Chapter 202 Osaka
The soldiers in the buggy roared, manipulating their machine guns to shoot several Rippers away, and blood bloomed among the beasts. Probably because they were afraid of the strong firepower of the other party, these cunning beasts chose to evacuate, leaving behind four or five corpses of the same kind, and the others ran away at once.
The off-road vehicle eventually stopped next to the woman in white, who could smell the rubber smell of the wheels after the sun exposure. She looked up and saw the soldier in the car jumping down, stretched out her hand and smiled, "It's okay, come up." ”
She held out her hand and burst into tears.
The convoy was parked on the side of the railway, and the woman in white was in a passenger car, the spacious compartment had apparently been remodeled. Most of the seats were removed, leaving plenty of space. A woman in white sat in a seat, and a bespectacled Oriental man looked like a doctor in the convoy.
After he sanitized the feet of the woman in white, another woman next to her, who looked like a nurse, wrapped a sterilization bandage around her and told her not to walk during this time.
As it sounds, this suggestion probably has little chance of coming to fruition.
But the woman in white still thanked her very gratefully, after all, now, medicine, even just disinfectant water, has become a precious resource.
"They were husband and wife, the doctor's surname was Chen, and the nurse was his wife. Thankfully, we were able to get all the way here safely. The soldier got into the car and said, putting a kettle and bread into the hands of the woman in white, "What's your name?" ”
"Asuka Saito, who are you?"
"We came from Midway and just arrived in Kyoto."
The soldier sat next to her, as if embarrassed, and finally scratched his head and said, "By the way, my name is Budi, and it's nice to meet you." ”
He held out his hand.
But when she heard a dry cough, the woman in white looked up, and another person came up in the car, who was the driver of the off-road vehicle. Soldier Budi hurriedly jumped up and said, "Let me introduce you, this is our head, Lin Xi." ”
Lin Ci took off his hat, revealing an Oriental face, and his skin was slightly darker. He looked at the woman in white and said, "Excuse me, why are you wandering here alone?" ”
Budi seemed to hear what was going on and wanted to say something. Lin Ci glared at him, and the soldier quickly closed his mouth and obediently stepped aside.
"My name is Asuka Saito, sir." The woman clenched the kettle nervously and said, "I'm from a nearby city, and there are still people in the city." ”
"But just six months ago, we were attacked. There were so many monsters that suddenly appeared, they breached many bases in the city, and dozens of us escaped together, and I got separated from them and escaped. ”
Asuka Saito looked up at Hayashi and said, "When we were in the city, we kept searching for survivors by radio, and then we got in touch with someone from another city. There are still people alive in the city called Osaka, and they say that there are plenty of resources in the city, whether it is medicine or food, and they let us go and say they will provide shelter. Of course, we also need work in exchange for these things. ”
"The people at the hotel were already planning to move because we had scarce food and most importantly, we had run out of medicine that we could find. Unfortunately, we didn't have time to do that, so we ......"
Lin Ci nodded: "So you're going to Osaka?" ”
"Yes, sir."
"Do you know how to get there?"
"You know, I've been to Osaka before, before the first shock, of course. A dozen or so kilometers further along the railway, there will be a road to the town. ”
Lin Ci said: "Okay, you eat something first, replenish your water, and then rest, maybe I want you to lead the way to that city." ”
Asuka Saito's expression was a little panicked: "You ......"
"Don't worry, we'll trade things for something. Take care of her. ”
Lin Ci shook his head, the soldiers he had recruited during the journey. The soldiers remained in the habit of always addressing him as their commander. Lin Ci got out of the car and came to another car. Only a few people designated by Lin Ci in the team could enter this car, and in addition to him, there were also Kate, Han Mengdie, Xiao Jiu, and their closest friends.
In the second half of the trip, there were two more. One is the doctor Chen Ran, and the other is the driver Fan Ping.
When Lin Ci got on the bus, Chen Ran and Fan Ping were in the carriage.
"How? That's okay with that woman, right? Dr. Chan lifted his glasses.
