"Nothing?" Cheng Yue was surprised, "How could it be?"

Yan Jian sat beside him: "We also thought it was strange, but we searched there several times, and found nothing except the wreckage of the plane and the corpses all over the place."

Qin Yan added: "There are zombies and humans inside the corpse, so the preliminary judgment is that there should have been a battle there."

"And there are two waves." Ming Xiao raised two fingers, "There is a wave close to the fuselage, and there is another wave not far from the plane. I'm not sure if it's the same battle."

Ning Chengyou shook his head: "The time should be about the same, but the people may be different, because the methods are very different. It's just that we don't have evidence now, so we can't talk about it."

Zhang Bei poured a glass of water for each of them and asked, "Then what should we do next?"

Ning Chengyou took out the communicator from his pocket: "I'll report the situation to my superior first, and I'll ask by the way."

"Ah."

After the virus swept the world, it caused great damage to human production and life, and even the communication base station was destroyed. The mobile phone has lost its original function as early as the third year of the outbreak of the zombie wave, and can only be used in the northern headquarters. .Those who come out to perform missions like them can generally only be equipped with dedicated communicators, and only the captain can use them.

After briefly reporting the day's situation to his superiors, Ning Chengyou asked about his next plan and quickly got instructions.

"How is it?" Seeing him hang up the communication, others came up to ask.

Ning Chengyou announced the instructions given by his superiors again: "The commander asked us to return the same way, but we must pay attention along the way. If we find someone similar to the target person, we will take him back with him."

Cheng Yue spoke quickly: "What if there is no one?"

"Forget it, just go back," Ning Chengyou said, "They didn't expect this to happen. There are uncontrollable factors in this mission, and failure is inevitable. It's not our fault."

"Everyone has done their best."

"Oh," Cheng Yue fell on Yan Jian's lap as if he had no bones, "It's so difficult."

Yan Jian helped him change into a more comfortable position, pinched his shoulder: "This strength?"

Cheng Yue closed his eyes with enjoyment: "Yes."

The others didn't bother to look at them anymore, Zhang Bei asked, "Then when shall we leave?"

Ning Chengyou glanced out subconsciously, then looked at his watch, the pointer pointed to five o'clock in the afternoon.He pondered for a moment, and said, "It's a bit late now. If we leave immediately, we don't know where we will go. Is there any danger? Why don't we stay here tonight and start tomorrow morning?"

Everyone has no objection: "OK."

"I want to know." Ming Xiao raised his hand and pointed to the child next to Ning Chengyou, "If we go back the same way, what will happen to him? Do we want to take him with us?"

As soon as she said this, all eyes were on the child.

Cheng Yue turned over: "Can't you not take it? How can you leave a child alone?"

The child was still asleep, with half of his face sunk in the blanket, and the soft hair fell down in a semicircle on his face, covering his closed eyes, and he seemed to be sleeping relatively peacefully.Ning Chengyou checked his current condition, he still had a fever, but there was no sign of zombification.

Heaving a sigh of relief in his heart, Ning Chengyou gathered himself together, and finally said: "He will go back with us."

"it is good."

No one else objected.

"One question remains."

Ning Chengyou beckoned and asked Fufu to bring the cat over. Fufu excitedly rolled up the cat with his tail and ran over, only putting it down in front of Ning Chengyou.The cat obviously didn't want to be moved around in such a hasty manner. It barked its teeth and claws all the way, and immediately tried to jump up after being put down, but was stopped by Cheng Yue with his feet.

Cheng Yue winked at Yan Jian, Yan Jian understood, picked up the cat by the back of its neck, and brought it to Ning Chengyou.

Ning Chengyou took it, and it struggled a few times, but failed to break free, as if it had lost its fighting spirit, its limbs drooped, and it looked at Ning Chengyou sadly.

"Little guy, are you not convinced?" Ning Chengyou asked, "You still want to compare with me?"

The cat couldn't speak, so naturally he couldn't answer him. He continued on his own: "You protected the master very well just now. When we leave tomorrow, do you want to go with me? Otherwise, your master won't be able to find you when he wakes up." When it comes to you, I should be sad."

"There's nothing a kid likes more than losing a best friend."

He pinched one of the cat's paws and nodded: "Okay, since you agree, then it's settled."

cat:"……"

"Fufu." Ning Chengyou put the cat on the ground, and Fufu came in response to the sound. He patted the heads of the two little guys and said reassuringly, "Go and play."

Fufu let out a joyful cry, and happily dragged the cat away.

After watching the whole process of him communicating with the cat, Cheng Yue's expression was a little distorted: "Is this how you ask for other people's opinions?"

