I take skeletons to the apocalypse

"It's me, it's me." Hearing Jing Lan say that she knows herself, Yu Can's eyes lit up with hope: "We played together in college, had dinner together, and your boyfriend Xia Xi..."

Yu Can was eager to build a relationship with Jing Lan, so he picked up the experience of getting along with him in the past and talked about it. After talking, he came back to his senses, and glanced around, only to find that Xia Xi, who was inseparable from Jing Lan before, was not there.Looking at Jing Lan's indifferent face, Yu Can hurriedly stopped talking, and grinned dryly twice: "In a flash, things are really different."

Jing Lan didn't answer, she lowered her eyes and didn't know what to think.In the shadows there is a black mist, gushing from the ground.

Zhao Mo noticed something unusual, he seemed to think of something, and pulled Jing Lan out of the room.After a while, Chao Mo returned to the cell alone, and ordered some of them to follow Fifth Brother to move the supplies in the warehouse, and the other part was responsible for releasing the people in the cell.

Xia Xi didn't intend to help, unable to bear the smell in the warehouse, Xia Xi ran outside to breathe.As soon as he stepped out of the gate, he saw Jing Lan sitting on the top of the slope not far away. He tore open the package, stuffed a piece of hard candy into his mouth, and bit it hard.After a while, another piece was stuffed.There are still a lot of colorful wrapping paper scattered on the ground.

Xia Xi remembered that Jinglan didn't smoke or drink, and when she couldn't control her emotions, she liked to eat candy like this.

Xia Xi was worried that this way of eating would cause him to consume too much sugar, but fortunately, Jing Lan was able to control his emotions most of the time.

It doesn't matter now.

It doesn't matter how much sugar Jing Lan eats, he doesn't need to worry about the other party's health anymore.Xia Xi took out the needle and thread from her backpack and concentrated on mending the broken part of her cloak.

After a few times the needle and thread went astray, Xia Xi raised her head irritably, and a pair of skeleton hands quietly appeared behind Jing Lan, and when he was not paying attention, she touched the candy box in his hand.

Jing Lan touched the empty hand with the candy, and then heard the sound of tearing the candy paper from Xia Xi.

Seeing him looking over, Xia Xi purposely and unhurriedly peeled a piece of hard fruit candy out of the candy wrapper and pinched it between her fingertips.

He was going to eat it.But then I remembered that I couldn't eat in my current state, so I threw the fruit candy into the air.

The little crow on the shoulder soared into the air and swallowed the hard candy in one gulp.

"Quack." The little crow said more.

Xia Xi put the candy box aside: "Just eat one piece, it's not good to eat too much candy."

Jing Lan frowned, not because she was angry at being robbed of a few pieces of candy.He was just a little unbelievable, they had no shortage of supplies, how could someone be so bored as to steal his candy box: "Give it back to me."

"No." Xia Xi continued to sew her cloak with her head lowered, her tone a little arrogant: "The sound of you eating candy disturbed me."

This reason is more incomprehensible than the behavior itself. Jing Lan went to get the candy box by himself, until the skeleton got out of the ground, put the candy box on his head and ran away.

Jing Lan didn't chase after him anymore, he stood where he was, feeling a strange sense of relief, obviously he was the one who was robbed of the candy box, but now he was in a better mood than when he just ate the candy.It seems that when I have been eating candy like that, I have been looking forward to someone who can interrupt me.

It's fine if not out of concern.

In my memory, from childhood to adulthood, when I was in a bad mood, I ate sweets desperately, even if I ate it alone, no one ever came to ask me.

……

A memory emerged rebelliously from the depths of my mind.

It's not like it's not there, it's just that he forgot about it.

In my memory, it was late at night after I broke up with my father.He was alone on the dark balcony, and it was very hot outside, as if it was going to rain heavily.He hugged the sugar bowl and ate one piece after another.It's like every time I quarreled with my family and locked myself in the house when I was a child.

A beam of light suddenly lit up from overhead, and someone turned on the balcony light.Then Xia Xi jumped out from behind him in home clothes and snatched the sugar jar beside him.

"Wow, I'm usually not allowed to eat more cakes, but you secretly eat so much hard candy by yourself. I caught you!"

"Woke you up?" Jing Lan panicked as if she'd been caught doing something bad.He didn't want to show his embarrassing side in front of the person he liked.

But fortunately, Xia Xi didn't ask him why he ate so much sugar alone on the balcony late at night.He just put the sugar bowl in his arms, pretending to run away, and shouted: "Confiscate, confiscate, confiscate the sugar box."

Jing Lan only felt a slight sore nose: "Okay, confiscated."

Maybe it was because Jinglan's voice was wrong, Xia Xi turned to look at Jinglan's expression again, and said in surprise, "Oh, why are your eyes still red?"

