Chapter 55: A New Foothold

"Do you want to get off the highway?" Gao Ziyuan asked with some hesitation, the car in front of him is really a lot of visual inspection, and it is not at all possible to solve it by going down and pushing a few handfuls. But if Leng Yan insists on moving forward, then he will also clean up without saying a word.

The car was quiet, and everyone was listening to Leng Yan's decision with their ears pricked up.

"Let's go down," Leng Yan immediately began to drive up the ramp next to him, decisively abandoning the road with an unknown future.

Although the road ahead may be cleared, but who knows how many such sections are in front of the front, instead of wasting time on these meaningless things, it is better to take the provincial road, and it is better to be able to move forward a little bit than to get stuck on the highway. When the time comes, there will be a traffic jam in front and a group of zombies in the back, and they will have nowhere to escape at all, and they will be dumplings directly.

The ramp was clean, and he crossed the highway toll gate smoothly, the original railing was long gone, and a few toll collectors turned into zombies and were wandering in that small space.

But whenever a car drove by, the zombies would hit the nearest glass like crazy, but until it was covered in black blood, they couldn't get out of it.

The situation below is not much better than on the highway, but it can still be used to get the car through. They had been on the highway for days, and now the situation in the city was much more chaotic than before, and although many people were still afraid to go far, more and more people dared to leave their homes and come out to search for something to use.

He had no intention of entering the city, and continued to drive around the perimeter of the city. Although it is more convenient to enter the city, it means that they have a great chance of being blocked in unknown places, so Leng Yan decisively gave up the idea of taking a shortcut.

Even though he took the longest detour, the tall buildings still appeared in his sight one after another. However, it seems that there are no residential buildings nearby, only some large shopping malls, and many high-rise buildings under construction.

There are a lot of cars parked on the side of the road, but there are not many zombies wandering outside, hearing a car passing by, they are like hearing a supermarket sale, and suddenly come to the spirit of the uncle and aunt, chasing behind the car and frantically absorbing the car exhaust.

Seeing the street sign next to him, Leng Yan slowly slowed down and started driving in the direction indicated by the street sign.

At this time, he didn't have to care if he would stop illegally, Leng Yan directly hit the railing standing on the side of the road, and rushed up with one foot on the accelerator. There was originally a sidewalk above, and apart from their car, there were some scattered zombies.

Seeing Leng Yan brake, several people in the car rushed down at great speed, eliminating the zombies that surrounded them.

"Someone is here," when they killed the zombies, the survivors in the supermarket on the first floor had already found Leng Yan and several people.

"They seem to be coming towards us..."

"You see they still have weapons, are they here to save us?"

"Isn't it, the car is obviously private, and these people are a little too young, right?"

Everyone stood in the thick glass window and talked about it, completely ignoring the provincial logo in front of the license plate. At this time, how many people can cross two provinces to come here?

"Open the door and let them in," one woman suggested.

"They must have come looking for food, we have so much to eat, we don't have anything to share with them."

"Why give food to strangers? So many of us don't know when someone will come to our rescue, and what if we start to divide the food at this time, and we don't have enough to eat in the future? ”

There was soon a great difference of opinion, and it was the two women who proposed to let them in, and the three men who opposed their entry, the only one of whom was an older man, who stood there frowning and did not express his opinion at once.

Leng Yan parked the car and walked straight in the direction of the supermarket, and he saw several people gathered there in the supermarket at a glance as if they were talking about something.

There were only 6 people in the supermarket, 2 women and 4 men. They were all supermarket staff and security guards in the supermarket who stayed behind to work overtime for various reasons on the day of the disaster.

The eldest is named Li Ke, 50 years old, and is the manager of the supermarket. On the day of the disaster, a batch of goods expected to arrive at the supermarket early was not delivered as scheduled, and it happened that Li Ke's wife and daughter were not at home on a trip, so he changed shifts with the manager who was supposed to be in charge of picking up the goods, and he could rest at home the next day anyway. As a result, who would have thought that he would not be able to leave here with this change.

One of the two women is named Liu Zhen, 45 years old, is the squad leader of the fresh food department, and today it is her turn to be in charge of handing over the goods this time, so even if she scolded for a while because the goods did not arrive on time, she still reluctantly stayed. After all, such a thing still rarely happens, even if you want to find someone to change shifts, you can't find it, and those ordinary employees under her have already left because they got off work and took their fingerprints.

The other is named Wang Yi, 40 years old this year, and is a small accountant in the supermarket. Originally, he was just a temporary worker, but he finally signed a contract, and his salary has risen a lot. But for her, who has been renting a house and dreams of buying a suite, it still seems a little too little. So she always takes every opportunity to work overtime, after all, overtime pay is 1.5 times the usual salary, and she never misses such an opportunity. After knowing that a large number of goods were delayed due to road problems, she took the initiative to find the manager Li Ke and took the initiative to apply to stay with them to work overtime. Li Ke can still call the shots for such a request, and he can indeed save a little effort by having one more person, so he decisively agreed to the woman's request.

There are also three younger ones who are supermarket security guards, Wang Bing is 30 years old, Chi Tong is 25 years old, and Wu Qi is 27 years old.

That night, all six people who stayed in the supermarket joined the army of goods moving.

When they finished moving things and handed over, the hour hand was still 5 minutes away to 12 o'clock, and the three people who were in a hurry to leave hurriedly returned to their respective lounges.
