In the darkness, the two of them were silent for a while. Qin Zhong felt that his previous words seemed a bit heavy, so he slowed down his tone and said, "Xiaoying, I'm not saying we won't go to the Hang Lung Building. It's just that we must go back to the mall now to restock our crossbows and steel balls. We need to bring all our supplies and be fully prepared before going. Otherwise, if we encounter risks similar to the aquarium again, we will surely die."

"Yes, Brother Qin, I understand!"

Xiao Yingyong raised her head, with two obvious tear marks on her face. Qin Zhong felt a little sorry for her. He reached out and wiped her tears away, saying with a wry smile, "Why? You started crying after I said a few words to you? You really are a child who hasn't grown up yet."

"Not at all!"

Xiao Yingyong's mouth drooped, his face slightly red as he said, "I just, I just miss my mom..."

Patting Xiao Yingyong's head, Qin Zhong struggled to get up and changed the subject, "Let's see if there's anything else to eat. We need to eat something. It should be daylight outside. I'll go to Monkey Mountain to find something, then go back to the mall, rest for a few days, and then go to Hang Lung Building."

"Ok!"

Xiao Yingyong agreed, turned around and took out a few bags of vacuum-packed cooked beef from his backpack. The two of them tore open the packages and started to eat a big meal to replenish their empty bodies.

"By the way, Brother Qin, when you were asleep, there seemed to be a ringing sound on your chest. Was that the ringing of your cell phone?"

At this moment, Xiao Yingyong suddenly remembered something and asked Qin Zhong curiously.

"Uh!"

After hearing what Xiao Yingyong said, Qin Zhong remembered that last night in the water, the cell phone he hid in his chest suddenly rang, almost sending the two of them into the crocodile's mouth. He couldn't help but smile bitterly.

He had escaped death last night. As soon as he entered the room and made sure it was safe, he almost fainted instantly and even forgot to return the phone call.

It seems that Sun Xiaoyan really has something urgent to talk to him about, otherwise she wouldn't call him again and again. Thinking of this, Qin Zhong hesitated, glanced at Xiao Yingyong, and said in a serious tone: "Xiaoying, can I trust you?"

"???"

Qin Zhong's serious tone made Xiao Yingyong feel a little overwhelmed. After a while, she became more serious and nodded, "Okay!"

"it is good!"

Qin Zhong smiled with relief and took out a mobile phone from his chest pocket. It was his own phone. At this moment, the screen of the phone was black, as if it was turned off.

Xiao Yingyong leaned over to take a look and asked in confusion, "Brother Qin, was that the one that made the noise before? Wasn't it turned off?"

"No, what you saw was just an illusion!"

Qin Zhong shook his head and then pressed the power button. The phone turned on quickly and entered the phone interface. On the interface was a photo of a family of three. In the front were two elderly people, a man and a woman. Qin Zhong was standing behind the elderly people with a bright smile on his face.

Seeing this photo, Qin Zhong felt a slight pain in his heart. These were his parents. On the day of the disaster, he called home. Although the call was connected, no one answered. Later, the telephone network malfunctioned and he could no longer get through.

It was also at that time that Qin Zhong had already vaguely guessed in his heart that his parents should have died or turned into those man-eating monsters.

But what can one do in the end times? Qin Zhong could only bury this pain deep in his heart.

……

"Brother Qin, how come your phone still has power? I haven't seen you charge it these days!"

Xiao Yingyong's question brought Qin Zhong's scattered thoughts back to normal. He calmed himself down and said with a smile, "Xiaoying, you and I have been through life and death together. Let me tell you one of my biggest secrets. This phone is no longer just a phone. It can connect to the real world during thunderstorms, and it automatically stores electricity while connecting to time and space..."

"Ever since the day this phone connected to the real world, even though I've never charged it, it's always had power, like an infinite battery..."

"what!"

Hearing Qin Zhong's words, Xiao Yingyong couldn't help but show a look of surprise and disbelief on his face.

Qin Zhong smiled slightly and said, "You were curious about how I got so many supplies before. Actually, I didn't get them. I connected to the real world, and someone over there sent them to me via my phone."

"Uh!"

Qin Zhong's series of shocking words completely shocked Xiao Yingyong, making her hard to believe her ears. After all, it sounded a bit far-fetched, as if she had heard something out of the Arabian Nights.

Seeing the shock on her face, Qin Zhong smiled slightly. Not to mention her, even Qin Zhong himself still couldn't believe it when he thought about it. He felt as if all this was a dream.

But Sun Xiaoyan is real, traveling through time and space is real, the ability of mobile phones to transmit objects is real, and the unlimited power of mobile phone batteries is even more real.

Perhaps, all of this cannot be explained by science at all. After all, since the end of the world began on the disaster day, everything here seems particularly sci-fi, and many things can no longer be understood by common sense.

"Jingle Bell!"

Just as Qin Zhong was thinking about how to explain, the phone rang again, and the screen flashed "Unknown caller."

Seeing the phone screen light up and ringtone, Xiao Yingyong's eyes widened slightly, pointing at the phone and said, "Can the call really be connected?"

Qin Zhong didn't say much, just clicked on the hands-free mode and said, "Xiao Yan, is that you?"

In the real world, Sun Xiaoyan heard the rough voice coming from the phone, breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly relaxed a little in his heart. Fortunately, the call was finally connected!

She had called five or six times before, but none of the calls went through. This made Sun Xiaoyan very worried. She was very worried that Qin Zhong might be in trouble, or...

Although that dangerous thought appeared in Sun Xiaoyan's mind more than once, she always tried to kill it quickly.

Now, Qin Zhong's call was finally connected. Hearing his voice again made Sun Xiaoyan's heart, which had been hanging in the balance, finally settle down.

Sun Xiaoyan: "It's me, Qin Zhong. Why did you answer the phone just now? Did anything happen to you?"

Hearing Sun Xiaoyan's caring words, Qin Zhong couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Not only did I encounter trouble, I almost died several times..."

"what!"

Sun Xiaoyan couldn't help but cover her mouth, a look of concern on her face, and asked, "What happened to you?"

"It's hard to describe in words!"

Qin Zhong sighed, not wanting to recall what happened last night. He quickly changed the subject and asked, "Xiao Yan, why are you looking for me so urgently? Is there something wrong?"

"Ok!"

Sun Xiaoyan noticed that he didn't seem to want to talk about last night's experience, so she didn't ask any more questions. "I've already been to the Magic City and the Safari Park. I put my ring under a rock to the left of the Monkey Mountain entrance. You can go see if you can find it."

"Oh, where did you put your ring? Well, I'm at the zoo now too. I'm going to go look for it today!"

Qin Zhong raised his eyebrows. Just as he thought, Sun Xiaoyan was indeed a man of action. She had taken the first step so quickly. However, he did not expect that Sun Xiaoyan was willing to give her ring as a token of love.
