ACT248: Moonset and Starset

Gobi, starry night, moonlight.

The high-walled compound is silent, with lights on several windows, curtains half-hidden, and figures shaking. Security guards were still patrolling the courtyard, the gate was closed and chained, the cold breeze outside the door was deserted, and the long depressed street was like a waterline, keeping the neon flashes out.

Ming Junwei has already slept for a while, the free bedding provided by the internal staff is of good quality, sleeping on the hard bed is quite soft, and the pillow has a faint smell of fiber, which is very clean and comfortable.

"What time is it?" Ming Junwei yawned, if it weren't for the fact that there were still important things to do, he really wanted to sleep for a while.

Hou Xiong, who was in the lower bunk, looked out the window and muttered, "It's almost nine o'clock." "All their personal belongings were handed over, and the watch was naturally not kept, and the exact time is unknown, so we can only guess. The yellow dog was napping at the door, with a litter of cat cubs curled up under his belly, and the tanuki cat was sleeping on Hou Xiong's quilt, breathing steadily, and there was a faint purr.

"When was it delivered?" Ming Junwei rubbed his numb face, lifted it and turned over and got up in one breath, the quilt was too comfortable, most of the people in the car made do during the journey, and the back pain was sore for half a month, and the hard bed was suitable for relieving the fatigue and soreness of the body.

"In the afternoon, I called for dinner by the way, I saw that you slept soundly, so I didn't call you." Hou Xiong sat up cautiously, trying not to wake up the sleeping tanuki cat, got out of bed and moved his muscles, and added: "Also, tomorrow will arrange a physical examination, let's go together." ”

"Oh, it's pretty quick." Ming Junwei nodded, scratched his messy hair, stared at the darkness outside the window for a while, and muttered, "I'm going to go tomorrow...... Then we'll have to act tonight. ”

"Well, have you figured out how to do it?" Hou Xiong's tone was a little uncertain, and he hesitated: "There are still patrols outside, and the gate has been locked." ”

"What about the group during the day?" Ming Junwei jumped out of bed, walked to the door and opened a gap slightly, the night breeze outside the house slipped in along the crack in the door, the yellow dog opened his sleepy eyes, and was quite dissatisfied with Ming Junwei's behavior, snorted twice, and jumped on Hou Xiong's bed with the cat cub in his mouth.

"It's all on the second floor, and in addition to us, there are three rooms with lights on on the first floor, I don't know what they're doing." Hou Xiong didn't sleep in the afternoon, he had been preparing, there was no technical content in keeping an eye on this job, and the patrolmen outside didn't seem to be too wary of them, and more attention was paid to the one hundred and ten people.

"The second floor, it's a bit of a hassle." There was a slight deviation from what I expected, and I thought that those people should be controlled under the nose of the first floor, but I didn't expect to be sent to the second floor. During the day, the internal staff introduced that there is only one staircase passage on the upper and lower floors, and they have a limited range of activities, so they can wander around the yard, but they are forbidden to contact the 100th person, there is no concealment in the yard, and there are lights at the staircase, so it is a little difficult not to alarm the guards.

Hou Xiong pondered for an afternoon, but he didn't understand Ming Junwei's specific plan, there were indeed a lot of people upstairs, but how could they join forces? With just one mouth, they want to move those who have deep fear in their eyes to rebel with them? It's so unrealistic.

"What do you think?" Hou Xiong couldn't help but be curious, and said suspiciously: "The launch site you said is not close, and we are new faces, once there is a little movement here, I estimate that we will not be able to reach the destination at all." ”

"Don't worry, let me think." Ming Junwei raised his hand to interrupt his questioning, touched his coat pocket, and the cigarette was gone, and he couldn't help but feel upset.

