Time passes between the fingers.

In the fifth month of the insect plague, the research laboratory developed an insect repellent patch that can drive away mutated insects by simply applying the round-shaped insect repellent patch on the neck, waist and ankles.

There are three deworming patches in a box, and the effectiveness of each patch lasts for seven days. Officials still distribute one box free of charge to each household and deliver it to residents door to door.

There are two warriors in Building A. As soon as they received the insect repellent patches, they immediately took off their protective clothing and went out wearing vests and shorts.

They wandered outside for a week without attracting a single mutated bug, nor did they experience any side effects, causing the people watching to take off their sweltering protective clothing one after another.

Chi Yue looked down through the window.

I noticed that there were about a dozen people wearing cool clothes exercising and walking on the playground. I really admired them and said, "They are so brave."

"You want to try too?"

"I want to, but I don't dare." Just wearing the insect repellent stickers makes her feel insecure and she will always be on tenterhooks.

"Wait a minute." Wen Qizhou knew in her heart how much she was looking forward to the end of the pest disaster: "The research laboratory will soon launch a powerful insecticide. When the insecticide is on the market, we will be safer."

The development of powerful insecticides took a long time.

It is said that there are two pesticides that are in the late stages of experimentation. Once the experiment is successful, the entire Jing City will be completely wiped out.

By then, the threat posed by mutant bugs to people will be greatly reduced, and they will be able to go out without wearing protective clothing.

"Well, I'll wait." She bent her legs and rested her chin on her knees, basking in the sun like a lazy cat.

Wen Qizhou looked at her softly, then turned a page of the book in his hand, immersed in the story.

Just as he was watching intently, there was a knock on the door.

"Brother Zhou! Sister Yue! Are you at home?" A male voice that was particularly familiar to them immediately reached their ears.

"It sounds like Chengwei's voice?"

Not sure, Wen Qizhou put down his books and walked to the security door, looking through the peephole at the three people standing outside the door.

The three of them were wrapped tightly.

But through the eyes under the goggles, he could distinguish the identities of the three people, and he said: "Chengwei? Wait a moment."

He put the disinfectant and insecticide in the disinfection shed that they had set up behind the door not long ago. He waited for Chi Yue to take off her suspender skirt and change into a set of ice silk pajamas before opening the door for the three of them.

"You guys disinfect first." Before Yao Chengwei could scream, he raised his chin slightly: "Just put the protective clothing inside."

Zhao Peng nodded: "Okay."

After the three people sprayed the insecticide, they took off their protective clothing and sprayed disinfectant all over their bodies, then walked out of the disinfection booth feeling refreshed.

"Brother Zhou, I finally see you!" Yao Chengwei rushed towards Wen Qizhou, strangled him by the neck and hugged him tightly.

Even Zhao Peng, who had a reserved temperament, was excited to meet again after a long separation. He quickly walked forward and put his arms around their shoulders.

Sun Rui on the side pounced on Chi Yue.

She was more emotional than the two of them. The moment she hugged Chi Yue, her eyes turned red, but she couldn't pronounce even a single syllable.

"When did you arrive?" Chi Yue patted her back gently and pulled her to sit on the double sofa.

"The end of February." Sun Rui sniffed.

She took the tissue from Chi Yue and wiped the tears that overflowed from the corners of her eyes: "The day after we arrived, we sent a mission to find you in the mission hall, but no one took it."

The base pays attention to the privacy of residents.

No information about residents will be provided to people other than immediate family members and spouses, and they can only be found by sending a task.

After calming down, Yao Chengwei sat on the carpet next to the coffee table: "If we hadn't just met a staff member named Tan, I'm afraid we would have had to look for you for a long time."

Since the mission was released, they have visited the service area every seven or eight days. When they went to visit today, a staff member named Tan took the initiative to talk to them.

He asked them many questions openly and secretly, mostly to make sure that they did not have any hostility towards Wen Qizhou and Chi Yue, and then revealed the couple's address at the last moment.

"Tan Cong?" Wen Qizhou took out a paper cup and poured water for them: "He should have seen the mission you issued."

Zhao Peng nodded: "I guess so." He then sat on the carpet and asked with concern: "How have you been these past few years?"

"not bad."

They chatted about their lives in recent years.

Yao Chengwei's teeth clenched when he heard that not only did they find Ge Qinyao, but they also made like-minded friends on the road.

He pretended to be sad: "I only see the new people smiling, but I don't hear the old people crying! Do you still have old people like us in your hearts?"

"..."

The drama queen is at it again.

Zhao Peng couldn't stand his virtuous behavior at first, so he punched his shrugged shoulder with his fist: "Don't you dare to do this!"

Yao Chengwei said "ouch" after being beaten.

He threw the pillow on Zhao Peng with his backhand and stopped playing the old man in the cold palace: "Don't pick up Brother Yuan's lines!"

When he lived in Yujingwan, every time he overacted in a play, Yuan Chuan would say, "You are so stupid," and they can still remember that classic line.

Wen Qizhou and Chi Yue fell silent.

They were silent for a long time. Zhao Peng, who was the first to notice the slight change in the atmosphere, stopped playing with Yao Chengwei and looked around them: "Brother Zhou, what's wrong?"

"We met Sister Hui the year before last..."

He told them everything about Yuan Chuan's family, including Lu Hui's remarriage and the birth of a daughter.

The three of them fell into a long silence.

Parting and separation are the most common things in troubled times. Even if they are used to it, they will still feel sad for Yuan Chuan.

"Sister Hui..." Sun Rui pulled away from her grief, raised her head and asked, "Is her husband good to Jiayu?"

Wen Qizhou: "Very good."

Chi Yue: "He doesn't have to worry about food and drink in the village. He has peers who play with him, and his personality hasn't changed much."
