Fu Tianhe left the clinic, his mind full of touching imaginations about Jiu Yue's life experience, which were constantly being embellished by him to become more and more outrageous.

With tears in his eyes, he got on the bus absent-mindedly, found an empty seat at random, got off the bus ten minutes later, and walked for a long distance before realizing belatedly that something seemed wrong with the surrounding scenery.

Fu Tianhe looked around and saw rows of old buildings with rusted pipes above them. All the leaking parts at the joints had been replaced with new parts. The ground was still very dirty, but there were no longer large areas of water.

Alpha then suddenly realized that he did not go back to his own doghouse, but went directly to the nearest station to September's home.

Fu Tianhe: …………

Fu Tianhe was amused by his own confusing behavior. He slapped his face with both hands to make his mind clearer and was about to go back.

When he turned around, he saw the Omega boy standing behind him.

The pair of amber eyes peeked out from between the mask and the hat, staring at him silently.

Fu Tianhe's face suddenly became hot.

He opened his mouth and subconsciously wanted to explain that he was not a pervert and did not come here on purpose, but his brain was not yet able to organize the words, so he could only "ah" twice.

Chen Ci's gaze dropped down to the crossbody bag on Fu Tianhe's waist. The outer layer of the bag was buckled, but from the outline, it should contain wrenches and some spare parts.

Was it really him who repaired it?

"Aren't you going to work?" Chen Ci asked.

"I finished the work ahead of schedule this afternoon." Fu Tianhe finally regained his ability to speak, blushing and saying, "Well... I didn't mean to come here."

Chen Ci didn't understand Fu Tianhe's shyness. He stared at Alpha strangely for a few seconds. Fu Tianhe's face turned so red that it even covered the inexplicable red color in his eyes.

Is it because of the heat? Or is there something wrong with your body?

Chen Ci asked him, "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

"Ah? No, no, no, I'm fine." Fu Tianhe quickly waved his hands, trying to calm himself down, but the heart in his chest beat faster and he could even feel the blood rushing in his veins.

Since Fu Tianhe said it was okay, Chen Ci didn't ask any more questions. He also needed to go find Alpha.

This saves a lot of trouble.

Chen Ci said bluntly: "I may not go to study in the next few days."

Fu Tianhe was quite surprised: "Not going? Do you have other things to do?"

"Um."

The fever that he had tried so hard to reduce seemed to cool down all of a sudden. Fu Tianhe heard his own voice becoming a little nervous: "Can you tell me what's going on?"

He finally got some information about September and understood more about Omega, but he couldn't meet her every night!

Jiuyue obviously likes learning mechanics so much and even picked up the textbooks yesterday. What could have made him put it on hold? Was he scared by the argument last night?

"I want to go around." Before Fu Tianhe could come up with something even more outrageous, Chen Ci explained, "Look at other places in Cinnabar."

It turned out to be just a trip. Fu Tianhe breathed a sigh of relief. Jiuyue also liked to go out for a walk before. At first, he thought it was Jiuyue's first time to come to the No. 13 information processing area.

Jiuyue no longer goes to Aipeng to study, which means he can't see each other every day.

Fu Tianhe took only a second to make a decision: "Can I go with you?"

Chen Ci: "Aren't you going to work?"

Fu Tianhe smiled and said, "I'm a temporary worker, paid weekly. I've only been in Chensha for a few months. I was working somewhere else before, so it's not easy to find a permanent job."

"It will delay your earning money."

"That's fine. I've saved a little money, and I want to go out and have a look. Wouldn't it be better if the two of us could keep each other company?"

Fu Tianhe looked like he really wanted to go with him.

Alpha works and sleeps every day. He also has to go to the garbage dump to find materials and compete with others. It is indeed very hard, so it is normal for him to want to go out and relax.

As for how many other intentions were contained in this, Chen Ci was too lazy to think about it and didn't care.

Seeing that Chen Ci remained silent, Fu Tianhe softened his tone: "Let me go too, so we can take care of each other and it will save money."

Chen Ci wanted to tell him that he was no longer short of money and that he still had tens of thousands of Augie's in his account.

But facing the Alpha's eager eyes, he still kept his lips tightly closed and said nothing.

Fu Tianhe was a head taller than Chen Ci. He stared at the boy with his eyes wide open, a redness still on his face. His black eyes reminded Chen Ci of the beagle in the laboratory, which would also lie on its cage and look at him with wet eyes.

Countless times, Chen Ci passed silently under such eager gazes, leaving the sob of loss behind forever.

"Whatever you want." Chen Ci heard himself say this.

"That's great!" Fu Tianhe breathed a sigh of relief and became excited again, instantly forgetting all the embarrassment just now. "Then I'll go back and pack my luggage. When will we set off?"

"Let's get in touch tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

Fu Tianhe calculated the funds. After resigning, he would lose his main source of income, but he made a lot of money from selling the Samuelton component set in the afternoon. After paying the doctor's medicine, he still had a lot left. If he saved a little, it would be enough for him and Jiuyue to spend for more than a month.

At this time, Fu Tianhe didn't know that Chen Ci was actually a little rich boy.

"You were originally planning to look for me, right?" Fu Tianhe said, "Now that we've met, why don't we go together and buy some things for the trip?"

"Okay." This is exactly what Chen Ci meant.

