Volume 2 The Return of the Stars Chapter 60 Looking for a Daughter
The house is too important in this chaotic world of exile, and of course it is an absolutely safe place under the protection of the military region. In the pamphlet distributed by the military, a preliminary account of the current situation was given, but of course these introductions were limited to information that could not be concealed and had to be made public.
The Jiangnan Theater with Jinling City as the core is one of the five bases established in the Huaxia region. In Jinling City, the house will only be reserved for those who have status and status, even if you are the original owner, but now you can only sleep in the open space of the community, being driven around and hiding.
As winter approaches, the nights are getting colder, and those who are left in the open space of the community have only a thin cotton blanket. In the early days of the Blood Moon, people only thought that it was just an anomalous meteorological disaster, and that it would soon pass and order would return to normal, despite all the rumors on the Internet. But as troops from all over East China entered Jinling City one by one, many unknown troops would come in and out every day, and government officials would no longer stand up to reassure people, and the news alliance that was broadcast every day as scheduled was also stopped. Until one night, a loud explosion woke everyone from their slumber, and the mushroom cloud rising high in the eastern sky made everyone suspect that they were dreaming. The next day, the official statement was made that the island nation in the east had launched a nuclear explosion on its territory for unknown reasons...... The end times are coming.
More than three months ago, Huo Yan was kicked out of his home, to be exact, all the aborigines will be kicked out, the house no longer belongs to them, the collective distribution system launched during the extraordinary period, all the documents before the end of the world are invalid, and the new only documents are decentralized, they belong to the ordinary people in Jinling City, and they can only give up their residences for those who have contribution.
Huo Yan's husband was originally a soldier, as a military family, she was eligible to own a house, but unfortunately, her husband died on the way to escape, at the beginning of the apocalypse, only the army that defends the country will not hesitate to use the lives of soldiers to solve difficulties and maintain order. However, there are too many soldiers sacrificed, so much so that the upper ones have no time to take care of it, and the military has also played a trick this time, since he has sacrificed, no one can prove that he is a soldier, after all, all the information before the end of the world has been invalidated.
And the reason she ventured back to that room was to retrieve something very important, and as long as she had it, she could win a glimmer of life for herself and her daughter. It's only been a little over October, and the weather is already a few degrees cold, and if winter really comes, I'm afraid they will all freeze to death. Government officials sent by the military promised to resettle them in the winter, but who would believe such empty promises?
The open space between the seventh building and the eighth building was where they lived, Huo Yan rubbed his hands, snorted the cold air, and while rejoicing, he shook his head, leaving behind all the unpleasantness that had happened before.
But when she was about to walk back, she found something that made her soul fly for nine days, and she ran over in a hurry.
"Hey, Lao Shen, where's my daughter?"
In her violent shaking, Lao Shen woke up from his dream: "Shallow, isn't it here......"
But he reached out and touched it, but he didn't touch anything, Lao Shen was startled, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back leaning against the wall even in the cold night.
Looking at Huo Yan's cannibalistic eyes, Lao Shen stood up, and the little girl who had been sleeping beside her was gone, leaving only the thin frozen cotton blanket.
In the community, no one dares to make a big noise, so there are often people who secretly tear your clothes in the middle of the night, and it is not the first time that the child in your arms wakes up the next day and is missing.
Lao Shen has been Huo Yan's neighbor for nearly ten years, and he knows his own people, so he entrusted his daughter to him to take care of him temporarily, but he didn't expect it......
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was waiting for you to come back, but somehow, I was sleepy halfway, and I fell asleep all of a sudden......" Old Shen grabbed his hair in annoyance, he usually does things very reliably, but this time I don't know what happened, I fell asleep all of a sudden, and I slept so dead that I didn't even feel that the children around me were taken away.
Due to military management, it is not allowed to move around at will at night, let alone make a big noise, otherwise the end will be driven out of Jinling City. This is not the first time that a child has been lost, and the armed police who patrol the night will not care about these things. After all, there are too many things that used to be illegal and disorderly in the dark corners, but in the face of the strange end times, both the military and the residual government are like dealing with a mess, and the only requirement is to maintain a semblance of peace. There is only one principle in Jinling City, whoever makes trouble will be out.
After searching the community three times with Lao Shen, Huo Yan was almost desperate, she dragged a tired body and knelt on the ground weakly, and tears came out of her eyes. Shallowness was her only hope, but now even her only hope was lost. She's just an ordinary mother, and she has nothing but a little middle-class appearance.
If her husband is still around, he must have a way to get back the shallow ......
At this time, Huo Yan suddenly remembered a person, isn't he a mutant, there must be a way, although tonight is the first time to meet, he doesn't feel like a bad person.
The iron door of the building was closed, and Huo Yan could only sit by the door and wait, waiting for him to come out of the building during the day, or someone would open the door and take the opportunity to sneak in.
"Alas, it's over if you're found out like this, why don't you go back and rest first, and I'll look for it with you tomorrow, okay?" Lao Shen advised on the side that if he was discovered by the night patrol, he would definitely be treated as an unstable factor.
Huo Yan leaned against the wall on the side of the iron gate and shook his head.
"Lao Shen, I don't blame you for this, I'll get back the shallow."
Listening to Huo Yan's words without any mood fluctuations, Lao Shen knew that no matter what, the friendship between him and Huo Yan for nearly ten years was almost over.
"Okay, take care." Lao Shen sighed and left.
......
