CHAPTER XVI

The patients, who had been cowering and not daring to be the first to come out, also moved from the critical care corridor to the door.

For the scene in the courtyard in front of them, they all gasped.

"It's over, we can't get out, we all have to die here."

"What should I do, I still have a family, I haven't seen my son yet, I can't die here."

Bursts of desperate murmurs began to sound behind him, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.

Mo Ran shouted.

"Okay, crying dad can't save your mother's life, if you continue to shout like this, you may attract something. What is needed now is to find a way. ”

Everyone remembered the hideous bloody mouths of those monsters yesterday, and they all trembled, and they were so frightened that they immediately stopped talking.

Mo Ran turned his head and said to Chen Rao beside him.

"You take them back and pack up their things, and then sort out all the food and water, and take an inventory to see how long it lasts. It's not safe here, there are probably monsters like yesterday around, and we can't rush out until we find out what the outside world is like, we have to change places first. ”

Chen Rao nodded.

"Well, good. But where do we go? The inpatient unit doesn't seem to be doing much better, but at least there are more empty rooms upstairs than we do. ”

Mo Ran shook his head.

"It's not good upstairs, not to mention that if there is any danger upstairs, it won't be easy for us to run down. Yesterday there was probably more serious than we had heard, maybe only a few of the monsters died by the tree, and some were in the building. When you clean up, lock the hallway leading to the inpatient unit, and find someone to guard this hallway. Report any danger in a timely manner. If there are survivors in the hospital, they will be accepted. ”

Mo Ran quickly searched the locations in the hospital in his mind and muttered to himself.

"It's not good underground, there's no way to see the changes in the outside world in time underground, and if there is really a rescue team to carry out the rescue, we may not be able to find us."

Suddenly, a place popped into her mind.

"Yes, let's go to the medical equipment warehouse, which is half a floor down, half underground and half above ground. There are windows on the top to ventilate and escape, and the surrounding structures are also made of cement and concrete, so it is relatively safe if there is any attack. ”

While Mo Ran and Chen Rao were talking, Lian Yue beside him finally moved, he turned around slowly, and still passed by a few people without saying a word, walking back barefoot.

Mo Ran patted Chen Rao's arm.

"Go ahead and prepare, and tell everyone not to be too loud when cleaning up, and not to act alone. Also, go see Cheng Xiao and the special policeman, oh yes, and that Zheng Shi'an, all move over together. ”

After speaking, she hurriedly ran in the direction where Lian Yue left.

"Wait a minute."

Lian Yue still walked back by himself as if he hadn't heard it, and went directly back to his intensive care unit.

"Did you hear me, wait a minute."

Mo Ran followed Lian Yue into the house, she grabbed the corner of Lian Yue's clothes, and when she reacted, she felt a little reckless, and immediately let go again.

"No, you've been watching it for a long time, and you have what you think. I know your ability to survive must be the best of our people. If there's anything better you can do, tell me. ”

Lian Yue sat back on the edge of the bed, raised his eyes and looked in front of him, after this night of tossing, Mo Ran, whose hair was messy and slightly embarrassed.

"Nope."

Mo Ran gritted his teeth, just about to say something more. Liao Fanqing's voice came from outside the door.

"Xiao Ran, can you come out for a while, I have something to look for you."

Mo Ran sighed and turned his head to look at Lian Yue.

"Don't walk around, I'll come back to you in a while, and I'll find you another pair of shoes."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Seeing Mo Ran walking out of the house, Liao Fanqing pulled her out of the house.

"Xiao Ran, how can you enter this person's room alone, he is now handcuffed and shackled, maybe something will happen."

Mo Ran withdrew his arm.

"What's the matter with you?"

Liao Fanqing withdrew his hand awkwardly and paused.

"Xiao Ran, I thought about it, it was me who was wrong before. Now that this is the case, we should face the problem together. I won't say that again, don't be angry with me, I was worried about your safety before, otherwise I wouldn't have risked trying to come to the hospital to pick you up. In a moment I took out all the food hidden in the car, and with that stuff we had enough to eat for at least a few more days. ”

Hearing him say so sincerely, Mo Ran eased the strangeness he felt before.

"Fan Qing, I know you're worried about me, but we are doctors, we are to heal and save people, no matter what the world becomes, how can you make me watch everyone face death and turn a blind eye."

Liao Fanqing grabbed her hand.

"I know it's wrong Xiao Ran, I'll listen to you from now on. I'm going to help Chen Rao transfer Cheng Xiao and the SWAT over. They are all little girls, how can they move. ”

After speaking, he lightly kissed Mo Ran's forehead, and turned around to leave.

Mo Ran grabbed his arm.

"What's wrong, Xiao Ran? What else? ”

Mo Ran pointed to Lian Yue in the room behind him.

