The Fantastical Beasts at World's End

No one would venture out of the group and go it alone when completely uncertain where to find refuge.However, if you just stay in front of the hospital building and wait until dawn, it may not take much effort, but no one can be sure whether there will be rescue after dawn, and if there is rescue, how long it will take from the departure point to where they are.

This group of people is not a small number. There are hundreds of people in the hospital and those who joined in the community later.Everyone talked about it and decided to go south along the road according to the opinions of the majority. Firstly, the temperature is relatively low at night, and activities can make the body warmer. Second, let’s see if we can find any more along the road. For the living, after all, the bigger the team, the bigger the goal, and the more people, the easier it is to do things.The third is that important institutions such as the municipal government are in that direction.If the government is capable of arranging rescue, if we go in that direction, we may be able to get rescue earlier and get settled as soon as possible.

There are not many people with mobile phones, but some of those who came out of the community brought emergency flashlights. They went from front to back, with a distance between each two, and illuminated the feet of those who walked behind. way.Disabled patients, women, old people and children walk in the middle, and taller men surround the outside, which is relatively safer and can provide some wind protection for those in the middle.

In fact, Nie Renyan has a way to take people directly to the place where the government is located, but once he uses it, his identity will inevitably be discussed. No matter what excuses he makes up, those unusual abilities are still a bit eye-catching among a group of ordinary people. In fact, Luo Xiaochen It's easy for them to talk, but there are still so many strangers. Although in the current situation, everyone seems to get along harmoniously and hug each other, but they are still strangers after all, and a fool would do this in front of so many strangers. Things that reveal identity and ability.

However, if you just walk forward with your feet like this, it will take at least two hours under normal circumstances, not to mention it is night, the road surface is uneven, and the road signs are also ruined. Everyone can only rely on their familiarity with the roads of this city. I was groping for directions, wondering if I could get to the government area before dawn.

Ye Zhao still habitually walked at the back of the crowd.On his right is Nie Renyan, who seems to be leisurely with his pocket in his pocket, but is actually a little impatient with this unusual way of walking; on his left, who is unwilling to walk among the crowd, holding a cat and accompanying them several big men wandering in the back of the team. That little girl, and Luo Xiaochen who never stopped talking all the way, while Fang Siyuan and Mu Mu walked beside Xia Zhiming as usual.

Because there are a lot of old people and children, the whole team didn't move very fast in order to match their pace. In addition, Xia Zhiming's injured knee swelling has almost disappeared, and walking still hurts, but it is a problem for him It's not big, so it's not stressful to walk behind the team for a long time.

"I can't tell, girl, you're already in college?" Xia Zhiming was a little surprised when he heard the girl briefly introduce his situation.

The girl tilted her head and looked at him: "Then what do I look like?" Because of her small stature and a little skinny, coupled with her pouty face, she really didn't look very old.

"Middle school student, looks like he graduated from junior high school and just entered high school." As soon as Xia Zhiming finished speaking, the girl's eyes widened, amusing him and Luo Xiaochen who was beside him.

"I'm almost graduating from college!" the girl emphasized, thinking, no wonder she told them that her name is "Jiang Qi", and these people kept calling "girl long and girl short", so I thought I was different from them For the first generation, I just teased him like a child.

"Hiss—speaking of which, didn't you say that the glass on the balcony of your sister's house hasn't been melted yet? You should be able to stay at home, why come out in the middle of the night and walk such a long distance together, you can wait until tomorrow morning to talk about it "Luo Xiaochen stretched out his fingers and flirted with the kitten in her arms twice, but the cat patted his finger with its meaty paw, then turned away and turned its butt towards him.

Jiang Qi explained: "It was planned in this way, but it may be because the upper floor was damaged a bit, and the surrounding ground collapsed and the ground shook, the walls began to crack. When we packed up some things and went out, The crack is still getting bigger, if you stay in the house, maybe there will be a stronger wind, the house will fall down, and Xiao Hei has been pulling my trouser legs to let me out." She said and stroked the kitten in her arms. "To be honest, it's hard to rest well if you stay in the house. So many people have died, only our side has voices around, and there are not many people around. It's scary to think about it. It's better to go out and follow the crowd." , besides, they are all in the city, if you don’t meet rescuers when you go there, at worst, come back.”

Luo Xiaochen nodded, "Yes".