Ning Chengyou spoke boldly: "Anyway, it agrees."

Cheng Yue gave a thumbs up: "Then you are awesome."

While they were chatting, Zhang Bei had already finished dinner.

It's dinner, but it's not really the case. There are only some compressed food and a pot of porridge, which can barely eat enough to maintain physical strength, but it is far worse than the original meal at the central city base.Fortunately, they have been eating like this all the way, but they are gradually getting used to it. Thinking that they can go back soon, these things are not so hard to swallow.

While eating porridge, Zhang Bei said regretfully, "Actually, there are quite a few instant noodles in that small supermarket..."

"It's all expired." Ning Chengyou calmly suppressed his thoughts, "You can't eat it."

He held the bowl: "Besides, can you sentinels eat instant noodles? Such irritating food, one bite of the tongue should be gone."

Because the body is countless times stronger than ordinary people and guides, sentinels have developed five senses and strong physical fitness. They are almost perfect fighters, but they are also powerful and have disadvantages. Because their senses are too developed, they are easily influenced. , The degree of fragility can also be seen, a slightly louder sound is serious noise to them, enough to disturb their brains.Their taste system is the same, they can't stand the overly stimulating food taste, and they can only eat the most bland food, not to mention instant noodles, even porridge can only be eaten cold.

Ning Chengyou took the can away from the sentries and shared it with Qin Yan and Cheng Yue. He ignored the eager eyes of the sentries and smiled and pushed their hands away: "No."

In the middle of the meal, the child woke up once. Ning Chengyou thought that he hadn't eaten, so he fed him some water first, and asked him, "Are you hungry?"

The child glanced at their dinner, his eyes flickered, Ning Chengyou saw it, filled half a bowl of porridge, followed the steps of feeding water, took a sip first, and said to him: "May I feed you? "

The child moved his arm, but failed to lift it up, so he could only nod his head reservedly.

The porridge that had just been cooked was still a bit hot, and the sentinels chose to take it out and let it cool down before drinking it. Ning Chengyou himself had no scruples, he was a guide, and he was not afraid of being hot, but considering that the child was still young, he blew it one mouthful at a time. Let it cool down before feeding.

The kid looked really hungry, keeping his eyes on his spoon, opening his mouth to drink each mouthful as it was delivered, and then eagerly waiting for another spoonful.

Fortunately, he was fed porridge, if he ate anything else, he would have to choke.

Ning Chengyou said softly while feeding, "Drink slowly, don't worry."

The child raised his eyelids and looked at him, not sure if he understood what he said, but he still went his own way, as if he was competing with others, he drank extremely fast, and if he fed slowly, he would be urged by his eyes, which made Ning Chengyou have to Boost.

Because the child can't eat too much now, Ning Chengyou stopped feeding him after half a bowl of porridge.Instead, she wiped his mouth and helped him lean against her side: "Sit down and rest for a while, and I'll check on you after I finish eating."

"good."

He patted the child's head, turned around and continued eating his dinner.

After eating, he checked the child's body again.The wound on the child's body has not deteriorated, and the bite marks on the chin are showing signs of healing. It looks a bit hideous, but new flesh has begun to grow on the edge, and I believe it won't take long for it to heal.

Ning Chengyou touched the child's forehead again, and when he touched it, the child visibly shrank his neck.He paused and explained: "I'm testing the temperature of your forehead."

At the moment when the conditions are poor, only the most primitive method can be used to try it out.

The child understood his explanation, but the body's subconscious reaction was uncontrollable. The next time Ning Chengyou posted it, he instinctively turned his head away, and after he realized it, he moved back silently and looked at Ning Chengyou. not talking.

His appearance does not seem like a natural reaction, but rather a conditioned reflex formed after the body has been traumatized, and he instinctively refuses to be touched by others.

Reminiscent of the situation when I met him, it is not difficult for him to be like this.

Ning Chengyou felt a dull pain in his heart, took a deep breath, slowed down his movements, and put on what he thought was the gentlest smile: "Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you."

The child's expression remained unchanged, and he was examined in silence.

The forehead temperature was still not low, Ning Chengyou frowned, ran to pour a glass of water, let it cool down, and let the child drink the medicine.

Maybe it's because he had enough sleep during the day, the child will be more energetic, and he doesn't feel sleepy after drinking the medicine, and he still sits there and looks at him in blank dismay.

Ning Chengyou glanced around. Everyone else was busy with their own business. When he turned back, the child was still staring at him, as if he wanted to study a new continent on his face.

