Chapter 157 I Want to Lay My Hands Out
Unable to struggle, He Liang transformed into the Black Shadow Evasion and left.
" Sister Miao, you've got way too much strength in your hands."
"You little brat, you want a beating, don't you?"
He Liang dared not utter a sound, silently drawing circles in the shadows and cursing Yu Miaomiao.
This playful banter lightened the atmosphere considerably.
"Alright, jokes aside, we still need to prepare seriously."
Yu Miaomiao stood up, casually patted Sesame Paste's big head, and then said, "This time it's probably more difficult than any previous incident. It's fraught with difficulties, and I'm not sure if I can handle it. So let's brainstorm and see if we have any reasonable suggestions. K can adjust the route first."
" Anan, I'm leaving the contact with Chu Bai to you."
" He Liang, although you always like to joke around, your intuition and perception have always been excellent. This investigation task will be entrusted to you, is that alright?"
He Liang, unusually, emerged from the shadows and nodded seriously, "Of course, I'd be more than happy to. It's what I should do, and I'm glad to be able to contribute to everyone."
Under the celestial phenomenon of Polar Day, the land is shrouded in endless daylight, with no alternation of day and night, and time seems to lose its boundaries.
It was already past midnight, but everyone was having trouble falling asleep.
Logically, a Polar Day should bring cold air, butthe laws of the Post-Apocalyptic World seem to defy normal scientific reasoning.
We are still in the midst of a Polar Day and extreme heat cycle, with the sun still fiercely scorching the earth.
"Why is it still so hot? Is it because the sun never sets?"
Xu Nanwei opened the car window to get some fresh air, but the heat wave rushing in from outside made her quickly close the window again.
"If you're asking me about science, my answer would be that, theoretically, atmospheric circulation and pressure distribution during a Polar Day could cause frequent cold waves or cold air masses to disturb the polar regions, further leading to and maintaining low temperatures. But clearly, the current situation cannot be explained by science."
K, while driving, processed the information via brain-computer interface and provided a response to Xu Nanwei.
My child has recently reached the age where he asks a million questions, but Yu Miaomiao has found that K is a very good teacher. He is patient and can answer any question, no matter how many times or how many times it is asked.
fine.
She's growing to like K more and more.
"I think the extreme heat is almost over."
Yu Miaomiao lay on the table, her head tilted to one side, and whispered something.
" Sister Miao, I've noticed that you seem to always be able to foresee things, and you're always pretty accurate." He Liang leaned closer again with a cheeky grin. "Are you some kind of time traveler? Like the protagonist in an anime… And you always manage to escape danger, it's like you're surrounded by a protagonist's halo."
"Have you ever heard that a woman's sixth sense is usually terrifyingly accurate?" Xu Nanwei walked over like a little adult and grabbed He Liang's ear. "Go away, go away, don't bother my Sister Miaomiao here."
In the previous life, the Polar Day came after the extreme heat, but it didn't overlap for such a long time. It was like waking up to daylight and then there was no more darkness for a long time.
In this life, many things are different. Perhaps she wasn't reborn, but rather traveled to another parallel world.
Left and right had no idea what to do next, so Yu Miaomiao simply stopped thinking about it, took out her laptop from her spatial storage, found a movie she had downloaded beforehand, grabbed a bag of potato chips, and started watching with great interest.
She would occasionally feed the dog, and the time flew by. When she got a little tired, she found that the car was quiet and everyone had fallen asleep at some point. Only she, the energetic Sesame Paste, and the tireless driver K were still awake.
She realized she still had the speakers on, but no one reminded her to turn it down. She silently put on her headphones and continued to enjoy this solitary moment of relaxation.
She recalled her life before the Post-Apocalyptic World, when she used to enjoy this solitude. In her busy life, only the night belonged to her.
She was immersed in the movie plot, feeling a mix of emotions. The sudden arrival of the apocalypse shattered all the familiar aspects of her life.
My favorite variety shows and anime will never be updated again, movies will never be released, books will never be published again, and human civilization is truly going to disappear.
The arrival of the Post-Apocalyptic Worldbrought their peaceful lives to an abrupt end, leaving them only with escape and conflict.
The "lying flat" life that I initially looked forward to was not so easy to achieve.
The flickering lights on the screen intertwined with the breathing of the sleeping companions inside the car, creating a unique harmony.
As the movie drew to a close, Yu Miaomiaogently pressed the pause button, reluctantly pulling herself away from that brief escape from reality.
"Want something to drink?" Lu An tiptoed downstairs and, seeing that Yu Miaomiao was still awake, suggested.
"Walk."
Yu Miaomiao took Lu An and flashed into the space, while Sesame Paste continued to lie next to K, both alert and resting.
" Anan, have you contacted Chu Bai?" Speaking softly and cautiously in the space was one of the reasons Yu Miaomiao brought Lu An into the space.
"No, the signal seems to be bad. They've been experiencing a signal loss over there, but I've already edited a message and sent it. If he sees it, he should reply to us."
"Well, don't worry too much. I think we should speed things up tomorrow..."
"How can it be so fast? We can't fly there..."
"Why can't we fly there? It's not like we don't have them."
There are several airplanes parked in Yu Miaomiao's space warehouse. "Why are we so frugal? We stockpiled goods in the first place so we could use them."
Anyway, now everyone in the team is used to her taking anything out of her spatial storage.
"I feel tired of hiding things, I want to come clean." Yu Miaomiao finished a glass of wheat juice, let out a long sigh, and felt extremely refreshed.
"Revealing that you're a reincarnated person? That's not appropriate, is it?" Lu An asked with concern.
"What are you thinking? No one would believe me if I said that. I'm going to come clean that I'm a rich woman."
Yu Miaomiao, slightly tipsy, with a sly smile on his lips, said, "I'm going to tell them that our team is actually a very wealthy team."
"That works too. From what I've observed, everyone in our team seems to be a good person. If anyone dares to covet our supplies, I'll eliminate them." Lu An thought it over carefully and decided the risk wasn't too great, so he didn't try to dissuade him.
"No, I'm not afraid of having our supplies coveted. In fact, haven't we been targeted enough already? I just feel that it's pointless to keep our supplies hidden away and then not be able to use them when it matters."
