doomsday seclusion

A month later.

The orange moon is approaching, and the temperature is gradually cooling down.

I stayed in the room, turned on the heater, and slowly hardly ever went out.

The approaching blizzard is more difficult for me than the invasion of zombies. I am naturally afraid of cold, so I am doomed to regard low temperature as my enemy.

Today, however, there was an urgent matter and I had to go out. I dressed myself in an onion style, layer after layer, and when I went downstairs, Xiang Lvzhu was already waiting in the courtyard.

She was wearing a long skirt, high riding boots under her feet, a woolen sweater and a coat on her upper body, and a red scarf as decoration, her whole body was bright and radiant.

Fang Lei, who was standing aside with the key in his hand, couldn't help muttering, "Why don't you go to the warehouse to pick up supplies, do you need to dress so beautifully..."

"It's a woman's nature to love beauty, you don't understand!" She quickly replied, snatched the car key from her big palm, and got on the passenger seat of the van gracefully.

I shook my head, followed into the driver's seat, and took the key from her.

As soon as the car started, Fang Lei rushed over, lying on the side of the passenger seat door, and asked pitifully, "...Do you really need me to go with you?"

"There is no place for you in the car, don't give up!" Xiang Lvzhu angrily said.

"We're just going to move something, and we'll be back in the evening." I smiled and said, "I'll leave the fruits and vegetables in the yard to you. If you want to eat ripe ones, pick them as much as you can."

"Oh..." He looked disappointed, like a big dog about to be abandoned.

"Let's go!" Xiang Lvzhu was not soft-hearted, he closed the window with a hook of his index finger, and isolated the nougat from the window.

There was indeed not much time, so I nodded to him apologetically, and stepped on the gas pedal.

***

"Really, I don't know where I learned this stickiness, I can't stand it anymore!"

After entering the city, I muttered to the green bamboo that it was still broken.

I smiled, her words reminded me unconsciously of the curtain, it's been so long, I don't know how he is now?

When Zhuo left with the zombie Fang Lei a month ago, I wasn’t sure if he would come back. The fear and emptiness that he might never see again made me feel uneasy all the time. I attributed it to the guardian’s concern. But whether this is the case, he subconsciously refused to think about it.

"Probably because you are dressed too beautifully, which makes him feel insecure." I said.

Xiang Lvzhu blushed when he heard this.

"This... I'm just in a good mood to dress casually, and besides, it's not him who I want to meet... Oh, why is it so messed up like I'm going to have an affair..."

"Don't be shy," I said with a smile, "whether it's a zombie or an ordinary person, their essence is the same person, you will be attracted at the same time, that's perfectly normal."

"But..." She was still a little awkward.

"Actually, Fang Lei, who is an ordinary person, doesn't care whether he hides it or not. He should understand in his heart that since there are parallel worlds, there must be countless "hes". What he cares about is who you choose. That's all."

"Of course it's that big fool!" She said bluntly, but then hesitated: "It should be..."

Sure enough.

I grinned.

Even if he is attracted by the zombie Fang Lei, it is only a momentary appreciation. Even if he can entrust his life and death, there is no unforgettable love.

Xiang Lvzhu probably understands that even if it is "Fang Lei", it does not belong to the "Xiang Lvzhu" of this world. It has its own lover and its own ideals, and it is precisely because of this that it will not stop here. rest.

"I don't know if it is a person, or it will bring good news." At this moment, Xiang Lvzhu regained his mood and began to chat about business.

"...I hope it's the latter." I said.

A month ago, when the zombie Fang Lei left, he brought up the matter of Qinghe Hospital's underground research institute.

He was not like me, he found the entrance from the dean's room on the top floor out of curiosity, but when he crossed the world, he misplaced his positioning and entered the interior directly.

At that time, his appearance caused a lot of confusion. After seeing the experimental cabin and various experimental equipment, he directly captured the leading old man alive, and casually asked about the source of the experimental subject and the purpose of the experiment.

In order to save his life, the old man naturally explained everything. After listening, Fang Lei, the zombie, lost all interest. He just sealed up all the researchers in order to hide his whereabouts. Even Zhuo Mu in the experimental cabin was also buried in the sea of ​​flames. .

Afterwards, the underground research institute of Qinghe Hospital became only an insignificant small imprint on its journey, which will not be forgotten, but it will not be specifically mentioned.

When I saw Zhuo in this world, because he was a child, it only felt familiar, and didn't think of it for a while. Instead, Zhuo caught a flash of memory when he was reading his mind, so he took the initiative to make a deal with the other party. .

The content of the transaction is that Zhuo assists the other party to collect emeralds, and the zombie Fang Lei helps Zhuo cross the world and go to another underground research institute of Qinghe Hospital. The consciousness of one of the "Zhuo" or "Mu" is imported into the new body.

"I really don't know if it will be Zhuo or Mu who will be implanted into the new body?" Xiang Lvzhu asked.

This question is really difficult to answer.

As long as it is an operation, there must be risks, not to mention that no matter how good the spare body is, it cannot compare with the body in the original world. If we look at it from this point of view, Zhuo will choose to transplant the consciousness of the screen.

It's just that his current body has shrunk to an unbearable level due to drug disorders. Judging from Zhuo's personality, he must not wait for his body to recover indefinitely, but will choose consciousness transplantation decisively.

Unless research all ways to solve this problem.

"Instead of guessing, seeing is believing." That's all I could say.

"That's the only way to go." Xiang Lvzhu also said.

***

The car drove smoothly all the way, and after passing through the urban area, it came to the Liulin District in the west without any wind or waves.

There is nothing special in the community except for some scattered zombies. When we came to the mansion where we stayed, the appearance didn’t change much, but the moment we opened the door, Xiang Lvzhu and I were greeted by emerald gems all over the room. squinted.

"They're here!" Xiang Lvzhu said happily.

The zombie Fang Lei came out from the back of the hall at this time.

"Mr. Su Ling, are these enough?" it asked.

"It depends on the quality." I laughed in my heart, all these jadeites are very familiar, aren't they the products of "Imperial Treasure Studio"!

When it comes to collecting jadeite, the first thing that comes to Mu Mu's mind is the underground antique street. It's probably because he told Zhuo and Fang Lei that they would search there.

"It's definitely not enough." Xiang Lvzhu, who was once a provider of emeralds, said.

"Of course it's not just these." Zombie Fang Lei added, "The second, third and fourth floors are also there."

"That's enough," I said.

"By the way, Zhuo and Mu are back." It said again, "They are upstairs."

"They?" Covering his mouth to the green bamboo, "that is to say..."

"That's right, the transplant operation was successful, very successful." It nodded with a smile.

"The one transplanted into the new body is..."

"it's me."
