Chapter 12
The outer city and the chaotic area are like two different worlds. Vehicles are constantly passing by on the wide streets. Apart from taxis, the most common cars seen are cars worth four or five hundred thousand yuan. Of course, the new Black Hawk luxury cars that were released last year and are worth between five hundred thousand and eight hundred thousand yuan are also not uncommon.
However, when it comes to cars, the most expensive one has to be the hover car that can be driven in the air. Unlike the rare but still visible Black Hawk luxury car, the number of people in the outer city who can afford a hover car can be counted on one hand.
At this time, Jiaojiao was sitting on Yin Zheng's arms with his light green transparent milk bottle on his back, and his pair of dark and ignorant eyes were looking curiously at the outer city which was completely different from the chaotic area.
After changing his clothes, he wore a light yellow short-sleeved shirt with a little white dove on the left chest, dark blue shorts with white cloud patterns on the bottom, and a pair of sandals of the same color on his white and tender feet.
Before leaving the chaotic area, Yin Zheng was afraid that if he stayed in the outer city for too long, he would not have time to come back for milk, so he took Jiaojiao back to Yongxiang and made a bottle of milk to bring out.
You should know that the milk powder he bought is specially designed to supplement various trace elements for babies aged two to three years old, and it must be consumed three times a day.
Yin Zheng, who was inexplicably obsessed with Jiaojiao's weight gain, kept this in mind and even changed Jiaojiao's clothes before going out.
"Daddy, fly." Jiaojiao, who was sitting on his arm, pointed at the figure taking off in the distant square, her dark eyes full of curiosity.
Yin Zheng looked in the direction he pointed and found that the figures taking off were the white doves.
There are no white pigeons in the chaotic zone. The rare ones that fly over will be shot down by the wild guys in the chaotic zone as a snack.
The white doves flew over the crisscrossing streets, scattered houses, wide squares, and the majestic clock tower. When they were about to fly over Jiaojiao's head, they suddenly changed direction and flew towards the two of them.
Yin Zheng, who didn't notice the aggression, hesitated for a while, looked at Jiaojiao who was clapping her hands happily, and let the group of white pigeons fly closer.
A group of white pigeons flew over and circled around them several times. One of them was so brave that it flew to Jiaojiao's shoulder and landed.
Jiaojiao, who was clapping her hands, stopped and carefully touched the white dove standing on his shoulder with her little mouth opened. Her eyes, like black grapes, were slightly curved as if filled with broken stars.
Looking at this scene, Yin Zheng suddenly recalled the stray cat that followed him when he first saw Jiaojiao.
He had seen that stray cat before. It was very alert. An animal that was not alert could not survive in a chaotic area and would have been hunted and eaten by those wild children long ago.
Children seem to have a special affinity for others. Even wary stray cats can rub against them safely when they see them for the first time.
Perhaps because of Yin Zheng's presence, the group of white pigeons did not stay for long and flew away reluctantly.
Jiaojiao didn't try to catch them, but just kept waving her little hands goodbye to them until she could no longer see them.
When the boy raised his head, Yin Zheng reached out and held the back of his head to prevent the child from falling backwards and spraining his neck.
After saying goodbye to Bai Ge, Yin Zheng carried Jiaojiao across a street and a square. During this time, he noticed many anxious people who seemed to be looking for something.
He glanced away and then looked away. He was not the kind of person who meddles in other people's affairs. The only exception was Jiaojiao in his arms.
After a while they arrived at the largest and most comprehensive Lido Mall in the outer city.
The third floor of the mall is a special area for children. As soon as you go up to the third floor, you can see children running back and forth and their parents exhaustedly chasing after them.
Yin Zheng carried Jiaojiao into the toy store and put him down from his arms, whispering, "Go and see what you like, and take whatever you like back."
The toy city is called a city but it is actually just a larger shop. Jiaojiao, who had just come out of her father's arms, walked among the dazzling array of toys with her bottle on her back. She looked back from time to time to see if her father was keeping up with her. She looked as if she was afraid that Yin Zheng would get lost.