Ye Zhao has been listening to them chatting, but he didn't say much, but it didn't take long for him to feel a bunch of eyes fixed on him, and turned his head to the left curiously, only to find that the little black dog that XXX was holding The cat's two paws were on her arm, and it was staring at her with its face upturned. It looked cute and naive.He couldn't help curling the corners of his mouth, and smiled at the kitten.

Probably that kind of smile made the kitten feel closer. The little guy struggled twice in Jiang Qi's arms, then jumped onto Ye Zhao, grabbed the collar of his coat with two paws, and looked at him innocently.Ye Zhao simply supported its buttocks to make it more stable, and then reached out and rubbed its head.

Jiang Qi looked at Ye Zhao in surprise and said, "It actually let you hold it on its own initiative!"

"Why?" Ye Zhao felt that the kitten's round head felt good, so he rubbed it lightly twice, and asked, "Is it afraid of people?"

"No, no." Jiang Qi shook her head and said, "This little guy is arrogant. Let alone hugging a normal person, he doesn't even give him a straight eye. If it wasn't for me to hug him, he would at least keep a distance of five meters or more from others." distance."

"Is it?"

Jiang Qi gave a "hmm" and said, "I actually picked it up, and it was only so big when I saw it." She gestured with both hands less than the length of a palm, "It's thin and small, and it's dirty all over. Xixi, it looks very pitiful. The two girls walking in front of me probably want to feed it something to eat. I just took two steps towards that side, and the little guy disappeared after running around. There was a street away from that side, only to find that it had been following me, about two steps away, and when someone approached it, it would disappear without a trace, and when there were no one around me, it would follow me again. I think it was alone anyway. I didn’t worry about trouble, so I took it home.”

She glanced at the kitten and continued: "I have raised it for more than a year, and it has only grown a little bit, but its temper has not changed at all. The only one who let it take the initiative to approach it was a boy. I took it I met him when I was out shopping. He was not tall but very handsome. The little guy jumped out of my arms when he saw him, and followed the man for a long distance. He yelled several times before agreeing. return."

"Hey!" Luo Xiaochen said, "Is this kitten the mother's?"

"Male." Jiang Qi glanced at the kitten in Ye Zhao's arms, who had no intention of coming back, and helplessly reached out to poke its forehead, "If you say it likes handsome guys, why did it follow me back then? "

Nie Renyan stood aside, looking at the very comfortable black kitten nestled in Ye Zhao's arms, and said to himself: These days, even kittens are treated better than myself. I am happy to hold it, and let me wrap my arms around my waist. It's so unreasonable to be so awkward!

He raised his chin slightly, walked carelessly, and occasionally kicked the gravel aside under his feet, looking foolish, walking, and then glanced at the kitten in Ye Zhao's arms, only to realize that the little guy changed It turned in a direction, its face was facing itself, its round eyes were covered with a layer of water vapor, it stretched its neck, pulled out a paw and raised it to reach Nie Renyan, but it retracted just half way, and then He tilted his head and looked at Nie Renyan with a cautious look in his fawning eyes.

Nie Renyan looked at its wobbly look, and gave a "tsk", feeling a little funny, so he raised his hand and stroked its head for a while, rubbing its fur into a mess. The little guy seemed to enjoy it a lot. Yes, she squinted her eyes and yelled at him twice.

Jiang Qi was even more surprised when she saw it, and said: "Xiao Hei is too abnormal today..."

Ye Zhao, on the other hand, looked at the little guy in his arms, exchanged glances with Nie Renyan, and had some thoughts in his mind——

It is said that cats are very spiritual creatures, especially black cats. If I say that I and Nie Renyan have the biggest similarity, it should be that they are different from ordinary people. Could it be that the special aura on their bodies can attract this weird cat? ?If this is the case...then this little girl and the boy she met on the street may be unusual.

But this is just a conjecture, and even if there is something unusual about this little girl and that boy, it is their own business and has little to do with them.So Ye Zhao and Nie Renyan just thought about it, and didn't pay too much attention to it. They just looked at Jiang Qi with more meaning. The little girl didn't seem to realize that she was unusual. Tears, eyes that can't stop once they fall.

Ye Zhao continued walking with the cat in his arms, but after a while, he felt Nie Renyan's palm covering his waist.

[Walk well. ] Ye Zhao glanced at him.

In the end, he heard him say: [If... this cat can really distinguish the breath of people who are different from ordinary people, then maybe it can be used to find out who Taotie was when they were humans. 】
