The System Sent Me an Object [End of the World]

Chapter 12



Chapter 12

Lian Ru Ning woke up in the midst of shaking, opened his eyes and looked out the car window, only to see an endless field. In a daze, she thought she had returned to Hao Jian’s village, but the bumpy mountain road almost made her throw up.

“Where is this?” She looked at Hao Jian.

“Wake up? I don’t know where this is.”

Lian Ru Ning was shocked: “Then why is Kai Kai here?”

“The main road was completely paralyzed and the highway was over, so I made a slight detour. However, without navigation, I would get lost.” Hao Jian took it for granted, and there was no embarrassment.

Lian Ru Ning’s eyes widened in surprise, and after a while she was speechless: “So, where are you going now?”

“When I came in, I saw the word “Nongjiale” on it, so I came in for dinner!”

Lian Ru Ningpa pulled the car window and saw the sunset glowing red, and the ground was steaming hot from the residual heat. She has slept for more than two hours. She didn’t rest much last night. She encountered so many zombies during the day, and she slept for so long under exhaustion.

On the contrary, Hao Jian seemed to have never rested. She thought that they should also find a place to rest after night fell, so she did not object to it.

The car followed the simple billboard and drove into the forest. On the road, you could see houses in twos and threes, but they were not the size of the village. After passing a fish pond, the car was in front of a house made of pure wood. The house looked rather crude, as if the car would collapse when it hits it.

“Is there anyone else?” Lian Runing looked around cautiously, she wouldn’t get out of the car easily without confirming her safety.

“Beep beep—” Hao Jian clicked on his horn.

Lian Ru Ning thought, isn’t she afraid of attracting zombies? But he wouldn’t question Hao Jian’s actions. After all, the experience of getting along these days proves that Hao Jian’s actions have not yet been reckless.

Someone in the room poked out his head cautiously, Hao Jian opened the door and got out of the car, and asked, “Are you still in business?”

“Where are you from?” The man walked out, but with a hatchet in his hand.

“After passing through the country road, I came in when I saw the signboard. I stopped doing business, right?”

The man thought for a while, then glanced at her and Lian Ru Ning, and said, “Is here to eat? There is food.”

Hao Jian walked over, the man also turned around and put down the hatchet, and looked at her carefully, secretly thanking her that she was a living person. Seeing his movements, Hao Jian asked, “We are not sick at all. We just plan to have a meal and leave. You can rest assured.”

A middle-aged woman greeted her from the inside and asked, “Is it all right?”

“It’s okay, here to eat.” The man replied.

Lian Runing had gotten out of the car. She saw such a simple environment here and said, “Are you living here?”

“How is it possible? I usually do business here. Don’t look at this simple place. Many people just like this environment. Usually many people come.” The man said and pointed them to a table.

There is an empty window behind this table, you can directly see the fish pond, and there is a wooden bridge over the fish pond, on which you can fish. Lian Ru Ning also likes this kind of leisure time, no wonder there is business in such a remote place.

“But why don’t you eat in the hotel or restaurant outside?” the middle-aged woman asked curiously.

Hao Jian smiled: “Don’t you know what the mess is going on outside? Those restaurants are closed.”

The two of them thought about it, and were even more confused: “Then how do you know we haven’t closed the door?”

“Guess, I just came to try my luck, I didn’t expect us to touch it.”

The man laughed and said, “I’m telling you, I, I originally planned to close the door and go home to guard, but when I thought there were so many dishes and fish left to deal with, I couldn’t bear it. Go back and pick the vegetables too, lest they be left and spoiled.”

“Yes, we heard the sound of the car and we were frightened, and we dared to come out after hiding for a while.” The middle-aged woman also added.

“At this time, guarding the food is the most important thing, isn’t it, why are you willing to let us eat?” Lian Ru Ning asked.

The two of them were taken aback, and then laughed and said: “These things can’t be stored for a long time. They are either ruined or broken when they are left. If someone needs them, why don’t they take them out and eat them?”

Lian Ru Ning was suspicious of human nature for a while, but she seemed to see the kindness of human nature in them again. She turned to share this feeling with Hao Jian, but Hao Jian Lisuo ordered the dishes and said: “Trouble.”

When they left, Lian Ru Ning said, “They are really kind, but… are you really here to try your luck?”

Hao Jian thought for a while and whispered: “How is it possible.”

Lian Ruling looked at her in surprise: “That—”

“I just got lost while avoiding the paralyzed road, and then accidentally came to a small town in a neighboring city, and remembered that one of my friends’ hometown was here, and according to him, his home is I opened a farmhouse. I detoured a little bit and found it in.”

Lian Ru Ning also admired: “It’s luck to come here, but is your friend away?”

“It seems that he is still in Pearl City, and he is not clear whether he is alive or dead.”

“Then are these, his parents?”

“It should be, I always hear him brag about how nice his parents are, and I see it with my own eyes. If there is a chance to see him, then I will identify with him once!”

“Then you are not going to tell them that you are friends with their children?”

Hao Jian raised his eyebrows and smiled again: “I can’t do anything. Since I can’t reunite their family, why should I tell them that their children are still in the dark in Pearl City?”