Ming Junwei has never been a thoughtful person, and as far as the current situation is concerned, he can only think about the immediate problem first, that is, leaving the compound. As for the chain reaction caused by running out, it is not considered for the time being, but after Hou Xiong's reminder, Ming Junwei also had to start thinking about it. This is no better than the wilderness, there is only one way to advance and retreat, they need a relatively safe time to go to the launch site, at least not in a short period of time, this lonely city is more complicated than imagined, once the whereabouts are exposed, maybe there is no need to go out at all, Ming Junwei feels that the residents of the city will take the initiative to take them down, and then hand them over to the state.

At first, Ming Junwei planned to use the 100 people to cause some chaos, there were many people, and he and Hou Xiong could fish in troubled waters. Ming Junwei once lived in the Gobi long night, and the guys who were tied up with hemp rope during the day definitely did not take the initiative to surrender to Cheng, not surprisingly, it should be similar to the people detained in the underground test site that year, belonging to experimental subjects, or other uses. The enemy of the enemy is the friend, this simple truth can sometimes work, the defense force of the compound is average, as long as you grab a gun, it will definitely cause a small area of chaos.

But the question is, how to incite those people? Also, it is difficult to control the number of people, even if they can poke the stupid dog on the wall, the first reaction of the other party after leaving the compound must be to rush out of the city gate, which is contrary to Ming Junwei's destination, and it is purely self-casting, it is estimated that before the two of them take advantage of the chaos to leave too far, these people will have to be **. The circular trench outside the city gate is not an ornament, devouring the hundred and ten people is like playing.

Therefore, Ming Junwei was not thinking about how to leave the courtyard, but how to let those people stay in the city and continue to cause chaos. Hou Xiong didn't know Ming Junwei's plans, if he knew Ming Junwei's thoughts, he probably had to scold him for being despicable, in order to buy time, he was going to send those people to death.

Ming Junwei frowned, the morale of the duo was a little low, Hou Xiong had no confidence, seeing him like this, he estimated that the purpose of this trip would be ruined.

"Tomorrow morning's check-up... It's too late. Ming Junwei frowned, looked at the moon outside the window, and muttered: "Yaoyao's girl mixed some blood with me, and it is estimated that I can find it out in one test." ”

"What?" Hou Xiong was stunned and didn't understand.

Ming Daxia scratched his head a little, the purpose of the other party's physical examination can be guessed one or two, it must be to eliminate potential hidden dangers, the living corpse blood that Song Yao sent to him has an effect, and he will definitely not be able to escape the other party's relatively sound medical examination system, once he finds out that he is abnormal, he will definitely attract a lot of attention.

"You can say that if you can separate the two of us...... Huh? Right! Ming Junwei muttered a few words to himself, his eyes suddenly lit up, turned his head to look at Hou Xiong, and said in a low voice: "You have been hiding in the city at the beginning?" ”

"What?" Hou Xiong rolled his eyes and wondered, "What are you talking about?" ”

"Ancient city, where did you go after the battle with Song Jiu?" Ming Junwei asked anxiously.

"No, no, no." Hou Xiong's face stiffened, and seeing that he looked serious, not like gossip, he replied: "I was injured at that time, and I thought that there was no hope of survival, so I waited for death on the city wall." Later, I didn't die, and the walking corpses under the city walls were scattered, and I had nowhere to go, so I was going to try my luck in the temple. ”

"So, you hid in the temple all those days?" Ming Junwei raised his eyebrows and asked, "Didn't go out in one step?" ”

"No, they went to the roundabout, there were basically no supplies left in the temple, and I also went out to find food, drink and medicine." Hou Xiong was confused by his question, so dignified, why are you talking about this stubble?

"Later, it rained in the city for a few days, did you get wet?" Ming Junwei's eyes lit up, and an inexplicable look flashed in his eyes.

Hou Xiong was dumbfounded, frowned and thought about it, in the days of the rainstorm, his burns had not yet scabbed, and the continuous rain tossed him enough, and he went out once during the period, as if he had lost the Tallinn well to draw water.

