The Sabbath

Five days to the last known date of the city's existence—

The strong nutrient solution can be completely made in three days. At that time, as long as they put Ronggui's body into the strong nutrient solution immediately, the next recovery time will depend on the condition of the individual's body and the effect of the strong nutrient solution.

Hana's body is very good, but the child is still clumsy. Xiaomei taught her the simplest method of making sunlight, and taught her in great detail many times, but the little guy couldn't learn it at all, even——

Self-taught, she actually used the materials and methods used to make sunlight to make insecticides!

It's like this: Didn't Xiaomei teach her how to make sunlight?There were frequent mistakes in the process, and the color and texture of the potion was completely wrong. It was a failure to the naked eye. After all, the little girl was not willing to throw it away, so she used the heliotropin she made each time as food for the bugs she raised.

That's right, those bugs she caught in her yard earlier!I don’t think bugs are disgusting at all. The little girl raised them all and fed herb residue every day. Under Hana’s care, these bugs thrived. From the beginning, they could only live in small jars. Now, they can only One worm lives in a glass tank!

Could it be that these bugs were used to massacre the city? Xiaomei didn't say a word as she watched these bugs grow bigger and bigger.

It wasn't until the little girl started making sunlight, and she ate the potion that the little girl failed to make every day. It was fine a few days ago, and finally, the little girl threw the failed product that she thought was the closest to the successful product into the insect nest...

All the bugs are dead.

Ronggui was overjoyed.

The little girl was sad for a while, but soon Ronggui comforted her:

"Isn't Mrs. Chuzhuola growing there too? She's been worrying about it recently! You hurry up and make some more of this medicine and sprinkle it in her yard, maybe the problem will be solved~"

really--

When Mrs. Zora's troubles were mentioned, the little girl immediately stopped being sad and wiped away her tears. She went back to the studio to make daylight... no, it was pesticides.

Another possible speculative method of massacring the city was obliterated by the person involved—looking at Hana who was standing on the ground with her and earnestly making... insecticides, Xiaomei thought quietly.

"I'm going to the library." The ingredients that need to be extracted today have been successfully extracted, Xiaomei carefully put them into a test tube, and put them in the storage bin on her chest, he said to Ronggui.

He instinctively spoke to Ronggui, but unfortunately when he looked up, he realized that Ronggui was not in the studio at all ← he didn't know where this guy had gone.

But although Ronggui was not there, Hana heard what Xiaomei said.

"Yeah, let's go, Xiaomei! Slow down on the road and be careful." Imitating what Ronggui would tell Xiaomei every time after hearing Xiaomei say this, the little girl waved her small hand at Xiaomei, and finally said sweetly:

"Goodbye, Xiaomei~"

Being taken by Ronggui every day, the little girl has learned to be cute!

God knows, the former Hana entered the rebellious period a little early, a cool little loli~

Xiaomei: ...

"Goodbye." Saying goodbye flatly, Xiaomei turned and left.

He still took an ambulance taxi to the library. After asking about Xiaomei's plan to go to the library to read every day, Ronggui immediately contacted Dongchun, who was driving the ambulance, through Yani. It is a win-win job to pick up and drop off Xiaomei to and from the library during the fixed time period. Dongchun gave Ronggui a discount, and he is very satisfied.

After all, for this young man, it is hard to find such a job that can take care of his personal affairs to be able to come and see Hana every day, as well as the old buddy he used to work with!

But thanks to Ronggui's move, the other ambulance drivers in Sisiro City finally don't have to face the walking scary atmosphere maker, Xiaomei!

It really is a win-win~

"Good morning Xiaomei~" Seeing Xiaomei waiting at the door on time, Dongchun greeted him with a smile.

Dongchun is also a beauty, with short hair, a full forehead and two neat eyebrows. She is a person who makes people feel good about her.

It's a pity that Xiaomei is not included.

= - =

"Good morning." Greeting Dongchun expressionlessly, Xiaomei opened the car door and looked for her usual seat.

But when he entered the car door, he froze.

"You don't need to look for it. Agui took back the previous cushion yesterday. He said he wanted to be careful. Did you see the new cushion? That's the new cushion he gave you yesterday. You can sit wherever you want."

So Xiaomei obediently sat on the new cushion.

Dongchun looked at Xiaomei through the rear mirror, and saw the little robot sitting on the new cushion with no expression on his face but very upright, Dongchun was secretly happy.

The so-called cushion was brought by Ronggui at the beginning.

"In the future, when Xiaomei comes over, let him spread the mat by himself and sit here. It's not that you dislike your dirty car~ It's actually raining a lot in Sisiro, and the seats of the car are often wet when guests get in the car. Instead of letting you It’s better to let Xiaomei use this instead of rubbing it specially for Xiaomei every time.”

Seeing the way the little robot was serious about telling him, Dongchun, who was not yet familiar with Ronggui at that time, smiled and agreed.

It's obviously a robot, so it's not afraid of water at all, isn't it?

but--

The waterproof cushion alone was fine, but when he found out that Xiaomei could still pull out an umbrella after getting off the car, Dongchun was completely dumbfounded.