Lian Ru Ning thought for a while, and that was indeed the case. Like Southern City, Pearl City is more chaotic and more susceptible to infection than here. If they stay here, they may not be in danger, and they can wait for their children to come back. But once they learn about the relationship between Hao Jian and their children, either they will go to Pearl City to find their children, or they will be more anxious and sad while waiting.

The dishes were served soon, and Hao Jian looked at them in confusion as he watched the extra dishes.

“Anyway, there are too many people to eat, you eat more, the money will not be overcharged.” The middle-aged woman said.

“In the next few days, there may be a shortage of food. You still think of a way to dry or pickle these vegetables into preserved food such as preserved vegetables, save it.” Hao Jian said.

“This is also a good way.” The middle-aged woman smiled.

Lian Ru Ning asked tentatively, “Are you the only ones here?”

“Oh, yeah, it’s usually our husband and wife, and a relative. But she went home after the accident.”

“It looks a bit remote here, do you know something happened outside?”

“We heard about it when we went to the market to buy ingredients, but it was my son who contacted me before and told me something, so we watched TV and found out that it was really dangerous!”

“Oh, that’s a blessing. When we came, we saw many people who were killed without knowing the outside world. However, you said your son, then he…”

“He is not here. He is in Pearl City. After hearing that the Pearl City also had an accident, the government evacuated urgently. He followed to take refuge. As long as he has the opportunity, he will be able to return.”

Lian Runing looked at Hao Jian happily, who pushed Fan to her front: “Aren’t you hungry? The food is going to be cold.”

Lian Runing muttered in her heart how Hao Jian heard the news but was not happy for the safety of her friends. When the middle-aged woman left, Hao Jian first asked her and said, “Along the way, you listened to the radio and heard about it. Where did you go for emergency evacuation?”

Lian Ru Ning opened her mouth, dumbly: “Looks like there is none.”

“No one knows which of the people who have taken refuge carries the zombie virus. The so-called refuge is simply a joke.”

Lian Runing also understood: “He said this to make his parents feel at ease?!”

After eating, the couple took out two disposable lunch boxes and gave them to Hao Jian: “Let me see where you are going. You might be hungry at night and take them to eat on the road.”

Hao Jian was silent for a moment, took the lunch box and passed it to Lian Ru Ning, then went back to the car and took out the backpack. Lian Ru Ning was a little confused when she saw that she had pulled out three bags of things from her backpack. Wasn’t there no food in her previous backpack? Where did these things come from?

Inside are two bags of jerky, one bag of compressed biscuits, and two bottles of lemon tea that Lian Ru Ning moved from the gas station convenience store. She handed the things to the couple: “This is a gift in return. Save it to eat when it’s difficult, so it can last longer.”

She didn’t plan to use the permissions that the system said was open at level 1 to buy food (only three servings). But not only because of their favor, but also for You Xiaoxiao’s sake, she can help as much as she can.

A bag or a catty of dried meat costs 20 points, while compressed biscuits only require 5 points. Even so, Hao Jian spent more than half of the points accumulated, but she did not feel heartache.

“We have something to eat, keep it for yourself!” You father and mother naturally refused to accept it.

Hao Jian then returned the lunch box they had given back. Seeing that she was really stubborn, your father regarded her as an exchange of food and accepted it.

Lian Ru Ning ran to the driver’s seat and smiled slightly: “It’s my turn to drive. You can rest for a while.”

Hao Jian didn’t say much. Before sitting down in the passenger seat, he said to the couple: “Uncle You, Auntie, goodbye.”

Seeing the car drove away, the couple looked at each other: “Did you tell them my last name?”

Hao Jian put the lunch box on the front dashboard, and closed his eyes to rest on the back of the chair. Seeing that she closed her eyes, Lian Ru Ning didn’t bother her, but she didn’t expect that she was actually dealing with the system.

“Doesn’t the host plan to use the convenience provided by the system?” The system is a little arrogant.

“Well, because I don’t think it is necessary.” She can find a way to search for food, and she uses the convenience of exchanging food provided by the system, but she doesn’t know whether the system has set any traps.

“But you still used it.”

Hao Jian decided not to hear it. There was a sudden exclamation in the ear, and the car came to a halt slowly. Hao Jian hurriedly opened his eyes and straightened up: “What’s the matter?”

Lian Ru Ningmian was delighted, and quickly took out his mobile phone to Hao Jian: “I have thought of a way to find a way!”

“You mean using a map? There is no internet.”

Lian Ru Ning took the phone back and clicked on the map: “I almost forgot, because I often have to go to remote places without internet, so I usually get a good map offline. I have maps for the entire province, and some Offline maps of cities you’ve traveled to!”

“But there is no navigation, isn’t it?”

When Lian Ru Ning discovered that Hao Jian seemed to have some brain failures occasionally, she smiled and found a compass in her backpack, and then handed her mobile phone to Hao Jian: “I can only trouble you to compare the map and the compass. , Showed me the way.”

This time, Hao Jian was stunned. Although she had a good sense of direction, she felt more tired than driving by letting her stare at the map and compass.

Lian Ru Ning blinked and looked at her expectantly. She looked at the objects in her hand and sighed: “Let’s drive…”
