How to Feed an Abyss!

Later, Shi Yuan heard many stories.

Some stories run along the currents of the radio.

[On July 23, the garrison at the outpost of Gleaming City temporarily retreated and returned to the defense city]

[On July 26th, Admiral Su Enqi issued an order that the coalition forces in the main city marched towards the No. 4 abyss infection group in the southeast direction. This operation was equipped with three "Viper" aircraft at the same time, implementing three-dimensional defense in all aspects]

[On the evening of July 27, the No. 4 abyss infection group was repelled, and the coalition forces triumphed. Good news came from the northern defense line of Gleaming City. Admiral Lu Tinghan commanded and deployed the second blitzkrieg, and the alliance regained control of the outpost. At present, the southeastern defense line is also being strengthened...]

Shi Yuan tried hard to understand what was happening in this world.

But there are too many technical terms, most of the time, he can only understand victory or defeat.

Some of the stories happened at the food distribution.

Shi Yuan's working hours are from 6:00 am to 4:00 pm, with an hour's lunch break in between.

He knows the way, and distributes bread, rice, and stir-fried vegetables every day. The work is boring, but fortunately, he has always been patient, and he is working on the human observation project while cooking.

—Lu Tinghan asked him to witness the courage of human beings.

He's trying hard.

Not far away is the dining area, where dozens of tables and chairs are neatly lined up.

People who work nearby, regardless of status, will sit crowded together. It was a very magical place. There were countless people with different expressions, joy, anger, sorrow, love and hatred, intertwined in the short ten minutes of the meal here.

There are no customers for a while, Shi Yuan will sit next to the hot bread and observe the dining place.

A father and son complained that they didn't take a hot bath yesterday, and their bodies were rotten. The woman grabbed her friend's hand and said that the hospital beds are tight now, and her father will be hospitalized in three days; Huihui dared to sit down, and at the table next to them, the soldier sat upright, with blood oozing from the bandages on his hands.

It's been a good few weeks, and generally speaking, the atmosphere is pretty good.

Shi Yuan watched for a long time, but didn't see any "courage", but listened to the gossip story of the father and son with relish.

"Why are you always in a daze?" Aunt Li, who worked together, asked him.

Shi Yuan replied, "I'm observing."

"What is there to observe?" Aunt Li wondered, "Look at you like this, as if you have never seen anyone before."

It is indeed rare. Shi Yuan curled up his tail guiltily.

Aunt Li is a passionate person. Like many aunts, her hobby engraved in her DNA is matchmaking—even in this case, she still has a sincere heart to achieve little love in the world. Will pull the monster matchmaker.

Shi Yuan is good-looking, standing on the stage stunningly, with flowers and love letters constantly, now wearing overalls and lowering his hat, in just two weeks, he was also targeted by Aunt Li.

"Shiyuan," the radio creaked during the lunch break, playing the latest news, Aunt Li asked seriously while eating bread, "Do you already have a date?"

"No." Shi Yuan replied while observing the humans. He and Lu Tinghan still don't form a relationship that requires mating.

Aunt Li's spirit of matchmaking was on fire immediately: "Then, how many girls shall I introduce to you?"

Shi Yuan shook his head.

Aunt Li: "I know the situation is tense, but people have to live. If you talk to each other, you won't feel so uncomfortable, right? When the peak period is over, wouldn't it be a good relationship? The opportunity cannot be missed It's not time to come."

Shi Yuan said: "But, I have 1 in my family, the very fierce and powerful one."

Aunt Li spat out a mouthful of bread.

Never talk about matchmaking again.

When everyone had finished eating, some fell asleep leaning against the wall, and some fell asleep lying on the table, their faces were full of exhaustion. Soon, the lunch break was over, and they woke up one after another and returned to their posts.

Shi Yuan saw the backs of them leaving, tall or weak, in various poses.

When he got off work that day, the alliance officially announced the infection of Abyss 0.

The experts on the holographic image analyzed the infection characteristics of the "Black Queen" in detail, showing its infection value hundreds of thousands of times, and its immortal body. They knocked down the black crystal, put it in a container, and sealed it with a high-concentration inhibitory liquid. The crystal had a strange and beautiful radiance, as if it had frozen time.

"...If citizens see similar crystals and similar infection characteristics, please report to the military as soon as possible." The expert said, "Please don't panic, this is the only infected individual No. 0 we have seen."

Still, the remarks sparked a great deal of panic.

Aunt Li put down the rice spoon and nervously rubbed her hands on the apron, repeatedly.

Shi Yuan comforted her and said, "Don't worry, it's a good abyss, and it won't infect other creatures again."

Aunt Li said: "What's the use of being good! The girl I introduced to you is also a good girl, why don't you want it?"

Shi Yuan was dazed by her logic, and didn't know how to refute it. After helping the last customer with a meal, he took the bus home.

The bus passed the Garcia Grand Theater. The porters in front of them scattered the logs on the road and were packing them up. They could only wait on the spot.

Outside the window is the main entrance of the theater, the marble statues are still there, the man in the velvet hat and the woman with raised hands; his promotional posters and aphrodisiac oil advertisements are also there, but the gate has been fenced, and the hall is full of supplies, which has become a warehouse up.