In fact, not only umbrellas, Xiaomei also has raincoats~ even rain boots!

Looking at Xiaomei who has everything in the back seat prepared and arranged for him, and thinking about himself who has no raincoat, rain boots, and a hole in the umbrella and no one to mend it...

Hey~

I really want to fall in love~

Sighing, Dongchun's hand was steady, taking a shortcut along the way, he quickly sent Xiaomei to the destination.

When getting off the car, the little robot folded the cushion neatly and stuffed it under the car seat.

Smiling and watching the other party skillfully open the umbrella and put it in place, Dongchun said: "Then, as usual, I will pick you up in the old time and place!"

It was the little robot who answered his chin slightly twice.

Most of the plants in the city have entered a vigorous growth period, which requires a lot of water, so the city has entered the rainy season.

Holding an umbrella and wearing rain boots, Xiaomei walked straight to the familiar door of the library.

However, today, when he put the umbrella in the umbrella place, he didn't see the black umbrella.

That black umbrella is the librarian's umbrella.

Every time I come to read a book, there is always an umbrella here, and now no one patronizes here, only the librarian will come here every day with an umbrella.

But today, the umbrella is not there?

Putting the umbrella away, Xiaomei walked straight towards the reading room.

Finally, when he walked to the familiar entrance of the five-story library, he saw the old man again at the librarian's seat where he must pass every day.

however--

No longer rosy, pale face, dilated pupils, numb expression...

The opponent is already an undead person.

"At my age, I might die at some point, so don't worry if one day you find that I haven't come to the library, maybe I'll be sent to a pharmacy for first aid~" When leaving yesterday, the old man still told me He was joking, but—

Today, he is already a dead person.

The old man who had become an undead man was wet all over his body, except his hands were dry. He was sitting on his original seat, and he even put on his glasses. He was holding the book he had read three quarters of yesterday. , he was reading a book with a stiff posture.

"Good morning." Xiaomei said hello to the old man softly.

This time, the old man did not answer him.

Xiaomei walked away from him.

Flipping through the bookshelf for the book she wanted to read today, Xiaomei sat in her usual seat.

As time went by, the undead in the library gradually gathered... gathered... more and more.

Finally, Xiaomei became the only living person here.

however……

however--

Does the existence of machines really mean the existence of life?

Looking at the undead people around who completely regarded him as his kind and ignored him, a shallow but huge question mark appeared in Xiaomei's heart.

There are still books left on the last shelf, and he will be able to input all the books in this library into his brain in four days.

The powerful nutrient solution that he came to this city before was about to be completed, and his reason for staying in this city seemed to be completely gone.

but--

A rare emotion that might be called "restlessness" appeared in his heart, but Xiaomei's reading speed did not slow down at all. Just when he was about to finish reading the last book as planned, he received a call from Ronggui .

"Xiaomei, Xiaomei, Xiaomei! Something big has happened!" Once connected, he repeated his name three times.

"Talk slowly." With a blank face, Xiaomei put down the book in her hand.

"Today, the detection level at the gate of the city has suddenly increased! All the zombies were escorted out. I heard that this time they will be buried in a forced way, so that they can no longer crawl out of the ground! All the cars in front are being interrogated , it will be our turn in a while!" There were as many modal particles and exclamation marks as before, but fortunately, Ronggui spoke fast enough and understood what he said.

"Xiaomei, what should I do next?" Ronggui finally revealed the purpose of this call.

"Don't send him out of the city, turn around and come back immediately." Xiaomei said immediately.

"Okay! Rhubarb turn around, let's go back to Hana's house!" Ronggui immediately ordered Rhubarb to change course without any doubt about Xiaomei's decision.

Looking down at the current page number of the book in her hand, Xiaomei didn't put the book back to its original place for the first time.

Putting all the books on the table, he called Dongchun in advance for the first time as he walked out.

"Do you have time now? I need to go back to Hana's shop immediately."

"If you have time, wait for me at the usual place." Dongchun was also a cheerful person, and it was rare for him to receive a call from Xiaomei. He immediately put down the guests who were about to board the car, and then hurried towards the library.

Today he went to pick up the job at the gate of the city. At that time, he already felt that something was wrong. When such an abnormal call from Xiaomei suddenly came, he immediately followed his instinct and drove towards Xiaomei.

Just when his car stopped opposite the library and saw Xiaomei walking from the opposite side, he also saw another acquaintance at the same time——

"Qilu?" Because the distance is not too far, he greeted loudly.

Qilu is the city security administrator. In normal times, this would be to manage the security in the city, check whether the signboards of each house meet the requirements, patrol the city by the way, and deal with medical troubles... It's quite easy. , but I also said that this is normal, before the appearance of the undead. After the appearance of the undead, the work pressure of the entire department increased greatly, and the department expanded its enrollment. It was at this time that Qilu entered this department, chasing zombies every day Running, digging pits and burying corpses every day, Qilu is now a small expert in burying corpses.

While greeting Qilu, Dongchun hurriedly waved to Xiaomei to signal that he was here.

Qilu noticed him together with Xiaomei.

