Chapter 66: Early morning


   "I found something." Shang Jianyao took the long white hair and walked quickly back to the living room area.
   In order to let Qiao Chu and Jiang Baimian see them clearly, he turned the flashlight and shot it into his hand.
   The yellow beam of light diverged slightly, Yingde Shang Jian Yao's face was so gloomy, and Long Yuehong almost jumped up and shot him.
   "Look at my hand." Shang Jianyao seemed to have expected Long Yuehong's reaction a long time ago, but only then did he add a sentence.
   Long Yuehong breathed out slowly, moved his eyes, and looked over.
  In the yellowish beam of light, fine dust flew, and white hair shook gently.
   "Where did you find it?" Jiang Baimian asked.
   Shang Jian Yao pointed to the wall on which the LCD screen was hung:
   "On the pillow in this bedroom."
   "Only one?" Jiang Baimian asked.
   "In theory, this is the case, unless it can swallow its companions and evolve itself." Shang Jianyao replied seriously.
   "Do you learn this kind of thing in basic courses now?" Jiang Baimian said casually, seeming to be distracted by various possibilities.
   Bai Chen listened quietly and pulled the old scarf around his neck and said:
   "Left from the destruction of the old world?"
   Hair is not so easy to rot in a similar environment.
"It doesn't make sense only to leave this one." Jiang Baimian said his doubts, "And, don't we have a preliminary judgment? This city will be regularly'maintained' to a certain degree. This room Some internal conditions also confirm this. Just like just now, we found traces of rat activities in the restaurant and kitchen, but they left nothing except bites and scratches."
   "The more you hear it, the more terrifying..." Long Yuehong couldn't help muttering.
   A long-dead city is still cleaning up debris regularly to "maintain" itself!
   Without knowing the reason, this is even scarier than the ghost story in the radio show!
   "The mice may have been eaten by the ‘unintentional’ who are active here, and they also need food." Bai Chen said his guess.
   Jiang Baimian gave a "um":
   "It is possible. But will the ‘unintentional’ help the rats clean up? They only have survival instinct."
   "Why is this impossible? Don't they all still sing?" Shang Jianyao turned off the flashlight in his hand and said seriously.
"..." Jiang Baimian gave him a white look, "Do you care about the roaring and singing? Besides, even if they still have a certain instinct to clean up the environment, although I haven't seen it in'unintentional people' elsewhere, But let them have it first. In short, they should also be
maintaining
frequently, not after a long period of time. After all, they do not have too much thinking ability and only act according to instinct."
   Judging from the conditions of the streets, buildings and rooms, it has not been maintained for a long time.
  Shang Jian Yao strives for "reason":
   "Humans have the instinct to be lazy.
   "How often do you clean the room?"
   Jiang Baimian was speechless for a while, glanced at Qiao Chu and said:
   "I am more casual when performing tasks in the wilderness. This is a manifestation of gregariousness.
   "When I was at the company, I would clean it every day if I cooked it myself, more than once, if I ate the cafeteria, it would be cleaned once every three days and once a month."
   Since their discussion, Qiao Chu, who has not spoken, suddenly asked:
   "Are you'Pangu Bio', or'United Industries','Orange' company, or'Future Intelligence'?"
   "We are from Pangu." Jiang Baimian replied truthfully.
   Qiao Chu touched the silver rifle lying on his knees and nodded slightly:
   "There is no need to discuss that hair, this is not a big deal.
   "Eat, rest, wait for the early morning."
   "Okay." Shang Jianyao and others gave up the discussion, and each found a seat and sat down, eating compressed biscuits and energy bars with the purified water in the water bag.
   After filling his stomach, Jiang Baimian stood up, walked to the window of the restaurant area, and looked at the weedy lawn below.
   She was going to tell her needs directly, but after a glance at Qiao Chu, she became a little embarrassed:
   "I, go down, make it easier."
   "The toilet here can be solved directly." Shang Jianyao was eager to try, and seemed to want to share the method he found with his companions.
   "No need...it will affect the rest." Jiang Baimian declined his kindness.
   sat on the chair, as if he was closing his eyes and meditating, Qiao Chu opened his eyes and said:
   "You can go to the corner of 601."
   Jiang Baimian instinctively shook his head:
  "It’s better to be careful in such weird places.
   "If the heavier smell is not buried and is close to itself, it is likely to cause unnecessary trouble."
   "It doesn't matter." Qiao Chu insisted on his opinion.
