Security in the last days is no small matter.

After some deliberation, the security work on Foguang Island was raised to an unprecedented level.

Before the zombies retreat to a safe distance, a person will be arranged to keep a vigil every night, in addition to monitoring the situation in the park, the most important thing is of course to check the movement of zombies on land.

The first person to take the initiative to ask for duty was Du Yunfei, which is commonplace for him who often works overtime and emergencies.

At two o'clock in the morning, he was sitting in a dark living room staring at the monitor when he suddenly smelled the aroma of coffee.

"Instantly. It's definitely not as good as you used to drink, just do. ”

Su He wore the wide pajamas, walked over with a cup, and put it in front of Du Yunfei.

Du Yunfei took the coffee, "Why don't you sleep yet?" ”

"I can't sleep without you."

Su He pulled a chair to sit beside him, tilted his head and leaned on Du Yunfei's shoulder.

Du Yunfei didn't rush anyone, and reached out and touched his hair. The two of them snuggled quietly for a while, and finally Su He took the initiative to separate again.

"It's too hot!"

"Then you can make me hot coffee."

"Don't be, right? Don't give it to me. ”

As he spoke, Su He took a sip of the cup and spit out the coffee in an instant.

"Phew, what's that? Salty?! ”

Du Yunfei looked at him calmly: "What did you put yourself, don't you know?" ”

"I remember I put cinnamon powder...... Is it ......?"

"You'd better stay away from the kitchen."

“……”

At present, Su He has nothing to quibble about. He touched his nose and took a bowl of fruit from the refrigerator for Du Yunfei.

At this moment, Du Yunfei's mobile phone on the table rang.

"It's time."

Du Yunfei picked up the drone and walked outside the house.

According to the rules agreed in advance, there will be a drone launch reconnaissance mission in the middle of the night before and after. Du Yunfei chose the timing at two o'clock in the second half of the night, in the dead of night.

The drone turned on the night vision mode, and the field of vision was dark green, with a strange atmosphere. After about ten minutes, they saw the area where the zombies were infested yesterday.

It's an unfinished villa site, the building has not yet taken shape, and the ugly loess is □□ everywhere.

Su He and Du Yunfei stared with bated breath, but strangely, they didn't find any trace of the zombies.

"Gone?"

"Maybe hiding inside the building."

Du Yunfei simply recorded the situation while letting the drone continue to fly north.

The sharp-eyed Su He quickly found the target: "Here!" ”

Sure enough, there were three zombies, moving slowly on the road in the moonlight.

"Weird...... Are they heading north? Is this in response to their boss's call to go back and assemble? ”

"Observe again."

Du Yunfei let the drone continue to fly north, slowly approaching the location of Dian Bai in the urban village. There are more and more zombies in the vicinity, and it seems that they are all reuniting towards the zombie tree.

However, when the drone flew directly above the zombie tree, Du Yunfei and Su He began to find that things were not as simple as they imagined.

"That's not right...... Su He pointed to the display screen, "These zombies, they're still going north!" ”

Du Yunfei also saw it, and in the upper right corner of the surveillance screen, seven or eight zombies were slowly moving in the direction of Z City.

One or two may be a coincidence, but seven or eight are clustered around to act in unison, and one has to wonder if there is another reason.

"Maybe it was Dian Bai who commanded them." Du Yunfei speculated, "The question is why. ”

Su He picked up a piece of fruit and threw it into his mouth to chew: "Maybe it's because that tree knows that it is running out of energy, so it is transferring assets to another Dian Bai?" ”

"I don't think two barrels of seawater can completely destroy a single cypress." Du Yunfei shook his head.

“…… There is indeed a problem. Su He also felt that something was wrong, "These zombies are not going to the city center. Could it be that there is a third zombie tree? ”

Seeing is believing, the two of them decided to follow along and find out.

There are quite a few zombies on the ground, and from a high point it looks like a moving ant colony, and there is no interruption along the way. About thirty minutes later, the drone discovered the "new home" of the group of ants.

This is indeed not the center of Z City, but it is relatively close to the container terminal that was swept before. On both sides of the road, where the construction has not yet been completed, there are farmhouses waiting to be demolished. The overgrown vegetation along the roadside means that there may have been fierce battles here.

A steady stream of zombies finally stopped in front of a huge building. However, strangely enough, there is no trace of Dian Bai in the vicinity.

"Warehouse supermarket?" Su He squinted his eyes and recognized the broken signboard that was blurred in the dark night, "What are these zombies doing in the middle of the night?" Sweeping? ”

Du Yunfei operated the drone to fly around the supermarket. It is a huge supermarket about five stories high, and the posters on the outside of the floor suggest that there should be a lot of food and daily necessities stored inside. At the beginning of the apocalypse, it should also be regarded as a "battleground for soldiers".

When the camera turned to the side of the supermarket, several floor-to-ceiling glass windows on the second floor immediately attracted the attention of two people.

Two big words were painted on the window - "Help!" ”

——————————

At breakfast the next day, Du Yunfei told the others about what happened during the night.

