Volume 1: The Eve of Doom Chapter 18 A Late Autumn Night

There are some things that cannot be covered. Wang Mingjun's injury, Bai Yunlian did not mention it to anyone, for fear that it would cause unnecessary suspicion and unnecessary psychological pressure on everyone. But even if she was so protective, the sharp-eyed people still saw the clues from Wang Mingjun's performance.

"Mingjun, you don't seem to be in a good mood?" Qin Tianwu was the first to lift the "pot lid".

"No, it's just a little tired." Wang Mingjun explained in his usual rhetoric without thinking.

Unexpectedly, this opened Zhong Wenfeng's "chatterbox": "Impossible, you have rested for an afternoon, why are you still tired?" Could it be that the water and soil are not adapted, and they are sick? ”

"He's fine." Bai Yunlian saw that the momentum was not right, and she pretended to be smart enough to give everyone a "preventive shot".

But as the saying goes: help help, the more you help, the more you help. As soon as these words entered Zhong Wenfeng's ears, they spit out from his mouth again, and he added: "It's not a big deal?" Could it be that he was injured in yesterday's shootout? Oops, the sanitary conditions here are so poor, will it be ......"

Even if he stopped and didn't continue, he had planted a bad seed in the hearts of everyone. I don't know who even let out a gasp.

"Mingjun, are you injured?" Finally, a strong man expressed the doubts in everyone's hearts.

"Uh...... No, no, no, no. In a panic, Wang Mingjun actually said four "no" in a row, and also matched his head and hand movements, which is simply three hundred taels of silver here.

"Don't hide this, if there's something wrong, I'll send you back and recuperate from your injuries." Zhong Wenfeng's brain turned very fast.

Looking at the three suspicious eyes, Wei Yilin couldn't open his mouth: "Yunlian, have you shown him?" What the hell happened to him? ”

"Uh......"

"What the hell is going on?"

Wang Mingjun's heart is weak, and Bai Yunlian's desire to speak is like two heavyweight weights, pressing on the balance called "doubt" on the half of everyone's hearts.

"Ugh." Bai Yunlian secretly glanced at Wang Mingjun, but the latter simply closed his eyes, as if he had given up struggling, "A small cut was made on his left waist by something, and he was bleeding a little, but it has automatically stopped." I helped him detoxify and bandage him. ”

"Oh, that's it, I said it earlier. It scared everyone. Qin Tianwu showed a relieved expression.

"Cut by something?" The obvious question tone poured out of Zhong Wenfeng's mouth, "Could it be ...... Caught? ”

Hu Luquan said that it took four days for his wife to mutate, but half a month later, an old man took nine hours to complete the mutation. However, it took less than an hour for the members of the vulture group to complete the mutation. In other words, viruses evolve. But since Mingjun was injured, it has been ......"

"It's been almost a day." Bai Yunlian hurriedly picked up Zhong Wenfeng's words, obviously, she was trying to dispel the suspicions in everyone's hearts.

"That is, the possibility of infection has been ruled out!" Qin Tianwu said arbitrarily, and at the same time patted Wang Mingjun's shoulder excitedly, the latter seemed to be touched, opened his eyes, and a glimmer of hope lit up from his eyes.

"It's all the best, but I think we have to be cautious. Look at it for another three days. ”

Qin Tianwu secretly glanced at Zhong Wenfeng, and the light in Wang Mingjun's eyes went out again, as short as an epiphany.

"I'll go sentry." Wei Yilin wrapped himself in a chemical protective suit and walked out, "Everyone is tired, eat something and take a rest." ”

Huanzhou City at night, deep and terrifying, the fishy wind howling, like two powerful hands tearing people's faces, and like a pair of iron fists, smashing on people's chests. Wei Yilin laboriously climbed onto the rooftop, sat cross-legged on the cement roof of the elevator room, held the optical sight in his left hand, held the satellite phone in his right hand, pressed a few buttons, thought about it and deleted the numbers on the screen one by one, and repeated it three or four times, the specified contact time was about to pass, but Wei Yilin still did not press the call button, because he had not yet thought about how to report Wang Mingjun's matter to him.

