*Hi! Want to check in?*
In the year 2XXX, a meteor falls, the zombie virus rages, soil and water sources are polluted, the climate is abnormally reversed, and humanity's homeland is slowl...
"Jiang Xiao? What's the matter?" Shi Jiu was a little surprised by this regular customer. It seemed that he had something urgent to deal with.
Yesterday she sensed her special ability again, and after thinking about it for a long time, she still felt that something was wrong.
When she activated her supernatural powers for the first time, she saw two strange images in succession. One was Zhao Jin, and the other was Butler Qin. Both of the images she foresaw were so bizarre that she had no clue what they were.
The second time I watched it, I saw the gang's escapee outdoors. The images were dark and eerie, and perhaps they could be considered to be about that person.
But this time, even though she didn't see anyone, her ability still allowed her to see the appearance of people in the picture, and even the entire process. In the end, she solved the problem with the method on the picture, but a feeling of uneasiness kept hanging over her.
Later, she communicated with Chen Hua and others and decided to talk to the boss about this matter.
But she clearly remembered the scene of seeing Zhao Jin, who was stuck with countless tubes and whose life or death was unknown. She subconsciously wanted to avoid the crowd and talk alone.
"Boss, I want to..." She turned around and looked at the scene. Seeing only her and her boss, she felt relieved. "I want to tell you something special. It's about my special ability."
Shi Jiu noticed her uneasiness and said, "Come, follow me into my office." Then he led her into her new office and poured her a glass of warm water.
"Is there something wrong with your ability?" Shi Jiu had some guesses, such as whether the ability could be upgraded? Or if there were any physical effects?
As a result, she gave a big surprise as soon as she opened her mouth.
"My ability should be to predict the future." She couldn't help but tighten her grip on the cup, worried that her boss wouldn't believe her. "I've seen the vision several times."
Shi Jiu was very surprised to hear her words. Predicting the future, is there such a supernatural power?
At this time, 001 jumped out.
"Host, predicting the future is a form of mental power, probably an enhanced version of the sixth sense. It allows one to see the future of certain people, but it's usually only seen by those close to you or those who have a significant influence on you. This ability isn't a big deal, but it's not a small one either."
After listening to 001's explanation, Shi Jiu understood. Looking at Jiang Xiao's somewhat uneasy expression, he thought she had seen something bad. In the end times, anything could happen.
"This ability is a bit magical. Did you see something bad and want to come to me to talk about it?" Shi Jiu was a little curious why he came to her.
"It's not entirely a confession, because I saw a scene of Butler Qin before, and I never really understood it, so I didn't say it. But yesterday I saw the person who might be blocking the key hub with zombies. Before that, I accidentally saw the gang member who escaped. Putting it together, I think there's something big going on, so I came to find you."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Shi Jiu with eyes full of trust, "After all, Boss, you are the best person I have ever met in the apocalypse."
Shi Jiu felt a little embarrassed after hearing this evaluation. She was only able to help them here with the help of the system.
"Don't say that. What did you see in the picture before?" Shi Jiu asked. It sounded like there was a story behind it, and it didn't seem like he was scared.
Jiang Xiao recalled and recounted the scenes she had seen.
"The first time I saw Zhao Jin was when she was trapped in a container filled with green solution. She had a lot of tubes plugging her body and her eyes were tightly closed. I was shocked when I came to my senses and thought it was just an illusion. But when I was walking back after the examination, I accidentally saw Butler Qin, and I saw it again..."
Speaking of this, she thought of the devastated land again.
When Shi Jiu heard this, his curiosity was aroused, "What does he look like in the picture?" No way, is Xiao Qin so miserable, just like Zhao Jin?
"I saw the picture after I saw Butler Qin, but there was no one in his picture. It was just a large expanse of land that was blindingly red. There was a strange sense of desolation."
Jiang Xiao initially thought she had misjudged the person, but the only outsider she had seen during that time was Butler Qin.
She later tried with Chen Hua and Li Xia, but no matter how she looked at them, they didn't react. She once suspected that her special ability had failed.
But later when he was on a mission, the superpower appeared again.
"Later, didn't we accept the mission and go on a mission with you, boss? When we left, I also saw the person who escaped. My passive ability was triggered, and I saw his image." Jiang Xiao tried hard to recall and organize his words.
"That person's image is even more distressing. The upper part is his upper body, and all you can see clearly is a pair of terrifying red eyes. There seem to be many figures around him, but nothing can be seen clearly. The lower part is a blood-red color, and there are many other figures. When I woke up, didn't I come to you to ask if that gang had other bases and was still doing bad things? I was just worried..."
Speaking of this, Shi Jiu also remembered that she had issued a task before, but no one came to claim it, so there was probably no news.
