Wear it quickly, it's better to live a miserable life than to die

The dust was flying all over the place and almost buried Ding Yi who was passing by. He pedaled desperately, and the wheels were spinning so fast that smoke was coming out, and he barely escaped the disaster.

Ding Yi's heart was beating fast.

In a ruin, Ding Yi's old bicycle was replaced with a gasoline truck, which still had ignition. The bicycle was moved up, and Ding Yi climbed into the driver's seat and drove while standing.

Still in the same place, Ding Yi found several barrels of rare gasoline. He loaded them all into the car and drove away.

A pair of furry paws slowly stretched out from the ruins, and when they heard the sound of the car going away, they were powerless to put them down.

He drove along the rugged road with one foot on the accelerator and the other on the brake, and all he saw was desolation. At a certain moment, a ridiculous thought popped into Ding Yi's mind: Is this the place where the world would exile him?

Desolate, desolate, lonely, bleak, barren, dead silent...

An indescribable feeling.

Ding Yi felt that she was about to become depressed. She was a human being, but she did not live in a place with humans, and she did not even have anyone to talk to.

Thirty-five days after leaving home, Ding Yi has walked a long way. There is no smell of irritating radiation in the air of this place. Ding Yi's heart is pounding. He takes off his protective suit, cheers himself up, and finds a running figure in front of him.

I increased my speed to catch up and found a running umbrella-shaped mushroom. When I got closer, I found that it was a mushroom man with a slender body and a big, flat head. From a distance, he looked no different from a mushroom.

Although it looked a bit strange, Ding Yi was still very happy.

Everyone looks weird, so don't laugh at anyone else. Maybe people in this world just look weird.

"Are you tired? I'll give you a ride. Where are you going?"

The mushroom man was startled when he heard the horn. A hint of fear appeared in his pure eyes. He looked up and saw the oversized Ding Yi.

"Ah! Do you look like this too?" It can be seen that although the appearance has changed, the child's curiosity has not changed.

Ding Yi warmly invited him to get in the car, and the little boy introduced himself as Pangpang.

"My mom said that I was fat when I was born, so I was called Chubby. What's your name?"

Pang Pang's clear and crisp voice had a hint of hoarseness, like the sound of fluffing cotton.

"My name is Xin. My mom never told me anything about my birth, so I don't know what it means. How old are you?"

"Ten years old." Hearing Ding Yi's name, Pang Pang tilted his mushroom head and thought for a while, "I think I know why you are called Xin. Dad said that many children born after the nuclear explosion were named Xinsheng and Xiwang. I was lucky. I was born a year before the nuclear explosion."

Ten years old, the year before, nuclear explosion, nine years.

Ding Yi extracted some useful information.

Fatty jumped up and down in the car, touching here and looking there, "Your car is so strange, it doesn't look like what dad said, it looks more like the very old car that grandpa said. Only collectors from some old families would have it. Xin, is your family special?"

"I'm eight years old. What car is your father talking about?" Ding Yi asked while driving. She was curious and thought that maybe she could piece together some truth.

"The maglev car. My dad said that it's amazing. It saves fuel and electricity and is super fast. Unfortunately, I don't have any effect on it. After the nuclear explosion, all those cars were destroyed and couldn't be on the road. The cars that can be on the road now are all left by those big families and big forces. Although they are a bit slow, they are better than relying on people to walk."

Fatty leaned against the window, watching the passing scene outside, his tone full of regret. Looking around, the sky was filled with yellow sand, smoke and dust were rolling, and there was no trace of life on the vast plain.

Without being obsessed with his own problems, Pangpang's eyes were filled with melancholy.

Ten years old, a young boy with many worries.

Ding Yi wanted to go to a place where people lived. This world almost drove her crazy.

"Where do you live? Can I come and see?"

"Hope Base, keep going straight ahead and you'll see a wall. That's the wall of Hope Base."

"Then you are quite amazing." Ding Yi praised insincerely. The distance was not close, and there was an endless plain, so she did not see any shadow of the city wall.

Pangpang lowered his head in shame, almost unable to raise it, and held the car window with both hands, his veins bulging, as if he was about to go berserk at the next moment.

His face was distorted and looked hideous.

Ding Yi didn't dare to provoke him anymore and had to drive quietly.

Is it because of my bad temper, or is there some other reason?

I want to get more information from Pangpang and understand this world that is completely in the dark.

"I can run better," Fatty leaned his head against the car door to support his weight, with a suppressed anger in his tone, "Xin, when you arrive at the base, when filling out your information, you'd better report nine years old, nine years old, understand?"

There was a flash of worry in Pangpang's eyes.

"why?"

"I heard from my father that there was a nuclear explosion in the world nine years ago, and since then, there has been no pregnancy."

"Then I must have remembered it wrongly. I am more than eight years old. I mean, I have eight years of memory."

"Then you are older than me. My mother said that children don't have memories before the age of three."

"probably."

Ding Yi suddenly understood why the new mother left her child alone in such a place. There was not even a ruined building within a hundred miles.

It took her a long time to get out of that place.

What kind of danger would make a mother so cruelly leave a newborn baby there, to be kept alive only by nutrient solution and a robot nanny?

Experiment?

Ding Yi stared ahead. When a familiar strong wind blew, he turned the steering wheel sharply and drifted perfectly to avoid it.

Pangpang grabbed the car window and screamed, "Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!"

A series of "wow~" erupted, and Pang Pang's pupils dilated, looking at Ding Yi in surprise, "How did you do it? That was the Death Storm Group, it came and went without a trace, and all I heard was a sound, and the things in front of them were destroyed."

Pangpang looked at the deep furrows plowed on the side and looked at Ding Yi with admiration.

"Sister, you are my real sister. Real sister, do you know magic? Can you teach me?"

Ding Yi patiently replied: "It can't be taught. Others can't learn innate abilities."

What are you thinking about? Can exclusive secrets be taught?

Pangpang hung his head, his thin neck almost unable to support himself. Ding Yi was so tired for him that he forgot that his head was bigger than his.

"I say, don't be angry when you hear this. Don't you feel a little uncomfortable with the way you look? It's just a little weird."

Fatty retorted, "It's not strange. I hope the base is plowed. Everyone has their own way of growing, and no one is laughing at anyone else."

He curled his lips, turned his head, folded his hands, and showed disdain.

Ding Yi didn't ask any more questions and drove quietly for two hours before he saw the shadow of the city wall.

Damn kid, he’s quite good at running.

"Just ahead, the Hope Base is right ahead."

Fatty stuck his head out of the window and shouted excitedly, "Haha, Hope Base, I, Fatty, am not here again."
