ACT 149: Transfer
acT149: The situation of the transfer roundabout is better than expected, at least the surrounding buildings are not as badly damaged as the train station, it looks like the explosion is much smaller, and the radiation is not too large.
Song Yao rushed back to the roundabout as fast as he could, the group of walking corpses was spreading wildly from the streets and alleys, but their movement speed was still hard, Song Yao's desperate rush won precious time, and approached the three-layer fence wall that protected the safety of the roundabout before the walking corpses besieged the city.
The trees between the iron fence and the low wall are burning, and after the acid rain, the once lush green plants have been reduced to withered firewood, and these days the weather has cleared, and after exposure to the sun, it has become the best combustible product.
The open flames generated after the explosion ignited many structures in the roundabout, and the annular canal could only store water, and without human coordination, it could not play a role in fire prevention at all.
The iron fence on one side collapsed, and Song Yao got into it sideways, and forcefully pulled the twisted and broken fence back into place, and it won't take long for the walking corpse to be killed, and it can be blocked for a while.
The vegetable greenhouse in the center of the roundabout has not been restored, the rusty skeleton leaks in the night wind, and the acidic soil is no longer suitable for planting, so it has been used as a temporary cargo storage place for a while.
Song Yao was a little stunned, looked around, although it was messy, no dead or injured people were found, and hurriedly ran into the bar, there was no one inside, even the yellow dog and the cat cub were gone.
"......" Song Yao was in a trance for a moment, and then she was happy in her heart, it seems that the graduate student rushed back in time and had already transferred the personnel!
Song Yao hurriedly ran to the balcony on the second floor to check, and the one facing the balcony was the express hotel used for accommodation, the upper part was basically destroyed, the roof collapsed, and the fire was fierce; The hotel is located on the left and right side of the restaurant, and the hospital is located on the left hand side of the restaurant, all of which suffer from a degree of trauma, especially the large canteen, the antique restaurant has too many wooden structures, and the damage is more serious, and the side hospital in order to make room for the placement of boiler generator sets, just demolished the wall between them, after the combustion collapsed, the spread of the fire went up the trend, and it has been rolled to the laboratory.
After looking around through the thick smoke, Song Yao found the center of the explosion...... The location chosen by the other party for blasting is not in the center of the roundabout, but the building standing proudly behind the KTV!
In order to make the most of the surrounding buildings, Ming Junwei and Xiao Wei deliberately took the time to clean up the other floors of the buildings next to the inner side of the roundabout, no matter whether they were useful or not, at least they would not leave a gap for the walking corpses to come and go.
Later, the population base of the roundabout has been balanced, and the high-rise buildings that have been cleared out have not come in handy, but only serve as a barrier to facilitate Xiao Wei's high-altitude inspections.
Song Yao only reacted at this time, no wonder you can see the fire rising into the sky from far away at the train station, it turns out that the center of the explosion is the high-rise behind the roundabout!
Although Song Yao didn't understand blasting techniques, it was not difficult to guess the other party's intentions from several seriously damaged locations.
Maybe it's because there are people inside the roundabout, so the other party can't place ** inside the building like the train station, but the high-rise buildings in the rear undoubtedly provide convenience, and the other party directly chose to attack from the top of the head.
It is also a blessing in misfortune, after all, the graduate students rushed back in time, although the combat effectiveness of the left-behind department around the island is weak, but the people are not stupid, it is impossible to stand in the center of the roundabout and let the gunpowder fly overhead, although the building damage is serious, the personnel did not cause too many casualties.
In addition to the fires that ignited everywhere, the only thing that frightened people was the business office building behind the KTV.
The explosives burst out of a gap, and it looked like it couldn't support the superstructure, I don't know if it was a psychological effect, I always felt that the behemoth was a little crumbling, and if it completely collapsed and fell down...... The consequences are unimaginable.
After settling down, Song Yao resolutely left the bar, glanced at the brass clock that was still ticking and ticking, and braved the sand and gravel cement that fell from time to time above her head, and went straight to the underground billiard room on the side of the bank storage room.
This basement, as a strategic buffer ground, was once tossed by Xiao Wei, and the walls were specially strengthened in order to facilitate personnel to evacuate under special circumstances.
