Survivor's Guide to Survival

Chapter 2 Birds and Boats

Nine Heavens Island in the South China Sea, outside the Cangqiong Base.

"Colonel Ning, pay attention to safety on the road," the gray-haired old doctor sent the young man outside the door, and said to him with a smile, "After the things are handed over to Old Xu, you can apply to be transferred to the general department." The old doctor's eyes With a little regret, he sighed and patted the young man's shoulder: "This time, I don't know when we will see you again."

The young man has well-defined facial features. Hearing the old doctor's words, the indifference in his eyes melted slightly, revealing a trace of warmth.He saluted the old doctor: "I promise to complete the task. Dr. Zhang, take care."

Several people said goodbye and watched the young man close the car door.The off-road vehicle drove away from the sky base quickly.

The old doctor stood there reluctantly and looked at it for a while, then turned around and walked in slowly: "If it is the same as the one that Old Xu has in hand, it will really cause a sensation..."

At the same time, in a laboratory at the base, an open box was quietly placed in the center of the table. There was a small recessed groove on each side of the inner wall of the box, which looked indescribably weird.The box is connected by several wires to the instrument next to the table, and the young researcher is carefully manipulating the button to remove one of the wires.

The researcher meditated on the position of the button and the adjustment of the threshold value. Just before the last step, another researcher who was sitting next to her and adjusting the lens suddenly stood up and rushed straight to the table, regardless of the number of catheters still connected to the table. , reached out to pick up the box in the middle, and roughly pulled down all the catheters.

"Chang Fei, are you crazy?!" The researcher who witnessed all this looked at his colleague's actions in astonishment, stood up and wanted to snatch the box from him.

The man named Chang Fei held the box tightly in his hand, and his fingers seemed to be chaotically pressing the grooves on each side of the box a few times. A white light shot out of the box and projected straight on the wall. , a series of numbers are displayed on the wall——0:05:59

In the blink of an eye, that 59 jumped to 58, and it was slowly going backwards.It turned out to be a series of countdowns.

Chang Fei laughed and watched the countdown, put down the box dancing and screaming, "I'm the lucky one! I'm the lucky one!"

Another researcher screamed out of fright at the sudden change. She ran around the room several times in a panic before finding the door, and pressed the red button next to the doorknob with trembling hands. The bell rang loudly.

Several other researchers who came in a hurry came in and saw that they were also stunned by the big countdown on the wall. They forgot their words for a while. In the whole laboratory, only Chang Fei, who suddenly went crazy, was still clapping his hands cheerfully: " I am the lucky one!"

Just when the time finally reached 0:00:00, the box suddenly made a "didi" sound.Then, two lines of Chinese characters suddenly appeared on the screen of the instrument that had been displayed as a snowflake due to a catheter failure.Several researchers present all looked up at the screen, and one of them involuntarily read the content on the screen.

— Only those lucky enough to be survivors.

— Are you lucky enough?

At the same time, in the pharmacy outside Nancheng University City, Huo Yizhou, who was waiting in line for the checkout, felt his phone vibrate. Then he looked down and found a message with an unknown number.He opened it casually, and two lines of text appeared on the screen.

"Only those who are lucky enough can be survivors. Are you lucky enough?" Huo Yizhou suddenly turned his head to look at Guo Lu who was standing behind him. news.

It turned out that Guo Lu also received an identical text message.

After Guo Lu finished reading the text message, he looked up and found that Huo Yizhou was looking at him, and rubbed his nose in embarrassment: "The content of this text message is quite boring, a bit like the kind of advertising spam text that induces you to buy super big ones." Huo Yizhou didn't answer, He just silently handed his mobile phone to Guo Lu, motioning him to look at his mobile phone screen.

Guo Lu took over the phone and looked at it, suddenly said: "Oh - I see, this is a group message sent by a fake base station, right?" Classmates who read text messages with their heads down.

As a college student at Nancheng University, I receive at least three or four pieces of information from the fake base station a day.So this strange text message with an unknown number was quickly forgotten by the two of them.

There seemed to be a lot of people coming to the pharmacy today. Huo Yizhou waited in line for a long time before it was his turn to pay. While tapping on Alipay with his mobile phone, he heard the part-time student at the cash register muttering: "It's strange, why so many people have caught colds recently? ah?"

The boss sitting next to him probably heard the complaint, smiled and said to her: "Little girl, you have no life experience, right? March and April are when the flu virus is most likely to breed, and our store catches a cold every year. The medicine has to go in several waves."

"Really?" The part-time girl's eyes widened, "Then I'll buy some medicine when I get off work, so as to prevent problems before they happen."

"That's right," the boss cheerfully took out a few more packs of banlangen from the counter and threw them to the young man who just came in, then turned his head and said to the girl, "Let's call it winning a lottery even if we have a cold at this time, it's a reward from God , you can’t accept it!”

"Then it seems that today is the peak period for winning lottery tickets..." Guo Lu was standing next to the counter, listening to the conversation between the two, and quietly complained to Huo Yizhou, "Go back and buy a lottery ticket, I have a hunch that the next lottery 500 million is mine."

