The System Sent Me an Object [End of the World]

Shi Gong Dui became optimistic about this issue, “We all know that many people will avoid the first and second-tier cities after the zombie outbreak, so the railroads, highways, and other modes of transportation have been under greater pressure than during Spring Festival and has become a buffet for zombies. Big cities have a lot of cruise ships, yachts that can drive to these less crowded cities. As long as we look along the riverside, we’re bound to find many suitable boats.”

When they returned to the river, they didn’t want to imagine anything so no one said anything.

No one made dinner, because all the food that could be cooked had been eaten. Although there’s still a little, it’s a lot of trouble cooking it over a fire, so they can only drink cup noodles; jellyfish flavor, cold vegetables, etc.

The jellyfish flavor and cold vegetables are actually in bags. One can simply open them and stir them with the seasoning packet inside and can be eaten directly. Although one can’t fill the stomach, they can always eat a few more to be full.

What’s more, they may return to the city tomorrow. Food isn’t more important than ensuring one’s safety because they don’t know whether they will survive or not!

After Shi Gong Dui had confirmed all the supplies he found and there wasn’t any food he missed, he took out his own snacks to share with everyone, “Although we have only known each other for three days, his journey wouldn’t have been possible without all of you. I couldn’t come here either–“

Before he could finish speaking, Peng Mao hurriedly covered his mouth, “Shut up! Don’t raise a flag!”

Shi Gong Dui curled his lips, saying that it was indeed too early.

Hao Jian, who wasn’t interested in Shi Gong Dui’s snacks, got up and said, “I’ll go outside to do my rounds.”

But Xin Ting came back with the rice cutter and said with a smile, “I added gasoline to it and found that it still works. Hao Jian, take it and go on your rounds!”

Shi Gong Dui added, “Sister, this is what I found for you to use!”

Xin Ting was startled and then became a little embarrassed, “I, I just thought that since it’s dark already, it’s too dangerous outside. No matter who’s on duty, it’s best to use this. . .”

“You did the right thing!” Hao Jian nodded. Lian Ru Ning also came forward to praise Xin Ting while Peng Mao naturally stood by Xin Ting’s side. Shi Gong Dui, who saw this, can only raise his hands in defeat.

The sky soon darkened. Perhaps because the place was too close to first and second-tier cities that the sound of insects that could normally be heard in Xinghua City in the past has disappeared. Even the sound of the wind was absent. The place was truly silent.

At the same time, no one dared to sleep peacefully because the air carried a hint of danger. They had to be alert and ready to watch out for those zombies that could appear at any time.

The rice cutter’s performance at night was surprisingly well. Hao Jian thought that the gears were only effective against plants like straw, but when it came to the necks of the zombies, it reminded her of a chainsaw. . . which is not much worse than a chainsaw.

And this night, the people slept no more than three hours, because, during this period, zombies appeared one after another. In order to keep them from gathering into a group, they always need to go out and clean them up. In such a night, there were already a lot of zombies outside the factory and they were already exhausted.

Among them, Hao Jian wiped out seven or eight zombies in the first half of the night, and then the number of zombies eliminated after midnight reached 21. It can be seen that the number of zombies surrounding them in the second half of the night has doubled.

So at four o’clock, the group had to pack up again in advance and prepare for the road.

Because the street lights have long been without power, the whole mountain road is dark. Only after four did the sky gradually fade from black to blue. They could use the brightening sky with their headlights to distinguish their surroundings.

If it was in the middle of the lunar calendar when the moon is big and bright and there is moonlight showering and illuminating the road at night, they wouldn’t mind driving t night. it’s only a pity that it’s August 7th, while during the 25th of June in the lunar calendar, the moon is so curved that it’s almost invisible.

Peng Mao drove the car first. When Hao Jian was about to drive, Lain Ru Ning suddenly took her hand.

Feeling the tremor on the back of her hand, Hao Jian turned around and looked at Lian Ru Ning quietly.

Last night, Lian Ru Ning spoke very little and as the number of zombies appeared more and more frequently, her mood soon became very heavy.

Hao Jian thought she was anxious, so she have her a hug, “There’s a large number of soldiers over in Xiang city, so although there are many zombies, relatively speaking, there are also many people who can give us information and guidance, so don’t worry.”

Lian Ru Ning was indeed a little anxious, but it wasn’t about whether they would be able to get through Xiang city to reach Southern city.

She replied, “I’m selfish and because you have wisdom and strength, I convinced myself and believed that you intend to go to Southern city as well and we could travel together and I wouldn’t have to endure loneliness and solitude. But the closer we get to Xiang city, the more scared I am. I can no longer bear the thought that my selfishness might put you in deep trouble!”

