Chapter XXVIII
Because Carl is a pure novice, he even has to pack up everything himself, and he, a big man of 1.8 meters, stands aside and stares.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for this time, and Jisi finally packed everything Carl needed into her backpack, which means that Carl can now leave at any time.
It's just that I'm looking forward to it before it's time to leave, but I'm hesitant when it's time to go. There is no expectation in my heart, more nervousness.
"I'm so nervous right now......" Carl couldn't help but say it, he could already feel his palms start to sweat. And my whole body is also hot, and my heart is beating violently.
Hearing this, Ji Si just smiled faintly and said, "Didn't you shout yesterday that you were going to go out and work hard immediately?" Why is it so cowardly when the day comes? ”
"This ......" Karl smiled awkwardly, rubbing the back of his head unnaturally.
"Well, you'll get used to everything after the first time. Don't worry, as long as you don't die by yourself, then you can basically come back safely. Ji Si patted Carl on the shoulder, she knew a lot about what the novice was like, because she herself was at this stage of turning from a novice to a city veteran.
"Okay." Carl swallowed a mouthful of spit, scrambled his bags and walked straight out the door.
Actually, he won't go out now, and the three of them will go out to collect supplies later. It is a bit valuable for Carl to overcome his psychological obstacles before this, after all, some newcomers can delay as long as they can.
"Don't think about it, there's still a long way to go." Karl closed his eyes and said to himself. He's still on the eighteenth floor.
In other words, he wanted to go down to the street, and he had to walk eighteen flights of stairs, and his body couldn't help but tremble when he thought about this terrible number. Oh, my God! It's really hard for them to walk like this every day, and I don't know how they persevered.
It took about ten minutes before Karl walked down with a blushing face and out of the door of the Harris building.
"Fortunately, my body has undergone high-intensity training for several days, otherwise I would definitely be tired into a dog." Carl adjusted his breathing, and after a while, he recovered. I have to sigh that Jisi is very effective in his training, and sure enough, his efforts have not been in vain.
At least Karl's masculine image has now shaken off the ranks of feminine youth.
After calming his breath, he glanced across the street.
"Right now I'm on Sampson Street, and there aren't too many convenience stores nearby." Karl pulled out a small map and identified the terrain. He hadn't been around the neighborhood in a while, and he couldn't remember anything but the supermarket.
"The first location is at the supermarket, I saw a lot of canned food in that place before, and no one seemed to notice that place at that time, I don't know how it is now?" Karl muttered.
So saying, Karl walked over as he remembered that day, and that day he was chased by the shadows that could not be seen in the street. Thinking of that situation, I also have palpitations now.
There are no exceptions to the ending of being caught by ghosts, and that is death! And it was a tragic death!
Carl's main purpose this time is to collect enough food, these places where the food is hidden are very remote, the supermarket he is going to is the place where he met the first person before, Carl knew about it before the catastrophe, although it is a little remote, but it is not difficult for people who are familiar with it to find.
This is also one of the places that Carl currently knows that canned food is available, and the other places are too far away, so he doesn't go there, but chooses a supermarket that is relatively close.
He believed that he would surprise everyone's jaws when he returned the first time, so that he could be considered part of the stronghold.
He always wanted to prove himself and prove that he wasn't a maggot waiting to die. Now the opportunity is in front of him, and it depends on how he operates.
"Whew......" Carl took a deep breath and walked out of Sampson Street and began to walk in the direction of Pitt Street.
There are a few small shops along the way, most of which are family-run, selling common flour foods, pizzas, beef burgers, fries and other high-calorie foods.
Carl tried to go in and take a look, but after a while he came out, and as they said, there was nothing to eat in it.
"It's a pity." Carl sighed.
Some of the food in the window, such as vegetable salad, cakes, etc., has begun to mold, and some even have white worms, which are all over the window, and they are very disgusting.
Carl also thought that this was only part of the story, but the truth shattered his illusions, almost every street shop did not have good food, and he didn't know if it was not preserved in the right way, or for some other reason, so Carl gave up looking for supplies in these places.
Putting aside these trivial matters, Carl continued to walk in the direction of Pete Street, in fact, the distance between the two streets is not far away, and it is not short to say short. The distance between the straight lines is only 300 meters, and if you count the curves, it is only between 500 and 600 meters.
It took Carl about ten minutes to come to Pitt Street, and when he saw the scenery in front of him, he was also amazed, "It's really three changes in a day." ”
"The last time I was here was just a dozen days ago, and now I can barely recognize it." He wiped his sweat.
The grass on the side of the street has grown from one person to two people high, the asphalt pavement on the ground has cracked, and many weeds have grown in those cracks that can only be seen in the wild. What makes people think about it even more is that those high-rise buildings obviously have a certain degree of tilt, as if they will collapse at any time.
To be honest, he wouldn't have said anything he wouldn't have gone into this shabby street if it wasn't for the supermarket to get something, and it was the second time he'd been here, but that unique sense of fear hadn't diminished.
"It's so weird, I always feel that there is something terrible and indescribable unknown hidden in it." Karl's face sank, and the unknown ghost made him stop.
Ever since Kiss talked about the types of ghosts, Carl really understood what ghosts were. Black Shadow is only the lowest level of ghosts, and it is also the largest group of people. The higher the ranking, the more bizarre it becomes, and the more unexplained it is by common sense. The top ten types of ghosts all have unknowns that humans can't predict, so Carl doesn't dare to be distracted at all.
