A quiet night once again fell on this Noah's city. There was only a bright moon in the sky. Today's moon was big and round, as if it was the Mid-Autumn Festival. The silver moon was dyed with a warm yellow color, making her look extra warm tonight.
Asuna and I sat back to back on the city gate. I had short hair and a black combat uniform. I bent one leg and hugged my knee. She had long curly hair and a long skirt hanging from the city gate, swaying lightly in the night wind. The moonlight drew out our silhouettes, like a boy and a girl.
In fact, the one under us is not a city gate. It is at most three meters high and can only be called the entrance to the underground city. After entering this entrance, the passage will also change, so the passage everyone usually enters and exits will be different from the one Xingchuan entered that day. .
"Woo~~~~~Woo~~~~~" The second sister sat by the city gate and started sobbing again.
"What is she doing?" Asuna looked at the second sister curiously.
I looked at it: "She is probably summoning her companions."
"Summon other flying corpse monsters?!" Asuna turned slightly and sounded worried.
I also turned to look at her: "What's wrong?"
She turned back and said, "It's nothing." Although she said it was nothing, I heard the worry in her voice. After all, the Flying Corpse Monster is a highly aggressive mutant, so her worries are normal.
"Don't worry, the second sister can communicate with us. If other flying corpse monsters come, she will help us communicate."
"Well..." Asuna nodded, "This is the first time we have taken in the flying zombie monsters. In the past, although we were not enemies, we would stay away from them. Luo Bing, you made us get to know the flying zombie monsters again. You are right. Yes, they are human beings.”
Asuna's understanding, kindness and tolerance made me feel ashamed for forcing the flying corpse monster to stay without caring about the safety of others: "I'm sorry, Asuna, I didn't consider the safety of the people in Noah City at the beginning... "
"Luo Bing, in this world, monsters may be more trustworthy than humans. You don't need to make any apology, because what you have brought to us far exceeds this."
Asuna's words made me even more ashamed. She is such a beautiful and kind girl, and she is far more mature than me. In front of her, I am simply an ignorant little sister.
"Are you still getting used to it today?" she asked with concern, "Did the members of the exploration team bully you?"
"No, they are very good to me..." I looked up at the night sky. Today's night sky didn't look so desolate and lonely. The whole sky was full of stars, and the long Milky Way spanned above us. It was beautiful.
"I want to go out." I am eager to go out, especially after joining the exploration team, my desire to go out is even stronger. I want to find more resources and repay Noah City for saving me.
"Well... I understand." Asuna smiled softly, "I also want to go out, but I can't, but now you can, go out and see the world for me, Luo Bing, I'm so envious You, you can go out..." She leaned back on my shoulder, "I heard Harry say that there is a ruins to the west of us. It is in the center of the radiation, so no one can go there, Luo. Bing, if you go there, can you help me look for rose seeds?"
"Roses?" It turns out that Asuna likes roses. I asked her sideways in confusion, "Does the radiation center really have resources? I mean I forgot, but I saw that the radiation area was so polluted..."
"It's different, Luo Bing." Behind her was her voice with a faint smile, "Because it is a radiation center, the strong radiation prevents other pollution from getting close. On the contrary, it protects the ruins very well. In my eyes, radiation It's more like a kind of protection. It protects those ruins so that nothing can harm it and no creature can get close to it..." Asuna's language is always so beautiful, as beautiful as her person. The radiation that others are afraid of, but in her eyes, is a kind of protection.
"So that's it..." I used my own method to understand what Asuna said. It should be like a virus that is too powerful and other viruses cannot invade, and this kind of radiation pollution will not cause any damage to dead objects. Corruptive destruction.
"But the resources found will also contain high levels of radiation. However, as long as you can bring them out and away from the radiation, we can purify it and make it usable." Asuna's voice was full of expectation. "I wonder if I can have a bouquet of flowers at my coming-of-age ceremony."
I turned around to look at her. She was looking up at the stars, with a hopeful smile on her lips. I smiled: "I will help you find rose seeds later. I have one sunflower seed. Do you want it? At least you will have it at your coming-of-age ceremony." A sunflower." I couldn't help but laugh. Thinking about her grand adult ceremony, she was holding a sunflower in her hand. I couldn't imagine the scene.
"Really?" Asuna turned around in surprise and held my arm, "Do you really have sunflower seeds?!"
I nodded: "I forgot about it for a while. I will give it to Lessius when I get back later."
Asuna smiled happily and held my arm: "Luo Bing, you always surprise me. Elder Alufa said that you are our Noah's treasure. This time he was right!"
I smiled sheepishly.
"Also, you have a beautiful smile. I thought you, like Xue Ji, can't smile..." She leaned on my shoulder, and a shooting star flashed across the sky.
You were so nervous before, how could you dare to relax? I look at the sky, the twinkling stars are like pairs of bright eyes, and I will laugh at everything that comes next. Dad, Mom, don’t worry, your life is like Xiaoqiang’s daughter, and you will live happily here.
Because the purification and reuse of water use energy, and in order to save limited energy, I always use cold water for washing. I can tolerate this because my retired father has trained me long ago. In outdoor survival, in addition to I really can't eat it raw or eat worms, but I basically persisted in other things.
So using cold water is not a problem for me.
I also washed the second sister's face by the way. The second sister also pays great attention to hygiene. If I hadn't stopped her, she would have wanted to take a bath in the reservoir of Noah City... The place where we drink water is really a reservoir...
When we returned to Lessius's machine repair warehouse, Lessius was restoring his wiring on the glass panel. He turned to us and said while writing: "Harry, Luo Bing is going to sleep here. Don't enter casually at night." .”
Lessius mistook me for Harry, and the second sister walked back to her home. Lessius continued writing, but his hand speed slowed down a bit: "Harry, why did you bring the second sister back? Where is Luo Bing?" No, why are you so short..." He looked at me. The moment he saw me, Lessius was stunned, and the hand holding the pen stopped on the glass plate. He stared blankly. I, as Harry first saw me, seemed to be seeing another person.