Lin Ci sat down and said Saito Asuka's words briefly, "This is just her side of the story, unless I go to the city where she lives to confirm, I will be skeptical of her words." The reason was simple, she had no weapons on her body, and she could hardly find any external injuries other than blisters on her feet. ”
"That is, she is too 'clean'. Unless she was lucky, I couldn't think of how an unarmed woman could escape a new type of hunt, and the one that came out unscathed. ”
Han Mengdie closed the book in her hand: "You mean, she didn't appear here by chance?" ”
"I don't know, maybe she's really lucky. Or maybe someone is behind it. Lin Ci showed a hint of vigilance.
"Anyway, I'd like to try it once, what do you think?"
"I'm going to drive." Fan Ping stood up directly and said.
Lin Ci nodded, "Then I'll go and get Kate's guys back, everyone eat something, and then I'll go to Osaka." ”
At one o'clock in the afternoon, the convoy turned around, and Lin Ci drove the off-road vehicle in front. In the second seat, the Ukrainian beauty Asuka Saito sit, and Budi's eyes always fell on the woman, Lin Ci shook his head, reminding him to pay attention to his surroundings.
Sure enough, as Asuka Saito said, after walking back about seven or eight kilometers, I saw a road. The convoy took to the road, and after more than an hour of being led by Asuka Saito, the Osaka signs were already visible.
With an inn in the distance, Osaka is huge. The convoy was temporarily parked on the side of the road, and Lin Ci was holding a telescope to observe the city, which should be able to accommodate a million people. In a city like this, facilities are more complete, and shops and hospitals are essential.
In other words, if there are survivors in the city, they will be able to get supplies.
After observing for a while, Lin Ci sat back and gestured to the convoy behind, and the off-road vehicle started first and drove ahead. Lin Ci increased his speed slightly and distanced himself from the convoy a little.
When they were about to enter the city, the off-road vehicle suddenly blew a tire, and the car skidded and spun in circles. Asuka Saito screamed, Budi was still calm, and Lin Ci did not change his expression. He kept the steering wheel steady, slammed on the brakes, and finally the car braked on the side of the road.
Seeing the situation of the off-road vehicle, Fan Ping pressed the horn, and three short horn sounds were the signal for the team to stop urgently.
Lin Ci took off his sweat towel and gestured to Fan Ping, asking him not to get out of the car. Figures kept popping up in the hotel, men getting up from the rooftops of houses, or in abandoned cars on both sides of the road. They all had guns in their hands and pointed at Lin Ci and the convoy behind them.
Lin Ci raised his hand and said loudly: "We have no malicious intentions, it's just that our supplies are almost out of supply and we want to come here to make some supplements." Look, we also saved people from another city, and she can prove what I said. ”
He looked at Asuka Saito, and the woman nodded and stood up and said, "He's right, I'm Asuka Saito from Vader Town." The one I spoke to you on the radio before was my uncle Jett, these are nice guys, and their doctors even helped me bandage my wounds. ”
A rugged voice at the inn cried, "Where's Jet? Why didn't he come? ”
Asuka Saito replied, "We were attacked, the hotel was finished, and I was the only one who survived." ”
Moments later, a car pulled out of the hotel. Three men got out of the car, the first of whom was a burly man, wearing a tank top and jeans, and carrying a rifle on his back. He came over and shouted, "That's right, we welcome any guest." You need supplies, no problem, but we won't provide them for free, but if you need to stay overnight, there are plenty of empty houses in the city. ”
"We can barter." Lin Ci jumped out of the driveway, "We need water and food, and we are running out of medicine." But we have ammunition and guns that we can exchange with you. ”
The man laughed heartily and said to the two companions next to him, "Ammunition and guns, there is nothing more exciting than this." Let's be honest, we're running out of ammunition and we're breaking down some of our weapons that need to be replaced. ”
"Then you may come in. But the car must be left outside the hotel, you can bring guns, but my people need to keep an eye on you, how" The man gestured with his finger to his eyes.
"It's fair, I'm Lin Ci." Lin Ci stretched out his hand.
The man shook him, retracted and said, "Hey, it's not a small hand." You can call me Tarzan. ”
Lin Xi gestured to the back, and Fan Ping nodded and sounded the whistle a few times. Then soldiers came down from two converted heavy trucks.
