If one hears the truth in the morning, one can die without regrets in the evening.
Gao Qi was a person who liked to think. When he left the city in He Jun's car, he was thinking about where the city would go. When he saw the wilderness, he was thinking about how the people in the wilderness would survive.
Young people were naive and hot-blooded, but they often did not know how naive they were. Gao Qi was the same. He was happy that he understood something, and worried about the future of the world. However, when he thought about the problem he was most concerned about, he quickly focused all his attention on his own problem.
The first cataclysm brought about a breakthrough in technology, the second cataclysm brought about supernatural abilities, so what would the third cataclysm bring?
If it was not an illusion, then what were the vortices and light spots he saw? Where did the regret and sadness come from?
Gao Qi, who was puzzled, felt like his brain had turned into paste.
Gao Qi was a very focused person. When he was deep in thought, he would ignore everything else. This was his strength, but sometimes it was also his weakness.
"Why is the weather so weird? It's so cold all of a sudden. I don't know what's going on."
"Brother, how old are you this year?"
"Little Gao, are you cold? Can you turn up the heater a little?"
He Jun intended to have a good relationship with Gao Qi, because there were some things he did not know, but Gao Qi knew. After Han Ruofeng told him those things, he believed that Gao Qi's relationship with Han Ruofeng and Huang Fei was not ordinary. He was definitely not an ordinary person.
However, he did not get a response after several attempts. He Jun naturally would not talk to himself again and again. He was willing to communicate with Gao Qi in a flattering manner, but it did not mean that he would really beg Gao Qi to talk to him.
In fact, it was not that Gao Qi did not want to talk to He Jun, he just did not hear him.
Finally, the car stopped abruptly. Gao Qi, who was leaning forward violently, hit the windshield directly. Then he looked around in shock and said in surprise, "Ah, what's wrong? Are we there yet? "
He Jun turned to look at Gao Qi and said, "We're here. What are you thinking about?"
"Uh, I got distracted. Brother He, what should I do next?"
The car stopped in front of a rusty iron gate. It should have been dismantled from somewhere else. Surrounding the iron gate was a three-meter-high wall, and on the wall were the words' Farm No. 7, Do Not Approach '.
"You don't have to do anything. You're the boss here." After saying that, He Jun pressed the car horn. Soon, the big iron gate opened from the inside. A person slowly walked to the front of the car.
He Jun pushed the door open and got out of the car. He took out his ID and waved it at the person who came out of the car. He said seriously, "He Jun from the second group of the Danger Control Department. This is my ID. Ask your Field Officer to come out."
"That's me."
Judging from his appearance, the person who opened the door didn't look like a field officer. His face was wrinkled, his clothes were dirty, and his face was tired. If he wasn't wearing the city's uniform, he would look like a wasteland dweller.
He Jun looked at the field officer and said, "You're Wang Zihao?"
"I am. What can I do for you?"
He Jun's mouth twitched. He pointed at Gao Qi and said, "This is Gao Qi. He's the deputy captain of the guards assigned to Farm No. 7. He's the little brother of Han Ruofeng, the leader of the second group of the Danger Control Department. He's also a good brother of Deputy Captain Huang. I won't say anything else. Ask your Field Officer to come out and greet me."
Wang Zihao was about to speak when Gao Qi hurriedly said, "Brother He, don't be so troublesome. You should quickly unload your things and go back. The city gates are about to close. It'll be troublesome if you're late."
When they left the city, the City Guard said that the city gates would close soon and that they wouldn't know when they would open again. He Jun obviously didn't take those words to heart. However, he still had to complete the task given to him by Han Ruofeng. So no matter how anxious he was, he couldn't just leave Gao Qi behind and run away.
As for Gao Qi, he didn't want He Jun to strut around here. He Jun would leave after a while, and he would have to continue working with the people of Farm No. 7.
He Jun thought for a moment and said, "That's fine. I'll drive in and unload the things."
Gao Qi hurriedly said, "Don't drive in. There's not much to unload. Brother He, let's not waste time. I'll be very embarrassed if I have to trouble you to send me back."
He Jun smiled and said, "Alright. We'll have plenty of chances to meet again in the future. I'll leave first. It'll be troublesome if the city gates close. Hey, call a few people over to unload the things. What are you waiting for?"
Wang Zihao took two steps forward and said in a low voice, "The captain of the guards can't receive you. He's dead …"
He Jun was immediately stunned. Wang Zihao pointed at a mound not far away and said, "He's buried over there."
He Jun's facial muscles twitched twice. Then, he subconsciously glanced at Gao Qi and said, "Why is it so short? When did he die?"
"The day before yesterday. I reported it, but no one said how to solve it. Why don't you help me solve it?"
