Dedicate cubes to the end of the world

After a while, Qianju tried it with a spoon, and when he felt it was ready, he took the pot down, leaving only the fire still burning there.

"Everyone, dinner is ready. It's time to eat."

After putting beef stewed with taro into everyone's cup, the three of them sat in a row at the table on one side and started eating.

"Hot, hot, hot," Yuli ate anxiously, and then she was burned. Then she blew on a small piece to let it cool down, and then ate, "Yeah, it's delicious."

"Well, it's really good," Qianhu also started eating, but because it was still very hot at first, everyone ate very slowly.

Senju was relieved after tasting it. Although he still thought potatoes would be better, taro is also good.

After the three of them finished their dinner happily, they washed the tableware and put it on the shelf aside. Then they started doing their own things nearby. Qianju was also preparing to make some tea for everyone to drink.

While Qianju was boiling water, she watched Yuri start to take care of her rifle. Maybe because she found some bullets, she wanted to go out and practice her marksmanship, but after lying on the bed for a while, she forgot about it. back.

Qianhu continued to write in his diary, as if he wanted to record everything he had not written in the past few days.

"Xiao Qian, what are you writing?" Qian Shu looked at her drawing pictures and was a little curious.

"Well, I haven't recorded what happened these days because I have been a little busy recently, so when I have free time now, I will write down the things about Ishii, airplanes and food factories."

"Oh, Xiaoqian is so diligent, come and try the tea I just made." Qianju brought over a cup of hot tea, which was the tea he had just made.

"What is this?" Qianhu looked at the white cup. There was a ball of turquoise liquid with a strange aroma coming from it. "This is a strange thing. Is it really drinkable?"

"Of course," Qianju held a cup and drank it. A faint bitterness accompanied by the aroma of tea appeared in his mouth, "Well, the taste

Not bad. "

"Really?" Qianhu also tasted it, "It tastes strange, but it feels good."

"Hey, what are you eating?" Yuli jumped down from the bed, and Qianju also brought her a drink.

"Well, it has a strange taste. It tastes a bit bitter, but it tastes good. It has a strange feeling."

"Really? That's good. Yuri also likes tea."

"Well, there was a smell of beef in my mouth just now, but now I feel a refreshing fragrance. This is really good stuff, much better than water."

"Yes, yes," Qianju also slowly drank the tea. Slowly, the three of them drank up the pot of tea, and then they thought of taking a rest.

So everyone lay on the bed, with Qianhu and Yuri on one side and Senju on the other. However, none of the three fell asleep after lying there for a while.

"Yu, are you asleep?" Qianhu opened her eyes and asked Yuli next to her. Yuli also had her eyes open. "You're not asleep. It's better to say that you're not sleepy at all."

"Huhuhu," Qianju pretended to sleep soundly on the side. The two people next to him lay there for a while before they felt sleepy. Then the three of them slowly fell into a deep sleep.

Chapter 73 Useless Collectibles

However, Chiju, who knew the truth the next day, didn't say anything. Instead, she asked Chiju to brew less tea at a time so that it would last longer. It seemed that she also liked the tea.

After packing up the things, Senju put the hut away, and then everyone continued to search for supplies. As they continued to go deeper into the city, the temperature gradually dropped.

A few days later, the three of them felt that the weather had become cold again. It seemed that the warm period had passed. However, because they had already prepared supplies, everyone was still very leisurely. They casually searched for supplies in nearby buildings and found them inside. After picking up some food and encountering a refueling point, Qianju collected a few more barrels of fuel.

However, as everyone passed through the city, many iron walls appeared in front of them. These walls were built individually one after another. Each one was more than ten meters high, more than 30 meters long, and more than one meter wide.

There are many small doors on it, and it seems that there is something hidden inside. Black walls like this are arranged in rows and rows on the empty flat ground in front of them, extending into the distance, seemingly endless.

These black walls and the dark clouds in the sky together created a depressing atmosphere, but for the three people who had survived in the ruins for so long, they had no impact at all.

After the three of them advanced for a while, Yuri asked Qianhu to stop the car, and then she ran to the wall next to her and groped around.

It turned out that Yuli found a box protruding from the wall, so she ran over excitedly to see what was inside. After groping inside for a while, she took out something like a radio from inside.

"Yes," Yuli clapped the radio in her hand curiously, "What is this?"

The two people nearby also came over curiously, and Qianhu was also curious, "Show me."

"There is a button here." Yuri ignored Qianhu and continued to turn some buttons on it, but the machine showed no response. "It's not working. What is this machine for?"

"This should be a radio," Qianju took the radio and began to adjust it, but now that there is no radio, the machine becomes a thing that only makes a hissing sound.

"Radio? What's the use of it?"

