An Qitong hid in this small drink shop like this, and hid for two days, after Wang Meng left that day, An Qitong quietly checked the store again, it turned out that there was a small cubicle next to the bar, it was a small toilet, and there was a window more than 1 meter high on the wall of the cubicle, and there was a small alley outside the window, which should be the back alley of this row of storefronts along the street. The windows are not sealed, they can still be opened.

An Qitong originally planned to go back to her neighborhood like Wang Meng that day, but when she was about to go out, there were a lot of cannibalistic zombies on the street outside, An Qitong didn't know what was going on, but when she saw a boy rushing out of a shop on the opposite street, she was besieged by zombies on the street and lost his life before he left far, her determination to go out was shaken again. What to do? How do you get out now? An Qitong was very scared, she didn't know if she had the same luck as Wang Meng, at least Wang Meng didn't encounter zombies when she went out, not one.

An Qitong had to continue to hide in this store, but fortunately, there was still some food and drink in the store, so she hid for two days, and by now, her original clean clothes were dirty. It's not that she didn't want to go out during this period, but the zombies that wandered on the street from time to time seriously negatived her determination to go home, she didn't have the courage to go out to face these terrifying zombies, the living human beings were eaten and died like that, blood mixed with internal organs flowed all over the ground, and the air was filled with blood and rancid smell, which made An Qitong, a person who didn't even dare to kill chickens, even more afraid. She didn't know how Wang Meng was, whether she had returned home safely, or if she was in danger, but she envied Wang Meng, at least she dared to go out and face this.

In this small shop, An Qitong sat quietly under the bar, leaning on his squint for a while when he was sleepy, and he would always be awakened by various sounds outside after not sleeping for long.

An Qitong had just slept for a while, and was awakened by the screams in the distance, she glanced at the clock hanging on the wall, it was already 12 o'clock at noon. She had already gathered all the food and drink in the store, and after two days of consumption, there was not much food left. An Qitong understands that she can't hide in this store forever and not go out, if she is not eaten by zombies, she will starve to death, she has to find a way to go out and find something to eat, it is best to find a safe place. However, she looked at the zombies wandering outside the door, put it on the doorknob and put it down again.

An Qitong carefully ate a pack of instant noodles, there was no hot water, so she had to eat it dryly like this, her throat was already dry like a fire, but she didn't dare to drink too much water, she couldn't guarantee that the water was finished, and she couldn't find it again, she didn't even dare to go out. At first, there was still running water, but by the time she remembered to pick up the water, it had already been a day, and the water had stopped when she wanted to get it again. Looking at the remaining two bottles of water, An Qitong felt inexplicably irritable. She hated herself for being so cowardly, she didn't dare to go out, she would just hide here, she didn't dare to speak, she didn't dare to turn on the lights, and she didn't know if there was electricity, the mobile phone was already out of power, and the only thing she knew the time was the wall clock in the store. I hadn't washed my body for two days, and my hair was oily and shiny, exuding an unpleasant rancid smell. In the summer, the smell of fish and rancid smell outside made her nauseous. But even so, she didn't dare to stand by the door and look outside.

Such a timid self is what she hates, she understands that only she can convince herself that this world is no longer the world she is familiar with, life has become fragile, and it is also the most important, how to fill her stomach is what she has to do now, but everything can only be done by herself out of this door.

The sun was still shining outside the window, and the windless afternoon was even hotter, and the disgusting smell in the air was really uncomfortable. An Qitong leaned quietly against the window of the bathroom, wondering if he could get out smoothly from here. Since there are a lot of zombies outside the door, you don't necessarily have to go out through the door. The window in the bathroom is not big, but An Qitong can still go out if he wants to. And the small alley outside is quiet, there are no zombies. An Qitong stretched his head out of the window and looked carefully, the alley is relatively slender, because the store he is in is on the corner of the street, so it is now at the end of the alley, looking all the way down the alley, it is basically some sundries, only a few shops are piled up behind some gas canisters and the like, probably the people in the front store usually cook in the alley.

It's just that I don't know what happened in the other stores, if there are people who are still alive and hiding like her. Or there are zombies in the store, trapped. An Qitong only knew that there was no one in the store next to the store he was in, because at the beginning of the end of the world, the front store door was closed, and the roller shutters were all down. In the past two days, I haven't heard any movement in the store next door. An Qitong actually wanted to enter the store next door from the back alley to see if there was anything to eat or drink, but she didn't know if the store next door also had doors or windows in the back alley.

