Help, I've become a paper man

Chapter 478 Construction

Ying Rushi did not reject Song Yi's request, but suggested: "We can study together after we return to the camp."

After all, when Stardust get along with each other, even if there are emotional impulses and it develops to the point of physical contact, it is unlikely that there will be casualties.

At least it gives everyone time to stop it in time.

But according to Song Yi's idea, Stardust and humans can coexist, so Stardust's control over emotions needs to be further improved.

Song Yi did not refuse, and they immediately reached a consensus and decided to return to the camp to discuss it.

But...if the road hadn't looked more and more familiar and he hadn't been heading straight to the place where he set out, Song Yi would have almost believed that Ying Ru really wanted to cooperate with him.

"This is not the way home!" Song Yi protested loudly, holding onto the car window, trying to look out again.

Yang Qi hugged his neck and dragged him back, not forgetting to remind him: "This is the way home. The village we used to live in has been destroyed. Even if we want to rest, we need a place to stay."

Song Yi didn't say anything. He followed the other party's force and got back into the car. He looked at Ying Rushi and asked:

"Are you going to give me to Yan Changyue?"

If he remembered correctly, the place they were heading to now belonged to Yan Changyue in the beginning, and it was only after the cooperation that Chen Xing moved here.

Whose home are they returning to?

Ying Rushi replied: "Don't be too nervous. We came back by ourselves, not with Yan Changyue and the others."

Song Yi said: "Thank you for your comfort. According to you, as long as we don't go home together, even if we live together, we are not considered an alliance, right?"

His tone of complaint was obvious, and laughter broke out as soon as he finished speaking. This group of stardust was extremely cooperative, and they managed to turn the stiff atmosphere into one of playfulness.

Ying Rushi's serious expression could no longer be pretended, so she smiled as well, and stopped teasing Song Yi. She said honestly:

"We will not abandon you. Everyone in Dust Star is our family. None of us will give up on you. The reason we chose to come back is because..."

"Yan Changyue will not come back. You know very well that with his financial resources, he will live in hardship during our cooperation."

Those stardust, the barely-evoked happiness, quickly dissipated in this passage.

Because what Ying Ru said was all true. Yan Changyue had money and resources, and was famous for saving, protecting and helping people, but he did not support them.

After resolving Purgatory, Yan Changyue was dizzy, so he came back again, contributing resources and effort, but living a hard life.

Song Yi nodded in affirmation in silence, and the car returned to silence. A few minutes later, it stopped at a familiar location where they had just started not long ago.

Everyone in the car got off in an orderly manner, their movements lightly and quickly, but the traces of the battle on this land had not yet completely disappeared.

The noise they made attracted attention as they approached, and the people who were temporarily living here were now quietly approaching.

Everyone was able to enter successfully without any fighting first, all because of their reputation, and some people even knew them, so they can be considered... the heroes who solved Purgatory's problem?

However, after they left, there were new owners here and they wanted to move in again. Everyone naturally welcomed them, but the issue of housing became a new topic.

Song Yi does not have the domineering air that allows him to convince everyone with just a wave of his hand. However, when this livelihood issue comes to the fore, it makes him dizzy.

The good news is that they were not forced to leave and choose a new residence, and the housing problem was successfully resolved.

However, the person who showed up surprised Song Yi. It was Zhigui. To be more precise, it was... the new Zhigui.

She changed her previous shyness and solved the problem calmly and decisively.

Song Yi saw a familiar look in her. She was very similar to Zhigui. It could also be said that Zhigui and his friends... were probably all very similar.

As soon as this thought came to his mind, Song Yi suppressed it. He didn't want to mention it, nor did he dare to think about it too much.

In short, the result of the negotiation was that Chen Xing could stay in the camp, but their previous residence was already occupied, so everyone needed to rebuild it.

In addition, if there is any danger again, they also need to take on the defensive work.

“Of course, if this ever happens, we will also be responsible for the food,” the camp leader added.

Ying Rushi wanted to say more, but Zhigui had no objection and agreed first.

After the negotiation is concluded and the crowd disperses, they should start looking for materials and prepare to rebuild.

"There is no place to live in case of emergency. Even if we hurry today, we won't be able to find a house in time. It's really too rushed."

"Zhigui" responded with a smile, but turned around and urged everyone to move, asking those who were now free to park their cars first.

In the previous conversation, the residential area had already been agreed upon. Everyone knew the location and had no objections. As for the rest of the people, they also followed her instructions and went about looking for materials on their own initiative.

Everyone dispersed immediately, and only Song Yi and the two of them remained. "Zhigui" looked at Ying Rushi and said:

“Now that the weather is warm, we can park our cars, build the houses around them first during the day, and move in next to them at night.”

"It'll only take a few days. There are still some building wreckage outside the camp. We can use it... It doesn't need to be very good, just a place to keep out the wind and rain. It's not that difficult."

She stated each item one by one, without any jokes, but her words were well-reasoned. Song Yi admired her sincerely and felt that this person, who usually did not show up, suddenly became the boss in a very capable manner.

Ying Rushi lowered his body, shortened the distance between them, looked at each other, and asked seriously:

"What about you? What about other humans? Can you adapt to the environment?"

After a moment of hesitation, Zhigui followed this passage and said seriously while thinking:

"I'm sorry, it's my mistake. I was in a hurry and just wanted to settle it first, so I ignored everyone's needs..."

Ying Rushi shook his head and explained, "You are not familiar with it yet. It's not your fault. You can take your time and don't rush. However, no matter what the situation is, you must remember to protect yourself."

"Only if the 'boss' is alive can we protect more stardust and ensure everyone's rights."

"Zhigui" nodded in agreement, and their conversation ended. They began to join in the construction. Although Song Yi understood, more doubts also arose.

He felt that Ying Rushi's words, besides comforting, had other meanings. After Zhigui left, Song Yi asked Ying Rushi in a deliberately joking tone:

"The more I think about it, the more I feel something is wrong. Do you have a secret and want to secretly trick me? What do you mean by 'As long as the boss is alive, more stardust can be protected'?"

"Aren't Stardust better at fighting than humans? Aren't they more capable of survival?"

"Just now you were worried about the human body, that it couldn't handle the harsh environment or sleep in the open air, so why are you saying something like this again?"

The key point is that "Zhigui" looked calm, as if he knew the inside story and was used to it.