"It can receive radio waves. If someone around you plays a sound through the radio, you can pick up the sound with the radio."

Then he handed the radio to Yuri and said, "Keep it. If there are other sounds coming from it, it means there are working radio stations around, and there should be humans there."

"Well, let's name you 'Human Detector'," Yuli shouted excitedly, holding up the radio.

After shouting, she came up with the idea of ​​other boxes, but seeing that there was nothing she could do about the tightly closed box, she asked Qianju to help with the lever. Qianju was also very interested in these and wanted to see what was inside. What, just followed Yuli and came over.

Qian Shu tried to pull the box next to him, but there was no handle on it, so he used a pull rod to place it on it. After pulling it, several boxes around him were rushed out, and a few bone powder jumped out from it and entered Qian Shu. It was in the hand's package, but Qianju didn't notice it.Then the three of them looked inside and found that there was nothing inside.

"There's nothing," Yuli was a little disappointed, but she still hoped that there would be something in the other boxes.

After the two drove a few more times, they found that there was only a piece of iron inside, so they gave up. After sitting in the car, Qianju didn't want to make trouble with Yuri anymore and lay on the car to load salted fish.

However, Yuli still paid attention to the boxes around her along the way, and she found some small things.

After walking around like this for a while, Qianhu asked the three people their doubts, "What exactly is this place doing?"

"Indeed, it's another mysterious building."

"Well, it seems like no one lives here, and there are no factories or anything around."

"It's all black walls. What is it for? It's a strange place." Yuli also lay down in the back and fiddled with the radio.

"But the strangest thing is that," Qianhu's voice came from the front.

Yuli thought she was talking about the machine in her hand, "Sure enough, this machine called 'radio' is the weirdest."

"That's not it,"

Qianhu rejected Yuri's idea, "It's those drawers on the wall. They are basically closed and cannot be opened. Even if a few are opened, they are all empty. They were there from the beginning. I didn’t put anything there, but someone still took it away.”

"Xiao Qian, wait, there is a drawer out there, let me go and see what's there."

Qianhu stopped out of habit, and then saw Yuri climbing up an iron ladder protruding from the wall.

"Be careful," Qianhu looked worried at Yuri's shaky movements, but Yuri was not afraid at all. After opening the drawer next to her, she found a button inside, "Even if there is something inside, It’s not something important.”

"That's right," Qianhu felt relieved after watching Yuri climb down. "What's in there that we've found so far?"

"Well, let's take a look." After Yuli sat in the car, she took out the collected things, "Radio, iron pieces, empty cartridge cases, rags, and the buttons I just found, that's pretty much it." , if Qianju helps, there will be more."

Qianju ignored Yuli and continued to pretend to be salted fish, but Qianhu was surprised, "Hey, did you bring them all?"

"Well, I think it might be of some use." After Yuli put away the rags and other things, she fiddled with the radio there. After twisting it for a while, a rustling sound came from inside.

"These things are basically useless," Qianhu turned to look at Yuri, and then continued to drive forward.

"I think it will be of some use, Senju, are you right?" Yuli listened to the sound on the radio and asked Senju on the side.

"Well, it probably has some use."

"What use can those rags be used for?" Qianhu couldn't help but complain, and then he couldn't help but sigh.

"Why do you actually collect things that are useless and worthless?"

As the car moved forward, the surroundings became colder. Qianju tightened the blanket around him and wrapped it more tightly. However, when he breathed, he could see a stream of white air coming out of the front. Qianju regretted not looking for a scarf. tie up.

The two people next to him also felt the cold air and were trembling a little.

At this moment, Qianhu suddenly shouted in surprise, "Ah, there is something very familiar in front of me."

Chapter 74 The cemetery where no one will come again

"Oh?" Yuri turned around and looked, then sighed happily, staring straight ahead. Qianju also wanted to see what it was, but Qianhu had already stopped the car.

After the three of them got out of the car, Qianju realized that there was a familiar stone statue in front of him, with a cylindrical body and a slightly curved head.

"Oh, the mysterious stone statue," Yuli stood in front of the stone statue and cheered, then extended her hand to Qianhu, "Xiaoqian, camera, camera, hurry up and take a picture."

Then Yuli took a camera and started taking pictures of the stone statue. While taking pictures, she talked to the stone statue, "It's been a long time no see."

"You really like this," Qianju watched Yuri go around and take pictures of the stone statue, feeling a little emotional about her hobby. Qianju also found that he had no interest in this pillar, but he taught her to draw funny pictures. How about the avatar, Qianju thought with some anticipation.

"Because the shape is great and makes people feel calm." Yuri took a few more pictures. Qianju and Qianhu sat on the platform next to them and watched her take pictures.

After a while, Yuli felt that she had taken enough photos, and said with emotion to the camera, "Speaking of which, the camera is really easy to use. As long as you take a picture, you won't forget it."

