16 years

Twelve hours after the outbreak of the apocalypse, Fu Yan received a notice of "emergency reinstatement" just like in his previous life.

It's just that this time he didn't obey the transfer order and immediately set off back to Yancheng, but reported Shao Xuefan's affairs truthfully.

"Fang Sining is in Pengcheng, I think it is necessary to protect it." Fu Yan said flatly: "Once the infection really spreads, we need all scientific research talents."

There was silence on the phone for a while, as if he was considering his proposal, and finally said to let Fu Yan stand by for the time being, and let them have a meeting to discuss this matter.

Fu Yan was not in a hurry, anyway, he knew that the other party would definitely agree.

About half an hour later, the mobile phone rang again. As soon as Fu Yan pressed the connect button, a slightly hoarse male voice came from the opposite side.

"Wu Diao," said the man.

Fu Yan quickly changed his posture and sat up straight without any trace, Liu Ruosong blinked, always feeling that it was some kind of conditioned reflex.

"Number one." Fu Yan said, "Is that you?"

"To make a long story short." The man known as "No. [-]" said in a deep voice: "In addition to City S, cases have appeared in Shencheng and Jiangcheng. This kind of 'rabies' spreads too fast, and we don't have much time to react. Once If necessary, an evacuation blockade will be implemented immediately."

Fu Yan replied yes.

"Fang Sining is very important. I have already approved your application, and I will try my best to arrange white-headed kites to support you in the future." The man said: "The situation outside is unknown, and we may not be able to provide you with real help. You must be mentally prepared."

Fu Yan agreed and said, "Don't worry."

The man sighed, and finally said: "Synchronize coordinates at any time, pay attention to safety."

Both ends of the phone call were taciturn, and the phone call only lasted more than fifty seconds, which was too short to be a "task item".

"Your leader agrees?" Liu Ruosong asked.

"Yes." Fu Yan said: "Shao Xuefan is dead, Fang Sining, as the student closest to him, can only make use of it."

Liu Ruosong: "..."

What you said doesn't respect other experts and scholars at all, Liu Ruosong complained in his heart: "You are a high-achieving student, so you make it sound like you have a low-end experimental equipment."

Liu Ruosong sighed, and said in his heart that he hoped the trip would go smoothly and nothing would happen on the way.

He was preoccupied with other things, worrying about whether Fu Yan would encounter an accident during the 1000-kilometer journey, and worrying about the deterioration of the blood collection tube in his arms.

Liu Ruosong leaned on the half-reclined car seat and stared at the night sky outside the skylight, his mind kept spinning, but he couldn't think of anything, just like a bearing that was idling ineffectively.

After a few minutes, a thick coat was thrown on him.

Liu Ruosong turned his head to look suspiciously, but saw Fu Yanyan coming over, straightening the crooked coat, and tucking the slightly stiff collar inside, so as not to hurt Liu Ruosong.

"elder brother?"

"Go to sleep." Fu Yan withdrew his hand and said, "Come on."

Fu Yan wore this jacket all day, and the inner lining was stained with his warm body temperature.Surrounded by the heat, Liu Ruosong turned his head and shrank into his clothes, smelling a little tobacco smell inside.

The backrest of Fu Yan's driver's seat is straight. He is wearing a light underwear. His exposed muscles stretch out nicely. His right hand unconsciously rests on the gear lever, rubbing left and right, and his eyes unconsciously fall on the car directly in front of him. Outside the window, he seemed to be in a daze, but also seemed to be on guard.

Liu Ruosong looked at him unscrupulously in the blind spot behind him, wrapped in the coat that Fu Yan gave him, and his heart almost turned into a ball of cotton.

At times like this, Fu Yan would always make him very excited.

Liu Ruosong himself didn't understand where that kind of heartbeat came from, maybe it was because of his reliability, or maybe it was because of his carelessness under the incomprehensible style.

Fu Yan is like a double-edged sword, his charm and flaw come from the same place, while Liu Ruosong feels uneasy in him, he also draws a steady stream of security.

Silence spread in the narrow compartment, Liu Ruosong watched him quietly for 2 minutes in this rare silence, then stretched out a hand from the large coat, groping to reach Fu Yan's.

Fu Yan quickly came back to his senses, held his hand behind his back, and asked what was wrong.

"Are you worried?" Liu Ruosong asked, "What were you thinking just now?"

"I'm thinking about what to do after you return to the base." Fu Yan said, "After all, I don't know what's going on there now."

In her previous life, when Liu Ruosong returned to the base, it was already a stable period in the last days. There were mountains of corpses and blood, and the city was almost at a standstill.But it is still in the early days of the apocalypse, the general public does not know enough about this matter, and the base has not released any definite information about it. Fu Yan is indeed a little worried, fearing that Liu Ruosong will not be able to live in the base after returning.

"That's all you're worried about?" Liu Ruosong was amused by him, so he simply squeezed his hand and comforted him: "It's okay, Uncle Zhao belongs to my father's old friend, no matter how bad it is, I will pay him a visit. He's never going to throw me out."

