Chapter 43: Trespassing on a Residential Property
It's a long day, and unlike looking at the scenery along the road, you can't make loud noises or walk around under the eaves. It's a bit of a year-old feeling.
Zheng Jiayi climbed up to the rooftop shared with her neighbors, and sharpened wooden stakes were erected on the originally spacious rooftop.
"What a talent!" Zheng Jiayi sighed that these people's hands-on ability is too strong.
"Jiayi, what are you doing?"
Zheng Jiayi was just about to cross the Lei Chi when she was stopped.
In the end, she did something wrong, although the other party's voice was not loud, it still scared her.
"Don't shout—" Zheng Jiayi turned her head and glared at Wu Shuai.
"I didn't shout, I was quiet." Wu Shuai said three steps and ran up in two steps, glanced at the courtyard next door, and asked, "What do you want to do?" ”
Zheng Jiayi glanced at Wu Shuai badly and said, "The idle egg hurts." ”
Wu Shuai had a hint of foreboding, and then repeated again: "What do you want to do-" However, this time it didn't sound like a question.
"Together?" Zheng Jiayi tried her best to instigate Wu Shuai to go shopping next door with her, and clean up the next door by the way.
"Calm down! We're really only one step ahead of you, so we didn't have time to expand over there. Wu Shuai signaled Zheng Jiayi not to act rashly.
"Hey-" Zheng Jiayi sighed and continued, "I said why did you pick the most marginal one. With the slightest movement, the walking corpse will know. A little in the middle, you can speak loudly, don't you? ”
"Yes, that's right. However, we will definitely do it when we find a chance. Now come down with me. Wu Shuai stretched out his hand and wanted to get Zheng Jiayi off the rooftop.
"It's better to pick up the sun than to hit the sun. Besides, I heard that your people are quite busy right now, right? Zheng Jiayi didn't let Wu Shuai grab her hand, she took care of herself and studied the sharp bamboo pole inserted in the ground. Curious, he asked, "How did you get in?" ”
"It's useless. I haven't had time to get it done yet! Wu Shuai shrugged his shoulders and carefully touched the bamboo pole, but he didn't dare to use force.
"Really?" Zheng Jiayi pulled hard.
"Hehe, it's really hey-" Zheng Jiayi smiled and took the bamboo pole in her hand, then smiled evilly at Wu Shuai, and said, "Then I'll go." See the scenery by yourself. ”
"Don't. Even if you have to go now, call a few more people-" Wu Shuai was really anxious, he didn't think Zheng Jiayi was joking from the beginning.
"Then I'll go first. You go back and call someone, hurry up—" After saying that, he got through the interval between the bamboo poles that he had pulled out, and strode towards the courtyard over there.
"Hey-" Wu Shuai couldn't run to find someone, so he could only pull out the bamboo pole and follow.
"You're not going to call someone?" Zheng Jiayi's smiling eyes are almost gone, and the pleasure of having a bad heart is really amazing.
"It feels good to do something bad and drag someone's back, right?" Wu Shuai glanced at Zheng Jiayi speechlessly, where could she hide her little thoughts, not to mention that she also laughed at that virtue.
"That's what I said." Zheng Jiayi disagreed, and corrected seriously: "It's a good thing if this thing is done." ”
"Alright, alright. Caught up. Wu Shuai said and walked quickly to the door of the second floor and said, "We have all checked before, the doors are locked, and there may not be anyone inside." That's why we dared to insert a few poles at random, and we didn't rush to clean it up here. ”
"That's great, let's make sure we can have more places to live. We're all squeezed to death, okay? Zheng Jiayi couldn't wait to follow, and glanced at the lock on the door, which was actually external. That means at least there's no one here. In fact, she is ready, just a farmhouse that looks like a villa, even if the four generations are in the same house and the children and grandchildren are full, how many people can there be?
Wu Shuai smashed the bottom end of the bamboo pole hard! It only took two clicks to smash a lock that looked quite large. However, look at the smashed and dropped lock, it is indeed a long time.
"Squeak—" The door was gently pushed open.
Zheng Jiayi followed Wu Shuai in, and an indescribable smell came to her face, like a question of feces and urine, and like the smell of rancid food. In this airtight room, you definitely need to hold your breath to stay still.
"I'll look around, you stand still first." Wu Shuai said and walked in the direction of the stove.
