Chapter 8

整个上午过去了,黄明和刘双儿不是坐在沙发上看新闻,就是在手机上刷各种群聊.黄明偶尔站起来向窗外看,观察外面的情况.今天早上的消息有所不同.当局不再只是鼓励人们坚持等待救援.相反,他们敦促当地社区组织自己的救援工作.每个人都需要团结起来,保持纪律,共同努力才能生存.校园外的情况似乎更糟.当局可能没有资源来拯救更多的幸存者.黄明不禁纳闷,外面的世界现在是什么样子.武装部队是否仍在运作,还是都被感染了?科学家们是否正在研究僵尸病毒的疫苗?问题如洪流般填满了他的脑海,不肯消散.在那一刻,黄明站在窗边,陷入了沉思.突然,几架战斗机在他的视线范围内划过天空.还没等他反应过来,一枚导弹就从高处飞了出来,击中了地面.他的瞳孔收缩得针刺,震耳欲聋的爆炸震撼了整个城市.一个巨大的火球喷发而出,火焰冲天而起,仿佛要吞噬整个城市.即使隔着这么远的距离,黄明也能感觉到隔着建筑的震动,仿佛身临其境.细小的鹅卵石,像沙粒一样,砸在窗户玻璃上,证明了冲击波的绝对力量.黄明整个人都在颤抖.尽管拥有空间能力,但人类在如此强大的破坏力面前仍然微不足道.这让他深思: *"外面一定发生了什么大事..."* *"如果他们像这样不分青红皂白地打击,我需要开始规划逃跑路线吗?"* *"想想就很可怕.如果那枚导弹落在学校附近,我现在已经死了.但现在是我出去找新住处的时候吗?*黄明感到迷茫,不知道该怎么办.他意识到他需要几个聪明人来讨论这些问题.显然,刘双儿只是一个医生.与她谈论这些事情不会产生任何批判性的见解.在他思考的时候,双儿还在为刚刚发生的事情感到震惊."哦,我的上帝!这把我吓死了!那是爆炸还是地震?她的胸膛随着每一次呼吸而起伏,她的神经紧张不安.黄明忍不住偷偷看了几眼."几架战斗机投下了一枚导弹.如果我没记错的话,它降落在澎湖区的边缘附近."导弹?如果那东西错过了,我们都会死的!双儿拍了拍她的胸膛,仍然明显地颤抖着.她的脚趾微微蜷缩,这是她挥之不去的焦虑的标志.黄明看了看时间——已经是中午了.他向双儿挥了挥手."好吧,如果它错过了,我们就很不走运了.该吃午饭了.他从自己的空间维度中拉出一桌满满的食物:鱼香龙虾,雪蛙红烧花胶,甜椒炒鱿鱼,拼盘红烧肉,银杏花肉汤.双儿闻到沙发上的香气,急忙跑到餐桌前.她睁大了眼睛,享受着这场盛宴."黄明,我在做梦吗?"午餐好吃吗?甚至在这一切之前,我也不敢这样吃东西!她朝他眨了眨眼,捏了捏她的手臂,确保她不是在做梦.黄明早就预料到了这种反应.他有很多资源,但她的震惊可能会持续一段时间.她最终会习惯的."什么,不符合你的口味吗?如果你不吃东西,我就不用你开始.见双儿还冻着,黄明开始吃起来.食物最好是热吃;它冷了就失去了味道."Who... who said it's not to my taste? I just feel like I'm dreaming!" Shuang'er quickly sat down, picked up her chopsticks, and grabbed a piece of lobster. "Well, you'll be dreaming like this every day because this is how we'll eat from now on." "Eating delicacies every day can get boring. It's nice to switch things up sometimes." "Fine, next time you cook. I'll provide the ingredients." Shuang'er nodded obediently. "Just don't complain if it's not good." Huang Ming pulled out a bottle of 1982 red wine from his spatial dimension and poured a glass for Shuang'er. As they enjoyed their luxurious lunch, the group chat exploded again. Wang Gang was excited: 

"Did you guys see that? There was a huge explosion in the distance. I bet they took out a horde of zombies. Something big must've happened!" 

Ma Tao complained: 

"No kidding! That noise woke me up from a dream where I was feasting. Ruined my meal!" 

Zhou Ting worried: 

"What if they drop one near us? The whole school would be wiped out!" 

"How shameless! They don't care about us at all. It's been so long, and they still haven't sent troops to rescue us!" Wang Xue chimed in, clearly on the verge of a breakdown. "Rescue? Rescue my ass! The rescue teams are probably struggling to survive themselves. Stop daydreaming!" Ji Dayong cursed angrily. Huang Ming and Shuang'er watched the chat with amusement, their meal becoming even more enjoyable. In this bleak apocalypse, people needed some form of entertainment, or life would be too dull. After the meal, Shuang'er got up to clean the dishes, but Huang Ming stopped her. He poured her another glass of wine. Shuang'er took the glass, sipped it, and looked at Huang Ming curiously, unsure of his intentions. She had already had several glasses, and her cheeks were flushed, her breathing heavy, her body temperature rising. "Liu Shuang'er, I believe you're a smart woman. There's no such thing as a free lunch. You've seen what I'm capable of. I don't need to spell it out for you, do I?" "Mm... I understand." Shuang'er raised her glass and downed it in one go. She hiccuped, a trickle of red wine spilling from the corner of her mouth. Then, she stood up and slowly removed her robe. Shuang'er was a smart woman. This made things easier, saving Huang Ming the trouble of explaining further. If it had been Gao Weiwei, she'd have played hard to get, crying and making a scene. At this moment, Huang Ming laid his cards on the table. He had been holding back for almost a month since his rebirth, and it was time to release all that pent-up tension. With a burning gaze, Huang Ming walked toward Shuang'er, picked her up in a princess carry, and carried her to his room.