"Thanks to Senju for this."

"...Does this camera originally belong to Senju?" Yuri thought for a while, forgot where the camera came from, and took a photo of Senju and Qianhu.

"Have you forgotten, this camera was exchanged for the one from Senju and Kanazawa."

"Kanazawa, who is that?"

"Hey, he's the one who exchanged cameras with you." Qianhu couldn't help but raise his voice, and Qianju took out a camera on the side to remind her, "So this is what it is."

"Ah, I remembered it." After Yuli thought for a while, she suddenly realized, "If I didn't have this camera, I would have forgotten it."

Then he looked at the camera in his hand gratefully, "Thank you, camera."

"I don't usually forget it so easily," Senju and Qianhu complained at the same time, but one was thinking in his heart and the other was complaining about Yuri.

"I wonder if he is okay?" Qianhu was a little worried about Kanazawa's current situation. Qianju also felt a little worried, "It should be fine. He was still so energetic at that time. He would not give up until he finished drawing the map. .”

But Yuri was relieved, "It's okay. As long as this camera is still there, Kanazawa will always exist in our hearts."

"Don't make it sound like he's dead," Qianhu complained about Yuri's tone, but Yuri understood it clearly, "However, whether he is alive or dead, it seems that there will be no second chance. This is a chance to meet."

"Well, it is indeed difficult," Qianhu said and stood there in a daze.

"I feel like I will forget him one day," Yuri's words made Qianju feel a burst of agreement. He hadn't thought of Kanazawa for a long time, and he would probably disappear from his mind sooner or later.

"Ah, so that's what happened?" Qianhu, who was in a daze, seemed to have discovered something and ran to the wall next to him. The two people next to him also

Followed.

"Look here," Qianhu pointed to a line of small words on the outside of the drawer. "We have always ignored it because it is too small, but there is a name on each drawer. This must be the name of the owner of the things inside."

"Are the things inside those things that those people forgot?" Yuli was in a daze and couldn't understand it at all, but Qianju heard what Qianhu meant and couldn't help but feel a chill.

"Rather than forgetting them, it's better to say that they were placed here so as not to forget them." Qianhu struggled for a moment, then looked seriously at the two people next to him, "This is a cemetery."

Following Qianhu's words, snowflakes fell from the sky, seemingly crying for these people. The three of them looked at these endless walls with sadness, "A cemetery."

"The items and names left here must be a symbol to prevent others from forgetting these people."

"That's it." Yuli also understood somewhat.

"But if there are no more people like us passing by, and the world becomes empty, who will remember them."

"Here, look," Yuli patted the stone statue of mystery, "Isn't there another one?"

The two people next to them stared at the stone statue that seemed to have stood here forever and understood. Qianhu also understood, "Is this the stone statue that was built for this purpose?"

"Ah," a snowflake hit Qianhu's face. Only then did she realize that the snow around her had become heavier, and the car was also filled with snow.

"The snow is getting heavier."

"The weather is getting colder again."

"That's right. Now it's winter again."

Qianhu stretched out his hand to catch the falling snowflakes, and after a while he said, "I need to return the things."

"what is this?"

"The things we took away just now."

"Oh, why?" Yuli was a little confused.

"If those things don't stay here, there will be no meaning of existence." Qianhu sighed, "This is the meaning of this place."

Just when Qianhu was about to turn around and return the things, Qianju also placed two hell rock pillars in front of the stone statue and lit fire on them. Although the surrounding snowflakes were still falling, the fire on them was still burning. Burning.

"Senju, what is this?"

"This, consider it a worship service. Let this fire remember this place for us." Qianju bowed to the stone statue, then turned around with Qianhu to return the things.

However, as the wind and snow increased, Qianhu became a little worried, "Do you still remember the location of these things?"

"Ah, just put this here," Yuli stopped in front of a drawer and fell into a dilemma, "Well, it will be the same wherever you put it."

"No," Qianhu quickly stopped Yuri's optimistic approach, but in the end she let Yuri place it in her own way because everyone had forgotten the original location of these things.

After putting these things into the drawer, the three of them slowly left the cemetery regardless of the heavy snow.

After leaving the cemetery, Qianju found a place to park the car. The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and the three of them felt very cold. Qianju spread a layer of hell rock on the flat ground next to it. The container house was placed on it, and then the three of them covered the car and got in.

After the three of them entered, Qianju lit a fire on the hell rock inside. It became warm inside for a while, so everyone took off their coats and hung them next to them. Then Qianju prepared some food on the fire to ward off the cold.

Qianhu was sitting at the table next to him, recording everything he saw today in his diary. After Yuli was in a daze for a while, she ran to the food shelf to find her favorite food.
