Do androids dream of the sun?

Black stopped and looked down at Lu Xiang who was sitting under the wall. She closed her eyes tightly, as if she was asleep. The blanket she was wearing was soaked in rainwater and slipped in the middle of the sand.

"It's so pitiful," he said indifferently, "I clearly reminded her that she shouldn't trust those guys."

Lu Nian didn't answer in silence, and moved the umbrella a little towards him to cover the white cloth wound on Black's shoulder, preventing the rain from splashing on it.

Blake didn't take his injury seriously at first, but because he couldn't resist Lu Nian, he let his subordinates go ahead, went back to the village to bandage himself, and brought some "good things" to those guys by the way.

It's just that he didn't expect that there would be new gains along the way.

"Go and search," Black took the umbrella from Lu Nian's hand and raised his chin slightly, "Maybe we can find something of value."

Lu Nian stepped forward, squatted beside Lu Xiang, and flipped through her pockets.In fact, Lu Xiang didn’t have many things left on him, most of them were left behind on the way to Area D. The most valuable signal was given to Zhong Ziyang. After searching all over his body, he only found a piece of glass candy wrapper and a few packets of biscuits. It was still Lu Nian. for them.

She put the biscuit aside and carefully looked at the colorful candy paper, feeling an indescribable familiarity.Lu Nian leaned closer and sniffed lightly. There was still a peach-flavored fragrance on it. The smell was not strong, but it was refreshing. She felt a little novel, so she licked the candy wrapper. The tip of her tongue tasted the long-lost sweetness, and she couldn't help but be taken aback.

Seeing this, Blake leaned forward and asked, "What did you find?"

Lu Nian subconsciously put the candy wrappers in his pocket, and shrugged at Black, expressing that there was nothing to gain.She was about to stand up when Blake said, "What's on her neck?"

She looked at Lu Xiang's neck, where a little silver light leaked out, and the rest was covered under the collar of the windbreaker.Lu Nian pulled it out, and the translucent stone fell into the palm of her hand. Several pictures hidden deep in her memory flashed out of her mind. The bright red marks.

Black frowned. He thought it was just a coincidence that Lu Xiang and Lu Nian looked alike, but he didn't expect that she also had such a necklace. Alarm bells rang in his heart, and he quickly lowered his head to look at Lu Nian.The latter's face was already as pale as paper, and he was staring at the translucent stone, as if he wanted to stare out a hole in it.

"Lu Nian!" Black threw the umbrella away, finally pulled the stone out of Lu Nian's hand, and pulled her away one meter away, "What's wrong with you?!"

Lu Nian's eyes were lax, and he clutched Black's clothes tightly, as if he wanted to say something to him.Blake tore off her mask, exposing the scarred lower half of her face to the air. She breathed heavily and silently repeated the same word: "Drug..."

"No, no!" Black resolutely vetoed, "You've already exceeded your food intake this month!"

As if she didn't hear what he said, Lu Nian struggled to find a bottle, opened the lid with trembling hands and was about to pour it into her mouth, but before Black could stop her, she had already poured those white balls into her mouth.

The moment when he was shot just now was not as helpless as it is now, Black hugged Lu Nian's shoulder tightly, and shouted: "Are you going to forget me too, Lu Nian?!"

Lu Nian didn't answer, and fell powerlessly on the ground with his head up.The cold drizzle fell on her cheeks and hair, condensing into drops like broken diamonds.

The drizzle became heavier and heavier, turning into light rain, and the dense fog finally dissipated a little. Although the surroundings were still a bit hazy, it was much better than the previous situation where people and animals were separated from each other five meters away.

Du Ningqi wiped the rain off his face helplessly: "The weather here is too bad."

"F District is full of this kind of ghost weather." Aaron couldn't help complaining, "It can be foggy or rainy for thirteen months a year."

"You seem to be very familiar with Area F." Du Ning raised his eyebrows and looked at him with a half-smile, "It was the same before. How do you know that Black's village is underground?"