Jing Lan hurriedly turned away, trying to find a clumsy reason for herself.Before he could figure it out, he felt that Xia Xi hugged his waist from behind, and put his head between his neck and arched gently, which was a comforting gesture.

"The kid is crying because he can't eat candy."

"Forget it, turn around and I'll give you the last piece."

Jing Lan heard the sound of peeling the candy paper. He couldn't find a reason to explain why he wanted to cry, but he could only acquiesce that he was a child who wanted to eat candy.

He turned his head and waited for Xia Xi to feed him the sugar.But she saw Xia Xi stuffing the candy into her mouth.

Then gave him a kiss.

The soft touch was on his lips, very gentle, with a little orange-sweet fragrance.

The sound of rain came from outside the window, accompanied by a cool evening breeze, the surrounding was very quiet, and he could clearly hear his own heartbeat.The rainy night in midsummer and the sweet kiss of orange flavor make up the last memory of that night.

At that time, Jing Lan thought that he would not need to rely on candy to make himself happy in the future.Because he found something sweeter than a sugar jar.

The sudden surge of memories made Jing Lan feel a little dazed.He lowered his eyelids, the hatred and hostility that surged up in his heart when he saw Yu Can seemed less intense.Instead, there is a heartache and unwillingness to lose something you love.

Why did he forget such an important memory?

If he was given a choice, he would even want to abandon the memory of the ten years of rebirth in the apocalypse, in exchange for his own life, in exchange for the three years spent with Xia Xi.

But then Jing Lan denied her naive idea.If I have no memory, I will not have the current strength in the early days of the end of the world, and my thoughts are too simple. There is a high probability that I will repeat the trajectory of my previous life. That will not make Xia Xi live a happier life, and will even make Xia Xi die even worse.

But in this life, he had a chance to protect Xia Xi.He just happens to be one step too late every time.

Xia Xi didn't know what Jing Lan was thinking at the moment, he only knew that the world became much quieter without Jing Lan crunching hard candies beside her.

He quietly mended the cloak, the previous battle caused a lot of damage, but luckily he had prepared some spare fabrics in advance.After mending for about an hour, he finally put the cloak back on. Xia Xi was getting up when he suddenly smelled a strong sweet cake wafting from the car not far away.

He turned his head in surprise, and saw Jing Lan carrying a plate of freshly baked small cakes from the oven and putting them on the hood of the off-road vehicle.The cake was sweet and soft, filled with cream in the middle, which was exactly what Xia Xi liked.

"Gulu." Xia Xi, who couldn't eat, swallowed a big mouthful of saliva that didn't exist.For the matter of regaining his human form, he felt a bit of urgency in his heart.

Jing Lan put out the finished cake and raised his head to meet Xia Xi's gaze. Although through the mask, he could feel a bit of eagerness from the dark hole.

"Eat?" By the time Jing Lan realized it, the question had already been asked.

"...No need." Xia Xi painfully refused: "I don't eat."

Jing Lan nodded, and continued to play with the remaining cakes, as if planning to steam another plate.

Xia Xi couldn't help being puzzled. In the past, Jing Lan herself didn't like to eat this kind of cream cake.The one who likes to eat this cake is myself.So why is he baking so many cream cakes all of a sudden?

But even more puzzled than him were the members of the Light Chasing Squad.

Especially when Jing Lan pointed at the tray with a dark face and said, "I don't like this, you can finish it."

"The sun came out from the west? Jing Lan invited us to eat a cake? He won't poison it?" Gu Ming looked at the cake warily, as if he was looking at something dangerous and explosive.

"Probably not, I watched him finish baking." Xia Xi said, "You guys finish eating, it looks delicious, don't waste it."

If possible, he also wants to eat cake, but now he can only wear a mask of pain to persuade others not to waste it.

"But this is very strange. Jing Lan suddenly made a cake for us to eat." Gu Ming picked up a piece of cake and took a big bite: "Well, it's really delicious."

Another team member seemed much more sober: "Don't be so sentimental, it should be just that he wants to make a cake, but he doesn't want to eat it himself, so as to avoid waste. He gave it to us."

Gu Ming: "But why did he suddenly want to make cakes?"

"Who knows, maybe I was stimulated by something."

"For the cake to be so delicious, can he be stimulated every day?"

……

The light-chasing team eating cake was full of joyful atmosphere.But Lao Wu and his party, who were captured on the other side, were a little restless.

He asked Xiang Lei, who was in charge of guarding them, over and over again, when they had already cooperated and done everything, when would they be released.

Xiang Lei was annoyed by the questioning, so he ordered Lao Wu and his party to come to Chaomo and asked, "Captain, what should we do with these people?"

