After that, I saw that he did not continue to walk back, but walked in the direction from which the gunshots came.

"Huh......?"

Seeing Lin Cheng's actions, Bai Ling was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly stopped him, "Where are you going?" Didn't you just say you'd go back? ”

Hearing Bai Ling's inquiry, Lin Cheng stopped, turned around and explained to her, "If you hadn't met a survivor, it would have been fine, but didn't you just happen to meet it?" Let's just arrive, if nothing else, at least we have to find out what the strength level of the country's capable people is like, right? Otherwise, what should I do if I encounter an emergency situation in the future? ”

"This ...... All right! ”

Hearing Lin Cheng's explanation, Bai Ling frowned, nodded after thinking for a moment, and said, "Although I am not very in favor of meeting those capable people now, intelligence gathering is indeed necessary for us, so let's do as you say!" ”

After saying that, he no longer hesitated, raised his steps and followed Lin Cheng.

Slowly approaching the location where the gunshots came from along the sidewalk on the side of the road, Lin Cheng was vigilant about the movements around him, and whispered to Bai Ling: "I just want to find out what the strength of the survivors in this city is and why this abnormal phenomenon occurs, it doesn't mean that I must have contact with them, you just need to do what I say for a while, don't act without permission, understand?" ”

"Understood!"

Hearing this, Bai Ling nodded slightly, the two had been cooperating for a while, and many things didn't need to be said explicitly to know what she should do.

A few minutes later, with a wave of Lin Cheng's arm, Bai Ling and Coke stopped at the same time, standing beside him without saying a word, waiting for the next instruction.

Looking up at the dilapidated residential building in front of him, Lin Cheng's eyes thought for a while, and after a while, he saw that he had a certain expression, and said to Bai Ling: "The gunshots should come from this residential building, you and Coke first find a hidden place nearby to hide, and I'll go in and investigate the situation." ”

After that, without waiting for Bai Ling to speak, Lin Cheng walked to the door and tried to push the door, and after finding that he couldn't push it open, he directly stretched out his right hand and put it on the door, controlling a cold ice to swim in the door lock behind the door.

"Click-"

A few seconds later, with a crisp sound of unlocking, the door that was locked from the inside was opened by Lin Cheng with cold ice!

"Go ahead, what's the situation."

Pushing open the door, Lin Cheng turned around and whispered an explanation to Bai Ling and Coke, and then walked into the building and locked the door again.

As soon as he walked into the building, Lin Cheng immediately felt that the temperature around him had risen a lot, and the wind howling in his ears and the snowflakes on his face disappeared at the same time, making him breathe a sigh of relief.

The light inside the building is very dim, and because the building itself is a bit old, and because the building is located in one of the more prosperous areas of Baikal City, the surrounding buildings are much denser than other places, so that almost all the lower floors of this residential building, which has a weak natural capacity, are in darkness.

Wrinkling his nose, Lin Cheng felt that the air quality in this building was not much stronger than the light, it seemed that it was to avoid the cold and keep warm, all the windows that Lin Cheng could see were all closed, and the air in the building was not circulating at all, he estimated that the current air quality here should be much better than the haze.

After getting used to it for a while, and after feeling that he could see the furnishings in the building clearly, Lin Cheng raised his steps and continued to walk into the depths.

Because it is an old-fashioned building, the first floor of this residential building can also be inhabited, Lin Cheng slowly walked along the corridor to the depths, while trying to gently push the doors on both sides of the corridor, and finally found that although these doors were not locked, the furniture and materials inside had already been swept away.

The walls on both sides of the corridor are extremely mottled, and the cobwebs in the corners of the walls are even more layered layer after layer, and even the cobwebs on the roof have hung down to the place where Lin Cheng can land, if it weren't for the low temperature now, Lin Cheng estimated that he should have been crawling all over his head by all kinds of cockroaches and spiders at this time.

However, Lin Cheng didn't go to a worse place than this, so he didn't care much, and after walking to the staircase at the end of the corridor, he didn't go upstairs directly, but squatted down and took out a mini flashlight from his pocket, and looked at it carefully according to the dust on the ground.

It's been almost a year since the end of the world, and without the cleaning of the cleaners and the trampling of the residents back and forth, a thick layer of dust has already accumulated on the ground of this corridor, even if Lin Cheng's movements are already very light when he walks, but it still raises a layer of foggy dust, choking him so much that he almost coughs.

Squatting on the ground and checking for a while, Lin Cheng nodded slightly, muttered something in his mouth, stood up, raised his feet and walked upstairs.

The dust on the ground, while a little choking, had a more important role to play, which was to prove whether there were survivors in the building.

Even a person of Lin Cheng's level of ability would not consume his physical strength for no reason on weekdays, so most of the time if he wanted to go out, he would choose to take the stairs instead of flying down from the stairs or something.

And the messy footprints in the center of the corridor also prove that this residential building is indeed inhabited, and looking at the signs of these footprints, Lin Cheng speculates that it should not be more than half a day, and the number of people should be about three or four.

Walking up the stairs slowly, I don't know if it was an illusion or what, the more Lin Cheng walked up, the more he felt that something was wrong in his heart, and he always felt that this dilapidated residential building was full of weirdness.

Going up to the second floor, Lin Cheng let go of the six senses and searched quickly, and after learning that no one existed on this floor, he continued to climb the stairs to the third floor.

This residential building is divided into nine floors, and due to the distance when he heard the gunshots before, Lin Cheng could not tell which floor the gunshots came from, so he could only investigate them layer by layer.

After a while, Lin Cheng, who had climbed to the sixth floor, suddenly felt that his vision was much clearer, and when he looked closely, he found that the light from the outside could already shine through the window unimpeded from the sixth floor.

The snow outside was still falling unhurriedly, just like Lin Cheng and their trip this time, I don't know when the day will come to an end.

In order to hide the traces below, Lin Cheng had never used a flashlight except to check the footprints, so he didn't know the details of the building very clearly, but now with the illumination of the light, all the situations in this residential building were clearly displayed in front of him.

The layout of the corridors in this residential building is very similar to that of the 80s and 90s in Huaguo, with a corridor running from west to east and lined with wooden doors, most of which have fallen into disrepair, as if they could be pushed apart with a single push.
