Campfire Shelter

Opening the door, the neighborhood committee lady rushed in cursing with an anxious look on her face.

"It's been so long and you're still dragging your feet, so hold on tight."

As the aunt said, she pushed Colin's wheelchair and rushed out, quickly came to the fire escape, and ran directly through the chute next to the stairs.

There were other people nearby who helped to hold him up so that he wouldn't go too fast.

But even if I had a firm grip, I almost lost my wheelchair several times.

"You guys are quite into the drama"

Colin felt the wheelchair move quickly across the stairs, his eyelids jumped wildly, and he almost fell out several times.

Although with his current physique, he would be fine even if he jumped from the fifth floor, the drift in the stairwell made him hold his breath and dare not exhale.

Fortunately, he lived on the sixth floor, which was not very high. After a few turns, he arrived at the first floor.

Then, Colin pushed Kuangbiao to the park.

At this moment, a large number of people have gathered in the park, but everyone is discussing this novel exercise with a playful smile, obviously not taking it seriously.

It can be said that as long as they are not in the ICU or unable to get out of the hospital bed, everyone who can participate has participated.

Of course, the most important thing is that you can get paid to fish by participating in this exercise.

At this time, Colin's heart skipped a beat and he felt a group of people approaching with steady steps, wearing black uniforms, and clearly different from the others.

Just when Colin was wondering if he had been exposed, he saw this group of people passing by him and heading in another direction...

Looking along the direction of their movements, Colin saw someone seemed to be arguing there.

Obviously, not everyone is willing to participate in the protection drill. However, when they still fail to cooperate after three warnings, they are put on the head and put into a car and sent to another place.

Without looking further, Colin looked away from the people who were being pushed into the police car.

Then, he turned his eyes slightly, looked over the crowd, and raised his head slightly.

"The more people there are, the thicker it seems. I don't feel anything about this 'thread' connecting it. I don't feel what it draws from me, nor do I feel what I gain. What's the point of doing so?" usefulness?"

Colin thought, very strange about the purpose of this thing.

He knew that this thing was not simple and must have been created by the relevant departments, but he didn't know what it was used for.

But looking at it this way, the authorities do have some amazing means.

The only thing that can make Colin breathe a sigh of relief is that he seems to have not been discovered by the authorities now.

"It seems like this thing can't read people's memories or anything like that. Otherwise, the neighborhood committee aunt who just knocked on the door and asked me to participate in the drama should have switched to sending warmth to the community."

Colin grunted in his heart, and then, with the push of the neighborhood committee aunt, he was placed in an area for the "old, weak, sick and disabled".

In addition to him, there are many people here who are in wheelchairs or cannot take care of themselves.

Looking at these people here, Colin suddenly felt a little guilty, because the "old, weak, sick and disabled" area was obviously much more spacious and cooler than other places.

At this time, a volunteer handed over a bottle of mineral water. Colin took it and thanked him, but did not open it. Then he heard the volunteer ask kindly: "Do you need my help to unscrew it? Uh? What? It's you"

Colin looked sideways, oh, what a coincidence, wasn't this the girl who wanted to help him cross the threshold not long ago.

The girl with the "Volunteer" armband on her arm widened her eyes, as if to say, are your legs not feeling well?

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward

"伱"

"I have ALS."

Colin told the truth and lifted up his pants to reveal his thin calves.

Although he is now taking three genetic compensation pills, his body has not recovered so quickly after suffering from ALS for a year, so that he still looks a little thin now.

Of course, if he really takes action, he can sprint for two thousand meters without even taking a breath.

"Sorry, I thought"

The girl scratched her head and changed the subject with an awkward expression: "Do you want me to help open the bottle cap?"

"Need not."

Colin opened the water and took a sip. After the other party left, he shook his head, feeling an indescribable strange feeling in his heart.

Then, with a weak sense of guilt, I sat there until about four o'clock, when the exercise finally ended.

"In the next month, there will be a drill every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday. The time remains the same. Everyone is mentally prepared."

At the entrance of the park, loudspeakers broadcast the upcoming earthquake drill plan over and over again.

Colin returned to his room with the "help" of the girl from before - the aunt from the neighborhood committee originally came to help, but when she saw the girl coming over on her own initiative, the aunt got out of the way with a look on her face.

"Building B, 604? When the time comes for the drill, I'll help you. I'm really embarrassed today."

"It's okay, thank you."

Colin waved his hand and closed the door with a bang. After the people left, he gently pressed the back of his fingers on the armrest of the wheelchair, as if thinking.

"There should be nothing wrong with the person. There is no malice or specialness. He should not be an employee of other companies. In terms of external performance, I can't detect any problems. Or are you just a good person?"

If today's topic ended with unscrewing the bottle cap, Colin might not have many thoughts. At most, he would sigh that he hadn't met such a kind-hearted and enthusiastic person for a long time.

But it got closer later.

He suddenly became wary and suspected that the other party had bad intentions.

The "dark forest" law in the company, and the recent incident of "showing his face" made him somewhat sensitive, and he couldn't help but doubt her behavior.

After all, in Colin's view, even company employees with official backgrounds are not necessarily very safe.

If he still says nothing when he has nothing, the key is that he is now in a state of "presuming the crime".

Just the two pieces of equipment, "Time Stasis" and "Revolver Retrograde", are enough to make some people jealous enough to do things not according to the rules.

"I only have F-level authority now, and I don't have enough hard power. If I were to be discovered, many high-value items on me would probably be stolen."

"For others, being stripped naked is nothing more than a decadence, but for me, it is fatal. After all, I still have so many high-risk tasks."

"And they definitely won't want to see me doing advent projects with something of such 'significant value'"

Colin felt a bit like he was fighting against the air, but after thinking about the possible consequences, he felt that he could not be too vigilant.

But, thinking about what happened today, I still didn’t find much in the end.

"Forget it, make some traps in the room, think about how to escape, and just be careful. You won't kill people because of this kind of thing, right?"

Colin let out a breath and did not continue to think deeply, because if he continued to think about it, it would be an endless chain of suspicion.
