September [-]rd, five o'clock in the morning.Zhang Luotuo suddenly opened his eyes.He found himself sweating.He had a dream. He dreamed that he was in the game plaza, talking to Joad, looking towards the city.

And after he woke up, he suddenly realized that this had already happened, a few days ago.He sighed and rubbed his head, feeling that the drowsiness had completely subsided.He sat up and looked to the other side of the bed, the sheets were messy, there was no one there, there was the sound of water in the bathroom, Joad had woken up and was taking a shower.Zhang Luotuo stood up, turned his ankles, and walked to the window.The huge sky is like a dense gray cloth, from which some dim bright grays come out. The sky is already bright, as it always is in Chongqing.Nothing seemed to have changed, but Zhang Luotuo looked quietly into the distance. He felt the atmosphere was different from usual. His heart was like an arrow on a string, ready to break through the seemingly peaceful urban jungle at any time.

The door of the bathroom was gently pushed open, Joad came out from inside, and he wiped off the dripping water with a white towel.He looked up, his gray eyes gleaming in the incandescent light.

His eyes collided with Zhang Luotuo's.They were all stunned for a moment, but they didn't look away.

Zhang Luotuo saw Qiao De's heart, and Qiao De looked calm, no different from usual.But his heart was like an arrow ready to go, just like him.

"How are you?" Joad came over and asked him, noticing the drops of sweat on his brow.

Zhang Luotuo blinked and answered him with a smile: "Very good."

Zhang Luotuo glanced out the window.He remembered his dream.

face the city.

It is today.

On September [-]rd, at six o'clock in the morning, Zhang Luotuo and Qiao De finished washing, and they walked into the living room together. As soon as they stepped in, the phone rang from the ground, shocking the entire apartment.Joad walked over cautiously and looked at the phone number. "Lu Xing." Displayed above.Only then did he pick it up with confidence.

"Hello." He said, stroking the camel's hair, who was looking at him curiously, wanting to listen to the phone call.

"Hello." Lu Xing said, "Are you ready for what will happen in a few hours?" He sounded energetic, even a little excited, and Zhang Luotuo could hear him without answering the phone.

"Okay!" He said very clearly, while chanting those battle plans aloud, as if afraid that everyone present would forget, "I'm here to call to remind you—we'll go directly to the company later, and wait until nine o'clock Many minutes to start action, you must remember that the signal light sent by Qiao De is red, Zhang Luotuo's is blue, Zheng Zheng is green, I am yellow, bright yellow, the first is me, Qiao De, you must remember, As soon as I send you the yellow signal light, you have to act according to the time, press the siren to notify Mars, and shut down the network-"

Joad sighed, his ears were almost deafened by Lu Xing: "Understood." He said impatiently.

Lu Xing seemed to be accustomed to his reaction: "You are the same as the four-kilometer connector. I called just now and reminded him that I will call him today to make him act, and after telling him about it again, his tone was the same as Same as yours. Well, I'm going to hang up now—”

There was a sound of opening the door from behind.Zhang Luotuo turned her head away, Zheng Zheng yawned and walked out of her room.

"What are you doing?" she asked, looking sleepy.She looks the same as usual, but obviously, if you look closely, you will see that she is slightly different from usual. She is wearing a jacket, a pair of baggy trousers, and there seems to be something in the pocket of the clothes. Zhang Luotuo is very clear, he has seen that gun many times, so that the description of that gun is very familiar.

"Don't worry, I haven't reloaded yet. I will start reloading after nine o'clock." Zheng Zheng noticed his gaze and replied slowly.

At seven o'clock in the morning, September [-]rd, they began to prepare breakfast, but neither of them had any appetite, and another feeling overlaid the hunger, which felt almost like hunger and thirst.Zhang Luotuo played with the signal receiver in his hand, and looked at the signal lights on it that had not yet produced any colors. He knew that once he pressed this in his hand, it meant that the power system had been successfully cracked. This is very important. It is their connection. arms.

Joad didn't eat either. He stopped after drinking half a glass of water. Now he walked to Ah Mei's side, and prepared to remove it from the radio according to Ah Mei's request and insert it into the artificial navigator of the spacecraft. Go, set off with them, and escape the city.

"The newest weapon is the mind."

"It is not mines that are buried in the ground, but the past."

