24- Residence of the homeless
After solving the bloody corpse, the captain stood up, looked at the direction of the street where the bloody corpse appeared, and couldn't help sighing: "Recently, the frequency of small-scale bloody corpses has become higher and higher, I don't know how many people in the south of the city have not evacuated." โ
The soldier who shot just now slapped his chest when he heard this: "No matter how many, we must hold out until all the people withdraw, and being a soldier is not to protect the family and defend the country." โ
The captain chuckled when he heard this, and then said, "Okay, don't talk so much, hurry up and report the situation to your superiors." โ
The warrior nodded in agreement: "Yes!" โ
With that, the warrior hurried away.
The captain continued to order the remaining soldiers not to be careless, and always be prepared for scattered blood corpses to attack the defense line, and asked the scouts to keep an eye on the movements of several large blood corpses in the south of the city.

In the dim sewer, Wang Yi didn't know how long he had walked, he only knew that he had stopped to eat canned food four times in the middle to replenish his strength.
Moreover, Lan Lan didn't walk fast because of her leg injury, she didn't look like Wang Yi could endure it, after all, every time she stepped on the ground, it was a pain in her heart.
Walking to the sewer interchange, the trio, who had been almost accustomed to the darkness, struggled to make their eyes wide to discern the direction.
Again, you can't tell the difference between east and west, north and south, and the three of them almost stared out their eyes, and they couldn't tell which direction they were going next.
"Little ghost, why don't we rest for a while, Sister Lan Lan can't go too far." After observing for a while, Yang Xiurong was the first to speak.
Lan Lan still wanted to force herself to say that she was fine, but she couldn't keep her body balanced at all because she relied on one leg to support her body weight, so she opened her mouth and sat down.
Wang Yi is not a person who is inconsiderate of his companions, and when he saw this, he agreed to Yang Xiurong's proposal.
The three of them sat down, Lan Lan looked very guilty, and kept apologizing and saying that it was all because of herself that she had delayed the journey.
In this regard, Wang Yi smiled freely and said that it didn't matter, anyway, the canned food he carried was enough for three people to eat for a week, and it was not a problem to be frugal, ten days was not a problem, this little time was nothing.
The more Wang Yiyue said this, the more Lan Lan felt that she was a drag oil bottle.
When he sat down to rest, Yang Xiurong also asked Wang Yi if he had any way to determine the direction.
"If you have a compass, I'll have a way to get the bearing."
Yang Xiurong looked surprised: "Can't you, aren't you a college student?" โ
Hearing this, Wang Yi was embarrassed: "Sister, you also know that I am just a college student?" Without a compass, I know the direction of a hammer. โ
As he spoke, Wang Yi leaned over and rested against the wall with his right arm.
The back of his left arm was injured and he couldn't bear too much pressure, so he had to rest in such an awkward position.
The three of them lay together, and no one spoke, but the sound of rats chirping was constantly heard nearby.
Resting on the front, if Yang Xiurong heard the sound of these mice, he was afraid that he would be frightened and screamed to beat the mice.
But now, she had seen even the rotting corpses, and some rats were afraid of something.
After resting for a while, Wang Yi suddenly stood up: "You guys rest here first, and I'll go and see the situation." โ
When the words came out, Yang Xiurong and Lan Lan were very surprised, especially the latter: "It depends on the situation? What do you mean? โ
Wang Yi raised his head and went up: "It's not okay to keep going like this, I'll go up and take a look at the direction, we are in the wrong place in the province." โ
"But it's all bloody corpses, little ghost, don't think about it, it's a big deal that I won't call you a little ghost in the future." Yang Xiurong said worriedly.
Hearing this, Wang Yi's forehead sweated: "Eldest sister, you can't think about it, I said it and didn't say that I really went up, I just quietly observed, don't worry." โ
Saying that, Wang Yi was about to leave, and if he wanted to leave, Lan Lan shouted to stop him.
As soon as he turned around, Wang Yi looked at Lan Lan in the dark, his face full of suspicion.
I saw that Lan Lan reached out and handed over the bone chopping knife: "Take it, be careful." โ
Seeing this, Wang Yi was a little moved, these days of life and death are accompanied, and the three of them have already developed a sense of companionship.
Reaching out to take the knife in his hand, Wang Yi patted his chest, turned and groped, looking for an upward exit.
He walked about 100 meters and found a well on the left-hand side of his original position.
Wang Yi looked up, opened his mouth and bit the handle of the knife, grabbed the iron ladder with his right hand, and climbed up step by step, after reaching the apex, Wang Yi did not open the manhole cover recklessly, but waited quietly for a while, and after making sure that there was no abnormal movement on it, he quietly pushed open a gap in the manhole cover above his head, through the gap, Wang Yi observed the situation on the street.
As expected, the streets were dilapidated and desolate, with blood-stained cars parked horizontally, and from the open doors, you could clearly see the remaining skeleton of the driver inside.
All kinds of plastic bags and wrappers fluttered in the air, and the blue asphalt road had already been soaked in blood and turned black.
The scorching sun was high in the sky, warm, and it should have been a harmonious day for young people to go to work and struggle, children to study, and old people to bask in the sun, but it was filled with blood corpses.