Everything needs her to go out and see.

An Qitong, who had been entangled for a long time, decided to go out and have a look, just next door, once there was a situation, she could come back in time. An Qitong stuffed the rest of the food and water in the store into her bag, she decided that if the next door was safe, then go to the next door to stay first, at least the door of the store next door was closed, unlike this small drink shop except for a glass door that was closed, but the roller shutter was rolled up high. If there's a situation next door, she'll come back here and find a way to leave.

An Qitong put the backpack on his back, checked himself, and found a stick with a steel texture under the bar, and one end of the stick also has a hook, which is estimated to be used to close the roller shutter in the store. An Qitong looked out of the window carefully, the alley was very quiet, and the two-meter-wide alley was winding out along the side of the exterior wall of the building behind the storefront, so An Qitong only needed to pay attention to the back door or back window of the shop along the street.

An Qitong gently climbed out of the window, the window was not very high, and after she went out, she slowly slid to the ground, trying not to make a sound. She slowly approached the back of the shop next door, and sure enough, this store also opened a back door here, the door was very small, and it was a width that only one person could enter by turning sideways. Even better, there is a window on the wall next to the door, and the window is open.

An Qitong tried to push the door, the door was locked, and he couldn't push it, and listened carefully to the movement in the store through the crack in the door, the store was dark, and he couldn't see what business he was doing before, but a beam of sunlight occasionally came in from the gap in the roller shutter, and the dust floating in the air could be seen in the beam.

An Qitong avoided the door, carefully climbed up the window, and climbed in lightly, until her feet hit the ground, she realized that her back was already sweaty. Such a short distance, but An Qitong's strength was used up for most of it, she leaned against the window and gasped for a long time, until she was breathing a little steadily, and then she began to look at the store.

Through the light coming in through the window, An Qitong found that this was also a small cubicle, but the middle partition was opened, the half with the door was the outer room, and the other half with the window was also a small bathroom, but the area was larger than the previous drink shop. An Qitong quietly walked out and came to the junction between the compartment and the storefront, she carefully held the steel bar in her hand, and nervously walked towards the store step by step.

After getting used to the dark environment of the store, An Qitong found that the store was originally a convenience store, with small shelves full of goods, arranged in two rows vertically, one row on each side against the wall, and a cash register near the door. An Qitong was very happy, she carefully checked every corner of the store, and after finding that it was temporarily safe, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that God was helping her, and she sent hope when she was desperate. It also made An Qitong understand that only by facing all this bravely can there be opportunities and hopes.

An Qitong found a chair at the cash register and pressed it against the small door at the back. She quickly found a bottle of water and drank it. It was only after she felt like she had come back to life that she began to count her supplies.

I don't know how long I'm going to be here, and I have to figure out how much food and water is the most important thing. An Qitong found a small flashlight on the shelf, which can be charged, tried to open it and found that it could be lit, so he quickly and carefully rummaged through it. This is a small convenience store, the middle two rows of four rows of shelves are food and drink, and the shelves on both sides are daily necessities. According to this statistics, there are already a lot of foods that can be preserved.

An Qitong thinks that the protagonist in the novels he usually reads has a carry-on space, and everything can be placed in it, and he doesn't have to worry about whether it will be bad after the expiration date. Sure enough, a novel is a novel, and such a magical thing can only be crooked in a novel. Looking at a large pile of food, An Qitong's heart finally settled down a little.

I found a big bag, it was the kind of woven bag with checkered stripes, which should be sold in the store, An Qitong put all the food and water into the bag, found the corner of the cash register and hid it, and found that the electric plug board under the cash register was still on the red light, An Qitong cheered, quickly found the mobile phone charger from the bag, connected the phone to charge, and shrank under the cash register. It turned out that there was still electricity in the past two days, and by the way, I plugged in the flashlight I found before to charge. After the phone could be turned on, An Qitong quickly opened the phone and found that there was no network, so he hurriedly dialed his father's mobile phone, but found that he couldn't get through. An Qitong called her mother again, but she still couldn't get through.

Yes, it's all the end of the world, and my parents don't know what's going on, and I don't know if they're safe, they all have their own families, and they seem to be outsiders, and I don't know if anyone remembers them now. Dad's new family has a younger brother, and Mom's family also has a son and daughter, so I guess no one can remember me.

