Chapter 63 - Noah\\\'s Ark 13
Li Hong rubbed his eyes and walked out of the room half-awake. When he wanted to ask Ding Yan for a cup to rinse his mouth, he was startled by the young man standing in the living room helping Ding Yan’s mother set a plate.
She looked intently several times before she was sure that the handsome young man with short hair was really Rongsheng, and not someone else.
Just cut his hair, revealing his swan-like neck-Rong Sheng is still wearing the cheap dying T-shirts and jeans in the supermarket, but at this time, he doesn’t seem to have any attributes that would mistake him for a woman.
The last touch of softness brought to him by the long hair disappeared.
The young man stands here, his eyebrows are still delicate and soft, but for no reason people feel reliable, even dependent.
…Rong Sheng is a person who is strong enough to make people feel dependent, but in the past this kind of emotion was born when he showed his power far beyond ordinary people, instead of what he is now, he just quietly looks at you and smiles, you actually Everyone feels that there is nothing he can’t do in this world.
Rongsheng is beauty, and his beauty transcends gender—this is the voice of Rongsheng with long hair.
Now he has cut short hair and is full of heroic hair. It is still the beauty that attracts the opposite sex-but this time, no one will misunderstand his gender.
Ding Yan didn’t know when he stood next to Li Hong. He noticed Li Hong’s absence, and he couldn’t help showing his face.
Ding Yan clenched a fist and coughed lightly, and showed off to Li Hong: “How is it? My craftsmanship.”
Li Hong was silent for a while, and said: “I said how the hair is the same as the dog chewing, it turned out to be the scissors you cut.”
Ding Yan was dissatisfied: “What is a dog chewing? This is broken hair! There are levels! What is bad about my craftsmanship? In H City for so many years, your bangs and my sideburns, when did I fix it for the two of us alone? “
Li Hong snorted coldly, turning away from the line of sight originally fixed on Rongsheng, and slowly said: “Anyway, Rongsheng hasn’t been in contact with anything better, and I can’t dislike you.”
Ding Yan: “…” Is it so difficult to praise me?
Li Hong and Ding Yan ordered cups, finished washing, and ate breakfast with everyone.
Ding Yan’s mother said, “Actually, there are still vacancies in the city. You only need to register with the government to get them. After eating, Xiaolu, do you and Xiao Rong go and see?”
Ding Yan said displeased: “Mom, it’s not that we can’t live in our house, so why chase them away?”
Mother Ding glared at Ding Yan: “You are embarrassed. I don’t care if you sleep on the floor of the living room every day. Look at Xiao Rong’s appearance. Do you have the heart to let him sleep on the floor every day?”
Ding Yan: “I—”
Mother Ding interrupted him: “You can’t bear it, I can’t bear it!”
Ding Yan: “…”
Li Hong showed pity, and simply reached out and filled him with a bowl of porridge to show his comfort.
Rong Sheng smiled slightly: “I don’t mind.”
Li Hong thought for a while, but said, “Let’s go take a look.”
Rong Sheng was a little startled. He looked at Li Hong and said unsure: “I thought you would want to stay with Ding Yan…”
Li Hong said, “Aunt Ding is right. Since there is a room available, why squeeze?” Li Hong didn’t say that she and Rong Sheng are outsiders after all. After a day or two, let’s live for a long time, Ding’s father and mother are sure. Feel embarrassed.
Seeing that Ding Yan could not persuade him, he had to say: “Okay, I will accompany you afterwards.”
After eating, the three plan to go out. Li Hong caught a glimpse of the code that was faintly exposed behind Rong Sheng’s neck, and said to Rong Sheng that he would wait a while before taking a scarf and wrapping it around Rong Sheng. Although wearing a scarf seems a bit strange in this weather, it’s better than showing tattoos.
Ding Yan saw Li Hong’s movements, scratched the back of his head, and said to Li Hong: “By the way, about this tattoo on Rong Sheng, I actually heard something from my brother…”
Li Hong: “?”
