act90: Torrent

Song Yao and Luo Yu solved the walking corpse wandering in the hall, and rushed to support Song Jiu with two sick militiamen, but ran to the door but saw Xu Aifei holding Song Jiu and crying loudly, Song Yao and the two glanced at each other, and were about to urge, but saw Song Jiu remove the quilt in front of Xu Aifei.

Song Yao's eyes were outstanding, and at a glance she saw a large piece of red on Xu Aifei's waist, frowned and sighed at the same time, shook her head gloomily, and turned around and left the door.

"Luo Yu, come with me." Song Yao called and took away the girl who was still stunned, the gunfire and the wind and thunder upstairs were mixed together, and the two fought, after all, the natural roar was better.

The private hospital is only four stories high, and Song Yao and the four of them chased after it all the way, and many corpses fell in the stairwell, scattered bullet casings everywhere, and when they approached the top floor, they heard the sound of footsteps going down.

Song Yao motioned for a few people to stop, and asked aloud, "Brother Ming?" ”

"It's me." Ming Junwei's somewhat hurried voice came from above, and after a while, Lin Dao Chang also ran down, and the militia behind him was carrying a person, Luo Yu looked at it, it was Xiao Wei.

"Is Xiao Wei okay?" Song Yao frowned and asked.

"It's okay, go back to the bar, I see a walking corpse going out." Ming Junwei ran down the hall with everyone, suddenly remembered the second person who chased in, and hurriedly asked, "Where is Song Wine?" ”

"He's on the second floor, you go back first, I'll call him." Song Yao explained briefly, turned around and went back, and as soon as she showed up, she saw Song Jiu walking over with the long-haired girl.

Without waiting for Song Yao to ask, Song Jiu spoke first: "What about Brother Ming?" Is it down? ”

"It's going down." Song Yao nodded, walked to the side and hugged Xu Aifei, Xu Aifei's face was pale, and she didn't know what Song Jiu told her, her previous emotional collapse had improved, but Song Yao could feel that her body had been trembling, it was the kind of trembling from the bone marrow.

It was completely dark, but the wind and rain still did not stop, and Ming Junwei took the militia upstairs to save Xiao Wei who was sick, but the trouble around the island did not end there, and a greater panic was spreading.

When Ming Junwei led people to rush to the second floor, his first reaction was the same as Song Jiu, the soldiers were in chaos, and he couldn't distinguish friend or foe in the dark.

Ming Junwei realized that the momentum was a little bad, so he made a ruthless decision and ordered the militia with guns to shoot indiscriminately, first scattering the walking corpses that filled the entire floor. Lin Daochang didn't join in the fun with the gun, his ears were pointed, and he heard that there seemed to be movement above, so he rushed forward single-handedly and undisciplinedly, and turned into a predator again before the walking corpse could talk, sawing the corpses all over the ground, and saved Xiao Wei who fell into a coma.

Song Yao and the others were hiding in the duty room at the time, but Ming Junwei didn't receive a response to his shouts several times, so he estimated that a few people might also run upstairs, so he took someone over. Under the guidance of Lin Daochang, he cleared up the many walking corpses scattered into the office, and then returned with Xiao Wei, who was safe and sound.

Ming Junwei saw the signal of the graduate student, and the group of walking corpses who rushed out of the hospital was not much, because there were only thirty or forty people admitted to the hospital for treatment, and they swept upstairs and downstairs, and it was estimated that there were only a dozen people who ran out, and the left-behind people all retreated into the bar, and it was not a big deal to think about it, so they just went down and killed them. However, Ming Junwei forgot one thing, the people who retreated into the bar were all descendants, and the friends, partners, and children of these militiamen were still in KTV and hotels!

For combatants, a dozen walking corpses are a handful of threats, but for non-combatants, one or two walking corpses can cause catastrophe. Ming Junwei thought that all the people should be soldiers, and he also considered a situation similar to the current one, but in the end it was not implemented. Compared with fighting desperately, people still have food, clothing, housing and transportation, and the personnel must have a reasonable division of labor, so as to give full play to the greatest value. Of course, this idea must be based on relative security, and the current situation hits the soft underbelly of the roundabout model, where the fighters are concentrated and the weakest link is exposed under the noses of the walking corpse.

The graduate student realized the danger the moment he found the walking corpse rushing out of the hospital, there were only three militiamen left in the bar, they came down late, and they didn't keep up with the pace of Ming Junwei and others, so they simply retreated to protect the people in the bar. The graduate student handed over the searchlight to Yinuo, and jumped down the pipe from the second floor with three militiamen

When Ming Junwei and the others went downstairs, the four graduate students had already started to engage with the walking corpses above, but they were still a step slower after all, and the non-combatants who stayed behind followed the instructions of the graduate students, went back to their residences and took a bath and got into the bed, on the one hand, to avoid the erosion of acid rain, on the other hand, to enjoy the rare leisure, but this laxity cost their lives. The left-behind personnel didn't realize the danger at all, the air raid siren was a walking corpse warning, and Ming Junwei didn't concentrate them in the underground billiard hall, so it invisibly created an illusion for them - the problem was not big.

The door of the room is wide open, the personnel are not vigilant, and the environment is relatively closed, in this case, the result does not need to be repeated at all, it can only be described as tragic.