Before Lian Ru Ning couldn’t have imagined how dangerous first-tier cities would be, after all, all she experienced were cities with relatively small resident populations like Kaishi city, Jiang city, and Xinghua city. Most of their time was spent on the road and they even take desolate roads, so she hasn’t seen a real desperate city.

But after arriving here, as the zombies appeared more and more frequently, she also finally realized that even a remote suburb will have a danger level 8 at any time.

Sho she couldn’t let herself be so selfish for her family who she doesn’t even know whether they’re dead or alive. She’s merely dragging Hao Jian to danger and she can’t bear it.

Yes, because her heart cares deeply about Hao Jian, hoping to always see her radiant face, eyes full of wisdom, and lips that can say the most beautiful words in the world. . .

Every detail of her time with Hao Jian was emphasized by her and she became more certain in her conflicting feelings between guilt and love – she wants Hao Jian to survive.

“I hope that the burden of my selfishness will only be carried by myself. life is so precious, you’re only 23 years old. You have decades of life ahead and you have more to come, so I can’t let you gamble 90% of your life on the possibility of finding my family who I’m not sure they’re alive—“

Hao Jian held her face and suddenly kissed her, blocking all her words in her throat.

The kiss was as fierce as a storm, but also like the calm eye of the storm as if experiencing a violent storm in the sea, and also enjoying the warm sun on the beach. It gives people an adrenaline rush while also makes people with anxiety calm down. . .

“Actually, I lied to you about something. . . If it made you feel uncomfortable because you confessed to me, I actually knew that I liked Lian Ru Ning, my little junior sister, since before. I also knew that you liked me since you would always look at me secretly, maybe thinking about why is there such a beautiful girl or maybe worrying about what to do if you really do like me. . .”

Lian Ru Ning’s eyes went wide, there are Hao Jian’s words of confession, but also Hao Jian shamelessly flattering herself.

“Maybe at that time, I took the initiative to confess a little and I didn’t have to worry about you rejecting me. But I don’t want us to be like my mom and dad, nor do I want us to be like Chen Zhen and Huang Sheng because I think that even if we go through a lot of difficulties and find your family, we may still have that day where we have to separate and then live a day where we can’t contact each other that we don’t know if the other’s alive or dead.”

Lian Ru Ning’s eyes were moist. She knew that, but she had;t been thinking about the possibility of separating in the future. She couldn’t understand the torment that Chen Zhen and Huang Sheng are going through.

Now that she figured it out, she knows why she didn’t want to think about it was because of her selfishness. She decided to be brave enough to face her selfishness and that’s why she made up her mind, just like Chen Zhen handing her ring to them, hoping that they would pass it on to Huang Sheng. Whether Huang Sheng was alive or not, Chen Zhen has already accepted their fate.

“Then why did you respond to me again?” Lian Ru Ning asked.

Hao Jian’s thumb brushed over Lian Ru Ning’s eyelids and said, “Why are you crying, little sister? I responded to you because I was thinking. . . how Chen Xiuzhu waited for Hao Kan, how Chen Zhen accepted Huang Sheng’s absence, I’m not any of them. I don’t want to separate from little sister and I won’t leave little sister alone.”

Lian Ru Ning had tears in her eyes but still glared at her, “How could you call your parents by their names?!”

Hao Jian chuckled, “I promise, I’ll do everything possible to survive, and if I can’t, I’ll die together with you.”

Lian Ru Ning immediately covered her mouth, “Take that back! No crow’s mouth1!”

Hao Jian pointed to her hand, indicating that she had covered it, so how could she spit? Lian Ru Ning had to let go, but instead of taking her words back, Hao Jian caught her lips and kissed her several times.

Shi Gong Dui took the walkie-talkie and asked, “Student Hao, why haven’t you guys caught up?”

“It was convenient to go just now, we’ll catch up now.” Hao Jian answered.

“Is it the ‘convenient’ I’m thinking of?”

“Whatever you think.”

Hao Jian got on the motorcycle and then reached out towards Lian Ru Ning, “Let’s go, little sister. you’re not selfish, you’re just. . . too gentle.”

Lian Ru Ning placed her hand on hers then sat behind Hao Jian, hugging her waist from behind. As soon as she was about to say something, she heard Hao Jian remind her again, “Hold tight, junior sister.”

As soon as she applied a little bit of strength, the motorcycle started and then wheeled out.

I think this chapter is dedicated to showcasing some fluffy and fangirling moments and forcing us to eat dog food. . .

I was so close to twisting my own body because of how sweet the two are. . .
