Chapter 55: Entering the Sanctuary
His thoughts gradually turned, and Captain Chen looked at the stinking old and weak women and children behind him, like walking corpses, and fell into a speechlessness.
Even if that mysterious man held off the tide of beasts, how long would he be able to hold out?
But these are no longer within the scope of his decision.
All he had to do was to hold on to this line of defense until he died in battle.
"Captain! Look over there! At this moment, a guard suddenly looked outside the cordon, picked up the 95 assault rifle in his hand, and stood on guard.
"Alert!" Captain Chen shouted, and the team members picked up their guns one after another, moving quickly, leaning over to look outside the cordon.
"Puppy, look what's it!"
"Yes!" The team member, called the puppy, pulled up a pair of binoculars on his chest and looked at the black dots that appeared in the distance.
"Report to the captain! It's a team, seven adults, two kids! ”
Nine people? Captain Chen was thoughtful, he had seen people who had gone out of the shelter, but who could return to the shelter safely, he really hadn't seen it.
Because he is well aware of the dangers outside the shelter, not only mutated creatures roaming, but also those - cannibals.
He'd seen cannibals, and as long as they were cannibals, he thought he could see them at a glance.
Because the lust for flesh and blood in the eyes of cannibals will make you shudder.
There used to be cannibals who wanted to enter the shelter, but they were found out and directly beaten into a sieve, and then there were very few cannibals who wanted to blend in.
"Cannibals?" Lei Zi looked at Captain Chen and asked in a low voice.
"No way, there won't be children in the cannibals!" The puppy immediately retorted.
"Shut up, we'll find out later!" Captain Chen whispered to stop the quarrel between the two.
As the black dot approached, the guard team of the cordon finally saw the face of the pedestrian clearly.
Qiu Ye looked at the defense line stacked by cars in front of him, and sighed with some emotion.
Eguchi City Center Shelter has finally arrived!
Half an hour's drive before the end of the world, they walked for five days, and this was with the help of the Lizard King.
"Hands up!" Just when Qiu Ye and the others fell into remembrance, a loud shout sounded, and they saw a middle-aged man in a tattered police uniform with a dark face suddenly appear, and there were six young people beside him holding the same Type 95 assault rifle.
Qiu Ye looked at the muzzle of the black hole and felt a strong sense of threat, and the thousand poisonous dagger in his hand was subconsciously clenched, like a cheetah, waiting for an opportunity to move.
Although his speed is fast, it has not yet reached the point where it is faster than a bullet, if he gives a strafing shot, no matter how fast Qiu Ye is, as long as he hits one, he will have to kneel.
Glancing at the fat man and the others behind him, Qiu Ye inserted the Thousand Poison Dagger into the scabbard and raised his hands.
Seeing Qiu Ye like this, the fat man and the others also gave up resistance and raised their hands.
Captain Chen also let out a long breath when he saw Qiu Ye and the others give up resistance.
Qiu Ye and the others had ruddy faces, but they were not ruddy like cannibals, but very normal ruddy, and their eyes were clear, obviously not cannibals.
Coupled with the quaint weapons in the hands of Qiu Ye and the others, especially the huge shield in the fat man's hand, Captain Chen couldn't help but be worried when he saw it, especially when the fat man put down the shield and the ground was directly cracked with dense cracks.
"Who are you? What are you doing here? Although Qiu Ye and the others put down their weapons, Captain Chen didn't dare to relax for a moment, especially when he looked at the black and white lizard on Qiu Ye's shoulder, he actually had a sense of déjà vu facing those three creatures that night when the beast tide struck.
This team is not an ordinary person, this is Captain Chen's final judgment.
"Put down your guns." Captain Chen waved his hand, and when Lei Zi saw this scene, he immediately became anxious and said loudly.
"Captain! We don't know if they're cannibals yet, and we don't know who they are! When the rock lizard king on Qiu Ye's shoulder heard Lei Zi's words, his vertical pupils suddenly looked in the direction of Captain Chen, and he was full of indifference.
"I said put the gun down!" Captain Chen yelled directly, directly startling the team members behind him, they had never seen the captain lose his temper so much, so they put down the snatch one after another.
