Su Qiqi reached out and took the piece of paper handed over by Huang Qishan. It was her mother's Juanxiu handwriting on it:
Seventy-seven.
I'm glad that you can survive this crisis. If you can see this message, it means that you have awakened your superpower, and your superpower ability can already allow you to explore Hangzhou. Mom is happy for you.
You must have seen the notes on my wall. Mom can only tell you that some things have been decided since birth.
Just like me, just like you.
Okay, I can’t say much else. Mom is setting off.
I'm fine. Don't look for me. I'll come to you after a while after I finish my own business.
Love you mom :)
Su Qiqi's hand holding the message couldn't stop shaking. Excited tears ran down her cheeks drop by drop and fell on the piece of paper in her hand. Some of the tears blurred the words on it into a gray shadow.
Su Qiqi carefully placed the message on the table, raised her arm and pressed it with her sleeves to wipe away the tears on the paper.
Although I don’t know what my mother is doing, she is not dead. As long as she is not dead, that’s fine...
"Sister Su... don't worry. Your mother doesn't look like an ordinary person. She may have a better life than us!" Huang Qishan had never seen Su Qiqi like this before. He walked to Su Qiqi and comforted her.
Su Qiqi nodded, carefully folded the message and put it into the inner pocket of her down jacket.
"Pack up the things here and let's take them away." Su Qiqi said as she took down the notes nailed to the wall and laid them flat on the table.
Everyone collected notes together, and within a few minutes all the papers in the room were collected.
When everyone was about to leave, very light footsteps came from the door. If they hadn't all awakened their powers, they might not have heard such a subtle sound.
Su Qiqi and Yang Lulu looked at each other almost at the same time. Under Yang Lulu's eyes, Su Qiqi summoned the flame and walked towards the door step by step against the wall.
After they entered, they closed the door to prevent monsters from suddenly attacking.
Before Su Qiqi reached the door, the sound of a key being inserted into the door was heard, followed by the sound of the lock cylinder being turned.
Something is opening the door!
Is it the mother?
Su Qiqi stared at the door closely, but felt that it couldn't be her mother, so who was opening the door? Why do you have the keys to their house?
With a creak, the door opened.
Su Qiqi held the flame in her palm, ready to throw it out.
Yang Lulu was holding an icicle. Huang Qishan had already used his dark power and disappeared. Some black powder could be vaguely seen floating in the air near the door.
Li Yi was behind Su Qiqi, already holding an ax in both hands, as if he was about to swing the ax in the next second.
As a therapist, Chang Duoer stared nervously from a distance.
The thing at the door stepped into the room, and was startled by the fireballs, icicles, and axes coming towards her. There was actually a knife drawn from the void and coming towards her.
The thing took two steps back and almost fell down in the corridor. It didn't dare to look into the room until it saw that all the attacks had stopped. It couldn't move its eyes away when it saw Su Qiqi.
"Girl of the Su family, why are you here? How did you come back?" A hoarse female voice in her fifties came from the door. The person who opened the door was Aunt Yu, the neighbor on the third floor.
"Aunt Yu?" Su Qiqi looked at Yu Fangyan in surprise, why did she have the key to their house? And how did she survive in Hangzhou?
"Is it really you? Is this... your friend?" Yu Fangyan glanced at everyone in the room, and finally looked at Su Qiqi who was at the door and asked.
Su Qiqi nodded and asked doubtfully: "Aunt Yu, how come you have the key to my house?"
Yu Fangyan smiled kindly, patted the arm of Su Qiqi, who was a head taller than her, and explained: "At that time, when we changed properties in our community, it was not the property selection committee. I was the representative of our community property committee, and the property committee There will be spare keys for all the houses in the community.”
Change property? Property owners committee? Why does the property owners committee still have spare keys?
Su Qiqi frowned. She had no memory of this part at all. Maybe it was because she was in school at the time and her mother didn't tell her about such trivial matters in life.
"It's normal if you don't remember. You were in your third year of high school at the time. Your mother was nervous about you. She stewed ribs for you every day for fear that you wouldn't be able to keep up with your nutrition." Yu Fangyan still looked so amiable, but Su Qiqi always felt that Something is wrong.
The familiar neighbor in front of her narrowed her eyes slightly because of her smile. Since she went to college, she has hardly been home except during winter and summer vacations. The neighbors in their building do not have close communication and they only see each other a few times a year.
Aunt Yu actually looks exactly the same as she did when she was in high school, that is, three years ago. The past few years have not left any trace on her face.
This is very strange. Even if you took good care of yourself before, during the last days, you will age a lot instantly due to mental and food problems.
She hasn't changed at all, and this isn't in some base. But in Hang City! A place where, according to official announcements, almost no one survives inside the city!
"Really? I was busy taking college entrance exams at the time, so I might not have paid attention." Su Qiqi rubbed her hands like she did before the apocalypse, and smiled shyly.
"Qiqi, you are also promising, and you actually got into such a good university. Our building is the best university you went to." Seeing Su Qiqi's performance, Yu Fangyan's eyes lit up, and she was so affectionate. Su Qiqi clapped her hands.
Yang Lulu who was on the side felt that this scene was very strange.
If this was before the end of the world, this situation would be considered normal. But this is in the apocalypse where monsters are rampant. How can you suddenly meet an acquaintance and be so calm and calm.
"Auntie, where is your son Yuanhong? Is there anyone else alive in our building?" Su Qiqi asked as if she was concerned, then inadvertently withdrew her hand and took a step back.
This Aunt Yu's hands are cold, not the hands of a living person! She is already a monster, a monster who retains the memories and appearance of her life!
"Yuanhong?" Aunt Yu sighed in frustration, lowered her head and said, "He is disobedient. I told you that I would take him out of here in a few days. But he ran away and left I."
That 'Aunt Yu' became more and more excited as she spoke. She suddenly raised her head and her face wrinkled up in a ferocious manner.
"I chased him back, and not only did he not appreciate me, but he called me a monster?" 'Aunt Yu' snorted, pinned her hair back and continued, "I just want the neighbors in the building to stop suffering. , why did he say that I am the same as those ugly monsters outside?",
Su Qiqi slowly backed away, and the corners of her mouth were widening, almost reaching her ears.
"So, I made him become like me, but he was unlucky as always. Hongyuan actually lost his mind."
'Aunt Yu' giggled happily, then seemed to think of something, tilted her head and asked Su Qiqi, who was getting farther and farther away from her: "But, where is your mother? Your mother is the only one in this building who has not been freed." She was there a few days ago, but when I went to look for her later, she disappeared out of thin air."
