Xu Qian stiffened, how could he have the pocket watch?
A smile flashed in the man's dark eyes.
He strode up to her, holding up the exquisite pocket watch in his hand, and asked, "Do you want this?"
She nodded helplessly.
In her previous life, he didn't have a pocket watch, so how could he have one in this life?
Moreover, with his personality, he wouldn't give his belongings to a stranger...
"Here."
Xu Qian was stunned, was it that easy?
She took the pocket watch from his hand, and the system voice immediately sounded.
[Ding, side quest complete, Xia Luo Pocket Watch, auxiliary item, can adjust time, usable once a month, for one minute per use.]
[Ding, a new side quest has begun, please go to the Feiteng Base laboratory to find information, duration of 5 days.]
[Accept.]
She curved her lips slightly and said, "Thank you."
The man lowered his eyes, his gaze very gentle.
He gazed at the soft crown of her head and couldn't resist reaching out to ruffle it.
"No need to thank me."
Xu Qian's back tensed. This gesture, wasn't it what Jiang Huai loved most in his previous life?
He liked to pat her head and call her a child.
He didn't say another word, turned, and got back into the car.
Ye Yunzhou waved goodbye to her, the minivan started again and gradually drove away.
She shook her head. People's habits were immutable; it was probably a coincidence.
Xu Qian then cleared the zombies at the highway toll station and cleared the large bend leading out of the highway.
There weren't many vehicles or zombies on the bend, but there was a serious rear-end collision.
A truck had crashed into a car.
The car was already misshapen, and even the zombie driver was flattened.
She opened the back of the truck.
Xu Qian's eyes lit up. She could buy a lottery ticket today.
The truck bed was filled with boxes upon boxes of instant noodles, in every flavor imaginable.
With a thought, she put the instant noodles and the truck into her spatial storage.
Immediately after, a group of people caught up and cleared all the zombies outside the base gates, then erected a barrier.
The entire 3-kilometer direct highway to the base was cleared.
It took 3 hours.
Upon entering the base, the four of them, disregarding their appearances, collapsed onto the ground. They had killed so many zombies that their limbs were aching to the extreme, they didn't even want to move.
Cheng Liangze shouted, "Ah... great!"
Li Lili's eyebrows curved slightly, and she smiled.
"Are you that happy killing zombies?"
"What do you know? It's a sense of accomplishment! If survivors come to our Hope Base in the future, there will be one less danger."
Cheng Liangze sighed emotionally, "Yes, those who are alive must continue to live."
Gu Qing raised his arms, and water droplets fell on the few people.
The boy laughed heartily, got up, and ran.
"Gu Qing! Are you trying to give me a bath?"
Cheng Liangze immediately jumped up from the ground, shook the water droplets off himself, and chased after Gu Qing.
Xu Qian and Mei Yuebai exchanged glances and smiled at each other.
The boy leaned down and kissed the girl's pink lips, water droplets falling on their faces.
They kissed in the rain, completely unfazed.
The ultimate romance.
Cheng Liangqing's eyes darkened, and he turned and left.
Mission Hall.
Today's earnings were 1500 + 1000, totaling 2500. Divided among the six of them, it was about 400 points each.
Currently, their points were enough to upgrade to the intermediate floor, but Xu Qian felt it was better to save them and upgrade when they had accumulated more points.
When the base population grew, in about three months, there would be a point ranking board. The top ten would get to enter the base's villas.
With their team's ability, entering the villa district would be no problem.
In the afternoon, the mission hall wasn't too crowded. Most of the missions had already been taken. The remaining screens were static, with only a few left.
Xu Qian glanced casually, then narrowed her eyes slightly.
Collect car mission, 300 points per car (Note: The car must be in good condition).