Ding Yan wanted to explain, but felt that he might not explain it well, so he simply said to Li Hong: “You will know when you go out.”
Because City C is now almost equivalent to a doomsday fortress, the original economic order was re-established after the apocalypse completely collapsed. The country has restored the planned economy, and all those with special skills have been registered to use materials beyond the normal distribution quota as a reward for their contribution to City C.
Ding Yan’s father was a senior technician, and even participated in the installation of the outpost system in City C, so he was able to get some extra things-such as the bowl of “seafood soup” he used to entertain them yesterday.
Li Hong heard Ding Yan talk about the situation of City C he inquired from his parents.
After all, the National Center has moved here temporarily, and the restoration of order in City C is much faster than City Y, and more talents of all kinds are needed. Programmers like them seem to be useless in Y city, but they are also in short supply of technical personnel in C city.
After all, whether it is a police sentinel system, a military system, or even various research systems in the research institute—all need professional programmers to debug.
Ding Yan said: “So I guess we can find a job this time.”
For Li Hong, finding Rongsheng is the most important thing. She doesn’t care much about what she is working or not.
She was walking on the streets of City C, looking at the people coming and going, it was really hard to imagine for a while, the end had already happened. Human beings are really adaptable creatures. Even in the face of a near-extinct tragedy, they still collect the necessary elements for survival in the fastest time and work hard to survive.
Suddenly, Li Hong paused. She stared at the neck of a young man in front of her for a long time, and it took a long time before she let out a “huh?”
Li Hong: “Old Ding, this person—”
Before Li Hong had finished speaking, she saw more similar people.
The young man holding food stamps in exchange for fruit had a row of coded tattoos on his neck, and a row of coded tattoos on the arms of the bare-arm girl who walked by. All of these tattoos are almost the same as those on the back of Rongsheng’s neck, and there are even one or two passing by, even the number is the same as Rongsheng!
Li Hong was silent for a while, and said to Ding Yan: “Is this what you want to tell me?”
Ding Yan glanced at these people and said with a smile: “Yes, my brother told me. In order to soothe people’s hearts, the country has released the basic information of the guy we met yesterday. I heard that they have another one in the world. The uniform name is called the’Dawn Warrior’, and its iconic feature is the laboratory poke on the body.”
“No, many young people think that this logo represents power and uniqueness, so they imitated the tattoo, and the tattoo is everywhere.” Ding Yan said, putting his hands behind his head, and the old **** said. “So, our biggest worry can also be dispelled.”
Ding Yanchong squeezed Li Hong’s eyes: “I know you definitely don’t want the country to discover him.”
Li Hong silently pours Ding Yan with his elbow, and then stands on tiptoe to untie his scarf.
The scarf was lifted, and Rong Sheng’s beautiful neck was revealed. Li Hong stared at it for a while, and said with satisfaction: “It’s still pleasing to the eye.”
Rong Sheng did not resist, he could almost say that he indulged Li Hong to do whatever he wanted, and even watched her actions with a slight smile. Ding Yan felt blind, and silently pulled the scarf from Li Hong’s hand and blindfolded his eyes.
Li Hong was taken aback for a moment and asked, “What are you doing?”
Ding Yan said: “Protect your eyes and be afraid of being blind.”
Li Hong: “…”
Li Hong blankly took off the scarf from Ding Yan’s face and said, “Do you need me to help you?”
Ding Yan saw that Li Hong’s cheeks were red, and he knew that he had been ridiculing a little, so he hehe, just stuffed the scarf into the bag he was carrying, and stopped teasing the two of them.
After Li Hong stared at Ding Yan, he turned around and saw Rong Sheng still standing there, gazing at her tenderly.
Li Hong paused for a while and walked back to him pretending to be calm. When passing by Rong Sheng’s side, he took his hand and held the opponent’s finger tightly in the palm of his hand. Following him and Ding Yan, the three of them clamored and walked to the temporary government department.
Rong Sheng lowered his eyes slightly and watched Li Hong holding his hand, his smile on his face became gentler.
He felt that it was not Li Hong who seized himself, but his whole world.
