Chapter 107: The Vanishing Back
In the last days, when people temporarily avoid threats from various monsters or the natural world, they will be eager to enjoy the hard-won tranquility, but in this tranquility, there is always intrigue between people. Perhaps this is also a kind of release, because when people 'tease each other' with each other, they can rightly forget the horror beyond the courtyard walls.
In the annex building of Yuehe No. 1 Middle School, in the office on the fifth floor, three teams gathered here: the Wonderful Group, the Student Group, and us.
Two men in black have disturbed the tranquility of us survivors. One is a man with a red scarf, and the other is a woman who looks like the embodiment of night. First of all, the red scarf used 'breaking the window' as a way to appear, and then he overwhelmingly overthrew the three combat forces of the strange group. Just as he was about to go on a killing spree, the 'black' woman appeared, also through the window...... Please, you two don't forget that this is the fifth floor. Having said that, as soon as this black woman entered the house, she stopped the killer under the red scarf, so I guess only Xiao Qi in this house can fight her.
Luckily we didn't rush straight out. suddenly, but first a brief chat. From the words of the black girl and the red scarf, they came here to find a USB flash drive, and they didn't know what important information was in it, let alone why they stayed in this school.
Later, my old classmate Junjie told them that the USB flash drive was taken by another foreign woman. To my surprise, the foreign woman Junjie mentioned was none other than one of the three acquaintances we met Xiao Qi before, Brea.
But what I didn't expect was that the woman in black in front of me was also Xiao Qi's old acquaintance, and the two of them met each other, which made Xiao Qi start to have a headache. This is a scene that often appears in film and television dramas, and people with amnesia can cause severe headaches as long as their memory is fluctuating.
The synopsis seems to be a bit too much, in short, in the end, the black girl left with Xiao Qi's Tang knife, or through the window, and her meow-like figure went directly to the rooftop. In order to get back the Tang knife, Xiao Qi also endured a headache and chased out.
Without hesitation, I killed the dying red scarf that was beaten by Xiao Qi, and immediately ran out of the door, rushed to the end of the corridor, and climbed up the stairs to the top of the building.
When I stood up again, there was only an empty rooftop as far as I could see.
……
If anyone sees this diary in the future, don't be surprised, even I think what happened today is like a scene from a martial arts novel...... I'm angry with these bugs, I love to jump out of the window if I don't go through the door, or the window on the fifth floor, how can you let me, a civilian audience, keep up with the pace!? In the future, if I have the conditions, I will get a flying machine, and I will fly while eating melon seeds to watch you run, and I will throw all the melon seed skins in your face after swallowing.
Regardless of whether there will be a flying machine in the future, I just said that I was still very nervous at the time. Although Xiao Qi and the black girl seem to be acquaintances, I don't know what the relationship between them is, and what the festival is. Maybe I won't be able to help if I catch up, but I know I can't just wait for him to come back.
The empty rooftop shocked me for a moment, and then I walked to the nearest east edge, and looked out, but except for the various buildings outside, illegal buildings, and the bustling zombies not far away, I couldn't see anyone at all.
The two of them just disappeared?
I hurriedly ran to the side again, and kept looking along the eaves, but I still couldn't find any trace of Xiao Qi.
There weren't any tall enough buildings around here for people to jump over, and there weren't any rappelling ropes or anything like that on the eaves, so where else could they run.
I have checked the three edges of the southeast, north and south, and found nothing, except the only west side, which is the direction I am running in at this time.
The interior of the main building and the annex building of the school are connected, but the roof is different, and the annex building is higher, so there is a fault in the middle of the roof, about 2 meters difference.
When I ran here, I didn't have time to stop, I jumped out, quickly crossed an arc in the air, and landed firmly on the roof of the main building, rolled on the spot, and then stood up and ran again.
It's not the first time I've 'jumped off a building', and it's no longer difficult for me.
When I came to the west edge of the rooftop, I reached out and grabbed a cement pier next to it to stop my body in time to avoid flying out and playing free fall.
The setting sun hit me in the face and made me a little dizzy. After blocking the sunlight with my hand, I looked out again, and there was still no trace of Xiao Qi in the picture in front of me, but it made me feel helpless and sad again.
The dark clouds and smoke in the distance became the connecting line between heaven and earth, and the rising flames seemed to tell people that this was the real 'fire cloud', and the vague flow of people and the faint rumors once again warned me of the fact that this is the last days, the most despicable era of human life.
At this moment, I didn't have much time to enjoy the picture of the world, and after a short moment of stunnedness, a thought popped into my head, and then I turned around and ran back.
The black girl and the red scarf must have fallen from the roof when they entered the house before, so it is possible that she had climbed down through another window after coming up just now...... Although it feels like taking off your pants and farting, it takes two more procedures.