He Jun exhaled and said, "About this …"
Gao Qi immediately said, "Brother He, let's unload the things first. We'll talk about it while we unload the things."
Gao Qi's equipment began to be unloaded. There were two large bags, a rifle, two ammunition boxes, and a green plastic box.
Even his belongings could show his status. Wang Zihao turned around and shouted at the metal gate, "Everyone, come out and unload the things. Hurry up!"
After unloading the things from the vehicle and waiting for the people to come out one after another, Gao Qi quickly said, "Brother He, don't waste time. Hurry up and go back. Come and find me when you're free."
He Jun laughed heartily. He patted Gao Qi's arm and said loudly to the crowd of people who had numb expressions, "Remember this, I'll kill whoever dares to offend my brother!"
Time was indeed tight. After saying those words fiercely, He Jun got into the car and said loudly to Gao Qi, "I'll get going first, brother."
Gao Qi waved goodbye and only put down his arm when He Jun's car was several meters away.
He Jun's personality was not high. He was noisy, but he seemed to be a good person. At the very least, he was quite enthusiastic.
Gao Qi, who was finally done, turned around and looked at the people behind him. He smiled and said, "I'm sorry, everyone. Thank you for your trouble."
Wang Zihao nodded and said blankly, "Move the things inside. Be careful."
Gao Qi picked up a big bag with one hand and a rifle with the other. At this time, no one snatched the things from his hands, but a total of six people quietly carried the things and walked through the iron gate in front of him.
After passing through the gate, they found a rather large courtyard. Houses of various sizes were scattered in an irregular manner. The doors all opened inwards, and the houses were quite tall. It seemed like the roofs could be used as bunkers. There was also a tall watchtower in the courtyard that was at least ten meters tall.
Gao Qi looked around as he walked. Wang Zihao said softly, "Pick a house to live in. This is my house, that's theirs. The rest of the houses are empty. You can live in whichever one you like."
Wang Zihao pointed at the houses with his finger. These houses were not built side by side or in piles. They were spread out in a plum blossom shape. The only purpose of building the houses like this was to use them as fortifications and there were no blind spots.
It was a good thing to have more houses, but the problem was that there should be 50 people here. How could there be so many empty houses?
"Wang Chang, I want to ask, how many people are there in Farm No. 7?"
Wang Zihao said listlessly, "Originally there were 50 people. Now there are only six. Oh, including you, there are seven."
Gao Yang's eyes widened. Then he cried out, "Six? What about the others? "
Wang Zihao said blankly, "Dead. Eight died the day before yesterday. All eight of the guards are dead. There are 40 workers and 10 guards here. But now … you know."
"How could this happen?!"
Wang Zihao seemed to be expressionless. He said calmly, "They couldn't stay here any longer. They went hunting. They didn't dare to go because there were too few people, so eight of them went together. In the end, they encountered an exotic beast and all of them died. Captain Gao, which house do you want to live in? It's all clean."
Gao Qi could get rid of the vice captain and become the captain of the guards. Other than shock, he was still shocked. He was not afraid because he did not have the time to be afraid.
"Uh, um, is there a table in the house? There's a table in that house. I'll live in that one. "
Wang Zihao nodded. "Yes, this way."
The houses looked the same from the outside. The doors were all made of metal. Wang Zihao pushed open a metal door and said, "See if it's okay. Only my room and this one have a table. There's nothing else."
The room was not very big, but it was divided into an inner and outer room. In the inner room, there was a wooden bed, a wardrobe, and a wood stove. In the outer room, there was a wooden table, a chair, a washstand, and a plastic washbasin.
There was no furniture, but the room was clean and tidy. The special thing was that there was a steep staircase in the corner of the outer room. There was a passageway on the roof. One could go up to the roof and fight at any time.
"I'll take this room. Please put down your things. Thank you."
The workers put down Gao Qi's things and then turned to leave. Wang Zihao also said softly, "There's no captain of the guards now. You're the captain. I'll take you to check the ammunition storage. You just have to sign and hand it over."
Gao Qi thought for a while and said, "Wang Chang, can you do it later? No, can you do it tomorrow? I'm so tired now. I want to rest early. "
"Okay, then do you want to eat tonight?"
"Uh, I don't think so."
"Okay, then I won't cook for you. You should rest early. If there's anything, you can find me. See you tomorrow."
Wang Zihao left. He was not enthusiastic, but he had done what he needed to do. Gao Qi knew that he should have a good chat with him first to understand the situation of the farm, but he really could not wait.
Gao Qi could not wait to sleep. Since the last time he saw those dots of light was after he fell asleep, he might be able to see them again if he fell asleep now.
Since there was no one to ask about what happened to him, and he could not ask anyone, he could only slowly explore it himself.
