His bright smile carried a hint of youthful shyness.
I'm still a little reserved.
He looks like a very shy young man.
"Sister, Xiaofan, are you going out to collect supplies?"
Hongyu scratched her head sheepishly, stealing a glance at Bai Xizhu.
Every time he saw Bai Xizhu, he had a feeling of familiarity, but he could never remember where he had seen her before.
"Hmm." Bai Xizhu nodded vaguely, her eyes flickering slightly, and asked in return, "Are you planning to stay here and keep watch indefinitely? What are your plans for the future?"
"Where else can we go if not here? Of course, we'll wait until school starts."
Hongyu blinked in confusion, her hand unconsciously touching a test paper that she hadn't finished filling out in her pocket.
He thought that after a while the world would return to normal, he could take the exam properly, get into a prestigious university, and become a college student, just like his grandfather had said, thus changing his destiny.
"What if the world stays like this forever, and school never starts?" Bai Xizhu asked casually.
Bai Xizhu's words startled Hongyu.

"Being a gatekeeper is my duty now." A hint of confusion flashed in Hongyu's eyes, but then her resolve hardened.
He is shy and doesn't like to talk too much with others, but he feels that being the goalkeeper these past few days has been pretty good.
When no one is around, I can still do a few math problems.
"The gatekeeper's duty is to guard the gate and prevent zombies and mutated animals from entering the safe base. The key is to protect it," Bai Xizhu said meaningfully.
"I understand."
When Hongyu saw Bai Xizhu staring straight into her eyes, she lowered her head shyly, but her fingers clenched firmly.
He will definitely fulfill his duty as a gatekeeper.
To ensure that the people at the safe base, and my sister, are not threatened in any way.
