Chapter 10 Stockpiling for the Winter

We pushed the shopping carts into the aisle in front of the door and covered the doors, which needed to be opened, so even if there were three or two walking corpses outside, they wouldn't know how to open the door.

After we loaded a whole cart of rice and noodles, we were finally ready to go to the second floor to look for the clothes we were going to get this time, it was already October, and the weather was obviously cooler after the previous rains, and we needed thicker clothes.

The second floor is full of clothing areas, this mall is a ring, the middle is empty, and the surrounding floors are full of shops.

There weren't many walking corpses on the first floor, so when we came to the second floor, we were naturally faced with silence.

Only the doors of the shops were open, and the messy clothes inside the women's clothing stores outside showed what kind of ridiculous things had happened here.

We didn't plan to separate, we didn't have time to clean up one by one, so we just went from house to house with a group of people, and in a store specializing in down jackets, we loaded two whole carts, shirts, sweaters, coats, and shoes that fit well, and we all chose shoes that were warm or easy to walk.

In the past, when we went shopping with our girlfriends, we could go shopping in one store for a long time even if we didn't buy anything, but now, it only takes a few minutes to empty a store.

We ran back and forth for a long time before we got to the door, and there were already a dozen walking corpses in front of the door, because we were all a little frantic and screaming as we walked back and forth inside.

The reason why Chen Wei and the others parked the car opposite Ruth was to prevent them from even having a chance to run to the car and shake off the walking corpses when they encountered such a situation.

But that's to prevent more walking corpses, and the dozen or so in front of us, a few of us should still be able to deal with them.

A few minutes ago, we pried open a fire cabinet, there was a big axe in it, Xiaoyu and Sun Miao also found two batons at the security guard, although not as powerful as a knife, but it was enough to deal with the crispy watermelon-like head of the walking corpse-

The improvement of weapons gave us a great boost of confidence, and when Chen Wei pushed open the door, several people rushed forward like warriors who followed the attack.

The weight of the axe is quite heavy, and I have a bit of a hard time using it, but it is really good to deal with the walking corpses, and after Xiaoyu knocks the walking corpses to the ground, I can split their heads in half with an axe.

A few walking corpses were quickly cleaned up, Chen Wei and Xu Yiwen ran to drive the car over, during which I stretched out my head to take a look, and there were still a few walking corpses near and far that saw us and were approaching this side.

But then again, I really thought that there would definitely be a lot of walking corpses in the city, but I didn't expect to see the picture I imagined when I came out this time.

What does a low number of walking corpses mean? A large number of people alive?

But why can't you see a single living person on the street?

As we lifted our belongings into the car, looking at a residential building across the road, it occurred to me that the people before were living in peace and stability, and the never-ending war in the Middle East has always been far away from us, and everyone has not been exposed to violence and bloodshed for too long, so when the world in front of them is turned upside down, they have no way to respond quickly, so they can only hide at home trembling and wait for rescue that will never come.

These are just my guesses, and maybe the people who are trembling in my head have all died more than two months ago.

All the way back to the hospital safely, the yard has been swaying a number of walking corpses, Xiaoyu and I ventured out of the car to close the door of the hospital, and when we parked the car in front of the building, the walking corpses have also swayed over, Chen Wei and Sun Miao stayed to deal with the walking corpses, and a few of us began to move things upstairs one after another.

It took us more than an hour to move so many things back and forth before they were all piled up in my parents' room.

Mom and Dad's room is usually a place for us to eat and gather, and the other rooms were originally wards, which were not very big.

This time, he didn't take snacks every day, he was also very sensible and didn't lose his temper, and the big bag of thrifty nibbles every day last time was at least half left.

After distributing the cotton clothes to each other, I clapped my hands in satisfaction in the face of the ingredients that almost filled the corner of the house, thinking that there were at least enough things for us to eat until winter.

I thought I could finally stay at home for a while, but I didn't expect to go out the next day.

