Volume 1 Survival Chapter 4 Pit Stop
I removed the multi-functional saber tied to the protective rope and put it in my trouser pocket, and thinking of the business man's lost mobile phone, I took it out of my trouser pocket and buckled it back on my waist.
This is the intention of my comrades-in-arms, but I can't lose it, I thought to myself, and began to pack up the protective rope.
Although this protective rope is not the first time to use, but it is a little difficult to put it away at this time, because this thing is easy to disassemble, and it is too troublesome to weave, and last time my comrades helped to weave it, and I still haven't learned how to weave it.
I simply wrapped it around my wrist, then put on the buckle and looked at the two people sitting around the ring:
"Let's go, let's go."
I tried to bend over and stand up slowly, but the wind was barely strong enough to withstand it, so I moved in the direction of the front of the car.
As soon as I walked to the next carriage, I had to remove the protective rope again......
Because standing on the roof of the car, you can't see the situation in the carriage at all, the train is moving at high speed, so you can only fold the protective rope in half and bolt it to the ring again, pull the protective rope and stand on the edge of the roof and lean out, so that you can see the scene in the front and rear carriages.
It's a hassle, but it's safe.
Every time I pass through two carriages, I repeat the bolt rope, lean out, look back and forth, and then remove the rope.
The method is circulating, and the situation in the carriages seen is also similar, and even the glass of some carriages has been covered with blood, and nothing can be seen at all.
Just kept going, and had reached the front of the train, and for most of the train, not a single carriage was spared.
The gap between the front of the car and the first car is still relatively large, and you can jump directly from the roof. But if you can't stand on your feet, it's a pity.
I went back and told the two of them:
"You guys wait for me here, hold on to it, don't go wrong, otherwise no one will be able to save you, I'll go to the cab and have a look."
After saying that, I took a deep breath and prepared to jump directly in the direction of the front of the car, mainly to hold the top of the front of the car, stabilize it and then land.
Because of the wind, I had to jump harder than the expected distance, but fortunately, the error in the calculation was not too large, and I held the roof of the car with both hands.
I stretched out my left leg, my foot was parallel to the car to the left, my right leg was bent at right angles, my foot was parallel to the car to the right, and I was lying on the back door of the cab like a gecko.
After his body stabilized, he let go of his hand and landed safely.
I looked into the cab through the small window of the back door, and there was a skinny driver sitting there, probably the conductor.
I saw him looking forward at the scenery, picking up the teacup, unscrewing the teacup lid and taking a sip of tea, and then slowly screwing the teacup lid, very comfortable, it seemed that he didn't know what was going on behind it.
I jumped on the roof of the cab just now, and he didn't even hear the sound of lying on the car......
There was also a middle-aged fat man sitting next to him, lying on a chair with his head hanging on one side, his mouth slightly open, and his stomach lying together regularly, well, obviously sleeping soundly.
Sure that it was safe inside, I pushed the door directly into the turnstile, and the conductor turned his head suddenly, looked at me in surprise and said:
"Comrade, this is the cab, passengers are not allowed to come in casually, please go back to the compartment you are in, if you have any questions, you can consult the flight attendant, thank you!"
The middle-aged fat man also woke up, wiped a handful of saliva, first looked at me sleepily, then rubbed his eyes and stood up and asked me:
"Comrade, why did you come to the cab? Didn't the police stop you? ”
I hastened to identify them, and then gave a brief account of the situation in the back compartment, emphasizing the extent to which the situation had deteriorated.
The conductor was stunned, and the middle-aged fat man stared at me with his mouth wide open the whole time, his face full of incredulity.
"I'm telling you all the truth, it's not going to be good right now, but there's a good chance that there will be surviving passengers, and I need to use the radio right now, oh yes, and how far are we from the next stop?"
Seeing that they still didn't respond, I quickly said what I thought of to respond.
"Ah, yes, yes. The microphone is given to you, press and hold the green button on it to start broadcasting, and there will be a small station in about thirteen minutes. ”
The conductor came to his senses, turned around and picked up the loudspeaker stuck in the slot next to the driver's seat and handed it to me.
I nodded and took the microphone, which was about the same size as my grandfather's mobile phone twenty years ago, thin and with more than a dozen buttons, all of which were simple symbols.
The conductor didn't tell me that I really didn't know what to do......
I flipped the switch, coughed twice into the speaker, and said:
"This is the cab, here is the cab, now there is an unknown mutant monster on the train, and the people who are bitten by the monster attack will mutate in a short time, if there are still survivors, please stay where you are to ensure your safety, all the carriages from the dining car to the cab have all been occupied by the monster, the situation of the second half of the carriage is unknown for the time being, if the carriage you are in is not abnormal, then quickly close the door of the block, the train will arrive at the next station in about thirteen minutes, and the train will slow down and stop after entering the station, After confirming that it is safe, we will look for support to rescue everyone, please be sure to protect yourself from wandering, mutated monsters are very aggressive, and once again emphasize that you must not wander around. ”
I handed the speaker to the conductor: "Here, oh yes, there are two more survivors, on the roof of the carriage, I'll go take them next." ”
After saying that, he opened the back door, walked out, looked up at the roof of the first carriage and shouted:
"You two slow down, I'll pick you up below, one by one."