Aaron's heart skipped a beat: "Oh...I did some research on purpose before, but I didn't expect it to be useful." He laughed, glanced at the gray sky, and changed the topic, "This It's raining harder and harder, do you want to hide?"

They drove for a long time, but they didn't see many villagers or pursuers along the way. Based on the time when Black brought them into the village, it is estimated that they had already left Black's territory, and they were not far from the green dot that Lu Xiang had marked before. Far.

They've just sent out the flares.There were no fireworks, no high-pitched whistles, no strange smoke, just a single red light that kept blinking.A few of them took turns to study it for a while, and they could only confirm that it was probably equivalent to a locator.

Zhong Ziyang looked down at the map, and was not sure whether Black would chase after regardless of the boundaries of the territory. He was more inclined to go to the green point first, and then find a place to rest, while waiting for the people from Delos to pick him up.However, he was still deliberating on the other side, and the rain on this side suddenly became heavier, pouring down for a while, and instantly drenched them into four soaked chickens. The rain was so thick that they couldn't even walk.

Xiao Le moved the coat covering Zhong Ziyang's head to Zhong Ziyang's head, and made a decision for him: "Go and hide."

They found an old house nearby, it was a bit dilapidated, but at least it had doors, windows and a roof to keep out the wind and rain.Du Ningqi found some wooden boards that had not been dampened from the corner, and used the old method he had learned before to light a fire in the center of the room. It was not that cold after all.

Zhong Ziyang took off his coat and put it aside to dry, sat near the fire, staring at the signal flare that Lu wanted to send, and kept rubbing the symbols near the button with his fingertips.

Xiao Le walked to his side, silently took out a candy from the box he carried with him, and pressed it to Zhong Ziyang's lips as usual.Zhong Ziyang subconsciously ate it, his mouth was full of sweetness, and he came back to his senses: "Thank you."

"Don't be sad." Xiao Le stretched out his fingers, suppressed the blunt smile on his lips, and sat down beside him, "Even if we took her away, she couldn't last long."

"I know." Zhong Ziyang sighed, "Her recent situation is not optimistic."

Lu Xiang's recent abnormalities are obvious to all, and they probably guessed the reason. They thought they could at least send her home, but they didn't expect the accident to come one step sooner.

Xiao Le was silent for a moment: "Do all these experiments...have such serious sequelae?"

"Mostly. It's not particularly serious, but the level of medical treatment outside D area is very bad, and they can't afford to pay for treatment." Zhong Ziyang sighed, "If it is placed in A area, Lu will think The sequelae are nothing at all, Lu Nian is a little more troublesome, but it's not a big problem."

"That's right," Du Ningqi answered him, "but in my opinion, Lu Nian's amnesia has nothing to do with those experiments."

Zhong Ziyang looked at him puzzled: "Why?"

"Memory surgery is highly specialized, and the equipment is not only expensive, but also requires a huge amount of space. Ordinary underground laboratories simply don't have the ability to afford such a high cost." Du Ning said, "Besides, the supply of talents in this field is in short supply. But anyone who knows a little goes to District A and wants to make a name for himself, who would be willing to live in a small laboratory in the lower city?"

"Then if it's..." Zhong Ziyang glanced at Aaron, and selectively concealed Lance's name, "Is it a laboratory built by a rich and powerful person in private?"

"The one you rescued Lu Xiang? I've read all the documents you copied, and I didn't see this kind of operation in the report." Du Ning paused, and then said, "But you can't say anything, if It's a side effect of a drug or something, and it's not impossible..."

Zhong Ziyang always felt that something was wrong, but this was not his specialty after all, and he couldn't find anything to refute, so he nodded thoughtfully.

"I think you guys are really free." Aaron came over with four nutrient potions, threw them to the others, picked up the iron hook on the side and poked them into the fire, next to Duning. Qi sat down and opened the nutrient supplement and said, "It is impossible for Lu Nian to abandon Blake and return to Delos, nor will he return to Area A to treat her sequelae. Why haven't the people here for so long?"

