Is the End Really Coming?

After hanging up the phone.

Zhou Qi paused, put down his phone, and walked forward silently along the road.

The wide road is full of traffic.

People come and go from time to time, or electric cars pass by.

Under the gloomy sky, the cool wind blows and blows the leaves rustling,

Zhou Qi glanced at the goose bumps on his arm, but didn't respond.

Whoops.

Not far away, several parked and crooked shared bicycles were blown down.

A young man who was scanning the code didn't even look at it, and rode on his unlocked car.

But he seemed to hesitate for a moment, and after two seconds, he got out of the car and helped up the fallen shared bicycles.

"…"

Zhou Qi crossed the other side without any hesitation, nor did he reach out to help him.

At this moment, there was an inexplicable meaning in his heart.

It was only after two phone calls.

Speaking of which,

In their family of four, he is the only one who can live long at the end of the day, and the other three always die soon...

And they have the same problem as Li Qing.

It's too easy to be emotional.

Let's not talk about the emotional mother and sister, let's talk about the calm and calm-looking father Zhou, and even he is very emotional. He is infected by particles every time, and soon turns into a monster...

So, after so many doomsdays, Zhou Qi has long had no feelings for them.

Um,

I can't say that I have no feelings, I should say that there is no "expectation".

If you don't inject expectations, you won't be afraid of disappointment.

And now, he is trying to dig out the hidden expectation.

Although, he didn't even know where he was buried...

"Om—"

Just then, the phone rang.

Zhou Qi took a look and noted that Xiner is cute.

It's his sister.

He chose to connect.

Before the phone was put in my ear, I heard an angry voice ringing: "Bastard Zhou Qi! Why didn't you call me! Why didn't you reply to my message! I heard from my mother that you called her, and the teacher was the first to tell her. Said to answer your call, but after waiting for a long time, you didn't even call me! You are too much, just treat your sister like this, ah I know... Love has disappeared, right? Woohoo, you have changed brother...you don't love me anymore..."

Zhou Qi unconsciously grinned when he heard the sweet and cute voice on the phone and the cute content.

"Love."

"Uh, ah, ah?" Zhou Xin was still acting, but she got stuck by the word Zhou Qi.

Zhou Qi said in a serious tone: "I said, you are my sister, of course I still love you."

"Hmph, hum..." Zhou Xin hummed twice, "You know each other..."

"The college entrance examination is coming soon." Zhou Qi asked casually after giving way to an electric car that honked its horn.

"Uh, why did you suddenly talk about such a serious topic?" Zhou Xin's tone weakened, but she still responded awkwardly, "There's still a week left."

"Okay, come on." Zhou Qi encouraged.

"Huh? That's it?" Zhou Xin's tone became dissatisfied again, and she began to yell, "too perfunctory", "can you chat", "my brother is a straight man" and so on …

But while she was talking, she burst into laughter without realizing it. Finally, she couldn't help but wonder, "Brother, have you really done meritorious service to the country?"

"Um."

"What's going on? Can you talk to me about it?"

"Wait until I go back."

"Zhou Qi!" The other end of the phone was not happy again.

Zhou Qi wondered, "What's wrong?"

"...Hey, I'm mad at me!" Zhou Xin sounded very angry, "You're so annoying... You're stupid!"

"Where are you stupid?"

"It's stupid! You...you say it! Sister Li Qing obviously likes you, but did you forget that she said she didn't fall in love before graduating from college? You still have to confess to her, and blame others for rejecting you! You are so stupid. !"

"That's it."

"Hmph, you still have to rely on me, your smart and lovely sister, who helped you settle those things and taught that Lin Rui a lesson... Why don't you thank me quickly?"

"..." Zhou Qi stopped, "Lessons?"

"He, he... um," Zhou Xin realized that she had slipped the tongue, so she could only say with a guilty conscience: "He wanted to harass Sister Li Qing again, and even scolded me, and I beat him..."

"Are you all right? Did you tell your parents?"

"No... I didn't dare to say... But, but, I was settled by Sister Li Qing. Speaking of which, I didn't even know that Sister Li Qing was so powerful! What she said to Lin Rui's parents was very cruel, but they treated Sister Li Qing with respect..."

