Chapter 56: Recruitment
Obviously, Zhang Xiaolei hadn't detached himself from the past he had experienced, and he didn't listen to the plan that he had just planned to search for objects beside him, just leaning on the sofa and staring there, everyone thought he was asleep at first, so they didn't bother him.
Zhang Weimin looked at Zhang Xiaolei who came back to his senses and said: "That's the case, we plan to divide this mission into three groups, you and I still have Da Zhuang, the three of us go to the police force to find the signal enhancement receiver, Yin Chenbao and Sun Yijun are responsible for finding the computer and power supply, Chen Wanru and Guo Lin are responsible for staying in the hut to guard the X reagent, basically this is the arrangement, you see what else you have to add." ”
Zhang Xiaolei re-lit a cigarette and said: "Everything is up to your arrangement, Team Zhang, but I must say a few points, we not only have to face the attack of zombies, but also evade the capture of Scar Man, and most importantly, Reagent X must be protected, otherwise our previous operation will be wasted." ”
After getting everyone's approval, Zhang Xiaolei arranged a place for everyone to rest, saying that it was a place, but in fact, it was not that big, and there were a lot of wine bottles or something at home, that is, everyone found a vacant space, or leaned or lay down to sleep, and after watching the team members in front of him find a place to rest, Zhang Xiaolei went to the second floor as usual, and he wanted to incense his relatives.
Zhang Weimin couldn't sleep, he stood up, walked out of the second floor alone, sat on the motorcycle parked at the door, smoked, looked up at the starry sky, the faces of the sacrificed team members appeared in front of his eyes, thinking about the death of them from them, in less than a month, he experienced everything that he had not experienced in the army for more than ten years, and he was ready to sacrifice when he chose to protect his family and defend the country, but when the sacrifice really happened around him, he became very fragile and difficult to face.
He smoked a cigarette, thinking about the new task he was about to perform, and a very profound problem came to his mind, that is, the problem of the number of team members, the 9 members of Group K who entered the city together at the beginning, now only the heavy weapons collaborator Da Zhuang, the assault Guo Lin, the communication soldier Yin Chenbao, the team doctor Chen Wanru and himself, plus the new technical leader Sun Yijun, there are only 6 people in total, and the current situation is not like when he first entered the city, as long as the zombies are eliminated and the trapped people are rescued. The power of 6 people is far from enough.
He really wanted to summon Zhang Xiaolei to join at this time, but he had only met Zhang Xiaolei a few times before, he was not as approachable as his brother Zhang Xiaolei, Zhang Xiaolei was the kind of person with strong individual ability, he didn't like to cooperate, and often went alone, so he didn't seem so confident in calling him into the team.
Just thinking about it, Zhang Xiaolei walked out of the house with a cigarette in his mouth, he put the cigarette in his mouth, then wiped his messy hair with his hand, walked to the motorcycle, saw Zhang Weimin who was smoking, and nodded at him.
Zhang Weimin jumped off the motorcycle, walked to Zhang Xiaolei's side and asked, "Why don't you leave?" ”
"It's not all the same when you go out, alone." Zhang Xiaolei took a puff of his cigarette.
"You can start a new life, your family shouldn't want to see you like this, right?" Zhang Weimin asked.
"I can't see it for a long time." Zhang Xiaolei said without raising his head.
"If you hadn't met us, what would you have planned?" Zhang Weimin continued to ask.
"Do you want to hear the truth?" Zhang Xiaolei looked at Zhang Weimin, who did not respond to him, and continued: "If I hadn't met you, I would have been able to continue to live my life here, fishing, looking for supplies, killing zombies, I don't know how idle my life is, anyway, I am alone." ”
"Is this really what you want?"
"Brother, life is not something I want to achieve according to my requirements, in fact, I don't have any plans now, maybe disappearing with the government's doomsday plan in this city that left me memories is also a good ending, at least I can be reunited with my family." Zhang Xiaolei took out a wine jug from his waist and took a sip, handed Zhang Weimin and said, "Do you want to take a sip?" ”
Zhang Weimin shook his hand and said, "Maybe the ending won't be as we thought." ”
"What do you mean by that?" Zhang Xiaolei asked puzzled.
"Isn't what we're doing now just to change the outcome!" Zhang Weimin seemed confident.
"Maybe, who knows." Zhang Xiaolei picked up the flask and took another sip, and continued: "By the way, how sure are you about this operation? ”
"Now that it's planned, my goal is to complete it!" Zhang Weimin said.
Zhang Xiaolei shook his head and said with a smile: "To be honest, I'm not very sure, the zombie group near the police force is waiting for you to see it, you will know, just the three of us, hehe, it is indeed enough to choke." ”
Hearing Zhang Xiaolei say this, Zhang Weimin was unhappy, he didn't like someone to be so negative before the mission, no one had done this when he was in the field army before, and now he didn't lead the doomsday action team, the team members were very active every time they performed the task, without any fear, timidity, or confidence, so he was a little dissatisfied with Zhang Xiaolei's attitude at this time, but fortunately, there were only two of them at this time, and he didn't want to affect everyone's morale because of these words.
