Chapter XXXIII: A New Situation

The host on the TV was still chattering:

"Safeguarding the safety of Everbright citizens is our eternal pursuit, hence the ......"

"Smack!" With a bang, the power went out suddenly, the whole house was darkened, and the TV was still glowing faintly because of the fluorescence, lighting up the faces of Chi Yu's family. Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and they all saw that their faces had turned green, Chi Yu asked, "Mom, are there any candles at home?" ”

"When has there ever been a candle or soap in the house, do you want it?"

Chi Yu opened her mouth and didn't speak, she really couldn't understand what the inevitable connection between candles and soap was, because they were both oily?

Oily! Her eyes suddenly lit up, she stood up and said loudly: "Mom, is there any pork that our family bought last time?" We can light the lard to illuminate ......"

The fluorescence of the TV finally dimmed, but after Chi Yu's eyes adapted to the darkness, somehow, he still saw cyan on his parents' faces.

Before long, Chi Yu, who protested to no avail, watched her mobile phone being tied up and hanging on the ceiling overhead, with the flashlight function on, and a fixed pulley made on it, and the wire on the other side hung down and pulled for her, one of which was still her headphone cable.

Mom rubbed her hands, turned her head to discuss with Dad, and read that the physics textbook in junior high school was good. I can't go out at home, so I can only turn the books on the cabinet at home and read them upside down, and I found that the best thing is a comic book for elementary school students, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, which is Guan Public Relations Yun Chang......

Chi's father also said that when there was still paper, he could pass the time by painting one by one, and then he also painted the front and the back of a piece of paper, and then he painted ink, and later had to follow Western oil painting.

The old couple sat on the sofa and sighed, they usually don't sigh so long, and now this day is not good, everyone who is usually light and breezy is better. After sitting for a while, Chi's mother said, "Did you hear the loudspeaker they tuned?" ”

"It's definitely going to be broadcast again, don't panic, it's going to be powered right away."

"Just let them fool," Chi's father said, "Anyway, this day is a day, and if I don't want to live one day, I'll go to the city and run naked." ”

Chi Yu couldn't hold it anymore, she was kidnapped and splashed by hot pot, she lost her energy, and fell asleep on the sofa. Eighty-nine percent of the electricity in her phone is still left, which is the only electrical appliance and the only power left in their house since then. The security zone is pitch black, but the city has always been deserted and howls wolves, but you can still see the light, it is said that because of the power outage, the law enforcement team sent out to maintain the law and order of the "zombie area".

Chi Yu woke up in the middle of the night, and when he stood on the balcony and looked at the stars in the distance, he suddenly remembered Zhang Xizhong. Somehow, there was always a feeling in her mind that he must be here.

Zhang Xizhong was not in the city at that time, but Chi Yu's feeling could not be said to be wrong. He was in the tunnel "wormhole" that he drove Chi Yu through, and the wind was whistling underground. But unlike the tunnels for the citizens to walk, in fact, they did not only move the road underground, but also moved the factory circuits and some important functional facilities to a more secure place, and at this moment, he was looking there with a heavy expression in his car, surrounded by the army and the commissioner. The collective combat power of the entire city has been concentrated here for a small half of this night, and if the people know about it, they don't know what chaos will happen.

Unlike the previous report, the factory inside is very quiet, and there is hardly any unusual sound. For safety, the power supply in the safety zone was stopped, but the power plant was actually still running, and there were still many people who were locked up in the factory area, some of them knew and some did not know.

Zhang Xizhong sighed when he got out of the car and heard a female worker sobbing in a low voice at the door, he remembered Chi Yu. Of course, Chi Yu usually doesn't cry, but ...... Zhang Xizhong made a decision for the leaders before the order was issued, and after the routine examination, the innocent people were released and could be taken to the hospital for observation, and there was no need to be locked up here to expand the infection. The factory also has 1,200 people working at night, and if there are problems in all of them, the entire underground system will be paralyzed.

"Just do it, don't hesitate," he said.

Zhang Xizhong really wanted to tell those who were cowering that he would be responsible for what happened, but he smiled bitterly when he thought about it, what is the need to be responsible or irresponsible these days? "Accountability" is just an afterthought, and people in the last days really don't care, so in fact, Zhang Xizhong said: "Go ahead, I'll solve something wrong." ”

The iron door slowly opened, and the familiar smell of corruption greeted you. In just one night, when those people entered the post, the physical reporting indicators were still good. The zombie infection in the key functional areas of the running city is a very terrifying thing, which will continue to create panic in the hearts of the people, and it is precisely because of this that the "gray building" will intervene in this matter and take over the mess from the government. The exoskeleton on Zhang Xizhong's body was running rapidly, arming him from head to toe, and a "woman" who staggered and waved her arms - let's call it that, rushed straight out, shouting "Help me, help me, I wasn't bitten!" I'm human! ”

The red light of the intelligent system lit up, which was obviously a warm color, but in Zhang Xizhong's opinion, it was extremely cold.