Huo Yan didn't wait long before the iron door was opened. It was already past two o'clock in the morning, and I secretly searched for three times in the community, and now it's almost half past five. Some of the people living in the community will go out at five o'clock, after all, it will take a while to get from here to the rest of Jinling City.
To Huo Yan's surprise, it was the black-robed man who walked out of the door.
In fact, when Huo Yan and Lao Shen were wandering around, Jiang Luo noticed them from the sixth floor. He didn't know Lao Shen, but the woman who exuded a certain attractive atmosphere, Jiang Luo could easily feel it.
Huo Yan quietly stopped Jiang Luo: "You, how are you......" She could feel this man's desire for herself from her previous experience, and this was also a bargaining chip for her to be sure to let the other party help her.
For so many days since the end of the world, she has been guarding like jade, but today for the sake of her daughter, she may have to ......
Jiang Luo glanced at the woman, and there were still some tears on her face at this time.
"Please, help me, my daughter is gone."
Jiang Luo is not a holy lady, the experience since the end of the world has long made his already frustrated heart gradually cold, except for his relatives and friends, he will not take the initiative to help anyone.
Seeing that the other party disagreed, Huo Yan actually took his hand and put it directly on her chest, to her surprise, this person's hand was as cold as a dead corpse, without a trace of temperature, as if a piece of ice was imprinted on her chest.
"Do you want to die?"
"Sir, I know that I am not related to you, and I cannot ask you to help me. Let's make a deal, you help me, and I'll promise you......"
Jiang Luo withdrew his hand, the other party should have mistakenly thought that he had developed some interest in her, after all, he had been staring at her with that kind of undisguised eyes before. Anyway, there is indeed something in her that attracts her, so it is better to be wrong.
"Yes." Jiang Luo was not afraid that the other party would not keep his promise, and in front of the mutants, ordinary people had almost no room for resistance.
Then Huo Yan informed Jiang Luo of what happened before, and Jiang Luo also found some clues from it, first of all, the girl named Qianqian is also seven years old, not a milkchild who can't speak, and it is impossible for someone to be taken away without making a sound! Secondly, Lao Shen slept very strangely, more like being stunned. In the end, Huo Yan sneaked into the building with her, it was eleven o'clock at that time, that is to say, the little girl disappeared after eleven o'clock, and the gate of the community was not opened after eleven o'clock, and Jinling City, where the curfew was implemented, did not allow ordinary people to run around in the middle of the night, so the person who stole the little girl must still be in the community.
But it's not easy to find a little girl among the many floors, unless ...... Jiang Luo suddenly remembered someone, he took out his Nokia phone and dialed the man with the popular name.
The phone rang three times and was connected at once.
"Hey, man, did you find the person you're looking for? If you have anything to do with me, just tell me! ”
After Jiang Luo briefly recounted what had happened, the other party was silent.
"Hey, Captain Li, okay?" Jiang Luo thought that his silence was because it was a little difficult to handle.
"Just call me Brother Li, they're all friends from birth to death, right? It's not that this thing is difficult to do, but there are too many such things in Jinling City, if you have to take care of it, you probably can't manage it if you are tired, and it ......"
"It's my friend's daughter."
"Okay, you report the address, I'll come over right away."
Half an hour later, Li Qiang really drove an off-road vehicle with a military region brand, but when he saw Huo Yan, he laughed, and then put his arm on Jiang Luo's shoulder and said, "Brother, I'll just say that you are such a cold person, how can you take the initiative to help people, even if you are a friend, you ...... Sure enough, my brother likes this kind of mature ......."
Before Li Qiang could finish speaking, Jiang Luo interrupted him: "Brother Li, just an ordinary friend." ”
Li Qiang made an expression of "I understand", and then looked at Huo Yan with a serious face.
"Hello this lady, since you are Xiao Luo's friend, then I will definitely try my best to help you find your daughter, please tell me in detail about the matter."
Looking at this soldier who drove a military vehicle into the community arrogantly, Huo Yan could also guess that he should also have a bit of identity, otherwise the two armed policemen who patrolled the night would not salute him, so she told everything except what happened in the building.
"Brother Li, you should be able to find that girl with your special ability."
"Phew, you treat me like a dog, but I'll try to sense it, but not the girl, it's that!" Li Qiang pointed to the location of Lao Shen, there was still a thin special smell left on his body, if it wasn't for the fact that he happened to be a mutant of the sensing system, he would definitely not be able to detect this meager breath.
"It's a powder of fluorine*nitrazepam." Li Qiang used his fingers to pick up some fine yellowish powder from Lao Shen's collar.
Fluorine*nitrazepam, which is commonly known as a strong * violent drug, can not only hypnotize, but also interfere with people's memory, making people forget what happened after taking the drug, and this kind of thing is easily soluble in alcohol, and is colorless and tasteless after integration, and is often used in some entertainment places before the end of the world, hence the name.
After Li Qiang's reminder, Lao Shen vaguely recalled that it seemed that not long after Huo Yan left, there was a person in the seventh building who approached them.
The seventh building is the building where Huo Yan was originally located and where Jiang Luo lives now, and the person who stole the little girl is likely to live in it.
"Next, we just have to wait for the rabbit, as long as the person who touched fluorinopam passes by me, I will definitely be able to sense it. Fortunately, it was this drug, and if it was another one, it would have disappeared completely in more than six hours. ”
Although Huo Yan was anxious, she had no choice but to follow them anxiously and lurk around the building waiting for the suspect to appear.