Later, she felt that this was inappropriate, so she asked Yan Yue, who came later, to investigate secretly. Now she doesn't know if there is any news.
"I've been following that incident as well. I hope to find that lone guy as soon as possible. What about yesterday? What did you see?"
"I saw it unexpectedly yesterday. I had participated in the second activity before, so I went there quite late. As soon as I looked towards the group of zombies, the image automatically appeared. There was no sign at all. In the image, I saw a man in a black robe paint a totem-like pattern in a certain area. Countless zombies were attracted to it. After he washed it off on the spot, he no longer attracted the zombies, so they immediately attacked him."
"I saw this method and told them, and that's why the zombies were eliminated so quickly."
Shi Jiu was a little surprised when he heard the last scene. "Didn't you say you could predict the future? Why can you see the behavior of the people in the picture? Could it be..."
Jiang Xiao, who was originally just a little annoyed by seeing these scenes, immediately understood what Shi Jiu meant.
"This... is something that will happen in the future? Will someone gather these zombies together again like this?" Jiang Xiao said in disbelief.
The place they went to happened to be the footpath of the two cities. Could it be that other intersections in City B were also surrounded by so many zombies during this period?
City B is quite special. Several of the intersections are quite far away. They completed Mission 2 within the city. Generally, there are fewer people in the suburbs, more zombies, and many other mutated animals and plants. They don't want to take the risk, so most people did not leave the general area.
Shi Jiu thought of the dried meat from before, and there might be some connection here.
After she finished speaking, Jiang Xiao's psychological pressure was greatly reduced. Realizing the uniqueness of her abilities, she rarely left the villa. If she hadn't been with the team for yesterday's activities, she would have been a little worried about her own safety.
Shi Jiu also thought of her special ability, and she was quite sensitive in predicting the future. Who wouldn't want this apocalypse to pass quickly?
"You haven't told anyone about this ability, right?" If it gets out of hand, it will be troublesome, and all kinds of weird thoughts will pop up.
Jiang Xiao quickly shook his head, "At first, I only told the captain and the others, and later I specifically explained the situation. They wouldn't tell anyone else."
"Then you should be careful. If you can still see the images, come to me. I will also try my best to find clues and try to dig them out as soon as possible."
There might be some big conspiracy behind this. Shi Jiu thought about it and decided that for now he could only ask Jiang Xiao to pay more attention and ask Yan Yue later if there was any news. He had not communicated with her since he sent Yin Xue here.
After seeing Jiang Xiao off, news came from Qin Lou that the group from City A had checked in and would stay for one night. They said they would get back to him the next morning.
Shi Jiu looked at the crystal cores that kept coming into his account, feeling quite satisfied. The cost of the meal they had discussed earlier had also been directly deposited into his account. Did they bring so many crystal cores with them on the way here? It seemed like they had already made some plans.
Even though the crystal core is relatively small and light, to carry something the size of a fingernail, they either need someone with spatial abilities or they can just carry a box with them.
Shi Jiu temporarily let go of that group of people and sent a message directly to Yan Yue. He didn't know what the current situation of Anhe Base was. After those people went back, the contrast was so strong. Would they really not have any other ideas?
Just as Shi Jiu thought, the current situation in the Anhe base is relatively better because of the remaining supplies, but due to the heavy snow, many people cannot go out to fight zombies or look for edible mutant animals and plants, and the supplies are consumed quickly.
The last time dozens of people came back, they not only brought warm clothes, but also a lot of food and lively poultry and livestock. However, apart from the things mentioned above, they could only share the poultry and livestock as they were taken away by the people above, and it was not their turn to raise those rare things now.
However, the news was common. After hearing about everything in the villa, they all felt a yearning for it. It was so much like the life before the end of the world. Although they were busy with life every day at that time, at least they had enough food and clothing. Now, they can only guarantee that they can still survive today.
A few days ago, someone froze to death on the street and was discovered by patrolmen the next day. That's why they rushed to grab the exchanged supplies when they arrived.
But the amazing thing is that it was actually exchanged for crystal cores. I heard that it was much more expensive than those sold in the villa.
There were a lot of rumors in the base, but no one dared to mention them in front of Yan Ping. However, Yan Ping seemed to have known about these things for a long time and even asked about Yan Yue's recent situation.
The subordinate thought about the past two days and replied, "It seems he has been staying in the yard all the time and hasn't come out. He even saw off the person he met on the road earlier at the door."
Yan Ping didn't say anything else, as if he had already known that Yan Yue would have such a reaction. At this time, the sound of Yan Qing's arrival came from outside.
"Father, recently..."
Yan Yue in the yard no longer had the same carefree look as before. He was looking at the messages on his mobile phone with a worried look on his face. The table was piled with food packaging from the past few days. He was conflicted.
Should I say it or not?