The "female" had her neck twisted and was still making a "cluck, cluck" sound in her throat. His partner was worried, saying that it would be bad to kill in front of these people, and if it was filmed and spread out...... It's always the person in charge who can't eat and walks around. Zhang Xizhong didn't care, he knew that his so-called "responsibility" was responsible for whom. This feeling is not so much pain as relief, and evil deeds are like old friends who have known him for many years.

Fortunately, the clean-up staff only cleaned up for two hours, and half of the employees were not infected, or showed no signs of infection, and were comforted and taken away by the rescue team. Those who can follow the command and come to the outer courtyard of the factory are at least conscious, and even if they are infected, they are mild. And then there'...... Still inside, like a bunch of bacteria or parasites clustered and thriving in some dark corner, that group of zombies completely. It is expected that there are almost thirty of them, in the power plant.

In four hours, people in the safe zone will wake up, and their lives cannot be separated from electricity. It's not just about dressing, housing, and transportation, it's about having the confidence to live.

Song Jinlu picked up a Gatling, and the people of the action team slowly gathered towards them, and his voice became muffled through the exoskeleton. "Boss, that's a good thing, at least the board won't let you explain the kidnapping anymore."

Zhang Xizhong snorted and replied, "Yes, they should have a meeting to study when to shoot me." ”

"Boss, you too, how can any unlucky thing happen to you, you have nothing to do with it to go to the temple to worship, and drink the yellow talisman ashes with water......"

Unable to see the expression, Song Jinlu also knew that Zhang Xi gave him a white look, and then he walked in and began to search in the depths of the factory, saying as he walked: "Burn yellow talisman? If I burn and drink it, within three days the whole city will have to eat all the yellow paper. also reprinted the article on the WeChat public account, 'The antidote that the top government officials are eating! You don't know the results of scientific research'. ”

There was a burst of laughter in the public channel, and the boss didn't know what was wrong, he was obviously cold-faced and cold-hearted, but the words he said were really funny, and for a while, the team was filled with a joyful atmosphere, and the psychological pressure was less.

At three o'clock in the morning, the two of them tried their best to open an iron gate that seemed to be in disrepair, and when they turned on the light and looked inside, it was a wall. There was a half-foot-wide aisle in the middle, dark and swarthy, but nothing but mice. The constant gunfire is really deafening underground, the first way to deal with the zombies should be to dodge and drive away, try to delay as much time as possible until they enter the second phase of the state and become stupid walking corpses, the zombies in the power plant are still very fresh, if it were not for the maintenance of community stability, they would never take such a big risk to fight such a fierce monster......

Zhang Xizhong only felt a burst of tinnitus, and when someone next to him fell, he subconsciously reached out to help, but brought himself to the ground. It was all red in front of me, and I couldn't tell if it was a warning red light or blood on my eyes. Noisy, the public frequency is too noisy, if it's an attack, there's no need to open the channel to fight monsters, unless he doesn't want to do it tomorrow.

Unless, they wanted to report something, but before they could say it, they were ......

His thoughts were interrupted, and someone crawled to find him and pulled him up from the ground. "Boss, there are two people's exoskeleton monitoring, and it shows that they have lost their vital features."

Zhang Xizhong did not speak.

In the middle of the sound, he lifted the closed helmet, looked at the identity tag that Song Jinlu was holding and took down from the cleaned zombie, and activated the area search again, and there was no red alert. There are 30 nameplates visually, and their data matches.

"The identity information has been confirmed, it is the alpha of the action group and the big hair of the communication technology department, the two of them have not been assigned the task of attacking the fortification, they are going to protect the important computer room."

"How many hours until dawn?" In a low, hoarse voice, it sounded that the man was unusually tired.

Before Song Jinlu could answer, he had already stood up and issued a second order: "All the people from last night and today, go back and rest." ”

"No, don't you check?"

"Is it important to investigate the case, or is it important to supply electricity?"

After that, Zhang Xizhong turned around and left, but the blood stains and disgusting mucus on his exoskeleton were not cleaned up or lifted, so he wore them on his body and got into the car. Song Jinlu wanted to take a look, but he was still busy handing over the things in his hand, commanding the people of the engineer regiment to take over here, and signing the paperwork to go through the formalities, the more anxious he was, the more things he had, and he could barely hold the pen.

At the same time, Chi Yu's organization, "Evergreen", suddenly received a bounty task from the outside, with an amount of seven million, and before the end of the world, he could almost buy a brand new Rolls-Royce Phantom.

The mission has only two pictures, Level R, and is an easy level investigative mission.