The parents who were slumped in the rest area saw this scene and couldn't help but look at Yin Zheng with envy.
Look at other people’s children. They don’t run or jump but turn back to wait for their parents. They are as soft and well-behaved as a glutinous rice dumpling and look so sweet.
Jiaojiao, who was walking in front, would look at the toys and then look back at his father. After repeating this several times, he still ran back and pulled Yin Zheng's trouser legs out of concern. After making sure that this way his father would not get lost, Jiaojiao could finally look at the toys around him with peace of mind.
Jiaojiao was walking among the toys with her eyes sparkling with joy, but she did not reach out to take any. She just kept looking at them and did not let her father buy any.
Yin Zheng, who was accompanying Jiaojiao, suddenly raised his eyes and looked to the front left. There was a pair of eyes that had been staring at Jiaojiao for a long time, almost as soon as Jiaojiao entered the door.
Yin Zheng looked over with unfriendly eyes and found that the boy was about twelve years old. He was squatting on the ground, hugging his knees with his hands, and his deep green eyes were fixed on Jiaojiao.
Noticing the dull look in the boy's eyes, Yin Zheng glanced at the several bodyguards standing beside him with straight postures and a strong military style, then looked away.
I guessed that he should be a teenager with some mental problems. It is generally difficult for ordinary people to understand the behavior of such people.
Jiaojiao, who was looking at the toys, also noticed the boy's gaze, leaned out half of her body to look at the boy, and waved to say hello.
The boy didn't respond, still staring at him blankly.
Jiaojiao tilted her head curiously and looked away, ready to continue looking at the toys.
Before Jiaojiao's eyes fell on the toy again, Yin Zheng picked him up and walked out quickly.
Almost instantly, everything became chaos!
There were running people, shrill alarms, and shaking buildings. Jiaojiao was in a daze and was being carried by her father and running quickly. When she looked up, she saw a group of huge flying alien species in the sky that were so huge that they blocked out the sun.
He blinked, but there was no fear in his ignorant eyes.
Sala City is a border town, bordering the southwest of the Endless Sea, and it is common for it to be attacked by alien species.
The people in the outer city are trying their best to enter the inner city because there is a barrier above the inner city, and alien species below level six cannot break through the barrier and attack the people in the inner city.
The barrier of the outer city is relatively far inferior. Its biggest function is to isolate radiation, which is almost useless for protection.
The alien species that suddenly attacked the city this time was called the Winged Guillemot, the overlord of the sky. They were huge in size and flew at an extremely fast speed. The sound they made at close range could break a person's eardrums. Winged Guillemots above level six could even destroy a person's mental strength with their calls alone.
The Winged Pi ...
Sala Border City borders the southwestern Endless Sea, where most of the alien species are beasts, with the only flying species being the Winged Guillemot. Therefore, Sala City's defenses against air raids are weak, allowing the Winged Guillemot to easily reach the outer city.
Yin Zheng carried Jiaojiao out of the mall and returned after a while. There was no real safe place in the outer city, and it was too late to enter the inner city now. The outside was full of winged geese.
In a blink of an eye, all the children were sent to the warehouse behind the mall on the first floor. There were mostly snacks and various foods here. In case of any accidents, they could survive here for a long time.
After arranging the children, the adults rushed out to fight for a way out for their children.
None of the residents of Sala City, whether in the inner or outer city, are truly without fighting ability.
Although most people cannot be considered hunters, it does not mean that they have no fighting ability at all. After all, Salar is a border town, and border towns have always been places with tough folk customs since ancient times.
Before leaving, Yin Zheng handed the bottle in his pocket to Jiaojiao. He rubbed his head before leaving and didn't say anything else except, "Wait for me to come back."
He was absolutely confident that he could come back no matter what the situation was. If he hadn't been worried that the child wasn't suitable to see the fighting scene, he would definitely have taken Jiaojiao to the inner city.
Time passed by little by little, and the sounds of gunfire and killing outside could be heard faintly from a distance. Unlike the children around her who were crying and shouting for their mothers, the hungry Jiaojiao sat on the ground, drinking from the bottle, waiting obediently for her father to come back.