Chaomo had already planned for this: "Shut it up in the warehouse, and notify the prophet to come and fetch them."

"Yes."

When Lao Wu heard this, he became anxious: "You promised me that as long as I cooperate with you, I will let me go afterwards."

Chao Mo blinked innocently, smiling softly: "You may have misremembered, I only promised not to send you back to the Chosen One."

Xia Xi, who was teasing the crow, laughed out loud when he heard this. He found that Chaomo was more interesting than he had imagined.

Not long after, the rescued people came out of the warehouse in twos and threes. They had already been cleaned up briefly, found the confiscated luggage, and changed into clean clothes.

A middle-aged man seemed to be the backbone of this group of people. He was pushed and shoved, and came to Chaomo to thank him.

Chao Mo asked about their origins.

The middle-aged man said: "We all come from the north. The mutation over there is too fierce. By the time everyone realizes, there are not many living people left in the city. We are all fleeing. We met together on the road. Thinking that it would be easy to do things with so many people, we gathered together and walked together. I didn’t expect that there were so many people with big goals, and I was deceived by people on the way, and almost lost my life.”

"Then where are you going?"

The middle-aged man took out a leaflet from his pocket, on which was printed information about the refuge in Jingting City: "The destination of our trip is Jingting City, and I heard that there is a super shelter that can accommodate millions of people. It is a large refuge, and many weapons that can fight mutant creatures have been researched. As long as you go in, everyone will be safe."

"It's safe there?" Gu Ming couldn't help but sneered, showing a bit of pity on his expression.These people probably don't know that the people who locked them here are basically the same as the research institute in Jingting City.

Chao Mo did not object to their plan.Put aside the prejudices that are hostile to each other.In the previous life, the largest Jingting Sanctuary did indeed survive to the end of the doomsday. Their human, material, technological capabilities are far beyond what other forces can match.It's just that they secretly don't treat people as people, and they don't do less.

But relatively speaking, most of the people living inside are people, so it is still safer than outside, which is understandable.

"In addition." The middle-aged man showed a somewhat embarrassed look: "We still have a little work, and hope to ask you for help. If it is convenient, we hope you can escort us out of the sphere of influence of the Chosen One."

"Wow, all these off-road vehicles belong to you? Do you still have supernatural weapons?" On the other side, Yu Can looked enviously at the equipment of the light-chasing team.He eagerly moved to Jing Lan's side: "Jing Lan, I'm also a second-level supernatural being. In view of our old classmates' friendship, can you tell your captain to bring me along?"

Obviously he misunderstood Jing Lan's identity.He only heard others calling Captain Chaomo, so he thought that Jing Lan was also a member of the team.

Jing Lan's mood is much calmer now than before, and she can even ask Yu Can calmly: "Want to join us? Are you going to Jingting City?"

Yu Can was taken aback by the question, but he didn't think about it.Because he met many people along the way, they were all heading for Jingting City, he subconsciously thought that Jing Lan and the others were the same.It was only after this question that I realized: "Isn't your destination Jingting City?"

"No."

"where is that?"

"Nothing to do with you."

Yu Can choked for a moment, and vaguely felt that something was wrong with Jing Lan. In his memory, he would never talk to others like this.

But in the current situation, it's not easy for him to get angry with Jing Lan. He heard that Jing Lan didn't want to say it, so he hesitated for a moment, then he retreated and said: "Then you don't need to introduce me to join the team, you go and talk to your captain, Can you let your convoy escort us for a while? You see, most of us in this car are ordinary people without supernatural powers. The squad that can use weapons has no power to fight back at all. Or give us some weapons? It’s really not possible, let’s exchange supplies with you?”

Hearing Yu Can's proposal, several supernatural beings in the company immediately echoed: "We don't take advantage of you, we are willing to exchange supplies with you for some supernatural weapons. There are twelve second-level supernatural weapons in our team. Those who can, each one. You can ask how much supplies you want."

"What supplies?" Jing Lan sneered, "Where are your supplies here?"

Yu Can was taken aback: "It's the ones in the warehouse behind. We have three trucks of supplies."

Jing Lan said quietly: "We seized that from the warehouse, what does it have to do with you?"

"No," Yu Can became anxious: "That's our stuff, Jing Lan, what do you mean? We have hundreds of people, waiting for this little supplies to eat, your team is so rich, even our little supplies Want to grab it?"

Jing Lan: "The one who robbed you is the Chosen One."

Yu Can: "But now the things are with you."

Jing Lan curled his mouth, but his eyes were gloomy and cold, and black mist spread out from his body: "So you think I'm more negotiable than the Chosen One, they robbed you, but you came to me for it? Want to change weapons? Want us to escort you? Yu Can, who gave you the guts to push forward in front of me?"
