On the way, Tang Tu and the three of them passed by a grave, which was a child's grave, so Ellie remembered Sam, but Joel told Ellie not to mention it again. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Tang Tu sighed in his heart that Joel is a very good man, and his only drawback is escapism, such as escaping Sarah's death, Tess's death, and Henry and Sam's deaths.

After walking for a while, Ellie began to cry out for hunger. Tang Tu was also a little hungry, so he activated the energy card and ate it, as if Ellie and Joel hadn't seen his actions.

"I'm so hungry." Ellie shouted weakly.

"Me too." Joel said.

"If I see a squirrel again, I'll shoot him ruthlessly."

"Let's get through this place quickly, and we'll be able to find food later."

"If I starve to death, you're responsible."

"Uh... That's the power plant in front, are we going to go in? ”

"There's no way around it, we have to go through the power plant."

This is a hydroelectric power station, which has long been abandoned. Tang Tu and Joel found a map in the duty room outside, and the custody of the map belonged to Joel, because Tang Tu couldn't read it.

Tang Tu and Joel try to break down the gate of the power plant, only to see a bunch of gunmen appear on the wall, one of whom is Joel's brother Tommy.

Tommy is getting older, more noticeably older than Joel, and he is married, and his wife is Maria, the head of this power plant. Tommy: They're trying to get this power plant working again.

When Tang Tu and the others came, Tommy's work was at a critical juncture. Maria takes Ellie to eat, and Don Tu and Joel follow Tommy to see their work.

“... I don't know what you're going to do, but you should take a look at our town. We now have more than two dozen families, thanks to Maria and her father.

They built this place with self-sufficiency in mind, and we also grow crops and raise livestock. Remember when we thought no one could live like this anymore? We're doing that now. ”

Tommy gushes on, looking hopeful about life.

"How do you protect yourself?" Joel asked suddenly.

"Adults take turns guarding the surroundings. When the power plant was operational, we also had electric barbed wire. ”

"What about the inved, you still have to watch out for their invasion, right?"

"Is there anything you don't use? This is the world we live in now. ”

"Maybe you don't need to do that anymore..."

"Why do you sound a bit like Marlene?"

Work on the power plant went very well, and their engineers got the turbine back in turn, much to Tang Tu's impress.

"Tommy, I need to talk to you, privately."

"Okay, let's go over there."

Joel looked at Tang Tu, who shrugged his shoulders, "I'll wait for you outside." ”

Joel nodded and followed Tommy into the next room. Tang Tu walked back and forth around, watching the engineers go about their work.

Suddenly, someone outside shouted, "There are robbers! Robbers have rushed in! ”

Tang Tu walked to the window and stretched out his head to see that a group of gunmen were storming the gate of the power plant, he immediately activated the sniper rifle, lay on the window and began to shoot.

In the chaos, Joel and Tommy rush out of the room, and they join the warband.

After a while, the battle ended, and the robbers were wiped out, and Joel and Don Tu made a great contribution, but Tommy's side still suffered heavy casualties.

Don Tu, Joel, and Tommy run out to find Ellie and Maria, who are also safe. Ellie was excited, and Joel calmed down for a while.

In the no-man's corner, Tommy was talking to Maria, and the others were not far away, and the voices next to them could be heard clearly.

“... No way, you tell him to go to someone else. Mary yelled angrily.

"Maria, I can't rest assured that they will go alone...", Tommy's tone was very helpless.

"Do you know how many people we're losing today?"

“……”

“... There's only one way, one dead end... You go to die, and then I'll be one of those widows, you know? ”

"I have to..."

Listening to Tommy and Maria's quarrel, Tang Tu looked embarrassed, but looking at Joel helplessly.

"Joel, I don't think it's okay for Tommy not to go, he told us the place, and the two of us can take Ellie as well." Tang Tu said.

"Tommy knows the area better than I do, and I trust him a little bit more than I believe in myself," Joel said.

"What do you mean? Won't you come with us? ”

"Tommy will take you."

“... Joel, how long are you going to run away? ”

"What did you say?"

"Do you think I can't see it? Everyone knows in their hearts that only you refuse to admit it... You're still blaming yourself for Sarah's death, aren't you, that's why you're against it from the beginning. ”

"What do you know?!"

"I know everything! It's been the three of us who have come all the way, and I know exactly what you've done, so I'm sure you're the best person to escort Ellie. ”

"Why do you trust me so much?"

"Because you can be trusted. Joel, it wasn't your fault back then, now Ellie needs you. Can't you see that she's very dependent on you, don't let her down. ”

Tommy and Maria talked, and it seemed that Maria failed to convince Tommy, so she walked up to Joel and said a harsh word and walked away.

Tommy led four horses out, and the group set off on horseback. When passing a house on the way, a group of thugs appears, and they are killed by Tang Tu, Joel, and Tommy.

After walking for a short time, they came to the outside of a village, and the four of them rode horses and stopped on a nearby hill. The village below has lights indicating that they have access to electricity. Although it looks much simpler than the abandoned villages you pass by, it has more life.

"That's our town, and the kids are going to the movies tonight." Tommy sighed as he looked at the village.

"Where is their lab?" Joel asked.

"Far away, at Eastern Colorado University." Tommy said.

Joel suddenly said to Ellie, "Ellie, get off your horse and give it back to Tommy." If you don't have an opinion, you can ride with me. ”

Ellie and Tommy froze for a moment, but Tang Tu immediately understood what Joel meant.

"What are you doing?" Tommy asked.

Joel pretended to be relaxed and said, "I'm scared by your wife, and I don't want to be pestered by her." ”

Ellie laughed and got off her horse and handed the reins to Tommy.

"At least let's go back to town first and discuss it before deciding." Tommy said.

"You know me, I've made up my mind," Joel said, "Eastern Colorado University, how am I going to find that lab?" ”

"In the Science Museum, it looks like a giant mirror, and you won't miss it." (To be continued.) )
