It’s 10 o’clock in the middle of the night, Longmen Outer Ring Station, misty and windless.
A bus pulled over with double flashes, and a passenger rolled and crawled out of the front door, followed by a big orange cat and a dozing little girl.
Huaihu crossed his arms and asked nonchalantly: "Are you so timid? How can such a big man be so scared?"
Zhou Jinru's face turned pale, and he did not dare to recall what happened in the car. He shouted at the top of his voice: "Not everyone can be indifferent to those things, prosperity, democracy, civilization, harmony..."
"What are you mumbling about?"
"Nothing to do with you!"
Zhou Jinru leaned against the station, gasping for air. The cold air entered his lungs and almost choked him.
It took a long time to recover, and he looked in the direction he came from with a complicated expression: "Do so many people die every day in the outer ring?"
Huaihu was already used to it: "No, only some old and frail old people can't survive the winter."
Zhou Jinru shook his head and said: "Today's situation is different. I saw the souls of many young and middle-aged people. I didn't expect that his bus was actually delivering these things. If you had told me this earlier, I would have preferred to wait a few more days."
"Maybe there was an accident somewhere. I don't know, a boiler explosion or a mechanical accident. These may cause a large number of casualties. These things are very common in the outer ring."
Zhou Jinru uncharacteristically did not refute Huaihu's commonplace. In his eyes, Longmen urban area and Longmen outer ring are two different worlds. The urban area symbolizes wealth, civilization, and freedom, but in the outer ring, poverty, barbarism, The absurd becomes commonplace.
deformity.
He couldn't think of a better word to describe it.
"Our car is here. Have you had enough rest? Let's go."
A car light hit the three people. The Rat King had arranged everything in advance and would send them to the city.
Zhou Jinru said oh, and then he realized that Snake Butcher Box had fallen asleep leaning against him.
Huaihu carried the girl into the car and pulled on the seat belt. Huaihu looked at this scene thoughtfully and murmured: "I now kind of believe that you are the doctor that Atu said. She has never slept so peacefully. It turns out that you He is really such a scumbag, abandoning such a lovely girl and running away."
"Misunderstanding, everything is a misunderstanding. I admit that it is irresponsible, but it is not that serious. If Xiangxiang had always been in Rhode Island, he would not be living on the streets like Da Li said."
Huaihu was sitting in the passenger seat and said while pulling on the seat belt: "She wanted to find you, so she got lost and couldn't go back. But she is very capable and no one can bully her."
Zhou Jinru's expression changed: "Have you ever practiced?"
"No, you are thinking too much." Huai Hu turned his face sideways.
She still doesn't want to remember the nightmare of that day. She has never seen such a hard turtle shell and a defense that can't be broken no matter how hard it is hit. If judging from the level of training, Atu is at least level 40, which is terrible.
Looking at Huaihu's look, Zhou Jinru knew that he had guessed it, and couldn't help but said proudly: "Xianxiang is my right-hand man, the strongest physical defense and heavy equipment."
All the resources invested at the beginning were worth it. The snake slaughter box of the second master has a defense that surpasses other heavy-armed operators. When using skills, it can self-regenerate blood and increase the number of blocks. She can be polished even if hit with a sledgehammer.
"This can't cover up your evil deeds." Huaihu dismissed it, "You actually let such a young girl go to the battlefield. She should be learning knowledge in school."
The car started and was speeding along a highway. Zhou Jinru looked out the window, it was gray and couldn't see anything clearly.
"Huaihu, you thought wrong this time. You live in Longmen and have never been to other places. The outside world is not as peaceful as Longmen, and it is even much worse than the environment in the outer ring. I have been to the infected community, They can only live in simple shacks surrounded by wooden boards with ventilation on all sides and rely on community relief. At the same time, they have to face natural disasters that can strike at any time. They don’t have a mobile city.”
Gently patting the back of the snake butcher's hand, Zhou Jinru looked at the little girl leaning on his shoulder: "Do you know she is an infected person? You probably don't know. Now that you know, will you still have the same thoughts as before? This child They need to receive treatment. We in Rhode Island have complete medical measures to suppress the spread of Originium Disease as much as possible. At the same time, it is normal for patients who have been treated to do what they can for the hospital."
"Our operators are paid every month, and the operators who go into battle also receive additional allowances. If they are infected, most of their medical expenses will be waived, and they will even receive free treatment. They can go on vacation to any city in any country. "
"Really?" Huaihu was a little shaken.
"of course not."
Zhou Jinru ruthlessly broke her fantasy: "The battlefield is not just playing house, let alone playing competitive games. People will die on the battlefield. What I can do is to keep everyone alive."
Can I really do it?
Zhou Jinru suddenly paused. He didn't know if he could do this without the game mechanism. In the game, after the health bar is drained, the operator retreats instead of dying. Like Fire Emblem, he cannot play after dying once. You can't even think about that kind of thing, because the angry players will directly blow up the developer's office building.
Huaihu fell silent after being insulted by him. She didn't notice anything strange about Zhou Jinru. She looked at her hands and said, "Then, I apologize to you. It's because I have a bias in my heart."
"fine."
Zhou Jinru shook his head and looked at the sleeping snake slaughter box. He thought that if the doctors of Rhode Island could not protect the operators who trusted him, they would really be in vain. He now needs to formulate some plans to use Rhode Island to The platform does something, even small changes are great.
Anyway, I can’t go back, and now I just want to protect you.
Looking down at the horizon, he has already absorbed the anger. The anger from Li Nan is too exaggerated. He has filled up the anger value by himself.
But before, there were so many souls on the bus, and only moments before arriving at the bus station could we collect all the dark blue sad round faces.
Could it be that the more powerful a person is, the stronger his emotions are?
Now only the emotion of surprise is left. Zhou Jinru has no idea about this. How can he collect the emotion of surprise? Another meaning of surprise is a sudden turning point in the development of things, a sudden change in the development of things, a sudden change in the future, and unexpected disasters. These are all turning points. Could it be that How many days is he going to stay at the gaming center in Longmen?
Suddenly, the car came to a sudden stop, and even the snake slaughtering box woke up and looked outside blankly.
Zhou Jinru couldn't laugh or cry as he watched the surprise gauge increase slightly. It turned out that this could also collect surprise emotions. He began to worry that his heart was not big enough...
Huaihu clenched his fists: "I will protect you."
"Don't be nervous," the driver said calmly, "The Guards Bureau is outside. They may be checking for drunk driving. We haven't drunk any alcohol. We will be released soon."
Zhou Jinru found someone knocking on his window. Through the glass covered with a layer of water vapor, he saw an expressionless face, but he actually recognized this face.
He has long dark blue hair tied into twin tails, a pair of crimson sharp horns, a handsome Guards Bureau uniform, and two knives, one long and one short, hanging on his waist.
Meeting an old friend in a foreign land, an acquaintance.
At this time, he heard an old friend standing in front of the car window pointing at him and shouting: "Catch this guy off the street. He is a big fish, such a big fish. We organized a surprise interrogation overnight."
Zhou Jinru: "?"
