Chapter 25 Pool Party

Afterwards, the police officer invited everyone to go to the police station to make a statement, but Tang Mingcheng and his team politely declined on the grounds that they had urgent matters to attend to. However, many enthusiastic citizens at the scene offered to go along to make the statement, so the police officer had to give up.

Before leaving, the little girl ran over and hugged Li Luo, then raised her head and said to Li Luo:

"Sister, my name is Bai Ke'er, can I know your name?"

"Li Luo."

"Sister Li Luo, will we meet again?"

"maybe."

At this time, Li Luo didn't know that her momentary kindness changed Bai Ke'er's fate. From then on, a strong man was born. At the same time, she also offended a tough enemy because of this incident, but that's a story for later.

As the police car drove away, the crowd gradually dispersed. After enduring for a long time, Xinxin said loudly to the backs of those busybodies who had just left:

"Some people are stupid and like to follow the crowd. They have no judgment of their own. They just believe whatever others say and even dare to criticize others. They don't feel ashamed."

Those people probably felt guilty and pretended not to hear anything even though they heard it. However, from the way they walked as they left, one could see their panic.

After such an incident and wasting so much time, the group no longer had the desire to continue shopping, so they just bought some snacks and prepared to go home.

Back in the car, Li Luo expressed her opinion on what had just happened. She looked at everyone with a hint of deep meaning and said:

"After the end of the world, human nature will become very complicated. Actually, I didn't want to meddle in other people's business today, but I didn't want to disappoint everyone. I also thought deeply about saving that girl, but I hope that after the end of the world, everyone will know one truth: "In troubled times, kill the saint first." Some people are worth saving, and some are not. We must have our own judgment and must not be too sympathetic."

Kindness is good, but kindness without edge is stupidity. After experiencing the aftermath of the apocalypse, Li Luo has grown from an ignorant little girl to a sharp-edged woman. She doesn't want to be a good person, nor a bad person. She just wants to be an ordinary person with a clear position. She hopes that the people around her can be the same as her.

After hearing Li Luo's words, everyone nodded and began to think silently in their hearts.

After all, people who have not experienced the end of the world cannot imagine how terrible human nature is in the end of the world. However, they can also understand that even in prosperous times, people die for money and birds die for food. There are also many places with wars and darkness. It is only because they live on this land and it is managed in an orderly manner that the country is peaceful and the people are safe.

Seeing the horribly depressing atmosphere in the car, Li Luo felt a little guilty, wondering if he had passed on too much negative energy, and quickly spoke to comfort them:

"Everyone, don't be too pessimistic. As long as our family is fine, that's enough! There are still more than two months before the end of the world! Enjoying the present is the most important thing! Let's go home quickly and have a pool party today!"

The three elders couldn't help but smile and nodded after hearing this, knowing that the child was doing this to comfort them. In order not to go against her wishes, they suppressed their pessimistic emotions and agreed with a smile.

Only when Xinxin was really happy, her bad mood instantly disappeared. It was a pool party! She had never participated in one before! At most, she went to a public swimming pool to play.

In fact, she had always wanted to go to the swimming pool after entering the space, but due to the situation, she never had the chance. Moreover, although she was Li Luo's good friend, the better they were, the more they had to be careful. The space belonged to Li Luo, so she would only go if Li Luo asked her to. When she heard Li Luo say that he was going to have a pool party, she opened her eyes wide with "little stars" and said to Li Luo excitedly:

"Wow! Really? Really? Lolo, are we really going to have a pool party?"

"Really? Why would I lie to you? We've been tired for so many days, let's relax~"

Just like that, the group returned with laughter and joy just like when they came.

We returned to the warehouse, closed the door, and everyone entered the space together.

Li Luo took out the swimsuits he had bought earlier and distributed them to everyone, asking them to change. He also took out various snacks, drinks, and alcoholic beverages from the warehouse, put the snacks he had just bought into the food workshop to generate a menu, and then put them out and placed them on an insulation board to keep them warm. Finally, he turned on the space's built-in music function and played special party songs.

After she had prepared all this, everyone had already changed into their swimsuits and came over. Seeing how Li Luo had dressed up the poolside and made it look really real, everyone's mood became high. Li Luo told everyone to have fun first while she went to change into their swimsuits.

When she came out after changing, she found that everyone was still waiting for her, so she quickly ran to everyone and announced the official start of the first pool party!

Everyone was eating, playing and drinking and having a great time. Even Potato was running around the swimming pool excitedly.

The three elders were sitting and chatting by the swimming pool downstairs. Li Luo took Shi Xinxin to the terrace on the top floor of the villa. The two entered the small infinity pool. Li Luo looked at Shi Xinxin and said to her with a smile:

"Xinxin, let's go diving and see whose splash is the smallest! Let Uncle Tang be our referee!"

"Okay, I won the diving championship in our elementary school grade group. How dare you compete with me? If you lose, don't say I bullied you~"

"Hahahaha, that happened so many years ago, how dare you bring it up!"

From the roof came the sound of two girls laughing and playing.

The atmosphere of the whole villa is relaxed and pleasant.

After relaxing her tense nerves, Li Luo couldn't help but think that she seemed to have neglected a very important issue—mental health.

The end of the world has driven many people crazy. Why have so many distorted human natures occurred? The root cause is that people have developed serious mental illnesses. There is no other way. Human beings cannot even solve the problem of food and clothing, so who would care about mental health? Just like that, no matter whether it is normal or not, everything is abnormal.

In their previous life, Li Luo's family also suffered from anxiety disorders to varying degrees, but because the three of them were together and still had hope for life, their psychological problems were not too serious.

However, because of the distortion of human nature, the destruction of her family, the betrayal of her teammates, and the final zombie swarm, Li Luo inevitably had some psychological problems. Even after she came back, she always had nightmares, so her spirit was always tense. Only now that her family and friends are around her, she has gradually healed. But she still inadvertently brought negative energy to the people around her.

Seeing how happy they were at this moment, she realized that mental health is also very important. There is nothing wrong in wanting them to grow up urgently, but she was a little anxious.

At this moment, Li Luo just wants to work harder to become stronger, to protect them while keeping their smiles.

Soon, the party came to an end, and everyone raised their glasses and held them together.

"Cheers to a prosperous age!"
