Something's wrong, they're not NPCs?

1 month 15 day.

morning.

An Xiaoxi didn't sleep well the whole night.

She also pressed Su Ming to get to the bottom of the matter, without even asking why he stopped going out.

'The situation has temporarily changed, and I have to stay here for a few days.'

Although An Xiaoxi didn't think it was a bad thing to be able to stay here and be close for a while longer.

But An Xiaoxi could feel whether it was an unreserved and happy contact or a night activity with a hidden agenda.

Why go to Sea Isle City?

Because after my brother-in-law got over the shadow of his wife's death, his only wish was to figure out what was happening in the world, and he would never be able to understand it by staying in the laboratory.

That is definitely not something that should be stopped. On the contrary, I should fully support it.

and so……

Only then would he go out wearing the clothes provided by No. 72. No matter how light it is, it is useless. He always carries the twenty pounds of conversion equipment on his back, and his mind will unconsciously think of the monster that his brother-in-law faced before.

Scared.

I was also worried that if my brother-in-law killed that kind of thing a few more times... he would be very sad.

"Did you notice that we hardly felt the earthquake yesterday while staying in the lab?"

"The surface was in a terrible state. It was completely transformed. It was turned upside down."

"..."

An Xiaoxi also took a look at the outside world through the observation equipment.

It was indeed completely different, as if it had been plowed all over again.

“This technology is put

"All right."

"No. 72 means that there is a lot of data on how to build a laboratory. I'm sorry to trouble you."

"..."

An Xiaoxi doesn't care about how the body helps deepen memory.

Not to mention that it is really useful, I would even be willing to do it just for fun.

"Change clothes?"

"If you make it more emotional, people will remember it faster."

"..."

Cheongsam or nurse uniform, it doesn’t matter.

"Oh? Stance like this? Hiss."

If you want to be more sentimental, shouldn't you act embarrassed?

so.

"Brother-in-law."

"Ok?"

"Not going out for now... So when are we going to Sea Island City?"

"In a few days."

As if he didn't care at all.

Just answer casually. An Xiaoxi didn't want to think too much, she just wanted to...

She believed whatever Su Ming said.

But it simply won’t work, right?

It was the same before. Every time my brother-in-law went out, he would say "it's okay" and my sister would wait. Until she found her brother-in-law dying, she collapsed.

A few days ago, my brother-in-law said it was okay every time he went out, but when something so serious happened, he didn't even bother to ask for any warmth from me. I just wanted to get through it alone.

1 month 15 day.

Night.

"Xiao Xi, I plan to go out and find something to eat tomorrow."

"No. 72 said there are several factories nearby, not far away."

"……Um."

"Do you like honey?"

"it's OK."

"I heard honey can improve your skin's appearance? Is that true?"

"Sure...but I'll get acne if I use it."

"..."

2067 is the year of the Queen.

Maybe I took good care of myself? I learned so much from my sister, maybe I would be like that.

So, what would you do now that you are in your 60s and have become a diva?

Will I be content just curled up next to my brother-in-law like I am now?

"Xiao Xi?"

"Brother-in-law...if you answer the questions correctly, I will give you benefits."

"..."

"E=h*f. My brother-in-law missed this."

"Ok."

"But...I will still give benefits to my brother-in-law."

"?"

"Do not want?"

"want."

There is no need to deliberately make sensational actions or sounds.

I just wanted to help deepen my memory. If writing on the skin can help, wouldn't it be better during the service?

1 month 16 day.

early.

Seeing my brother-in-law step into the elevator, I tried hard to smile and waved.

“Brother-in-law, food… don’t look for too much, there’s enough for now.”

"Safety is the most important thing."

"I'm easy to feed."

"Can you live by eating grass?"

Looking at my brother-in-law's exaggerated smile, I couldn't tell whether he was telling a dirty joke or just joking. But it doesn't matter, right?

I don't hate my brother-in-law swearing in front of me.

In the beginning, I even said some dirty words that I never said before, which I learned from movies, such as come on, in order to be more like a bitch.

what can i do

Besides helping my brother-in-law remember the symbols, serving him when necessary, talking to him, and preparing breakfast.

"..."

I saw No. 72 carrying a toolbox and seemed to be entering the elevator as well.

"The energy conversion devices outside the laboratory have all failed. And the climate has reversed. No. 72 needs to rebuild the thermal energy conversion device to supply the laboratory with basic energy."

"is it?"

That's business too.

If there is no light in a place like this and the temperature cannot be maintained at a suitable level for my survival, I will suffer.

What was I going to say?

Ask No. 72 if the situation is very bad now and whether he can no longer go to Sea Island City.

As the elevator went up again, I was the only one in the small space. There was no sound, it was too quiet.

I try to imagine.

If no one is here, I am the only one left here.

"..."

My body was shaking unconsciously.

1 month 16 day.

noon.

Number 72 is back.

“We don’t carry enough 72-gauge wire.”

She came back to get something, she didn't need to eat, and went out again after getting it.

To be honest, seeing her alive and hearing her voice... relieved some of my anxiety.

Should I blame myself?

I dared to imagine that there was no one around and I was the only one left here waiting.

1 month 16 day.

Night.

My brother-in-law came back and he really found honey.

"I've tasted it, it's sweet."

"..."

I think it's sweet too.

But it wasn’t just because of the honey in her mouth, it was because her brother-in-law came back.

The previous anxiety completely disappeared. I felt relaxed.

For a moment I didn't want to think about anything.

"Xiao Xi?"

"I want to... hug my brother-in-law."

"is it?"

"..."

When my brother-in-law stroked my hair as if to comfort me, I regretted it.

Isn't this equivalent to telling my brother-in-law that he can't abandon me and that I won't go anywhere unless I can return to the surface?

"Try the honey."

"Brother-in-law, I just wanted to imitate my sister and act like a spoiled child."

"What's there to learn?"

"Sister, there must be times when you want to hug your brother-in-law tightly, right?"

"A lot. When she gets cake all over her face, she'll rub it on my clothes, even though I want to remind her that she's the one who washes the clothes in the end."
