Volume II, The Boundary of the Mirror 163, The World Is Still Quiet
One of the characteristics of Suzaku City is that there are many rivers.
It can be said that Suzaku City is the largest among the cities with many rivers, and among such a megacity with a population of more than 20 million, Suzaku City has the largest number of rivers.
There are many rivers and bridges, all kinds, advanced, modern, antique, highway, railway, road and railway...... There are a variety of bridges. There are also many boats in the river, large and small, and there are all kinds of them, and the main river of Suzaku City also has an estuary, and on that big river, you can naturally see sea ships and even warships.
At this time, Li Hao and Zhao Ji stopped at a bungee jumping platform by the river to rest, this place used to be an Internet celebrity attraction, but then there was an accident, and it became unpatronized, for Li Hao and Zhao Ji, now is the best place to stay. Not only can't zombies climb up, but there is also a lounge, although there is nothing in it, at least there is a sofa to lie on, and the sight is particularly good, you can see a large area of the surroundings.
"Li Hao, can we leave my foot alone?" Zhao Ji couldn't help but plead in a low voice when he saw Li Hao spread out his ugly burden and pick out alcohol and gauze from the pile of food inside. She was afraid of itching and pain, and even more of itching than pain, but the feeling of rubbing alcohol on the wound on the sole of her foot was so sour that she looked at the foot that had been soaked in gauze with blood, and she felt an urge to ignore it.
Moreover, although there is no talk of whether men and women give or receive kisses these days, and it is not that someone touched her feet and had to add it to him, but she still has a strange feeling when Li Hao holds her feet in her hands.
"Don't talk nonsense, I'm not afraid that you will hold me back?" Li Hao sat next to Zhao Ji, rested her feet on his legs, and began to remove the gauze on her feet, to be honest, the denim shorts Zhao Ji was wearing were really short, her legs were really long and beautiful, he only had to focus on her feet, so he wouldn't think about it at this time.
"Li Hao, don't be arrogant!" When Zhao Ji heard Li Hao actually say that he was afraid that she would drag her feet, he almost laughed angrily...... Then she really laughed, and almost cried again, this damn injury, what's wrong with the injury? If you want to hurt the soles of your feet, even if you beat Li Hao into a pig's head, you will be embarrassed and thrown to your grandmother's house.
Li Hao helped Zhao Ji bandage it, and silently walked at the front of the bungee jumping platform, looking at the quiet city in the distance without saying a word.
Zhao Ji looked at his back, and originally had an urge to kick him down, but when she saw Li Hao open his arms and seemed to be about to jump down, she suddenly had a panic that her heart was about to jump out of her chest, and she wanted to shout, but she was afraid of stimulating him, so she didn't do anything, and disappeared from her eyes again.
She looked at Li Hao so nervously, so nervous that she seemed to be out of breath.
Fortunately, after a while, Li Hao put down his hands, turned his head and smiled a little wickedly at Zhao Ji, as if he had seen through Zhao Ji's mind without looking back, and asked, "What?" Nervous? ”
"Cut!" Zhao Ji's heart fell back to the far place, but he said indifferently: "What are you nervous about?" Your life is your own, if you want to lose it like this, I can only say that it is better to go...... Wait, I don't think your life is just your own. ”
Li Hao turned around, took two steps back, and asked, "My life is not mine, what do you mean?" I don't belong to this world in the first place, and besides, I don't have any relatives for a long time, so there's nothing wrong with saying that I don't have to worry about anything. ”
Zhao Ji waved his hand and said, "I'm not telling you this. Didn't you find out for yourself? Your current physique should have changed a lot, your eyesight, hearing, smell, or your five senses have become very sharp, your nervous reaction speed is much faster than before, I just kicked you on the rooftop, you are just because of inexperience, in fact, your speed is enough to dodge, and the speed of your running, your physical strength limit is very surprising to me. Do you think scientists have also modified you when they studied you before? Or have you been infected several times, and your constitution has developed a benign fusion with the virus? ”
Li Hao looked at Zhao Ji with a black line on his face and asked, "So you think it's necessary to sell me to scientists again?" ”
Zhao Ji grinned and said, "What are you talking about?" I don't take any money, and I'm going to send you to scientists for research again. ”
Li Hao said angrily: "I'm not yours, why should I let you send it?" ”
Zhao Ji stuck out his tongue, and then said seriously: "The change in your body is very gratifying, which increases your chances of surviving in the apocalypse, so I just want to tell you that other people are still trying to live, and you can't give up easily." Also, if you can really find a way to fight the virus or even fuse the virus from you, it is also necessary to sacrifice the ego for the sake of more people. ”
Li Hao looked at Zhao Ji lightly and asked, "Where are the others?" Where are the more people? ”
One sentence suddenly left Zhao Ji speechless.