This is the truth, Fu Yan's "No. [-]" Zhao Jincheng is an old comrade-in-arms of Liu Ruosong's parents, and they are also very close to each other. Liu Ruosong used to eat his snacks when he was a child.

But in fact, compared to the matter of "how will Liu Ruosong settle down", Fu Yan has another matter in mind.

When there is a mission notification from the base, it means that the rescue mission has already started.If there is no accident, at the latest tomorrow, City S will organize an official rescue. At that time, he will hand over Liu Ruosong to the official people, and then set off to find Fang Sining by himself.

In other words... Tomorrow at the latest, they will be separated.

After the end of the early days, all public transportation has almost stopped. Airplanes, trains, and people have lost the means of easily crossing mountains and seas in the past. It is almost even more difficult to meet each other.

Even someone like Fu Yan who has the equipment, went out in his previous life and had to go over mountains and ridges, walk crookedly through the entire mission journey, and then return to the base for a few days to rest for a short time, and then walked for several months.

In the late end of the world, due to the lack of manpower, public facilities cannot be maintained, and even communication equipment has been affected. The disappearance of remote communication means that the distance between people has been further widened.Fu Yan recalled it subconsciously, only to realize that in the last period of his previous life, he and Liu Ruosong could only rely on their memories of each other to live.

When you are busy, you don’t think much of it. When rescue missions, running for your life at any time, and water shortages fill your mind, it’s hard to make people feel sad. Fu Yan doesn’t have the time to love his children.

But he knew in his heart that it was not that he didn't miss Liu Ruosong.

Especially after the long-lost tranquility, he actually developed a little "reluctant" selfishness.

The sense of guilt that Fu Yan had been deliberately ignored before began to reappear, and in this quiet night, a grass sprout quietly sprouted from the bottom of his heart, gently stirring his heart.

"The weather is really nice today." Liu Ruosong said suddenly, "Although it's not a good day, the stars are so bright."

Fu Yanxun raised his head following his voice, only to realize that he had pushed the skylight open at some point.There are not so many street lights in the suburbs, and the stars in the sky are shining on the night sky, which is very clear.

Liu Ruosong was used to having fun while suffering, so he changed to a more comfortable position, put his right arm behind his head, and shook the hand that was holding Fu Yan.

"Although it's not very good to say so, I always feel like I haven't wasted time with you for a long time." Liu Ruosong said: "The last time I made an appointment to go to Xiangshan to watch the stars was three years ago, but unfortunately you had a temporary training that day."

Fu Yan paused, obviously remembering this incident, and apologized.

"It's nothing, today's one looks good too." Liu Ruosong said.

Liu Ruosong's voice was very gentle, Fu Yan sometimes even felt that his mild temper was really suitable to be a teacher - he must be the kind that children like the most, Fu Yan thought.

"You don't have to worry." Liu Ruosong said, "I will deliver the things safely. Although the weather is a bit dangerous, I will see if I can find a way to store them in a low-temperature environment on the way."

"I'm not worried about blood samples." Fu Yan said.

"Then you are worried about me?" Liu Ruosong smiled, and said, "Then there's no need, you handed over all your guns to me, and I—"

"After we separate, we may not see each other for a long time." Fu Yan said in a low voice, "I'm wondering if you can get used to it there."

Liu Ruosong was slightly taken aback.

Fu Yan didn't know what to think of, so he slightly tightened his hand and squeezed it hard.

"I will go back as soon as possible." Fu Yan said: "In the future... I will try my best to go back."

Fu Yan doesn't know how to say nice sweet words, even words like "I miss you" and "I can't bear you" feel hot.However, with just these two sentences, Liu Ruosong was still stunned by what he said.

Separation is the most common thing for the two of them.In the past, he mostly accommodated Fu Yan and chose to take vacations when the other party took turns. However, the nature of Fu Yan's work is special, and it is inevitable that something unexpected will happen and he has to be called away.

They are used to meeting each other and being separated in life, and then waiting for the next meeting.Not to mention Fu Yan, even Liu Ruosong was used to this, and even subconsciously took it for granted.

This was the first time that Fu Yan clearly expressed the emotion of "reluctance". Liu Ruosong didn't know what he thought of in just a few minutes, but it was inevitable that he brought out a little emotion.

Both of them knew very well that there were not many opportunities to get together to talk quietly, the sword of Damocles was already hanging over everyone's heads, and the current silence was just coming from the rain Stolen from deterrence.

"Although I've said this sentence many times." Liu Ruosong pursed his lips and said nervously, "But...be careful, even if you can't find Fang Sining, you'll be fine."

"I know." Fu Yan said.

After Fu Yan finished speaking, he leaned over and approached Liu Ruosong.He poked his hand under the jacket, and carefully touched the holster on Liu Ruosong's waist, and then he carefully touched the edge of the holster, checking it very carefully.

Liu Ruosong let him check obediently, and Fu Yan finally helped him tighten the buckle of the holster, and then tucked in the jacket that was crooked by him.

After finishing all this, he pulled down the sun visor of the front car, closed the sunroof, then bowed slightly, and kissed Liu Ruosong's forehead.

"Go to sleep." Fu Yan said.