Huo Yizhou took the plastic bag, turned around and walked towards the door of the pharmacy: "Don't be poor, go back, you have to do your homework later."

"Oh, okay," Guo Lu followed suit, "Hey, Comrade Xiaozhou, when are you going to the Baishao Research Institute?"

Huo Yizhou walked quickly carrying the plastic bag: "Next Tuesday, the research institute is closed every Tuesday, and I can't disturb it on weekdays."

Just after Huo Yizhou finished speaking, Guo Lu sneezed.He blew his nose, and there was a little joy in his eyes: "Wow, this trip to the pharmacy is really wonderful! Fortunately, I bought cold medicine in advance, otherwise I have to wait in line again now!" Said So, this time it was him urging Huo Yizhou: "Brother, hurry back to the dormitory, I'm going to take cold medicine too!"

The male dormitory of the Department of Astronomy is in the innermost building of the school dormitory area. The two of them walked for a while to get there, and it took them another 5 minutes to climb up to the sixth floor. I searched all the pockets on my body but couldn't find my dormitory key.

"It's strange, I clearly remember that I put the key in the right trouser pocket when I went out..." Guo Lu touched the empty trouser pocket with a puzzled expression, "Why did it suddenly disappear now?"

Huo Yizhou took out the key of Guo Lu's dormitory from his drawer without any surprise, walked to the opposite side and opened the door: "Don't take the key to go out in the future, even if you go on like this, you will be defeated sooner or later even if you have a hundred keys. "

Guo Lu smiled embarrassedly, but his face was no longer red: "Xiaozhou, I really love you to death!"

"Stop," Huo Yizhou made a gesture of clasping his fists, signaling the straight gay man not to be gay, "I have someone I like, you should continue to like those goddesses in your hard drive."

"Who? Or your mosaic brother?" Guo Lu glanced at Huo Yizhou's phone screen without being too curious.

Huo Yizhou calmly put the phone behind him, stretched out his hand and pushed the man out of his bedroom: "He has a name, his name is Ning Xiao, not Brother Mosaic."

"OKOK, Brother Ning Xiao," Seeing that Huo Yizhou was still protecting him, Guo Lu immediately changed his words, and added another word, "When will I meet this big brother who only knows his name but doesn't know him? I'm really curious, you are a grass in our astronomy department anyway, why did you hang yourself on this little-known tree before entering school?"

——Huo Yizhou also caused a small sensation when he was in school. The photo of a handsome young man in a white shirt dragging a suitcase and standing under the shade of a tree was posted on the official blog of Nancheng University. Thousands of retweets, many girls came to watch this national junior, and some even confessed their love on the spot.

In the end, this little brother Huo Yizhou was even cooler. He simply posted "Sorry, I have someone I like" on the door of the dormitory, so that Guo Lu, who had just come to a big city and had never seen the world, made up his mind on the spot. A cool guy who will be a good friend for life.

After Huo Yizhou entered school, he acted extremely low-key. He neither participated in various student organizations nor participated in student organization's big and small activities and competitions, so the popularity of the national junior juniors quickly went down.Soon, Guo Lu got his wish and quickly became the only official official friend of this weird handsome Huo.

It was a long time before the official designated only friend found out that the person Huo Yizhou liked was actually a man.

And from Huo Yizhou's mouth, Guo Lu learned that this man's name is Ning Xiao, a mysterious man with great skills. He grew up with Huo Yizhou in Nancheng Welfare Institute, and he is 5 years older than Huo Yizhou.And Huo Yizhou's cell phone wallpaper is the photo of Ning Xiao that he secretly took a long time ago.

Hearing Guo Lu express his desire to see Ning Xiao again, Huo Yizhou mercilessly pushed him into his dormitory, and helped him close the door of the dormitory: "I will see you if there is a chance."

The opposite door slammed shut, Huo Yizhou turned back to his dormitory, took several sips of warm water to calm himself down.

He soaked a pack of Ganmaoqing in warm water, watched the granular medicine gradually dissolve in the water, but unconsciously pursed the corners of his mouth.

If there is a chance, I really miss Brother Xiao. I haven't seen Brother Xiao for nearly three years.

The man left in a hurry, and I haven't even shown him the admission letter from the university yet.

Huo Yizhou originally planned to finish the homework assigned by the professor in yesterday's class while there was no class in the afternoon, but after taking a cup of cold medicine, his brain immediately became groggy.He stared at the homework for a while, and found that he couldn't concentrate, so he simply gave up thinking and decided to go to sleep first and then get up to do homework.

Climbing onto the bed with his mobile phone in his hand, Huo Yizhou used his last willpower to change into pajamas and wrap himself in the quilt. With muscle memory, he opened the lock screen and set the alarm clock three hours later. Then, he clicked on WeChat and found the top name The chat box of the person from "Asuka" sent a voice message to the opposite side.

Xiao Zhou: "Brother Owl, good night."

Like countless others before, this is a message that received no response.