"Do you still have shoes in your office, and he can't always be barefoot."

Liao Fanqing frowned, and seemed to use all his strength to swallow back the words that came to his mouth.

He gritted his teeth and nodded.

"Yes, right in my office cupboard, there's a pair of hiking boots. It was left by the emergency call in the middle of the mountain last time when we were called back by the emergency department, and we never brought it back. ”

"Okay, I know, you go, I'll get it myself later."

Liao Fanqing was still a little worried.

"You be careful, you must be careful, he is more terrible than a monster."

Liao Fanqing left, and Mo Ran went to his office to pick up his shoes. She and Liao Fanqing's office were next to each other, and as soon as she arrived at the door, she saw Zhang Ting standing outside the door of her office, with a sad face that didn't know what to do.

"What's wrong?"

Zhang Ting saw Mo Ran coming over and hurriedly pointed to the house.

"Just that Zheng Shi'an, I told him that we were going to move the place and let him come out and follow me. Look at him, lying under the bed, dead or alive. ”

Mo Ran walked into the house and squatted down beside the bed.

"Zheng Shi'an, you come out to see me, I'm Dr. Mo Ranmo. We're going to move to the side storeroom, which is surrounded by concrete structures and is safer. It's not a good idea for you to stay here. ”

Hearing Mo Ran's voice, Zheng Shi'an poked his head out from under the bed.

"Doctor Mo."

Mo Ran stretched out his hand towards him.

"It's safe for the time being, or we wouldn't be able to walk back and forth here. You come out first, and we'll talk about it after we have anything to say. ”

Zheng Shi'an hesitated, but chose to crawl out from under the bed.

From the bottom of his heart, he still trusts the doctor in front of him.

"Doctor Mo, it's too late, it's too late. I saw, I saw, I dreamed that many people had died. They've all become monsters. ”

Mo Ran lifted him up from the ground.

"Don't be afraid, it's all a dream, it's fine. Now we're going to have to move somewhere else, as you saw yesterday, and there's no stopping those monsters here. We'll all stay together after that, so it's safer. You can go over with Zhang Ting first, I'll go over after arranging this thing. ”

Zheng Shi'an nodded suspiciously.

His head ached, and for a moment he couldn't tell whether the picture he saw was a dream or not.

Watching Zhang Ting leave with Zheng Shi'an, Mo Ran had no time to go to the cabinet in the office and find the pair of hiking boots.

These shoes, as Liao Fanqing said, were bought by the two of them on Valentine's Day when they were going to climb the mountain together to watch the sunrise, but they were recruited back to their posts by the emergency department before dawn in the middle of the night.

It may be that Liao Fanqing forgot about it, and his shoes are still stained with mud marks left when he climbed the mountain.

Carrying his shoes back to the intensive care room, Lian Yue really didn't leave.

He was standing in front of the window, looking out at the messy courtyard with his eyebrows lowered.

Mo Ran put his shoes at his feet.

"Put it on, it's all broken glass now."

With that, she also stood side by side by the window and looked out.

"Yesterday's very large German Shepherd dogs, I think it's a bit like some kind of radiation stimulates the hormones of the pituitary gland, causing them to have such a big change in size in a short period of time, and such a growth rate will definitely be accompanied by an exponential increase in appetite. That's why they attack humans. ”

Lian Yue didn't speak, but Mo Ran analyzed it on his own.

"Now it seems that not only animals are starting to have this anomaly, but so are plants. The big tree in the doorway may have emitted some kind of scent that attracted animals or some other signal that attracted them all. It's like the kind of man-eating flower in the rainforest, first releasing the smell and flower juice that the animals love, and then trapping the animals firmly. Also, these dogs are all of the same breed, and at first glance they don't look like stray dogs of all breeds on the street. There is a military dog breeding base to the south of the hospital, so you may not know where it came from. ”

Mo Ran felt that so far, there was no more reasonable explanation.

"Also, since they can mutate, it means that other animals and plants that have been exposed to radiation have the possibility of such mutation."

After Mo Ran said a lot, he was also stunned. I don't know why I said so much to the person next to me.

She paused abruptly and replied.

"Looks like you agree with that."

Lian Yue tilted his head slightly and glanced at Mo Ran with his spare eyes.

"I didn't speak."

Mo Ran tilted his head and said in disbelief.

"You just mumbled."

She gestured to the shoes on the ground.

"You hurry up and put your shoes on, they should be about the same size. Then come with me, everyone else is already gone. Now that there is no shelter in this place, it will be dangerous if any more unidentified creatures appear. ”

Lian Yue didn't explain that he really didn't speak just now, but he had some guesses about how Mo Ran knew what he was thinking.