“-07 What are you looking at?”
The officer leading the 07 mission noticed the absent-mindedness of the cyborg behind the team. He frowned and said, “We must leave the city before noon, or we won’t have time to come back before the sun goes down.”
07 squatted on the low fence built on the side of the road, biting his thumb and staring at the main road not far ahead.
The young girl held the young man’s hand like a hot red soldering iron, making his amber pupils a little red, but stubbornly refused to look away. In the end, his gaze stopped on Rongsheng’s smiling face, and he clicked his teeth up and down, and directly bit his finger.
When the officer noticed this scene, his eyebrows couldn’t help but frowned. He warned: “07, you are already a soldier, don’t forget the mission of a soldier.”
07 licked the thumb that he had bitten, and the open wound quickly stopped bleeding and healed. He smiled at the officer and jumped off the low wall.
“I know I know. You have to obey.” He tilted his head and looked at the staid and proud soldier. He suddenly laughed and cried, “Wang.”
The officer didn’t understand 07’s tricks at all, and he didn’t bother to pay attention to it.
Seeing 07 finally jumped onto the military truck properly, and he began to assign tasks to the super fighter: “The goal is the county and urban area 20 kilometers outside City C. There is a grain storage company warehouse. We need to transport it back. The food needed in the city.”
07 Half-closed eyes, listening with one pair and not the other.
The soldier has become accustomed to his appearance, and said: “Your task is to clean the living things in the warehouse. The time is three hours. The army has already done infrared detection of that area. With your ability, you only need it. One and a half hours.”
The soldier threw a communicator to 07 and asked, “Is there a problem?”
Based on past experience, 07 will only say one or two things that sound unpleasant, and then do it with a smile. But this time he asked: “If I get it done in half an hour, can I ask for a reward?”
The soldiers were a little surprised, but the outside after sunset was too dangerous for humans. Naturally, the sooner they completed their tasks, the better. So he nodded: “Yes, what do you want?”
07 smiled, he opened his eyes and looked very innocent: “Where do the newcomers live now? Can I live there too?”
The soldier didn’t even think about it: “No.” He warned: “07 remembers your identity.”
07 With some regrets, he said: “Forget it, I just see that the house they live in has a balcony and floor-to-ceiling windows, which is a bit envious.”
The soldier said: “The neighborhood they live in doesn’t have these. If you want these, I can ask them to change you a room with these.”
07 then smiled and nodded: “That’s good. But aren’t these rooms reserved for survivors?”
The soldier said: “The survivors have not lived in Area 03, so the problem is not big.”
07 Hearing the words, his eyes condensed for a moment, then he nodded, and played with the communicator in his hand, not knowing what he was thinking.
At the same time, Li Hong and Ding Yan both registered. After investigating online, the staff informed Li Hong to go to the government center to maintain the city’s intranet starting tomorrow. Ding Yan was sent to overhaul the military’s surveillance software.
When it came to Rongsheng, Li Hong and Ding Yan had originally planned to hope that he could take a good rest at home.
But Rong Sheng felt that now that he had a family, he should also take the corresponding responsibilities, so he also filled in the programmer. Rongsheng was assigned to work with Ding Yan. Ding Yan was a little worried and asked: “Rongsheng, do you know programming?”
Rong Sheng smiled slightly: “It’s very simple, just watch it twice.”
Ding Yan, who has been reading for seven years: “???”
Li Hong: “…” Oh, it’s a great fragment of the Demon God, and a great IQ.
After receiving the keys, Ding Yan also helped them move the supplies that the government had distributed to the newcomers. Although not many, there are some other things like bedding, pots and bowls, so that Li Hong and the others can live in the new house so that they will not be left behind.
The houses where the survivors lived are those hard-covered houses left by the developers.
What the staff mean is that if the hardcover rooms are full, those who come again will have to live in the rough rooms.
But Li Hong thought about the tragic situation they had seen along the way, and felt that City C would not be able to use those rough houses in a short period of time.
