Chapter 60 Confession
Li Chengyi also returned to his tent.
He opened his sleeping bag, lay down beside Bai Zhi, and held her in his arms.
"It's okay. They haven't found the person yet, so they should have given up. We will return to the base after the mission is over tomorrow. I told Chen Tong that we will stay in the base for the next few days and go out for missions after the incident is over."
Li Chengyi's gentle and calm voice slowly soothed Bai Zhi's emotions.
"Yeah. Okay." Bai Zhi had no objection to Li Chengyi's arrangement.
She really wanted to rest for a while.
During this period of time, she was really exhausted because she had to guard against Hu Kang's troubles.
Such a thing happened again today, and she really needed some time to rest and adjust her mentality.
Moreover, she just found out after returning to the camp that it was probably because Hu Kang died that the progress bar of "Plot 1, the story line of the reborn male protagonist who abuses the scum and takes revenge" has risen to 80%.
On the one hand, it once again confirms that Li Chengyi is indeed the reborn male protagonist of this story line.
On the other hand, it also shows that Hu Kang, the culprit of Li Chengyi's painful experience in his previous life, has indeed been successfully resolved.
There is no such absurd thing as the corpse after death.
The remaining 20%, according to Bai Zhi's experience of reading the text, should be through Li Chengyi's better and better life in the future, which forms a sharp contrast with the tragic past of his previous life. Over time, it will slowly accumulate and grow.
It is estimated that half is the career line and half is the emotional line.
It was the same reason as before when she didn't know who the protagonist of this plot line was, and the progress bar inexplicably rose.
There was no shortage of points, and there was no rush to complete the melon-eating mission.
The biggest crisis at the moment, Hu Kang's conspiracy, had also been resolved.
Her life with Li Chengyi could return to its previous pace.
No longer having to worry about her own safety, Bai Zhi felt a lot more at ease.
As for the soldiers of Chen Tong's team who helped find people today, Bai Zhi and Li Chengyi discussed it, and went back to tell Feng Mo and Chen Tong to treat them to three days of free meals at the snack bar as a token of their gratitude.
Bai Zhi didn't know whether the remaining members of Hu Kang's team knew Li Chengyi in their previous lives.
What roles did they play in Li Chengyi's tragedy in his previous life?
But Li Chengyi did not mention how to treat them, so Bai Zhi could only ignore it. Maybe they would be strangers in the future.
Bai Zhi thought that Li Chengyi would keep the secret of his rebirth for the rest of his life.
Unexpectedly, on the second day after returning to the base.
Bai Zhi woke up from a nap and sat at the dining table, eating the brunch he prepared.
Li Chengyi sat next to her, accompanied her for dinner, and told her his past in a calm tone.
Of course, Li Chengyi made some changes to his rebirth.
But just like the "I Have a Friend" series, "I had a dream" is the classic opening line that the reborn often use to tell their own stories.
Li Chengyi: "One year before the apocalypse, I had a dream.
"In the dream, one year later, the world experienced several intensive meteorite showers, and then some monsters that could hurt people appeared, and the injured people would also be infected and turned into monsters.
"In just one month, the whole world was in chaos. The survivors called these monsters zombies. The virus that can turn people into living dead through wounds is called a zombie virus.
"In addition to zombies, those meteorite showers also brought another kind of change to mankind, called superpowers.
"In my dream, after the apocalypse came, I was lucky enough to have superpowers called ice and space by the survivors.
"Because my parents died early, the person I have always been closest to is my college roommate Hu Kang, who works in the same company as me.
“His family lives in City D. His parents turned into zombies at the beginning of the apocalypse, and like me, he has no relatives. Because of our long-established friendship, it was natural for the two of us to travel together in the apocalypse in the dream.
“The fame accumulated during my student days, coupled with my identity as a superpower, made many of my schoolmates and colleagues in the same company come to us after the apocalypse.
“We recruited soldiers along the way, and less than a month after the apocalypse began, we established a small independent base in the suburbs of City D, and it slowly grew in the following years.
“But in the fifth year of the apocalypse, the base was hit by a sudden wave of zombies.
"On the day the zombie tide came to the base, I was betrayed by my roommate Hu Kang, whom I had always trusted, while I was killing zombies. After my superpowers were exhausted, I died under the bites of the zombies.
"When I woke up, I thought it was just an absurd dream.
"But as I woke up, the ice superpowers and space appeared, which made me wonder whether I had predicted the future, or died in the zombie tide in my previous life and was reborn with superpowers.
"The betrayal of my friends in my previous life in the dream made it impossible for me to get along with the people around me as before.
"So I resigned from the investment bank in City D and moved to City C, cutting off contact with my former friends and colleagues.
"In the year since I moved to City C, I sold my assets and stockpiled a lot of supplies that I knew about in the apocalypse through my dreams.
"Originally, I planned that if the apocalypse really came a year later, I would be alone in the apocalypse, hiding my own space, pretending not to have offensive water abilities, and no longer forming a team to build a base. Instead, I would join the official base of City C according to the memories in the dream.
"But I didn't expect that I would meet you just as the apocalypse began, and all my plans were overturned.
"I'm very fortunate that my future life will be completely different from that in my dreams.
"I'm also very grateful that the decision to move from City D to City C allowed me to meet you.
"You know, when we first met, all your thoughts were clearly written on your face, as clean and pure as a blank sheet of paper, but it was also because of this that I dared to keep you by my side.
"It is also your simplicity, optimism, tenacity, and honesty that slowly made up for the confidence and trust in getting along with people that I lost in the dream of being betrayed by my friends.
"For me, every day with you is easy and happy, which makes me indulge and feel greedy.
"It may be an ordinary day for you, but it is a step-by-step redemption for me.
"After meeting Hu Kang again, I was worried that our peaceful and beautiful life would be broken by his appearance.
"So even if Sun Yunyun's incident had not happened today, I would have planned to deal with him as soon as possible and then confess everything to you. "
I hope you will not have any misunderstandings because of my past concealment, and don't dislike me and leave me because of it."