Anyway, they will never see Lu Nian again in the future, and it is not unreasonable for Aaron to say so.Zhong Ziyang shrugged slightly, skipped this topic consciously, reached out and took a look at the cylinder, the red light was still blinking, he couldn't tell what was going on, the only way was to continue to wait.Fortunately, they stayed here for so long, and there was still silence outside, with no pursuers. Perhaps Black really gave up.

Zhong Ziyang let out a foul breath, everything that happened in this short half day was several times more thrilling than his previous half life.Counting it down, this is the first time he has experienced a life-and-death escape after a fight, and it is only after he relaxes that he feels extremely tired.

Xiao Le had just finished eating his nutritional supplements, when his shoulders suddenly became heavy, and when he turned his head, he found that Zhong Ziyang was leaning on his shoulders, with half of a plastic tube in his mouth, and he said, "Let me rely on you..."

Before he finished speaking, he fell asleep.

The heart is quite big.

Xiao Le couldn't help smiling, took off the half-eaten nutrient in Zhong Ziyang's mouth, pulled a coat and put it on him.He thought for a while, put his arms around his back, and took advantage of the rare opportunity to stroke the soft hair on the back of his head with his fingertips. After stroking one side, he went to fiddle with the broken hair on the side of his temples, just like stroking a cat. Zhong Ziyang also hummed twice in a particularly cooperative manner.

After touching enough books, Xiao Le withdrew his hand contentedly, but when he looked up, he saw the two people on the other side of the fire looking at him with strange eyes.

Xiao Le frowned: "???"

Du Ningqi was thin-skinned. After being caught, he immediately turned his eyes away. Seeing that Aaron was still staring there, he quickly turned his face back and whispered: "Don't look!"

"Oh." Aaron's face was pinched and deformed, and he didn't resist, looking at Du Ningqi and blinking, "Do you want to sleep for a while?"

Du Ningqi was taken aback: "No, I'm not sleepy."

"I'm a little sleepy." Aaron's eyes were burning, "Can I borrow your shoulder?"

"No..." Before Du Ningqi could finish his refusal, Aaron said again: "Only 10 minutes!"

"Keep your voice down!" Du Ningqi looked towards the opposite side, Zhong Ziyang was fast asleep, Xiao Le was lowering his eyes, no one was looking at him at all.He turned his face away and touched the tip of his nose: "It's up to you."

Aaron was overjoyed, put his arms around Du Ningqi's shoulders, and almost wrapped him in his arms.Du Ningqi was a little embarrassed, wanted to struggle, but suddenly remembered what Lu Xiang said, he pursed his lips, and slowly relaxed his stiff body silently.

"Aaron," Du Ningqi said in a low voice, "when we get to Delos, let's find time to have a good talk."

Aaron rubbed his chin on his shoulder: "Okay.

Xiao Le raised his eyelids, glanced at those two people, thought for a moment, and imitated his hand on Zhong Ziyang's shoulder.Unexpectedly, as soon as he put it on, Zhong Ziyang, who had been closing his eyes, suddenly said, "Xiao Le."

"..." Xiao Le was taken aback, but his face remained motionless, as if I hugged him and hugged me, what do you think of me, he said calmly, "Well, didn't you fall asleep? ?”

"Sleeping for a while," Zhong Ziyang rubbed his shoulder, "Xiao Le, after arriving in Delos, shall we have a chat?"

"What are you talking about?"

"Talk about... your sugar bowl."

"Huh?" Xiao Le looked at him sideways, "What's wrong with it?"

"You're too slow to fill in, I can't wait." Zhong Ziyang complained with his eyes closed, he paused, and whispered in Xiao Le's ear, "So, so can we be together first... Slow down Slowly fill it up?"

Xiao Le was silent for a moment, then suddenly pulled up Zhong Ziyang's coat, blocking the dazzling fire and most of the light from the outside world, only the breathing of him and Zhong Ziyang could be heard in the dimness.

"can."

After he finished speaking softly, he lowered his head and kissed Zhong Ziyang's lips.