As soon as the car stopped, everyone in the car was discussing Abyss 0.

Shi Yuan never felt that he was so famous.

He thought, if only he was famous all the time, and he could help the troupe to publicize and get sponsors, so that he would no longer have to post advertisements for aphrodisiac oil.

The logs were taken back and the bus moved forward, leaving the theater behind.

On this day, when Shi Yuan returned to the door of the house, the light in the living room was on.

Lu Tinghan is back.

Shi Yuan opened the door. Lu Tinghan sat on the sofa, leaned back, and looked up at the ceiling—just like before, Shi Yuan's upside down face suddenly occupied his entire line of sight.

"Don't look at the ceiling!" Shi Yuan's tail swayed happily, "Lu Tinghan, look at me!"

Lu Tinghan patted the sofa, Shi Yuan rushed over immediately, nestled beside him, and wanted to touch him in satisfaction.

He said, "You came back so early today!"

"Well, the infection group in Abyss No. 2 has been wiped out." Lu Tinghan said, "I will be in the city for the next few days."

This is great news for Shi Yuan, he said: "Then can you continue to teach me?"

Lu Tinghan replied: "Yes."

——Shi Yuan always felt that his common sense was weak, and wanted to learn more, Lu Tinghan agreed to teach him, but unfortunately he really couldn't spare the time, and finally got free today.

Five minutes later, many complicated maps appeared in front of Shi Yuan.

"Today I'll teach you how to read maps, it's very simple." Lu Tinghan said, "These are military maps, and the difference from civilian maps is that they have many contour lines, and the topography and landforms such as watermarks and highlands are very detailed. , such as dry paddy fields, as well as the depth of swamps, abandoned bunkers, surface passability, etc.”

Shi Yuan: "Wow!"

Lu Tinghan continued: "The types of troops stationed, the number of defenders, suitable firepower points and observation points are all on the top. Different areas are numbered to facilitate fire support and firepower coverage. Military maps are confidential documents and cannot be disclosed. You’re looking at a map from 60 years ago, this area is no longer there.”

Shi Yuan: "Wow!"

He felt more and more that humans were too smart, especially his humans.

Lu Tinghan pointed to the first map: "Let's start with the contour line. A contour line is a closed curve formed by connecting points with equal elevations. On military maps, its surveying and mapping is very accurate..."

Shi Yuan tilted his head and listened carefully.

But as he listened, he began to lose his mind.

Lu Tinghan concentrated on explaining - on this kind of topic, he is always very focused, and he can even be called enthusiastic.

Lu Tinghan finally realized something was wrong when Shi Yuan's tail bent into the fifth question mark.

He said, "Shiyuan, don't look at me, just focus on the map."

"Okay." Shi Yuan agreed.

But just like before, when he was reading the script by Lu Tinghan's side, as he looked at it, his eyes drifted to Lu Tinghan again.

Lu Tinghan stopped: "You have to concentrate on doing things, didn't you say you need to learn common sense?"

Shi Yuan said: "However, even I know that the depth of the ooze layer, the grade of the road, and the deployment of armored troops are not common sense..."

Lu Tinghan: "Of course these are common sense."

Shi Yuan tilted his head: "No."

Lu Tinghan: "Yes."

Shi Yuan asked: "This is really not your own hobby, do you want to teach me?"

Lu Tinghan denied it flatly: "How is it possible."

Lu Tinghan swears, Shi Yuan is extremely confused, wondering whether he has misunderstood human common sense. Before he could think clearly, Lu Tinghan tapped the table with his finger bones and started talking about armored soldiers again.

Shi Yuan was like a primary school student who was forced to learn quantum mechanics, or a primary school student who couldn't understand anything after sleeping in class for three minutes, feeling dizzy. He took a cold shower before going to bed, but he still didn't wake up.

It was rare for Lu Tinghan to come back to spend the night, so he acquiesced to Shi Yuan occupying his bed.

As soon as Shi Yuan went to bed, Lu Tinghan felt the coolness: "Did you take a cold shower?"

"Yeah," Shi Yuan said, "I'm a little dizzy..." The scales of his tail were slightly blown due to the cold, and he curled up his tail and slowly took care of the scales.

Lu Tinghan was silent for a while, as if recalling what he had taught Shi Yuan to make Shi Yuan so confused.

——He felt that what he said was the simplest knowledge from the shallower to the deeper. Shi Yuan must have enjoyed the learning process, immersed in the ocean of knowledge, and then fell in love with military affairs from the bottom of his heart.

Shi Yuan was still arranging the scales, Lu Tinghan called out: "Shi Yuan."

Shi Yuan shivered, and his tail exploded again: "Stop telling me how to plan the offensive line and evacuation area...!"

"Don't talk about that." Lu Tinghan said, "Xia Fang has news."

He just received a report from his subordinates. Xia Fang's matter was finally investigated and revealed.

——On the day of the breakup meal, the road to the outside of the city was blocked, but Xia Fang got acquainted with a regular customer from the bar and connected a veteran.