Because we ignored one thing last time, that is, there are only some alcohol lamps in the hospital, and it is almost the same as boiling two mouthfuls of hot water, and when it is cold, it is impossible to cook it with that little alcohol, and there are so many of us.

The next day, I went to the front of the door with Chen and Sun Miao to bring back the gas canisters and gas stoves from a dumpling shop, but there was not much gas in the cans, and we needed to go to the gas filling area and bring back a few cans of gas.

Only my parents have been to the place where the gas is filled, and with my father's enthusiastic registration, it was finally decided to let him go out with Chen Wei, Sun Miao, and Xu Yiwen.

A few of us cleaned up another room at home and came out to serve as a kitchen.

Since there is gas, it can no longer be put in the parents' house, it is too unsafe.

While tidying up the house, Kiki suddenly pulled me aside and shoved me with a piece of paper.

"What's that?" I was a little confused when I took it.

Kiki's expression was a little worried: "You can take a look first, this is the painting of Tiantian that I stole from me." โ€

Yesterday I went to RT-Mart and I brought him two boxes of crayons and some drawing paper.

Even though I didn't study psychology, the painting in front of me still made my heart flutter.

Because the age gap between Tian Tian and my brother is relatively large, the whole family has always spoiled him, and every little thing about him has been taken care of properly by the four of us adults, and since the world is out of control in front of him, my brother is gone, and my mother takes care of my grandmother all day long, and my father and I don't have time to care about him anymore Looking at the obviously manic and scribbling picture in front of us and the humanoid thing on it that is deformed but full of fangs, Kiki on the side said: "Should you find a chance to talk to Tian Tian?" โ€

After two more glances, I put away the painting and asked, "What about every day?" โ€

"Play in Chen's house."

I wanted to show them to my parents right away so that they could spend time with them every day, but when I passed by my parents' house and saw my mother, who had gray sideburns, resting in front of my grandmother's window, I suddenly stopped.

The three major pains in life are the loss of a son in old age, the loss of a father at an early age, and the loss of a husband in middle age.

Mom and Dad have already been through two.

They are no longer young, and they are probably exhausted in their hearts until now, and they secretly miss their son in the dead of night and don't know how many times they have cried.

At lunchtime, Chen Wei and my dad came back with a full load of gas.

It's just that they don't seem to go out as smoothly as we did yesterday, and even the three people, including Chen Wei, are all covered in blood and brains, and the wolf is extremely bรจi.

I went to the kitchen and boiled some hot water with the leftover gas to give them a quick shower with cold water in the bathroom.

While my dad was taking a shower, my mom came over and started making lunch.

Her eyes were red and a little swollen, I don't know when I cried again, I stood aside for a while and then said: "Mom"

It took two seconds for my mom to turn her head to look at me, "Huh? What's wrong? โ€

Stared at her twice, her lips were chapped, her eyes were red and swollen, and her face was pale.

After sighing slightly, I stepped forward and hugged her: "It's nothing, I just want to hug you suddenly." โ€

After another two seconds, my mom chuckled and patted me on the back: "What's wrong with silly girl?" โ€

Caught off guard, my nose was sore, and I shook my head when I put my face on my mother's warm shoulders: "Why can't you let your daughter hug?" โ€

"Haha, I can hug my daughter whenever she wants."

For the next few days, I paid special attention to every day, but he was either in a daze or sleeping and eating every day, and hardly spoke.

Kiki is much more patient than I do, and even then I insist on talking to him behind Tiantian's ass every day, and after a few days, Tiantian is the most intimate with her, and even when I sleep at night, I am willing to burrow into Kiki's bed.

Time passed day by day, a few of us insisted on training every day, everyone got acquainted with each other like a family, the days were not so boring, the floor was filled with our laughter all day long, and occasionally attracted a few walking corpses in the yard, but with one by one being knocked down, the whole hospital has not seen walking walking upright for a long time.
