Chapter 253: The Vicious Little White Flower in the End Times (Extra)
The first year of the Dawn Era.
"Hurry up, bring those steel bars up. Where are the power-type esper? Come and help."
"Metal-type superpowers, the people need you. Can you try harder and make use of the scrap metal? Rebars, screws, wires, these are not enough."
"You water guy over there, stop hanging around and get to work."
The scene was in full swing.
Nine years after the apocalypse, except for the regular maintenance of the base buildings in the major bases, the buildings in other places have long been decayed in the desolate years and are covered with mutated plants.
The end of the world is over, but other things are just beginning.
For example, post-disaster reconstruction.
The people in this land have a deep love for infrastructure, and Xie Wei has to spend two days in the dust every time he goes there.
Seeing this scene, Su Yu sighed sincerely that human beings are a very magical species. They survive the fittest and live independently, but they are unprecedentedly united in the face of major disasters, and it seems that there is no difficulty that they cannot overcome.
"Senior, let's go."
"Um."
After leaving the construction site, Su Yu and Xie Wei walked aimlessly.
I don't know why, I just want to walk around.
Su Yu: "Senior, the apocalypse is over."
Xie Wei: “Yeah.”
Su Yu asked: "Have you thought about where you want to go in the future?"
Xie Wei lowered his eyes and looked at her: "Where do you want to go?"
Su Yu thought for a moment and said, "I don't want to go anywhere. I just want to stay here. I've lived here for nine years and I don't want to bother anymore."
Xie Wei: "Then stay here."
A meaningless conversation.
Su Yu sighed and said helplessly: "Senior, I'm asking you."
Xie Wei answered straightforwardly: "I'll go wherever you go."
“…”
That's fine.
They arrived at the base square unknowingly and slowed down their pace unconsciously.
In the center of the square, there stands a tall and majestic statue of a goddess. She has a gentle look and a compassionate expression. She lowers her eyes slightly, but looks into the distance, as if she is gently looking down at everyone on this land.
The face of the statue is exactly the same as Su Yu.
Every time she saw the statue, Su Yu doubted herself deeply: Does she really look like this? Is the filter of the sculptor too thick?
Su Yu, standing in the crowd wearing a hat and a mask, tried hard to reduce her presence. She pulled Xie Wei's sleeve and walked quickly, just wanting to quickly cross the square and escape from those who were praying for her blessing.
"I hope the goddess will bless me and I will get better soon."
"I hope the goddess will bless me with great wealth."
"I hope the goddess will bless me so that my ability level will become higher and higher."
"I hope the goddess will bless my dog to give birth to puppies safely."
"I hope the goddess will protect the neighbor's dog from giving birth to puppies. His dog is shameless and is dating several dogs at the same time. He also dumped my dog. My dog has been depressed these days and can't even eat meat and bones. It's all because of his dog."
The wishes at the beginning are still normal, but they become gradually outrageous later on.
Su Yu's expression was indescribable after being forced to listen to the love-hate story about the dog.
She took two steps out and finally couldn't help but look back: "Hey, have you ever thought that whether a dog gives birth to puppies or not is not something that a goddess can control?"
The two people who were about to fight stopped at the same time and glared at her seriously: "Nonsense, the goddess is omnipotent. She ended the apocalypse, why can't she control the dog to give birth?"
Su Yu: “…I don’t think she can.”
The two men looked at each other and briefly shared a common hatred for the enemy: "Why do you say that?"
"That's right, what makes you say that?"
"You are slandering the goddess. I will report you to the base and have you arrested!"
Su Yu was silent: "..."
Am I slandering myself?
Xie Wei stood by without saying a word, his mouth corners difficult to suppress under the mask.
Noticing that Su Yu was wearing a mask and a hat to cover her face, the two mocked her, "Why are you wearing a mask in such a hot sun? You don't even dare to show your face. How dare you, a scoundrel, speak so arrogantly here?"
"Don't waste your time talking to her. She must be jealous of the goddess."
"That's right. He has such evil thoughts. He must not be a good person. Unlike the goddess, who is so kind, she will definitely bless my dog to give birth to puppies smoothly."
“…”
Su Yu was speechless.
Another person was unhappy: "Nonsense, your dog is not loyal at all. If it dated so many dogs at the same time, the goddess would definitely know right from wrong and prevent your dog from giving birth to puppies."
The two men started fighting again.
"What makes you say that?"
"The goddess herself is very loyal. I heard that she only has one psychic by her side, and she hasn't changed her partner in nine years."
You punch me and I kick you.
"They haven't gotten married yet, so who knows what will happen in the future? I think a man is not worthy of a goddess. She is so powerful, she should have 180 male concubines like the emperors in ancient times."
