Doomsday Carnival: The Little Monster Only Has a Seven-Second Memory

The black van discreetly departed and quickly disappeared at the intersection.

Huo Ling silently memorized the license plate number.

When Luo Na and the others saw Lin Shuangshuang come down, they couldn't help but go up to greet her.

"Shuang'er! How are you? She didn't give you any trouble, did she? What are you holding in your hand?"

"Shuangshuang, are you alright?"

"Are you alright?"

Lin Shuangshuang looked at the concern in their eyes and smiled. "It's okay. They didn't make things difficult for me. They just said a few things to me. I don't have to worry about being taken back now. I'm completely free now."

She looked at Huo Ling as she spoke.

Huo Ling glanced at her. "What are you holding? Did she give it to you?"

Lin Shuangshuang picked it up to show them, "It smells good, it must be a small cake."

She looked down.

I want to open it.

Lorna quickly said, "No, no, no, let's melt it later."

Lin Shuangshuang nodded and put the cake away. "We'll eat it when we get back."

She remembered that her account was usable, so she immediately logged in to check. She was quite surprised to find that she had three million points.

Over six years, this salary plus bonus is indeed quite substantial.

She immediately gave her teammates some pocket money, and then gave Huo Ling a big one, saying, "My salary and bonuses have been converted into points, so I'll share some with you guys too."

The three of them, Lorna and Shuang'er, kept exclaiming, "Really? Shuang'er, how can you be so kind?! Waaah?!" "Thank you, Sister Shuangshuang!" "Thank you, thank you."

They could go in and shop again, and after saying that, they headed straight for the exchange center.

Huo Ling raised an eyebrow.

Lin Shuangshuang went to hug her with a smile; the little monster seemed to be in a very good mood.

Huo Ling hugged her, letting her rub her curly hair against his chest. "So happy?"

Lin Shuangshuang hummed in agreement and shared her joy with him, "The instructor said I'm completely free now, and from now on I belong only to myself." She was indeed very happy.

Huo Ling raised his hand and touched the back of her head. "Yes, you've always belonged only to yourself."

Lin Shuangshuang smiled and said, "No, I still belong to you. I am yours, and you are mine."

Huo Ling countered, "Really? Do I belong to you?"

Lin Shuangshuang looked up at him, a little angry, "Of course, you can only be mine."

The little monster's possessiveness exploded.

Huo Ling smiled then, lowered his head and kissed her, "Yes, I've got it."

Lin Shuangshuang couldn't help but smile. Her heart was bubbling with joy, as if she were drunk and dizzy.

"Go ahead and buy it. I'll give you all my points; you can buy whatever you want."

She was very arrogant.

Huo Ling looked at the three million points and felt a strange mix of emotions. Six years, and all she got were three million points, not even enough for a day's income for her company back then, but for six years she risked her life for.

His feelings were complicated, and he felt very sorry for her, with so many injuries on her body.

But I'm also proud of her.

This is her medal of honor.

Overall, the A City base is a pretty good place. The underground city is incredibly luxurious, truly giving you the feeling of a new underground world.

But it's still fake after all. However, in this post-apocalyptic world, having a paradise is a blessing in disguise. Let's just hope it can hold on.

They also returned with a full load this time.

Gao Lei drove the tank away from the underground city, shouting "Have a safe journey!" at each checkpoint.

Wu Zhe turned to look at the entrance to the underground city, then at the scorching heat outside. "I'm starting to feel a little disoriented. Do you think that years from now, children born in the underground city will have no idea what the outside world is like?"

Lorna was examining the newly purchased supplies, sipping her milk tea. "Possibly, it depends on how we educate them. If we frequently broadcast videos from the ground, or show them documentaries, they should be able to learn."

Wu Zhe seemed to be deep in thought. "Then the children of the future will be underground people, and we people on the surface will become old relics, become history."

Lorna chewed on her pearls and continued, "Yes, but every second of our past is history. However, if this continues, a few generations from now, how we view dinosaurs will be how they view us. Isn't that also a form of mass extinction?"

Although they are all evolving, many creatures are dying, and the environment is deteriorating further. Nobody knows what will eventually become of them.

Huo Ling calmly said, "Humans without superpowers are now called ancient humans."

Lin Shuangshuang was very surprised.

These are somewhat heavy topics.

Especially after leaving the underground city of City A with its comfortable temperature, returning to the surface of the Nine Suns, and then leaving City A with its protective shield to return to the real purgatory, the stark difference in levels is enough to make one feel despair.

The real world is outside the base.

It was a temperature of seventy degrees Celsius, a time of fierce battles between all living things.

Lin Shuangshuang didn't even dare to think about how many people would die if the base collapsed. The base seemed very safe, but in fact it was in grave danger.

Huo Ling said that there was no point in worrying about these things, and that they should focus on living their lives well first.

They returned to the little castle with heavy hearts. The third and fourth children were already waiting at the door, with refreshing drinks prepared. Seeing that each of them had a cup of milk tea, they started grumbling about how drinking milk tea was unhealthy.

Lorna and the other two laughed and said they only drink occasionally, "We had a great time this time!"

Lin Shuangshuang remembered Zhao Pingsheng and took the initiative to say that she wanted to go find Zhao Pingsheng.

Huo Ling respected her a lot. Seeing that she seemed to want to have a private chat, he told her to go upstairs by herself, "Go take a shower first, otherwise his germaphobia will drive him crazy."

He offered a kind reminder.

Lin Shuangshuang nodded, immediately went upstairs to take a shower, and then changed into her home clothes before going up to the third floor.

Zhao Pingsheng already knew Lin Shuangshuang wanted to see him, so he ended his experiment early, took some time to pour her a cup of tea, and asked gently, "What's wrong?"

Lin Shuangshuang raised her question, "So, was there any follow-up to the drug information you anonymously provided to the authorities?"

Zhao Pingsheng understood and said seriously, "So that's what it is. There has been a reply. The officials have started to study it, but perhaps due to genetic reasons, the reaction of each humanoid weapon is different, and the effect is not as good as yours."

Lin Shuangshuang was stunned.

Zhao Pingsheng said it was a pity, but genes are a complex thing, especially the genes of humanoid weapons, which are forcibly modified and very dangerous. Any mistake could easily lead to mutations.

"But don't be discouraged. I will continue this research, and the authorities have not stopped either. They have shared a lot of useful information with me. We will definitely find common ground in the future and formulate a drug that can be used by all humanoid weapons. No one will abandon you."

Although Zhao Pingsheng's attitude towards Huo Ling was "bad" (suspected to be PTSD), he was always very gentle and reassuring towards Lin Shuangshuang.

Lin Shuangshuang nodded obediently, "Thank you, Dr. Zhao, you've worked hard."

She quietly served her a cup of milk tea and a cake.

Zhao Pingsheng asked in surprise, "Where did this come from? I haven't seen this thing in a long time."

Lin Shuangshuang said with a smile, "It was bought from the base in City A."

Zhao Pingsheng accepted it with a smile, "Thank you, Shuang'er. Oh, by the way, remember to close the door when you leave, and also tell Huo Ling not to bother me."

He politely declined the offer to bother him, saying, "Don't even think about bothering me unless it's something important!"
