doomsday seclusion

Zhuo's experience is quite sympathetic to say the least.

Although he didn't speak much, he only said a few sentences, but just based on a few key points, he can roughly piece together the whole story.

Before being sent to the research institute, he was a mercenary, and because of his mind-reading ability, he could always complete tasks very well.

Among all the teammates, except for the brother Lai Yu who has the best relationship, no one knows his secret.But Lai Yu once told him bluntly that he didn't like to be seen through his mind, so he compared his heart to his heart, and didn't use this ability at will except for tasks.

That's how it ended up.

"When Lai Yu gave me that bottle of medicine, he said that it could stimulate the activity of cells and repair the hidden wounds of the body. I should have paid more attention at that time." He said self-deprecatingly.

It's rare to trust a person so openly, but to be severely rewarded by reality.

This kind of feeling really makes people not want to aftertaste.

I can understand his feelings, but understanding belongs to understanding, but still no one likes to be read mind at any time.

"If you want to stay, you must restrain your abilities." I said, "You have read Fang Lei and Xiang Lvzhu's heart, you should know that they are good people, and they don't have any twisted thoughts in their hearts. Besides, We don't have any grievances or conflicts of interest with you, there is no need to sell you to get anything."

"..."

"Of course, if you want to leave, we also respect your opinion. However, if you can stay, we will all be very happy."

He was silent.

The van behind slowly approached.

"Mr. Su Ling." Xiang Lvzhu leaned out from the window of the passenger seat, and Fang Lei beside her was a bit bruised and swollen: "Where are you going to rest tonight?"

Needless to say, the home decoration store, in addition to the flashy furnishings, even the ventilation is not as good as that of a private house, and it will collapse there, just for the wish of the omnidirectional green bamboo.If you really want to stay, you still need to find a homestay or a general house.

After listening to Xiang Lvzhu, he suggested: "There are no houses in the city now, why don't we find a mansion with a swimming pool, although the water is no longer usable, but after it is drained, the empty swimming pool can still be used. Use it to burn zombies."

"A mansion is fine, but if you want to burn zombies, it's better to find another place." Although I don't mind sleeping next to the pile of corpses, the strong smell of decay is not for everyone.

I thought about it, and said, "The municipal swimming pool is a very good place."

Xiang Lvzhu seemed to have just remembered that Fang Lei was not like her, who spent several years in the apocalypse and couldn't care less about many things.

"Then it's an ordinary mansion."

"In that case, I know a good place." I started the car and drove forward.

***

The West District of Yuanshui City, I came here a long time ago when I was on a business trip.

At that time, I was in a bad mood, so I walked around after visiting the client, so I didn't say I had a deep memory of the surrounding scenery, but I also had a vague and general impression.

One of them is the Liulin District in Southwest China, known as the "Paradise for the Rich".

It occupies a vast area and is built on a lotus leaf-shaped natural lake. There are many graceful and flexible willows planted around it.

The road is planned to be flat and wide, and it is cleaned and maintained from time to time. It makes people feel relaxed and happy when they look at it. Walking in it, the mood will inevitably become peaceful.

Of course, due to the intoxicating scenery, the housing prices here are also frighteningly high. The buyers who can buy property here are usually rich enough to be beyond comparison.

When I drove into this community, most of the magnificent single-family buildings were in ruins, the glass was broken, and daily necessities were scattered along the road. In a few of the houses, the doors and windows had been reinforced, but it was only about the military. , People here fled along the trend, and the house that could have been used as a fortress was vacant.

Finding a house that was not too badly damaged as a place to sink, Xiang Lvzhu and Fang Lei spontaneously cleaned up the surrounding zombies.

"Ah Ling, hug~~~" Mu stretched out his hand, as if to be hugged by someone, his cheeks were flushed with shyness or weakness.

Probably because he didn't like the feeling of weakness caused by the lack of energy, Zhuo closed his eyes after leaving a few words in his notebook, handed over the control of his body to Mu, and hid in the depths of his heart, ignoring external objects of sleep.

"..." I pondered for a while, but because of his short arms and legs, I still bent down and hugged him.

"Ah Ling, you are so kind!" He happily rubbed against my cheek.

The fluffy hair rubbed against my skin, making my heart tremble.

With a blank expression, I patted his head with one free hand, carried him out of the car, and put him on the ground.

"walk on my own."

"Yeah." He replied, but naturally took my hand.

After a few days of recuperation, the hand that had finally regained its warmth became cold and cold again. I couldn't help but increase the strength on my hand, trying to pass the warmth on to him.

