Chapter 44: Missing
At the beginning of September, the temperature dropped suddenly, from nearly 40 degrees Celsius per day, to less than 25 degrees Celsius after a rain.
Tang Moqi and Ye Jin still led everyone to run out of the city every day, and in the past two months, almost the entire area within five kilometers of the security zone has been turned over. At present, it is becoming more and more difficult for each team to find supplies, one is because they have to go farther, and not every team is so lucky to have transportation, which means that more body and manpower are needed, and it also means that the materials that can be brought back are very limited.
The second reason is that there are soldiers within five kilometers of the perimeter of the security zone who patrol and shoot zombies every day, which is relatively safe, while the density of zombies outside five kilometers has become very scary due to the accumulation of nearly two months. I have not yet heard of a team that dares to walk five kilometers outside the safe zone.
Usually, Tang Jianfeng set off from the courtyard with them, one returned to the army to report, and the others went directly to the gate of the security zone to register and set off. Tang Jianfeng's tasks are usually tasks with a relatively high level of secrecy, and sometimes he doesn't come back for several days as soon as he goes out.
This time, Tang Jianfeng has been out for nearly a week, and there is still no news until mid-September. Tang Moqi finally couldn't sit still, but before Tang Moqi could act, Tang Qingshu suddenly came over.
It wasn't dawn yet, Tang Moqi didn't fall asleep, and immediately got up after hearing the movement, but he didn't expect to see Tang Jianfeng, but Tang Qingshu. Tang Qingshu looked anxious, Ye Jin kept vigil today, and he also came over.
"Why are you here?Is there any news about your brother, what did your brother do?" Before Tang Qingshu could speak, Tang Moqi grabbed him and threw out a series of questions eagerly.
Tang Qingshu nodded and said bitterly, "Big brother is missing." ”
"Missing?" Tang Moqi and Ye Jin whispered in unison, Tang Moqi's face turned even pale, and he grabbed Tang Qingshu tightly and said, "What the hell is going on? How long have you been missing?"
Tang Shuqing's anxious mouth was already foaming, his eyes were dim, and he said: "It's been two days, and I really have no way to come to you, big brother, they have a positioning device on their bodies, and they are new products that the institute has just developed by relying on satellites, but their positioning news is there."
It suddenly disappeared two days ago, and there has been no response until now. ”
Tang Moqi heard the pupils of the "Research Institute" shrink suddenly, and forced himself to draw his attention back, saying, "Where did you go missing?" I'll go look for him now. ”
Tang Qingshu pondered for a moment before he spoke: "At the end of August, we received news from the security zone of City H, and since then, the communication device has not received any news from City J, so the task of the eldest brother is to go to City J to find out the news. ”
Tang Moqi frowned deeply after hearing this, as far as he knew, in his previous life, there was no safety zone at all in J City, although J City was the provincial capital, but firstly, the population was not large, and secondly, it was too close to Kyoto, and the military reserves were insufficient. What's more, this time, before the outbreak of the virus, the armed forces of J City were transferred to Kyoto, which means that J City simply did not have enough military forces to establish a security zone.
Except for those infected with the virus, the vast majority of the citizens of J City have fled in all directions, and J City was just an empty city with a few survivors in Tang Moqi's previous life. It is impossible to create a safe zone out of thin air in this life.
Ye Jin saw that Tang Moqi's face was wrong, but because of Tang Qingshu, Ye Jin didn't ask much, just immediately went to call everyone up, everyone heard that something was wrong, and immediately took action, but in ten minutes, everyone was ready to gather in the living room and set off at any time.
Tang Qingshu couldn't help but look sideways at the efficiency of their actions in his heart, and the seven people drove two cars and rushed straight to the gate of the security zone.
It was not yet dawn, and the entire security zone was still in curfew, except for the officers and soldiers on patrol, there was basically no one on the road, and there were troops from Tang Qingshu
The car cleared the way and there was no trouble along the way. It wasn't until the entrance that everyone realized that Old Man Tang was already waiting there.
"Grandpa, why are you here" Tang Qingshu rolled down the window, he didn't tell Old Man Tang the news, but obviously, Old Man Tang had already gotten the news from his own channels.
Old Man Tang straightened his back, stared at Tang Qingshu with sharp eyes, and said, "Your wings are also stiff, don't you? You dare to hide such a big thing from me!"
Tang Qingshu didn't dare to refute, but Old Man Tang didn't pay attention to him, but walked directly to the back car, and Tang Moqi rolled down the window impatiently. Old Man Tang's expression was quite calm, and he prayed to Tang Mo: "Since your brother values you more than life, I hope you can also do your best to bring him back." ”
Tang Moqi sneered, and said to Old Man Tang's unkind eyes: "I don't need your orders, he is mine, of course I will bring him back." After speaking, he didn't care about Old Man Tang's blue face, stepped on the accelerator and walked away.
Out of the safe zone, Tang Qingshu took out a few guns and handed them to everyone.
Tang Qingshu's car led the way in front, and after driving five kilometers through the safety zone, the road conditions became obviously dangerous, and in just ten minutes, Tang Qingshu almost overturned because of two zombie attacks. Zhang Zicheng immediately replaced him to drive. But it's still quite difficult to move forward. In order to prevent being surrounded by zombies, Ye Jin opened the roof window of Tang Moqi's car, revealing his upper body to shoot at those approaching zombies, but he still did not cure the symptoms
Ben, more and more zombies are chasing after him.
Just when everyone was in a dilemma, Xu Shiqing suddenly jumped out of Tang Qingshu's car, and Tang Qingshu looked at those zombies in shock
Treat him like nothing. Xu Shiqing opened a path with a machete, ran sideways for hundreds of meters before stopping, threw a fresh blood bag to the ground, and smashed a sharp stone. The blood bag was real human blood, which they usually drew out for backup, and it came in handy at this time.
After the blood bag broke, the fresh blood molecules of the human race instantly diffused into the surrounding air, and the zombies around it quickly turned around and surrounded the blood as if they had been hit with chicken blood in an instant, and the pressure on the side of the car was also greatly reduced.
Everyone took the opportunity to quickly drive through this zombie-dense area, and a few kilometers behind, Xu Shiqing did the same, and used up all the stored blood bags, and the two cars barely drove through this high-density zombie area gathered around the safety zone.
When everyone was about to breathe a sigh of relief, they found that the road ahead was actually artificially barried, and more than a dozen men with masked faces suddenly emerged from the shadows and stared at them.