The inspiration was still plagiarized from the Daliugou side back then, but there were different barren mountains and mountains in the city, and there was no proper engineering equipment, so Xiao Wei's idea of making a hole in the ground could only be stranded.
The gate to enter the basement was not damaged, it seemed that it should have been closed from the inside, Song Yao stood under the bank and took shelter for a while, and when she saw that the falling objects above her head gradually stopped, she hurriedly crossed over the circular canal, got into the basement vent, and looked through the windscreen.
…… The crowd gathered in the basement was silent, the sound above their heads hit everyone's heart, and the air was filled with the smell of panic, even if Chef Niangjia and others had been pacifying, they still couldn't stop the spread of emotions.
Not all the people left behind around the island are unharmed, Song Yao's hopes are very beautiful, but the reality is always so cold.
There are more than a dozen people on several billiard tables, including men and women, who are not known for life and death. Yu An and Hui Hui are following Dr. Zhong to help those injured people bandage one by one, Cook Niangjia is also injured, she has been busy in the cafeteria, when the graduate student came back, she rushed to the crowded accommodation first, and failed to notify Chef Niangjia at the first time, if it wasn't for the acne girl's cleverness, Chef Niangjia must also be buried in the fire.
Chef Niangjia heard the knocking sound outside the wind window, and at first thought it was the sound of falling objects from a high altitude, but after a long time, she realized that it was wrong, and hurriedly asked the graduate student to go over to check, only to realize that it was Song Yao who came back.
The graduate student hurriedly opened the closed safety door, and his excited expression came to an abrupt end.
"Just, just you?" The graduate student was stunned, he didn't see the explosion at the train station, although the sound was violent, but he was busy gathering people at the time, and he didn't have time to check the situation outside.
Song Yao's face was gloomy, and she didn't explain much, she probably glanced at the people in the basement, and the trace of relief in her heart was almost shattered.
Many teams joined around the island, and while the combat effectiveness was improving, the number of non-combatants was also surging, and there were more than 100 people.
And in front of ...... You don't have to count too carefully, just glance at it, and you'll probably have it in your heart. The graduate student saw the look in her eyes, her expression became a little embarrassed, and she said guiltily: "I'm a step slower, many people are still upstairs...... I didn't expect them to use **......"
"I don't blame you." Song Yao comforted softly, the graduate student's face was full of smoke and fire, obviously he also picked up a life from the fire cave, it was not easy to do this step, where could he be harsh.
Fortunately in the misfortune, although there are heavy casualties, in fact, the really important core personnel are basically there.
It may be a bit selfish to say this, but due to the limitations of the situation, they don't have time to estimate everyone, and the life and death of their partners and relatives on the other side of the train station are still uncertain, and they really don't have time to grieve for many unfamiliar deceased.
"What about the others? There seems to be an explosion just now, what's going on? Cook Niangjia hung her arms around her neck, and her long hair was burned away by the flames, and she was also embarrassed.
Song Yao didn't know how to explain, so she could only give a long sigh and briefly talk about the situation over there, her eyes swept over everyone, and stopped on the face of her brother's subordinate.
Jiao Ziqian is the most depressed one in the basement, not to mention anything else, he has been to this basement alone.
Last time because of an injury, this time it is still the same, every time Brother Jiu is in big trouble, as his right-hand man, he is always in the line of fire due to injury, how can he feel at ease.
It's not bad to say it, after all, it's a miracle that he can stay alive, he is not a direct injector of drugs, it is completely Song Jiu who rushed to the hospital when he was sick, and used blood infection to create a nondescript living corpse reserve.
Song Yao and Liu Yan are still in a state of half-understanding of their own situation, not to mention his wild way.
The gunshot wound in the cave caused him a heavy blow, although it was not fatal, but it was impossible to imagine that Song Yao was covered in bruises and killed all over his body.
"How is Brother Jiu?" Jiao Ziqian gritted his teeth and stood up with the help of Yu An, his eyes overflowing with concern.
