Chapter 21: A Town in Confusion
"......" Hu Ye's answer left Mike speechless.
Hu Ye glanced at this guy coldly, raised his voice and said: "Set off now, those who don't want to leave will stay, no one will force you!" ”
Without waiting for the others to answer, Hu Ye drove slowly forward.
Sam and Laura followed the truck first, followed by the others. Mike, who was at the end, gave the card a vicious look, and finally reluctantly chased after it.
The students hadn't eaten much all day and hadn't slept well at night, so they were moving slowly. The distance of more than ten kilometers took us five or six hours. By the time the town was in sight, it was getting dark.
Seeing that they were about to reach their destination, the students' emotions were also high, and they all quickened their pace and walked towards the town. Mike was the happiest of them all, and when he walked past the truck, he deliberately made a provocative expression to Hu Ye.
Hu Yecai didn't bother to deal with this spoiled high school student, he just wanted to send these students to the town safely, and he could leave after earning experience points.
However, at this time, a burst of gunfire suddenly rang out in the town, and there was a faint scream, which startled the students.
Hu Ye parked the car in the bushes on the side of the road and said to the others in a deep voice: "I'll go see what's going on, you guys wait here for a while." ”
Sam reminded Hu Ye: "Be careful. ”
Hu Ye nodded, quietly hid the pistol close to his body, and walked quickly towards the town.
The students were exhausted from the long journey and looked for a place to sit and rest.
Mike sat on the rock, kept looking at Hu Ye's truck, and after a while, whispered to the people around him: "What do you think the car is filled with, is it really more important than us as Hu Ye said?" ”
The student shrugged, "Whatever it is, it's none of our business anyway." I just want to go home early, and I don't know how my family is doing, alas! ”
Mike shook his head and said, "You can't say that, don't you have a little curiosity, maybe there's really something terrible in the car!" ”
The student's curiosity was also aroused by Mike, and he said helplessly: "I want to know what can I do, the container is locked!" ”
"We can pick the lock open." Mike began to come up with bad ideas: "As long as we can convince enough people to help, even if Hu Ye comes back, he won't dare to do anything to us!" ”
"This ...... Not very well, after all, he saved us. The student was still hesitating.
However, Mike didn't care about all this, and said excitedly: "I'll talk to the others, and I must find out what is in the car!" ”
Hu Ye didn't know that someone was beating his car. The previous gunfire made Hu Ye a little nervous, and he approached the town very carefully.
Although it was not late, the streets of the town were empty. The doors and windows of the building are closed, and it looks like a post-apocalyptic crisis. However, the raging floods did not have a direct impact on the town, so why is the situation here so weird?
This made Hu Ye a little uneasy, and he quickly took out his pistol and moved forward nimbly against the wall. As soon as he turned a corner, Hu Ye noticed a corpse lying on the ground.
Judging by the blood that had not yet coagulated by the side of the corpse, it was not long after the man was killed. It is very likely that the gunshots and screams heard earlier are related to this corpse.
At this time, Hu Ye suddenly heard suppressed exclamations and smug laughter, and hurriedly ran towards the place where the sound came from.
With an agility of nearly 17, Hu Ye became a master parkourer, making his way through the streets of the town, and in the blink of an eye, he came to the source of the sound, a small two-story building.
The main entrance of the small building had been knocked open, and Hu Ye rushed in, and immediately saw an unsightly scene.
Two men were trying to insult a young woman, whose clothes were almost torn naked, but still desperately resisting. However, a weak woman is no match for two strong men at all, her hands and feet are being held down by one man, and the other guy is already untying his trousers, and both of them have smug smiles on their faces.
Hu Ye, who suddenly broke in, startled the two of them, and the guy who untied his trouser belt scolded and scolded: "Where did you come from, little bastard, get out of here, don't spoil Lao Tzu's good ......"
In Hu Ye's opinion, people who do this kind of thing during the catastrophe are no different from beasts, and they will not show mercy at all.
Before this guy's words were finished, Hu Ye replied with a bullet. With the two gunshots, both men had an extra blood hole in their foreheads. The two of them, who were triumphant just now, fell to the ground almost at the same time, turning into two corpses.
The woman screamed and pushed away the corpse on her body, looking at Hu Ye in fear, for fear that he would shoot herself too.
The woman was very young, and although she looked average, she had a great figure. She couldn't hide the spring light, revealing a large area of snow-white skin, which also made Hu Ye involuntarily take a few more looks.
However, Hu Ye understood very well that now was not the time to be uneasy, so he hurriedly whispered to the woman, "Are you okay?" Do you want to call the police? ”
The woman calmed down a little, shook her head lightly, and said, "No need to call the police, the town ...... There are no more police! ”
"Why?"
"After the floods, the police in the town were transferred to the big cities." The woman whispered, "One of the policemen left behind was killed yesterday, and now the town is in chaos, and a small gang that used to be entrenched here has taken the opportunity to take control of the whole town. ”
Speaking of this, the woman glanced at the two dead people and said, "The two people you just killed are gang members. ”
"What a hassle!" Hu Ye shook his head with a wry smile, and then asked the other party: "Is there food and water in the town?" I still need a lot of fuel! ”
The woman told Hu Ye: "The goods in the supermarket have been taken to the big city by the police, and there is a gas station in the town, but it is under the control of that gang!" ”
This is not good news for Hu Ye, although he is short of fuel, he does not want to get involved with the local gang. Hu Ye immediately decided to leave the town and not to wade into the troubled waters.
Seeing Hu Ye walking out, the woman hurriedly stopped him: "Where are you going?" ”
Hu Ye said in a deep voice: "Get out of here!" ”
The woman hesitated for a moment and said, "Can I go with you?" ”
Looking at the poor woman, Hu Ye's heart softened, and he whispered to her: "Yes, but you have to keep up with me, I won't wait for you!" ”
The woman was very happy, and hurriedly assured Hu Ye: "Don't worry, I won't drag you down!" ”
Afraid that Hu Ye would be impatient, the woman didn't even have time to change her clothes, but just hurriedly put on a windbreaker and walked out barefoot.
It was Hu Ye who kindly reminded her to put on her shoes, and in exchange for the woman's grateful smile. Hu Ye realized that although she looked average, she still looked good when she smiled.
The two walked quickly outside the town, and the woman whispered to Hu Ye, "My name is Maria, what about you?" ”
"Hu Ye." Hu Ye replied briefly, and then reminded Maria: "Keep quiet! ”
However, before Maria could nod, a gloomy voice sounded at the street corner in front of her: "Maria, it's so late...... Where are you going? ”
