Chapter 344 The Dark Captain's Little Rose (32)
It was getting close to evening, the sun was still high outside and the weather was hot without any change.
The ground temperature was incredibly high, and the stones on the roadside glowed white under the scorching sun.
Bai Chao is alone today.
Xiao Xuxing could take him with him on some of his work, but not on some, so Xiao Xuxing directly gave the card containing the contribution points to Bai Chao so that he could use it at any time.
Bai Chao stood in the shade, watering the saplings that had wilted from the sun.
The sun was just setting in the sky when a surprised voice was heard from afar.
"Li...Brother Li!"
Bai Chao raised his head and saw Zhang Yan running towards him wearing a straw hat.
Zhang Yan also hid in the shadows and took off his hat.
"I just passed by and thought the people here looked familiar. After a closer look, I realized I was right. It turns out that Brother Li lives here."
"Ah."
Bai Chao lowered his eyes and looked at the small tree, pouring water slowly from the kettle: "Did you go to work?"
"Yes, I took two missions and finished them early."
Zhang Yan was sweating profusely and kept fanning himself with his straw hat.
Bai Chao raised his hand and the water in the watering can was used up.
He put the kettle on the table beside him: "It must be very hard."
Zhang Yan scratched his head: "Haha, it's actually not that bad, it's just that the weather is a bit hot, otherwise I would have to complete at least ten tasks every day."
"Ten?"
"Yes! I want to earn more contribution points so that my family can live a better life."
"Ah."
Zhang Yan fanned for a while, with an embarrassed look on his face: "Um... Brother Li, is the potion you mentioned before really useful?"
Bai Chao glanced at him: "What's wrong?"
Zhang Yan waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, I just can't believe that there is such a magical thing. I heard them say that the prerequisite for having superpowers is to have qualifications in the body's genes. Without this qualification, there is no way..."
Bai Chao said calmly: "Everyone should be fair, and anyone can be qualified to have it."
"……what?"
"Your hopes should not be extravagant, and this is also what God does not want to see."
Zhang Yan was stunned. He didn't understand.
Bai Chao said slowly: "Many people have the same wish as you, don't they?"
"Yes……"
During the test of the superpowers that day, all the ordinary people watching had envious and longing looks in their eyes.
"Why do you want super powers?"
"for……"
"For yourself, for your family, or for the world?"
"I……"
“Only God can listen to your voice and fulfill your wishes. This world needs us to convey our mission and hope that all people will be better.”
Although the weather was hot, Zhang Yan felt an inexplicable chill on his back.
"Why not just forget it..." Zhang Yan backed out, "It's not that I don't trust Brother Li, it's just that..."
"Everyone in the shelter is well protected by the psychics, and we don't have any problems in our daily lives, so I..."
Bai Chao said calmly: "It doesn't matter. Everyone is free, and your choice is also free."
"…Thank you for your understanding, Brother Li."
Zhang Yan put his hat back on: "Brother Li, I'll be leaving first..."
"Ah."
When Zhang Yan was about to leave, the communicator in his pocket suddenly rang.
"Hello, Aunt? What?"
Zhang Yan's expression suddenly changed: "What happened to Xiao Shitou? Hello? Auntie?"
The signal on the communicator was bad and the other party hung up after just a few words.
Bai Chao looked at Zhang Yan: "What happened?"
Zhang Yan held the communicator in a panic: "Brother Li...something happened to my brother..."
"..."
Bai Chao narrowed his eyes slightly.
……
"Aunt! Where's Little Stone?!"
Zhang Yan pushed the door open in panic.
"Where's the candy?" Aunt spread out her hands.
"what?"
Zhang Yan was dumbfounded.
Seeing this, the aunt sighed and said, "You kid, I asked you to bring back some candy, but you didn't hear me at all."
"No...Aunt, didn't you say that something happened to Little Stone?"
"Huh? I think your ears need some treatment."
"……what?"
Zhang Yan was very nervous all the way. It turned out that he had heard it wrong. It was not his brother who was in trouble, but the puppy raised by his brother.
Because the younger brother kept crying and almost fainted, the aunt wanted Zhang Yan to buy some candy to comfort his brother. However, Zhang Yan didn't know what she was saying and thought that something had happened to his brother.
Auntie noticed the person behind Zhang Yan: "Who is this..."
Zhang Yan quickly stepped aside and introduced, "Aunt, this is Brother Li that I mentioned to you, the one who has a very good relationship with Captain Xiao."
My aunt suddenly realized, "Oh, hello, Mr. Li. I'm so sorry that Zhang Yan made such a blunder and made you go all the way here."
Bai Chao shook his head: "It's okay."
Zhang Yan finally came to his senses: "No, Auntie, when did we get a dog?"
They have a hard time supporting themselves, so how can they have the time to raise a dog?
The aunt said helplessly: "Your brother raised it secretly."
Zhang Yan's younger brother picked up the puppy from somewhere and raised it secretly without telling his family. However, the fragile little life could not adapt to the cruel environment of the end of the world, and the children did not know how to raise it, so death seemed to be an inevitable proposition.
At this time, Xiao Shitou ran out of the house with a stiff puppy in his arms. He cried as he ran, and his nose was full of snot bubbles.
“Wuwuwuwu, wow wow, brother… Xiao Hei won’t move… Wuwuwu, what should I do…”
Zhang Yan squatted down: "Xiao Shitou, when did you get a dog?"
The child couldn't explain it either: "Wuwuwu brother, please save it...save Xiao Hei..."
Zhang Yan took the little black dog over: "This...can't be saved..."
His body was stiff, there was no way he could be saved.
"Don't keep small animals secretly anymore. You haven't grown up yet. You can't even take care of yourself. How can you be responsible for other lives?"
In the end times, it is difficult to live.
The little stone cried and sobbed: "But it has no parents... I want to be its parent..."
Zhang Yan's hand tightened: "..."
The aunt turned her head and wiped the corners of her eyes, then turned around and greeted Bai Chao with a smile: "Mr. Li, please sit down first. I'll pour you a glass of water."
"no need."
Although Bai Chao refused, his aunt still went to the kitchen to get a cup and pour water.
Little Stone sniffed his nose: "Brother...can you give it some medicine? The teacher said that taking medicine can cure the disease..."
"small stone……"
"poor child."
"Brother Li?" Zhang Yan was stunned and raised his head.
