"Knock, knock, knock." As usual, it is three long and two short, two short and three long.

It's just that after the two sets of codes are all tapped, the expected sound of the door opening does not appear.

Huo Yuankai was unwilling to knock again, but the result was still the same.

Huo Yuankai wanted to come again, but this time the follow-up Huabiao stopped the man's movements.

The situation is already obvious, if the child does come back, there is no reason to never open the door when the code is clear.

Unless......

Pulling Huo Yuankai over, Huabiao paced forward, then leaned down, dodged the cat's eye observation port, and peeked in against the door panel.

After a moment, he withdrew his ears, his face becoming more solemn.

No movement was heard!

Then there are three possibilities, one is that the child does come back, but the door cannot be opened due to external factors.

Again, there are two possible factors:

First, they are all zombies, but there is no response when they hit the house, so they can be roughly ruled out.

Second, being held hostage by others, resulting in restrictions on movement.

Another possibility is that the child did not come back, and someone else was staying in the house.

In the end, there was no one in the house.

It's just that at the moment, Huabiao has no way to determine the specific situation.

That being the case, he had to assume that all possibilities existed.

"Brother Huo, don't move yet, I'll go down and tell the brother about the situation here. When I get back, we're going further! OK？ "I know that it is impossible to pull Huo Yuankai away now. Therefore, Huabiao can only take measures to stabilize the other party.

Huo Yuankai didn't say anything and nodded, but twitched the corners of his lips. Huabiao still saw the man's anxiety.

"Remember, don't wait until I get back!" In the end, I blessed it all over, and Huabiao went downstairs.

The situation upstairs can be seen clearly by Hu Xiaodong and the others who are waiting below.

They all saw Huo Yuankai knocking on the door. There was no response in the house.

"How about Huazi, did you just hear any movement?" As soon as Huabiao's side settled, Hu Xiaodong immediately asked.

"No, no sound."

"That's ......"

"Later, I will ask Huo Yuankai to open the security door, you are still here, if there is a situation, let's not fight. Withdraw directly to the car. Oh, by the way, Brother Hu, can you use the surveillance you just installed? I can take it out and take a look. Check out what's going on outside. ”

Hearing this, Hu Xiaodong reached into his trouser pocket and took out a portable tablet.

Swipe the screen, and the software that you have started is still running in the background.

It's a simple operation. Hu Xiaodong's remote control camera made a 360-degree rotation.

A factual image of the factual feedback through the camera. Hu Xiaodong confirmed that there was nothing unusual on the streets outside.

"Okay, keep watching!" Huabiao, who received the reply, was a little determined, if the street outside was fine, it could at least mean that he was not being watched.

In this way, the odds of a battle are a few more points.

But regardless of the external factors, Huabiao still cheered up, and then withdrew and returned to the second floor again.

Huo Yuankai did not act rashly according to Huabiao's instructions as promised, but his anxiety did not decrease at all.

He is not stupid, he also analyzes a series of inferences.

Whatever the instructions. As far as he is concerned, they don't want to see it.

"Brother Huo. When you open the door later, you have to stay calm and don't be impulsive. I know you must be worried about the whereabouts of your children right now. But for the sake of you, and the safety of the children, you listen, after entering the house, we have to move forward slowly, and check the house one by one. Remember, only by living can you have the capital to talk about anything else. If you die, the boy will have hope. Don't forget, your son is still waiting for you. ”

deliberately mentioned the "son", and sure enough, Huabiao's careful opportunity achieved the intended purpose.

After Huo Yuankai heard this, his right hand holding the knife shook unconsciously.

Seeing such a scene, Huabiao knew that it could act.

"Okay, Brother Huo, remember what I said! Let's cooperate with each other and open the door! Dodging to the side, Huabiao held a knife in his right hand, and took out the 54 hand Q that had already been loaded in his left hand, and then pointed at the door lock, signaling Huo Yuankai to make a move.

Without half a minute of hesitation, Huo Yuankai, who had been waiting for a long time, took out the key, skillfully inserted it into the lock hole, and with the gentle rotation of his fingertips, the sound of a series of locks turning sounded immediately.

subconsciously tightened the weapon in his hand, and when the door lock was completely opened, Huabiao immediately dragged Huo Yuankai and pulled him behind him.

This is a habitual action, and as the market wants to participate in the protection of hostages and the rescue of key personnel, it has become a fighting instinct to protect others.

Therefore, a series of reactions are completely the instinct formed by the body's own body for many years of exercise.

The knife gently opened the hidden door, and at the same time, the door let out a terrible howl without accident.

This is undoubtedly something that the survivors do not want to hear.

But now, Huabiao doesn't care about this, on the contrary, the appearance of this sound is equivalent to reminding the people in the house that if it is a zombie, they should act at this moment.

However, after the noise, the room was still calm and unmoving.

Huabiao waited for about ten seconds, and then scanned the room to confirm that there was nothing unusual in the living room, and then gestured to Huo Yuankai and told him that he could enter.

Following Huabiao, Huo Yuankai quickly rushed into the house, and then the two of them advanced towards the inner room little by little according to the previous agreement.

Fortunately, the area of this residence is not large, and it will not take long for the investigation to be completed.

As a result, there was no one in the house, and Hua Biao breathed a sigh of relief, but Huo Yuankai stood on the ground a little distracted.

Considering that the brothers downstairs were still waiting, Huabiao did not comfort the lonely man and turned to the outsider.

When he came back, he stepped forward and patted Huo Yuankai on the shoulder, sighed, and persuaded lightly: "There is no news, it is often the best news, Brother Huo, the child is not there, but it doesn't mean that something happened to them, maybe they are still hiding somewhere outside." ”

"Yes, before you see anyone, there is still hope, Brother Huo, you can't collapse now."

Having said that, Hu Xiaodong and Huabiao are all clear that in this abandoned city in the last days, a day has passed, and even if they are really hiding somewhere, how long can they hold out without water and food? The answer is undoubtedly not optimistic.

After listening to Huabiao and Hu Xiaodong's persuasion, Tang Xiaoquan frowned slightly.

Yes, there is indeed hope for the child to have no news. But in the current situation, Tang Xiaoquan didn't want everyone to give Huo Yuankai any more hope.

It's not that Tang Xiaoquan is ruthless, it's just that they still have more important tasks to do now.

If for the sake of that illusory hope, then go to the streets to find it.

Wasting fuel aside, time alone doesn't allow it.

Besides, there are priorities, in Tang Xiaoquan's eyes, no matter how pitiful the child is, he can't reach Lei Tong, Xu Renjie's life is important.

After all, the latter was their brother, and the two children were just strangers. (To be continued.) )
