I pick up trash at the end of the day

"Turn up the communication recording."

The communications soldier went to the console to switch the communications system, and then called up a brief audio. After a burst of noisy electric current, the voice of 1029 sounded in the combat room.

"Command center, this is 1029. The unknown group suspected of being a rebel army has been wiped out. The mission is completed and we will return to the High Wall Fortress immediately. Repeat, this is 1029..."

"Can you confirm the location of the message?" Yuan Ning asked hastily.

"can."

The communicator called up the map, and in the upper right corner of the map, a red light spot was constantly flashing.

"The location where the signal was sent is in the Almanac Mountains area, which is exactly the same as the location where the unknown signal was intercepted before."

Yuan Ning couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the news, but also a little surprised.

The combat vehicle was obviously destroyed, and the personnel sent to go with it had already been killed by zombies. Why was 1029 able to complete the mission unscathed, and how did he appear in the Almanek Mountains in such a short time?

Yuan Ning wanted to ask too many things, but the top priority was to bring 1029 back as soon as possible. Without the monitoring and assistance of medical soldiers, she was worried that something else would happen to 1029.

Unlike Yuan Ning, everyone's reaction was more of surprise, and they also felt deep fear of this sentinel. 1029 is a high-walled fortress that arrived with the general. No one knows his details. They only think that he is the general's personal bodyguard or a favorite talent. But now combining the general's trust and Yuan Ning's actions, 1029 is by no means a Simple sentry.

"Hehehe, as expected of 1029," Aaron's voice interrupted everyone's thinking. He drank his coffee and kept his eyes on the beating arc when the audio was playing. If it is true, or maybe the person who sent this message is not 1029 himself. I would like to ask everyone here if there is any effective way to prove that this is not a trap?"

When the word 'trap' was mentioned, Aaron looked at Yuan Ning and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.Yuan Ning clenched her fists tightly, wishing she could rush forward and tear off his sanctimonious and hypocritical mask.

"I don't think there is a need to be suspicious," Yuan Ning said, "If the person who sent the message wasn't 1029, why would the other party need to do anything extra? It doesn't make sense to provoke or set a trap, and we can't come to the door unsuspecting. It's a catch for them, so I don't think there's any need to prove it."

"Hehe, what Dr. Yuan said is very reasonable. It seems that I was worrying too much." Aaron smiled humbly, but the humility was disgusting, "In this case, let's bring the hero back as soon as possible. There are still many questions that need to be checked with this brave and skilled sentry, time is precious, I am right, General."

The general ignored Dr. Aaron, but turned to look at the communication soldier just now: "Your name and number."

The communications soldier blinked his eyes at the general, and then gave a military salute flattered: "Report to the general! The communications junior is flying south, number 145551."

The general stretched his neck, and gave an order: "Send the order, and immediately send the combat team and medical soldiers to the Almanek Mountains. The goal is to take 1029 back to the high wall fortress and ensure its safety. The junior soldier Nanfei is responsible for communication and contact." , the heads of the rest of the departments act according to the requirements of the deployment just now, and implement it immediately without any mistakes."

Everyone took orders and left the war room one after another. The general and the chief of staff also left one after another. Yuan Ning and Aaron were the only ones left in the slightly crowded war room.

Yuan Ning sighed softly. She untied the rubber band, combed her hair and then tied the ponytail again. Suddenly, there was a gentle but rhythmic applause in the combat room.

"It's really hard for Dr. Yuan. Fortunately, there is no danger, otherwise I will inevitably feel a little uncomfortable."

"What exactly do you mean?"

Yuan Ning looked at Aaron, and the anger in her heart was still hard to calm down: "You deliberately gave me a fake transfer order card, and waited for me to report to the higher authorities so that I was arrested, but you pretended to be righteous in front of everyone. What's on your mind?"

Dr. Aaron covered his mouth and smiled, his shoulders were twitching up and down uncontrollably, his eyes were covered by his disheveled hair, but the glimmer of light reflected from the lens between the hairs really looked like a perverted lunatic.

