Chapter 30 Human Nature(1/2)



After a delay of nearly five minutes, the matter was finally explained clearly.

Wen Lei interrupted in various ways, bragging about Ren Zhong's amazing talent, while Zheng Tian's eyes lit up as she listened.

"Really, Wen Lei, you don't care about Brother Ren. How can you do this for the first time in practice? It's a life-threatening situation. If I had known better, I wouldn't have let you practice with Brother Ren."

But secretly happy, after listening to this, Zheng Tian still complained loudly.

"I tried to persuade you! You can't persuade me! Can you blame me?"

Wen Lei continued to argue aggrievedly.

"I blame you, I blame you, I blame you!"

While Zheng Tian was talking, she was pinching Wen Lei's shoulder gently and not too hard.

"Just say a few words. Wen Lei, please put me down. I feel almost ready to leave. I'll go to the bathroom by myself."

Ren Zhong interrupted the bickering between the two.

Wen Lei seemed to like the feeling of being able to communicate easily with the captain.

But Ren Zhong smelled an indescribable chill from this seemingly harmonious atmosphere.

Wen Lei carefully put down the task.

The moment he landed, Ren Zhong's legs felt weak and he almost sat down on the ground.

Zheng Tian, ​​with quick eyes and quick hands, inserted herself from the side, took Ren Zhong's arm, and supported him.

Then she said: "Okay, Wen Lei, you go get some snacks, and I'll take Brother Ren to the bathroom. He can hardly stand now, so don't fall again."

Ren Zhong said politely: "Sorry to trouble you."

"No trouble, no trouble, that's right. Brother Ren, a great thinker like you, is now the darling of our team. If you get hurt or touch me, it will make me feel bad."

Zheng Tian held on to Ren Zhong's arms tightly, her chest close to hers.

Although her figure is petite and not plump, she can still clearly feel the bumps on Ren Zhong's arms.

At this moment, he really didn't have any strength, he couldn't stand firmly, and it was inconvenient to break free, so that was all.

He also thought that perhaps in this precarious world, the distinction between men and women was not so important, so to point it out deliberately would seem out of place.

Entering the bathroom, Zheng Tian supported the person with one hand and took the shower head with the other, saying: "The conditions are limited and there is no bathtub. Brother Ren, please make do with it."

Ren Zhong leaned against the wall and waved his hands, "It's okay. I don't like using the bathtub either. It's a waste of water and time."

Zheng Tian hummed intentionally or unintentionally, slowly raised her head, and looked at Ren Zhong with an expression that seemed plain but was actually looking forward to something.

"Brother Ren, the floor will be a little slippery when it gets wet, and you're not in a good condition right now. How about I help you wash it?"

Ren Zhong's heart skipped a beat and he frowned secretly.

He looked directly at Zheng Tian's baby face from close range.

Her expression was very casual, as if she was just talking about something as common as eating, drinking, and having sex, but there was something hidden deep in her eyes.

She was very good at disguise, but the capillaries on her face betrayed her gradually accelerating heartbeat.

His face was flushed.

Ren Zhong: "No need, I won't make your clothes wet."

Zheng Tian: "It's okay, can I just take it off too?"

Although Ren Zhong has never been in love, he is not stupid.

He sensed something was wrong.

"Thank you Zheng Tian for your kindness, but it's really not necessary. I can handle it myself."

He refused firmly.

Zheng Tian didn't bother, but continued to nod naively, "Well, then I'll stay outside. Brother Ren, call me if you need anything."

"Thank you."



Outside the bathroom door, a haze flashed across Zheng Tian's face.

She lightly clenched her fists.

Although Brother Ren is very easy-going, at the critical moment, he still shows an attitude of rejecting others.

Not only was he a census officer, he was also very ambitious, self-disciplined, and very picky.

He looked down upon his current status as a desolate person.

I have to work harder.

I want to! Go up! Climb!



After taking a bath, Ren Zhong also went to the courtyard to sit and rest.

Zheng Tian gave him the beach chair and let him lie back comfortably.

There is also a cup of hot plain tea on the small table next to the beach chair.

This is what Zheng Tian asked outside when Ren Zhong was taking a shower just now.

Next to the plain tea is a stack of small desserts.

On the wall painted white on one side of the courtyard, a projector is playing pictures.

This projector is also Wen Lei's "work". It came from a garbage dump. The effect is much worse than Sun Miao's high-end products, but it can barely be seen, and it still has a hazy aesthetic.

What is projected at this time is a well-made movie.

It tells the story of a humble desert man walking in the wild who was rescued by a passing girl when he was dying. Afterwards, the young desert man continued to work hard to leapfrog challenges, kill a large number of beasts, and finally became a noble citizen and succeeded.

He settled in a prosperous city and successfully married the girl who saved him back then, the daughter of the company president. This is a beautiful story of a fruitful career and love.

The story is as beautiful as a dream you can never wake up from.

The plot was very vulgar, but everyone watched it with gusto.

While watching the movie, Zheng Tian's eyes calmly drifted to Ren Zhong many times.

Only Ren Zhong found it "shocking".

In the movie, he once again saw the headquarters city of Shenxun Group.

This paradise-like dream city is like a carrot tied in front of a sheep's head, always dangling in front of the desolate people.

This carrot seduced the desolate people who were obviously stuck in the quagmire and couldn't extricate themselves, and ran blindly towards the city that they could almost always only see in their dreams, but which was separated by a huge chasm.

Wasn't this natural chasm blocking the road set up by you?

It gives people endless hope but ruthlessly extinguishes it.

How sad!

How hateful!



"By the way, Wen Lei said you plan to buy a new car for the team?"

After the movie finally ended, Ren Zhong asked Zheng Tian seemingly casually.

Zheng Tian chuckled, took out a remote control from her pocket as if offering a treasure, and asked Ou Youning to take out a stack of information books from the backpack next to her.

"Yes! It's a good thing! A complete vehicle produced by the Yuanxing Military Industry Group, the Benlei multifunctional tank! Second-level armament! 90% new! The original price is 900 points, and I happen to be the captain of the team that wants to eliminate this vehicle.

Familiar, I’ll take six hundred! It’s going to take away all the money we’ve saved for a long time! But it’s worth saving three hundred! Hehehehe, I’m good, right?”

Ren Zhong briefly looked at the information booklet.

He didn't know the specific parameters very well, but from the basic description, it can be seen that the performance of this car is indeed good.

After getting it, Zheng Tian's team was able to switch from shotgun to cannon.

However, the Benlei truck is slightly smaller and less square than the previous assembled container trucks, and the space for people to sit in it is smaller. It can only be said that there are gains and losses.

Put down the information easily.

He didn't even ask why the team didn't each get a formal watch since they had 600 in savings.

The reason is actually very simple.

Compared with a rented watch, except for the Internet function, the daily income of a formal watch is only 0.9 more, and it will take 112 days to pay back the money.

But with this car, the team can go to more places that they couldn't go before, and they can clear out the beasts at a faster speed. They can even forcefully break through the blockade of some second- and third-level beasts, and enter a place where a large number of first-level beasts appear densely.

The "rich mining area", its income will definitely far exceed that of a watch.

As for information online?

Zheng Tian is a native of Xinghuo Town, as are others.