After saying hello to the colleague next to him, Qilu trotted over.

"Why are you two here?" He frowned and asked in a low voice.

"I'll pick up Xiaomei. Xiaomei is reading in the library." Dongchun replied bluntly.

Chirrut shook his head.

Lowering his voice, he whispered, "Today, Dongchun, don't pull people outside, and Xiaomei, don't come to the library any more."

His attitude was too mysterious, and Dongchun couldn't help asking him in a low voice: "What's the matter? So mysterious?"

Looking around and noticing that no one was paying attention, Chilu said in a softer voice, "I was just trying to inform you. You just happen to be here right now, so I might as well tell you about it first."

"Maybe the city will be closed."

"Ah?!" Dongchun was taken aback.

This is a normal person's reaction, but when he came to Xiaomei, the little robot's silver-white face still showed no expression, but in his heart, a feeling of "it really is so" suddenly emerged.

"Didn't the undead man in Mrs. Zora's house attack someone a few days ago?"

"However, that person didn't die in the end, but a lot of organs were broken, and they had to go to Yedehan to buy new ones. Their family has already left the city."

"Now that I think about it, he is really lucky. Someone was attacked by undead people last night. A total of four people were attacked, but this time is different from last time. The wounds of these people will not heal at all. This morning..."

Qilu pursed his lips, his face showing a bit of bewilderment: "This morning, out of these four people, two of them suddenly became undead."

"Moreover, according to one of the family members of the undead, they are sure that their relatives have never taken the medicine of elixir."

"Hey?!" Before Dongchun could react, the next second, Qilu knocked him.

"What does this mean? This means that the undead have evolved! Not only will they start attacking ordinary people, but they will also be infected!"

"At this time, this is no longer an ordinary medical malpractice, but a terrible epidemic!"

Chirrut snapped!

Dongchun was stunned.

Qilu pursed his lips, then pinched his brows away to make himself look less tense, and then continued to whisper: "Anyway, don't go out today, it's not safe outside now, and I haven't checked it out yet. Who are the undead who attacked ordinary people? Today we are going to arrest all the undead in the city. It is not clear how the higher authorities will deal with them. Anyway..."

"Mrs. Hana, I will look into it. Mr. Hana... If you can, don't let Hana send her father out of the city, but you must hide him well. We will definitely investigate today."

That's all Chirrut said.

Watching Qilu quickly return to the team, Dongchun let Xiaomei get into the car, and the two quickly drove back to Hana's shop.

When he learned that Mr. Hana had not been sent away, Dongchun was obviously relieved, but soon, he became a little worried again.

Where to hide him?

Finally, Ronggui came up with an idea:

"Bury it in the yard! As long as the graves are not piled up, it will be fine."

The authorities are obsessed, if a living person is buried in the soil, they are worried that he will suffocate to death. If there is no dead person, what are you afraid of!

So several people decisively started digging holes in the yard.

This job is very familiar~ He volunteered to become the main force.Although the bystanders were a little surprised at Ronggui's skillful digging skills, no one bothered to ask the reason at this time. After the deep pit was dug, they immediately helped Hana's father in, filled the pit, and buried it.

It took half an hour to finish all the hiding work.

And not long after they hid Papa Hana, Qilu and his colleagues came over.

They searched all over the room and places in front of them, but after finding no undead, they left.

At this point, the alarm is lifted.

"It looks like I should be fine. Well, I have to go home. I haven't come home so late. I'm afraid my mother will be worried." Looking around, Dongchun felt that the matter had been dealt with almost, and left in a hurry.

Ronggui took Hana to say goodbye to him.

And Xiaomei...

Standing on the new soil where Hana's father was buried in the yard, he felt an ominous feeling in his heart.

After seeking Mrs. Zora's consent, they dug out Hana's father after Chiru left, and took the dull Mr. Hana with them, and they drove to Mrs. Zora's house.

When the curtains are drawn down, people outside can't see what's going on inside at all, and for people in the car, they can still see the outside through the front window without feeling stuffy.

Of course, a special coating is used on the front window of the car, and people outside can't see the inside either.

Everything was normal at the beginning, but when Da Huang drove through an alley, Hana's father's reaction suddenly went wrong.

This usually quiet zombie with glasses suddenly hammered on the car window desperately!

"Oh?!" Hana was taken aback, but she has experienced many things during this period, the little girl is no longer as scared as before, she tightly held on to her father's hand, and the little girl was full of question marks.

"Ah! That's right! This is the place where Dad used to come to buy medicinal materials. Is it possible that Dad wants to buy medicinal materials?" Every pharmacist has their usual herbal medicine purchase point, and Hana's father is no exception. Hana finally thought Get up where is this.

"But Mrs. Zora has a lot of herbal medicines, Dad, be good~ Buying Mrs. Zora's herbs is the same!" The little girl tried her best to comfort her father, seeing that Mr. Hana's reaction seemed to be really weak, Xiaomei ordered Rhubarb to continue Moving forward, they left this place quickly.

However, he remembered the alley after all, the only unusual reaction with Hana's father in a few days.