At this time, the sun was sinking in the west, and they stood on the high bungee jumping platform, watching the whole city enveloped in the afterglow of the setting sun. The river below the bungee platform is sparkling, and there are many boats at the water's edge, which are quietly moored there. From a distance, there were many cars parked on the street, and the neon lights on the tall buildings in the distance gradually lit up again, but more buildings fell into darkness, and the warm lights that should have been lit up after night were silent in the void without an owner.
No one can be seen.
No one can be seen alive.
Because there are more unsafe factors at night, and if Zhao Ji's foot collapses again, there will not be enough alcohol gauze to use, so Li Hao and Zhao Ji simply decided to stay in the lounge on this bungee jumping platform to sleep for one night before leaving.
But maybe they slept in the hospital for too long, and they really didn't have much to do, so they had a hard time sleeping, and then they chatted one by one, until no one wanted to talk, and they just kept their eyes open and looked at the night sky outside. Later, a drizzle began to fall in the sky, and the sound of the rain made the whole city seem quieter. When it was almost dawn, they finally fell asleep in a daze with the sound of rain.
I didn't sleep too long, and soon woke up in the sunny weather after the rain.
The world is still quiet.
"By the way," Li Hao remembered that they had been chatting for so long yesterday, but they had forgotten some of the most important questions, so he asked again: "Do you know what day of the month it is and what time it is?" ”
Zhao Ji thought back for a moment and said, "When I unlocked the computer yesterday, I seemed to see that the date was August 14th. ”
Li Hao thought for a moment and said: "So, it's been a month since I came to this world, and the virus infection occurred almost the day after I came to this world, and it's been a month. Within a month, people who are not immune to airborne viruses should have all been infected, and those who survive should be immune to airborne viruses. I just don't know what the percentage of survivors can be. ”
Zhao Ji didn't know this problem, and they didn't have any channels to understand it now. I just feel that the world is dead silent, and it will even make them feel that the world is only lonely with each other.
Li Hao looked at the silent Zhao Ji and said with a smile: "At least, we are not alone, right?" ”
After Li Hao finished speaking, he took some biscuits and chocolates out and ate them for two people, and then put his huge ugly burden on his back, and the two of them climbed down from the bungee jumping platform. They did not dare to go to the streets that were originally lively, so they walked along the secluded places by the river. Zhao Ji's goal is to go to the home of the Police Academy in District 4, they are now on the edge of District 3 near District 4, if there is a car, it is not far, even if it is walking, it is enough to walk in a whole day.
But the problem is that their journey is not an easy one.
After walking a few kilometers along the river, they came to a pedestrian street with many shops, many selling tourist souvenirs and a section selling sporting goods. Maybe it's because the virus outbreak is early in the morning, the shops on this street are not open, and there are not many zombies on the street. But no matter how few zombies there are, it is not that they can push them over with two pieces of triangle iron, Li Hao and Zhao Ji can only walk around and hide, while avoiding zombies, while searching for stores that are useful to them.
They really found it, they hid in the pedestrian street, and found a row of outdoor sports brand stores connected together, all the streets, all kinds of domestic and foreign brands, just look at the store and decoration, it is likely to be a high imitation.
Of course, Li Hao and Zhao Ji don't care whether these stores sell genuine or high-quality imitations, although these stores are locked, but this is difficult for Zhao Ji, as a policeman, picking locks seems to be a compulsory course for her? In short, Li Hao was surprised to see Zhao Ji tear out a wire from a billboard next to the door, and then used the wire to pry open a store with the Arc'teryx brand.
When you enter, the store looks small on the outside, but it is deep and open inside, and the light inside is a little dim because there are no lights. Just when Zhao Ji went to find the power switch, Li Hao smelled something, and then he grabbed ahead of Zhao Ji and blocked a zombie that should have been mutated by the staff on duty in the store.
After Li Hao used the triangle iron to solve the zombie, Zhao Ji also found the power switch, and as soon as the light turned on, the two of them looked at each other and smiled, both with a rich expression. There are all kinds of clothing, shoes and bags, and all kinds of field tools, compared to the embarrassment of picking up zombie clothes before, this is simply like heaven.
Soon the two of them changed all the things on their bodies from the inside, and by the way, they also used two mountaineering packages to pack several sets of replacement clothes and shoes, even including mountaineering ropes, camping lights, portable stoves, and tableware. The only regret is that there are no weapons here, although there are also some things like multi-functional sapper shovels and survival knives, but these things are not bad for outdoor life, but they are not so easy to use against zombies. At this time, Li Hao missed the military straight knife he got at 7 places in the 14th game, which was the killing weapon he was very good at.
The two thieves (one of whom was still a policeman-turned-thief) couldn't take anything before they reluctantly prepared to leave. But just as they walked to the door, they suddenly heard a rush of footsteps from the street outside, Zhao Ji's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said, "Hurry up!" There's someone out there! ”
Li Hao couldn't help but smile bitterly, do you think that someone must be a good thing?
Well, nothing worse is there.
Li Hao followed Zhao Ji, and as soon as they opened the door, they saw several people running in their direction.
Li Hao's eyesight is excellent, and when he sees a person from a distance, he is not calm in an instant.