Halfway through my sentence, a foot in leather shoes stretched out from it, and this kind of business man is always the most active one.
He slowly leaned down, and I raised my hand to catch his foot, and slowly ushered him down, and the other foot of the thing almost stepped on my face.
The man with glasses was much better, he didn't dare to step on it at all, and I almost grabbed his feet and pulled him down.
The two of them had just landed on the ground, arranging their clothes, when a hideous face appeared on the back window of the opposite carriage.
The man in glasses straightened his trouser legs and stood up, staring at the monster inside through the window.
"Mom!" The man with glasses shouted, stumbled back, tripped over the business man behind him, and fell out.
I quickly reached out and grabbed the man with glasses in his backpack, and pulled him back, looking at the train tracks flying quickly on the ground, if this falls, there will be no whole body.
"Be careful, don't stand here, get into the cab."
After saying that, I looked around the frightened man in glasses and looked at the monster banging on the car window.
It was still slapping and scratching, its nails had been lifted by the excessive scratching, and blood-red marks began to appear on the window, but the monster didn't seem to feel any pain.
I gasped and turned to walk into the cab, where the man with glasses and the man with business slumped on the ground and let out a long breath.
The conductor looked back at us and said:
"It won't take long to arrive, and it's almost safe."
"Good"
I agreed, looking down at the man with glasses who took off his schoolbag and fiddled with his phone again:
"Is there a signal?"
The glasses held up the phone, the screen was facing me, and there were only eye-catching red crosses and the words call failure on the screen:
"Still not..."
"There is no mobile phone signal on this part of the road, there is almost a 300-kilometer section, it is said that the transmitter on the signal tower was damaged by a bird, it has been broken for more than a week, and I don't know what bird is so big..."
The conductor turned his head, looked at the man with glasses who had tried repeatedly, and explained:
"This is too remote, the engineering team will come to overhaul once a month at the beginning and middle of the month, this should not have been repaired yet, it is estimated that only the wired landline phone on the service station can be used."
Listening to his words, I sighed and said:
"Okay, let's go ahead and talk about it."
"Well, it's okay, it's going to be a pit stop soon, you can see the front."
The conductor said, and began to operate and prepare to enter the station. Slow down, honk.
"It's finally time to put an end to this."
I raised my arms and stretched my waist, my mind thinking about how to save the survivors, and looked ahead at the small station that was getting closer and closer.
Suddenly, I saw more than a dozen figures rushing out of the sentry in the station, running quickly in the direction of the train!
I suddenly felt bad, rubbed my flesh eyes, looked carefully, got closer and closer, my heart was broken, this station can't be stopped, these people have mutated, this station has fallen!
"Conductor! This station can't stop, keep going! ”
As I spoke, I picked up the microphone:
"Attention survivors, attention to survivors, the current station has also been invaded by mutated infected people, the train will not stop for the time being, please hold on to the survivors, the train will continue to move forward, choose a safe place to park and rescue!"
Putting down the microphone, I watched in amazement at the monsters attracted by the sound of the horn entering the station, and some of them pounced on the train tracks and were directly crushed over......
"It's over... It's all over... It's the end of the world... We're all going to die..."
The business man was almost about to collapse, and the hope that had just been ignited was dashed in an instant.
"Don't talk about those useless ones, you're going to die again, and your girlfriend is dying in vain!"
Hearing my words, the business man was stunned, his head drooped, and he stopped squeaking.
"There are only five or six staff members at this station, and very few people come here to take the bus, why are there so many people here."
The middle-aged fat man looked out and said.
"Don't care about those, train captain, run for a while after leaving the station, slow down and stop, let's get off the train to rescue the survivors, the carriages are all closed, and the mutated monsters can't get out, but I don't know how long the survivors can last, the train is already like this, and it will become a hidden danger when it comes to a safe station, and it may even make this bad situation expand indefinitely, the survivors rescue them, trap those monsters in the carriage, and then come back to deal with them after we find support, this is the safest way."
I told the conductor about the new plan that I had come up with quickly.
"Okay comrade soldier, listen to you. It's 140 kilometers away from the next station, so let's drive about 40 kilometers and then park. ”
The conductor then told us that the train could reach a top speed of 300 kilometers per hour, and that we would now be at full speed in less than 10 minutes to reach the planned location.
I can't help but think of my first year in the army, and there were slogans on the train station celebrating the speed of more than 200 kilometers per hour... Just thinking about it, his eyes shifted to the big tea jar in front of the bridge:
"Who's this old antique cup, I'll drink saliva."
"Mine mine, drink it, there's still hot water in the pot here."
The middle-aged fat man took a thermos from his lap and grabbed a few handfuls of peanuts from his coat pocket:
"If you're hungry, eat some peanut mats, that's all I have..."