The stove in this house has not been dismantled. Zheng Jiayi feels that this rare thing can already be classified as a heritage of human civilization.
"No one!" Wu Shuai glanced at the stairs as he spoke, and said, "Go upstairs!" ”
Zheng Jiayi nodded, just about to follow.
"Wait-" Zheng Jiayi grabbed Wu Shuai's shoulder from behind.
"What's the matter?" Wu Shuai has a side face.
"There's movement!" Zheng Jiayi was not sure, put her finger to her mouth, and made a 'shhh' gesture to Wu Shuai.
"The Walking Dead?" Wu Shuai turned his body sideways. Let Zheng Jiayi lean forward and continue to listen.
"It's not—" Zheng Jiayi was sure that it was not a walking corpse. Although the waves of walking corpses outside the window kept making ho- However, the movement in the room was completely different, like the sound of running upstairs. When encountering a living person, instead of rushing over, it flees in the opposite direction, and it can only be other living people.
"Anyone?" Although Wu Shuai didn't want to disturb Zheng Jiayi. But although they didn't come a few days earlier than Zheng Jiayi and them, they also came a while early. There are living people next door, how can they not know?
"Hmm!" Zheng Jiayi nodded. The heart is up and down. In these last days, the living are sometimes more difficult to deal with than the walking dead, especially if the other person is not a good person.
"Living?" Wu Shuai couldn't believe his ears and confirmed again.
Zheng Jiayi took this question as a danger signal. Nodding again, he said, "Be careful." ”
Wu Shuai quickly understood what Zheng Jiayi was worried about. But he had a different view. If the other party had organized and had weapons, they would have killed them a long time ago, and they would not have waited here. And the lock is locked from the outside. The living people on it are either old people or children.
"Don't be afraid!" After Wu Shuai comforted Zheng Jiayi, he directly received the bamboo pole behind him and walked upstairs quickly.
Zheng Jiayi quickly followed, but the bamboo pole in her hand was still firmly grasped.
"Squeak-" The door to the first room on the second floor was pushed open. It's messy, but you can see it clearly at a glance, there's nothing.
Zheng Jiayi pointed to the wardrobe in the corner. It shouldn't be a problem to look at the size and hide from people.
Wu Shuai nodded, and then walked over lightly.
Without waiting for Wu Shuai to open the wardrobe door. Zheng Jiayi seemed to hear some movement. The voice is so familiar that anyone with a dog in the family will know it. This is a low warning sound that a dog makes when it encounters danger. Casual haven't started barking yet, but, if they get a little closer. It's hard to keep screaming. It's just that the sound doesn't come from the closet, it comes from next door.
"Wu Shuai-" Zheng Jiayi called Wu Shuai softly.
Wu Shuai's hand that was about to open the door stopped in mid-air, and he turned his head to look at Zheng Jiayi.
Zheng Jiayi shook her head at him, then reached out and pointed next door.
Wu Shuai nodded, and then lightly returned to the door.
"Be careful, there's a dog!" Zheng Jiayi whispered in Wu Shuai's ear.
"What?" Wu Shuai was taken aback, he was actually quite afraid of dogs. In particular, grass dogs and earth dogs basically have the role of caretaking, so they are much more fierce than ordinary pet dogs.
"What? Are you afraid of dogs? Zheng Jiayi's face was incredulous.
"It's not that I'm afraid. We are trespassing on a private house. Aren't you afraid that people will let dogs bite you? Wu Shuai's worries are not unreasonable.
Zheng Jiayi hurriedly put down the bamboo pole in her hand, took out a piece of beef jerky from her pocket, quickly peeled it off and handed it to Wu Shuai's hand. She always brings a small snack with her. Anyway, these snacks can't be eaten as food, so she has the cheekiness to take them for herself.
Seeing Wu Shuai looking at her in surprise, he didn't take it easily. Zheng Jiayi pinched the beef cubes and asked, "I'll go?" ”
"That's not what I mean—" Wu Shuai awkwardly took the beef cubes and explained, "I just didn't expect you to have this thing." It's an absolute rarity at this time! ”
Zheng Jiayi was noncommittal, picked up the bamboo pole, and stood shoulder to shoulder with Wu Shuai. If the beef grains are not good, then you can only be sorry for the dog.