The veteran took him 7,000 yuan and promised to take him to Fengyang City. Along with Xia Fang were three other citizens. The veteran forged the pass, picked the most chaotic moment of the changing of the guard, and drove the crowd out of the city.

They passed the sentry post, but an accident happened.

The wilderness is dangerous, and stopping traffic during peak hours is the best choice. They were alone in a car and encountered a swarm of infected bats.

Two people in the car died and three were injured. Fortunately, the veterans had rich experience and the modified car was of high quality, so they drove them to Fengyang City abruptly.

For the rest of their lives, they were forced to be hospitalized for treatment.

A group of people covered in bruises, strange self-modified vehicles, and a few people's guilty and vague attitudes quickly aroused suspicion. The military found out that there was a problem with the pass and arrested them in accordance with the law. Xia Fang and another passenger were arrested without a fight.

This has never happened before.

There are many things to check, from fake passes to changing guards, to the source of guns and vehicle modification materials, all of which need to be investigated thoroughly.

"It is our military's responsibility to find out what happened." Lu Tinghan told Shi Yuan, "Xia Fang escaped from the ward and handed over the stolen money to another hospital, where his mother was. He was arrested at his mother's hospital bed."

"So that's the case." Shi Yuan opened his eyes slightly, "Fortunately, he didn't have any accidents outside the city. But, this is money for Ms. Isabella, the troupe has saved it for so long... If he tells us, we It will definitely help him."

Lu Tinghan: "Judging from the hospital's report, his mother's condition deteriorated suddenly, and he needed exorbitant surgery fees in a short period of time. He didn't have much room for thinking and choice. Besides, he also wanted to see her in person. "He touched Shi Yuan's head, "Everyone changes, and he will get the justice he deserves in court."

Before Shi Yuan answered, he began to rub his head violently——Shi Yuan's IQ growth was suppressed, and he immediately became happy.

Just before going to bed, Shi Yuan said that he wanted to listen to his stories about the front line.

Lu Tinghan said two things.

He said that the outpost also encountered infected bats. Those creatures are particularly sensitive to blood, but they are afraid of high-power searchlights;

He said that the battle situation in the main city is also good. Su Enqi just took back an abandoned hideout and found a large amount of military supplies.

After he finished speaking, he asked, "Why do you want to hear this all of a sudden?"

"I want to know more about this kind of story." Shi Yuan said, "You said let me 'witness'."

Lu Tinghan smiled: "There's no need to be so deliberate. War is something I should worry about."

Shi Yuan's tail bent out the 18th question mark today: "Then what should I worry about?"

"You should worry about whether you will catch a cold if you take a cold shower." Lu Tinghan replied, "Now wrap the quilt tightly and put your tail back. It's time to sleep."

Shi Yuan closed his eyes and fell asleep.

The dream was full of horrible armor and contour lines, swamps and retreat areas dancing hand in hand above his head.

The next morning, Lu Tinghan left again.

Shi Yuan continued to work at the food distribution place, and heard Lu Tinghan's name on the radio, and there were battles that were won or lost. There were people coming and going in the distribution office, and he saw many people—they were already very tired, gobbled up their meals, and snored all day long in their sleep. But Shi Yuan still felt that there was something in them that Lu Tinghan wanted him to see.

Time soon came to the beginning of September in 241.

The number of infections in Abyss No. 1 soared all the way, and the abyss monitors issued an early warning and quickly evacuated back to the nearest outpost.

The alliance army stood ready, Lu Tinghan and Su Enqi ran around, day and night, and finally repelled the frantic infection group.

At 2:11 am on September 7, when the last red dot representing the monster disappeared on the screen, the entire command center cheered.

Su Enqi couldn't suppress his smile, and got up to find Lu Tinghan.

Lu Tinghan never cheered along, with such a personality, he would leave silently amid applause every time. This time was no exception, he went to the lounge on the top floor.

When Su Enqi reached the door of the lounge, he heard him on the phone.

——The tone of his speech was completely different from usual, with a bit of hoarseness after staying up all night, and almost gentle.

Su Enqi couldn't hear the content of the conversation clearly, but just by listening to the tone, he knew it. He stood outside the door and waited until he heard "Good night, Shi Yuan" from inside the house before he opened the door and went in.

Lu Tinghan sat in front of the French window. It was raining outside, and the water droplets rolled down the glass. Outside the window was a sleeping city, and farther away was the wasteland.

"It's really not easy this time." Su Enqi smiled and pulled out a chair to sit down. "You can rest for a few days. Go home and spend time with your little lover."

Lu Tinghan didn't answer, his eyes kept looking out of the window, as if he was looking at something that no one else could see through the rain curtain.

Su Enqi asked: "What's wrong?"

After a long time, Lu Tinghan said, "There are still three large transport ships in the alliance, which can support the transportation of tens of thousands of people at the same time."

Su Enqi raised his eyebrows: "Why do you mention this, you want to send airborne troops?"

"No, no, I was wondering how long it would take to transfer the residents." Lu Tinghan turned to look at him, there seemed to be a dark tide in his gray-blue eyes, "I think we might have to abandon Gleaner City."
