Chapter 108: Clues (Part II)

Although this street is located in the new district, the pace of development and expansion has not yet reached this point, and the shops on both sides of the street are still opened in the old-fashioned commercial and residential buildings. The first floor of the street frontage here www.biquge.info is generally used for shops, and the second to sixth floors are residential buildings. The building is a little mottled, the appearance looks slightly old, and the living environment above the second floor is far from being as good as the community developed in recent years. However, the residents here have long been accustomed to this environment, and there are usually a lot of pedestrians on the streets, but of course most of them have become zombies now.

On the roof of the shop on the first floor, the walls are indented inwards by half a meter, creating a sky walkway that is barely passable. However, this hidden walkway is obscured by the large and small signboards of the shops, and it is almost impossible to see.

The location Qin Qin was pointing to was the second store on their left, which seemed to be out of business for renovation, and the store's signboard had been removed, but it happened to reveal the not wide roof walkway. Perhaps because the renovation workers were still working when the zombie virus broke out, the ladder on the top of the first floor was not taken away, but left in place.

Aside from this rather hidden aerial walkway, Qin Qin really couldn't think of any way to move to other places without alerting the zombies on the street. You must know that although the zombies on this street are not too dense, they can already be regarded as a moat for two ordinary people. Even if she and Beichen join forces, it will take a lot of time to get to the intersection, let alone ordinary people who have little combat power.

Zhou Beichen could obviously think of this, his father and younger brother had been out for nearly four hours. Naturally, they don't go as fast as the two of them. In the case of being careful of zombies, it would take at least three hours just to search that shopping street, so presumably they wouldn't have been on this street for long, and they shouldn't have gone far.

Zhou Beichen pulled Qin Qin to the bottom of the ladder, and after careful observation, he found that the dust accumulated on the ladder did have traces of being partially rubbed off, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. I haven't seen anyone yet, but now that I have a clue, it's a good start.

Led by Zhou Beichen, the two followed the ladder and climbed up the walkway less than half a meter wide. This walkway is a little narrower, and there are flowers and plants raised by residents on the second floor and the outdoor unit of the air conditioner installed in the way, which is really not easy to walk. After carefully advancing more than ten meters along the aisle, the zombies wandering the street seemed to smell the scent of the two and began to gradually converge towards them.

Zombies can't jump high, so naturally they can't reach the two. But looking at the blue-gray faces under the feet, which are either rotten or intact, and the strange bodies that have been gnawed and are still struggling to walk, one makes people feel like they have fallen into a terrible nightmare. The pair of gray pupils stared at the direction of the two, and at the same time, their hands were raised high, and a hoarse sneer came out of their mouths, which also made Qin Qin feel extremely nervous. Although she is not afraid of being hurt, she is really going to fall into the circle of so many zombies, and I am afraid that it will not be easy to escape alive.

Zhou Beichen thought as he walked, although he would not be attacked by zombies when he walked on this passage, because he was too close to the ground, he would inevitably attract the attention of zombies. As the zombies below gathered more and more, it was obviously impossible for two ordinary people to leave the ground again. Since they couldn't walk on the ground, the only way they could get out was in the air, that is, the residents on the second floor.

Probably because the downstairs is the shop facing the street, most of the residents on the second floor have installed anti-theft nets, so as not to enter the house in the middle of the night. Zhou Beichen took Qin Qin and walked through most of the building, and finally saw a family without an anti-theft net. Zhou Beichen couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth when he saw the smashed window, obviously the joy of finding his father and younger brother made him feel good.

When the two climbed through the window to enter the house, they found that the room was empty, with no furniture left, and it seemed that the owner's family had moved out for a long time. For the sake of insurance, Zhou Beichen proposed to kill all the zombies gathered downstairs before continuing the search. Qin Qin naturally had no objection, although it was very important to find someone, but if those zombies were allowed to gather together and ignore it, it would inevitably be a little troublesome when they found someone and wanted to leave.

Now that they are on the second floor, they can take advantage of this opportunity to easily kill those zombies, which can be regarded as leaving a way back for the next action. This is also the habit that Zhou Beichen has developed in his life in the last life for many years, no matter what the situation, he must find a way back. After all, zombies are gradually becoming terrifying, and those mutated zombies are not easy to deal with, so leaving a more way back can give you more guarantees.

Zhou Beichen's efficiency was very high, and he eliminated more than 20 zombies downstairs in less than ten minutes. After coming to the living room, Qin Qin saw that the door of this resident was open, and there were still a few pieces of broken glass stuffed in the crack of the door.

Zhou Beichen didn't dare to delay, and ran downstairs with Qin Qin in tow. He knew that his father and brother had no special abilities, and although the upstairs houses might have some food, they were obviously powerless against the sturdy security locks.

Well, the only place where you can find supplies is the shops on the ground floor. Although there are many zombies guarding the street in front, the back door of the store is safe. As long as you are careful, don't alarm the zombies on the street, even if there are one or two zombies in the store, it is not too much of a problem, and it is not difficult to solve it by getting stuck in the terrain.

Just as Zhou Beichen ran to the exit of the first floor, he heard the sound of crackling things falling to the ground not far from the left. Zhou Beichen's eyes widened suddenly, and he turned his head sharply to look in the direction where the voice came from.

Perhaps because the building is a commercial and residential building, some of the shops on the first floor have a different design at the back entrance than a normal store, but rather resembles a newsstand. The direction of the voice was an expanded and renovated window, and there was a half-hidden roller shutter door on the window, and a small signboard hanging above the roller shutter door with the words Limin Supermarket written on it. There is a closed security door next to the window that looks like the back door of this store.

Zhou Beichen was worried about the comfort of his father and younger brother, and he didn't care about anything else, so he hurriedly ran to the window, only glanced at the scene inside, and immediately jumped in with both hands.

Qin Qin did the same, but she was petite, and it took some effort to try to jump in through the window. When Qin Qin finally turned over and entered the supermarket, she saw a scene that almost suffocated her.

"Beichen!"
