Crane's Ark of Tomorrow Daily

The first to come back was Dalia's husband, Sheriff Roban.
With the sound of turning the key at the door, a burly Ursus man walked in. His short brown hair had already appeared a lot of gray, obviously he was not young anymore.Sheriff Roban stood at the door and stretched his muscles, sighed, and then shouted loudly, "Honey, I'm back."
"Dinner is on the table, Roban, Zoya should be back soon, you can eat it while it's hot as soon as you prepare it." Mrs. Dahlia responded in the kitchen, "By the way, there are guests at home. , you pay attention to your behavior."
"Are there any guests?" Roban asked suspiciously as he took off his police uniform and hung it on the hanger.
After he took two steps forward, he saw Li Ke sitting in the living room.
Li Ke stood up and greeted him with a smile, "Hello, Mr. Luoban."
"You are..." Luo Ban frowned, and looked at Li Ke's whole body with scrutiny, as if to find some flaws, when he saw the shining halo on Li Ke's head , Roban's brows stretched out again.
"He, he is a traveler who just came to our city. Because I really can't find a place to live, I feel so pitiful, so let him stay at our house for a few days." At this time, Mrs. Dahlia The last dish was also prepared, and she walked out of the kitchen with a pot of roasted meat overflowing with aroma.
"Didn't Zoya always want to go outside to play? We haven't had a chance to take her out for the time being, and it would be nice to let her listen to the stories outside." Mrs. Dahlia said.
Families like theirs have very limited time available every year, especially the pillar of the family. Sergeant Luoban works in the police station, and the annual overtime work is endless. The family wants to go out to play. It has been postponed several times, and Zoya has been angry with them several times for this.
"That's it... the Sakota people can be trusted." Sergeant Loban thought for a while, then nodded slowly, and then smiled at Li Ke, "Then I will trouble you. "
The natural affinity of the Sakota people played a role. Even Sergeant Loban, who would not easily trust others, easily relaxed his vigilance towards Li Ke.
The expression on Roban's face softened, and he said, "Zoya should be back soon, please wait for a while."
He walked to the refrigerator, took out two bottles of wine from the refrigerator, shook Li Ke and said, "Would you like some?"
"No, thank you. I don't drink." Li Ke politely refused.
"What a pity..." Roban sat down at the dining table with two bottles of wine, and said regretfully, "Your Rutland has so many rules."
As he said that, he raised the wine bottle and took a big gulp, "However, I'm a little curious, since you are a traveler, why did you come to Chernobog, a place where no shit? Nothing to look at."
Li Ke said casually, "Actually, it's nothing. I don't have any particular destination, just walking around. I was staying at Longmen some time ago, and I just heard that Chernobog came near the Longmen. Just ready to come and have a look."
"Ha, I'm afraid this will disappoint you. Apart from those factories, there is probably nothing special about Chernoborg."
While the two were chatting, Mrs. Dahlia suddenly interjected, "Actually, you shouldn't have come to Chernobog at this time. Recently... here is a bit unstable."
"Oh? How do you say that?" Li Ke raised his eyebrows and asked with interest.
The news that the integration movement is going to attack here should be kept strictly confidential. Could it be that this family knew something in advance?Loban works in the police station, so maybe he heard some rumors.
"I heard from the owner of the tobacco shop that fewer and fewer aristocrats have come to buy wine recently. Aunt Nina, who works in Lord Santanley's house, has also returned home, saying that the Lord's family does not need anyone to work for the time being... the nobles live in There are also a lot fewer people in that area." Mrs. Dalia said with a mysterious face.
"Perhaps something important is about to happen. Maybe the aristocrat knew the news in advance, so he escaped in advance."
When Loban heard this, he immediately became a little unhappy, and said with an unhappy face, "Don't talk nonsense, what can happen in Chernobog? I'm here, I'm a policeman, I will always protect Yours, right?"
"Yes, yes, you are the greatest." Mrs. Dahlia responded with a smile. She just said this casually just now, and she didn't seem to take it seriously.
"Don't guess, Mayor Boris is a new-style aristocrat. Those old-schoolers can't beat Mayor Boris, so they can only get out of here in despair. What's so strange." Loban said casually, "And, with us The military and police are protecting Chernobog, and the Third Army is also stationed around the city, so there is nothing to be afraid of."
Li Ke maintained the smile on his face, watching the scene of the two showing their affection, he felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.
Unexpectedly, Roban didn't get any news. Instead, Mrs. Dahlia, a housewife, noticed the subtle ailments in the city of Chernobog from some details.
The Loban family, as well as countless civilians in Chernobog, were probably sold out by the nobles riding on top of them.Most of the nobles living here have already evacuated from Chernobog. They probably won't know exactly what happened, but they definitely have received related news.
Li Ke was a little helpless. Under such circumstances, the unlucky ones would always be ordinary people.Maybe they didn't do anything, but in the eyes of some people, it's their fault that they didn't do anything.
"You can't say that. Although there are no famous scenic spots in Chernobog, the city's reputation in the outside world is not small." Li Ke thought for a moment, and waited until the two people in front of him finished showing their affection, before slowing down. Said slowly.
Listening to Li Ke's words, Mr. Luo Ban seemed to have noticed something, put down the wine bottle in his hand, and looked at Li Ke with a slight frown, "...what do you want to say?"
"Infected." Li Ke spread his hands, "As the 'city of death' for the infected, I saw a heart-wrenching scene on the first day after entering the city—a group of fourteen or fifteen-year-old teenagers, Wanting to kill a six or seven-year-old infected child, what's even more amazing is that they don't think there's anything wrong with what they're doing."
"So, I want to ask the two of you, as ordinary people living in Chernobog... what do you two think of infected people?"
The people Li Ke knew well were either the infected, or the courier who worked in the shadows of the city, or the young lady who was not in harmony with the world.And these people, their views on the infected cannot represent the general public.
Now, an opportunity appeared before Li Ke's eyes.In this city where the hatred between the infected and ordinary people is the deepest, what do the ordinary people in this family think about the infection?
As for whether he would make the family angry and drive him out, Li Ke didn't care at all.If they get angry because of their own problem, it shows their attitude.
After Li Ke finished speaking, the atmosphere at the table became a little dignified.Mrs. Dahlia's face also showed a ray of sadness, and Mr. Roban frowned, hesitating to speak.
Mr. Luoban tightly squeezed the wine bottle in his hand, and after a long silence, he opened his mouth and said slowly, "This question..."
It was just that Mr. Luoban spoke for a short while before being interrupted by the sound of the door opening.
"Dad, Mom, I'm back." A lively voice came from the direction of the door.
Their daughter, Zoya, is back. "Huh... It's been a week, and I'm finally back."
The girl came bouncing from the door.
Her gray hair was obviously inherited from her father, and her long hair was tied into two braids hanging down her chest. Her face was more similar to her mother's.Entering the room, Zoya quickly took off the heavy backpack from her shoulders and put it aside, then trotted all the way towards the dining table.
After seeing Li Ke, Zoya stopped her footsteps, her red eyes flashed with curiosity, and she looked at the extra stranger in the house.
(PS. Absinthe originally had long hair, but when she escaped from Qiecheng, she cut off her long hair for the convenience of movement.)
"Dad, who is he?"
"He, he is a traveler who has traveled around the world of Terra, and he just arrived in Chernobog today." In front of his daughter, Mr. Loban praised Li Ke, "After my mother met him, , let him live in our house for a while..."
"Don't you really want to go out? We don't have time to take you out, so it's not bad to let you listen to the stories outside?"
