at the geothermal energy space station?"
At this time, Tang Jun's soft inquiry came from the intercom.
"Don't worry, it will start in ten minutes."
"Everyone, please don't be nervous and take precautions. Once our place becomes the only bright place in the city, we will definitely attract a large number of mutants and mutant beasts."
Duanmu Feng said calmly, without any fluctuation in his tone.
"yes!"
Tang Jun respectfully agreed and immediately ended the call.
Ten minutes later, as Duan Mufeng said, the safe house building that had been plunged into darkness gradually restored power, and the extinguished lights came back on!
In such a huge city, there is only one light, the safe house! It seems to have suddenly become a lighthouse, guiding the wanderers who are lost and don’t know their hometown.
"Huh? There's a call!"
"The call is coming!"
In the corridor on the top floor, in the duty room on the first floor, and in the dormitory on the second floor, happy discussions came almost simultaneously.
The fear and depression of losing the light disappeared in an instant.
Immediately afterwards, Duan Mufeng put down his wine glass, walked to the door, and slowly opened the door.
Several people who were celebrating happily in the corridor heard the door open, turned around and found Duan Mufeng with an expressionless face.
"Feng Shuai? I thought you weren't here just now."
Xu Qing hesitated for a moment and said slowly.
"Eternal night has completely fallen. There is nothing to be happy about. It is better to save more energy and prepare for the next crisis."
Duan Mufeng looked at the people outside the door and said lightly.
Without light, no one can survive in the darkness forever, but with light, it is destined to lead to killing here.
In the last days, light sometimes represents death.
After hearing Duan Mufeng's words, several people in the corridor became quiet. Then they looked through the gap between Duan Mufeng and the door frame and found that there was still boundless darkness elsewhere outside the window. They couldn't help but feel nervous and changed. Change of face...
