Chapter 58: Pursuit and Escape
It seemed that after some catharsis, the mood calmed down a bit, Thatch glanced at them and said, "Of course, you can also choose to make up for your mistakes, I am a very good person, as long as you take responsibility for your sins and make up for them, I will not bother with you anymore." ”
"There are two choices in front of you, one is to chase them out now and get all those who escaped back, I don't have to worry about you, and I will give you some rewards."
As he said this, Thatch stood with his hands on his hands, his face full of pride, as if proud of his open-mindedness.
"Second, maintain the status quo, let them go, the decision is in your hands, I won't force you, I really won't hold a grudge against you afterwards, really, really won't ......"
His expression was very sincere, and some people who didn't know him might really believe it, but everyone was a human spirit who had been immersed in it for a long time, so they didn't believe the words of this deputy captain at all, but were so shocked that they were covered in a cold sweat, and they didn't even dare to breathe, for fear that he would notice themselves, and they knew that if any action at this time made him dissatisfied, I am afraid that he would have to be stripped of at least a layer of skin.
"So what...... Now it's up to you to decide. Thatch closed his eyes slightly and pouted.
As soon as the words fell, there was an eerie silence around them, and there was not even much sound of breathing, and it was obvious that everyone was holding their breath.
A group of team members, you look at me, I look at you, their eyes are wide and small, and they all see the beads of sweat on each other's foreheads and the violently undulating chest.
"Hey, hey, hey...... Time is running out, hurry up and decide! Thatch looked at his watch and said with a frown.
Finally, a brave tough guy said with beads of sweat on his forehead: "Vice captain...... Belch...... That, I choose the first one. ”
When he said this, he wondered if he had in his brain, or if he was taking drugs, but since he said it, he could only grit his teeth and accept it.
"Oh......" Thatch glanced at him curiously, the corners of his mouth curled in an eerie arc, and his head leaned closer to him.
The tough guy's hands trembled, his throat gurgled and he swallowed a mouthful of spit, his lips trembling.
"You...... Very good. Thatch tapped him on the shoulder.
"Thank you...... Thank you, Vice Captain. He barely managed to squeeze out a smile.
"I'll consider promoting you to team leader." Thatch said in his ear.
Hearing this, the surrounding team members all gasped, what a lucky guy! Fuck, if I knew there were such benefits, I would have said it first......
They all looked at this tough guy differently, some were jealous, some were resentful, but more were overtures. Because, they know that from today onwards, this tough guy like them in the past will be promoted to management, and his subordinates will control a team that can make a lot of money.
"I'm going to ...... too"
"I choose the first ......"
"Follow the Vice-Captain ......"
The man didn't expect such a big pie to suddenly fall from the sky, happiness came so suddenly, that unexpected feeling was like winning the lottery, and his heart was excited.
That's great!
That's great!
"Since you're all like this, let's go now!" Thatch said with a big wave of his hand.
The team members looked sluggish and said that what about the reward? According to their thinking, there must be a reward for the second one, right? Even if the reward is smaller, there will always be one......
But the truth seemed to be a little different from what they imagined, but it was very familiar, and the vice-captain was as stingy as ever.
Alas......
They sighed in unison, glanced at each other, and saw the helplessness in each other's hearts. But the matter has come to this point, and there is nothing to change, if you stand up against it at this time, it is undoubtedly irresponsible for your own life.
"If you can catch it, you can catch it, you have to see people in life, and you have to see corpses in death. I don't care what method you use, I just want you to bring me back the corpse or the person! Do you understand!? Thatch said with a gloomy face.
"Understood." They said in unison.
"Now, immediately, immediately, give me a !!" He waved his hand and said with a loud shout.
"Yes!"
……
"Let's find a place to hide first, it's the time when the darkness is raging, and it's too dangerous to walk at night." Rosa worried.
The four of them were now squatting in the corner of an alley, because the sky had long been occupied by darkness, they did not dare to walk on the streets of the city at all, and could only hide in a temporary resting spot for the time being.
And they weren't too relieved, for fear that a dark shadow would suddenly appear behind or in front of the alley, so that Carl and the other three would spend more energy paying attention.
"Now that it's so dark and we can't walk through the streets, there must be a lot less choice all of a sudden, so we have to look around this area." Kiss thought with her chin propped up.
"Is there any safe place around here?" Carl asked, though he had walked around the neighborhood a few times before the cataclysm, but he was still unfamiliar with it.
"It seems like it's all shopping streets, right? The captain was most familiar with this place, he had been here a lot before the cataclysm. Rosa said.
Constance nodded and smiled, "That's right, before the catastrophe, I had a friend who lived near Lindy Street, and I often came here to visit him, so I'm quite familiar with this place." ”
Carl was happy in his heart, it was much safer to have a guide than not to have one, and he didn't have to risk his life to catch the blind, and he hurriedly said, "Then what are you waiting for?" Let's go! ”
He wanted to get to a safe place as soon as possible, the darkness around him made him uncomfortable, he didn't know why, it seemed like it was only recently, but he didn't want to spend time thinking about something mysterious, and now the first priority was to find a safe place to spend the dangerous night.
You know, those black shadows are not static, and their movements cannot be captured, so I don't know when the black shadows will enter this alley.
"Don't be anxious yet, let's discuss the details of the operation before we go, so that it is safer and more secure." Constance is as steady and conservative as ever.
"Well, okay then."
Carl calmed down, he also understood that there were some things that could not be rushed, otherwise it would be easy for something big to happen.
So let's plan and act......
Street corner.
While Carl and them were discussing, the cannibals also sent more than a dozen people to hunt them down, of course, the efficiency was not high, and they didn't dare to walk around at will at night, there were always some scruples that slowed down their speed.
"Quick, you guys go over here. And you take people, go to that place, and everyone else comes with me! ”
Thatch ordered, but his voice wasn't as irritable as it used to be, obviously he wasn't stupid, he knew what the sound was going to do at night.