Captain Chen's face was covered with sweat at this time, his breathing was short, and his pupils were a little dilated, as if he had seen something terrifying.
Qiu Ye looked at the appearance of the guard captain and felt a little strange, but he didn't say anything, just waited for the next step from the guard captain.
Captain Chen adjusted his breathing, then climbed down the high wall formed by the car, opened a secret passage below, and walked in front of Qiu Ye.
The fat man and the others watched the captain of the garrison come over with vigilant eyes, as long as the person moved a little, they would react quickly and do something unavoidable.
"My name is Chen Liusheng, a squad leader in the Jiangkou City Garrison District, in charge of this cordon, I don't know who you are, and why are you here?" Chen Liusheng asked cautiously, his eyes glancing at the rock lizard king on Qiu Ye's shoulder from time to time, but the rock lizard king didn't have much interest in Chen Liusheng, lazily lying on Qiu Ye's shoulder, squinting his eyes, as if he was asleep.
"My name is Qiu Ye, and we are also from Jiangkou City, but we were not in Jiangkou City when the disaster happened, and now we are back and want to enter the shelter to seek refuge." There are two reasons why Qiu Ye chose to conceal his true purpose for entering Eguchi City.
On the one hand, because he wants to keep a low profile as much as possible, it is more convenient to do so. The second is that he can't say that I want to see the person in charge of your garrison area, Qiu Ye thinks that he doesn't have such a big face.
So the best way to do that right now is to go into the shelter and then look for opportunities.
Hearing Qiu Ye's words, Chen Liusheng immediately scolded his mother directly in his heart.
Who to bluff? You're all strong, and the weapons in your hands aren't for bluffing, plus that black and white lizard, and you still need to seek refuge in a shelter?
But in this case, Chen Liusheng is just saying it in his heart, as long as he is not a cannibal, anyone who wants to enter can do it.
And he had a faint feeling that if the group of people in front of him entered, the shelter might change?
Stretching out his right hand, hanging in mid-air, Chen Liusheng said, "Welcome home." ”
Qiu Ye was suddenly stunned, and then an indescribable feeling surged in his heart, and he stretched out his right hand and held the dark palm.
The palms are rough and powerful, and the thick cocoons on the palms are the marks left by the passage of time.
"Good work." Qiu Ye looked at that tired face and felt something.
Chen Liusheng, who heard this, was as strong as him, and he couldn't help but have red eyes for a while.
These days, has anyone ever asked them if they are hard? Who cares about them?
They are like the outcasts, the forgotten, but they are still here.
But there is still an affirmation and a comfort in my heart.
Qiu Ye's words were insignificant, but they moistened their dry hearts.
Even Lei Zi and the others behind him had red eyes and tears sliding down.
The pain can't make them shed a single tear, but a simple sentence of hard work can make these iron-clad men shed tears.
The fat man and others were behind him, looking at these thin figures, and he felt uncomfortable for a while.
Chen Liusheng wiped his eyes, looked at Qiu Ye and the others with his black and white eyes, and suddenly grinned, revealing a mouthful of big white teeth.
"Let's go, it's not safe outside, let's go to the shelter!"
Qiu Ye and the others went through the hidden passage and came to the shelter, and the first thing they saw was a large number of old and weak women and children lying on the side of the street, all of them skinny and gloomy eyes.
Seeing the arrival of Qiu Ye and the others, or seeing the backpack behind Akiba and the others, some people stood up, their eyes were full of longing, and they suddenly trembled and walked towards Qiu Ye and the others.
"Big brother, I can accompany you for one night, just a small piece of bread." It was from the mouth of a skinny middle-aged woman.
"Give me something to eat, and let me do anything!" A man grabbed Qiu Ye's trouser legs, knelt on the ground, and looked at Qiu Ye with hopeful eyes.
Several children with skeleton-like bodies walked over, grabbed the pants of Li Jing and the others, and looked at them with blank eyes.
Due to malnutrition, the heads of those children appeared to be particularly large, and a sad feeling came to the hearts of Li Jing and others.