Ah Mei chanted it over and over again, as if he was reading his own book of decisive battle.

When Joad approached it, its voice especially decreased, and the sound of electric current kept increasing like a defense, it was very scared.

"I know that feeling, like a sudden loss of consciousness," it said tremblingly, just as Joad put his hand on the radio and opened the chip entry port.Joad stopped, waiting for it to calm down.

"If only I had hands, so I could cover myself," it muttered, "Come on, stupid boss, get me off the radio." Joad waited for him to finish, and tapped the radio .He turned off the play button of the radio, and snapped off the chip, that is, the body of Ah Coal.Brush pull.There was no sound for a moment.

September [-]rd, eight o'clock in the morning.They were standing in front of the dining table, no one was eating anymore.Qiao De and Zhang Luotuo faced each other and sat silently. Zhang Luotuo squinted his eyes and looked at the electronic watch on the wall. The quiet green pointer moved slowly, constantly changing from second to second.It's time for Qiao De and Zheng Zheng to leave, and go to work as usual according to the planned time. Of course, this is by no means just going to work, Zhang Luotuo knows it well.This is a plan, and going to work is just an excuse for them, and after today, everything will be different.Think of that old world saying right now: the calm before the storm.

"It's the first time I go to work so happily." Zheng Zheng said thoughtfully, chewing gum, and made a "bye" gesture to Zhang Luotuo. After she put on her shoes, she gently kicked the floor with her feet Stepped on it, walked out the door like drunk.

Mao Mao flew into Zhang Luotuo's sweater pocket early in the morning, watching from the sidelines, it stretched out its furry chest, full of courage.

Joad waited a while before leaving.He said goodbye to Zhang Luotuo, they looked at each other, then Zhang Luotuo walked up and hugged Joad, he took a deep breath in Joad's arms, he had never felt that Joad's embrace was so disturbing.Then they let go of their arms, and Joad went to the door.

"Wait for my signal." He looked at him with gray eyes, said succinctly, and then gently held Zhang Luotuo's hand.

Zhang Luotuo pinched Joad's fingers.knew.He mouthed Joad and looked at Joad without blinking.He hoped that Joad would understand, and Joad would definitely understand that he was not afraid of anything now.In those gray eyes he saw the feathery words, the light of the overheated sun that didn't belong to Chongqing, Joad himself, Joad himself, Joad's words, everything about Joad.He read from it, and was soothed, even kissed, by the soft gray eyes.

Joad went out, and the sound of the door closing sounded like the departure of a spaceship.The elevator outside the door rang and ran, and Joad pressed the down button.

Squeak——As the elevator slides, Zhang Luotuo seems to be able to see the red LED light up.

"Floor 21." The elevator prompt sounded far away.Zhang Luotuo heard it gradually go away.

Then there was an eerie silence.The room was silent for a moment like a virtual space, not even willing to flood the Internet.

Zhang Luotuo sat on the red sofa, hugging Maomao.They are all gone.Qiao De, Zheng Zheng and Lu Xing, they became part of the chess game according to the plan, they went out to the company at this time, and quietly started the first step.

Zhang Luotuo lowered his head and looked at the signal device on his wrist. The signal lights on it remained silent and completely black.

According to the plan, he now has to wait for the red signal light from Joad, which symbolizes the disconnection of the network.He has nothing but waiting.

He took a deep breath nervously.

are you ready?Zhang Luotuo took a deep breath and asked himself, over and over again, listening to the time fly by.

He is ready.He replied in his heart, firmly.

September [-]rd, nine o'clock in the morning.

Zhang Luotuo waited for an hour, but nothing happened.At first he was a little nervous, but gradually he found that high mental tension made him mentally exhausted, which was not good for action.So he turned on the TV, let himself relax, and watched some boring TV series.It's about love and war.He glanced at them falsely, then looked down at the signal light on his wrist lightly.

It's only nine o'clock.He knew there would be no movement, but he still couldn't help but look at it.He buried his head in the pink fur of Momo, knowing that it was his only reliance at this moment.He stayed up for another 15 minutes, and finally couldn't bear the boredom of the plot, so he changed the channel.This time it's a cowboy western, the oldest trick, mixed with Chinese martial arts and Japanese swordsmanship.He stared blindly at the TV, leaned back, and gently closed his eyes.

I don't know how they are now?he thinks.