The four graduate students tried their best to save, but the results were unacceptable, the left-behind people all lived on the first floor, and there was only one exit from KTV, except for a few who fled into the bathroom in a panic, the rest were all killed, and they were disemboweled by friends and partners who used to get along day and night, and they were torn into shredded meat all over the ground.

The situation of the express hotel can be better, firstly, there are not many walking corpses who come up, and secondly, the group of riverbank female dependents brought by Song Jiu are frightened birds, and when they hear the air raid siren, they remember the night of the riverbank camp, so the personnel are relatively concentrated, hiding in a few houses until the rescuers arrive.

From the time the alarm sounded to the dust fell, in just half an hour, the entire camp around the island was cut by half, and in the end, there were less than 50 people left in the bar lobby.

The city was pouring rain, the blood flowed around the island, and the lights of the past were no longer shining, except for whispering sighs and incessant sobbing and crying. Many people stood at the door of the bar in a daze, looking at the pouring rain, their eyes were a little dazed, and the meaning contained in the blankness was incomprehension, unwillingness, and disbelief.

Just a few days ago, they had fought a death match with a well-armed intruder, killing their way through the crowd of corpses that raged throughout the city, but today, the walking corpses in the camp were less than a fraction of the corpses in the city that day, and they caused unimaginable casualties. The confusion was followed by a wake-up, and those who survived suddenly realized that no matter how many times they narrowly escaped their lives, they still couldn't change the reality of falling to the top of the food chain, they still couldn't sit back and relax, and they still needed to be ready for the last dawn at all times.

This kind of vigilance is full of blood and tears, and it cannot make people feel the slightest joy.

The militiamen can be sad and dazed, but Song Jiu and Ming Junwei have no time to taste the bitter fruit, as the backbone of the team, they have to find out the reason for the change.

Torches lit on all sides of the bar lobby, and some of the frightened people fell asleep, some sat on the side holding weapons and wine bottles in a daze, and Ming Junwei and others gathered on the second floor, trying to find a reasonable explanation for this tragic accident.

"There's no way a walking corpse can sneak in." The blood stains on the graduate student's face still had time to wipe away, and the young face was full of self-blame and guilt, and his voice was low and firm: "We were still patrolling a few days ago, I just went to the four sides to seal and check, the fence is not broken, and there is no trace of the walking corpse entering and leaving." ”

"I also went up to the roof to take a look, and before the air raid sirens sounded, there was no sign of the corpses in the city approaching the roundabout." Liu Yan was soaking wet, with a large area of water under his feet, he did not participate in the battle between the hospital and the accommodation area, and when the siren sounded, he climbed to the top of the high-rise building, braving the acid rain that everyone could not avoid, acting as the only eye around the island.

"What's going on now? The corpses are coming? Ming Junwei took off his blindfold and threw it aside, his face full of sadness.

"Well, it's scattered, and the rain and thunder seem to be interfering with their cognitive abilities." Liu Yan is as calm as ever, for him, life and death have long faded, even if the roundabout is destroyed today, don't want to see any sadness in his expression.

Cook Niangjia and Lu Qian came up from downstairs, with a tired look on their faces, looked at the record book in their hands, and said, "Casualty statistics are not easy to do, many people ...... Unrecognizable, only approximate numbers. ”

"Go and rest." Ming Junwei sighed, looked at the brass dial at the bar, and many pictures that should not have appeared appeared in his mind, pinched his eyebrows, and asked, "How is Song Jiu?" ”

"That girl was bitten." Yinuo's face was gloomy, this kind of scene can always evoke many memories, the same rainy night, the same result.

Ming Junwei looked at the casualty record with his hand, didn't figure out anything, a burst of irritability came up, waved his hand, and said, "Let's disperse first, it's time to rest, I'll go to the warehouse to get the rations and water later." ”

Everyone answered, silently got up and prepared to leave, at this time, the graduate student, who had been frowning, suddenly raised his face, and stopped talking several times.

"What's wrong?" Lin Daochang noticed the strangeness of the graduate student and asked, "It's all here, what else can't be said?" ”

The people who stood up stopped again and cast their puzzled glances.

The graduate student thought and thought, gritted his teeth and said, "I don't know what to say......"

"What's the problem?" Ming Junwei narrowed his eyes, he knew that graduate students would not be untargeted, since it was difficult to speak, it meant that things might not be easy to accept.

"When I went to check the four sides of the door...... A corpse was seen. The graduate student raised his eyes and looked at everyone, and it happened that Luo Yu and Mengfan also came up, and they were waiting for him to continue with a solemn face.

The graduate student took a sip of wine and frowned: "Yinuo, do you remember Lao Hu?" ”

"Huh?" Yinuo, who was suddenly named, was stunned for a moment, then remembered something, and muttered: "Remember, remember, he didn't rescue him from pulmonary edema, what's wrong?" ”

The researcher nodded and explained to everyone: "Well, he was the first to die because of this rain, do you all have an impression?" Seeing that everyone was hesitant, the graduate student paused, his face was a little pale, and he said word by word: "I saw his body next to the greenhouse." ”

"......" Everyone seemed to be a little stunned, and they didn't react for a while, but Yinuo's eyes widened and he covered his mouth in disbelief.

The graduate student swallowed, his voice trembling a little: "But he died of pulmonary edema, and he should have been in the morgue." ”
