C253 alumni (1/2)
Seeing my frightened look, Lu Yu sighed and said, ”What are you afraid of? I am a human, not a ghost, and I am not a zombie. Since we are all alumni, we should stick together. ”
I straightforwardly told him the truth. ”I say, Brother Lu, do you know the current year?”
Lu Yu replied, ”I know. It's September 1994 and the school just started not long ago.”
I was completely powerless. ”Let's put it this way. I'm 20 years younger than you. You're probably my alumni, but the age between us is really too far apart.”
Lu Yu opened his mouth wide, ”It can't be that strange. Although I'm not good at studying, I'm not an idiot. Are you trying to trick me?”
I helplessly said, ”Big brother, look at yourself and then look at me. What reason do I have to lie to you?” Do you have money? I see that you are even poorer than I am. Do you have any color? You are not a beauty, what is there to deceive a master? ”
Lu Yu nodded his head and said: ”That's true, but your words are just too inconceivable. Since there's a difference of twenty years between us, how could we have run into each other?”
I could only ask, ”Only God knows about it. That's right, have you ever met anyone else in this building?”
Lu Yu said: ”No, it's already good enough that I can find a place to hide. Where can I go to find someone? But when I heard the cry for help from outside, I didn't dare to go out at all. I also sent out the cry like I did when I was looking for you, but those people didn't believe me, so they all died. ”
I suddenly thought of something and asked, ”What method did you use to transmit the voice to my ears?” And you're still saying that you're not a ghost, how can a human have that kind of ability. ”
Lu Yu took out a palm-sized apparatus, and said, ”This thing is called a sound transmission device, and it can transmit sound to a radius of one kilometer. I invented it myself. Do you believe me this time?”
I nodded. ”I do. But have you really found anyone else?”
Lu Yu shook his head and said: ”I really don't have one. If I had someone else accompanying me, at least I wouldn't be so lonely. ”Ai, it's great that you're here. Can you have a good chat with me?”
I waved my hand and said, ”You really haven't made much progress in your life. Rather than staying here and muddling along, why don't you try your best to break through? Maybe you'll have a chance to escape?”
Lu Yu bitterly smiled and said, ”What you said was easy. In this chaotic world, it's already good enough that you didn't become a walking corpse. You still hope to escape, stop dreaming.”
I shook my head. ”What you said is wrong. Don't stop if you can walk a step further. Look at the environment you're in. To put it bluntly, it's just a nest. It's not a problem to live on while breathing. But is that a person's goal?”
Lu Yu said, ”Then let me ask you, even if we managed to escape, it would be in the era you lived in. The air is much better than here. Is it easier to live than here?”
I was stunned before I replied smilingly, ”That's not true. In fact, the haze in the real world is quite heavy. People are tired from living and the price of the house is so high that they can't even breathe. But it's still much better than here.”
Lu Yu sighed, shook his head and said, ”That can't be, I don't think it's much better than this place.”
I said embarrassedly, ”No matter what, it's still much better than here. At the very least, in the real world, there aren't so many living corpses eating around.”
Lu Yu sighed, ”Actually, there are. It's just that you didn't notice it.”
I didn't want to continue talking nonsense with him, so I asked, ”Do you have any way of escaping? Since you have stayed here for a period of time, you should at least come up with a plan, right? ”