Speaking of this, Zhou Xin's tone suddenly pretended to be mature: "Brother, my sister has already paved the way for you. You must catch up with Sister Li Qing. In this case, our brothers and sisters will enjoy happiness in the future..."

"..." Zhou Qi didn't say a word, just continued walking.

During my one-day stay at the police station, a lot of things seem to have happened.

On the phone, Zhou Xin was still talking.

Said about how anxious their family was yesterday because of Zhou Qi's incident, then talked about what happened after they came to Zhonghai University, and how powerful Professor Su was, and what happened today after going back...

But after talking for a long time, I finally realized that something was wrong, so I asked, "Brother, are you listening?"

"Well, I'm listening." Zhou Qi responded, but suddenly heaved a deep breath: "Xin Er, I miss you."

"Huh?" The other end of the phone suddenly got stuck again.

Maybe it's because Zhou Qi's tone was serious this time.

The atmosphere suddenly became heavier.

After a long time,

Zhou Xincai asked cautiously, "Brother, what's the matter with you?"

Zhou Qi responded calmly: "It's nothing, okay, that's it, I'll go back before your college entrance examination, and I'll see you later if you have anything to do."

"..." The other end of the phone didn't answer immediately, just made a low sound.

At this time, Zhou Qi heard that someone on the other end of the phone seemed to be calling Zhou Xin.

It seems to be her classmate.

Then, Zhou Xin responded, "Come on!",

Zhou Qi heard that her voice trembled a little...

Then, she hurriedly said, "Brother, I'm hanging up, and the teacher told me to go back."

"…it is good."

The phone hangs up.

Zhou Qi casually glanced at the screen,

During this time, the mobile phone has received some new information.

But he didn't click in, but silently put away his phone and continued to walk forward.

…

This walk is more than two hours.

Unconsciously, Zhou Qi crossed nearly ten kilometers from the West District Public Security Bureau and came to Mingyan Lake, a marked landmark in the north-central part of Zhonghai.

And set foot on the bridge where people come and go.

When he reached the middle of the bridge, he stopped.

The wind blows from time to time, and the leaves rattle.

There are noisy traffic in the distance.

He leaned on the edge of the guardrail, and fell into contemplation while looking at the constantly surging water.

In fact, the reason he wanted to "stay alone for a while" was to take a look everywhere, to finally confirm whether the doomsday had come or not.

But after watching it for so long, he suddenly felt meaningless.

The key point of everything lies in the time when the doomsday comes. Before that time, he can use thousands of ways to verify it and go crazy unscrupulously, because everything he does has a strong reason.

But now, that time has passed, and the end has not come.

He has no reason.

"Don't think about it, maybe, the existence that created the doomsday game just happened to fix this bug..."

Zhou Qi muttered while holding his chin.

At this time, he suddenly felt his insignificance in the ordinary society.

The whole world is just right in front of you, no matter how you look at it, there is nothing unusual about it.

Everything he felt was normal, and his heart was very peaceful because of this.

But there was something wrong with him.

If it weren't for the memories in his brain still vivid in his mind, and the "anchors" responding to various environments did not respond abnormally, he would suspect that he had fallen into some kind of unseen fantasy area.

But…

But he didn't know what to do.

Although he and Director Liu and other officials have emphasized that the doomsday is not necessarily not coming, it may be in a different form.

He also provided an additional set of policies to change the national quality, just in case.

Everyone said that it must be taken seriously.

However, Zhou Qi knew that no one would rest assured.

Even he himself didn't want to care.

At this moment,

A whole day has passed since that critical time point. He has already developed a disgust for everything about the "doomsday". He really wants to take the apocalypse away from himself and quickly return to ordinary life.

Just like what he thought in the police station before, he wanted to relax and find his feelings back...

But the few phone calls just now made him realize that he couldn't even say nice things to the people around him, and he even had to think about what tone to use and what words would be more suitable...

"Well... Maybe, it will take a while to get used to..."

Zhou Qi let out a long sigh.

The sky is getting darker.

The time was approaching evening again, and the sunset was struggling to pass through the gray clouds, dyeing the horizon a faint orange red.

This is the second day after the "doomsday" did not come,

he…

I don't know what the future will be like.
