Chapter 576: Don’t Talk About Right and Wrong with a Fool
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Du Yue listened to the curses of the people outside the courtyard. From the initial surprise, she slowly found it ridiculous. Ever since the apocalypse, Du Yue had seen a lot of unreasonable people. However, it was really rare to see people blatantly making false accusations.
This was the trick that the man in black behind them had taught them? What kind of method was this? As long as they were shameless, everyone in the world had to give in to them, huh? Du Yue found it extremely laughable and immediately burst out laughing.
After laughing, Du Yue said to Xia Ju and He Xing, “Let them be. Let’s go back.” Be it playing poker, watching shows, eating snacks, or even just staring blankly, it was still better than arguing with idiots here.
Xia Ju nodded repeatedly and said, “Let’s hurry up and go back. This bunch of people has really refreshed my understanding of idiots.”
He Xing did not follow the two of them back. “I’m going to increase the current of the power grid. You guys go back first. I’ll go to the workshop after I’m done.”
He Xing spent at least four to five hours in the workshop every day.
Du Yue did not mind and returned to the RV with Xia Ju. After returning to the RV, she closed the door. Most of the noise was isolated outside the door. Although she could still hear it a little, it was not to the point of disturbing them.
He Xing was usually very busy, and Xia Ju did not like to play chess. Du Yue had now completely mastered the skills of playing chess with herself. In the past, when she watched TV shows and saw people playing, she felt that they were simply too amazing. When she played by herself, she had to move, between both sides. She could not relax at all. If it was not a parent-child pair, one would not be able to experience this kind of fun.
Xia Ju stood at the side with nothing to do. She looked at Du Yue playing chess in boredom. “Are you that bored? What’s the point of playing chess with yourself every day?”
Du Yue replied without raising her head, “Of course, I’m bored. If I had other things to do, why would 1 play chess with myself?”
Xia Ju shrugged helplessly. “I really want to go out. 1 feel like I’m going crazy from staying in the courtyard every day.”
“What do you want to go out for? It’s always dark outside,” Du Yue asked with a puzzled expression. “Even if we really go out, there’s nothing to play with. There’s nothing beautiful to see either. What’s the point of going out?”
The endless gra.s.sland should have beautiful scenery, but in the current situation, there was nothing to see except darkness. It was even worse than the foggy period. At least, the sky would still be bright during that time. Now, it was as if the sun had completely disappeared.
Thinking of the sun, Du Yue put down the chess piece in her hand and turned to Xia Ju. “Have you ever been close to the sun?”
Xia Ju looked at Du Yue in confusion. “Why would I get close to the sun? I’m not crazy.”
From Xia Ju’s answer, Du Yue understood that even in the high-tech interstellar s.p.a.ce, people could not get close to the sun. For tens of thousands of years, the sun had been releasing its light and heat tirelessly. Why did it suddenly disappear? As Du Yue thought about it, she began to worry.
It was not until a long time later that she forced herself to stop thinking about it. It was not easy for her to pull herself out of her heavy mood.
Just as she calmed down, she heard the shouting outside again. Du Yue could not help but admire them. These people were really persistent. They could actually shout for so long. If they used their unyielding spirit to do some serious work, would it not be easy for them to solve the problem of food and clothing?
The group of people outside was determined to make Du Yue and the others walk out. They shouted for a few hours without stopping. In the end, they even made a bed outside the courtyard. It was obvious that they wanted to stay here for the night. Du Yue was too lazy to bother with them at first. When the three of them finished dinner and she saw that those people were still there, her face finally turned cold.
She understood what those people outside were planning. It was fine if they were noisy during the day, but it was almost time for rest, yet they were still shouting tirelessly outside. It was obvious that they did not want Du Yue and the others to sleep and were forcing them to go out and negotiate with them.
If Du Yue and the other two could not stand it and went out to negotiate with them, those people could make any request they wanted. Seeing through their little tricks, Du Yue sneered.. “Do they think we can’t do anything to them? Do they think we’ll obediently go out and negotiate with them?”