"Is there something on my face?" Ning Chengyou couldn't stand such a direct gaze, subconsciously touched his face and asked.

The child blinked slowly and did not reply.

Ning Chengyou simply sat next to him, leaning against the wall with him.The interior space of this building is not small, and it looks cold at night. He pulled up the blanket on the child and asked, "Little friend, are you sleepy now?"

The kid shook his head.

"Then let's chat?" Ning Chengyou asked tentatively.

The child looked at him, seemed to think for a while, and then nodded.

Ning Chengyou introduced himself: "My name is Ning Chengyou, may I know your name?"

Not sure if the child would understand, he spelled his name again.The child watched his movements carefully, and finally opened his mouth and made a breathy sound: "eighteen..."

"Eighteen?" Ning Chengyou heard it clearly and felt a little strange, "Is it your name?"

The child shook his head: "No... name..."

Hearing the familiar language from his mouth, Ning Chengyou was a little surprised: "You can speak Chinese?"

The child's voice sounded a bit jerky, obviously very unskilled: "...a little bit."

"That's amazing, kid." Ning Chengyou praised without any effort.

The child pursed his lips.

The joy of learning that the child can speak Chinese did not completely occupy Ning Chengyou's brain. He still remembered what the child said before, and asked again: "Little friend, what do you mean by no name?"

The child looked at him and replied, "Code name... eighteen."

Ning Chengyou frowned: "Only a code name, but no name?"

The kid nodded.

Ning Chengyou's heart sank. This child's situation is probably much more complicated than he imagined.

"Then do you remember what happened before?" Ning Chengyou continued to ask, "Before you met us."

The child thought for a while: "Remember."

"Can you tell me about it?" Ning Chengyou asked.

There was a hint of vigilance in the child's eyes, and his mouth was tight.

It seems that he doesn't want to say it.

Ning Chengyou sighed, and he wanted to ask more questions, such as why a child of his appeared in this city, who brought him here, how long he had been here specifically, and what happened to those zombies, but Considering the child's current physical condition, I'm afraid that if the child recalls unbearable images, it will cause some bad effects, so I don't ask about it for now, and I will proceed step by step in the future to get to the bottom of it.

Ning Chengyou tidied up his expression, returned to his nonchalant look, pointed to the cat that was fighting with Fufu in the distance and asked, "Is that your pet?"

The child looked in the direction he was pointing, nodded, and called "Tiger". The cat that was fighting stopped immediately and looked at the owner, as if it wanted to rush over, but because it was suppressed by Fufu, Struggling very hard.

Ning Chengyou laughed unkindly, the child turned his head slowly, as if he couldn't bear to watch that scene again, out of sight and out of mind.

"It's called Tiger, isn't it?" Seeing the child turn back, Ning Chengyou said with a smile, "It's...prestige."

The child glanced over there again and flattened the corners of his mouth.

Ning Chengyou laughed enough, beckoned Fufu to release Tiger, the little fox moved down from the cat with great reluctance, Tiger immediately rushed over like an arrow off the string, and with one leap, he was about to jump into the child's arms , but was blocked by Ning Chengyou, and failed to fall into the destination, but was carried away by a pair of hands that appeared out of nowhere.

Tiger glared at the villain who prevented him from jumping into his master's arms, and made a "gurgling" sound in his throat. Seeing this, Ning Chengyou turned his face to the child, Tiger's arrogance suddenly weakened, and he moved his neck, as if I want to rub my master.

"It's recovered pretty well." Ning Chengyou raised one of Tiger's paws and moved it up and down, "It's basically fine now."

The child moved his finger, and Ning Chengyou let Tiger go, let him touch it twice, and then sent Tiger to Fufu's side, preventing him from getting close to the child: "Your master is not in good health now, Can't come near."

Tiger didn't listen to him, and kept looking at the child. After receiving the instructions from the child's eyes, he was dragged away by Fufu step by step.

"By the way," Ning Chengyou remembered after watching the two treasures leave, "I forgot to ask you—"

The child looked at him.

Ning Chengyou pointed to a few people other than himself: "—We are a team. We came here for some things, which have been resolved now, so we are leaving tomorrow. Do you want to go with us?"

"It's not safe for you to be here alone, and you have suffered such a serious injury and need someone to take care of you," he offered himself, "If you come with us, I can take care of you."

Facing the child's clear eyes, Ning Chengyou touched the tip of his nose, feeling a little guilty: "Actually, I planned to take you away when you were unconscious, but now that you are awake, I feel that I should ask you personally Views."

"How?" he asked, "Do you want to come with us?"

The child looked at him quietly, and nodded after listening to him, "Okay."
