Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 1258
... Bohemia has never seen so much of herself in her life.

Surrounded by hills of photo albums, flipping through the photos one by one, the afternoon passed quickly.She sat cross-legged on the floor of the living room, the photo album in her hand was brightly reflected by the sunlight outside the window at first, and the people in the photos could hardly be seen clearly.Later, the reflection weakened, and the image gradually became clearer; until the faces of the people gradually darkened into the shadows, the setting sun finally hit the horizon heavily, and everything was covered with a cool dark blue veil.

I'm afraid Lin Sanjiu won't be able to wait for clear water for a while...

Bohemia put the album aside and rubbed her eyes.This copy probably took her a lot of time. She and Yuan Xiangxi looked at the photos all afternoon, and there was nothing weird in the house anymore.As Yuan Xiangxi said, a large number of her photos run through every album. There are group photos, solo photos, and snapshots. She is the one with the largest number of photos among all family members.

After looking at at least hundreds of her own faces in one go, Bohemia was almost out of breath.It seems that she has really lived this kind of life without knowing it: in the photo, she is especially easy to laugh, with long hair flying in the bright sun; her skin is tanned to a shiny wheat color, He raised his head and opened his mouth to grab a red apple hanging from a branch.

... Is life before the end so carefree?Bohemia took another look at the photo of herself holding an apple - in this photo, she was being held high in Yuan Xiangxi's arms, with her legs sitting in his arms; Crescent Moon, Yuan Xiangxi looked up at her, as if her arms were a star that she had accidentally caught by herself.

This is of course not surprising.

In more than half of the photos, there is Yuan Xiangxi next to her - the number of photos of the latter is only a hundred or so fewer than hers. After an afternoon, Bohemia is also very familiar with his appearance. familiar.If he looks a bit ghostly and pale in person, the photo shows him in his original form: flushed and moist, after several drinks over the holidays. His eyes are brighter than the starry sky; he has tried several hairstyles in the past few years, and none of them suit him. It always makes his bones thin and smooth, like a fairy who has just fallen.

"I said, Bao'er's photo is gone, maybe it's not that she died."

Bohemia conveniently put the photo into her pocket, but still said mercilessly: "You ghost has a very dark mind, haven't you noticed? We didn't take many pictures of children in the first place."

Indeed, compared with this happy couple, their children seem to be only appendages.

As Bo'er got bigger and bigger, there were fewer and fewer photos of her—it should be "her", Bohemia is still a little unsure about the gender of this child, because Bo'er always keeps a straight face Zhang Tuan has a round face and has the same hairstyle as her father. It is impossible to tell whether she is wearing a skirt or wide shorts.When the five-year-old Bao'er occasionally appeared in the photos, he was always riding on Yuan Xiangxi's shoulders with his arms around his neck; after the age of six, Bao'er's photos disappeared completely.

The second child was a boy, presumably because being the second child was not so new to the parents, and there was not even a name written on the back of the photo; the third child was a daughter again, and when she was a toddler, All family photo records are interrupted.

"Do you think that after having the second or third child, we don't bother to take pictures of the children anymore? We just take pictures of ourselves...?" Yuan Xiangxi put down the stack of Bao'er's photos in his hand, and stood up Go to the light switch and say, "No way? I always feel like I'd be a more loving dad."

"You are not anyone's father," Bohemia barked at him and stood up.In the evening, the temperature cooled down quickly, and the bushes and wheat field outside the window were darkly connected into a deep black shadow; she walked behind Yuan Xiangxi and watched him click the switch several times in a row , the living room was still lifeless and immersed in darkness.

"Maybe the wire is broken," he turned his head and ordered, "You wait in the house, I'll go to the back to see if the backup generator can be used."

"Then let's go catch some fish? Let's make dinner together, shall we?"

Yuan Xiangxi glanced at her, one foot stopped in mid-air, as if she was a ghost: "The ones caught in the dungeon are probably dungeon creatures...you want to eat them too?"

Bohemia rubbed the space between her brows a few times, lowered her head and took a breath.When she raised her head again, she put on a fierce look again: "Hurry up and check the engine!"

As soon as the door closed behind Yuan Xiangxi, she thumped up to the second floor.There was no electric light, and she still had light fish; sitting in the swimming light, she opened the diary again.

I am pregnant
These four characters floated naked in the center of the page, with blank spaces above and blank below.After turning over several pages, there was nothing but blank paper; when Bohemia was wondering, she suddenly said "ah": "...So you skipped several pages."

"How could it be so sudden?"

The first paragraph after pregnancy is also only a few lines. If the date is not different for each paragraph, it really looks like a small paragraph in the whole diary. "I really didn't expect it at all... I feel like I'm still a child, can I raise another child? Or should I kill it??"

