Chapter 204 The Choice of Fate

After staying in the sports hall for almost three months, Meng Jie and Wu Zhe not only found some weapons, but also successfully cleaned up all the zombies on the first floor. The things in the Jiabei convenience store have already been emptied by the two of them, and several small supermarkets in the vicinity have also ended up in the same fate.

During this time, several more survivors were added to the Cultural and Sports Hall, who were rescued by Meng Jie and Wu Zhe when they were looking for food around, and these people, like Ye Qiangke, have settled here and slowly adapted to the new life under the end of the world.

On this day, Meng Jie and Wu Zhe had to go out for the food in the back, and the places where they could find food nearby were basically patronized by them, and the scope of their travel was bound to expand to farther places.

Meng Jie carried the camouflage training backpack on his back, and the metal long stick placed against the wall was carried in his hand. Wu Zhe took the sapper shovel handed over by Meng Jie, pinned it to his waist, and then checked the dagger he was carrying.

"Uncle Ye, I'll leave you at home," Meng Jie and Wu Zhe came to the door and said to the old man behind them. The old man nodded, and told them a few more words, "Stay safe."

Meng Jie and Wu Zhe got into the car, and waited until the door of the sports hall outside the window was closed before they started the car.

The blue Volkswagen pickup was found at a nearby 4S store, and the pickup truck has a very comfortable cabin and a rear compartment that can carry things, which makes it much easier for them to go out and about than before.

"Where are you going today?" Wu Zhe, who was sitting in the passenger seat, asked.

"I've finished searching the neighborhood, this time I'll look at the east side of Jiangnan Road," Meng Jie thought for a while and said, "There's a Ganglong Times Square over there, let's try our luck, and if we can't say it, we can get some clothes for the big guy or something." ”

"Okay, you know it here, listen to you." Wu Zhe said. I just stopped by to get together with my old comrades-in-arms before, but I didn't want to get together for almost three months. Wu Zhe didn't think about the situation at home, since the phone didn't go through on the first night of the disaster, Wu Zhe hadn't tried again, and he didn't want the little thought left in his heart to be shattered.

The nearby road conditions have already been figured out by Meng Jie, he drove a pickup truck through the road full of obstacles, some roads that have been blocked have been cleverly bypassed by him, and the location of the nearby zombies is also one of the places they need to pay attention to avoid.

Jiangnan Road is very long, stretching from west to east. The pickup truck gradually drove away from Meng Jie's familiar area, and he slowed down, his eyes constantly observing the situation around him.

The pickup truck has come to the position where Jiangnan Road turns onto the elevated road, and the next intersection in front of it is Ganglong Times Square. The buildings of the shopping mall there could already be vaguely seen outside the window, and Meng Jie began to recall the buildings in the square in his mind.

Although it is not particularly far from the community where he lives, Meng Jie does not come here very often, on the one hand, because he usually does not have much rest time as a police officer, and on the other hand, because he is still single. In his opinion, what is there to visit in a big man going to the mall.

After sorting out his thoughts, Meng Jie's gaze returned to the intersection ahead.

"Look there, there seems to be a situation," Wu Zhe pointed in the direction of the square, "What are those zombies chasing?" ”

"Besides the living, you've seen zombies chase something," Meng Jie said, "Prepare to save people." ”

With one foot on the accelerator, the pickup truck suddenly increased its speed and bypassed the intersection ahead, Meng Jie and Wu Zhe saw two military vehicles appear in the distance.

"Is it the army?" Meng Jie's spirit was shocked, and a stream of blood and qi surged up in his body, and at this moment he especially wanted to catch up and shout to stop them. After three months of looking forward to the shadow of the army, he didn't want to pass by.

"Military vehicles, let's hurry up and follow." Wu Zhe shouted, his heart also rose to his throat, and his eyes were fixed on the two military vehicles in the distance, for fear of losing them.

In the group of corpses chasing behind the military vehicle in front, some of the zombies suddenly stopped, and they turned around and followed Meng Jie's pickup truck.

"Damn, what the," Meng Jie turned the steering wheel twice to the left, narrowly turning the car onto Canghai Road before crashing into the corpses, the road was not in very good condition, but they had no other choice in the current situation. The zombie group separated the pickup truck from the military vehicle in front of them on Jiangnan Road, and seeing the figure of the military vehicle disappearing behind the right side of the body, Meng Jie's hands slapped on the steering wheel in frustration.

"Can you catch up if you take a detour?" Wu Zhe was calmer than Meng Jie, although he was not familiar with the roads here, but the roads in big cities generally extend in all directions, and he believed that he would definitely be able to find a way back ahead.

"I'll try," Wu Zhe's words made Meng Jie recover some confidence from his depressed expression. He controlled the pickup truck to carefully weave through the road full of abandoned vehicles, and when he reached the intersection of Mingzhu Road, he looked to the right.

"!" Heaven seemed to be deliberately working against him, the middle of Mingzhu Road was already jammed with cars, there was the exit of a community, and the entire road outside the gate of the community had been blocked by vehicles, and several cars were even riding on the bodies of other vehicles.