"Why can't I understand Dr. Yuan's words? I only know that I want to help Dr. Yuan get rid of the stigma. Maybe it's because I'm not good at words. Some things have caused Dr. Yuan to have a lot of misunderstandings."

Yuan Ning was extremely tired of Aaron's pretentious appearance, and said bluntly: "I always thought you were just a lunatic who focused on research, but I didn't expect... I really underestimated you, Dr. Aaron."

"Hahaha, me too, Dr. Yuan Ning."

Aaron walked to Yuan Ning's side, he reached out and pressed Yuan Ning's wrist, and then took out a small recording pen from her pocket with the other hand.

"You can hide this thing in your pocket with the help of manipulating the holographic screen. Hehe, you are really smart, but it's a pity that you are still too simple, otherwise you wouldn't even be able to recognize such a simple scam."

The recording pen was dexterously turned at Aaron's fingertips, and then it was broken into two sections under Yuan Ning's gaze, and then thrown into the trash can beside it.

"Yuan Ning, as a scientific researcher, it is naturally his job to focus on scientific research. In addition, if you do not have enough precautions, I am afraid that the hard-earned research results will eventually fall into the hands of others. I think that after this After what happened, you should be able to learn a little lesson."

Aaron lightly supported the frame, turned around and walked leisurely outside the combat room: "However, before that, please let Dr. Yuan enjoy the leisure time without work, ha ha, ha ha ha..."

1029 is standing next to the communicator, and the host computer on one side is running the software that shreds the data in the USB flash drive, and the progress bar has reached 80.00%.

"1029, 1029, this is the High Wall Fortress. The message has been received, and the team will be sent to the Almanek Mountains immediately. Please stand by and keep the communication open."

"Yes, 1029 received."

After 1029 replied to the communication, he left the central control room and went outside the laboratory.

The open space outside the laboratory is full of corpses of zombies with different heads. Along the collapsed wall, there is devastation at a glance. The strong rotten stench can suffocate people to death, but even so, there is a figure standing in front of them. The pile of corpses is constantly busy.

"What are you doing?"

"Fuck! You're scary."

Yu Ge clutched his chest, looked at 1029 and took a deep breath: "Those who don't know think the zombies are coming."

Yu Ge dug out a human corpse from the pile of zombies and dragged it to an open space, then knelt on the ground and searched from top to bottom, from inside to outside.

"What are you doing?" 1029 asked again.

"You can't see for yourself."

Yu Ge rolled his eyes at him, and said, "What else can I do around the dead body? Could it be giving them first aid and artificial respiration?"

1029 watched as Yu Ge finished searching the man's corpse, and then rearranged his clothes evenly, with his hands on his sides and his legs together, neatly arranged like all the human corpses around him neat.

Then, I saw Yu Ge knock on the metal gasoline barrel beside him, open the lid, and push the heavy gasoline barrel by himself for a long time, only moving a few centimeters.

"Huh, huh, have you seen enough? If you've seen enough, come over and help."

1029 walked to Yu Ge's side, he grabbed the edge of the gasoline can and pushed it with one hand, the gasoline can immediately fell to the ground, and the strong smell of gasoline quickly permeated the air.

"Okay, okay, save it, how can we go back after it's all gone for a while?"

Under Yu Ge's guidance, 1029 picked up the petrol can and pushed it away from the open space: "Are you going to burn them?"

Yu Ge took out the lighter, glanced at 1029 and squatted down: "Stay away, I won't be able to save you if you get burnt in a while."

As he said that, Yu Ge ignited the gasoline scattered on the ground, and the tongues of flames flickered instantly. The raging fire immediately lit up the dark open space, and the fierce flames engulfed all the corpses in an instant.

Thick smoke was billowing, and the fire was burning, and the bright fire light shone on Yu Ge's side face, but he looked a bit depressed.

