Chapter 102 The Wall in the Mind

An Ran looked at Heng Heng and Liu Yuan, mother and son, hugging each other and crying. She turned and went to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator and looked inside. The power had been out for a long time. There were meat bones, fish and other things that An Ran had prepared before, but they had long been spoiled.

There are still some apples in the refrigerator. Although some parts of the apples are rotten, you can still eat the good parts after cutting off the rotten parts.

An Ran looked at the apples lying in the refrigerator, thought for a moment, closed the refrigerator door again, turned around and left the kitchen, and spread her hands to Liu Yuan and Heng Heng, "I don't have any food here. When I came back just now, a whole truck of supplies was snatched away by Wang Xin."

There are only a few bad apples in the refrigerator. It won’t be a big deal if you give two to Liu Yuan and Heng Heng, right?

It’s just that An Ran doesn’t want to raise people like Chen Jiao and Hu Zhen anymore.

She couldn't understand why Liu Yuan didn't run out to kill zombies when she was forced into this situation? Once she left the community, there would be a huge amount of food waiting for her to take. As long as she dared to kill zombies, she would not have to worry about not finding food.

And Hengheng is no longer a baby. He is already five years old and can understand things and what adults say.

It should be easier for Liu Yuan to kill zombies than An Ran, because Liu Yuan does not have the same difficulties as An Ran. An Ran's biggest difficulty is that the doll will suddenly cry and attract zombies.

So An Ran would not give food to Liu Yuan, even though Liu Yuan was her neighbor and had helped her a lot. An Ran just thought that it was better to teach a man how to fish than to give him a fish. If Liu Yuan was willing, she could take Liu Yuan with her and find a way to get all the supplies back from the security room.

But she would never protect anyone again, or give food to anyone, no matter who they were.

Liu Yuan squatted on the ground, holding Heng Heng. She obviously didn't think An Ran would lie to her. She just looked up at An Ran in confusion and asked, "Your food was also stolen? What are you going to do? How can you hold on? You still have to feed a child. Wang Xin is such a jerk. He just wants to use food to control us and let those security guards do whatever they want."

"Don't worry." An Ran lowered her head, glanced at Heng Heng, and said vaguely: "I'm going to go find him anyway!"

I don't know which book I read that said there is a wall in people's minds. From what Liu Yuan said, it seems that there are many other survivors in this Yangguang Lake community. As a result, these survivors were controlled by Wang Xin and several security guards with food? Why don't they go out to kill zombies and find food? Why do they have to stay in this community? The outside world may not be so terrible. Is it more terrible than the hearts of people in this community?

Or maybe they have never been out, so they think zombies are scary. Their thinking is limited by the wall of "zombies are very scary."

But the wall in Enron's mind had already been torn down.

She thought differently from everyone else. She just thought that if someone stole her ex-husband's car and didn't take it back, and just kept avoiding power, how would she return the car to her ex-husband if she ran into him in the future? Her problem now was not whether she could kill zombies and survive alone with her child, but how she could "get" her supplies and her ex-husband's car back.

I saw some readers said that the heroine in this book was very disappointing compared with my previous books.

It's like this. I want to explain. I have been writing books for about five or six years, and have written eight novels in total. Since I started writing my first novel, my heroines have all had the same ruthless personality. They are too strong and have too much of a superiority complex. I have written many heroines like this.

Then when I was hospitalized, I suddenly felt that writing for a heroine like this was boring and unchallenging, really.

So in this book, I want to create a different heroine, and think more about how to adapt to this slowly collapsing world from the perspective of an ordinary mother.

This kind of subject matter is very risky, and most people don't dare to try it easily, because if it's not done well, it will make readers feel depressed and virgin. I can only say that this is caused by my willfulness and stubbornness. Writing this book has put me under a lot of pressure, and has disappointed many readers who have followed me since I got pregnant. I hope you will forgive me and let me let this book go!