Zhang Weimin didn't have the heart to argue with him at this time, he just replied lightly: "The police force is our only hope now, and there is only this way to go." ”
"Haha" Zhang Xiaolei laughed for no reason, and then continued: "You are really still the same Zhang Weimin, the things you decide cannot be changed, okay, I like your personality, if I am infected tomorrow, you must give me a shot here, First Field Soldier!" As he spoke, he pointed to his eyebrows.
Looking at Zhang Xiaolei, who was a little self-deprecating, Zhang Weimin asked coldly: "Join us, we need manpower now, let go of the previous one, and go with us to uncover the conspiracy behind it." ”
The wine jug that Zhang Xiaolei was about to take another sip was stopped by him, stunned for about 3 seconds, and then he continued to pour the wine into his mouth, and then said: "I don't have any special skills, why do you want me to join?" ”
"I think you must also have a grudge in your heart for the harm caused to you by the X reagent, do you want to see more people hurt by the X reagent and more families broken?" Zhang Weimin looked at Zhang Xiaolei's side face and said.
Zhang Xiaolei turned his head and looked at this little man in the dark, he didn't know how to answer him for a while, the faces of the family members who were mentioned resurfaced in his mind again, he missed his parents, wife and daughter, he missed him all the time, and even he often regretted that he had worked overtime that day, if he hadn't let his mother go to inject X reagent, then all this would not have happened, he must have been successfully rescued with his family now, and he is driving a new life in another strange city, It's a pity that there are no ifs.
Zhang Xiaolei looked at Zhang Weimin like this, Zhang Weimin knew that he was doing an ideological struggle, and he would not interject at this time, he wanted to give Zhang Xiaolei his own thinking and making a choice, this is a man's own business, then he must make a correct choice for himself.
After looking at Zhang Weimin for about 1 minute, Zhang Xiaolei said: "You asked me about this in the garage you created first, I didn't answer you at the time, but I also considered it when I went back, in this apocalyptic environment, the strength of the team is indeed stronger than the ability of the individual, I am usually a loner, I have not considered cooperation before, I have talked with you for so long, you did make me want to open a lot, some things are time to let go, even if it is for my family, I have to work hard, as for the result, Whatever, people are inherently brutal anyway, you say yes, hahahahaha, okay, I'll join your Doomsday Action Group! ”
Zhang Weiminyou was dissatisfied with Zhang Xiaolei's words at the beginning to hear that he was willing to join, he was extremely happy, here he needs more brothers too much, everyone is indeed stronger than going alone, and there is such a capable brother in front of him to help, it is indeed better, he immediately snatched the wine jug in Zhang Xiaolei's hand, took a sip and said: "Then it's decided, you are now a full member of our Doomsday Action Group, you are welcome to join." After speaking, he returned the wine jug to Zhang Xiaolei.
As a result, Zhang Xiaolei of the wine jug also smiled and said, "Okay, but I have a condition." ”
"Okay, you say, as long as I can do it, I will definitely agree!"
"Whether you Zhang Weimin is in the field army, or when you are restored to the police force, I have heard of your glorious deeds, I have never been worried about your ability, which is one of the reasons why I decided to join, so since I joined your group, I hope that our task must be completed, no matter for whom, we must find out this final organization, even if I am unfortunately sacrificed, you have to go to the best, as long as you can promise me this, I am a member of your group." Zhang Xiaolei said what was in his heart.
"Since you are very familiar with my past, then you must know that the current me will not be much worse than the past, so I will definitely agree to this request of yours, because this is also my purpose, the purpose of our Doomsday Operation Team brothers." Zhang Weimin said firmly: "And you don't always say that you can't die, I don't want my team members to have any more losses, you must give me a complete group to go out together!" ”
"Okay, bright, come, drink!" Saying that, Zhang Xiaolei took a sip of wine and gave the wine jug to Zhang Weimin.
Scar Man's factory camp
At this time, it was midnight, although the fire had already been extinguished, but the air was still filled with the smell of burning, and the staff and guards in the factory area were still busy cleaning up the mess after the fire.
Scar Man did not return to camp tonight, but was in the safe zone intending to spend the night with the crowd there.
Qi Linlin, who was cleaning up the ruins with the others, seemed a little weak at this time, and he was not sure whether he was seen by one of these people when he set the fire.
He carried a burnt table leg to the place where the miscellaneous items were temporarily stacked in the square, when suddenly she was dragged by a pair of hands behind the car.
When he came to his senses, he saw clearly that standing in front of him was Yao Feijie, a researcher in the research room, looking at the chubby girl in front of him, Qi Linlin asked with a puzzled expression: "Do you have anything to do with me?" ”
Yao Feijie looked at Qi Linlin, who was covered with dust, and said, "You put this job, right?" ”
Qi Linlin didn't know the purpose of her sudden words, and he couldn't be sure whether the fat girl standing in front of him was friend or foe, so he shook his head and said, "No, is there anything else?" With that, he turned and walked out.
Yao Feijie grabbed her and said, "I saw it all, you sneakily held a gasoline drum on the second floor in the afternoon, don't worry, I won't give you out, I just have one thing to ask for." ”
Qi Linlin looked at Yao Feijie with puzzled eyes and said, "Since you have seen it, as long as you don't say it, what do you need me to help with?" ”
"Get me out!"
