The sky gradually darkened, and the temperature dropped quickly in the late autumn evening, Da Zhuang held a stack of branches picked up around the hotel and piled them in the center of the hall, while Guo Lin built a simple stand on the pile of small branches piled up by Da Zhuang, simply washed his helmet with water in the kettle, lit a fire, and poured all the individual dry food in the backpack into it.

Zhang Weimin, standing by the door of the hotel lobby, checked whether the door was sealed and blocked, thinking that it looked like he was going to spend the night here tonight.

After checking the last door, there were stacked tables and chairs that had just been blocked with Da Zhuang, Zhang Weimin leaned against the wall, lit a cigarette, and looked out the window blankly, the Helleton Hotel was one of the top hotels in N City before the zombie outbreak, and it was also a very famous business district around, looking at the dilapidated scene under the sun in front of him, Zhang Weimin could hardly imagine that there was a crowd of people and traffic here 3 months ago.

Guo Lin added some water to the simmering in the helmet, then got up and said to Da Zhuang, who was adding branches to the fire, don't boil it dry, and walked straight to Zhang Weimin.

"Team Zhang, can you give me a cigarette?" Guo Lin was a little embarrassed.

Zhang Weimin turned around, took out a cigarette from his pocket, handed it over, lit it for Guo Lin and said, "I'm sorry about your brother's business. ”

Guo Lin took a puff of cigarette and looked at Zhang Weimin and said, "This may be a relief for him." ”

Zhang Weimin looked at Guo Lin with a little doubt.

Guo Lin didn't care about Zhang Weimin's doubts, and continued: "We grew up in the countryside since we were children, our parents are facing the loess with their backs to the sky, in addition to our two brothers and two sisters, the family is poor, there is no money for us to study, we began to help the family do farm work at the age of 28, the busy farming season, the evening after harvesting crops every day is the happiest time for our two brothers, we take small branches tied up as guns, and a group of friends in the village about the same age in the field, pond "war". Speaking of this, Guo Lin paused, looked at the evening sky outside the glass door of the hall, and continued: "At that time, the sky was much better than this, there was a layer of fiery red clouds floating on the blue and purple, Guo Sen's wish since childhood was to be a special soldier, every time he "fought" with the children, he was particularly strong, and then when the age came, the two of us went to conscription, and as a result, he became a civilian soldier of the special forces as he wished, my younger brother has very good grades in the army, and he wants to be the first in everything, he is a good soldier! Guo Lin choked up.

Zhang Weimin looked at the sky that had begun to gradually darken and said: "You are right, Guo Sen is a good soldier, don't be sad, I don't think he wants to see you like this, cheer up, the sun will still rise tomorrow!" ”

Guo Lin nodded vigorously.

"Brother Zhang, what are you two muttering there? Let's grab a bite or two! Da Zhuang behind him took the last of his food and shouted at them.

Zhang Weimin and Guo Lin turned around and walked over, and the three of them sat down around this small pile of firewood.

Da Zhuang hurriedly said: "It tastes good, hurry up and eat some, I'm tired all day!" As he spoke, he handed the two men food.

Guo Lin took it, looked at the steaming bowl of food and said, "Team Zhang, Team Li, are they on the way over?" ”

Zhang Weimin took a bite of the instant noodles in the bowl and said, "I always have an ominous premonition. ”

"What do you mean, Brother Zhang." Da Zhuang said as he chewed on the food in his mouth.

"You said that Team Li wasn't guarding the rest of the crowd on the roof of the building, why did they suddenly rush towards us?" Zhang Weimin expressed the doubts in his heart.

"Maybe they've found a bus or something?" Da Zhuang said.

"It's unlikely, if they did find a bigger vehicle to evacuate the crowd, why didn't they just drive out of town?" Guo Lin said.

"Well, that's what I mean." Zhang Weimin looked at Guo Lin and nodded.

"So there's a good chance they've had an accident too?" Da Zhuang still seemed a little confused, and continued: "If there is really an accident, it means that the first mission of Group K has completely failed, and the rescue of more than 130 people has all failed. ”

"It's hard to say everything now, let's wait for Team Li and them to arrive." Zhang Weimin didn't want to discuss it below, because the answer was basically clear to him.

The sky had all darkened, and there was silence all around, only the crackling sound of the fire burning the branches, and by the faint light of the fire, Zhang Weimin looked at his watch, 18:57.

Da Zhuang whistled and turned on the flashlight on his helmet, and walked to the room behind the registration desk in the hall, he wanted to find out if there was any bedding left by the watchman, so that he could take it and spread it out for the night.

He came to the room, the dark room, very messy, Da Zhuang turned on the lights on some helmets, he saw a few lockers at the top, he stepped forward, saw a few doors open, he looked in by the light of the flashlight, he found a few packets of unopened snacks, some ladies' front desk uniforms, and then he turned to the other side, and saw that there was a bunk bed, and there were really a few bedding on the bed, he quickly rolled up and carried it to the fire.

"Brother Zhang, Guo Lin, see what I found?" The futon in his hand was excited.