The safest and most responsible thing to do is to report it truthfully, but then Wang Mingjun may never be able to leave Huanzhou, because this terrible virus has turned every potential infected object into a time bomb that will detonate at no known time.

"I'm so conflicted." Wei Yilin smiled bitterly and shook his head, he could leave Weiwei and those old and young people without any guilt, but he couldn't leave Wang Mingjun, a strong man who had also known each other for a short time.

"Old Wei." A call pulled Wei Yilin back from his contemplation, and when he looked back, it was Qin Tianwu, who was also wrapped in a chemical protective suit that could protect him from the cold, and half of his body had already appeared on the roof of the elevator.

"Sit down." Wei Yilin was not surprised by the sudden appearance of this old robe who had been with him since graduation, in the past, whenever he encountered a dilemma, Qin Tianwu was by his side, helping him sort out his thoughts and make the final decision, and over time the two had a tacit understanding, perhaps it was with this tacit understanding that the two were able to escape from Hongmen and get out of the Golden Triangle.

"Smoke?"

"I've got a cold."

"It's a pity, it's hard concentric." Qin Tianwu said, blocking the wind with his left hand, lighting a lighter with his right hand and lighting a cigarette.

"Picked up?"

"Do you remember the new little Du?" Qin Tianwu took a deep breath and slowly exhaled a smoke ring, but the smoke ring quickly dissipated in the cold wind before it could take shape, "He sent it." ”

Wei Yilin nodded, although he had no impression of this person.

"Wang Mingjun's matter, how to report?" Wei Yilin went straight to the point, the contact time had passed, and if he didn't call again, Mr. Jia might have to start preparing for the memorial service.

"Press it first, give him four days." Qin Tianwu spat out another puff of smoke, and this time, the cloud of smoke completely enveloped his head, "I think he's fine." Doesn't Yun Lian think so too? ”

"Everybody knows about it, but I'm afraid that this virus will have an incubation period of 20 years."

"Hey. Twenty years, twenty years. Qin Tianwu said and took another puff of cigarette, "How many twenty years are there in life?" ”

"Let's keep it a secret, let's keep an eye on him these days. If you're okay in four days, you'll be fine. As he spoke, Wei Yilin pressed the dial button.

During the conversation, Wei Yilin deliberately lowered his tone, even Qin Tianwu, who was sitting next to him, couldn't hear what he said, the conversation was very short, only a few words, and Mr. Jia on the other end of the phone must have breathed a sigh of reliefβ€”his group still had no casualties, and his subordinates were the best.

"Old Wei, have you thought about it? If one day, too, is caught. What to do? ”

Suicide. It's by far the most effective way to deal with this form of the virus, but when that happens, will you really be able to do it yourself? Ants are still greedy for life, let alone people? Even those who jumped off the building were probably full of remorse for their suicide before they landed, right?

"Wait, be one of them."

"No mind, no soul, only the most basic desires?"

"Alive, at least there is hope for healing." After saying that, Wei Yilin suddenly patted Qin Tianwu's arm with his left hand, and pointed at his head with his right hand, "Brother, if I am really bitten, remember, give me here, a shot." ”

Qin Tianwu raised his head slightly, looking at Wei Yilin's expression, which was a little complicated.

"Sometimes, instinct prevents us from making the right choice. That's where brothers come in. ”

"You kid." Qin Tianwu smiled and turned his head, he wanted to say: You want to be like this too. But his throat felt like it was sealed with asphalt, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't squeeze out a single note.

The cold wind is howling more and more, the whole city is trembling, it seems that a new round of cold air is coming again, but this is only more difficult for the survivors in Huanzhou City who lack clothes and medicine.

In the northwest corner of the sky, an orange-red cloud suddenly burst out, and the dazzling light instantly covered the eyes of the two with a layer of white light. Then the "crackling" explosion reached the eardrums of the two men.

"Gas explosion." Qin Tianwu was the first to react, blinked his eyes, stood up, and put his hand on the pergola to look in the direction where the orange red cloud was, "It's been too long since I maintained it." ”

"Their days are getting more and more difficult."
