100 cages

"The following broadcast content is announced throughout the city! Please note! The following broadcast content is announced throughout the city! Due to the sudden invasion and ravages of the highly susceptible virus, the Jiangbei Municipal Government has been unable to resist and maintain normal order, and the defense systems such as the Jiangbei Municipal Institute of Virus Infection Prevention and Control and the Jiangbei Municipal Public Health Bureau have collapsed on all fronts, and the field forces are unable to provide armed shelter and support, so please find resources to save yourself from the people who have not yet been inspired······"

"The United Nations International Commission on the A.D. Calendar has announced the inauguration of the New Era Calendar, the Beta (β) epoch, with an annual value of 0001, and the Alpha (α) epoch ending at 00:00 on September 25, 2264!"

"The Snow Country government led the formation of the International Celtic Cross Shield Defense Alliance with the remaining 17 countries, and will join the Snow Country Armed Forces to participate in the clean-up operation in Jiangbei City."

"The above broadcast content is announced all over the city! Posted on January 1, 0001 in the Beta (β) Era at 8:48 AM, welcome to the new world. ”

- When I heard the city-wide radio in Gangbuk City, I thought, the real battle royale has begun!

- Excerpt from Wen Ying's "Escape Diary", January 1, 0001 in the Beta Era, the weather is fine

·······················

"Why are new epochs and era names being introduced? What's the point of them doing this? ”

"And what is the Celtic Cross Shield? They used the word clean-up instead of rescue, did they mean to slaughter the city? ”

"Why release the news at this time, without shying away from the panic of the civilian population, isn't 50,000 people human?"

The group stood by the fence, listening to the radio, watching the reptiles in the distance rush towards the source of the sound, swimming swiftly through the jungle, muttering to themselves.

Every question haunts everyone's mind, but every question also has no answer.

Dai Yiqing looked out from a high place, and only felt that although this world was very big, it was like a cage, enclosing everyone in it.

The difference between a zoo and a safari park is that the scope of the safari park is very large, and it is humans who are protected by watching animals, and humans try to use artificial pastures and wild areas to simulate the living environment of animals in the wild jungle, hoping to make those carnivores with ferocious blood flow to adapt to the new artificial home.

But after all, a cage is a cage, no matter how big it is, it is a cage, and this cannot be changed.

Suddenly, Dai Yiqing felt that there was a slippery and greasy thing licking her feet and neck, she subconsciously looked down and saw a little yellow dog looking at Dai Yiqing with his head held high, standing up half of his body and opening his mouth wide to spit out his tongue, looking at Dai Yiqing happily.

"Xiao Huang!" Dai Yijing shouted happily, squatted down happily and hugged Xiao Huang in her hands, she hugged Xiao Huang into her arms like a family member, and the joy on her face almost filled her eyes.

Chen Yang's eyes came over, and he saw Wen Ying's eyes also looking at Xiao Huang and Dai Yiqing, the expression in her eyes Chen Yang had seen it on Dai Yiqing's body before, it should be called envy.

Chen Yang said to Wen Ying: "Thank you! ”

Wen Ying and Chen Yang glanced at each other and said lightly, "Take what you need!" ”

Xiao Huang licked Dai Yiqing's ears, making her giggle, Dai Yiqing's head lifted from Xiao Huang's hair, and then said seriously: "Xiao Huang, it's time for you to take a bath, you stink so badly!" ”

Xiao Huang didn't know why, tilted his head and looked at Dai Yiqing.

Three days later, Chen Yang, Dai Yiqing, Zheng Jing, Wen Ying, and Fat Man, all of them sat at a round table, sitting silently under the dim incandescent light.

They were thinking, and there were things that needed to be thought about and planned, after all, there was not much time left.

In the past three days, they have done the following work:

Chen Yang and Wen Ying went to the entrance and exit gate in the southwest corner of Jiangbei City, Snow Country, to explore the current access control of Jiangbei City.

Fat Man and Zheng Jing and Dai Yijing survey the defenses around the dam and whether there are any uninfected survivors, and confirm the hostility of the other party.

Fat Man and Zheng Jing also need to sort out the living materials in the dam, estimate the time when it can be fully supplied, and survey the materials within 10 kilometers of the vicinity.

Chen Yang and Wen Ying probed the inventory of several government material management centers and supermarkets in Jiangbei City for subsidies in case of emergency.

And the information they got was a bit of a surprise to them.

It could even be said to be bad.