With that woman's ability, it is not difficult to walk out of the gate, so why do you have to leave so trouble......
Who knows, I don't care, but now the only possibility I can think of is this. I don't believe that Hei Nu and Xiao Qi can disappear from the rooftop for no reason, without leaving a trace...... This is not filming the emotional scene between Batman and Catwoman.
I thought they could only go up to the roof and then go down through another window, and I couldn't do it this way, so I ran back to the entrance to the roof again.
Jumping back to the fifth-story corridor from the wall ladder, I shouted almost as soon as I landed, "Di Yan!" ”
The shouts were still echoing in the corridor, and Di Yan retreated from the back door of the room where the team was, and shouted inside: "Don't move!" This is the captain's order! Dalin, help me stop them! ”
After saying that, Di Yan still blocked the door with both hands, and then hurriedly turned his head to look at me.
I continued to shout: "Look out of your windows, don't move whatever you see, and tell me as soon as I go down!" ”
I didn't even have time to wait for his reply, so I ran straight down the stairs.
If Xiao Qi and the others really fell down from another window, then they must have gone downstairs a long time ago, and I couldn't catch up at all if I ran down, so I had to let Di Yan and them look through the window, if those two people really went downstairs like this, then no matter how fast they were, they could be found.
Striding down a few steps, I jumped straight down.
The corridors of this kind of school are much higher than those of ordinary residential buildings, but perhaps because they are annexes, the corners of the stairs here are narrower.
When I landed, there wasn't enough room under my feet for me to roll or run, so I had to hit the wall hard to stop myself. This time it was really not light, but fortunately I put my hand on my head in time, otherwise I would have been dizzy for a while even if I hadn't been knocked unconscious.
Turn the corner and go down a few steps to the iron gate, which is now wide open and the chain lock hanging aside. I don't know if Xiao Qi and the others went down from this side or from the main building, I didn't think too much about it, so I ran straight down.
After exiting the iron gate, I didn't run to the main building, but continued down the stairs here. Even if you go down here, I don't know if you can catch up, and if you run to the main building again, you may really not even see the dust left by the two of them.
When I went downstairs again, I impulsively changed the way I ran. Run down a few steps, then hold on to the railing with both hands, and jump straight to the next staircase. It's a technique I often see in movies, like the so-called 'parkour' founder used to do it. In addition, there were a lot of naughty bags who loved to do this when they were students in the past.
But this was the first time I had played with this technique, and luckily I didn't break my foot when I landed, so I continued to run down. Again, a few knots, hold on to the railing again, and jump over. After a few times, I also feel a little proficient, but the movements should not be as good-looking as others.
But for me at this point, speed is enough, and I repeat the action quickly-
Down, brace, jump, down, brace, jump, down, brace...... This is not a fist setback, this is really a downstairs.
The journey was safe, and it was indeed a lot faster to go downstairs like this. But when I reached the second floor, I found that the corner of the stairs in front of me was blocked by a large number of tables, chairs and benches.
What's going on, is this what Sun Aiqi and they did? But they all blocked the doors of each building, how could they block this.
My mind only locked on for a moment, but my body continued to move, and I had roughly mastered the skill of 'under-vaulting', which allowed me to easily avoid the clutter on the stairs and go straight to the one-and-a-half-story position.
When I got to the ground floor, I found that the hallway was just a big fart. The staircase faces the door leading to the outside, and a faint afterglow shines in from the outside, reflected on the brick floor. There are also three small doors next to it, I don't know what they are for.
I quickly rushed out the door...... It is said that it is a gate, but it is actually more than ten centimeters wider than the door of an ordinary classroom.
After coming out, I looked around for a moment, and then immediately looked up, just in time to see a human head poking out of the window on the fifth floor, it was Lin Yue.
I waved at her and motioned to tell me the situation.
No matter how nervous I was, I didn't dare to shout outside when I stood outside, although this school seemed to be safe, I could guarantee that as long as I screamed, a large number of zombies would rush here.
When I was on the rooftop, I glanced at the scene outside the school to the south. Counting from the small gate at the corner of the playground in the southernmost part of the school, about a few hundred meters away, there was a dense pile of zombies. Originally, I was worried that they had all come back with Shi Yao and them before, but after observing them for a while, I found that they were not going here, but were just wandering in the distance, so they didn't pose a threat for a while, but I had to be more careful.
Lin Yue also understood this, and she also waved her hand at me on it, and she waved it with both hands at the same time, indicating that she didn't see anything.
When I saw this, I hurried south, around the corner of the annex, and I glanced at the playground again, and then looked up, and it was a light rain peeking out of the window on the fifth floor, and she waved at me that I didn't see it.
Without pause, I continued to run west.