Countless bloody corpses roamed aimlessly through the streets, some even standing like wooden carvings.
The occasional bird flying, and the movement of cats and dogs scurrying past, will make these corpse and emotionless monsters reactive.
Wang Yi observed all this, looked at the city streets full of gloomy atmosphere, he looked at the road signs and remembered his current position, and then, quietly, quietly, moved his body down, without making any sound, and covered the manhole cover above his head.
Returning to the cold and gloomy sewer, Wang Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief, for some reason, he felt that the cold, dark and damp sewer was much warmer than the sun-filled ground.
Stepping down the stairs step by step, Wang stepped on the soft and damp steps, his heart was slightly settled, and he carried the knife and turned to the place where he had been.
It's just that when Wang Yi returned to the place where he left, Lan Lan and Yang Xiurong were gone, and not only that, but even the canned food was gone.
Immediately, Wang Yi was stunned, and then he was shocked.
Where did the people go?
Could it be that you have encountered a bloody corpse? Impossible, if it's a bloody corpse, why didn't you hear a single sound?
Or did Lan Lan and Yang Xiurong put down the two of them and ran away?
The moment this idea popped up in his heart, Wang Yi immediately shook his head and vetoed it.
If they had the idea, they could have done it as early as the back kitchen of the hotel.
Since they didn't encounter a bloody corpse, they didn't leave themselves and left first, so where did they go?
There were all kinds of anxiety in my heart, and as soon as I was in a hurry, I began to hurt with the wound on my back and my left arm.
Wang Yi gritted his teeth and endured the pain, still holding a knife in his right hand.
He took a few deep breaths of the turbid air from the sewers and forced himself to calm down.
At this moment, Wang Yi suddenly caught a glimpse of a bright light coming from the corner of his eye.
Seeing this, Wang Yi was directly stunned, and hurriedly turned his head to look in the direction of the bright light.
As far as the eye could see, there was only a slight light, like a flame.
And, as the flames lit, the shadows of two women were cast onto the wall.
Wang Yi recognized who these two shadows were, Lan Lan and Yang Xiurong!
When he found the second daughter, Wang Yi immediately pulled his legs forward, and even, in a hurry, he went down the steps and walked in the water.
With a loud noise, Wang Yi came to a hole in the wall that was recessed inward.
When he arrived at the place, Lan Lan and Yang Xiurong were standing there supporting each other, holding a Zippo lighter in their hands, and they were lighting a fire.
Hearing the voice, the second daughter turned around and saw that it was Wang Yi, and her face showed joy: "Wang Yi (little ghost), you are back, how are you, what did you see when you went up?" โ
Wang Yi did not answer, but looked at the second daughter with a brow, with a look of displeasure.
Being stared at by Wang Yi like this, the second daughter snorted, and at the same time felt a little stunned.
No matter what you say, it is indeed an inauthentic thing for the two of them to leave quietly.
No, being watched by Wang Yi, the two daughters bowed their heads at the same time, and they all looked like good babies who had admitted their mistakes.
"Why didn't you wait for me?" Wang Yi asked.
As soon as he said this, Yang Xiu's eyebrows danced: "Little ghost, let me tell you, this place is a treasure, I..."
Halfway through the words, Yang Xiurong noticed Wang Yi's death gaze, immediately swallowed saliva and lowered his head, and said embarrassedly: "That, that, we can't be blamed for this, not long after you left, we heard the sound of an alarm clock, so let's come over to see what's going on." โ
Lan Lan also spoke beside her: "Yes, Wang Yi, you see what we found, lighters, in this way, we are not afraid of smearing again." โ
Lan Lan's words reminded Wang of the lighter, so he went over and took the lighter from Lan Lan's hand and said, "How can there be a lighter in this place?" And you found it? โ
Yang Xiurong snorted and pinched her waist: "What do you mean, why can't we find it?" Didn't I tell you, we heard the alarm bell. โ
"Alarm?" Wang Yi was stunned.
Yang Xiurong nodded and handed over a cartoon alarm clock, which was still in the shape of a robot cat, but it was a little broken: "Oh, I don't believe you." โ
Wang Yi was even more surprised, and returned the lighter to Lan Lan to pick up the alarm clock.
When he looked here, Lan Lan and Yang Xiurong also pointed to other objects in the hole in the wall and introduced: "It's not just lighters and alarm clocks, there are also dishes, chopsticks, bedding or something in this place, it's just a little dirty." โ
Following the direction of Lan Lan and Yang Xiurong's fingers, Wang Yi looked over, and this look was really the case.
After five or six seconds of effort, Wang Yi realized something, and his face changed greatly: "It's broken!" Let's go! โ
The second daughter didn't understand, and asked Wang Yi what was going on.
Wang Yi gritted his teeth: "This place was supposed to be the residence of the homeless before. โ
"The homeless are the homeless, what are you afraid of." Yang Xiurong was still very indifferent and said: "Besides, there is no one here." โ
When Yang Xiurong said these words, Wang Yi was even more anxious, and his voice was raised.
"You know what! Do you know if this homeless man's corpse has turned into a bloody corpse? In our current state, even if there is only one bloody corpse, we will all die! โ