Hearing this, Su Yu's eyes lit up for a moment.
The smile on Xie Wei's face gradually disappeared, and his eyes became cold.
In the end, the farce ended with the two being taken away by law enforcement.
Su Yu sighed with a hint of regret.
It's not that she is loyal, it's just that Xie Wei is too jealous. If she dares to find another man, that man's body will appear outside the city in less than half a day.
And she will be thrown into space, unable to live or die.
When she turned around, she met Xie Wei's cold gaze. Su Yu shuddered and quickly assured him, "You are all I need!"
It was hard enough to deal with Xie Wei alone, she couldn't handle any more.
Xie Wei looked at her coldly and said nothing.
I thought the matter was over, but the next day, Su Yu was hit by a bolt from the blue.
She is getting married.
She was the last one to receive the notice.
Another party was discussing wedding arrangements with the base commander in an orderly manner. As a highly sought-after public figure, Su Yu's wedding was, to a certain extent, as important as the Chinese New Year, and it had to be handled with caution and in a grand manner.
Su Yu tugged at Xie Wei's sleeve: "Are we really going to have a wedding?"
Xie Wei glanced at her: "You don't want to?"
Su Yu's heart tightened, and she instinctively knew that if she answered that she didn't want to, the consequences would be terrible.
"…How could that be? Of course I would."
Su Yu probed: "It's just... isn't it a little too sudden? What should I do if I don't have time to prepare?"
Xie Wei didn't know whether he believed it or not: "Don't worry, someone will make arrangements."
"What about my brother? Did he agree too?"
Before the end of the world, Su Yu's family was a wealthy family. They were not as wealthy as the wealthy families, but they could buy villas and luxury cars without any hesitation. She was rebellious in high school and was unwilling to accept the arrangements made by her family. She secretly changed her application and went to college in S City, and was almost scolded to death by her family.
Who would have thought that at the end of the world, the only relative left was a cousin.
But it is still much better than having all the protagonists be orphans.
"Agreed."
Su Yu: “…”
What else can she say when even her only relative doesn't stand on her side?
…
The news that Su Yu was going to get married first spread in the base, and then spread more and more widely.
The wedding date is set for early spring next year.
A lot of people's hearts were broken.
On this day, her residence welcomed wave after wave of people, with care from leaders, blessings from colleagues, and even Colonel Yan Rui, whom she had known before, sent someone to deliver a gift.
"Sir Su, there are three people outside the door who claim to be your old friends and want to see you." The guard ran in to report.
Su Yu was fed up with the title of goddess and strictly forbade people around her to call her that.
Although 'Lord Su' doesn't sound much better.
"Old friends?" Su Yu couldn't remember which three old friends they were, so she looked at Xie Wei, "Senior, who could it be?"
Xie Wei raised his eyebrows slightly and was about to speak.
"I know!" Su Yu suddenly remembered.
After all, they were the protagonists and knew each other. Su Yu thought for a moment and said, "Let them in."
Seeing this, Xie Wei swallowed the words "If you don't know, then don't meet me" that were about to come out of his mouth.
It has been a long time since Su Yu last saw the three people, so long that she almost forgot what they looked like.
Zhao Shuming was dressed in casual clothes and looked much calmer.
Ye Jinshu's face looked very cold, unlike his previous gentle and smiling face.
Lu Xia grew her hair long and tied it up low with a pink diamond hairband. She remained silent, and her facial features were softer than before.
All three of them were very different from what I had imagined.
While Su Yu was looking at them, they were also looking at Su Yu and the other two.
Not much has changed from before.
"Long time no see." Su Yu's attitude wasn't cold, but it wasn't very warm either.
Haven't seen it for a long time, and I can't get excited.
The three of them denied it in their hearts. They often saw Su Yu's face on the screen of the base, so it couldn't be said that they had not seen her for a long time.
The other two didn't say anything, so Zhao Shuming had to step out and say, "Long time no see."
"I heard that you and the captain are getting married. Congratulations. I wish you and the captain a long and happy marriage."
Xie Wei raised his eyelids and looked at Zhao Shuming. There was someone who could speak.
"Thank you." Su Yu held the posture of a goddess of the base, very noble, and gestured to the sofa opposite, "Don't stand, sit down quickly."
Xie Wei seemed to be determined to carry out his gigolo life to the end, and Su Yu was always the one making the decisions when there was no need to use force.
Su Yu suspected many times that he was just using this as an excuse to be lazy.
"Why didn't Xu Yao come?" Su Yu asked casually.
All three of them were silent.
Zhao Shuming spoke with difficulty: "He is dead."
Su Yu's eyes widened slightly, as if she was a little surprised.
"I'm sorry. I don't know."