An Qitong leaned under the cash register dejectedly, and the faint light from the mobile phone he was holding looked very lonely. She took off her glasses and buried her head in her knees, but there was a deep sadness in her tired eyes. When I was very young, my parents separated, and soon they formed a new family, my father An Weiguo's new family and new aunt were very beautiful, always speaking softly, and when I saw An Qitong, I would always smile slightly, and it didn't take long for my father to give birth to a younger brother, who was 6 years younger than himself. The new aunt's name is Lin Nan, like a person who came out of the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, gentleness is the biggest impression she gives people, when she was young, every year during the Chinese New Year, she would always buy new clothes for An Qitong, her father always looked at Lin Nan with a smile, and the younger brother next to her was also very well-behaved and obedient, such a picture of a happy family of three, so that An Qitong couldn't fit in, and felt like a saboteur, which would destroy their happiness. Every time after the New Year, she hurried back to her grandmother's house in the countryside, and if she had nothing to do, she would not go to her father's new house again.

An Qitong's mother is a strong woman, she can't be a woman's gentleness, and her strong personality will always conflict with her father, and after a long time, the separation of the two is inevitable. Mom also soon had a new family, there is a brother who is one year older than herself in the new family, the new uncle is called Zhang Xinquan, a taxi driver, with this brother and mother to form a new family, the brother is called Zhang Tao, seeing that he always proudly raised his chin and said that he is a hillbilly, his mother soon gave birth to a daughter, also 6 years younger than himself, a family of four is very happy, he seems to be redundant, in the eyes of his mother, he is an obedient and sensible child, will not cause her trouble, and he really does not want to trouble his mother, So, since she was a child, she has lived with her grandmother except when necessary. When he was 21 years old, his grandmother died, and he said goodbye to Q City, where he lived since he was a child, and came to H City.

Q City is a small city, unlike H City, which is the capital of Province A, An Qitong lives with her grandmother in the county under Q City, and her life is comfortable, Grandma has always told her not to hate her parents, they are just helpless, An Qitong feels that she is used to making decisions about everything, and she is used to it without the appearance of her parents in life, so she can't say that she hates or not. Whenever this time, An Qitong always smiled and said that he didn't hate, which was good, but grandma sighed deeply.

Life is his own, there is nothing to do, An Qitong will not force it, his father and mother have their own lives, but the money that should support themselves has never been less, until An Qitong graduated from university, life is carried out unhurriedly. In the year of graduating from college, his grandmother died, An Qitong packed up his grandmother's things, and told his parents that he would come to H City, and he could support himself in the future, and his parents only said that they knew, so after 4 years, An Qitong rarely returned to Q City, and he only contacted by phone if he had something.

Recalling this, An Qitong wanted to cry a little, is he alone in this world, are his parents okay? I live alone strongly, and I leave outsiders with my own laughter, but in fact, I don't know how many times I have secretly cried under the quilt. She doesn't hate her parents, but she always complains, maybe she has been alone since she was a child, and she has developed a somewhat introverted personality, she doesn't like to talk, and she has few friends, but if she really wants to make a friend, she will get along very sincerely.

I'm glad that I haven't grown crooked, I'm still a good young man, I'm still full of expectations for this world, and I've looked forward to the half of my future like other girls, will it be a prince charming? An Qitong has never been in love, and her boyfriend is like a good plot in a novel that can make her laugh, a sweet dream that she secretly dreams in the dead of night, and when it is cold, she looks forward to the warmth she can bring to herself.

The screen of the mobile phone is bright and dark, dark and bright, An Qitong looked at the time displayed on the mobile phone, it has been half a day, and now it is ten o'clock in the evening, and the beam of sunlight leaking in by the roller shutter is gone, and the house is even darker.

This small convenience store is far less than the big supermarket, but if you are alone, you can live for a few days, but listening to the roar of the zombies outside the roller shutter, An Qitong thinks that this is not a place where he can live safely, and he still has to go out.

An Qitong's whole person shrank under the cash register, opened a loaf of bread, and ate it slowly with mineral water, the smell on her body was really bad, but the feeling of slowly filling up her stomach made An Qitong slowly relax, and the mental tension in the past two days was relieved at this moment, at least now she is still safe. After eating half of the bread, An Qitong put away the rest of the bread, put the water away, turned off the mobile phone, and continued to charge it. The whole person leaned back, closed his eyes and tried not to listen to the sound outside, and slowly fell asleep.
