After the Earthquake of Rebirth

On May 5, No. 27 days after the earthquake.

During the day, Du Cheng still left home early to join the rescue team, but now it is very difficult to meet survivors who can survive to be rescued.In fact, starting from the sixth day after the earthquake, it was very difficult to meet survivors.Just keeping the purpose of not giving up all hope, the rescue team used life detectors to detect all areas in the entire D city.

And Ning Qiyan stayed in the space to tidy up except for the day when the chicken laid eggs for the first time. On other days, he drove around to search the ruins. At first it was food, but as more and more survivors were searched, the food was often collected by everyone. As the first choice, Ning Qiyan picked up everything he could use and took it home.

Unopened seasonings, well-packaged daily necessities, clothes with labels... There are even two unweaned kittens.

As more and more things were collected, Ning Qiyan's money box became more and more full.Not only him, even Du Cheng would put coins and jewelry in his bag when he was rescued.

At noon, Ning Qiyan held a piece of compressed biscuit in his mouth, and fed a milk bowl in each hand to two kittens who were not as long as a palm.

These two kittens were picked up three days ago, and the old cat on the side was already dead, and the two trembling little things were snuggled up to the stiff old cat. When Ning Qiyan saw it, he couldn't bear it, so he had to Bring home the two little ones.If he doesn't care about them, without the care of the cat mother, these two newborn little lives can only wait for death.Whether it was before rebirth or now, Ning Qiyan was used to seeing death, and it was this habit that made him feel a rare touch for a new life.

But he couldn't bear it anymore, these two little guys also caused him a lot of trouble.

Because the birth time is too short, the time interval between each breastfeeding is very short, which is what Du Cheng told him.And he and Du Cheng had to go out every day, and they couldn't enter the space casually outside, so Ning Qiyan had to put the two kittens in the car, and got into the car to nurse them every few moments.

dong dong dong.

Ning Qiyan swallowed the biscuit in his mouth, and looked up at the car window.

"How did you find it?" Ning Qiyan looked at Du Cheng who got into the car in surprise.

Du Cheng took two bowls from Ning Qiyan's hand, "Hey, you eat first. A few days ago you said that you would be doing activities here during this time, so I'll come and have a look."

Ning Qiyan asked while twisting the water bottle: "Aren't you going with the team today?"

"The rescue team was disbanded, and the team leader asked us to come back to rest. If you want, you can join the new search team." Du Cheng explained.

Ning Qiyan was a little confused, so he didn't understand until Du Chengquan explained that all the areas within D city had been detected, and everyone who could be rescued had been rescued.So the rescue team that Du Cheng joined was disbanded after completing the mission.But if you want, you can also join the search team formed by the government. The salary is the same as that of the rescue team, and the supplies are doubled. However, the main task of the search team is to clean up the ruins. The available materials in the collection are collected and handed over.

"What are your plans?" Ning Qiyan asked.

Du Cheng shook his head, "I don't intend to participate, as there will be too many contact with corpses, it will easily lead to problems."

Ning Qiyan nodded, and he didn't want Du Cheng to drag the corpse, who knows if he would be infected with some unclean bacteria.

"It's going to be a mess." Ning Qiyan said suddenly, looking at the people rummaging through the ruins outside the window.

Du Cheng didn't say a word. He had been following the rescue team during this time. He heard that chaos had started at the resettlement site a few days ago. At the beginning, it was just a small disturbance. After a long time, the order may start to become chaotic.It was one thing that he didn't want to join the search team to touch the corpse, but more importantly, he was worried that Ning Qiyan would come out to find things by himself.

After feeding the two kittens in silence, Du Cheng got out of the car with Ning Qiyan, and then began to rummage in the place Ning Qiyan had cleaned up before.

When it was getting dark, the two began to walk back.

After dinner, neither of them was very tired. They sat in the yard and watched the kitten, which was now able to walk steadily, circle around Du Dabao.

"I want to go to the prison tomorrow." Du Cheng said suddenly.

Ning Qiyan was taken aback for a moment, nodded and said nothing.

Du Cheng has been in prison for nine years, no matter how bad the environment is, he may meet good friends.It's just that Du Cheng didn't mention it before. He thought he had no friends in the prison anymore. He didn't expect Du Cheng to mention it half a month after the earthquake.

Ning Qiyan didn't say much, Du Cheng could go if he wanted to, and he wouldn't if he didn't want to, he didn't have any opinion.

A night without dreams.

Because Du Cheng didn't have to hurry with the team anymore, it was rare for the two of them to sleep late together.I didn't get up until after nine o'clock.After breakfast, the two drove towards the prison.

Because he had this idea before, Du Cheng inquired with others about the way to the prison during the rescue interval.

D City Prison is located in the Northwest District, not very far from Longshan Park.Unlike survivors in other places, those in the prison were not relocated to Longshan Park.Except for the collapse of a corner of the cafeteria during the earthquake, other buildings in the entire prison are still very strong. Due to the special nature of the personnel in the prison, the government has not relaxed the management of the prison.Even prisoners with real guns and live ammunition are still supervised by soldiers when they participate in the rescue.

"Hello, can I visit the prison now? What's the procedure?" Standing in front of the prison gate, Ning Qiyan asked the guard at the gate.

Du Cheng stood not far away, looking up at the majestic gate, wondering what to think.

The guard looked at the mild-faced young man with a relaxed expression, and pointed to the small door next to him, "There is no procedure in this special period. Go in through the small door over there, search first, and then just tell the prison guard the name of the person you want to meet."

After Ning Qiyan thanked him, he walked into the small door with Du Cheng.