After finishing the things, the three of them simply cooked a bowl of noodles. After eating, Ding Yan went home and Li Hong taught Rongsheng to wash the dishes.
Seeing how Rong Sheng was washing, Li Hong threw the rest of the pot to him, and planned to go to the balcony to study if the washing machine could be used. If it can’t be used, she will have to wash her hands.
As a result, she had just arrived on the balcony (unsealed), and even before she could check the socket of the washing machine, she first saw the **** man squatting on the washing machine.
It is not very appropriate to say that it is bloody, 07 is just a large blood stain on the clothes. I don’t know if these blood stains are from him or something, even his hair has several pieces of condensed on his eyes—if Li Hong hadn’t turned on the light reflectively, the energy-saving lamp would clearly reflect 07’s. Shadow-She can’t help but think that she is wearing a ghost film.
07 is still squatting on the washing machine, holding a half-eaten apple in his hand.
He saw Li Hong who was expressionless, grinned and showed a row of white teeth and smiled, waved at Li Hong, and then gnawed the apple three or two times, and there was no apple core left. Li Hong looked at his row of white teeth, and suddenly fell silent for some reason.
After 07, I ate the apples and greeted her first.
He smiled and waved to Li Hong: “Hello, keeper of the twelve?”
Li Hong subconsciously retorted: “He is Rongsheng.” After speaking, she pursed the corner of her mouth and said, “And I am his friend, my name is Lu Xiaojia.”
07 I didn’t know if I understood, he tilted his head and stared at Li Hong and blinked slowly.
Li Hong saw those half-dry blood stains sticking to his eyelids along his hair, and finally couldn’t help it. She rolled up her sleeves and rushed 07: “You come down!”
07 narrowed his eyes: “You order me?”
No matter what, Li Hong pulled his arm and dragged it down, grabbed his head and pushed it into the sink next to the washing machine!
A glimmer of light flashed in 07’s eyes, and he stretched out his hand—
Rong Sheng heard the voice, the movement in his hand paused, and his gaze couldn’t help looking towards the balcony. The balcony was brightly lit, and he paused for a moment, wondering if he should show up. Suddenly there was a clatter from the balcony, Rong Sheng no longer cared whether Li Hong would find himself annoying, and lost the rag in his hand and rushed to the balcony within a few seconds!
“Little Jia—”
Rong Sheng panicked, he had stretched out his hand, but he was frozen halfway.
Li Hong pressed 07’s head, turned on the faucet, and pressed his head under the water column to rinse. Holding the newly received soap with her other hand, she wiped 07’s head regardless, trying to wash him off the slimy blood clots.
07 Struggling, but was immediately slapped by Li Hong unceremoniously: “Be honest, otherwise the bubble will get into your eyes!”
07 Hearing this, he actually lowered his head well.
Rong Sheng: “…”
Rong Sheng watched Li Hong help 07 clean his head as quickly as possible, and couldn’t help saying: “Xiao Jia…”
Li Hong gave an “um” and took a moment to glance at Rongsheng.
Rong Sheng lowered his eyes and said, “He can come by himself.”
Li Hong turned off the water and opened the other party’s move to wipe his hair with the hem of his blood-stained T-shirt, and said to Rong: “I know, it’s just that he is sitting on my washing machine. I’m worried about going to the police all night. I would think that our family killed someone and we are going to file a case.”
Rong Sheng paused, and after a while he stared at 07 coldly, 07 nonchalantly, and even grinned at his teeth.
Rong Sheng said to Li Hong: “It doesn’t matter, I can clean it up. Next time you encounter something like this, you directly call me and I will beat him out.”
Li Hong thought for a while: “Okay.”
Rong Sheng smiled softly.
07: “…”
07 “Tsk”, dissatisfied: “They are all experimental subjects, this is too different.”
Li Hong glanced at him, and the young man with his head cleaned was rebellious and looked daunting. Li Hong stared at the clearly marked code on his collarbone, paused for a while, and said to him: “Clean the blood before speaking. I will not talk to people covered in blood.”
