Chapter 44: Playing hide and seek in the corpses

The drone quickly lifted off into the air, and in less than 5 minutes, it quickly scanned the ground in a nearby radius of 1 square kilometer.

"Except for zombies, no traces of human activity were found." Lin Fuzi reported.

"Qin Huanchang is mostly hidden in the building, of course, it is not ruled out that she may be buried in the mouth of a zombie." Lin Zaishan analyzed Zhiyang Yang.

"To find her whereabouts, I'm afraid we'll have to search from house to house."

"I still have a way, not that we blindly search for Qin Huanchang, but try to make her discover and find us."

"Huh? Captain, you're not going to be trying to make a cannon fight or something, are you? That will attract all the zombies within a radius of several square kilometers, and maybe a few bad wolves or something. ”

"That's exactly what I thought, if there was an artillery battle around, I might have ordered it a long time ago."

"Captain, this is too risky. Let's go and rescue Sheriff Sun first, at least his whereabouts are fixed. ”

"Okay, let's go! Zhiyangyang, your equipment needs to be updated, and there are still surplus weapons on car No. 1. Lin Fuzi, start the night automatic driving mode of cars 2 and 3, and follow car 1 closely! ”

"Understood!"

The convoy arrived at Feng Rui Yayuan in a few minutes. Lin Zaishan told Zhiyang to stay on guard in the car, and jumped out of the car to blend into the darkness.

In the open space about fifty meters from the gate, more than a dozen zombies stood densely. Lin Zaishan rushed into the group of corpses without hesitation, killing them all in less than ten seconds. With a strong sense of energy, he quickly found the last place where Sheriff Sun fled in the video, which was a 6-story residential building.

Lin Zaishan walked quickly to the entrance of this residential building, and heard the unique roar of zombies coming from the stairwell on the upper floor, and there were many of them. He made a few light jumps to the corner of the fifth floor of stairs, and noticed that there were about 30 or so zombies crowded in the stairwell in front of the sixth floor. These zombies are either banging their heads against the wall or banging on the door with their hands; Those on the outer layer raise their arms high and can't stop roaring. The restless state of the corpses only suggests one thing: there is someone behind the door.

"If it had been me inside, I would have jumped out of the window and escaped. Is the man in the door hurt? Don't worry about it for now, let's clean up these zombies. ”

As soon as Lin Zaishan thought of this, he immediately made a move, and the outermost two second-level zombies were shattered by him. After the corpses noticed it, they immediately rushed forward and hugged to pursue Lin Zaishan.

The corridors here are very narrow, which is not conducive to fast movements. Lin Zaishan was about to jump down, but found that the bottom few zombies had fallen due to the mutual pushing of the corpses, which triggered a chain reaction, and dozens of zombies fell into the stairwell in a few seconds like a snowball. There was a fragile first-level zombie whose head slammed into the wall and shattered, and another second-level zombie was trampled on by numerous zombies and broke his legs......

Lin Zaishan, who had already jumped high to avoid the corpses, was pulling the upper handrail and hanging in the air, looking at (actually probing with his sense of qi) this group of zombies who were "messing around" like naughty schoolchildren, and couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded. It took him a long moment to react, and he immediately jumped down and hit him hard. A minute later, all the zombies in the hallway were killed.

Lin Zaishan breathed a sigh of relief, swaggered to the sixth floor, and went straight to knock on the door that the corpses were guarding just now.

"Is there anyone in there? I'm here to save you. Lin Zaishan, who had already detected that there was a living person in the room, asked loudly in the gentlest and friendly tone in order to dispel the other party's doubts and fears.

Squeak, the thick stainless steel security door was opened, and a beam of light from a flashlight shot out, staying on Lin Zaishan's body.

"Who are you? How did you find here? A middle-aged man's majestic voice asked.

"You're Sheriff Sun, aren't you? I'm Lin Zaishan, the captain of the rescue team, and I deduced your hiding place from a recorder. ”

"Recorder? Did you see Wei Qiang and Xu Yongjun? How are they? ”

"Don't get excited. They all died heroically in order to cover Qin Huanchang. ”

"Hey!" Sergeant Sun couldn't help but lament: "It's all my command error!" If I had calmed down a little more and led them into a house and confronted the corpses with a sturdy security door, maybe they wouldn't have sacrificed ......."

