Chapter 331: The Running Boy (Part 1)

Yang Wanli stood on Chen Yuan's left side, and Shen Jingyuan and Jiang Lian stood on Chen Yuan's right side.

They looked in the direction pointed by Li Qiluo one after another, and their faces showed frightened expressions.

Shen Jingyuan gently covered her mouth and whispered, "Is that a human corpse......

"It seems to be. ”

Jiang Lian responded, and then looked at Chen Yuan solemnly, "Do you want to go over and have a look?"

Chen Yuan looked around, and on the entire coastline, there was not half a living person or zombie in sight. He exhaled and said, "Let's go and see, maybe there will be some clues." ”

He took the shotgun in his hand and exchanged glances with Yang Wanli.

Yang Wanli nodded, "Let's go." ”

The five of them slowly walked forward. As the distance gradually closes, the scene in front of me becomes clearer.

Li Qiluo's brows furrowed, and he seemed to be scared.

"Really...... It's all human corpses......"

Her voice trembled slightly.

Shen Jingyuan was also a little scared, she subconsciously leaned closer to Chen Yuan's side, grabbing Chen Yuan's arm with one hand. She gave a quick glance, then bowed her head slightly to the other side.

"Here...... How can there be so many corpses?"

Jiang Lian was the most courageous of the three women, she basically didn't see any fear, and she always observed the situation in front of her very calmly.

Chen Yuan patted Shen Jingyuan's hand lightly, "You stay and wait, I'll take a closer look at Brother Wan." ”

"Well, good. ”

Chen Yuan and Yang Wanli cautiously walked to the side of a corpse and looked down.

"Is this a human or a zombie?"

"Feels more like a human being?"

Jiang Lian followed from behind, squatting next to the corpse and scanning it carefully.

"I didn't see any obvious bites except for the decomposing parts of the body, so the chances of being a person should be quite high. ”

Chen Yuan and Yang Wanli nodded one after another.

Jiang Lian stood up and walked around these corpses, she continued: "These corpses don't seem to have the same degree of decay, they shouldn't have died here at the same time. ”

Chen Yuan touched his chin, "It's not just a bite, there doesn't seem to be any obvious external injury, so how did these people die? Just like you said, it's very likely that they didn't die at the same time." So ......"

He also took a few steps forward, his gaze moving back and forth over the corpses, "Did they come here at the same time, and then die one after another?" or ...... These people were transported here after they died?"

Jiang Lian shook her head, "I don't know, but I think they're more like they've been transported over." ”

When he first discovered these corpses, Chen Yuan was really worried that he would find Tong Xia and them among them. But fortunately, it wasn't like that, and he didn't know any of these people. After rejecting the idea, his mind began to expand in the other direction.

He raised his hand and grabbed his hair, and he couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart. Thinking of the Science and Technology Building and the laboratory in the park, he hesitated and said, "It can't be related to any experiment, right?"

Jiang Lian replied calmly, "There is indeed such a possibility. ”

Yang Wanli stood on the other side, staring down at the corpses in front of him, "Although these corpses have already decomposed, I looked at several in a row just now, and they can basically find traces of pinholes on their bodies." ”

He tilted his head slightly, and pushed the corpse's neck with the barrel of his gun, faintly, a little dark mark could be seen, "And they all seem to have similar marks on their bodies." ”

Chen Yuan and Jiang Lian examined the corpse in front of them, and the situation was indeed the same as what Yang Wanli said.

"It's weird......"

Chen Yuan stood up, sighed and scratched his neck to look at Shen Jingyuan.

The result was very abrupt, he saw that there was a short figure behind Shen Jingyuan and Li Qiluo on the left.

Chen Yuan was obviously stunned for a moment, then looked at the figure vigilantly, and slowly walked over there.

Noticing Chen Yuan's reaction, Shen Jingyuan and Li Qiluo turned around and glanced back, and then they were startled by the short figure that suddenly appeared.

Li Qiluo gently patted his chest.

"Whew...... Scared the hell out of me, that's ...... A little kid?"

"Well, how could he suddenly appear here alone?"

"That's right......"

Not far ahead, under a crooked parasol, an unkempt child was standing on the pole. He was dressed in ill-fitting clothes and was dirty all over his body. Only those big eyes, clear as water, looked straight over here, and seemed to be scrutinizing them.

Shen Jingyuan and Li Qiluo adjusted their expressions and tried to show a kind smile.

They were about to say something to him, but he suddenly turned back and ran.

"Hey, kids!"

Shen Jingyuan screamed eagerly.

Chen Yuan rushed over from the other side, "You guys wait for me here, I'll chase him!"

After saying a word in a hurry, Chen Yuan rushed towards the figure of the child.

Shen Jingyuan shouted at his back, "Be careful!"

Because the beach was sloping, they were now on the side near the sea, so soon, Chen Yuan and the child's figures all disappeared above the beach.

Yang Wanli and Jiang Lian rushed back to them with blank expressions.

"What's going on?"

Yang Wanli asked urgently.

Shen Jingyuan and Li Qiluo also seemed a little inexplicable.

"We saw a child just now. ”

Li Qiluo pointed towards the sun umbrella, "Before I could talk to him, he suddenly ran away, and Chen Yuan also saw him, and then chased after him." ”

"Little children?"

Yang Wanli felt a little strange.

Jiang Lian looked at the sun umbrella and asked softly, "Is there only one child?"

"Hmm. ”

Li Qiluo nodded, "I wonder too, how can there be only one child here, maybe there are other people in other places, right?"

"Possibly. ”

Yang Wanli looked around, "The sea is too windy in this place, let's walk on the beach." Let's see if we can find a place to shelter from the wind, and we'll wait for Chen Yuan to come back there. ”

"Good. ”

……

Ran after the child's back.

Chen Yuan couldn't help but be secretly frightened.

In fact, from the first time he saw this little guy, he faintly felt a little strange.

In such a place, it should be difficult for a small child who looks to be only about ten years old to survive on his own. Especially since there were so many rotting corpses here, but Chen Yuan didn't see the slightest fear in his eyes. On the contrary, he seemed to be a little curious about them.

Are there really other survivors here?

Even if he lived with nearby survivors, it shouldn't have been possible to send him out to investigate.

All sorts of images weave through my mind.

Tech Building, other kinds of zombies, a laboratory in the park, corpses by the sea......

All the information was connected together, and Chen Yuan felt more and more that the child in front of him was very likely to have something to do with these corpses on the beach.

It stands to reason that a child of this young age simply does not have the physical strength to run such a long distance, and the speed is much faster than that of most adults.

In this way, there must be a big problem with this child.

In a quick run, they had crossed the Corniche.

In front of it is an old-fashioned residential house with only one or two floors, and most of the houses have plaques hanging on the outside of the seafood barbecue, but there is no one.

After chasing the child into this area, Chen Yuan was obviously not as familiar with the terrain here as the child, and as there were more and more forks in the road, Chen Yuan still lost it.

sighed helplessly, although he didn't catch up with the child, but he was more curious about the child. Since the zombies appeared, he had met everyone involved in the experiment, either dead or turned into zombies. But just now this child, he should still be a living person.

Perhaps, Chen Yuan can learn some things through him that he has never known.

He straightened up, scratching his hair and looking around.

The child's figure was never seen again, and the whole narrow street was empty, except for the sound of the wind blowing against his ears.