Although the process of visiting the prison was omitted a lot, the body search was extremely strict.After the machine scans, there is a close inspection by prison guards.

The two prison guards, one old and one young, were inspecting closely. Before Ning Qiyan could move, Du Cheng pushed him in front of the old prison guard.

……

Ning Qiyan accepted the inspection speechlessly, while the young prison guard on the side blinked, looked at the expressionless Du Cheng, and resigned himself to his fate, stepped forward to start the inspection as well.

He originally wanted to check on the gentle-breathing young man next to him, but the one in front of him... was a bit stressed.

Due to the careful inspection, not only the waist and leg bends, but also the shoes were turned back and forth to see clearly.After the inspection was finally over, the old prison guard asked the two for the name of the person they wanted to visit.

Ning Qiyan paused, he looked like Du Cheng.

"An Peng." Du Cheng said.

The old prison guard nodded and asked the two to wait a while, then went to the room next to the examination room and took out a notebook.

An Peng...No. 3187.

The old prison guard confirmed that An Peng did not go out with the team today, so he took Ning Qiyan and the two to the visiting room.The young prison guard went to the prison first to call someone.

The communication equipment was paralyzed, and the internal telephone in the prison became a decoration, so the waiting time was very long.

Before the person Du Cheng wanted to meet came, Ning Qiyan chatted with the old prison guard.

When the earthquake happened, the inmates in the prison happened to have a morning break in the open area. In addition, the building of the prison was very solid. Only a small corner of the prison cafeteria collapsed, and there were no casualties.

Immediately after the earthquake, there were several riots in the prison, but they were all suppressed. It was not until the army came to take over the control of the prison that the internal disturbances were completely quelled.Afterwards, all the inmates participated in the rescue in the city under the supervision of the army. Now that the rescue is over, the prison is divided into two teams, and one team takes turns to go out to clean up the ruins every day.

"Now the higher authorities are formulating a new reward and punishment system. If you perform well, you may be released from prison early. And now that the situation is special, the higher authorities intend to shorten the sentence. If you have time, you should have a definite result in a few days." The old prison guard sat While talking to Ning Qiyan.

Ning Qi made it clear.

In extraordinary times and extraordinary systems, the whole world is now in chaos, and it is difficult to implement the supervision and inspection system in detail.Theft and robbery have happened frequently now, and it is difficult to investigate thoroughly even if they report to the police. Compared with the outside world, the existing prisoners in the prison, who are truly vicious, have been executed long ago.The crime is not very serious, and it is normal for the sentence to be appropriately reduced or even released from prison early.

After chatting with the old prison guard for a while, I heard a knock on the door.Walking in behind the young prison guard who had left before was a middle-aged man in his forties, with a strong build, about the same size as Du Cheng, who was nearly 1.9 meters tall.His expression is quite peaceful, but the finger-long scar at the corner of his eyebrows makes people feel a little fierce at first glance.

After the middle-aged man came in, he first looked at Ning Qiyan, paused in his footsteps, glanced at Du Cheng next to him, and then still looked at Ning Qiyan.

Ning Qiyan was a little puzzled, but he didn't know what the relationship between Du Cheng and the visitor was, so he had to wear a signature smile on his face, but he didn't expect that in exchange for a smile that was obviously softer on the man's brows and eyes.

Ning Qiyan hesitated, then looked at Du Cheng who didn't speak.

"It seems that things are going well after going out." After the man sat down, he looked away from Ning Qiyan and said to Du Cheng through the viewing glass.

Du Cheng nodded.

……

The man looked helplessly at the young man he had been with for nine years. It could be said that he had personally watched Du Cheng grow from a pure and introverted boy to a silent but vicious young man.The only thing that remains the same is the reluctance to speak.

"Du Cheng, you are the one who came to see me, but you are talking!"

Ning Qiyan pursed his lower lip, trying to hide the almost smirk.

Not only him, but even the old prison guard who supervised him was a little funny.

I have seen people visiting the prison, but I have never seen anyone who came to visit the prison and did not speak.

"I just came to see if you are still alive." Du Cheng hooked the corner of his mouth.

The man was speechless, and decided to ignore this irritating kid, and turned to look at the gentle young man sitting quietly beside him.

"Ning Qiyan, right? I'm An Peng, a roommate of Du Cheng's prison. Du Cheng often talked about you before."

Ning Qiyan smiled, "Brother An, Du Cheng didn't trouble you to take care of me before, did you?" Although Du Cheng and this man didn't say a few words, Ning Qiyan could tell just by Du Cheng's obviously relaxed expression. When they were in prison, the relationship between the two must have been good.

The man waved his hand, "Call me Beard, I'm not used to hearing you say 'Brother An' out of the blue. Du Cheng didn't cause much trouble when he was here, and he didn't take care of him."

Ning Qiyan nodded, trusting the man's words. In his impression, Du Cheng had always been taciturn and didn't provoke others. Presumably, he should remain the same even in prison.

On the contrary, there was a hint of playfulness in Huzi's eyes, and he glanced at the silent Du Cheng.He said that it was true that Du Cheng didn't cause trouble, but what kind of place is a prison, if you don't cause trouble, you can't stop others from messing with you.Now that Ning Qiyan obviously believed his own words, it seemed that the matter of Du Cheng being called a "lunatic" had never been mentioned to Ning Qiyan at all.I'm afraid I don't want him to know about the prison.

Huzi thought calmly, it seems that Du Cheng really held this fair and handsome young man in his palm to protect him, even Du Cheng didn't tell him about his vicious past, did he want to keep the young man innocent?

I don't know if this protection is for the love from childhood to adulthood, or the monopoly of my own belongings...