"Sure enough, it is impossible not to have this child.... A part of his blood is slowly growing in my stomach at this moment. Now he is circling around me almost all the time, even if I take a breath, I am afraid that I will choke .”

"Today my chest is swollen and uncomfortable, and I feel uncomfortable when I walk. I have started to feel sick recently. I feel sick when I smell anything or do anything... Even when he leaned over and kissed the little mole on my neck today, I was shocked. When he touched his throat, he retched. The look on his face at that time was so aggrieved, it hurts even thinking about it now..."

Are these two not tired?Bohemia touched her neck uncomfortably.

Perhaps because of the poor state of the first pregnancy, the hostess's handwriting gradually became messy and scribbled, and sometimes she just dealt with it with a few hurried sentences; sometimes she didn't write anything for two weeks in a row.In the written content, physical condition, physiological reactions, and pregnancy matters accounted for more than 90.00% of the space. For the rest, I never forgot to mention a few words: "He is so good-looking, the child is just like him", "Although it is uncomfortable , but I really want to give birth to his child" and so on, Bohemia's face was a little hot.

During the few days after Bao’er was born, the diary was empty again—this is normal, which mother would have the strength and thought to write a diary at this time?
Bohemia looked up at the clock on the wall.Yuan Xiangxi had been gone for about ten minutes, and she could vaguely hear the muffled sound of the generator behind the house; in order to avoid that she hadn't finished reading it when he came back, she quickly scanned all the content after Bao'er was born. Read it again—the content is not much, most of it is her feelings as a new mother and her deep love for her newborn daughter; the other half is still recording the relationship between her and her husband.

"I stumbled over a few words today,"

One of the paragraphs is rare to start like this. Not only the handwriting is deeply and forcefully engraved on the paper, but the content is also a bit vulgar: "I am so unhappy now, I actually don't want to leave him for a moment, but since Bao'er was born , Mom only saw her once when she came to see me...how can she not go home to see grandma????????????? Mom just looks at the photos we sent back, she will feel that it is not enough. It's not my fault that he couldn't leave during this time!"

Bohemia looked and saw that it was written in June 1975.

She took another look at the string of "?????????????"—the dots under each question mark were heavily stuck on the paper, and several dots even scratched the paper.

In the next week or two, the matter of returning to her natal family was never mentioned again. Perhaps the couple reached a conclusion after discussing it, and the content returned to sweet happiness and daily chores.When Bao'er was one and a half years old, the diary was also used to the last page.

The last paragraph is like this: "This notebook is used up! I can't imagine that two years have passed so soon, I am really emotional! When I have the next child, I will continue to keep a diary!"

...are there any other diaries here?

Bohemia turned over the last page, gently touched the bulge of the handwriting protruding from the back of the page with her fingers, a bit like saying goodbye to an old friend, but she was a little bit disappointed.

She put the diary back into the deep drawer, and when she was looking for other diaries, she even tidied up the mess she had made, but she never found the second diary; Most of the furniture in the bedroom was dimly reflected, half-light and half-dark.She glanced, outside the half-open bedroom door, the corridor was dark and quiet.

"Yuan Xiangxi?"

When Bohemia walked down the stairs, the light fish also swam up with a flick of its tail, cruising back and forth above the head, reflecting the light and shadows in the surroundings, as if every step of the stairs had life.When she walked to the door of the living room on the first floor, she vaguely saw a figure sitting on the sofa from the darkness inside; hearing her footsteps, the figure slowly turned its head towards her in the darkness.

...the head seems too big for the shoulders.

"...Why did it take you so long to get a generator? Is it still out of power?"

The guy walked silently, no wonder she didn't hear him coming home—Bohemia went down the stairs, and then suddenly felt something was wrong: judging from the size of the figure compared with the head to body, it couldn't be an adult.

"Bao, Bao'er?"

Her voice couldn't help but shrill; Guangyu followed her intention and swam into the living room in a flash, illuminating the empty beige sofa, even the texture of the fabric and the occasional stain were clearly reflected .

Bohemia turned around suddenly, and quickly looked at the dark corner that was not illuminated by the light fish. She was almost sure that the little black figure was standing outside the light—turning around quickly, her goosebumps The lump gradually flattened down.

No one, no one in the living room except her.

The door was pushed open, and the door hinge creaked, causing her to jump up in shock.

"Bohemia?" Yuan Xiangxi called out, "I found a piece of paper under the generator, it seems to be left by a previous evolutionary, come and have a look... Hey, what's wrong with you?"

Bohemia herself didn't know what happened—before she could react, she had already sprinted out and jumped into his arms.

　I haven't said thank you for many days. I saw Bohemia's boss Xiang rewarded two hundred. Is it for Bohemia's marriage?And Oproyalxy (Long time no see!