07 murmured, “Women do a lot of things”, and when they say that they have to take off their clothes on the spot and take a shower in the sink on the balcony.
Li Hong: “The bathroom is inside, please go to the bathroom, thank you! The government pays for water and electricity, it’s not bad for you to take a bath!”
07 had to stop taking off his pants, talking about trouble, walked into the house with his blood-stained T-shirt, halfway around, he turned around and asked Li Hong: “Which one?”
Li Hong: “…the second one on the left.”
07 “Oh”, I went in and took a bath.
Rong Sheng watched him enter like this, and was a little dissatisfied: “I want to kick him out.”
Li Hong looked at a string of water stains on the floor and nodded in agreement: “I think too.”
But in the end none of them was able to get 07 out.
After all, 07 and Rong Sheng have the same origin. If they are enemies, Rong Sheng will tear him apart without hesitation. But now he took the initiative to show his favor, but Rong Sheng was a little at a loss. Among the twelve experimental subjects in the early stage, 07 has the most special relationship with him. Because there is one gene in them that is exactly the same, whether it is Rong Sheng’s self-proclaimed “brother” or the “brother and younger brother” in 07 actually has a certain basis.
Adding to the information from 07’s expression and Rongsheng’s information, compared with Rongsheng, the life of the experiment subject in 07 is much worse.
07 After taking a shower, put on Rongsheng clothes. Rong Sheng’s clothes are a little bigger for him, but they are also fine. He sat cross-legged on the sofa. There were no TV channels on the TV, but DVDs were still available.
Li Hong was surprised to find that he even brought the CD-ROM and stuffed it into the machine skillfully. He was silent for a while, and asked, “Did you plan it long ago?”
07 glanced at her, then stared back at the screen, and slowly said: “Love can’t see it.”
Li Hong glanced at the screen, and sat down and looked at it without holding back.
Heavenly Trial: “Honghong, pay attention! He wanted to cheat you before!”
Li Hong hides his face: “I know, but look at the CD he brought! It’s Alliance 3 for Xers! I haven’t seen this one! I want to see it!”
Tian Shen: “What? Reunion 3?… Then I want to see it too.”
So the first night in Rong Sheng’s new home was three people sitting on the sofa and watching a movie together.
After watching the movie, Li Hong was very sleepy. Although 07 took out the second one, she didn’t have the energy to watch it. After saying hello, she went to the room and went to sleep.
Rong Sheng felt that 07 could not turn the waves, Li Hong was not there, and he had no interest in movies, so he went back to rest.
Li Hong was awake in the middle of the night and when he got up to pour water in the living room, he saw 07 curled up on the sofa, sleeping like an animal with his eyes closed. She hesitated for a moment, then went back to the house and took a thin blanket of her own. She quietly covered 07 in the living room and turned off the TV and lights for 07 by the way.
After doing all this, Li Hong yawned greatly, rubbed his eyes and went back to sleep.
After she went back, 07 in the living room opened her eyes. His eyes are like wolves, shining in the dark-this allows him to spot enemies well even in the dark. He carefully reached out his hand, grabbed a corner of the thin blanket, and wrapped himself tightly.
07 curled up there and slowly closed his eyes.
He fell asleep.
Early the next morning. When Li Hong got up, Rong Sheng had already cooked Li Hong’s porridge according to his observation of Ding Mu’s order of cooking the porridge.
After finishing washing, Li Hong went to the living room and glanced at it. There was no one on the sofa.
Only the two CDs on the table and the weird thin blanket on the sofa prove that someone had been here last night.
Li Hong did not ask where 07 was going, and Rong Sheng did not take the initiative to answer.
But Li Hong saw the empty bowls in the sink that had not been cleaned yet.
Rong Sheng didn’t speak, his expression looked extremely stiff. But Li Hong couldn’t help laughing when he saw such a rong.
“Rong Sheng…” Li Hong deliberately prolonged the ending. Rong Sheng seemed to be afraid of her asking about the empty bowl, and the annoyance on his face was clearly visible.
Li Hong smiled and said, “I’ve finished eating, shall I go to work together?”
