"Thank you!" Xiao Lin said suddenly.

"Thanks for what?"

"I was almost desperate this afternoon, I didn't expect you to come to my rescue."

I remembered that she had run away alone, so I sneered, "I wonder if I'll ever get a chance to say 'thank you'." ”

Xiao Lin said, "What, you don't seem to be happy when you hear your tone?" ”

"In the factory in the morning, how can you not help me escape over the wall?" Since she mentioned it, I told what I was worried about: "I used to watch a TV series called "Band of Brothers", which tells the story of American paratroopers in World War II. What impressed me the most was the paratroopers parachuting behind enemy lines, surrounded by enemies, and they had to stay together more closely than the rest of the troops in order to survive! Now the situation of the two of us is like two paratroopers, or even inferior to them. They are all thousands of sorties, and even if they lose the battle and are captured, they will not necessarily die, and we don't even have a chance to be captured! Now you can only rely on me, and I can only rely on you, and only by helping each other as much as possible can we have a chance to live. ”

"Who would have thought that you were so stupid that you couldn't even climb over such a low wall!" Xiao Lin said: "After I turned over, I didn't see you come out, so I realized that you couldn't jump, and I climbed over the wall to save you, but by then you had already escaped into the restaurant!" There were also zombies outside the wall, and I couldn't stay long, so I had to flee. ”

I thought about it, what Xiao Lin said was not unreasonable, since she knew that I had escaped into the restaurant, it meant that what she said was true, and the anger in her heart suddenly calmed down slightly, and said: "So that's the case, then I misunderstood you, thank you!" ”

"Thank me for what? I couldn't save you. ”

"As long as you have this heart, I should thank you!" I say.

Xiao Lin asked me how I escaped, and I told her exactly what happened in the factory today. Xiao Lin also told me what happened after she jumped out of the wall: it turned out that Xiao Lin encountered zombies as soon as she jumped out of the wall, and there were a lot of them, so she could only fight and walk. At noon, I came across the black skeleton that had been smashed by me in the lower half. That black skeleton was very clever, and he actually fought with Xiao Lin, and other ordinary zombies took advantage of the fire to rob and constantly consume Xiao Lin's ammunition. The sniper rifle ran out of bullets and threw it away. Later, due to too much physical exertion, the bag was also thrown away, and only the pistol remained. The black skeleton didn't dare to press too hard, so Xiao Lin looked for an opportunity to climb the telephone pole, first, to rest for a while, and second, to wait for the black skeleton to come under the telephone pole to kill it, and then deal with ordinary zombies. Unexpectedly, the black skeleton was not fooled, but just waited quietly in the distance. At this time, there were more and more ordinary zombies below, and when I was anxious, I drove up.

At the end, Xiao Lin said: "You are right, now the situation of the two of us is like two paratroopers, and the only way to survive is to help each other." You saved me once today, and I swear: if you are in danger in the future, I will do my best to save you! ”

Hearing Xiao Lin say this, my heart swelled with blood and said, "I also swear that I will do my best to save you in case of danger." The road ahead is dangerous, but as long as the two of us work together, we will definitely reach the safe zone! ”

"You seem to have a lot of confidence."

"Of course, confidence is the foundation of anything."

"You used to say you were an orphan, what's the matter? What about your parents? Xiao Lin suddenly changed the subject.

My heart was heavy: "My father was a martyr who died when I was five years old, and the army buried him in the cemetery. As for how he died, I don't know, but when I came up, I only said to my mother, 'Confidential'. ”

"And what about your mother, I remember you said she was a judge?" Xiao Lin then asked.

"Yes, when I was just starting my freshman year of high school, she was diagnosed with liver cancer and passed away last year!"

"At that time, she knew how she reacted when she was sick, was she worried about you? My child is not yet an adult, but he was found to be terminally ill! For some reason, Xiao Lin's tone faintly revealed a sadness, as if it was her mother who was terminally ill, and this tone sounded to me a sense of sympathy, which invisibly narrowed the distance between us.

I don't want to complain everywhere like Xianglin's sister-in-law, so I never told others about the scene when my mother died, and today I just vomited: "No, my mother doesn't have time to suffer!" That's when doctors told her that she only had one more year to live! She took me home from school the same day, and from then until she died, I never went to school again. She wanted to pass on all her knowledge to me within a year. I was given a self-study exam and ordered me to get a diploma in law within a year. ”

"You did it?"