The two of them took a bus to the nearest commercial street and sat side by side at the back of the bus. Chen Ci always felt that Fu Tianhe was really impulsive, so he asked again: "Is your work really okay?"

"I never planned to work for a long time, otherwise I wouldn't have just found a job as a mechanic." Fu Tianhe's nonchalant look made Chen Ci feel relieved.

He didn't want to delay others because of himself.

Before, Chen Ci would never ask too many questions, and other people's situations had nothing to do with him.

But perhaps thinking of the words on the title page of the engineering book, Chen Ci asked, "Were you somewhere else before?"

"Well, I just came here from another beacon a few months ago."

Fu Tianhe brushed it off lightly, then became excited and started talking about something else:

"If you want to travel, you must try sailing on the sea. There are many islands formed on the top of the ridges, each with a unique view. If you are lucky, you can even go to the island to have a look."

This was the first time Chen Ci heard Fu Tianhe talk about his past.

For Fu Tianhe, September is shrouded in charming mist, which makes people want to explore. For Chen Ci, Fu Tianhe is also shrouded in mystery.

The nearest beacon to cinnabar is blue alum on the Arabian Plateau, which is nearly 7,000 kilometers away. It takes 8 hours by aircraft and about eleven or twelve days by boat.

What made Alpha travel across the ocean and come to other beacons alone?

If it was Chen Nian sitting here, he might have started to get things out of Fu Tianhe.

But Chen Ci did not make too many guesses. He himself was not a person with excessive curiosity, and it was a miracle that he asked one more question.

Fu Tianhe whispered about what he saw during the voyage. The ocean that engulfed the world was actually full of dangers beneath its calm surface.

Countless primitive creatures live there, and they have merged with the various machines left in human cities, becoming unimaginable. They are no longer the fish and shrimp that humans could catch in the sea thousands of years ago.

The original creatures show strong intentions to attack humans, or in other words, they have a strong desire for human creations, and the mechanical parts of the ship are the best food for them.

Anyone who values ​​life a little would not choose to sail across the ocean. Only those who are really short of money would take this risk.

It was not easy for Fu Tianhe to safely reach Cinnabar after more than ten days of sailing.

He must have a lot of travel experience, and it's good to have a companion who is reliable and not annoying.

The two of them quickly got off the car at the commercial street. Fu Tianhe was indeed experienced and took Chen Ci straight to that outdoor adventure store.

"What kind of trip do you want? Just sightseeing or exploring?"

“Something exciting.”

Fu Tianhe was not surprised that Chen Ci made such a choice. He remembered that when he took the boy to the amusement park, Jiu Yue asked to ride the thrilling mine cart several times.

Beneath the silent and introverted appearance of Omega, there is a heart that yearns for freedom and adventure.

Fu Tianhe bought some necessary equipment for survival in the wild, including a climbing rope, a multi-purpose knife, a lighter, a tent, a sleeping bag, and a moisture-proof pad. He already had a flashlight at home, so he didn't need to spend more money.

Chen Ci was selecting food from the shelves. There were so many varieties of picnic cans and compressed foods that he was a little overwhelmed.

He took some canned food and selected a set of nutritional liquids, deliberately avoiding the strawberry flavor prepared specifically for Omegas.

Fu Tianhe went to ask the clerk if they had a vaporizer, and placed the other selected items in a basket next to the counter. Chen Ci took the opportunity to pay first.

The terminal vibrated, indicating that the transaction was completed. Chen Ci slowly stacked up the cans one by one, and Fu Tianhe took the vaporizer and returned to the front shop.

"These should be enough." Fu Tianhe counted them and was about to pay.

The clerk only scanned the last vaporizer: "The others have already been paid for."

“Paid?”

While Fu Tianhe was stunned, Chen Ci reached out and paid for the vaporizer that he had just cleaned.

"Let's go." Chen Ci said calmly.

Fu Tianhe came back to his senses: "No, why did you pay the money?"

Chen Ci looked at him strangely and said, "Shouldn't I pay for the things I need for my trip?"

Chen Ci's words made so much sense that Fu Tianhe didn't know what to say.

Having saved money but lost the opportunity to show off, Fu Tianhe could only pick up two huge bags and follow Chen Ci out of the store.

Fu Tianhe took a few steps and finally couldn't help but said: "These things should be very expensive, you don't have to feel embarrassed, it's not difficult for me to make money, you still have a family, and you have to-"

Fu Tianhe couldn't say the last words: "I still have to save money for medical expenses."

Because Chen Ci's wrist was across his eyes.

The boy's wrist was as delicate as porcelain, with round and protruding wrist bones, even bones and flesh, blue blood vessels faintly visible under the skin, and the texture of the skin clearly displayed in front of Fu Tianhe.

The structure of bones and muscles is more delicate than any machine. Fu Tianhe stared blankly at the porcelain white, and after a few seconds, he realized that Chen Ci had shown him the end.

He quickly moved his eyes towards the lit terminal screen and saw a string of numbers on it.

The first number is three, followed by ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, and tens of thousands.

More than 30,000 yuan in savings.

Fu Tianhe, whose balance is only one-third of Chen Ci's: ???

Fu Tianhe, who always felt that Jiuyue was short of money: ………………

So he is the only poor guy?!?!?