The pickup truck accelerated towards the next crossroads, and after this time, Meng Jie estimated that the previous military vehicle had gone far. However, he still has a glimmer of hope in his heart, and he is even willing to seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity at all costs.

Missed this opportunity to contact the army, and then they had to continue to hide in the cultural and sports hall, and the surrounding food had basically been found by them, and they would have to go to farther areas in the future, which also meant that the danger factor would increase exponentially. As time goes on, their future chances will become less and less viable.

Wu Zhe also realized how precious this opportunity was, so when Meng Jie was driving the pickup truck, he kept looking for the two military vehicles outside the car window.

The pickup truck turned to Tongtu Road at the intersection in front, and Meng Jie calmed down and began to analyze the whereabouts of the military vehicle. From Jiangnan Road to the west, the route of military vehicles is most likely to go to Qingfeng Bridge or Bund Bridge, but the Bund Bridge was impassable as early as the first day of the disaster more than two months ago, so Meng Jie was seventy percent sure that the direction in which the military vehicles would go was Qingfeng Bridge.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that the people in the military vehicles do not know the situation of the Bund Bridge, or they may have walked south along Jiangbei Road.

"To bet, or not to bet, this is a question," Meng Jie's heart became entangled, his palms began to sweat, and he suddenly felt that the pressure of his life was concentrated on this moment and pressed down on his body.

"If you can't make up your mind, just follow your feelings," Wu Zhe saw the expression on Meng Jie's face constantly changing, and he had already guessed in his heart that he might be facing a difficult choice.

"Follow your heart?" Meng Jie muttered, and the next moment he had already chosen the direction.

The pickup truck drove straight ahead, and if you go down the road along the road is the Qingfeng Bridge, this bridge is the way Meng Jie went to the airport to pick up Wu Zhe back, this time the choice seems to have been arranged by providence.

The car drove through an intersection and was about to approach the next when the figure of a military vehicle finally turned out of front.

"Caught up!" Wu Zhe burst into tears with excitement, and after Meng Jie was stunned for a moment, his face turned red from excitement.

"I'll call them down with a loudspeaker," Meng Jie's eyes stared at the military vehicle in the distance, and Wu Zhe grabbed his hand and said, "Don't, if the sound is not good, it will attract nearby zombies." ”

"Yes," Meng Jie thought about it, or Wu Zhe was thoughtful, he stepped on the accelerator a little deeper, and began to keep closing the distance between the cars.

"It's strange," Wu Zhe suddenly muttered, "Didn't there be two cars just now, and where did the other go?" ”

Meng Jie also noticed this problem, but now they can only know the answer when they catch up with the car in front.

The car drove past the Ming Tower, and finally narrowed the distance with the military vehicle in front of it. The car in front also seemed to notice the vehicle following behind it, and it began to turn signal up rhythmically.

"He saw us," Meng Jie said excitedly, seeing the lights, he already knew the meaning of the car in front. For veteran drivers, light is the language of the vehicle.

The car in front began to slow down slowly, and pulled over outside the convention and exhibition center in front of it, and Meng Jie's car also followed, where the vicinity was relatively empty, and it was rare to see the shadow of zombies around.

"Wait, something is wrong!" Wu Zhe suddenly shouted, "Look at what's on the roof of the car?" ”

"Damn, how can there be zombies on the roof of the car?" Meng Jie was also startled, he saw a zombie crawling on the roof of the military vehicle, he didn't know how the zombie climbed onto the roof of the car, and he didn't know how long it had been on it.

"You have to remind the people in the car," Meng Jie stopped the pickup brake, and the two rushed out of the car, waving non-stop as they ran towards the military vehicle.

Chen Bo was sitting in the car, and he saw the pickup truck that was following him just now stopped, and two men ran out of it. He was a little surprised that he would meet survivors here, but before he could confirm their identities, Chen Bo was still a little vigilant.

Chen Bo took the gun from the seat next to him, then unbuckled the seat belt around his waist, and hesitated again when he was about to get out of the car.

Along the way, he has always had some uneasiness in his heart, this operation is not completely completed, although he successfully got the USB flash drive, but there is still a long way to go back to the Jilong Mountain Shelter. He was the only one left with the brothers who came with him when he set out, and he had to return to the shelter alive in order to prevent his brothers from dying in vain, so he had to be careful every minute and every second of the way.

Originally, Chen Bo didn't plan to pay attention to the pickup truck chasing behind him, but subconsciously he hoped to save the survivors he encountered on the road. At this time, almost three months have passed since the day of mutation, and it is not easy for people to survive until now, and everyone who lives is the hope of human beings to rebuild civilization.

"Could the danger come from these two men?" Chen Bo took this uneasiness in his heart as a sixth sense, he felt that it was his instinct to remind him of impending danger, but as a soldier he had full confidence, he believed that the two people running towards him did not threaten his safety, because he did not see the gun in the other person's hand.

Chen Bo pushed the car door and walked out, and the next moment he saw two people running towards him shouting in unison: "Be careful! ”

When the sound reached my ears, a sudden sharp pain in my shoulder followed.