"Yes, I did! During that time, my mother was not ordinarily strict with me, a hundred times stricter than the school teacher, and every day before dawn she would wake me up to memorize my textbook, and I could not sleep until late at night. She said, 'Be sure to see my college diploma before you die.'" Seeing her being tormented by her illness, I had no second choice but to do what she told me. A year later, I graduated from junior college. My mom was still desperately persevering, she wouldn't even let me breathe, and then enrolled me in my undergraduate! She continued to urge me harshly, and it wasn't until another year later, when I got my undergraduate diploma, that she closed her eyes. The doctor said she would only live for a year at most, but she lived for two years! ”

"This is the power of motherly love!" Xiao Lin muttered: "I really envy you, you have such a good mother!" ”

I was stunned: "What, your mother treats you badly?" ”

Xiao Lin didn't answer my words, but said, "I can't see that you have graduated from college and are still studying law." ”

I said lightly: "Originally, I was quite proud, especially when I returned to school, my original classmates had just started their third year of high school, but since I met you, my self-confidence has been hit at all." You can do anything, but I can't do anything! Who did you learn all these skills from? ”

"What are you doing back to school?" Xiao Lin still didn't answer my question.

"Before she died, she only did one thing: she begged the court leaders to arrange a position for me in the court. Who can bear to refuse a mother who is about to die? The court leaders immediately agreed, and my mother died that night! I was only 17 years old at the time, and the court leader told me that because I was not yet an adult, it was inconvenient to place me in the court for the time being, and asked me to wait for a year. I said yes, I wanted to go back to school to learn some basics, and the court leaders agreed. I was placed in the review class of my old high school to study in my third year of high school. Then the virus broke out, and here I am! "I didn't tell Xiao Lin about Tang Rui, in fact, I asked to go back to school to study largely because I wanted to see Tang Rui again. Now it seems that it was a huge mistake, if I hadn't asked to go back to my original school and didn't see Tang Rui again, those bad things wouldn't have happened in the future!

"This is the mother, who is still thinking about her children before she dies!" Xiao Lin sighed.

I said, "Don't just talk about me, talk about you." Where did you get your training from? ”

Xiao Lin yawned and said, "I'm tired, let's talk about it tomorrow!" ”

"It's fine." I wasn't at ease with the zombies, so I got up and looked outside again before lying down. This was the end of the first formal chat with Xiao Lin, and I continued to toss and turn, falling asleep very late.

When I woke up the next day, it was already dawn, and the first thing I did when I got up was to lift the curtain and secretly look outside: the zombies on the highway were densely packed, like a giant python entrenched on the highway and moving slowly, with no head and tail. The width of this giant python is also very amazing, six lanes of a national highway can no longer accommodate it, and some zombies have been squeezed into the ditches on both sides of the road. The zombies kept roaring as they marched, and it sounded like a sound from afar, as if they were shouting: "Hungry ————" I shivered, shouting something bad, not shouting this word. Hey? I could hear the sound clearly, I rubbed my ears, and the "buzzing" sound inside was gone, and it seemed that my ears were already healed.

My scalp tingles when I look at so many zombies, and if they are discovered, they will only take a few seconds to save us. Suddenly, I noticed something not very good: there were more than a dozen zombies standing in the doorway, and they were holding on to the fence-like iron gate and looking inside. My heart tightened———— could it be that they perceived that we were hiding here? Fortunately, the other zombies were not affected by them and were still slowly moving westward. These dozen zombies can't open the door, so they can't make any climate, but it's hard to say if there are more.

The sofa opposite is empty, Xiao Lin has disappeared, this little **** won't escape by himself while I'm sleeping, right? Although she said last night that she would rely on each other, it doesn't mean that she really thinks so. I saw that the backpack was still on the coffee table, and I was busy untying the rope in my left hand, and when I opened the bag, I saw that there was no shortage of magazines inside, so I was relieved.

The ears are fine, but the body is not good at all, and it still hurts when I move, after all, I have vomited blood, and I can't expect it to be good. I didn't dare to exercise vigorously, so I slowly walked to the corridor by holding on to the wall. I didn't see Xiao Lin, the door was locked from the inside, Xiao Lin didn't go out, just in a room in the building. I didn't dare to shout, so I had to carry a pistol and search room by room.

The second floor is a courtroom, empty. I came to the stairs and was thinking about whether to go down or up to the third floor, when I saw Xiao Lin poking her head out on the first floor and beckoning to me. I cautiously walked downstairs holding on to the handrail.