   Jiang Baimian did not want to refute, so he chose to obey.
   Bai Chen followed and stood up:
"I will go with you."
   "Just help each other out." Jiang Baimian nodded slightly and smiled, "Even if you don't want to go, I have to take you."
  Long Yuehong clamped his thigh and looked at Shang Jian Yao and said:
   "Waiting to go together?"
   "Okay." Shang Jianyao responded with a bit of regret, "Since Qiao Chu said it's okay, we can make it easier. For example, stand on the railing, open the window, and face the outside directly..."
   "Stop!" Long Yuehong prevented his jumping thinking, or sudden whims.
   After such an episode, Long Yuehong and Bai Chen each took up one end of the sofa, curled up, preparing to rest, Qiao Chu still sat on that chair with his eyes closed, wondering whether he was resting his mind or was asleep.
Shang Jianyao sat cross-legged on the railing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking at the direction of the tunnel, monitoring the movement in the dark city, Jiang Baimian did not have a grenade gun, holding a "ice moss" pistol, walking back and forth in the living room, always paying attention Are there any abnormalities in the sleeping person?
   A few minutes later, a scream full of fear rang somewhere in the city.
   In this very quiet night, among the ruins of the dead forest-like city, the screams spread far, making Long Yuehong, who was not asleep, his scalp numb and trembling.
   Immediately afterwards, there was a burst of gunfire.
   bang bang bang bang, this series of movements are like firecrackers, quickly burned out and returned to silence.
   After a while, Shang Jian Yao, through the faint starlight, saw a figure popping out from a nearby alley.
   The figure crouched, acting more like apes than humans.
   He was wearing some clothes and tied some cloth in a mess, and quickly approached the building where Shang Jianyao and others were.
   Then, he ran to the other side along the side of the street full of yellow and fallen leaves, and from time to time he climbed skillfully to a high place, and then jumped off lightly.
   Seeing such a scene, Shang Jianyao feels that even if he has done genetic improvement and received systematic training, it is difficult to complete similar actions. After all, the main direction of improvement is not here.
   At this time, the high-altitude clouds moved, and the moonlight leaked a little, so that Shang Jian Yao could barely see the appearance of the figure.
   This is supposed to be a male, with many black hairs, messy and dirty, but not too long, not even his shoulders.
   seemed to notice Shang Jianyao's gaze, and the figure suddenly turned his head and looked upstairs.
   A blank face suddenly appeared in Shang Jian Yao's eyes.
   "the unintentional".
   This is a "unintentional person", a "unintentional person" in the prime of life.
   Shang Jian Yao didn't dodge, his eyes were open, and the "unintentional" was at a long distance, quietly looking at each other.
   Finally, the "worried man" withdrew his gaze, continued to march towards the shadow of the tall building in the distance, and disappeared there.
   Shang Jian Yao's face gradually showed a smile, as if he had won some decisive victory~EbookFREE.me~ Suddenly, he saw another figure.
   This figure is also squatting, and the speed is much slower than the "unintentional" just now.
   Shang Jian Yao glanced, saw a wrinkled, shriveled face and a mess of long white hair.
   The figure flashed past and went into the alley on the left-this was the blind spot of Shang Jianyao's vision.
   In the next two hours, Shang Jianyao saw several "unintentional people" again. Jiang Baimian also noticed this, and expressed doubts about the number of "unintentional" here.
After   , Bai Chen and Long Yuehong woke up and took over their duties.
   When Shang Jian Yao was awakened by Long Yuehong from his dream, Qiao Chu had already left the chair and stood in front of the French window.
   "It's almost early morning." Qiao Chu said calmly.
   He soon withdrew his gaze from the dark ruins of the city, his eyes were indifferent, and his voice gently commanded:
   "Help me put on the exoskeleton device."
   After a short while, with the help of Jiang Baimian and Bai Chen, he put on the military exoskeleton device and activated the system.
   After taking the silver rifle, Qiao Chu, whose body was covered with a black metal skeleton, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and pointed to a building a few blocks away:
   "Our destination is there."
   Shang Jian Yao and the others looked in the direction he pointed and saw a building that was not short of distance from all the surrounding buildings.
   It seems that there is a large courtyard attached to it.
   At this moment, it is standing quietly in the dark city ruins, without any light from inside, as if it had already died.
   A few seconds later, Qiao Chu turned his body, walked towards the door, and said in a deep voice:
"set off!"
