Chapter 143 Happy New Year's Eve~
Jiang Nianwan headed south, looking at the scenery on the road, and suddenly realized that the world today was completely different from what it was thirteen years ago.
Although social order collapsed and the whole world was in chaos at the end of the world, at least there were still some signs of life.
There are even plenty of zombies, and you can encounter fresh ones at any corner.
But now…
Not to mention humans, even fresh zombies are rare.
The zombies are almost turning into mummies.
The cities we passed by were all lifeless, and the alienated plants and animals were uglier than each other.
So ugly that it's unbearable to look at.
It's the kind that will make you lose confidence just by looking at it.
"Is the situation so bad now?" Jiang Nianwan murmured softly.
Xiao Bin, who was driving, sighed upon hearing this: "That's right. The surviving humans are basically all huddled together in the base. Very few survive alone outside - it's too difficult."
Not to mention strength, even food is a big problem.
Today, large areas of land are polluted, and most of the land is simply unable to grow crops.
The lands of those bases were preserved a long time ago, and it is unknown how long they can last.
When encountering some mutant creatures with good tempers, it is still possible to communicate with them, but now the mutant creatures have begun to pollute - that is, gradually losing their rationality.
The human situation will probably become even more dangerous in the future.
Among China's three bases, the situation is slightly better at the southern base, and the other two bases have already started energy-saving plans.
If not, Hao Junfeng and Xiang Dong'er would not have risked going to the southern base.
They even did their research and chose a relatively safe route, but still nearly died along the way.
The mutant creatures were gradually contaminated and became more and more violent.
Time is running out for humanity.
Jiang Nianwan was silent for a while. Although she was not a complete human in the strict sense at this moment, her thinking was still human. Therefore, seeing that the situation of humans was so bad, she couldn't help feeling a little sad.
Although, given her situation, she would probably still be alive after all the humans died.
…
…
The happy break passed and soon it was time for the last game.
The day before the competition, Ji Xiaomi asked Chaoyang out.
We met at the playground in the southern base.
In front of the carousel.
When Chaoyang arrived, Ji Xiaomi was sitting on the carousel, spinning around and taking selfies with her phone, looking very happy.
Ji Xiaomi changed into her skirt again, and Chaoyang vaguely guessed something in his heart.
He curled his lips slightly and then took out his cell phone.
After the carousel finished one circle, Ji Xiaomi got off it and walked in front of Chaoyang.
She no longer avoided it, but looked at Chaoyang seriously and directly.
"You like me, don't you?"
She asked bluntly.
Chaoyang nodded heavily: "Yes! I like you."
"Okay, I accept your confession, let's be together!"
Ji Xiaomi smiled.
Chaoyang seemed to feel that this surprise came a little too suddenly, and his expression was a little dazed.
"Why, are you unhappy?" Ji Xiaomi narrowed her eyes slightly.
Chaoyang immediately came to his senses: "I'm happy to! I'm so happy! But... why did you suddenly figure it out?"
He remembered that the last time he left with Ji Xiaomi, Ji Xiaomi was still avoiding and struggling.
Why is it suddenly...
"I figured it out, but you're still not happy?" Ji Xiaomi glared at Chaoyang, "Why do you care how I figured it out? Anyway, I'm happy and I'm happy!"
Seeing that Ji Xiaomi was about to get upset, Chaoyang quickly tried to comfort her and didn't dare to ask any more questions.
But I just can’t suppress the corners of my mouth.
"So...are we a couple now?" Chaoyang looked at Ji Xiaomi eagerly, "Can I hold your hand?"
Ji Xiaomi coughed lightly and turned her face away uncomfortably: "It's up to you."
Chaoyang was also a little embarrassed, his earlobes and cheeks were slightly hot.
Then, he tentatively stretched out his fingers and hooked Ji Xiaomi's hand. The hand that was touched trembled slightly, but did not dodge.
So, Chaoyang wrapped Ji Xiaomi's hand with his big hand.
Then interlock their fingers.
The warmth of their fingertips was transferred to each other, and their hearts began to beat wildly involuntarily.
His face turned as red as an apple.
[What a shame! Holding hands makes your face as red as a monkey's butt.]
Xiaonian couldn't help but tease.
Ji Xiaomi: "..."
Ji Xiaomi: "You are the monkey's butt."
She said it directly without anyone noticing.
The rising sun next to him:?
What monkey butt?
He was stunned for two seconds before he realized that Ji Xiaomi should be talking to her "alien" brother.
"Are you talking to the system?" Chaoyang asked softly.
Ji Xiaomi turned her head and looked at him: "Yeah, but it's not just a system, it's also my brother."
Chaoyang:! ?
Chaoyang: "Dear brother?"
This was obviously beyond his understanding.
Ji Xiaomi couldn't help laughing when she saw this, then she pulled him to a secluded place and quietly exchanged two bottles of orange soda.
While drinking soda, she told Xiaonian what happened that year after obtaining his consent.
After hearing all this, Chaoyang suddenly understood: "So, the system... that is, Xiaonian, is actually your biological brother. He became the system and came to you specifically to protect you?"
"Yeah." Ji Xiaomi nodded, then took a sip of orange soda, "My brother is the best brother in the world!"
【Hehe, I'm glad to know.】
Xiaonian felt so happy when he heard this that he couldn't help but pout.
He's the best brother in the world.
"Just don't praise yourself. It's easy to get carried away if you praise yourself." Ji Xiaomi added leisurely.
【……】
This is slander!
Total slander!
The New Year's mood turned into a pufferfish.
Ji Xiaomi smiled secretly.
Seeing this, Chaoyang, who was standing by, couldn't help but imagine a somewhat arrogant young man in his mind.
So I couldn't help but laugh.
[What is he laughing at? Is he making fun of me? I tolerate your laughter, but why does he laugh at me?]
Seeing Chaoyang also smiled, Xiaonian was immediately defeated.
[Break up with him! He has character problems! ]
Ji Xiaomi: "..."
Chaoyang was just smiling, how could that be considered a mockery?
【I don’t want to listen, I ...! 】
Ji Xiaomi: “…………”
Speechless Ji Xiaomi couldn't help but turned her head to look at Chaoyang: "You're done, you pissed my brother off."
Chaoyang's smile froze: "...Huh?"
He said nothing and did nothing.
"My brother said you laughed at him, and now he wants me to break up with you." Ji Xiaomi spread her hands, looking innocent, "What do you think we should do now?"
【……】
[No, I was just joking, why did you say it out loud?]
This makes him look so bad!
If a brother and his brother-in-law don't get along, it's most likely the sister is causing trouble!
