Chapter 7： Meet

In the last life, Ye Xuan had a better life than many survivors when the apocalypse just came. Part of the reason was that the transformation of his abilities made him better adapt to the temperature changes when the apocalypse came, and another part of the reason was that his There is a lot of food and water in the house.

When he saw people on the Internet arguing that the end of the world was coming, he also followed suit and bought some instant noodles and mineral water to keep at home out of the mentality of safety, but that was about a week's amount. What really saved him from going out to collect supplies because of the threat of starvation was a mysterious package he received a week before the end of the world, a big gift that could be said to have saved his life.

Ye Xuan remembers that he received the courier when the online eschatology was the hottest. They do not allow couriers to enter the community. Usually, if you buy something, you have to go to the door to inspect the goods and sign the form, or let the courier directly ask the courier to enter. Put it in the guard room.

Ye Xuan was afraid of trouble, so he always asked the security guard to sign for it, and took it when he passed by.

That day, he received a call from the doorman, saying that he didn't take it seriously when he received a courier from him, but after he went there, he found out that it was something he had never bought at all.

Ye Xuan inquired about the courier company and the online store that sent the package, and finally came to the conclusion that the other party may have filled in the wrong information. Deal with it later.

Although Ye Xuan found it troublesome, it was not a problem to throw out the things people bought. He could only put the pile of things in a corner of the living room. As a result, after two days, the customer service said that the other party found that he had filled in the wrong information, but he was too lazy to do it again, so he simply gave him everything.

Ye Xuan received a lot of things from the other party so inexplicably, and then relied on these unexpected things to avoid the lack of food in the early days of the apocalypse.

After he came back from his rebirth, he thought about waiting for the wrong package to be sent, contacting the buyer who filled in the wrong address, and then reminding the other party that the apocalypse was coming.

As a result, he didn't wait for the courier, and Ling Jiaze asked him to store the supplies. These two things seem to be irrelevant, but Ye Xuan has to think more.

The fact that Ling Jiaze knew himself was an event that did not change because of rebirth, so is there such a possibility that after seeing the news of the end of the world in his last life, he sent this package to himself, and then in this life, because the two of them have already Knowing that, he doesn't need to use this euphemistic way to send things to himself, so what about 'storage'?

Ye Xuan knew that it was a bit far-fetched for him to think this way, but he still asked Ling Jiaze that question—did you see the news that the end of the world was coming, and then deliberately used this method to send me supplies?

After all, he really couldn't figure out why Ling Jiaze bought such a bunch of things. If you read the comments on the Internet and feel that you should buy some supplies, you should also put them in your own dormitory or at home. There is no reason to put them in someone else’s home.

Ye Xuan couldn't believe it anymore. There was no place for a few boxes of water and instant noodles in his house?

After Ye Xuan said this, Ling Jiaze was silent for a long time before he said: "I saw many people on the Internet saying that there will be a disaster next, although I don't know if it's true or not, but it's always good to be more prepared. ,At once…"

Ye Xuan took up what he didn't finish, "Then you're afraid that I won't believe what I say on the Internet, and you're afraid that I'll have an accident if the disaster really comes, so you want to put these life-saving things in my house in the name of storage?"

"Yeah," Ling Jiaze's voice was a little hoarse, and he asked in confusion, "Senior, don't you believe in these weird and chaotic things? I don't really believe it. I don't usually believe in these things."

"Ling Jiaze, do you..." Like me?

Halfway through the words, Ye Xuan still didn't ask the second half.

"Forget it, tell me your address, and the two of us will talk about it face to face."

"How about I drive to the senior's house? Everything is in the trunk of my car, so I don't have to pour it again."

"Okay, I'll send you my home address."

"Then senior, we'll see you later!"

After hanging up the phone, Ye Xuan sat on the sofa for a long time. Ling Jiaze's obviously happy and relaxed tone seemed to keep echoing in his ears, and a big stone in his heart made him feel uncomfortable.

If Ling Jiaze had an impression of himself before, or if he liked him, then why have they never met in the safe zone since the end of the world?

Didn't he survive and turn into a zombie? Did he die prematurely by accident? Or is all this really such a coincidence, the two of them are clearly in City C, but they have never met each other in the nearby safe area?

Ye Xuan didn't want to think about this question.

So he didn't want to ask Ling Jiaze what his feelings were towards him. The end of the world was coming, and it was unknown whether the two of them could survive the initial catastrophe. How could they think about love?