Song Yao's chest was stuffy for a while, she shook her head with a gloomy face, and said softly, "I don't know yet." After speaking, he paused, and tried his best to squeeze out a smile: "That girl named Ying Doudou asked me to bring you a message." ”
"Huh?" Jiao Ziqian was stunned for a moment, and then his face changed: "She, she..."
"She'll be fine, I'll look for her later." Song Yao didn't have confidence in her heart, Ying Doudou and the others hadn't come to the roundabout yet, even if they successfully escaped from the encirclement of the walking corpses, they must have to fight and retreat, looking for a safe place to hide.
And their current situation cannot be divided into people to find, the future is uncertain, and they can only focus on the current problems first.
"What did she say?" Jiao Ziqian is not stupid, he pressed the strange emotions in his heart, and his eyes were burning.
"She said..."Song Yao remembered the words that the girl said with a shy face but pretending to be calm, thought about it, but still dispelled the idea of polishing on her behalf, and said softly: "I hope you don't forget her too soon." Jiao Ziqian retreated to his seat, silently pondering this sentence with an ignorant expression, and the others no longer bothered him, and they all gathered around Song Yao, waiting for her to come up with an idea.
Everyone can see that the backbone of the camp around the island is Ming Junwei and a few of them, and Song Yao rushed back alone, definitely not to the basement to hide.
"How about Yinuo and Lao Tian?" Dr. Zhong belongs to the key protection object, because of the relationship between Hui Hui, Yu An is naturally very sad, the two girls have a lot of bumps and bumps, but this Dr. Zhong has no scars at all.
Although I don't know what happened exactly, it was he who begged Yinuo and Lao Tian to go out, and the two have not heard from them until now, and the roundabout has suffered another accident...... If something happened to the two of them, Dr. Chung felt that he would be completely to blame.
"It's chaotic right now, and I don't know the exact situation." Song Yao tried to keep calm, and when he saw that everyone was quiet, he said, "There was also an explosion at the train station, and there is no sign of an enemy attack for the time being, but the corpses in the whole city have begun to be agitated." When I came back, I was trying to ascertain the situation at the roundabout, which seems to be ...... I can't stay here for long. ”
"What to do?" Chef Niangjia's heart darkened, and finally everything was on the right track, but now...... Alas.
"Everyone, everyone, bring weapons, go to the storage room and carry the maximum amount of food and water, and follow me." Song Yao glanced at the wounded who had their heads broken and bleeding, frowned and thought about it, gritted his teeth and said, "Those who can move can keep up with the team, and those who can't move forward with the team for the time being...... Stay first, and we'll give you enough weapons and food. The crowd fell silent for a moment, and then there was a loud noise.
No one wants to be left behind, everyone knows that the roundabout has been greatly injured after this battle, and now if he leaves the roundabout, he may not have a chance to come back, the fortifications around the island are very strong, but Song Yao decided to give up here, obviously, if you don't follow the team, the chance of survival is slim.
"Where to go?" The graduate student ignored the noisy crowd, frowned and asked in a low voice, "There are so many people, we don't have a car yet, so why don't we go out of the city directly?" The graduate student asked Song Yao, and the others also turned their inquiring eyes, Song Yao was speechless, opened her mouth, but did not make a sound.
She didn't know where to go, Lu Qian was still at the crossroads, Luo Yu was still at the train station, the city was in chaos, and there was no temporary shelter reserved for the roundabout.
At this moment, there were several more coherent taps on the side of the windshield. Several graduate students' eyes lit up and they were pleasantly surprised: "Everyone is back?" Without waiting for Song Yao to speak, the acne girl had already hurriedly ran over and opened the closed door.
Outside the door, the night wind was still howling, the brick floor slabs were falling and smashing, the fire was dancing, and it was desolate and desolate.
A figure stood outside, cloaked, lifted by the fierce wind. The acne girl's surprised expression froze on her face, and she immediately let out a frightened scream, everyone was like a big enemy, Song Yao, Yu An and others hurriedly stepped forward, swords and guns pointed at each other.
After a moment of silence, the cloaked man slowly spoke, his voice low and hoarse, as if his vocal cords had been frozen for thousands of years.
"I can take you guys to a safe place...... Just give me one more look at Effie. ”...