Xiao Lin is much better than yesterday, although she still limps when she walks, she doesn't have to hold on to the club. I followed Xiao Lin into a dormitory, which was simply furnished, although not luxurious, but very thoughtful———— air conditioning, computer, desk, single bed, closet, very thoughtful, fully reflected the humanity.

"Here's what I collected." Xiao Lin pointed to a large cardboard box on the ground, which was full of food: instant noodles, ham, canned food, luncheon meat. I wondered: how can there be so much food? Then I thought that it seemed that this place was far away from the city, and life was very inconvenient, so the court staff prepared a lot of food! There are also all kinds of liquors neatly placed in the closet: liquor, beer, wine, champagne. For the past month, I have been eating biscuits and beef soaked in butter every day, and I can't help but jump my index finger when I see these things.

There are pots and pans here, but there is no stove. These judges used to use induction cookers, and there was no electricity for nothing! He sighed, "If only there was a stove!" "I haven't been able to eat hot food for a month, and now a bowl of instant noodles is a rare delicacy for me.

Xiao Lin said: "There are tools here, and it is not difficult to make a simple stove; and wood and paper, which can boil water. Just a little fire will smoke, zombies will see it, just a little bit! ”

When it comes to zombies, I say, "I saw just now that a few zombies were standing at the door and didn't leave, as if they had found us, did you see it?" ”

"I saw it, but I can't help it, if I kill them, the others will see it!" Xiao Lin said helplessly: "Fortunately, they won't be able to come in for a while!" ”

"How did you say they found us?" I asked.

"I don't know." Xiao Lin said: "Smell with your nose? Have a sixth sense? It doesn't matter. ”

"These zombies are so stupid, they can't even find them when we hide here!" As I spoke, I thought of another question: "The outpost is also far from the road, why were the zombies able to find us at that time?" ”

Xiao Lin replied: "Maybe it smells of blood!" You don't remember? The three men who were in the car with me at the beginning died outside the outpost. The zombies smelled the blood they left behind, so they came to the outpost! ”

"Probably!" After a while, I said, "There are a lot of zombies in this group, I don't know if I can get rid of them today!" ”

"yes, wait! It doesn't matter if we can't finish today, we're all injured anyway, and it's not a bad thing to raise a baby here! Xiao Lin said as she handed me instant noodles and ham, and I hurriedly reached out to take them. Since saving Xiao Lin's life yesterday, her attitude towards me has been much better, and when she saw that she didn't mean to eat, she asked, "Why don't you eat?" ”

"I've already eaten it." Xiao Lin replied, and then asked, "Do you drink?" ”

I was shocked, remembered the mistake I made a month ago after drinking, shook my head and said, "I don't know how to drink, is there mineral water?" ”

Xiao Lin took out a bottle of mineral water from the box and handed it to me, while she opened the champagne, poured it into the wine glass and took a sip: "Good news for you, I found a car." ”

"Where?" I asked hurriedly.

Xiao Lin pointed to the back of the building: "It's there." ”

I took my food and walked to the corridor and looked to the back of the building, and sure enough, I saw a court van parked there, which could seat a dozen people, much more than the Wuling we left in the outpost, and if we drove this car back, we could take everything in the outpost with us. And the car looks very sturdy.

Xiao Lin said: "I haven't looked for it up to the third floor, after you finish eating in a while, we'll go upstairs to find it together to see if there is anything that can be used." I nodded in agreement.

After breakfast, we went to the third floor together, searched the rooms one by one, I didn't know what could be used, what couldn't, I saw that there was a laptop there and wanted to take it and was scolded back by Xiao Lin. This kind of thing doesn't work at all, I haven't transitioned from the old world yet. Xiao Lin found a lot: lighters, magnifying glasses, knives, lunch boxes, needlework...... Everything has its own use, Xiao Lin explained to me as she searched.

Suddenly, Xiao Lin screamed, which startled me, and I thought it was a zombie coming. When he turned around, he saw Xiao Lin holding a radio in his hand.

"Isn't it just a radio, what are you nervous about?" I asked curiously.

Xiao Lin didn't answer, or she didn't hear me at all, so she carefully put the radio on the desk and pressed the listen button with a "click". I was nervous when I received the news from outside, and I hurriedly stepped forward and stared at the little black box.

The most ordinary "rustling" sound came out of the radio, Xiao Lin nervously rotated the channel knob, and I secretly prayed: Speak quickly! Say it!

Suddenly the "rustle" stopped, and a solemn voice came from inside: "Compatriots, ......"