After a brief period of astonishment, everyone was very cautious when they heard that there were survivors.

Haichen was the first to voice everyone's concerns: "Calling for help again?" The glasses boy who asked us to save him last time was already a foot tall on the grave. ”

Lu Rulan also asked: "Could the distress message be left before?" ”

Lin Youqing seconded: "There are many similar words for help in the urban area, and based on this alone, I don't think it can be determined that there are trapped inside." ”

"There's another thing that's weird." Su He, who had accompanied Du Yunfei all night, supported his head with his hand, "There is no Dianbai near that at all, and zombies are not people, why are you wandering around the supermarket?" ”

"It does look like there's a conspiracy."

Du Yunfei said the conclusion of his private analysis with Su He last night: "Dian Bai is wise, and the reason why it did this may be to design a revenge against us." ”

"It's like a trap, indeed." Duan Whale has always been cautious, "In any case, if we are not sure, we should not act rashly and observe the situation first." ”

Since everyone's opinions are similar, this matter is mainly on the sidelines for the time being. Once a day, the drone flies there to check on zombies and the supermarket.

By the third day, the worst had happened.

They found out that there were really people in the supermarket.

At noon that day, Haichen, who was in charge of aerial surveillance, replayed the video for others to see. On the second floor of the supermarket, in the floor-to-ceiling glass windows full of the word "distress", two six or seven-year-old children appeared.

The two children apparently spotted the low-flying drone and banged on the glass window to say something. Immediately after that, a thin young woman ran in the frame, also waving her hands vigorously at the camera.

You don't have to hear the sound to guess that they are crying for help.

The drone hovered in the air for a while, and finally rose to return home. Seeing the woman's lost eyes gradually disappear into the picture, everyone fell silent.

"Will this woman be the same trap as the man with glasses?" Duan Whale tried to think of a suspicious point.

"Everything is motivated. If she wants to harm us, why? Su He pondered further, "They are now besieged by zombies, and it is difficult to protect themselves. Do they still covet our wealth and want to harm our lives? ”

Lu Rulan suggested: "Let's ask them about their situation first, and write all the questions we want to ask on a large piece of paper to show them." And then make further judgments based on her answers. ”

Haichen also agreed: "Doesn't Qinghai still keep the national residents' file information?" Let's ask who they are first, and let Zhu Yixin help check the details. ”

Without further ado, the ten questions were worked out after deliberation. All written with markers on white tarpaulin. In the afternoon of the same day, the drone flew back to the outside of the supermarket with a big-character poster.

The children in the supermarket soon spotted the drone, and they found the skinny girl again. The girl carefully read the big-character poster, and then quickly found a pen and paper and began to reply.

The drone's high-definition camera quickly transmitted the girl's reply back to the villa on Foguang Island.

She said her name was Hu Siyu and she was a kindergarten teacher. In addition to her, there are three children in the supermarket, two girls and one boy, all of whom are toddlers from a nearby boarding kindergarten. After the zombie rush broke out, she took her three children and hid in the supermarket. There were originally a few adults with them, but in the intervening months, she and her three children were left in the supermarket as a burden. There's still something to eat in the supermarket, but I'm afraid it won't last long. There was a child with a fever and there was no medicine in the supermarket, and she was worried. ”

After reading all the replies written by the girls, Haichen turned to look at the others.

"This girl even took out her ID card, and she looks really serious."

After the communication was completed, the drone returned to Foguang Island. At the same time, Lin Youqing has also made contact with the Qinghai side.

After briefly hearing about the situation in the supermarket, Zhu Yixin was silent for two seconds, and then sighed.

"In this case, I have to tell the truth...... Based on the cases I have worked with and witnessed over the past few months, the chances of them being rescued are slim. The military is currently in no position to act alone for the sake of the three of them...... All I can say is a pity. ”

understands that this kind of decision is not something that Zhu Yixin can change, and everyone can only express their understanding. Of course, Zhu Yixin also helped them do something - based on the ID number and name, he quickly consulted Hu Siyu's resident file.

A 22-year-old local girl, in her second year of working as a kindergarten teacher, has good character and no criminal record - everything is not different from her own answer.

However, Zhu Yixin found far more than these.

"There's also a bit of unexpected news...... Among the three children you reported to me, the girl named Li Nijia should still have her parents alive, and they are in Qinghai. ”

The identity of the survivors and their social relations in the official settlements were investigated two months ago. The special name of Li Nijia corresponds to other factors, and it is almost certain that she is the only daughter of a rescued couple.

"Not every family will have that kind of good luck."

It's obviously a good thing, but Zhu Yixin doesn't sound too happy: "But I think it's better not to tell them for the time being."

ended the call with Zhu Yixin, and everyone in front of the radio looked at each other. For a long time, everyone seemed to be choked by an invisible hand, and they couldn't make a sound.

And at the end of the long silence, Duan Whale let out a heavy sigh.

"We had the toughest problem." 166 Reading Network
