Before the true night arrives, the sins hidden in the shadows need only be borne by those who know them.
When Wen Jinxue came out of the bathroom, she saw Shi Yin leaning against the wall, pretending to doze off. Her coat was a little cold, and Shi Yin's hands seemed to be cold as well.
"Did I take a long time?" Wen Jinxue asked in confusion.
"No." Shi Yin shook her head gently, and when she saw Jiang Ning and Cheng Sui coming over out of the corner of her eye, she simply stood up.
Shi Yin remained silent and followed behind, while Jiang Ning and the other two were relieved and resumed their usual cheerful conversation, walking ahead.
My phone vibrated twice; I wondered who sent the text message.
Ye Shaoheng: I'll pick you up tomorrow.
We've used our connections to get you leave directly from the school administration, so it won't interfere with your classes and cause you to fail or lose points. As for assignments and studies...
"You're going to take me through the apocalypse, so whether we study our major courses or not doesn't really matter anymore, right? I'm sure you won't be designing clothes while fighting monsters in the apocalypse..."
Shi Yin's major in college is fashion design. When asked, she simply follows the school's assignments. While Shi Yin is good at rational thinking, she can't be said to be naturally dull when it comes to art, but she's certainly not very good at it either.
It's better to work until 2 a.m. than to produce something that someone with an appreciation for art could do in two hours.
【Okay.】Shiyin replied.
Half a year.
Hopefully, things will go more smoothly this time.
Most ordinary people in reality lead hard and tiring lives, and people online often say they hope for the end of the world so they won't have to go to work or school.
In reality, the apocalypse was far more brutal than imagined, especially after the country was torn apart by chaos and various warbands declared themselves kings, creating a form of exploitation even more ruthless than feudalism.
Superpowers are not something everyone has, weapons are not something everyone has, and the courage to commit suicide is also not something everyone has.
Lying in bed, Shi Yin couldn't fall asleep. She was no longer used to the soft bed and was afraid that she would succumb to its warmth.
The dormitory was quiet; Jiang Ning and the other two had all fallen asleep.
Shi Yin climbed off the bed and huddled in the corner. The hard floor and cold floor gave Shi Yin a sense of reality.
Shi Yin wrapped her coat tighter and closed her eyes.
My phone vibrated.
[Mom: Honey, is there anything you want for your birthday this year?]
Shi Yin's birthday is in the second half of the year. Asking about her birthday before summer is really too early, but Shi Yin knows that her mother always values her birthday more than she does.
What was her response before she was reborn the first time?
It seems to be something like: "Mom, this is way too early. My birthday is in the second half of the year and you're preparing for it in the first half?"
The mother replied happily: Of course, I will definitely prepare a good birthday present for my baby.
At that time, no one expected things to turn out like this six months later. With the internet and electricity cut off, the conflict between panic and hope sustained Shi Yin as she clung to life until her death without ever seeing her parents and sisters again.
They died without ever knowing whether they were dead or had gone to another shelter.
After that, Tokine was reborn many times, but the results were not satisfactory.
"Anything is fine, I like everything you send." Shi Yin typed slowly.
After her rebirth, Shi Yin gradually became indifferent to many things, but she always remained patient with her family.
[Mother: Oh dear? I caught you up so late and you're still not asleep? Go to sleep now! Don't you have school tomorrow? (fiercely.jpg)]
My mother [pointing and gesturing.jpg]
Tokine: [Sleep now.]
My dear mother【Happy.jpg】
Dear Mother【Good night.jpg】
She's quite fashionable.
Shi Yin's expression softened slightly. She turned off her phone and closed her eyes again.
In a hazy dream, Shi Yin seemed to recall her last birthday, when she was wearing a birthday hat and surrounded by her family, with candles flickering on the cake.
[Yinyin, what is your wish?]
desire?
My wish is that this country will always be brightly lit.
4:30 a.m.
Shi Yin suddenly opened her eyes, and all she could hear was the sound of the wind outside the window.
Shi Yin stood up, straightened her clothes and hair, and made herself look clean, neat and meticulous.
Today we're going to Beijing with Ye Yuansong; tomorrow we'll have a tough battle to fight.
At seven o'clock sharp, Shi Yin came downstairs. Ye Shaoheng's car was already waiting at the intersection. Shi Yin opened the back door and got in smoothly and naturally, as if she were at home.
"Sister Yin, is six months really enough time?" Ye Shaoheng couldn't help but ask, "Isn't that too rushed?"
Since starting to connect with Shiyin, Ye Shaoheng has sent the driver away and driven himself, checking three times before driving to see if there are any eavesdropping devices.
"It was rushed." Shi Yin didn't deny it: "But it was enough."
When everyone takes things seriously and reaches their peak efficiency, the overall dynamic efficiency of the country will be quite remarkable.
However, no matter how hard they try, Yanlong Kingdom will have to shrink its territory by half.
What's needed now is to concentrate manpower.
The country is an unparalleled high-caliber team, which no single individual, no matter how talented, can match.
"...Couldn't you explain a little more? Riddlers are really annoying!" Ye Shaoheng gritted his teeth. "Why is the time so tight, but there's enough time? Could you explain a little before answering the question?"
"There's nothing to explain. Implementing a lenient policy does take time, but I will take very tough measures," Shi Yin said calmly. "I need absolute trust and absolute command."
Absolutely? Does she know what she's saying?
Ye Shaoheng nearly choked to death. There are so many people in Yanlong Kingdom, how can you be absolutely certain? There are bound to be some who don't obey...
However, seeing Shi Yin's indifferent expression, Ye Shaoheng didn't want to get humiliated again, so he could only take her there first.
"Major General." Shi Yin got out of the car and stood right in front of Ye Yuansong.
Ye Yuansong looked at Shi Yin and nodded to himself.
It's rare for ordinary people to have such a calm and indifferent aura. Shi Yin's back was straight, and his presence was as imposing as a mountain. Even Ye Yuansong rarely saw someone with such an aura in the army.
This kind of temperament is not innate; anyone with experience can tell at a glance that it has been honed by time, or even baptized by blood and gunfire. In that case, at least one meeting can make people believe it to some extent.
"Let's go to the capital."
Ye Yuansong didn't say much, and boarded the plane with Shi Yin and her entourage.
The private jet was spacious, with a sofa in the lounge area facing an LCD TV that was broadcasting a report on the preparations for the conference.
The flight will only take about two hours, so the bedroom and bathroom in the private jet will be unnecessary. However, there is a chef preparing meals in the kitchen, and Ye Yuansong has made up his mind to entertain Shi Yin on the plane.
"Hey, Sister Yin, how are you going to convince those people?" Ye Shaoheng asked worriedly from the side. "Those people aren't like young people who are easy to understand. They'll really treat you like a lunatic and drag you out."
“They will agree,” Shi Yin said calmly.
Ye Shaoheng shuddered. He suddenly remembered that when he questioned Shi Yin, she seemed to have said the same thing, which was directly proven wrong by reality...
"Well, Sister Yin, let's talk about something."
"Can you please stop using that embarrassing clip of me to gain my trust? Just pick another unlucky person..."
He really didn't want to die in front of so many people; it really made him want to just die on the spot and leave this beautiful planet...
