Chapter 241 Asteroid

Shan Nan raised his head and was speechless for a while, "No, don't think too much about it."

"You're just kidding, team leader, you always look unhappy. White Leopard Star makes you lose your smile." Ning Yi cupped his chin and looked at the young team leader, "By the way, it's your birthday, team leader."when?"

"In winter, when it snows, what about you?" Shannan asked habitually.

Ning Yi thought for a while and said: "I can't remember clearly, maybe...summer, maybe autumn, winter is okay, but I actually prefer spring, the season when everything revives, everything is full of hope...Hey,Team leader, why don’t you listen to me?”

Shannan felt that if Ning Yi was not a monster, a homeless asteroid facing the disintegration of the planet in the solar system, he would become a very interesting friend.

The sound of birds flapping their wings was heard overhead. Ning Yi raised his head first, and Shannan saw him raising his head before following him to look for the birds.

The sparrows stopped on the telephone poles, twisting their little heads and looking around.

Ning Yi changed his right hand to rest his chin and said lazily, "Nowadays, even a grain of rice dropped on the ground will be picked up. Birds are becoming less and less common in the city."

One of the sparrows staggered and fell to the ground.

Just as Shang Nan was about to pick up his chopsticks and start eating noodles again, a scream came from inside the noodle shop, followed by heart-wrenching crying, with his throat hanging, and his scalp tightening from the crying.

A girl in a floral skirt rushed out with a little girl in her arms, as desperate as a female animal walking on a strange road holding a sick and dead cub. She may have regarded the people at the observatory as her savior.

She held the child and knelt down at Ning Yi's feet. She held the little girl's pale face with trembling hands, "Save her. Aren't the people at your observatory specializing in this?"

Shannan lowered his head and saw clearly that the little girl was only seven or eight years old. She was as skinny as a stick. The radiation from the meteorite should have disappeared over time and was not even harmful to humans. However, the White Leopard Star was different.A swarm of meteorites came from all directions and directly surrounded Planet A.

Even if the meteorites don't fall, their radiation will slowly kill all living organisms on Planet A.

The little girl was in her mother's arms, with purple cracks running from her neck up to her chin, like wildly growing water plants or vines climbing up a stone wall.

Her limbs were twitching slightly, her breathing was obviously restricted, and dark blood came out of her mouth and nose.

Ning Yi rubbed his face to make himself look sympathetic, "I'm sorry, our specialty is not to treat diseases."

"Why don't they cure diseases?! Aren't these stones what you study every day? Why haven't you understood after decades of research? My daughter is only eight years old. She has never breathed a breath of fresh air. She has not even had clean river water.I've never seen it before!" She knew everything, she just needed someone to vent to. She hugged her daughter and wanted to rub that thin body into her own. She almost fell to the ground crying.

Shannan glanced at Ning Yi and stood up directly. He went to the car and dragged a large medical bag down. When he walked to the woman, he bent down and patted her on the shoulder, "Let me take a look for you.But there’s no guarantee it will be good.”

The woman raised her head in astonishment. Her face was covered with tears, and her cheeks were so thin that they were sunken. Even though she seemed to have lost moisture for a long time, she looked as dry as an old cucumber hanging in the sun.

But as a mother, she only shed more tears for her daughter.

Shang Nan took off a pair of clean gloves and put them on, and took out a new set of syringes. Following 14's instructions, he used needles to draw two milliliters of blood from several blood vessels of the girl. Holding the syringe in his hand, Shang NanI just feel that my palms are hot - normal people's blood is warm, how can they be hot?

The girl's breathing slowed down and was no longer as rapid as before.

Shang Nan injected her with another purification medicine provided by the observatory, and her complexion improved visibly.

Her mother was nervous and didn't dare to breathe. It wasn't until Shannan took off her gloves that she cried with joy, "Thank you, thank you..."

Shannan squatted on the ground. He stared at the girl's face for a while, frowned as if he couldn't bear it, and raised his eyes to look at her mother. "The improvement is only temporary. Children's resistance is not as good as that of adults. Their bodies have already been damaged."After being contaminated once, she will be weaker than before, and within three months at most, she will be in a more serious condition than this time."

That's why Ning Yi said that it couldn't be saved. No one could save the polluted human body.

"Then this medicine of yours..."

"It loses its effect the second time. It can only be used once."

The woman shed tears of despair.

Ning Yi drove the car, and they set off in the morning, but within six hours, it got dark.

After leaving the noodle shop, Ning Yi didn't speak.

In his mind, he always had the image of the team leader saving the little human girl. To be honest, he didn't pity the death of humans. The disasters they suffered had also been suffered by the life forms on the White Leopard Star, or even worse.

But the despair and pain shown when people are dying are extremely consistent.

It would be great if the team leader was a life form on the White Leopard Star.

An idea suddenly popped into Ning Yi's mind.

The team leader will definitely save the life forms on the White Leopard Star in an orderly and calm manner just like he saved this little girl.

But this idea quickly disappeared, and no one could save the White Leopard Star at that time.

