Then she picked one up and looked inside, and this look stunned her completely.

Wow! This...this kaleidoscope is so beautiful! It's like a window into another fantasy world, making you feel like you're in a wonderland full of gorgeous magic.

Every time you turn or move it slightly, it will reveal completely different light and shadows and wonderful patterns, which interweave and blend with each other to form breathtaking pictures.

The lights and shadows sometimes sparkle with dazzling light, and sometimes change into soft tones; and those wonderful patterns are like elves dancing and fairies dancing.

Such a beautiful sight is simply intoxicating. It seems that if you gaze at it long enough, you will be drawn into that mysterious world and go on an adventure.

Then she looked at the other two, which, although with slightly different patterns and colors, were equally a visual feast for her.

After looking at them for a long time, He Xiaobei couldn't let them go and put them into the study, then got up and walked out of the bathtub.

Now the water-based ability has naturally integrated into her life. For example, the moment she steps out of the bathtub, the water droplets flowing on her hair and body disappear.

After leaving the space, I took out the pot and put it on the stove, preparing to eat the tendon and pork hotpot that I had packed before tonight.

Although it was still hot when she took it out of the space, she still wanted to add some side dishes to it. The pot of meat that she couldn't finish before was now not enough for her.

While the food was cooking in the pot, she used the space to take out the safe that she had stolen from the airplane boss before.

This safe was harder to open than the previous ones. It took He Xiaobei a full five minutes to pry it open.

She opened the door of the safe and looked at the things inside. She couldn't help but smack her lips:

The contents of this domineering boss's safes are surprisingly consistent, with the usual three things: a pistol, documents, and gold bars. I can't say I'm a little disappointed, but there are definitely no surprises at all.

She also discovered that real bosses particularly like to live on the top floor. Is it because they are unwilling to be inferior to others?

Then she hopes that these domineering bosses will be the same in bed and never be inferior to others, hahahahahaha.

After eating a whole pot of meat and vegetables, she took out a birthday cake, put on her birthday hat, lit the birthday candles, put her hands together, closed her eyes, and began to make a wish to the cake:

"I hope I will be safe and sound in the new year, and I hope Lao He will be safe and sound too."

Then she opened her eyes and blew out the candle. She did not cut the cake immediately, but looked at the cake in a daze.

She missed Lao He a little. Lao He went to jail when she was very young. In the end, Lao He was serving his sentence in the capital, and it was life imprisonment.

In a prosperous society, this meant that Old He had no future, so Yu Cuicui never took He Xiaobei to see him.

She didn't even know where Lao He was serving his sentence. When she grew up, she asked Yu Cuicui about it, but she guessed that Yu Cuicui herself had forgotten it, or didn't want to mention it, so she scolded her angrily.

So even if she meets Lao He now, she actually doesn't know how to face him. After all, people will change over the years.

She didn't know what her father had become. During the years she lived alone, the word "father" was just a word to her.

After eating and drinking her fill, He Xiaobei lay down directly in bed. She thought that there were still ten days before the New Year, so she could still go out and collect some supplies.

If only she could go to the trading market again after collecting supplies, after all, according to our custom, we should rest for a while after the New Year. Thinking of this, she fell asleep.

After getting up in the morning, I cleaned up and ate three fried dough sticks, a bowl of millet porridge and five tea eggs before I felt comfortable and ready to go out.

He took out the various clothes he had bought for Lightning before, and also took out two of the thermostatic clothes he had bought before. He laid the two pieces of clothing together and started cutting.

Then I sewed the cut-off thermostatic fabric to the lining of the previous dress, and even stuffed a layer of thermostatic fabric into the cute little shoes.

Lightning ran around the house happily in his new clothes, but when he walked in the little shoes for the first time, his posture was very strange, and it took him a long time to adjust.

This time, He Xiaobei didn't hold Lightning in his arms, but let it follow him down the stairs.

After leaving the corridor, Lightning seemed extremely excited. He galloped freely in the snow and had fun for a long time before running back towards He Xiaobei, wagging his tail.

He took out the car, opened the door, and let Lightning jump in. Then she sat in the driver's seat, started the car and drove off.

This time she didn't plan a route. She planned to search wherever she went and come back before the next trading market opened.

After leaving the city, she first arrived at an industrial park. She was not in a hurry and slowly searched for all the supplies she could find. Lightning was on guard around her.

The man and the cat eat when they are hungry, rest when they are tired, and find a place sheltered from the wind and take out the RV to rest at night.

She gained a lot along the way. Occasionally, she would meet some people. She would just hide and watch quietly. It was okay to watch the fun, but there was no need to socialize.

It was not until the fifth day, when she was planning to search a villa area, that she discovered that the villa area had been occupied by quite a few people.

He Xiaobei found a high place, took out a telescope and began to observe. After observation, she found that there were quite a few people inside, about three to five hundred people.

The outside of the community has been surrounded by barbed wire and wooden fences by these people, and there are people patrolling. It can be regarded as a small private gathering place.

After watching for a while, she finally understood. Yes, even the desires of people in the last days are endless.

As the saying goes, when people are hungry, they have only one desire, but when they are full, they have countless desires.

The most pressing of these desires is the desire for power. When society falls into chaos and loses its original order, the power held by those in high positions will become unprecedentedly great.

They can even arbitrarily deprive others of their precious lives. In such a turbulent environment, power has become a coveted yet extremely dangerous double-edged sword. It can allow people to call the shots and control everything, but it can also plunge people into an abyss of no return.

The reasons why they came here were probably very simple: sex, food, power, fear, and perhaps revenge. They certainly knew about the existence of a large base, but they still chose to come here for those illusory things. Perhaps some of them did not join voluntarily, but who cares?

The authorities must be aware of such an obvious gathering place. As for why they don't come to eliminate or manage it, the reason is very simple. No matter how big the base is, it cannot accommodate the population of so many surrounding cities. I guess the authorities are also happy to see these small bases.

After looking for a while, she put away the telescope and turned to leave. As she walked, she began to think about the issue of going to the base. In her previous life, the base was very chaotic at the beginning, and there was even a large-scale riot. Although it was suppressed in the end, many people died.
