Calamity of Tomorrow

Next, when Zhou Bai asked the gloomy man again, he stopped answering truthfully, but mostly answered that he didn't know, reasoning that he seemed to have a little amnesia, and he didn't remember many recent things.

To Zhou Bai's surprise, the gloomy man easily expressed his belief in this and registered his basic situation.

Then the other party asked Zhou Bai some psychological questions. According to Zhou Bai's own feeling, the other party seemed to be confirming his psychological state and mental state.

Okay, there's nothing wrong with it, then you can live well here. The gloomy man murmured, Maybe there won't be many good days...

Zhou Bai questioned, What did you say?

The gloomy man gave Zhou Bai a sympathetic look, and said, Don't you know? This world is over, and the last remaining human beings on earth are only 42 people in this base, oh... counting your words , that’s 43 people.”

Zhou Bai's heart was shocked, and he looked at the other party in disbelief: How is it possible?

The gloomy man patted Zhou Bai's shoulder: Let's go, let me introduce you to your room. As for the end of the world, you will understand later.

Zhou Bai's mind was still echoing the gloomy man's words just now, and he still didn't want to believe it.

It's just a strange place, a strange body, and a language that appeared inexplicably in his mind, as well as the nine disasters of heaven and man, and the encounter with monsters before... This series of strange events made him hold back the emotion in his heart for the time being. Impulsive, intending to wait and see what happens next, and slowly figure out the situation.

The gloomy man opened the door, and saw Aisha obediently staying outside the door, like a puppy waiting for its owner to come home.

Seeing the moment the door opened, Elsa's eyes seemed to light up: Teacher! I've been waiting outside obediently!

The gloomy man raised his mouth in a rare way: Hey, Aisha, I'll show Zhou Bai the place first, and then I'll get you something to eat.

Then the three of them walked along the corridor for a while. This time Zhou Bai took a closer look at the buildings in front of him, and found that there were no windows in the places he passed, and he could not see a trace of the outside scene. This made him unable to help asking: What is this? Is the base underground?

The gloomy man glanced at Zhou Bai, and said slowly, You are very perceptive. This is an underground refuge, it can be regarded as the last paradise I built.

Zhou Bai asked, What... happened outside?

The gloomy man said coldly: The outside has turned into hell, and the base is our last hope for survival.

Saying that, he ignored Zhou Bai, took him directly to a room, opened the iron door and said, This is your and Aisha's room, Aisha, let him get acquainted, I'll get you some food.

Okay, okay. Aisha nodded happily, and followed the gloomy man while drooling.

The man had to hold her shoulders, and returned her to the room: Wait for me here.

Aisha's eyes lit up: Okay, okay.

After the man left, Zhou Bai felt inexplicably relieved.

He looked up at the room in front of him. The furniture in the room was very simple. There were two simple single beds on the left and one on the right, as well as two desks, a sink, and a squatting toilet. It was more like a cell than a bedroom.

Zhou Bai looked at the messy beds, sat on another neat single bed, and looked in the direction of the door. A little girl with blond hair, Aisha, was squatting at the door, her big blue eyes were staring at the door. .

Thinking of what the gloomy man said just now, Zhou Bai looked at the little girl in front of him, and thought to himself, This guy seems silly, why don't you try to get something out of her mouth.

Aisha, how long have you been here?

Elsa said without turning her head: How do I know! I haven't learned how to count yet!

'This guy...' Zhou Bai said, 'Why can he be so confident even if he doesn't know how to count. '

Zhou Bai asked again: Then do you know the end of the world?

Aisha nodded and said, I know! She counted them solemnly and said, The teacher said that there is nothing to eat in the outside world! It's too scary.

Zhou Bai asked again: ...Then how did I get here? You said before that I was picked...

Well, the teacher picked you up outside! Aisha said and touched her belly: I'm so hungry... why did the teacher pick up someone back? It would be great if it was a pig. It's been a long time I ate pork.

... Zhou Bai: Teacher will go out by himself?

Aisha fell to the ground: I'm so hungry...

Aisha?

Very hungry.

Zhou Bai: This idiot can't communicate at all.

After a while, the door opened again, and the gloomy man walked in, holding a plate in his hand, and he handed the plate to Aisha: Eat.

Then he handed another plate to Zhou Bai: You can eat some too.

Zhou Bai looked at the paste-like thing on the plate, and instinctively frowned. Seeing his expression, the gloomy man said: Now the base is short of supplies, so we can only eat synthetic food or nutritional biscuits.

Zhou Bai took the plate, took a bite out of it with the spoon on the plate, and immediately squeezed his face into a 囧 character, and gently put the plate aside.

Gloomy man: From now on, you will live with Aisha, and she will guide you to get familiar with this place.

Zhou Bai looked at Aisha who was happily eating the puddle of paste, and couldn't help asking, Is she reliable?

The gloomy man scratched his head: Aisha's IQ is fine, she's just too innocent.

Aisha raised her head and glanced at the dinner plate that Zhou Bai put down, with a look of covetousness.

The gloomy man hurriedly stopped him and said, Okay, Aisha, you've eaten enough today, have you forgotten the time you vomited before? Your stomach is actually full, but your brain hasn't reacted yet.

Aisha said unconvinced: My brain didn't realize that I was full, so how can I be sure that my stomach is full!

Don't eat any more, you'll vomit. The gloomy man took the plate away and turned around while walking: By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet, my name is Zhuang, you can call me Zhuang PhD.

I'm not convinced! I'm not full yet! Aisha kept jumping around the teacher, trying to grab the other's plate.

Zhou Bai: Are you sure it's okay for me to live with her? She won't eat me at night, right?

Don't worry, she's just a bit greedy, how can she eat people?

Are you sure? She's biting your hand! You're bleeding!

It's okay, she's just a little protective...

In the next few days, Zhou Bai lived in this base, and under his deliberate investigation, he also had a general understanding of the entire base.

This is a base with a total of five floors underground. The basement floor is a buffer zone. According to Dr. Zhuang, it is full of the atmosphere of hell. Without special protection, ordinary people will undoubtedly die after entering.

The second and third floors belong to the daily life area and are used by 43 people including Zhou Bai. And Zhou Bai also discovered a strange thing. Except for Dr. Zhuang, all the people in the entire base were children between the ages of seven and fifteen.

The fourth floor is a warehouse with a lot of daily necessities, and the fifth floor is a laboratory that only Dr. Zhuang can enter, and everyone except him cannot enter.
