When they returned to the yard, both of them calmed down and restrained their real emotions behind as if nothing had happened.
But when Xia Min and Xia Liang walked into the yard, they obviously sensed that something was wrong with the group.
In everyone’s eyes, you can only see despair. Xia Liang even noticed some of them had watery eyes. Apparently they had cried.
"What happened?” Xia Min checked every member of the group and found no one was missing. He put down those supplies they got from the shop.
"Boss! We are screwed! We are so screwed!” Dong Jun stood up and screamed emotionally. He was trembling because of the huge pain in his broken leg.
"The army and the government are abandoning us! In two days, they will use a bomb, or maybe even a nuclear bomb to completely destroy S city. We are gonna die. We will all die!"
Xia Min frowned at the news but still asked calmly, “where did you get that information?”
"We found a radio. It’s why they said on the radio.” Dong Jun said, pointing to the radio on the table.
Xia Min stepped forward, turned on the radio. After a wave of noises, he heard the announcement that was given throughout the entire country.
"Given the situation that the terrible virus in S city is extremely contagious, most people are incurable and have turned into monsters. To prevent the virus from spreading further, we have blocked the entire city and decided to destroy it at 7am on the 12th.”
Even they had listened to the news before, they still couldn’t help trembling once they listened to it now. Despair and horror were spreading in their hearts.
"We’ve still got time! We’re leaving here early in the morning!” Xia Liang looked at the others and said, “cheer up. Anyway we have to make through tonight first.”
They just ate some instant noodles for dinner. Knowing that the city was about to be destroyed, they were not in the mood to cook at all.
It got darker and darker outside. Eventually it was completely dark.
The group was sitting in the guest room. They lit dozens of candles, making the room as bright as daytime.
They were depressed. No one spoke. No one slept. They sat there silently and empty-mindedly. The only voice in the room was the occasional crackle of candles burning.
Xia Liang stood up, went to the courtyard, and listened with all ears. She heard the sound of walking from outside and a deep hiss roar.
Monsters came out!
"Go back to sleep." Xia Min walked to her side and said with a deep tone.
Xia Liang turned to look at him but she couldn’t see his expression, and, of course, the strong affection in his eyes in the dark.
She shook her head and said, “I can’t sleep. You go to sleep first.”
Without saying more, Xia Min went back into the room and fetched two chairs and two blankets. He put them in the courtyard and sat down with her, guarding the place with her in silence.
Even in such a dangerous situation, Xia Min could still feel the peace in the heart having her around.
As long as she was there, he was satisfied.
The night flew by and soon it was early morning the next day. In a few hours, they would safely go through the night.
Bam!
Right at the moment, there was a loud bang on the door. It broke the quietness of the night.
Xia Liang and Xia Min were startled and got back on their feet at the same time. They exchanged eye contacts and read the same thought in each other’s eyes.
They came anyway!
Bam! Bam!bam!
The sound of smashing the door became louder and more intense, accompanied by low roars. Soon it could be seen a few dents on the iron door.