"Ah Ling," he asked in a childish voice, "Now that I'm getting smaller, can I stop being an adult and be a child?"

"why?"

"It says in the book that when you are a child, you have good benefits."

"..."

***

I didn't ask him what the so-called "welfare" was, but I asked the system, what happened to Mu's body?When can it be restored?

The exchange system really lived up to its name, and the answer to both questions was: "Unknown."

That's right, the exchange system is not just for exchanging items, it's really useless to use it as a scanner, let alone someone else's body.

The answer to the first question is classified as "drug conflict" for the time being. As for the second question, I guess it is possible to return it only after Maku's body stabilizes and adapts.

There is a children's room in the mansion. Looking at the toys inside, the original owner should be about the same age as Mu.

Opening the closet, there were still a few pieces of clothes of good quality left in it. After letting the curtains change, we came to the restaurant.

Xiang Lvzhu and Fang Lei also came back at this time, they took their seats one after another, the short Mu refused Fang Lei's help, climbed onto the high chair with a huff and sat opposite to Xiang Lvzhu, resting his chin with his hands, laughing fascinatedly I looked at it fascinated.

After a busy day, everyone was really hungry and tired. Thinking about the serious damage to Mu Mu's body, I exchanged some warm and tonic medicinal food for everyone to nourish their bodies together. Fang Lei's eyes lit up when he saw the hot food.

"Let's eat." I took the lead to put a piece of meat into the curtain bowl, Xiang Lvzhu and Fang Lei followed suit, Xiang Lvzhu ate gracefully but not restrained, Fang Lei was completely hungry.

Seeing this, I silently exchanged a few more meat and vegetable dishes. The combination of meat and vegetables can better take into account the nutritional balance of the body.

Xiang Lvzhu looked at me embarrassedly, then glared at his lover beside him to let him restrain himself, Fang Lei choked, his face flushed, he managed to swallow all the food in his mouth, and almost lost his breath go.

"It's okay, you have to eat to keep yourself full." I don't care about their big appetites at all.Eat more, replenish more energy, and you will have enough energy when hunting zombies.

After finishing the meal, I packed up the dinner plate, showed interest to Lu Zhu and Fang Lei, took a few crystal nuclei and exchanged a bunch of normal to extra-large clothes for me, dressed myself like a big ball, Started to play a bad card game where you lose one piece at a time.

For the sake of Mu's three views, I quickly took him out of the restaurant. He blinked and asked curiously: "That game looks very fun, don't we want to join?"

"No, let's go back to our room and read."

"But I want to play."

"No." The noise came from the dining room, and I hastened my pace.

"Why?" Mu strode his calf, a little out of breath.

"Because you are too young."

"A Ling, you are such a thief!" He pouted, a little dissatisfied, "When I was growing up, you said I was an adult, and I couldn't do this or that thing; now that I'm smaller, you say I'm too big Little, this thing is not allowed, and that thing is not allowed!"

"..." I looked up at the sky, feeling a little unreasonable for a while, and didn't know how to deal with it.

"That's right!" He let go of my hand suddenly, trotted forward a few steps, then turned around, and hugged my thigh.

The voice was soft and waxy: "Ah Ling, now that I'm getting smaller, I want to take a bath and sleep with you; when I grow up, we will play card games of undressing together."

I staggered and almost fell.

"no."

"Why do you always say 'no'?" He pouted, "It is mentioned in "Correct Early Childhood Education" that parents who always deny their children will have a bad influence on their children's growth."

"That's because I always feel that after agreeing to you, there will be more adverse effects..." I sighed, reached out and rubbed his head, feeling the softness of the hair.

In terms of parenting, I still have many shortcomings. Maybe I should read those professional books on the fifth floor when I was in the city library.

"?" Mu tilted his head, looking puzzled.

"It's okay." I said, "I'm not a qualified guardian yet, and the way of education is full of mistakes, but I will work hard so that I can reach the standard line as soon as possible, and you should also work hard so that you can become an independent adult as soon as possible. , okay?"

"Well, I like Ah Ling the most!" He hugged my thigh happily, "No matter what, you are [-]%!"

"Really..." I dragged my tone slightly, "Then tonight, you should sleep by yourself."

"Don't." The little face was immediately covered with dark clouds: "You can't go back on your word if you promise!"

"No." I hugged him up: "Words must be done, this is what a good guardian should do, right?"

"Yeah." He happily put his arms around my neck.
