Chapter 24: The Darkness Bounds

The rest of the night everyone slept quietly, and even the small action of turning around was avoided, especially Carl, who hadn't slept well for a long time because of the previous tension.

However, today he finally got what he wanted, because he was trapped in the stronghold for a long time, he was very stressed physically and mentally, and his body was exhausted, so it was natural to sleep like a dead pig.

In this oppressive atmosphere, everyone ushered in the second day of the Kuroshio.

Karl woke up from his sleep, startled by the dark environment in front of him, and couldn't help but say, "it! You can't fall into any dreams again, do you? ”

Just as he was in doubt, Carl heard someone next to him calling out to him, and it was Constan.

"Boy, don't look, it's already flooded outside by the Black Tide, and now the window is full of black fog made of those bugs. By the way, don't open the curtains, or we'll all die. He reminded.

Karl nodded as if he didn't understand, looked at Constance with a puzzled look, and asked, "Huh?" How did you take a shower today? ”

"What bath is not bathed?" Constantin scolded, "I ...... I just didn't take a shower to save water. ”

"How's the situation going out there now?" Karl asked, changing the subject.

"Outside?" Constance was stunned, then reacted and said, "Who is going to lift the curtains?" The last time the curtain was lifted, the black fog had risen to the sixteenth floor, less than two floors away from our place, and we don't know what happened next. He said.

"Forget it then...... Carl sighed. Since there's no way to find out what's going on out there, let it be.

"Hello!" Carl sneezed violently, and it turned out that living in the dark for a long time was not very harmful to the human body. That is, after a little more than a day, he found that he had a little cold symptoms, which made him a little depressed.

Karl wiped the snot off his face with a tissue and muttered, "I'd better keep exercising." ”

……

The days when the location Kuroshio was raging were indeed a bitter day for everyone, which meant that the survivors could only sit in the stronghold and chat and fart, but there would be a moment when they got bored, and because of the Kuroshio outside, they would be under great stress physically and mentally.

Using some communicators became the quickest way for survivors to exchange information. Although people in the city can't get in touch with people outside, it doesn't mean that the connection in the city is broken, which is also a lucky place. Moreover, communication equipment is not in short supply like other materials, but it is abundant.

Constance sat in a place in the living room, smoking nothing, snorting clouds, and for a moment the air in the living room was a little cloudy, but then a voice pulled him out of this illusory paradise.

"Hello? Is it Constan? I've got something to look for you. The walkie-talkie on the bench suddenly rang, causing Konstein to open his closed eyes, and after extinguishing the cigarette butt in the ashtray, he picked up the walkie-talkie and spoke back to the man opposite.

"It's me. Angus, you know what? I can smell your stinky fart from such a distance. Constance grinned sarcastically without hesitation.

As soon as the words fell, there were a few "haha" cheerful laughter on the other end of the machine, and after a long time, the walkie-talkie sounded again, "Ahem...... Give me some face, okay? There were a few young people next to me. ”

Constance was so happy that he almost hit his head on the table, and then said, "Haha...... Okay, okay, don't talk about you, don't talk about you. By the way, do you have anything to do with me? A heavy look. ”

The other end of the walkie-talkie coughed a few times, and said slowly: "That's the case, after the Kuroshio passes, are you interested in bringing your people over to collect supplies for a medium-sized shopping mall with me?" With so many partners, I can trust you. ”

"Wow, I'm really flattered!" Constance pretended to exclaim.

"Ahem...... So are you interested? After all, a medium-sized shopping mall has a lot of supplies, as long as you catch some, it will be enough for a few months. As if to add to his persuasion, he added, "The danger of a medium-sized mall is very low for us old birds, isn't it?" At most, it is just a matter of distraction to take care of the newcomer, and after success, the newcomer can be regarded as a person who has seen the world. ”

"It's good for everybody, so why wouldn't we?"

With that, the other end of the walkie-talkie stopped, as if waiting for Constan's response.

"......" Constance narrowed his eyes, Angus is his old friend, there is no problem in terms of trust, what makes him hesitate is the safety issue, he has paid the life of a member of the group for entering a large shopping mall before, and he has some psychological shadows for the shopping mall.

Although Angus and he agreed to go to a medium-sized mall, there are also many variables, and as a team leader, he needs to think about the perspective of the whole team.

Thinking of this, he remembered that there didn't seem to be much food in the base, and now that there was one more person, he had to replan the future development direction.

However, the first thing to solve is the problem of food, and although medium-sized shopping malls do not have as many types of materials as large shopping malls, they are not too different, and the more important problem is that medium-sized shopping malls are less dangerous than large shopping malls.

Don't look at the food in the stronghold, there are all kinds of materials that seem to be quite a lot, but in fact, they are only consumed in two or three days, and people will always feel that they don't use much, but in fact, it is far beyond your imagination.

"Well, Angus, I agree to your invitation, I don't know where this time is?" Constance said into the intercom.

"I'll take a look at the map first, you wait a minute."

"Hmm." Constance sat and waited, about to take a cigarette before speaking, when the walkie-talkie rang again.

He wanted to smash it immediately, but he held back.

"Hey, are you there?"

"Yes."

"The location of this medium-sized mall seems to be right down Lindy Street." The walkie-talkie hissed.

"'Oh? Is it over there? ”

"Hey...... Isn't it a surprise? Raul's old boy lived in the neighborhood before the disaster. ”

"But he's dead......," Constance said.

"It's a pity, that kid's mind is bigger and more flexible, and if he survives, he will definitely be an excellent survivor. It's just that he turned off the lights and went to bed that night, so he disappeared like everyone else," said the walkie-talkie regretfully.