They are also human beings, ordinary people of flesh and blood, they must have lived in this last days talking, laughing, crying and making noise.Even if there is a lot of evil, even if the hands are covered with the blood of innocent people, Yu Ge still feels that they must have been kind, and he will call his comrades brothers and sisters, drink and eat meat together.

Yu Ge could tell from their behavior that they were not robbers from the beginning, they were very likely to be bandits, and gradually chose to degenerate, otherwise the village chief and the others would not have been so oppressed in the past few years .

However, Yu Ge doesn't know why they became like this. I just hope that the fire in front of me can burn away the crimes they have committed...

"It's born from the same root, why bother..."

"what are you saying?"

Yu Ge shook his head, pushed the gasoline can to a row of parked cars: "Did you just get in touch with the High Wall Fortress?"

"Well," 1029 said, "They will send people over, and they are expected to be here before tomorrow night."

"Ah? You mean people from the military camp will come?"

"I know what you're worried about."

1029 helped Yu Ge stabilize the gasoline barrel, watched him take an empty gasoline bottle from the car, and then helped him fill it up.

"They're here to pick me up, so they won't send sentries, and they won't detour to disturb the people in the village."

"That is to say," Yu Ge tightened the bottle cap, stood up and looked at 1029, "you won't go back to the village with me."

"Well, I'm not going, I'm going to stand by here," 1029 looked at the car beside him, reached out and patted the car frame, "You, do you know the way back?"

"Nonsense, don't forget that I brought you here, of course I know how to go back."

Yu Ge put the can of gasoline into the trunk, then opened the door and sat in the driver's seat, rolled down the window: "Are you sure you don't want to say hello to the villagers? The village chief is waiting for us to roast a whole lamb. "

"No, you know... I can't stand the smell."

1029 slowly pushed away, silently watching Yu Ge start the car: "You, will you return the same way?"

"En," Yu Ge nodded lightly, "Otherwise, if I get lost, I'll be in trouble."

"Then you... let's go, I will abide by our agreement."

Yu Ge responded sullenly, he didn't care much about the agreement or not, as long as 1029 said so, he would believe it, but he always felt a sense of emptiness and loss in his heart, and he didn't know it was because he was lonely for a long time and didn't want to be adrift again , or in just two days, I got used to having a big piece of emotionless wood around me.

Either way, Yu Ge felt extremely uncomfortable.

"Are you okay here alone?"

The corners of 1029's eyes drooped slightly. He knew that Yu Ge would leave sooner or later, and they would return to two parallel lines sooner or later. But for the first time, he felt a trace of panic, feeling helpless. He couldn't figure out why he suddenly became like this. This is not him, nor like him, but once this feeling arises, he can no longer suppress it.

"I can do it alone, you better hurry up..."

Suddenly, 1029 saw Yu Ge sigh, then he turned off the engine, opened the door and got out of the car.

"You, you are..."

"Why? I've been busy day and night for two days, can't I have a good rest and a good night's sleep?"

"No, I didn't mean that." 1029 hurriedly said.

Yu Ge looked at 1029's inexplicably glowing eyes and couldn't help clearing his throat: "Don't get me wrong, I just don't want to drive tired, and I'll leave as soon as I wake up tomorrow morning."

"Well, I know."

"Okay, then I'll go find a room to sleep in first, oh, yes, I almost forgot something..."

Yu Ge turned around, stared at 1029 and confirmed: "Your tasks are all completed, as for the things in the laboratory..."

"My tasks are all done, as for what's inside," 1029 leaned sideways to avoid Yu Ge's gaze, "I don't know."

"Haha, interesting enough."

Yu Ge smiled, and gave 1029 a hard hammer on the shoulder: "It's no wonder I consider you a friend."

friend……

1029 touched the place Yu Ge hammered just now, and suddenly felt that his heartbeat was a little out of control.

"are we friends?"

"Necessary," Yu Ge smiled happily, "But after tomorrow, we have to be strangers who don't know each other."

1029 followed suit with a smile: "Okay, let's be friends for this evening."

Update, sorry for being late again today...(T▽T)
