Chapter 285 Thoughts (1/3)



After being electrocuted, the 'human-faced rabbit' fell completely to the ground.

After a while, seeing that the rabbit did not move, Brother Zhang immediately ordered someone to tie up the rabbit and send it back to the base.

When he looked at Lan Jin and the other three again, the way they seemed to want to say something but hesitated really made Lan Jin feel a little annoyed.

But it just so happened that Lan Jin didn't want to hear about this kind of thing at all. She quickly stopped him and said, "Don't say it. I don't want to hear it."

Zhang Ge didn't expect Lan Jin to react like this, but it was fine this way. "The less you know, the easier it will be to get out of this situation later. It's better not to talk about it. There's nothing else to do for now. You guys go in first. I'll call you after the contribution points are converted. You can just come over and claim them at the exchange office."

"Okay, Qiao Qiao and Grandma Ling are still halfway up the second floor. I'll go in first. Call us if you need anything."

After saying that, Lan Jin left without looking back, and the three people behind her immediately followed her steps. Although they were very curious about this matter, they were not children anymore and knew what questions they could ask and in what occasions.

Halfway up the second floor, Lan Jin and the others saw Nana standing ready at the stairs. When she saw that it was the four of them going upstairs, Nana immediately relaxed her guard and took two steps forward to meet them.

Grandma Ling took Lan Qiaoqiao by the hand and asked softly, "Is everything resolved?"

"It's solved, let's go back." Ling Jiang said.

Inside the rental house.

After the old man and the young man fell asleep after lunch, Ling Jiang and others immediately called Lan Jin to the living room and asked about what had just happened.

Lan Jin laughed and said, "I thought you weren't interested."

"How could I not be interested? I'm so stifled." Lao Gao was very excited, but worried about waking up Grandma Ling and Lan Qiaoqiao, so he could only lower his voice. Then he asked again, "What's going on? Why did you say that at the time? I don't understand."

Ling Jiang didn't really understand it either. "I don't really understand it either, but that rabbit just now was really creepy."

Ling Jiang and Lao Gao are not the type to think too much, so if it is not a life-threatening issue, they would not think too deeply about it. But this does not mean that they are stupid. Although they did not figure out the reason for Lan Jin's attitude just now, they still knew that there was obviously a problem.

Ling Jiang said, "Stop playing tricks on me and just tell me directly. I don't like to think about this."

"Where should I start?" Lan Jin really didn't know where to start for a moment.

Huang Jinghe, on the other hand, spoke bluntly, "Tell me everything you suspect and all your theories. Sister Lan, I've been feeling a lot of things aren't right lately. Although this apocalypse is a natural disaster beyond human control, I suspect some things are man-made."

Lan Jin's eyes flashed, and they both said, "Human-faced rabbit."

Sure enough, Huang Jinghe had the same idea as her.

But this kind of thing is too unbelievable. Ling Jiang and Lao Gao did not doubt that the two people opposite were lying, but they just wondered how a normal person could turn into a rabbit.

Lao Gao asked in confusion, "You two mean that the human-faced rabbit just now was created by human hands, so the rabbit body has a human face."

Ling Jiang then said, "Then what should we do? It seems like they're just doing experiments in the movies. Could this be a failed experiment?"

"If nothing unexpected happens, it should be." Lan Jin and Huang Jinghe replied at the same time.

Ling Jiang frowned. "Do you have any basis for saying that? You can't just say it for nothing. Although that face does look like a human, how could a good person become like that?"

Lan Jin said, "Don't you think that this apocalypse has been hinting at something being amiss since the very beginning?"

After Lao Gao pondered for a moment, he replied, "I have doubts, but I haven't thought about it too much. Mainly because everything has developed so naturally. Even if I don't think about it too much, I still have some doubts in my heart. But I always feel that these things are too far away from me, so I don't want to delve into them too much. I just think that living a good life is enough."

"You're right. I used to think so too." Lan Jin then echoed, "But after the apocalypse, everything really feels amiss. Everything is going too smoothly, as if it were all planned in advance."

Lan Jin listed all the doubts she had from the very beginning, when the end of the world had just arrived. The main reason was that because she was reborn and experienced the end of the world again, she suspected that she was definitely not the only reborn person in the world, so the impression was particularly deep.

"We all know that the end of the world began with an earthquake and a tsunami. J City isn't in an earthquake zone and doesn't have any sea, so these two disasters had no impact on us at all. I don't know what your neighborhood was like at the time, but in ours, within two minutes of the power outage, the radio blared, telling us to stay home and not move, and that staff would come to register.

Let’s not talk about registration for now. Let’s just say that the power just went out, less than two minutes ago. How did the radio come on? The radio equipment in our community cannot be used at all without power, so it definitely needs a generator. But no matter whether the community has it or not, it is impossible to plug it in immediately after the power outage and then broadcast to the residents.

Plus, the script read out on the radio didn't seem like something that was just spoken casually after the earthquake."

Huang Jinghe interjected, "It's like it was written in advance. Even the emotion when he was reading the script was the same. He was very calm."

Lan Jin continued, "That's right. Also, are the community working in the middle of the night? They usually work from 9 to 5. Even if they have to work overtime, it's impossible for them to all be working at the same time. Even if that's the case, it's impossible for everyone in the country to be working. So, this alone is not a mere coincidence, not to mention the subsequent door-to-door registration."

"When registering, the community staff not only checked the residence permit, but also the household registration booklet. This was a foreshadowing. After the flood, those who had nowhere to live on the lower floors were arranged to live in houses that were either extinct or already had tenants. Even if those who lived alone in their own houses, the higher-ups didn't arrange for anyone to move in.

Speaking of residence permits, we first check whether everyone has a residence permit. After confirmation, we start to activate the contribution point function and collect furniture at the door in exchange for contribution points. On the one hand, residents can earn contribution points, which can be used to buy meals in supermarkets and canteens later. On the other hand, after the furniture is recycled, it can not only be refurbished and reused, but also reduce the loss of materials.

Let me explain, it's a gimmick, pure gimmick. Otherwise, why wasn't there even a speck of debris left when we went to the supermarket and cafeteria after the acid rain? They must have known the acid rain was coming, so they evacuated in advance. Of course, the higher-ups didn't just stand by and watch, didn't they? They went to the community propaganda base, but those who could leave had already left, so those who didn't leave later... naturally can't be blamed."
