Chapter 1
Today is the last day of 2088, December 12st, and tomorrow is the new year. If in the past, every first day of the new year, except for some special industries that must stick to their posts, others such as government schools, enterprises and institutions will have a holiday, Let's welcome the New Year together.

It's just that, for Chen Xinyue and the others, this kind of festive day seemed to have passed for many years, and it had long been buried in the depths of memory.

At this time, it was already dawn, and in an extremely dilapidated house, a wall had collapsed to the ground. In the remaining half of the house, there was no furniture at all, and the thick dust on the ground could be vaguely seen, covered with dust. Deep and shallow footprints.

In the only corner of the room, there were several figures sitting closely together at this time. Although they were close together, there was still a shivering sound coming from the crowd from time to time, because, the raging The cold wind is whistling from the open door and the collapsed wall.

In front of them, there was a pile of ashes, and occasionally there were a little bit of sparks emitting a faint red light. It was presumably because a fire was lit at night and it was almost extinguished by now.

"You said, are we going back to the supply point today?" A trembling female voice asked softly.

Hearing that his buddy Zhang Cancan asked this question as soon as he woke up, Chen Xinyue tightened the blanket she was wearing, and did not answer, because this question has been asked so many times in the past two days, no matter whether she answers it or not, the result is the same .

"If we can't complete the task, we won't be able to exchange food when we go back, and those who are waiting for us will starve to death." It was Luo Fan who spoke, Zhang Cancan's boyfriend, a handsome young man, but when he spoke, his voice was hoarse and ugly .

Upon hearing this, no one in the crowd spoke again.

After a while, Chen Xinyue heard a low sigh.

"Unless you two girls are willing to do that kind of thing, then you may still survive." Luo Fan said again.

"Luo Fan, don't say it anymore, I, I will not be sorry to you, I will never do such a thing, even if we starve to death tomorrow, I am willing to die with you." Zhang Cancan was shocked when he heard this. In a hurry, he swore and took Luo Fan's hand and said.

"Yueyue wouldn't do that kind of thing either." Zhang Cancan seemed to add another sentence for emphasis.

"If that day really comes, maybe I will think about it, but now, isn't it dead? We still have a chance." Chen Xinyue's throat was also very dry, and she stood up while talking.

Although it is said that people should live with dignity, but if she is asked to choose between dignity and death, then she would rather choose to live. As long as she can live, then even if she is a man, a slave, or even goes to She is also willing to do what Luo Fan said.

Because she can't die, she has a thousand reasons for not dying, she wants to live, no matter what method she uses, she must live well, only if she lives, can she be worthy of her grandparents who have always regarded her as a treasure, only by living If she goes down, she will be able to find them and find those people to avenge them.

What's more, she is Chen Xinyue, she will not starve to death, even if all the people on the earth starve to death, she will not starve to death!
"Yueyue, we've been out for four days, but we haven't gotten an energy bead yet. If we don't get it today, then we all know what's waiting for us." The man named Luo Fan spoke The room seemed a little disheartened.

gurgling, gurgling...

This is the sound coming from their respective stomachs. They have not eaten a bite of food for 24 hours. The only bottle of mineral water was only the last third after everyone drank a few sips yesterday. up.

"Get up, it's almost dawn, we have to hurry up, maybe we can get the energy beads today, and then we can go back to the supply point to exchange for food." The one who spoke was Luo Fan's cousin, Fang Deyue.

He is a veteran, about 1.8 meters tall. Although his body is as thin as a bamboo pole due to hunger like everyone else, he still stands in front of everyone with his head held high and his face covered with a cloth towel. In the piercing eyes, there is a determination to never give up.

"Brother Fang, can we really get energy beads today?" Seeing this, Zhang Cancan got up and looked at Fang Deyue with hope.

If one of these four people is the most credible, it is undoubtedly Fang Deyue, who was born in the military, because he is the strongest and the most skilled person among the four. We are together these days, all because of him, The four of them barely survived until now.

If it wasn't for the burden of Chen Xinyue and the others, he must still have enough food so far, so he wouldn't be as hungry as them.

"If I can't get the energy beads today, then I have to make a decision." Chen Xinyue took a deep look at Fang Deyue, then at Zhang Cancan and Luo Fan. These three people have been with her for three full months , I have always taken good care of myself. If that time really comes, I can't just watch them die like this.

After folding the blanket and putting it in the backpack, Chen Xinyue tightened her clothes, picked up something from the corner of the wall, held it up to her eyes and examined it carefully, but it turned out to be a machete.

The other three also bent down and picked up their own weapons. Fang Deyue's was a large fire axe, Luo Fan's was a long knife, and Zhang Cancan's was a large kitchen knife.

Then, Fang Deyue took a few steps forward and removed the four three-meter-long steel pipes that were temporarily used as barriers on the door and the collapsed wall. This was another weapon they had.

Stepping out of the gate, although the house was extremely dilapidated, it was better than the outside. Chen Xinyue shivered unconsciously in the wind, but she gritted her teeth and walked out of the room following Fang Deyue.

"Yueyue, wait for me." Zhang Cancan's voice came from behind, and then, Chen Xinyue felt a chill on her arm, and that was because she hugged her arm with one hand.

Chen Xinyue did not break free, but continued to walk forward in line with her pace.

Although it wasn't snowing, but because it was still early in the morning and the sun hadn't risen, there was still a layer of gray-black thick frost on the ground, plus it was frozen, and people stepped on it and made creaking sounds.

"It's so cold, I don't know if it will snow." Zhang Cancan leaned towards Chen Xinyue while tightening his body and asked in a low voice.

"I don't know. If it snows, then our life will be even more difficult." Chen Xinyue looked at the sky and shook her head. In the current sky, there is no sign of snow or not.

Even on a sunny day, the sky is gray and the visibility is extremely low. Moreover, there is a pungent smell in the air. Otherwise, the four of them would not have used cloth towels to wipe the air. Covered his mouth and nose.
