Chapter 36 Phantom Killing
"Jiajia is gone!" Zou Qiqi's exclamation came from inside.
With a "bang", Zhao Guangcheng bounced up from the bench where he was lying, fell to the ground, and hit his head on the back of the chair as he got up. Ignoring the pain in his head, Zhao Guangcheng rushed into the room where Luo Jia slept, the bed was empty, Luo Jia's backpack was gone, and Zou Qiqi was sweating profusely on the side.
The sound also alarmed the others outside, and everyone gathered into the room inside.
"When I woke up in the morning, I saw that Jiajia was not in bed, and I thought she had gone to the bathroom. After a long time, I didn't see anyone back, so I went to the bathroom to take a look, and no one was there. Zou Qiqi told Zhao Guangcheng about the situation in the morning, and tears were about to flow.
"Let's look around, Jiajia shouldn't go far", Qiao Xingyu said, and everyone scattered to find it.
Zhao Guangcheng searched every room and corner hard, his eyes were bloodshot because of his anxiety, from under the bed in the room to the car outside, Zhao Guangcheng was looking for it over and over again. At this moment, how he wished that Luo Jia would suddenly jump out of somewhere to surprise her, but the surprise did not appear.
Everyone gathered in front of the church building, everyone found nothing, and all the houses in the entire church area were rummaged through, and Luo Jia was not found.
"No news is not the worst news," Qiao Xingyu comforted.
Zhao Guangcheng raised his head and looked out of the gate, and suddenly had an idea in his heart: "Is Jiajia going out?" ”
The closed iron door stood there intact, Zhao Guangcheng shook his head, and was about to deny his idea, when suddenly out of the corner of his eye saw something hanging on the top of the iron door.
Zhao Guangcheng ran over, climbed up the iron gate and took the thing down.
The thing in his hand was a strip of cloth, and Zhao Guangcheng recognized the cloth of this color.
"It's on Jiajia's clothes", Zhao Guangcheng shouted excitedly, and handed the strip of cloth in his hand to the others for everyone to see.
"Jiajia ran out .....", Qiao Xingyu sighed in his heart.
Zhao Guangcheng was going out to find Luo Jia, Qiao Xingyu was not at ease, and planned to accompany Zhao Guangcheng to go together. Zou Qiqi felt that she was also very responsible for failing to stop Luo Jia's departure in time, so she strongly asked to go out together. Qiao Xingyu had no choice but to take Zou Qiqi with him, and when he left, he also explained that the monkey, Cao Shengli and Lao Huan stayed in the church, and Luo Jia might also run back by himself.
Qiao Xingyu and the three of them climbed over the iron door together and came outside. Midsummer Road was still the same as when they came, Qiao Xingyu and Zhao Guangcheng turned to Yindong Road, and the three of them carefully avoided the zombies on the road.
Qiao Xingyu checked the parked car along the road, found a Ling Zhi that had no faults, and the three of them sat on it. It's very dangerous to look for someone outside purely on foot, especially with a girl like Zou Qiqi. The sound of the car starting, alarmed several zombies nearby, Qiao Xingyu drove the car to crash into the zombies in front of him, and drove towards Zhangdong Road, he felt that Luo Jia should be in that direction, because at dinner yesterday, it was Luo Jia who proposed to go to Hualian to save people.
Cao Shengli and Lao Huan returned to the catechumenate classroom, and the monkey was still outside alone, pacing and thinking with his head down. He never understood the motive for Luo Jia's sudden departure, although the girl shouted to save people, but the monkey didn't believe that she had the courage to take risks alone.
A light from a building behind the wall in the distance was keenly captured by the corner of the monkey's eye.
"It's the light reflected from the glass," the monkey was shocked, and continued to walk in circles as if he was not aware of it, but his eyes were looking for an opportunity to observe the area where the light was coming from.
There were people there, and a figure quickly disappeared into the afterglow of the monkey's eyes, and the monkey did not dare to turn his head to look, for fear that the other party would notice that he had exposed his whereabouts.
"Lao Cao, Lao Huan, I'm leaving the meeting, please here." The monkey returned to the classroom and said to Cao Shengli and Lao Huan.
"Brother, where are you going?" Cao Shengli asked puzzled, thinking that the monkey was also going out to find Luo Jia.
"The little girl was gone to look for it, why did you run out", Lao Huan also persuaded him.
"Qiao Xingyu, if they come back, you tell them that I will come back soon." The monkey didn't have time to explain to Cao Shengli and Lao Huan, so he left in a hurry.
Out of the classroom, the monkey looked around, but found no suspicious traces. However, the monkey firmly believed that he was definitely not dazzled just now, and that this place was being watched by unknown people. This discovery just further confirmed the judgment of other people nearby, but Luo Jia's sudden departure in the morning caused the monkey to not have time to tell Qiao Xingyu this.
Among the three people left behind now, Lao Huan has a head injury, and Cao Shengli is a person with big nerves, so he can only dig out the traces of this group of people by himself if he thinks about it. There is another reason why the monkey is very nervous, that is, this group must have bad intentions, if it was goodwill, they should have shown their faces a long time ago, instead of lurking in the shadows and watching themselves like this.
This feeling reminds the monkey of a venomous snake in the jungle.
The monkey ran towards the building where the light was shining behind the previous wall, and climbed over the wall with the help of piles of debris under the wall. On the other side of the fence is an industrial park, where monkeys try to hide themselves with the help of greenery and the cover of vehicles.
On the left is a small river more than ten meters wide, the small bridge on the river is outside the other side of the church area, the river water is very muddy, basically the water quality of the rivers in the big cities of the country is very poor. The monkey descended the embankment to the river and approached Building 1 in the park.
The monkey hadn't seen a zombie in the park yet, which made him very strange. The door of Building 1 was open, and the monkey hesitated for a moment before deciding to go in and take a look.
A breeze swept through the air, taking away a hint of summer dryness, and the monkey wiped the sweat from his face and walked into the building.
Building 1 is a T-shaped building, with only six floors, which is not too high, and judging from the decoration and items inside, it should be the office location of several scientific and technological innovation companies. The monkey saw the corpses of zombies and human remains in the corridor, and his nervous heart was raised to his throat.
On either side of the hallway were the glass doors of the office room, the glass on which had shattered and fallen to the ground, only the doorknob was still attached to the wall, leaving it alone. The monkey looked inside, and the neatly arranged desks were now staggering, and the computer monitors on the desks fell to the table, and some of them fell, falling into pieces on the ground. The threads of the mouse and keyboard were messily entangled, the chairs were crammed into a heap, and several pots of pothos on the table had dried up, and the withered yellow leaves had fallen on the table.
The monkey continued to walk forward, carefully observing each room.
The staircase on the second floor appeared in front, and the light in the stairwell was not very good, and I don't know if the light in the stairway was broken. The monkey puffed himself up and walked up the stairs, the journey was relatively smooth, the layout of the second floor was very similar to the difference between the first floor, the only difference was that there were a few more meeting rooms.
The monkey saw a very high-end alien laptop in a conference room, and in addition to its cool appearance, this brand of computer also has a configuration that is not inferior to that of a desktop. As an Internet addict youth, Monkey has fantasized countless times about having such a computer, and this fantasy always makes his blood boil.
The monkey walked up to the laptop and rubbed his fingers on it, feeling the texture of the high-quality material, which made the monkey a little intoxicated.
For a moment, the monkey even felt the urge to pick up the computer and take it away.
Coming back to his senses, the monkey gave up his unrealistic plan, reluctantly took his fingers away from the computer, and the monkey turned around and walked out of the conference room.