"Sergeant Sun, you don't have to blame yourself. According to my analysis of the recorder video, if the five of them followed you or dispersed to the house to take refuge, at least three police officers would have been surrounded by corpses on the spot. There was no fault of your command at that time. They were forced to break down and be besieged again by the hordes of corpses because they had alarmed high-level zombies while the car was driving and hit a street lamp pole. ”

Sergeant Sun deserves to be a leader in the police world, he quickly adjusted his mentality and returned to reason, used a flashlight to shoot the dead zombies in the corridor, and asked, "How many of you are here?" Did you kill all these zombies? ”

"There are four of us, and the other three are waiting outside the gate of Feng Rui Villa."

"You mean you killed all these zombies alone?" Sergeant Sun asked incredulously.

"Basically, I just scared them, and they pushed and shoved them to the ground, and I took the opportunity to pick up the leak and kill them. Ah, yes, I didn't hit the one against the wall, it was its own head hitting the wall. ”

"You...... Do you have an ability? "Sheriff Sun has begun to wonder if he is hallucinating.

"Sort of, my hand speed is a little faster than the average person." Lin Zaishan answered the question without looking back, knocking down a second-level zombie who had deceived him by "scamming death" just now and was now struggling to get up.

Looking at this quiet young man under the light of the flashlight, Sergeant Sun Zhenghong, who had always been known for his majesty in front of ordinary people and subordinates, suddenly found that he had a feeling of worshipping the other party.

"Captain Lin, have you met Qin Huanchang?"

Judging from the video of the recorder, Qin Huanchang successfully escaped from the corpses yesterday evening. However, we have just used the drone to find traces of her activities in the vicinity, so it is speculated that she is more likely to be hidden in the building. ”

"Captain Lin, let's hurry up and save Qin Huanchang."

"Good!"

"Wait!" Sergeant Sun suddenly remembered another important matter: "The entrusted task we accepted earlier has not been completed. Yesterday we only searched 19 buildings, and there is still 10 buildings that have not been searched, can you accompany me to complete this search and rescue mission first, this is also a matter of one life. ”

"No problem."

A few minutes later, Lin Zaishan and Sergeant Sun came to the bottom of Building No. 10. Sheriff Sun was about to go upstairs, but Lin Zaishan grabbed him and said, "There are zombies inside, I'll take the lead." After speaking, he entered the corridor first, and Sergeant Sun followed.

Lin Zaishan looked intently in front of the doors of the two units on the first floor for a few seconds, and went straight to the second floor.

Sergeant Sun asked softly, "Captain Lin, aren't we going to search the first floor?" ”

"I just investigated, and there's no one on the first floor."

"You haven't even been in, how do you know there's no one?"

Lin Zaishan understood that it was not convincing to talk to an evidence-oriented person like Sergeant Sun, so he simply turned around, gently and skillfully pried open the doors of the two units, and then motioned for Sergeant Sun to enter. Sergeant Sun immediately entered, searched for 3 minutes to no avail, and said to Lin Zaishan: "There is indeed no one in the two units on the first floor. ”

The two went up to the second floor again, and Lin Zaishan went straight to the third floor after exploring. There were 4 zombies in the stairwell on the third floor, and Lin Zaishan rushed over without care, and it only took 3 seconds to level them all. Then on the fourth floor, he quickly killed 3 more zombies.

Sergeant Sun, who followed closely behind, found that not only did he not get the opportunity to fight zombies, but he didn't even have time to shine a flashlight on any of the zombies' attacks.

"Oh my God, I've never seen anyone with this speed and accuracy, and I never thought zombies could fight like this! This young man's strength is enough to make a big difference in the new provincial capital, right? ”

When Sergeant Sun was distracted, Lin Zaishan had already led him to the sixth floor.

"There's someone in there!" Lin Zaishan suddenly turned around and prompted.