Guo Lin hurriedly covered his eyes with his hands and said, "Da Zhuang, can't you turn off the helmet lamp?" ”

Da Zhuang hurriedly turned off the helmet lamp, smiled embarrassedly, let the futon spread on the edge of the fire and said, "Our brothers can sleep more comfortably tonight." ”

Guo Lin looked at Da Zhuang, who was lying down with a satisfied face, and said: "If you want to be more comfortable, you can go upstairs and find a room at random, there must be a softer bed than this, and the overnight stay tonight is free." ”

Da Zhuang jumped up from the futon and said, "Yes, Da Linzi, why didn't I think of it." With that, he got up and went upstairs.

Zhang Weimin shouted at Da Zhuang and said: "I can't hear the words yet, when is this still the heart to make trouble here?" ”

Da Zhuang had no choice but to go back to the fire and sit down.

At this time, Li Sheng's voice came from the earphones: "Team Zhang, we are already close to the hotel, how is the surrounding situation?" ”

The three people stood up and ran to the door of the hotel and turned on the helmet lamp to the outside of the hotel, three light sources spread outward, and suddenly countless pairs of blood-red eyes opened in the darkness, and then the roar sounded, and a group of zombies rushed towards the hotel door.

Zhang Weimin knew that it was not good, the zombies were alarmed by these three light sources, and hurriedly shouted into the earphones: "There is a group of zombies outside the hotel, we are under attack, please pay attention!" ”

Li Sheng said: "Pay attention to safety, we will be there soon, and hung up the headphones." ”

Zhang Weimin ordered to quickly turn off the headlights, and in an instant the front darkened, but the blood-red eyes had already rushed out of the gate, and they began to frantically slap and push the glass door.

Da Zhuang cursed "", then took out his gun and prepared to shoot.

Zhang Weiming hurriedly stopped: "Let's not shoot, the number outside is still uncertain, the bullets on our bodies are limited now, and they can't be hard steel." ”

"Then what should I do, Brother Zhang?" Da Zhuang asked.

"Hide behind the sign-in desk first, and extinguish the fire by the way!" Zhang Weimin ran backwards as he spoke, and when he came to the fire, he poured the water in the helmet that was used as a pot on the fire, the fire was extinguished instantly, and the hall was completely dark.

The three of them quieted down, and listened to the clanging sound of the door being hit by the zombies, and the zombies roared in pairs outside, and suddenly a glass door could not be supported, and the glass shattered to the ground with a "bang", and the zombies rushed in at once, and they were in the hall like a headless barren, and from time to time they hit the wall, and there were strange sounds from the side of the sofa, tables and chairs.

Zhang Weimin heard these movements, and whispered to Da Zhuang and Guo Lin beside him: "Listen to the sound, these zombies are likely to have poor night vision, as long as there is no light source, they can't see it, let's not act rashly, hide here for a while, and wait for Team Li and them to come over." ”

After a moment of noise in the hall, the zombies quieted down, and instead of messing around, they stood silently and motionless, letting out a low roar.

The three of them cautiously poked their heads out from behind the sign-in desk, and through the faint moonlight outside the hall, they saw zombies standing in the hall.

Suddenly, I remembered the roar of the car engine in the distance, and with the two lights shining on the hall getting closer and closer, the zombies were attracted by the sound and light, and ran out of the hall in a swarm.

Zhang Weimin thought badly, and hurriedly shouted into the walkie-talkie: "Team Li, have you arrived?"

"Yes, we're here."

"Quickly turn off the lights, turn off the engine, there are a large number of zombies rushing towards your car, these zombies can't see anything in the dark." Zhang Weimin shouted loudly.

"Okay, understood." With that, Li Sheng turned off the engine and turned off the lights.

Because the zombies only smashed one door, the lights suddenly went out at this time, and they didn't know how to rush out all of a sudden, Li Sheng, Jiang Xuefeng, Wei Hao, and Chen Wanru each walked down from the vehicle with weapons, and a few zombies who rushed out of the hall heard the sound of closing the car door and rushed towards them, a pair of blood-red eyes in the darkness were approaching step by step, bang, bang, bang, the gunfire remembered, and the zombies around them rushed to the place where the gun was fired.

Seeing this, Zhang Weimin hurriedly turned out from behind the sign-in desk with Da Zhuang and Guo Lin and participated in the battle.

In an instant, gunshots, glass shattering, and zombie roars rang out, and several people pulled the plate machine and shot angrily at the zombies around them.

Soon, the corpses of the zombies fell into a piece, the air was filled with a foul smell, the gunfire stopped, the surroundings were quiet, and the zombies in front of the hotel were eliminated.

Zhang Weimin took Da Zhuang and Guo Lin to run quickly to Li Sheng's side, Jiang Xuefeng saw Zhang Weimin and immediately rushed up to hug the man who was more than ten centimeters shorter than himself and said: "Brother Zhang, it's okay if you're okay, it's too miserable, it's too painful here!" ”

Zhang Weimin patted Jiang Xuefeng on the back, pushed him away and said to Li Sheng, "Team Li, are you okay?" ”

Li Sheng looked at Zhang Weimin and said, "Is there a safe place nearby?" Let's find a safe place first. ”

Chen Wanru stood up and said: "There is a gas station near the Heleton Hotel, the car needs to be refueled, and the duty room of the workstation at the gas station is a good hidden place!" ”

"Well, okay, let's go to the gas station first!" Li Sheng nodded, and handed the car key to Zhang Weimin: "You come to drive!" ”

"How can this car be sat by 8 people?" Da Zhuang glanced around, and then asked, "Huh?" How come there are only 7 people? Ay...... What about Dong Gang? ”