Chen Yang: "We chose the entry and exit gate in the southwest corner, in fact, the purpose is to avoid a large number of reptiles and infected people, and it can also prove the current situation in Jiangbei City, and the information we received is not optimistic." ”

Wen Ying's voice was like an elf in the dark night: "Jiangbei City has confirmed martial law in the whole city, a radius of 50 kilometers outside the city forms an encirclement, locked by the armed forces, the military branches are mainly army and field army, followed by the air force and navy, equipped with anti-aircraft guns and main battle tanks, if you want to go out from the front, it is basically impossible, more troublesome things are still to come, from the dam to the nearest pass, even in remote suburbs, the density of reptiles has reached 10-12 / square kilometer, At this density we want to reach the nearest pass unscathed, unless we have planes. ”

The fat man interjected and said, "Then get a plane!" Let's get a plane to fly out! ”

Wen Ying glanced at him and said: "There are anti-aircraft interceptor missiles and anti-aircraft guns at the pass, although I haven't confirmed it, but I can basically conclude that all the incoming and outgoing flying bodies in Jiangbei City have been locked, and whoever dares to fly out has only a dead end." ”

The fat man was stunned: "What does this mean?" ”

Zheng Jing, who was silent, suddenly said: "This shows that Jiangbei City has been completely sealed, no one can get out, and this place has become a cage, trapping everything, mutated reptiles, infected carriers, and uninfected survivors······ All of them are sealed in the city, and no one wants to escape! ”

A deathly silence brewed, and even though the worst outcome had been thought of, when it really happened, I still couldn't accept it.

Zheng Jing suddenly said: "Then I will also tell you about our situation, if the dry food in the dam is calculated according to five heads, it can maintain about three months of stock······

The fat man let out a sigh of relief, and said with a rare smile: "It's okay, it's okay, we still have three months to do it slowly." ”

Zheng Jing: "But the clean water in the dam can only last for five days······"

The fat man's face was like his throat choking on walnut kernels, and his face turned the color of pig liver.

Zheng Jing: "I've surveyed all the natural water sources within a 10-kilometer radius, and all of them are polluted, which means that if we can't find a clean water source, maybe we won't last a week and we'll die of thirst." ”

Chen Yang added: "Wen Ying and I went to the municipal material management center and several supermarkets, and we couldn't get into the center of the crawler density, so we could only wander around the periphery to look for it, but the situation was very bad, the food and medicine were almost looted, I believe these things may have been snatched and hidden by the previous survivors, but if we assume that nine out of ten of the later survivors have become reptiles, then we will not be able to get these supplies, this is the current situation." ”

Dai Yijing hugged Xiao Huang and couldn't bear to see their silent and helpless appearance, so she said, "If we can find a clean water source, then there is hope to get out of here, right?" ”

Chen Yang barely squeezed out a smile, touched Qinqing's head and said, "You're right, as long as there is still a glimmer of hope, we can't give up." ”

Chen Yang raised his head and looked at everyone and said: "We can sit here, just want to leave Jiangbei City before the blow comes, the current situation is at least hopeful, not that there is no possibility at all, as long as we solve the problem of water sources, leaving Jiangbei City may only be one opportunity away." ”

Wen Ying: "I agree with Chen Yang's opinion, I want to leave here and wait for the result of death here, you can look outside." ”

Fat man: "I'm really feeding the whole family by myself now, I'm not hungry, I don't have anything to worry about, I'll go wherever Chen Yang goes, even if it's a dead man, don't become that kind of disgusting thing, you guys look at it." ”

Zheng Jing: "I agree with Chen Yang. ”

Dai Yijing said crisply: "I want to follow Uncle Chen Yang all the time!" ”

Xiao Huang suddenly snorted coldly, as if expressing his determination, bringing a trace of vitality and laughter to this cold and silent night.

Chen Yang took out a wooden board from the waste pile, then grabbed a piece of metal and carved two words on it with a sharp point: water source.

"Since we all have the same goal, the most urgent issue at the moment is the water problem, we are all carriers of the virus, not complete uninfected people, so clean water is important to us."

Wen Ying: "Let me first talk about my understanding, the water supply system of ordinary cities is divided into two sources: surface water source and underground water source, there are three purposes of domestic water supply/production water supply/fire water, Jiangbei City can be listed as the highest S level according to the city level, so the division of its water supply system must be very clear and clear. ”

Chen Yang: "You mean that we can start with the groundwater supply system?" ”

Wen Ying: "This is just one of the points, usually among the three categories of domestic water supply/production water supply/fire water, the water purification system of domestic water is the most thorough, so combined with domestic water supply, underground water, these two points should be considered, we should be able to find what we want." ”

The fat man's eyes widened and he looked at the woman in black in front of him in disbelief, the clueless water source problem just now became clear and clear after her analysis, and the direction and purpose were very strong.

The fat man couldn't help but say, "If I don't like you, I really want to give you a thumbs up!" ”

Wen Ying didn't respond when she heard this, and turned her head away lightly.
