"Miss, in short, I have to thank you for saving my life, and then... Can you tell me who you are and why you are here?"
Finally he was able to sit down and rest. John, who was already very tired, didn't really want to speak again. But since he was rescued and taken away by the mysterious girl in front of him in the ruins of the urban area, he had already held back his stomach. At this time, he had a chance. He really couldn't help it.
However, just because John knows very well that none of the people who can appear in this disaster area will be weak. Even more exaggerated, I'm afraid none of them are normal people.
Knowing that the other party obviously didn't like to talk, even if he was full of questions, he only dared to pick something that didn't seem sensitive and test it slowly.
"Who am I?"
Under the tree, the hooded grey robed girl held the faint light in one hand, so she leaned against the trunk of the dead tree and gently stirred the brilliance with her other hand. Hearing John's voice, her head seemed to tilt slightly, but she couldn't see her expression. She didn't know what she was thinking after a pause.
A few seconds later, the girl slowly replied:
"I'm not sure who I am... Oh, if you ask me my name, you can call me 'white night'. Then, 'Why are you here'... I just follow the instructions of 'eldest sister'."
"Big sister"? John's eyes flashed. "Do you really have other companions? Where? London?"
"'london '?" the girl teased guangtuan's left hand and stopped slightly, "well, it seems that it was called this name before -"
She didn't go on. She just seemed to think of something and kept silent again. It can be seen that she was not very interested in talking to John.
When John saw her talking, he began to be alone again. He also hesitated for a moment. Then he couldn't help asking:
"Can I ask how many people are still in your stronghold? Well, you know, there are dangers everywhere. Most of the residents either died or withdrew from Britain early... Before us, many people have tried to set foot on this land, but as far as I know, none of them can go back alive... Are they all there?"
One of the purposes of John and his team in Britain is to explore the specific situation in this forbidden area. Now that he has a person to ask, how can he continue to hold back?
Unfortunately, at least this question, he really asked the wrong person.
"I don't know what you said," the girl shook her head. "I just 'woke up' in the city. I can't remember anything before... I haven't been out since then. This time I came here, it's my first time out. As for how many people in the city, I haven't counted, and most of them don't know... Maybe... There are still a lot of them?"
Somehow, after listening to the mysterious girl say more words, John slowly felt that the other party had a sense of deja vu - not because he realized that he might know the other party, but just the feeling when talking to the other party, as if he had felt the same atmosphere in another person in the past.
He frowned secretly. After putting aside the strange feeling for the time being, John continued:
"Well... Can you tell me about the 'eldest sister' you just mentioned?"
John can probably feel that this may be the last question he can ask in this conversation. Because he soon found that the mysterious girl, regardless of her strength, was obviously not clear in her mind, or even a little confused. Even if he continues to ask, he will probably only make himself equally confused because he has obtained too much specious information.
As for the last question, at least the other party is obviously familiar with it. Maybe we can hear something from her answer.
On the other hand, the girl listened to John asking about "eldest sister", and finally got some spirit. Even her voice became a little higher than just now.
"Eldest sister is the wisest one among us. She takes good care of us. If we ask her any questions in the past, we can get reliable answers. Eldest sister is very kind to me. Knowing that I don't have enough ability and am prone to danger, she hasn't sent me to perform any dangerous tasks. This time, it's also confirmed that it's safe here. In addition, there are sudden accidents When there was a battle and the manpower was suddenly insufficient, I was asked to come to you. "
Safe? If it's really safe, will it suddenly become just yourself? John deeply disagreed with the girl's words, which made him doubt the reliability of the other party's answers.
Of course, he was not questioning the honesty of the girl in front of him, but further found that the other party did not have a reliable judgment.
John, who felt that some of his efforts had been wasted, was frustrated and stopped talking, so he suddenly became quiet and desolate under the bare dead tree.
As time went on, it became darker and darker. The salutes John brought before he came were lost because of the first battle. At this time, he sat in a coma. Although he felt a little cold, he could only tighten his not too thick suit, shrug his shoulders and shrink his arms.
The girl leaning on the tree trunk was still standing, as if she could not feel the growing cold between heaven and earth, and she was not tired at all. And... John felt that she seemed to have been used to the loneliness of being in the wilderness and darkness, and was not half uncomfortable with the approaching shadow around her.
In any case, this is an unusual girl. The vigilance in John's heart tends to rise instead of falling with the increase of time with each other.
Of course, there may be other factors that the other party always wears the gray robe and doesn't show his face once. But since he had never thought of taking off his hood, it was not easy for him to take the initiative to mention it.
John didn't actually have a good rest that night. It was impossible to sleep in the dark environment where there seemed to be danger everywhere. He could only sit on the withered grass, endure the cold at night, look around the darkness vigilantly, and reluctantly recover his strength.
It was not until an obscure glimmer reappeared in the east to disperse the darkness filled with heaven and earth for a while that he realized that the first night of the British disaster area, which was somewhat difficult to adhere to, was finally safely spent.
"Fortunately, nothing happened, and I'm still alive."
John sat there looking at the light in the East and muttered so.