The group of protagonists who were abandoned by the protagonist don't seem to be having a good time.
In the original plot, they were so successful following the male protagonist and were able to walk around the base with their own hands. But after leaving the male protagonist, are they doing so badly?
"It's okay. We didn't tell you and the captain."
Zhao Shuming is still used to calling Xie Wei the captain.
The three of them sat for a while and then said goodbye, as if they had just come to congratulate.
Back then, there were six of them traveling together, but now there are only five left. Things and people have changed, and everything has become different.
Lu Xia looked at them deeply and finally gave up.
“Bless you.”
After saying that, she turned around quickly, leaving a trace of red at the corner of her eyes.
Ye Jinshu nodded to the two of them and said, "Bless you."
He and Lu Xia went out one after another.
Zhao Shuming was the last to leave. His voice was slightly choked. "Captain, Su Yu, I'm going back to S City. Lu Xia is also going back to C City. Ye Jinshu said he hasn't decided where to go yet. Anyway, we may not have many chances to meet again in the future. Take care of yourselves."
The sofa in front of me was empty.
I feel inexplicably sad.
Suddenly, a strong arm held her waist, and her head was spinning. Su Yu moved from the sofa to Xie Wei's arms, with her legs spread out to the sides and sitting astride him.
"Can't bear to leave?" An ambiguous voice came from above my head.
In an instant, all the sadness and emotion disappeared, and Su Yu's heart was filled with alarm: "No!"
Xie Wei chuckled: "I was just asking casually, why are you so nervous?"
Su Yu: "...Who's nervous?"
★In the early spring of the following year, the wedding was held as planned and broadcast live across the entire network. Major bases and cities that were gradually recovering their vitality broadcast the event on big screens.
Now, Xie Weizheng’s position as husband is completely secure.
In S City, Zhao Shuming silently blessed in his heart.
In City C, Lu Xia looked at Xie Wei with eyes full of tenderness, and her heart was slightly moved, but it soon calmed down and she turned her eyes away from him.
"Let's go."
Ye Jinshu looked at her and said, "Let's go."
No one expected that these two people, who had been separated for several years, would end up together.
Ye Jinshu said that he hadn't decided where he wanted to go, so he followed Lu Xia to City C. Without the male lead, the supporting actor finally succeeded in taking over.
In the third year of the Dawn Era, mankind completely recovered.
Various forces have been reintegrated, cities have regained their vitality, and the population has slowly increased. Although it has not yet returned to the level before the end of the world, everything is developing in a positive direction.
"Boss, give me two meat buns."
After the hot steam, the boss smiled innocently: "Five dollars."
Xie Wei handed over the money, took the bun and gave it to Su Yu: "Eat it."
Su Yu took one in each hand, took a bite of this one, then took a bite of that one, and finally had half of it left. She threw it to Xie Wei and said in a bossy manner, "Help me eat it."
Xie Wei raised his eyelids to look at her, took the bun silently, and ate it in two or three bites.
Su Yu playfully pulled Xie Wei's sleeve and was about to say something when a child suddenly ran past and almost bumped into her.
A woman was chasing after him.
"Stop right there, you little bastard. You failed the supernatural test again, and you dare to lie to me with fake scores."
The supernatural power test is a new term.
The end of the world, with more and more newborns, people are surprised to find that 50% of children will awaken special powers around the age of ten.
Leaders took it seriously immediately.
After discussion, schools for people with special abilities were established in various places. In addition to the major subjects, "special abilities" was also a very important subject.
Maybe it is true as the system said, this world will develop into a technological cultivation or technological superpower plane in the future.
The child was too scared to stop, but he refused to admit defeat: "If I don't lie to you, I'll get beaten."
The woman said fiercely: "You will be beaten now too."
The woman caught up with him in a few steps, carrying the child like a chicken, and slapped him on the butt twice. The miserable crying sounded from the street to the end.
Su Yu reluctantly looked away, still feeling terrified: "Fortunately I don't have any special abilities, so I don't have to take the exam."
Xie Wei couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.
The noisy and lively voices in his ears and the steaming water vapor from the bun stall intertwined together. Xie Wei reached out to wipe the sauce off the corner of Su Yu's mouth, then hooked his waist and pulled her into his arms.
"Wake up, you don't need to take an exam even if you have superpowers."
Su Yu suddenly remembered that she was no longer a child who needed to worry about her grades.
She happily took a bite of the candied haws she had just bought: "That's true."
Xie Wei rubbed her head, and Su Yu's beautiful smile was reflected in his dark and deep eyes. Behind her were the faces of ordinary people with simple smiles.
Xie Wei suddenly felt that ending the apocalypse was the right choice.
The atmosphere of worldly life is what soothes the hearts of ordinary people the most.
