Chapter 16 Robert: Excuse me?
In the movie "I Am a Legend", there are only three humans in the world after the Doomsday.
One is virologist Robert Nefer, and the other two are a seemingly sibling combination.
Anna and Ethan.
Xin Sheng did not put down his hunting bow immediately, and carefully looked at the appearance and expressions of the two.
Anna looks like a typical European and American girl. Her face is not delicate, her whole body has a thick skeleton, and her body muscles are quite obvious. She obviously has received special exercises.
In this doomsday world that has experienced disasters, the weak and delicate girl cannot survive, and Anna's physique did not surprise Xin Sheng.
The little boy led by Anna is only about 10 years old, and his body shape looks no different from that of an ordinary child.
But some clues could be seen from his cautious look.
This child is much precocious than his peers in peacetime, and obviously has experienced a Shura field.
When I saw Xin Sheng, Anna and Ethan's expressions changed slightly.
There are surprises, but not as exaggerated as Robert.
Judging from their performance, these two people should have known for a long time that there are human survivors other than themselves in the world.
Xin Sheng glanced at Anna's raised right hand and gently kicked the rhubarb that grinned and warned and roared, so that it would stop intimidating the other party.
"Ms., please turn off the pistol's security and let your index finger leave the trigger, otherwise I will think you have an intention to attack me."
Xin Sheng had not studied guns carefully, but lived with Robert for more than ten days and still had basic common sense about guns.
Anna's pistol was safely opened, and her fingers were always placed in front of the trigger, as if she could shoot at any time. Of course, Xin Sheng could not relax her vigilance against her.
“Ok.”
Anna closed the insurance with kindness and used her two fingers to hold the pistol in a downward manner, expressing her kindness with practical actions.
In this world full of crisis, necessary vigilance should be available.
Xin Sheng would not be angry about Anna's alertness to him, but he also needs to be responsible for his own and Dahuang's lives.
Seeing Anna lifting her vigilance, Xin Sheng also put down his hunting bow with repaid.
Anna breathed a sigh of relief and led Ethan to approach Xin Sheng.
"Hello, I'm Anna, this is Ethan."
Anna asked Xin Sheng tentatively: "You don't look like the famous virologist Robert Never. We came here to ask for help after hearing his broadcast content."
Xin Sheng nodded and took the initiative to reach out to Anna to express kindness: "Hello, I am Xin Sheng, Robert's companion."
"Robert is in our base. What's the matter with him?"
Anna and Ethan looked at each other, saying by the older Anna: "We wanted to go to Bessel, Vermont to find the survivor camp, but we didn't have enough food and water, and we didn't have transportation, so..."
Xin Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly: "Survivor Camp? Bessel, Vermont?"
Xin Sheng is not a native of the United States and has no knowledge of Vermont.
However, the survivor camp mentioned by Anna aroused his interest.
‘If we can survive the raid of the Night Demon King and send Robert and Samantha away safely, their fate should have fundamental changes, right?’
A series of thoughts quickly passed through his mind, and Xin Sheng still looked calm on the surface.
"Well, Robert will decide whether to give you help, come with me."
...
While driving back to the base, Dahuang, who deliberately ran to the back seat, stared at the two of them instead of the driver.
Once they make suspicious moves, the ferocious hound will immediately bite the two of them.
Ethan was very curious about the big dog. If Anna hadn't stopped him repeatedly, he would have even wanted to touch Dahuang's golden hair.
Compared with Ethan, who is still a little ignorant, Anna has always been highly alert to Dahuang.
This big dog is definitely not the kind of pet dog that residents raise in peacetime. The wildness and pressure it shows make Anna dare not relax for a moment.
This is definitely a loyal beast that has seen blood. It takes only one order from the master to launch a fatal attack without hesitation.
Xin Sheng observed different performances of Anna and Ethan from the inverted viewing mirror, but he said nothing and let Dahuang monitor the two.
"arrive."
After locking in the car, Anna and Ethan were led by Xin Sheng to Robert's house.
"I'm sorry, you two, wait at the door first, I'll inform Robert now."
Anna looked down at An Anjingjing lying at the door and looked at her rhubarb, nodding in obediently.
It’s not that Xin Sheng doesn’t understand the way of hospitality.
In today's world, you must be more careful in everything.
Although Anna and Ethan looked very honest along the way, they knew people but not their hearts.
Who knows if they will have bad thoughts when they see Robert's family's extremely abundant resources.
"What?! Survivor?"
Most luxury houses in Europe and the United States are made of wooden structures, and stairs are no exception.
Anna and Ethan, who were waiting at the door, heard a hurrying "dongdong" sound from the house, as if someone was running down from the upper floor in a hurry.
"Crack~"
The door opened again, and the first thing that appeared in front of the two was a rather excited black face. Xin Sheng, whom he had seen before, stood behind him.
A German shepherd poked his head out from the black thigh, and his expression looked much more friendly than rhubarb.
"Uh~ Hello you guys."
After experiencing the excitement of the past when encountering Xin Sheng, Robert's emotions quickly restrained this time.
He shook hands with Anna with a smile on his face: "I am Robert Never, the broadcaster, let's talk about it first."
...
“Survivor Camp?”
Compared to Xin Sheng, who was very calm when he heard this name, Robert's reaction was a little intense.
He first showed an expression of disbelief, then fell into deep thought. After a while, he returned to calm and asked Anna calmly.
"Anna, it's not that I don't believe there are more survivors, but... where did you know the news? Where did you and Ethan come from? How did you spend more than two years?"
Xin Sheng had long told Robert about his origin. The mansion he had lived in for several months still stood across the Brooklyn Bridge. Robert could clearly confirm it through a telescope.
In contrast, Anna and Ethan were like they popped out of a crack in the stone.
Anna gave a relatively detailed explanation about this.
Before coming to New York, Anna and Ethan lived in Maryland, southern New York.
To be precise, they lived on a Red Cross rescue ship departing from St. Paul before the disaster.
The ship traveled and traveled to various coastal ports, looking for supplies from coastal port areas, and headed north from Brazil to the United States.
While searching for resources in Maryland, the expedition wearing a gas mask was attacked by the Night Devil.
In the end, only five lucky ones with antibodies survived the fleet of hundreds of people.
The other three were killed by Night Demons while heading north to New York. Anna and Ethan are the only two remaining rescue ships.
"Dr. Never..."
"Just call me Robert."
"Okay, Robert."
Anna took a deep breath: "I can be sure that Bessel has a survivor camp, so you and Xin will be transferred with us."
"There should be more complete experimental equipment there, and you can continue your own research."
"etc."
Robert, who was sleep-deprived, rubbed his eyebrows: "Anna, where did you know this news? The communication system is already done, broadcast?"
"No."
Anna's face showed a very pious expression. Xin Sheng, who had been watching silently, noticed that the little boy Ethan suddenly rolled his eyes, as if he disagreed with what Anna was about to say.
“It’s God.”
Scientist Robert was stunned: "Sorry, please say it again?"
Anna said slightly fanatical: "God told me this news, and He said there were camps established by survivors in Bessel, Vermont!"
