Something's wrong, they're not NPCs?

"Don't look at me as clumsy, but I'm always praised for my cleverness in handicraft class."

"...Want to go out and get eaten together?"

"what."

I had totally forgotten about any large creatures appearing.

"Although I agree that you should keep a relaxed attitude, you still need to be more or less cautious."

"Sorry……"

2 month 29 day.

early.

The last day of the month.

My brother-in-law recovered, but unfortunately, the weather on the surface was not suitable for me to go out. So my brother-in-law had to go by himself.

At times like this, all I can do is prepare the ingredients as seasoned as possible, wash the towels, and wait for my brother-in-law to come back and wipe his sweat.

2 month 29 day.

noon.

My brother-in-law is back.

"It's impossible to repair it for the time being. The equipment is completely damaged, and the wires inside have been chewed into a mess by something."

That means we can't receive new information.

For a period of time afterwards, the operation of the laboratory depended entirely on my brother-in-law.

"But... if Sister Xia Ye comes, Brother-in-law won't have to worry about these things at all, right?"

"almost."

"It's hard to imagine how smart Sister Xia Ye is to be able to build a laboratory like this."

"Is it hard to imagine? I remember that long ago she couldn't even use a shower. After taking a shower, she shook her head and splashed water all over me. I guess she learned that from a stray dog."

"..."

I found that my brother-in-law always looked relaxed when he talked about Sister Xia Ye, as if the difficulties he had just encountered were not a problem at all and there was nothing to worry about.

This state...

I mean, I can be so relaxed and not worry about anything when I talk about it. I will never be able to do that, right?

"Tsk, speaking of summer nights, I thought of a fun one."

"?"

"..."

What is it?

I was asked to pull up my collar and simulate playing the piano in front of my bra. It was so embarrassing.

"Combined with your sensitive reaction, it's a sure win."

He totally took my shy reaction as a joke.

Too much.

3 month 1 day.

It's been a week.

No. 72 was the message delivered on February 2th. Sister Xia Ye should have set off earlier than before No. 25 delivered the message.

But there were no visitors to the laboratory.

"No more cigarettes?"

"Forget it, I'll just take this opportunity to use something like honey instead."

"I won't get diabetes if I eat too much sweets, right?"

"Brother-in-law, diabetes is not caused by eating too much sugar... there are many reasons."

"Oh, anyway, I just happened to think that your sister is pregnant and you should quit smoking. So just quit."

"..."

I didn't mention that it had been a week. My brother-in-law didn't mention it either. We were just doing the same thing as usual.

but……

"Well."

Maybe my brother-in-law is a little more passionate than usual and wants to demand more from me?

3 month 2 day.

noon.

"Eight days?"

"Did you encounter something on the road?"

"..."

I rarely see my brother-in-law show that he is worried about someone.

Because the surface conversion device was completely destroyed, my brother-in-law had to work harder and was more tired.

Once encountering fluctuations, overused abilities will immediately become weakened.

"We really need to prepare. If we keep waiting like this, the food and water will run out."

"The changes in longitude and latitude... I think the decreasing amount of groundwater is related to this."

My brother-in-law plans to go out and collect more snow to bring back.

I also plan to continue trying to repair the equipment on the surface. The instructions left by No. 72 are too complicated for me to understand. My brother-in-law may be repairing it just to comfort me.

If Sister Xia Ye still needs a long time to come, or can't come at all, we need to make preparations, right?

3 month 2 day.

in the afternoon.

The laboratory has telescopes for observing the surface of the earth, in dozens of places large and small.

"..."

I just want to keep watching and see my brother-in-law in advance.

But I never said I wanted to see my brother-in-law, covered in blood, dying and holding a crowbar, coming to the laboratory.

Have you fought against the monsters that appeared before?

"..."

I saw my brother-in-law fall in the snow, then get up again. He couldn't walk anymore. Why did he still carry a bag full of stuff at this point?

I have never seen my brother-in-law in such a miserable state with blood all over his body. I know very well that my brother-in-law is a person of flesh and blood, whether in reality or here, he will feel pain and may lose one day.

elevator.

I didn’t have the authority to open it before, but after No. 72 left…

I have permission.

In order to take care of my brother-in-law more conveniently, I begged him to give me all the authority.

3 month 2 day.

in the afternoon.

Su Ming was a little confused. Why was there such a large-scale event?

There was clearly no sign of any monsters before.

It looked more like a giant creature made up of various monsters entangled together. Its speed, strength, and size were all very different from those it had encountered before. It even seemed to have some kind of memory that knew what it would use, how it would attack, and how it would dodge.

Really tired.

Use enchantments and Philosopher's Blade to the maximum extent possible, and you will be unable to move after your adrenaline is overdrawn.

It was a miracle that he managed to walk back with the crowbar he found.

It is possible to read the file.

But Su Ming couldn't guarantee that he could solve it within ten times. This time it was just a matter of luck and he just happened to make a profit by exchanging injuries for injuries.

"..."

Fall in the snow and get up again.

I want to light a cigarette.

Su Ming recalled that he had told An Xiaoxi in the lab that he was going to quit smoking. He couldn't smoke anymore, could he? Yao already had a child, and even if there were any adverse effects, Xiaoye could help solve them. But to be a good father, he should give up his bad habits.

"..."

It fell again.

I really don't have any strength. I still feel cold when holding the knife. I would probably freeze to death if I didn't enjoy the bonus.

The destroyed radio has been seen.

Shit.

Maybe Xiaoye had passed on some new information while on the road, but it was broken because of the monster. The instructions given by No. 72 were not enough for Su Ming to repair the almost broken device in just a few days.

Coming.

You can also crawl back. This time I got a lot of rewards, and I also found canned food.

Only two days left?

Could it be that he went back without seeing Xia Ye in the end?

"Brother-in-law!"

"..."

Su Ming knew why An Xiaoxi came out in such a hurry.

I guess he was secretly looking at the mirror again and discovered his miserable appearance?

“It’s already like this! Why are you still carrying a bag?!”

The little pearls fell.

Of course you have to carry a bag, otherwise why go out? Only with this can you feel energetic. Only with energy can you feel at ease.

"Brother-in-law can still laugh!"

"Why... ahem, can't I laugh?"

Holding An Xiaoxi's slender shoulders, I shouldn't have to fall in the snow again. It's really cold with snow on my face.

"..."

Crying badly.

It was as if she was the one who was in pain.

Ok.

This is the same as An Shiyao. If it was Xueer, she would have wanted to reward herself while dropping the little pearls. She should still believe that Se Se can relieve pain.

"Rumble--"

"?"

Why is there still fog?

The ground was shaking slightly.

The direction is... the place where I killed that thing.

not dead?

Or is there a second one?