Eight of them, including Budi, were fully armed.
Taishan looked at Lin Ci as if he was a little surprised, and he said, "You are very childlike to your guards. ”
Lin Ci naturally didn't break it, and said according to his meaning: "That's right, they are the best." ”
Lin Ci left four of the soldiers and Kate to guard the car, and the car also contained their supplies, the most important of which were guns and ammunition, which were all collected during the journey. At this point in time, these things are hard currency.
Lin Ci followed Taishan's people into the hotel, and could see that most of the roads outside the hotel had been blocked, leaving only all the way inside. Tarzan said, "These are all set up to prevent those monsters from breaking in, and we have planted explosives at the necessary points. Otherwise, we wouldn't have lasted so long. ”
"It's surprising that on the way here, I haven't seen a city like yours for a long time."
"Where are you from?"
Lin Ci said casually: "Kamakura, the situation over there is really bad. ”
Tarzan spread his hands and said, "Our side is not necessarily very good, not long ago there were some people who wanted to venture to Kobe, I don't know how they are now." ”
When they stopped, in front of an inn in the city, Tarzan said, "You can rest here first, of course the place will not be too clean." I'm going to get someone to get you something to eat, and then we'll talk about the deal. ”
"Okay."
The man beckoned to Asuka Saito again: "Can you tell me about your uncle, I'm sorry that such a thing happened." If we had known earlier, we might have been able to do something. ”
Asuka Saito walked over and shook his head, "It's none of your business, sir. ”
As they drifted apart, the people of the forest shrine walked into the hotel one after another, and Budi was still looking at the back of Saito's asuka from afar.
"Do a good job of guarding first." Budi called seven people, assigned them briefly, and went to several locations in the hotel.
Tarzan also had some people staying, they were not as skilled as Budi's soldiers, and the men simply crouched in the shop across the street from the hotel to keep an eye on them.
Lin Xi picked a few rooms, and the bed in the room didn't know where it went, and it was covered with dust everywhere. The women in the convoy had already begun to sweep up, and after a few moments, there was at least a place in the room to sit.
After Lin Ci drank a few sips of water, he stood up and walked to the window. Looking across the street, Tarzan's people still couldn't stop in the shop. Suddenly he felt a little dizzy, but a cold sensation rose from his chest, and the dizziness subsided.
Then he heard Shayaga say in his mind: "The drug ingredient has been detected, in your human terms, it seems to be a sleeping pill, but the medicinal properties are stronger. ”
Lin Ci turned to look, and Aoi didn't seem to be affected. But the others had already fallen to the ground, but Han Mengdie suddenly opened her eyes, and her right eye became extremely black, and it returned to normal after a while. Then she sat up with her head in her hands: "What's the matter?" ”
Looking at the fallen Saito Asuka, Lin Ci frowned, he went to the other rooms to take a look, and the people who had eaten were indeed unconscious, even the Budi soldiers, who had just drunk the water sent by the townspeople. Lin Ci can imagine that this is probably the case in the convoy outside the town, so I don't know if Kate will be recruited.
"Dream Butterfly, go see Kate." Lin Ci said.
"Boss, it's already okay."
In a three-story house, the furniture in the hall was almost empty, and there were several boxes in the middle. Two of the wooden crates were opened, and heavy weapons and ammunition were piled up haphazardly.
The others quickly picked up their guns from the two wooden boxes and loaded them with bullets. Tarzan grabbed the walkie-talkie and said, "You go and deal with the guys in the back, remember not to kill if you can." ”
A man with a beard laughed, "These pigs don't want to know how our stuff came from." ”
"This time it's a surprise, I wanted to trick those guys to come over, but I didn't expect only one woman to come. However, this woman helped us catch a big fish, which is not bad. Tarzan laughed.
"No matter who it is, as long as it's not from our Osaka Castle, all of them must be handed over. This is what it takes to live until now, you know! ”
"Okay, I see."
Tarzan stuck two guns in his waist, picked up a rifle and kicked the door open, saying, "Let's go, let's go and greet the guests." ”