"Team leader, let's find a place to sleep together."

After finally waiting for Ning Yi to speak, Shan Nan found that the other person started talking about what he didn't want to hear, "..."

Already far away from the capital, they were now closer to the West Market.

Darkness is not suitable for traveling. There will be various beasts that are short of food on the road. Hunger doubles their aggressiveness and bloodthirsty.

After finding a hotel that seemed clean and tidy, Ning Yi followed behind with a change of clothes. When the boss saw the guest, he was busy pressing the remote control to change channels without raising his eyes. "The room cards are all in that paper box.", I won’t register because I’m too lazy to log in. As for the money, you can give me some money, just don’t let me starve to death.”

Shan Nan paid one thousand according to the market price and chose a room on the second floor. If there was any danger, if he ran fast and was lucky enough, it would be okay to jump off the building.

The voice-activated light in the corridor turned on after Shan Nan coughed several times. Going upstairs and around the corner was the room where they would stay tonight.

Shang Nan opened the door with his room card, and Ning Yi's arm crossed over his shoulder and turned on the light. He smelled quite heavy of dust.

Before Shannan could speak, the communication device in his pocket rang.

"Then I'll take a shower first." Ning Yi put down the bag, took out his own change of clothes, and went to the bathroom.

Shang Nan answered the call.

It's from the West Market.

He and Ning Yi haven't arrived yet, but their jobs and tasks have already been arranged for them.

"Since you and Ning... Ning Yi are together, you will still be together when the time comes. The main purpose is to distribute relief medicines and supplies, and collect fragments of fallen meteorites by the way. Don't worry, we have processed those meteorites.It has been crushed and piled up at a specific location. We mainly need some data. You are from the capital, so you should be good at this."

Shang Nan hummed, "Everyone can do it."

There was silence in the communication device for a long time, and then he suddenly laughed a few times, "As expected of someone from the capital, crazy, pretty crazy."

Shang Nan's dissatisfaction had been building up for a long time. The Capital Observatory abandoned Ning Yi, who was blind in one eye, and exiled himself, who was starting to have physical problems. He went to Xishi to do the work that everyone could do.

Although he is a human and Ning Yi is not, Shang Nan still feels that he and Ning Yi in this world are actually the same kind of people.

Abandoned, exiled.

The bathroom door was opened, and the hot air inside suddenly surged out, blowing directly on Shannan's face. Although the water used for washing has been treated, it still has an unpleasant smell of disinfectant, which is different from ordinary water.The disinfectant water was extremely pungent and smelly, but it was fine after being diluted.

The chest area of Ning Yi's T-shirt was wet, and it stuck to his skin, outlining the shape of his muscles. This may be because the observatory's work is indispensable for both mental and physical strength, and his muscles are very beautiful and stylish.

He also took off the gauze on his left eye, and a dark eye socket appeared on his face, making his usually handsome and bright face suddenly become very strange.Especially when you're not smiling.

"Team leader, you are in a daze." Ning Yi stood next to Shannan, his right eyelid drooped, and the dark eye socket was lifeless, as if he was also staring at Shannan.

Shang Nan suddenly felt that the temperature around him had dropped. He threw the communication device on the bed and rubbed his arms twice. "Have you finished washing?"

Ning Yi handed over the gauze blindfold he was holding in his hand, "Tie it up for me, I can't tie it properly."

Shang Nan sat on the bed and hesitated for a moment, then reached out and took away the blindfold from the opponent's hand. He wanted to stand up and tie Ning Yi, but Ning Yi turned around, squatted down in front of him, and sat between his legs., as soon as Shannan lowered his head, he could see the top of Ning Yi's hair.

"Okay, team leader, you can tie me up."

The eyepatch in his hand was slightly hard. Shang Nan took out the strap, lifted the eyepatch with his fingers, tilted his head, and checked in front of Ning Yi's left eye. After confirming, he put the eyepatch on to block the eye.People looked at the empty eyes with panic in their hearts.

When the lid was put on, Shan Nan breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously.

Ning Yi blinked his right eye.

He lowered his head and exposed the back of his head to Shang Nan's field of vision, making it easier for him to tie it up. "Team leader, tighten it tight, otherwise it will fall off easily."

Shang Nan was tied up again.

"Team leader, tie me a beautiful bow." Ning Yi said again.

Shang Nan: "..."

While Shang Nan was trying to tie the straps together, Ning Yi opened up a section of Shang Nan's trouser leg. He originally wanted to see the team leader show something other than cold and noble expression, "Team leader, your ankle..."

There were already a few blue-purple cracks on the white ankles, which were not obvious. They were exactly the same as the cracks on the neck of the little girl at the door of the noodle shop during the day.

"Ning Yi." Shang Nan's tone was obviously annoyed.

Ning Yi lowered the corner of his mouth and pulled stiffly. He lowered Shang Nan's trouser legs and continued what he said before: "It's so white."

The author has something to say:

Ning Yi, don’t you want a beautiful bow?
