Chapter 233: The Dead and Silent County Town
Driving the car, Chen Xin slowly entered the silent and somewhat excessive county town in front of him.
The county town was too quiet, and Chen Xin couldn't feel the feeling and atmosphere that the county was still alive.
Although the radar on the car was broken, and Chen Xin couldn't repair it because of a hand injury, the drones in the car were still good, and their infrared shooting function was enough to capture all the heat sources in this small county.
When Chen Xin drove through Chibi before, even the heat emitted from the vents of the hot spring resorts outside the city could be captured by drones, and Chen Xin didn't think that the shelter in this small county town could avoid the drone's search.
But now the county is indeed a dead silence, completely gray under the infrared vision of the drone, without the slightest color.
"Damn, shouldn't the people in this county be dead......" Chen Xin felt a little headache, if this is the case, then the problem will be serious.
Of course, Chen Xin also hoped that he had thought too much, after all, such a large county, although it is a small county compared to other places, and there are not even a few high-rise buildings, but according to the regulations of Yanguo, even such a county must have at least eight air defense facilities to accommodate the population to evacuate, and no matter how miserable it is after the disaster comes, it will not mean that everyone is dead.
As for the disaster, although the highway traffic was cut off and Chen Xin did not find a train station in the city, he never thought that the people in this county would not be able to survive alone.
Just looking at the dead and silent city in front of him, Chen Xin still felt that something was wrong.
Pulling up the map of the county before the disaster from the operating table, Chen Xin marked the county government, hospitals and the largest shopping mall in the county according to the signs on the map, and he planned to use the drone to search these places first.
If there are any survivors in this county, these three places are the most likely.
However, the drone turned around in these three places several times, and even the battery was about to run out, and there was still nothing to find.
Not only was there no source of heat to be found, but the ground was covered in a thick layer of snow, with no trace of human activity.
"It's not really a dead city, is it? It's impossible! Chen Xin looked at the picture captured by the drone in front of him, and really couldn't figure out what was going on.
Even if there is a shortage of materials and food in this county, it is only half a year after the end of the world, and the traffic is cut off after the cooling, and this period of time is not half a year, and it is impossible for the people in the county to die in such a short time.
But where have all the people gone? Chen Xin really couldn't figure it out.
He summoned two reconnaissance drones back to recharge, intending to use the two combat drones to search for them again.
However, before releasing the combat drones, Chen Xin thought for a moment and controlled the two combat drones to stop outside the car door.
Put on his protective suit, opened the car door, and the cold air rushed in all of a sudden, making Chen Xin feel cold, but he still upgraded the two drones and installed them with life detection modules, and then closed the car door again.
Rubbing his arm that felt cold, Chen Xin returned to the cab, took a sip of hot water, and continued to operate the drone to search the entire county.
This time, though, things seem to be a little different.
There is still no one in the direction of the county government, but there is a new discovery in the direction of the shopping mall.
After the upgrade, there is a life detection module on the combat drone, which can search for signs of life within a radius of 500 meters, and after the upgrade, Chen Xin found that there are still several signs of life in the underground garage of the mall.
And one of them seems to be leaving the underground garage and wants to go somewhere else.
This made Chen Xin interested, and after flying a drone into the mall, he found a clean place and landed to monitor the few signs of life that were still left in the underground garage, Chen Xin controlled the other drone and followed the signs of life that left, wanting to see what was going on.
The people who left did not choose to go out of the city or find a random place to hide, but walked in the direction of the hospital.
"Is someone sick looking for medicine?" Chen Xin looked at the figure captured by the drone's infrared camera and became interested in the purpose of this person, but he still wondered: "But in such a big county, how can there be so many living people?" ”
Although the county seat in front of you is only a small county, but even so, it seems that there should be at least a hundred thousand people, even if disaster strikes most of the people die, but in such a large county, it is impossible for only a few people to survive.
Maybe the answer lies in these people, but for now, let's figure out what this person is doing in the hospital, if there are doctors among these survivors, Chen Xin feels that he can't help them, as long as they have the ability to treat their fractures.
Under the surveillance of the drone, the figure entered the abandoned hospital with some difficulty.
The figure seems to be familiar with the hospital, and after entering, he does not search everywhere, but goes straight to his target, searching for what he is looking for.
"It seems to be someone from the hospital, maybe a doctor." Chen Xin saw the identity of the other party from the actions of the figure, at least it should be someone who had worked in this hospital, otherwise he would not be so familiar with this hospital.
Through the footage captured by the drone, Chen Xin noticed the other party's forward route, if it was someone who was not familiar with the hospital, he might search room by room, but this person obviously knew the route and knew what he was looking for, and he did not hesitate to move forward.
"This hospital has been burned down, and now it is almost frozen into a lump of ice, what is he looking for? Does anyone get sick and need medicine? Chen Xin stared at the display screen on the console, touched his chin and had an idea.
He flew in through the broken windows of the hospital and circled behind the figure in a few clicks.
The figure apparently heard the sound of the drone's propellers, and looked back at the drone in horror like a frightened rabbit, apparently startled by the sudden appearance of the drone.
Chen Xin turned on the searchlight on the drone, the snow-white light illuminated the figure, the other party only had a small flashlight in his hand before, and the sudden bright light made the person hurriedly raise his hand to cover his eyes, and wanted to turn around and run away.
But Chen Xin, who finally found a living person, obviously wouldn't let the other party run away like this, so he controlled the drone to directly block the other party's way, and picked up the walkie-talkie on the car and shouted through the loudspeaker on the drone: "Don't run, there is a gun on this drone." ”
Hearing Chen Xin's shout, the figure froze in place, looking at Chen Xin's figure in disbelief, not knowing what to do.
