Chapter 256: Apocalypse of the Living Dead (31)
The narrow interrogation room, the tempered "cage", the dim lighting, the high narrow bed made it impossible for sunlight to penetrate, and the monitoring was precisely on Xiao Lan's every move, and the confinement on her body made her unable to move freely. After maintaining the position for a long time, she relaxed her body slightly with heavy restraints on her hands and feet, but it also put pressure on the interrogator.
"Let me ask again, do you know her?" the interrogator repeated the entire conversation.
"Recognize. Xiao Lan glanced up at him, nodded, and pretended to answer meekly.
"Do you know where she's going?" The repetitive question made Xiao Lan's emotions unable to stir up any waves.
On the basis of the original seat, she changed her position and replied flatly: "I don't know." ”
"Okay, please explain that you two ...... when you first arrived last night" As the interrogation was about to end, he finally raised a sensitive question.
Last night, Feng Qi suddenly burst out and left, and everyone who knew about this incident felt a little fantastical and incredible, and their hearts finally appeared with due defense and awe for the supernatural. This directly led to the further restriction of Xiao Lan's own movements, with shackles and mobile positioning on his body and feet, and two heavily armed guards at all times. It's not disgusting, but it still makes her feel a little inconvenient, after all, even eating and drinking have to be under the noses of others, and it's a little uncomfortable.
"I don't understand. She really didn't know Feng Qi's true thoughts and feelings, and she didn't care.
As the interrogation drew to a close, the interrogator seemed to have received a new message, and his expression became confused and solemn. Just as Xiao Lan was silently observing, the door of the room opened like this, and an elderly man walked in from outside the door.
He was dressed in black and showed simplicity, with gray hair, his hands behind his backs, and his low-key and steady pace made people can't help but focus on him, and the interrogators who knew his identity obviously didn't dare to take a breath. The old thick eyes covered his eagle-sharp eyes, and his half-squinting and half-smiling eyes were aimed at Xiao Lan.
"Hello. A friendly greeting is like caring for a junior, "I'm Zhang Dingguo." "The General Head of the Province of the South-Eastern Region, the Temporary General Head of the entire Security Zone.
"Hello......" Xiao Lan's expression finally changed, "Mr. Zhang." ”
"Your name is Laneige, I also have a niece and granddaughter as old as you, if you want, you can call me uncle, Mr. Zhang is unfamiliar. Zhang Dingguo's smiling expression was very kind, it was easy to make people feel good, and his next words were also full of understanding, "I heard that I came here alone with my family." You are a very brave little girl, and at the same time cooperate with the research of experts, and you are also very sensible. ”
His words were moving, and he considered it completely from Laneige's point of view, but Xiao Lan didn't intend to appreciate it.
"You have taken my family. The implication is that the equivalent substitution should be deserved, Xiao Lan does not want to be labeled as righteous.
In the face of Xiao Lan's indifferent response, Zhang Dingguo's expression and words did not change in the slightest, he had expected it and turned a blind eye, and continued to ask: "You know another little girl, right?"
"Stranger, just know her name. ”
Zhang Dingguo's answer to Xiao Lan finally changed, and he blurted out directly: "She's afraid of you." "Maybe for Xiao Lan's state of not eating soft and hard, it is the best way directly.
"Because I'm better than her. Xiao Lan's flat tone was not proud, just stating the facts.
"That's good...... Suppose, we can protect your family, in exchange, are you willing to do things for us?" Perhaps, this is the fundamental purpose of his visit to Xiao Lan.
At this moment, Xiao Lan didn't agree immediately, but just stared at Zhang Dingguo's eyes and became serious......
The interrogation room was dark and indistinguishable, and beyond that, after a few days of rain, the whole damp and gloomy environment finally ushered in a ray of sunshine, and the appearance of sunlight relieved the gloomy atmosphere in the safe area for a moment. People who had been isolated from themselves because of the fear of infectious diseases also moved around one after another.
The security zone is divided into different functional zones, and the most populated area is the central square. A good drainage system keeps the area free of too much water, a large fountain landscape is quietly marked, and blue relief tents fill the area, and there are more people walking around, most of them medical personnel, with peacekeepers patrolling from time to time.
Zhang Ting and Sun Lu were still together after separating from Xiao Lan. Zhang Ting's family was assigned a tent, and Sun Lu also joined them, and several people were assigned to a tent, although it was narrow, but it was also enough to shelter from the wind and rain, and survived several rainstorm nights. Zhang Ting and Sun Lu volunteered to join the team of service providers and did their part as much as possible in the medical aid tent.
When the rest time came, Sun Lu took the lead in walking out of the medical tent, followed by Zhang Ting. Sun Lu took off her rubber gloves and turned her head to look at Zhang Ting, who had not spoken. The other party's footsteps were shaky, his eyes were foggy, and when she was about to trip herself, Sun Lu helped her in time.
Sun Lu helped Zhang Ting, found an open space, asked her to sit down, sighed and said, "You didn't sleep last night, you should take a rest, your body can't stand it." She naturally found out why Zhang Ting was in such a state.
"It's okay, it's just a little dizzy, I'll rest later." After Zhang Ting sat down, her face was pale and she said weakly.
Sun Lu knew that she was not easy to dissuade, so she chose to change the topic and said: "I heard Sister Li talk about the materials today, and said that the professional medical team is ready. ”
"I've been paying attention to the news before, probably just a few days ago. Zhang Ting took a sip of water and added in response.
"I hope they can make a difference when they come, it's really tired, you should rest more. Sun Lu still couldn't help but shift the topic to this.
"It's not that I don't want to, it's that I can't rest at all, even if my eyes are closed, I still can't sleep. As she spoke, Zhang Ting closed her eyes and thoughts, but she didn't stop.
Perhaps it is precisely because of this rescue experience that the two of them have a deep understanding of this disaster.
Death became a momentary thing, helplessness frequently weighed on their hearts, physical tiredness became secondary, and what really penetrated them was despair. It is precisely because of the rescue experience that I discovered the horror of this epidemic.
The attack was completely without warning, there was no cure, the infection was rapid and deadly, and how many times they witnessed the zombieization from a distance made them feel hopeless. You know, seeing the living dead directly and seeing the living zombie are completely different feelings. The former focuses on a state of self-preservation, while the latter develops empathy and can truly see the living dead as "people".
"Zhang Ting, Sun Lu, someone is looking for it. ”
The silence lasted short, and the break between the two was interrupted. I heard someone explain that it turned out that the manager had something to order. There was no refusal, they seemed to be accustomed to such a situation, and they did not complain. In the place where he had come out, he returned to the tent again.
What they thought was that Sister Li was not the only one inside......