"Drenched." Hou Xiong nodded in response, frowned, and said, "What's wrong?" ”

"That's good, there's a trick." Ming Junwei breathed a long sigh of relief, his face became a little strange, and he said in a low voice: "It's really luck that you didn't die, that rain is not ordinary." ”

"Does it have anything to do with where we are now?" Hou Xiong has been confused, how do you think it's not a good time to chat, why should Ming Junwei bother with this?

Ming Junwei was not in a hurry to explain, he frowned and thought for a while, as if he had made up his mind, got up and looked at the door, and told Hou Xiong to look at the wind, lift the futon by himself, unload the bed board to the ground, break a raised wooden board for a long time, and cut off the long nails used for fixing between the wooden boards.

Hou Xiong looked at his movements in a daze, and asked tentatively, "Use nails as weapons?" ”

"Clever." Ming Junwei squeezed his eyes at him, pressed the nail head on the cement floor and grinded it for a while, and said meaningfully: "I won't hide it from you, what you have to do next, you have to have a clear conscience, if you don't want to, then say it clearly, I'll do it." ”

"What do you mean?" Hou Xiong raised his eyebrows and hesitated: "Want to kill?" ”

"Yes." Ming Junwei's face sank, and he sighed: "And there is more than one, this is the only way I can think of at the moment." ”

"You say, how to do it." Hou Xiong was quite surprised, Ming Junwei's impression on him has not been very good, and the two of them rarely collided with the walking corpse head-on along the way. The only weapon is a cement nail, and you want to kill people with this? More than one?

Ming Junwei blew the nail head dust, got up and opened the back window, and looked up, behind the window was a narrow path, close to the wall, leading to the compound on both sides, the cement wall should be three or four meters higher than the second floor, the wall was smooth and visible, and there was no chance to climb.

Ming Junwei retracted his body and said, "There is no anti-theft net in the window on the second floor, you can climb up from here." After a pause, he raised his hand and threw the cement nail to Hou Xiong, saying, "Neither of us can have a physical examination, I have a living corpse virus in my body, and you are now a carrier of the walking corpse virus." ”

Hou Xiong caught the hot cement nail and was stunned when he heard it: "What? ”

"I just told you, the rain in the city was not ordinary, our doctor tested the rain, and in addition to confirming that it was an acid rain, powdered walking corpse virus particles were also detected in the rain." Ming Junwei said a lot in one breath, and seeing that Hou Xiong's expression was a little confused, he breathed a sigh of relief and explained: "In other words, all the people affected by that rain have been infected by the new walking corpse virus, if you die now, it won't be long before you wake up again." ”

“……”

"Got it?"

"You're saying that even if I'm not injured by a walking corpse, I'll be a corpse when I die?" Hou Xiong was stunned.

"That's right." Ming Junwei nodded.

"What about you? Aren't you also rained? ”

Ming Junwei shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Originally, I was the same, but something went wrong later, and I don't know what I will look like after I die." ”

Hou Xiong opened his mouth, suddenly thought of something, his eyes widened in astonishment, and he stammered: "You, you, are you trying to let me bite those people?" Turn them into walking corpses? ”

"I'm afraid you won't be able to bite your mouth, the walking corpse virus is transmitted through bodily fluids, just in case, you can use a nail to stain it with blood, and then ......" Ming Junwei raised his hand and wiped it around his neck, and the last few words were not spoken.

Hou Xiong was dumbfounded, his back couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and his eyes changed when he looked at Ming Junwei.

"It's not a good thing to say it, if you can't do it, then I'll come." Ming Junwei didn't bother to explain, the current situation is very clear, either strike first or suffer later, it is not a wonderful journey, and there is no time to think about the perfect plan at the moment.

Hou Xiong lowered his head and thought for a while, and sighed: "How to do it?" Just let them infect my bodily fluids? ”

"Also make sure they die, from death to corpse transformation, the time is not easy to grasp, it is now around nine o'clock, before dawn, you and I must leave here."