Because of subconscious habit, Jiaojiao stayed in a corner, and the other children did not see him drinking milk, otherwise they would have cried even harder.
While drinking, Jiaojiao suddenly felt something poking his butt. He immediately looked back with his eyes wide open, holding the bottle in his mouth, and then he met a pair of small eyes.
He tilted his head, reached out and poked its pointed mouth, and mumbled with the bottle in his mouth, "Pigeon."
The pigeon that looked particularly chubby hiding behind Jiaojiao pecked Jiaojiao's hand lightly.
Jiaojiao, whose hand was pecked, looked at the bottle in her hand hesitantly. After thinking for a long time, she nodded reluctantly and stuffed the bottle in front of the pigeon.
The chubby three-legged pigeon pecked at the pacifier in front of it, then raised its head and looked at Jiaojiao with its small eyes.
Jiaojiao, who was being watched, stretched out her little finger and scratched her face. Her eyes lit up as if she thought of something. She took the bottle and poured the milk into her little hand. After pouring for a while, she found that no milk came out.
After realizing this, Jiaojiao was stunned for a while while holding the bottle. Then, remembering what her father did when he made milk powder for her, she clamped the bottle between her legs, then held the bottle cap with both hands and twisted it hard.
Jiaojiao, who bit the bottle so hard that it hurt Xiaomi's teeth, patted the bottle that didn't move at all and said to the fat pigeon, "Don't open it."
Suddenly, a hand reached out from the side and took Jiaojiao's bottle. When Jiaojiao looked over, he had already unscrewed the bottle and handed it back.
Jiaojiao took the bottle and said softly, "Thank you."
The one who unscrewed the bottle for Jiaojiao was the little boy whom he had met in the toy town before. After unscrewing the bottle, he continued to squat on the ground with his hands on his knees, staring blankly at the back of Jiaojiao's head.
After taking the bottle, Jiaojiao was now feeding the fat pigeon with the bottle tilted, saying as she fed it, "You can only drink a little bit, give it to daddy."
The fat pigeon drank very quickly, and soon his drink reached the defense line in Jiaojiao's heart.
After calling it several times and seeing it still not stopping, Jiaojiao stretched out her little hand and pinched its pointed mouth, saying angrily, "You've drunk too much."
The fat pigeon with its mouth pinched did not struggle, and looked at Jiaojiao with its small eyes.
After being angry for a while, Jiaojiao let go of its mouth, covered the bottle with clumsy hands, and held it in her arms.
The fat pigeon, which had no milk to drink, tilted its head, walked forward and jumped onto Jiaojiao's legs.
There was quite a bit of blood on the fat pigeon's snow-white feathers. Jiaojiao, who didn't know what the blood represented, reached out and poked its wings. Thinking of the flock of pigeons she had seen not long ago, she asked, "Why aren't they flying?"
The winged gull has a very strong healing ability, so the people who captured it were not afraid that the injury to its wings would affect its future flying ability. They put wire across its wings to prevent it from flying.
In the central city, or those richer cities, many nobles love to raise alien species as a particularly cool means of transportation.
Of course, these are generally those alien species with mild personalities. Through some scientific means, their dangerousness is suppressed, their claws and teeth are removed, and they are raised from a young age to become harmless and cool means of transportation.
When this young winged parrot was caught, the person who caught it encountered some trouble. It took the opportunity to escape, and at the cost of its wings being cut in two, it broke free from the wire and half-ran and half-flew to this place and hid there.
At this time, its wings had almost healed, and it heard the calls of its tribe again. It was holding Jiaojiao's hand and urging him to carry it out.
"No." Jiaojiao pushed its head away and said seriously with a stern face: "Jiaojiao, wait for daddy."
At this moment, two men suddenly came in from outside the warehouse door, and as soon as they came in, their eyes were carefully searching for something.
The fat pigeon that was originally standing on Jiaojiao's legs in the corner suddenly lifted Jiaojiao's clothes with its mouth and crawled into Jiaojiao's clothes.