Ye Xuan looked at the somewhat empty villa and the supplies he had piled in the corner and made a unilateral decision - instead of embarrassing everyone, it is better to maintain the status quo first, if both of them are lucky not to become zombies , let's talk about feelings at that time.

—

Ye Xuan waited for about an hour at home and Ling Jiaze arrived. To Ye Xuan's surprise, Ling Jiaze, an introverted junior, was actually driving a large off-road vehicle, but he thought that the other party was also about 1.8 meters tall, and that the other party in the casino was unfamiliar at the time. The person is undoubtedly indifferent, and Ye Xuan feels as if only this kind of car is more suitable for him.

Ye Xuan instructed him to park the car in the garage. Seeing that Ling Jiaze was about to open the trunk to move things, the exit interrupted his movement: "Come in first, don't rush to move things inside."

Ling Jiaze paused for a moment, but still listened to Ye Xuan's words and followed him into the door.

After Ye Xuan entered the door, he turned on the air conditioner, pointed at the sofa and said, "Sit down, I'll get you a drink, carbonated drink or juice?"

Like a student in class, Ling Jiaze sat upright on the sofa and said, "The water is fine, don't bother the senior."

Ye Xuan took out a bottle of ice water and a bottle of juice from the refrigerator and put it on the table and said, "I'm sorry, I have been in the room upstairs before, and I didn't turn on the air conditioner in the living room. It may be a little hot, but it will cool down in a while. , you should have a cold drink first."

In fact, he was not upstairs all the time, but he never felt the heat. If he hadn't seen Ling Jiaze sweating a little, Ye Xuan would not have realized that the temperature at home was too high.

In addition to retaining his spiritual power after the apocalypse, Ye Xuan's current physical quality is also different from that of ordinary people before the apocalypse. Although it is not as good as the perfect physique of a high-level power user, it is also compared with the human beings before the apocalypse. a slight gap.

His speed and strength have been slightly improved, and his adaptability to the external environment has also been greatly improved. The most direct manifestation is that he has not felt the heat of the mid-August summer for more than half a month, and the weather of more than 30 degrees is as comfortable for him as the spring and autumn of 20 degrees.

However, 30 degrees is nothing to humans in the post-apocalyptic world. Compared with the winter and summer at that time, the heat and cold now can be called a comfortable temperature.

Ling Jiaze took the mineral water, pointed at the boxes of water and instant noodles that Ye Xuan had piled up in the corner of the living room, and said a little embarrassedly, "It turns out that the senior has already made preparations, so I was just worrying about it."

"I bought a little bit after seeing the news before. You can think of my side and I'm still very moved."

In Ye Xuan's space, there are big things, and there are some durable materials scattered around the house, which are convenient and concealed. After turning the page, he said the main purpose of meeting with Ling Jiaze today, "Do you think the end of the world will really come?"

"I don't know. As far as I know, there has never been an example of this kind of accident happening in many places in the world at the same time, so the saying of the end of the world cannot be completely groundless. But scientists have not yet discovered what caused these disasters. So I'm still quite confused now, but I think the official will definitely give an explanation after a while."

"You quite believe the news released by the official." In the history of various countries, there are actually some examples of officials deliberately concealing information to control the situation. Now there are many people on the Internet saying that these countries already know what happened to these disasters, but for some reason deliberately not disclosed.

Ye Xuan, as someone who came here, knew that those scientists really didn't find anything, but Ye Xuan was quite surprised that Ling Jiaze could say that he believed the official news.

"My elders are in politics, and the information they tell me is generally more accurate." Ling Jiaze explained, "But from my life experience from childhood to adulthood, the official release must be that they have weighed it. , revealable, and the most favorable news for the situation, so I generally still believe in news reports, and I am willing to listen to the state's arrangements."

"Assuming that these natural disasters are early warnings of the earth, or harbingers of the end of the world, which kind of doomsday do you think it will be?"

Ling Jiaze frowned and thought about it for a long time, "I'm more inclined to change in plate motion or gravity, right? I don't know much about this, but it seems to be a more reliable guess."

Ye Xuan picked up the cup and took a sip of the juice. The cold liquid irritated his throat, causing him to cough dryly. He looked at Ling Jiaze and said seriously, "I'm the opposite of you. I believe in the most impossible guess—humans become zombies, and the world is reshuffled."

"Zombie? Is it in the movie, no consciousness, no brain, cannibal monster?"

"Well, it's this monster."
