Chapter 996: Be Cautious
The rain kept falling under the eaves. An Ran nodded, reached out and tore off the doll hanging on her father's neck, and said, "Be careful on your way."
Then he watched Zhan Lian open his umbrella, walk on the bluestone road, leave the yard, and go to the north gate of Baihua City.
Liu Xiaojue, as a comrade-in-arms of Zhan Lian and Luo Feifan, must meet him, no matter whether there are problems or not. The friendship between them needs to be proven.
Because An Ran was curious, she followed Zhan Lian's footsteps and looked all the way in her mind. Liu Xiaojue had been left outside Baihua City, living a leisurely life. These days, apart from getting closer to Hu Zheng, he didn't cause any extraordinary trouble. Zhan Lian went to see the former Zhan Lian. The smile on Liu Xiaojue's face was naturally much more sincere than when he faced An Ran. The two of them gave each other a big hug when they met, and then they poured out their hearts to each other... They told each other about their experiences after the end of the world, and talked until most of the night.
Hu Zheng was in Baihua City, reporting to An Ran on the construction of the outer walls of Times Base and Xiaozhou City. They wanted to take advantage of the rainy season to repair the barbed wire above Times Base and Xiaozhou City.
Just after walking out of An Ran's yard, Hu Zheng thought about it, turned to Wu Simiao's house, asked him for a bottle of homemade wine, and went towards the north gate with it.
Just as he was walking to the north gate, he ran into Fatty, who was holding an umbrella. He saw Hu Zheng from a distance, so he greeted him and asked:
"Where are you going?"
"Go and give Xiao Jue some wine."
Hu Zheng responded to the fat man, and originally wanted to bypass the fat man so as to get to Liu Xiaojue's tent faster. However, the fat man stood on the path, looking at Hu Zheng with a half-smile on his face, and did not give way to him.
"Hey Fatty, move aside. You eat so much and are so fat. I can only let you walk this road alone."
"Hu Zheng, can't you use your brain that's filled with mutant flesh to think about it?"
The fat man looked at Hu Zheng with some regret and snorted, "I didn't want to say anything, but you've been going to Liu Xiaojue's place every day recently, so I can't help but nag you. Don't think that Liu Xiaojue is a good person just because he saved you and me. Sometimes, when judging a person, you need to see the essence through the phenomenon."
"What do you mean?" Hu Zheng didn't move, but after thinking about it, he asked in shock, "Fatty, do you suspect that Liu Xiaojue is a spy?"
"I didn't say that." The fat man immediately straightened out his stance. "An Ran didn't say that either, and Zhan Lian didn't say that either, so you'd better stop talking nonsense."
After a pause, Hu Zheng saw that Liu Xiaojue still didn't understand, so he sighed and continued, "No matter if he is your savior or your former comrade-in-arms, this is the end of the world. As long as it is in the end of the world, everyone will change. I am not saying whether Liu Xiaojue is a good person or a bad person. I am just saying that you should be cautious. An Ran also means the same thing, be cautious."
In addition to being cautious, when dealing with people, don't give your whole heart to someone you've just met for a short time. Some things need to be observed slowly before you can see the problem clearly. This was too complicated for Hu Zheng, so the fat man didn't point it out clearly.
Hu Zheng didn't quite understand what he heard. He nodded and said thoughtfully:
"Is it because Xiao Jue is dissatisfied with An Ran's idea and has aroused your opinions? He showed it quite obviously, and I noticed it."
