Chapter 76 Awkward
In the bedroom, Ji Changqing, who was skilled in converting matter, was paying attention and observing the movements outside the room quietly.
After noticing that guy picked up the clock and put it aside, he sat on the iron bed again with a numb look on his face and stared blankly.
He thought about the man's previous abnormal behavior.
After a little thought, I understood why this guy looked so worried.
It was his negligence.
The water supply was cut off for too long after the apocalypse, and for a moment he did not connect the contaminated water source with the water supply in his home.
Ji Changqing looked at the dazed guy and frowned slightly.
If the other party had not been lucky enough, he might have been infected by now.
The viruses brought by meteorites cannot be touched at all.
Even if contaminated water is boiled, the viruses in it remain active.
It seems that the virus is resistant to high temperatures and has a high survival rate in extreme environments.
After being infected, some people will show no symptoms, as if they are immune to the virus.
Once symptoms appear, death is almost inevitable. Death is not horrific, but a peaceful death from a fever.
But the death rate caused by this virus is not high compared to the disaster itself.
After noticing that there was a deadly virus in the water source, most people did not want to gamble with their lives, except for a few guys who were seeking to become evolvers, not knowing whether it was true or not.
Apart from using the water purifiers distributed by the government, few people would try to drink any water source exposed to the virus.
The chance of an evolver appearing is very small. In a small shelter with thousands of people, there are only a handful of evolvers.
The most common theory about the origin of that type of people is that a mysterious alien virus modified human genes.
However, the government has never released any relevant research findings on the virus and the autopsies of those infected.
The widely-circulated theory of viral evolution has never been definitively proven.
He also doesn't have any friends who are evolvers and look down on others.
The so-called evolvers disdain to deal with ordinary people.
Therefore, he could not confirm whether the arrogant evolvers who had the power to fight against other mutant creatures after the end of the world were transformed by the virus.
There are two types of evolvers: one has extraordinary evolution of physical potential, and the other has brain development.
The supernatural powers acquired by the second type of evolvers can almost overturn materialism.
In the world of that kind of people, consciousness determines matter and the subjective influences objective existence.
Similar to his field.
The spirit has become an invisible force that can directly interfere with everything in the real macroscopic material world.
But the abilities of the evolver are far less comprehensive than the abilities he possesses in the field.
Those guys only showed a relatively single special ability, but compared with ordinary survivors, they seemed magical.
Ji Changqing looked up and down at the thin body of the guy outside.
His thoughts were the same as when we first met, nothing had changed.
Judging from this person's physical condition, he still felt that this person would not be able to survive after being infected.
He unconsciously clenched his hands, trying to ignore the strange emotions in his heart.
He was already used to seeing death happen.
Even if that idiot gets infected and dies...it doesn't matter, everyone will die.
After the end of the world, fellow travelers around me passed away suddenly. The guy who was still talking in the morning turned into a corpse in the afternoon. I have seen this kind of thing so many times that it no longer touches my heart.
He had only been with her for over twenty days, a companion with whom he had little affection. She was just someone he observed for fun when he had nothing else to do. So what if he lost her?
Looking at the guy's confused expression, Ji Changqing felt inexplicably annoyed.
It was as if the other person's uneasiness was caused by him.
The alarm bell in my heart sounded again.
It was obvious that the idiot had affected his mood.
Maybe it was because I had been too confident before, telling the other person that I was not a decoration and promised to protect the other person.
If he breaks his promise and fails to do his job, he will not be able to feel at ease and pretend that nothing happened.
Outside, if the idiot dies, he dies, it has nothing to do with him.
Even if this person disappeared sooner, it might be a good thing for him. Just one source of disturbing emotions is enough to make one feel annoyed.
But...when operating within his territory, he will be a little more careful to ensure the guy's life safety.
There won't be a next time like the previous mistake.
Ji Changqing stared at the fragile guy with a gloomy expression.
After watching the man sitting on the iron bed for a long time, he slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep leaning against the boxes of supplies piled up behind him.
He felt angry for no reason.
He still remembered that this idiot had been clamoring for hot pot and had annoyed him for a long time, but now he didn't even eat and just fell asleep.
It wasn't like what I said before, that I insisted on sleeping in the same bedroom with him because I was afraid of death.
Ji Changqing looked surprised.
So what the other party means is that you won’t feel safe around him, right?
Just because of his one negligence, he is labeled as untrustworthy?
I felt increasingly irritated, as if I were being mocked.
He suddenly stood up and pushed the door open with a cold face, "He Rui!"
The other person woke up with a start, opened his eyes sleepily, sat up straight, and looked at him in confusion, "Huh? What's wrong?"
He Rui looked at his good brother standing at the bedroom door, looking at him angrily for some reason.
His expression was quite fierce and his face looked ugly as if he had just eaten nine-turn large intestine.
He Rui felt very confused and didn't know what was going on.
Although he now knows that the other party is a good person.
He also wholeheartedly accepted this guy and respected him as his elder brother and savior.
But he also knew that the other party's habit of always finding fault for no reason would definitely not change.
No one is perfect, and it's normal for Brother Ji to have some flaws in his character.
Although he really couldn't figure out why the other party kept finding fault with him.
He Rui looked at his brother Ji, who stared at him fiercely with a dark face for a while, and then uttered two words, "...It's okay."
He turned around and went back into the house, slamming the door.
He Rui tried to hold it back, but couldn't help sighing, "You're sick."
He really didn't want to curse, he was forced to do so.
He Rui believes that everyone who has been scolded by him should reflect on whether there is something wrong with them.
At the beginning, when Ji Changqing got angry, he would apologize, but now his temper is getting worse and worse.
Of course, even though that guy is sick, He Rui still recognizes him as his good brother.
The two identities of a fool and a big brother do not conflict with each other.
He Rui put on his shoes and went to the window to listen to the noise outside.
