The rain dripped on the window, the coconut trees outside were blown to the side by the roaring typhoon, and the wind and thunder roared in the air. Looking from afar, on the turbulent sea, a fishing boat was bobbing up and down in the waves.
It was surprising.
Even now, there were still people who didn't know what was going on outside and were still going about their daily lives step by step.
Coro City was already in chaos, and Penglai City …
Not only Xin, from Nouveau York to Shangjin, all the cities sank into the dusk of the apocalypse.
Most people already gave up.
In any case, without a ticket, it was impossible to board the ship. Other than offering blessings or curses to those already on the ship, there was only so much they could do.
Devout people chose to overcome the difficulties with their god at the last moment. Some people chose to sit with their family at the last moment and enjoy the last dinner. People who gave up on themselves exchanged their remaining money for alcohol or things they didn't dare to try before …
At this moment, there seemed to be nothing worthy of reverence.
The future of this planet was like the torrential rain outside the window. As far as the eye could see, there was a haze, so heavy that it was suffocating.
Standing in front of the window, Sun Jiao looked at the storm outside and sighed. Her finger moved away from the cold glass window.
Happy times were so short.
She didn't expect to have to say goodbye to this beautiful new world.
How should she put it?
The past four years were like a dream.
Xia Shiyu walked behind Sun Jiao as she worriedly looked at Sun Jiao's back and asked softly.
"Are you worried about him?"
Out of Xia Shiyu's expectation, Sun Jiao smiled and shook her head.
She read the surprised expression on Xia Shiyu's face and explained softly.
"I believe his mood should be the same as mine."
"What do you mean by the same?"
"Of course, the mood to see him." Sun Jiao's right hand gently stroked her slightly bulging belly. She looked down at the little life in the womb and smiled. "He will definitely return to my side, so there is nothing to worry about."
"This … is really enviable."
Xia Shiyu sighed softly with a defeated expression on her face.
As for whether he was jealous or not, he had already eaten all the vinegar he should have felt four years ago.
She didn't have any jealousy, she was just envious of the happy smile on Sun Jiao's face. If the person who was pregnant with this little life was himself, then this expression that would make one feel happy just by looking at it would definitely appear on his face.
"Did you see if it was a boy or a girl?" Xia Shiyu changed the topic.
Sun Jiao shook his head.
"Why don't you take a look? Lin Lin should be able to do it. "
"Because …"
Sun Jiao lowered her eyes, and the corner of her mouth curved up with a gentleness that had never been seen on her face. "I want to share the joy of that moment with him."
Xia Shiyu still wanted to say something, but the sound of a helicopter came from outside the house.
Jumping off the helicopter, Ayesha quickly walked into the house, threw her raincoat on the hook at the door, and wiped the rain off her face. Seeing Ayesha walk into the room, Xia Shiyu immediately greeted her with concern.
"Has everything been arranged?"
"SS Origin has departed. The target is the Alpha Centauri System. After leaving the Earth-Moon system, it will enter radio silence. Our people are already on board and will contact us after the hibernation ends … if it is still necessary by then. "
"Is that so?"
Xia Shiyu looked at the sky outside the window. Behind the heavy dark clouds was the last hope of human civilization.
Fortunately, this heavy mission didn't need to be carried by them.
She let out a sigh and said.
"We should also go."
Regardless of the outcome, he would be there waiting for them.
…
On SS Origin.
A man with a square face stood in front of the transparent floor-to-ceiling window with his hands behind his back, staring in the direction of Divine Land. At this time, an old man with a cane walked behind him. His sparse white hair was filled with the vicissitudes of time.
Liu Xiangguo, the head of the Liu family in the capital. Compared to more than a decade ago, he was no longer young.
Not only the Liu family, but even the Wang family that once offended Jiang Chen was also on the list. No matter how fierce the internal struggle was, at least in the eyes of outsiders, they were united. Of course, it didn't matter to discuss these issues now.
No matter what identity they once had, from the moment they boarded SS Origin, everything had nothing to do with them.
"Take a few more glances, you won't be able to see anymore."
"… We will come back."
"Come back? Hehe, at that time, the Liu family won't be the Liu family anymore. "
The old man shook his head with a smile, and a hint of reluctance flashed in his turbid pupils.
But in the end, he still shook his head and didn't say anything. He dragged his frail body and walked in the direction of the hibernation room.
…
Los Santos, in a marble mansion by the sea, a drunk man was kicked under the window by a long, wheat-colored leg.
"Pain, pain … ouch … Jennifer? What are you doing? A new way to say hello? "
"Dammit, we missed the flight! You liar, didn't you say you had a ticket?! You also said that there would be a sky shuttle coming to pick you up? " Jennifer, with messy hair, jumped out of the bed and grabbed Robert's collar. Her red eyes were bloodshot.
"I didn't lie to you, a ticket … I looked for that, and they did send me a copy."
"You liar, you don't even know who Jiang Chen is. The president of Celestial Trade bought firearms from you? And crossed the Iraqi desert with you? Oh … God, I should've believed those rumors. You can't believe a single word of Robert's nonsense, it's full of lies. "
"Burp — found it." Robert took out a crystal card from under the pillow, rubbed his messy hair, and muttered, "I actually threw it under the pillow. I've said it before, I never lie to women. "
Jennifer lunged forward and snatched the crystal card from Robert's hand.
"Don't be like this, my baby. That's just a ticket stub. I've already sold the identification chip inside … I asked that generous guy to let me keep this as a souvenir. I want to give it to my daughter … or son as a family heirloom."
What Robert wanted to say was that even if you took this to Celestial City, SS Origin would have already flown away.
"Sold it?" Jennifer was stunned.
"Yes." Robert nodded seriously, and a smile that he thought was quite charming appeared on his face. "I sold it for a good price, and a generous billionaire is willing to buy it from me for 50 billion World dollars. I have contacted Forbes, and they will consider placing me on the next issue of the rich list and spend a whole page to introduce me as a newly promoted billionaire. "
"Next issue? Are you an idiot? Will there be a next issue? " Jennifer said desperately as she avoided Robert's hug and scratched his chest. "You stupid guy, you said you love me, but you …"
One ticket could carry one adult and two minors as their family members.
To be honest, Jennifer didn't love Robert at all. She only agreed to his pursuit because she wanted to get on the last train of SS Origin. But now, Robert told her that this ticket had been sold by him, just to exchange for a pile of waste paper that might become useless tomorrow …
That's insane!
"There will be, trust me." Robert put his hand on Jennifer's shoulder and said with a smile, "Because I'm the owner of Forbes now, I bought them."
It wasn't just the banknotes that depreciated.
What depreciated faster than the banknotes were the stocks of those companies …
"You're crazy! You're ridiculous! "
Jennifer cursed as she put on her clothes, slammed the door, and stormed out. She even forgot to put on her underwear …
It didn't matter.
The end of the world was coming, who cared about that?
"Hey! Don't be like this, I'm not kidding … Sh * t, you'll definitely regret it! I swear! "
Robert looked at the supercar driving away and shouted as he tried to persuade it to stay.
Seeing that the car didn't turn back, he shook his head helplessly.
"Fu * k … My new car."