"Really?" Sergeant Sun was surprised and delighted.

Lin Zaishan pointed to the door on his left hand, then took two steps back, and reached out to Sheriff Sun, who was holding a flashlight, and made a gesture of "you please go first". Sergeant Sun immediately understood that this was to make him the first hero to knock on the door to save people, and it seemed that although this young man's force value was amazingly high, he was still very polite and well-behaved.

Sergeant Sun is not a person who is greedy for merit and fame, but when he thinks of his sacrificial teammates, a strong psychological energy pushes him to walk up decisively and knock on the door.

"I am Sergeant Sun Zhenghong, and I was entrusted by Mr. Luo Xiaohu to find his mother, Zhang Xiuqin. Please open the door. ”

A faint sound of footsteps approached from behind the door, and then the shrill and slightly hoarse voice of an elderly woman asked, "...... Invited by Howling Tiger? Is the Howling Tiger still alive? Is he okay? ”

"Yes. We were invited by Mr. Luo Xiaohu, he was injured in the leg, and everything else is fine. ”

"God forbid, God forbid!" The elderly woman muttered excitedly as she opened the security door.

Sergeant Sun's flashlight shone through, and the other party's flashlight shone at the same time.

Sergeant Sun was happy that this elderly woman was the mother the client was looking for, exactly like what he saw in the photo.

When the elderly woman saw Sergeant Sun in a police uniform, tears welled up instantly. Before the end of the world, she had never realized her affection for the police uniform, but after the suffering of the last days, she suddenly saw this familiar uniform in a desperate situation, as if she was bathed in the stability, order and peace of the past.

The elderly woman couldn't help crying, and the breath that had been supported by the longing for her loved ones and the will to survive since the end of the world was suddenly relieved.

Sheriff Sun and Lin Zaishan hurriedly stepped forward to support the elderly woman.

"Auntie, you can rest a little, and we will take you to the new provincial capital to see your son as soon as it is dawn."

Lin Zaishan took out food and water to feed the elderly woman, and it took a while for the latter to regain his strength and mood.

"When the end came, I used to stay in my own house in Building 3, but then my neighbors became like that. I ran downstairs alone and met Sister Li, who usually exercises together, and the two of us were left alive in the whole community. We couldn't run or drive a car when we were old, so we discussed finding a room to lock ourselves up and wait for the authorities to come to our rescue. We picked up a bunch of keys, found this place, waited day after day, waited day after day, and no one came to save us. Three days ago, we ran out of cooking, and Sister Li went to the 3rd floor to find something to eat, and ...... Just ......" the elderly woman wept silently again.

Lin Zaishan and Sheriff Sun hurriedly spoke out to comfort him.

The old woman wiped her tears and said, "I have nothing to eat or drink here, but I have some gold, silver, jewelry, and ornaments. It should be a little thank you from the eldest mother. ”

Sheriff Sun said: "Auntie, you don't have to be polite, your son has already paid us." ”

Lin Zaishan said: "Auntie, you said that we will put away the gold, silver, jewelry, and ornaments for you, and we will transfer them to him after we see your son." ”

"Thank you so much."

At this time, Zhiyangyang, who had been waiting impatiently outside the gate of the community, called: "Captain, you have been gone for so long, I wonder if you have found the treasure and want to eat it yourself." ”

Lin Zaishan smiled: "Don't worry, everything is going well!" ”

The sky was already dark, Lin Zaishan and Sheriff Sun were reluctant to stay because they were still considering the search and rescue of Qin Huanchang, so Sergeant Sun carried the elderly woman downstairs, and Lin Zaishan opened the road in front of him to sweep away the zombies along the road. The three of them soon came to the gate of Fengrui Yayuan, and Lin Fuzi immediately drove over to pick them up. Sergeant Sun helped the elderly woman to ride in the No. 1 car with Lin Zaishan and Zhiyangyang.

Zhiyang Yang asked, "Captain, where are we going next?" ”

Lin Zaishan replied: "Conduct a cross search within 3 kilometers of the surrounding area, even if you dig three feet into the ground, you must also find Qin Huanchang!" ”