The westernmost side had to go around to the main building, but the people upstairs couldn't have made it so fast, and luckily they could see it from the toilet window of the annex, as long as they had good enough eyes.
And when I ran almost and looked back, I found that it was Su Qi with the best eyes lying on the window, but the answer she gave me was 'no'.
Then head south, and in the last direction.
This is Di Yan watching upstairs, and it's still a 'no'.
I ran around the teaching building, but I still found nothing, and after seeing Di Yan's gestures clearly, I couldn't help but burst into a nameless fire.
Where else can Xiao Qi and the black girl go, there is no roof, there is no downstairs, it is impossible for the speed of those two people not to come out of the building for so long, even if they fight in the corridor, they can always hear some movement from the outside, or find a clue, but now......
I kicked a rock off the ground as I stopped running, trying to vent the dark fire, but to no avail. In fact, it's useless to have fire now.,Maybe I shouldn't have cared about them from the beginning.,Anyway, that kind of bug.,No matter how much you toss, you can't die.。
I walked around the small open space in front of the building several times like a headless fly, and after thinking about it while observing my surroundings, I finally decided to go back first.
For Xiao Qi, maybe it won't be my turn to worry about him in another ten years. It's no longer a rhetoric, it's a fact, a bug-level fact.
For me, the current state of the team is even more of a headache. Sun Aiqi now makes me feel like some deep and sophisticated boss, this feeling is basically made by Di Yan, and I have been speculating about what kind of communication this former Sun Dasheng will have with my teammates if I am not present; In addition, the strange group, before the black girl and the red scarf appeared, the cos woman 'Poison Island' had an argument with me, and I stabbed the red scarf without saying hello just now......
I began to walk back, with the last vestiges of fantasy of seeing the familiar figure again, and looking around at nothing.
In the past, I occasionally imagined that Xiao Qi should not be like 'little brother', disappearing at every turn. But now, I hope he can be like 'little brother', at least he will come back after he disappears." As long as you don't just play a 'ten-year covenant' for me.
Now I can only hope that Xiao Qi can come back soon, other than that, I ......
Quack!
Suddenly, there was a crooked foot, and I heard a crisp sound from my ankles...... I'm stumbling.
This time it was really not light, and the garlic under my feet almost made me almost fall to the ground. Even though I was holding up, the pain in my ankle made me sit on the ground.
The strange sensation of crispiness, numbness and pain rose from my legs directly into my brain, which made me uncomfortable. I rubbed my ankles vigorously as I looked up at the thing that had broken my foot.
It was a rock, like the one I had just kicked away......
It was ignorant karmic fire again, and it rose from my stomach again, but the uncomfortable strength of my ankles made me frown. I'm really convinced, just now I went up to the rooftop, down the stairs, jumped the steps, ran to the playground, and there was nothing to do, but this time I just walked the flat road in a down-to-earth manner, and I even broke my foot...... I'm angry.
After a sigh, I got up from the ground with a sore foot, gritted my teeth twice, and limped towards the small door of the annex.
While walking, looking back, enduring the pain in my feet, I kept asking myself-
What should I do if Xiao Qi just leaves.
What should I do if Xiao Qi never comes back.
Is there a problem with him, although he is ridiculously strong, but he still runs out with a headache, in case he encounters a little ......
Now the relationship between us and the other survivors is still very delicate, and it is not impossible to 'misfire', if Xiao Qi does not come back in a short time, then will we ......
For so long, Xiao Qi has almost always stood by my side. In the past, I was able to make those amazing decisions in time, and I have to admit that it was because of Xiao Qi's back, he always gave me enough confidence, even if he just stood there silently, or slept with his head bored.
So far, can I protect this team on my own?
It may not be until now that I can understand how other people felt when I left the factory.
……
Before I knew it, I was back at the small entrance of the annex, and I took one last look outside, and then stepped inside.
The faint light of the setting sun outside the door only reflected the darkness in the corridor, and the pictures drawn by the boys and girls were faintly discernible from the paper and scraps scattered on the ground.
Perhaps only when I am alone can I concentrate on observing these 'relics' of my past life, and I can greedily taste some memories of the past. But often after recalling, what I see is an even more terrifying today-
Zombies outside,
Humans upstairs,
Leaving Little Seven.
………………
There's a desk near the door, I don't know how I got here, and I didn't care when I went downstairs just now. I looked at the piggy and poop drawn with pencil on the table, and I couldn't help but smile.
In the past, I would not hesitate to kick this kind of thing in the way. But at this point, I didn't move the table, but chose to walk past it, while my eyes were still on the picture on the table.
As I walked around the table, I moved closer to the three doors on the wall next to me, and I suddenly heard movement inside.
Just a momentary sound made my attention focus on these door panels.
