Chapter Ninety-Five: First Entry into Yokogawa
Hengchuan not only has the famous Hengchuan Film and Television City, but also an important town of economic development, Hengchuan has built five of the country's largest production and export bases for magnetic materials, chemical aluminum por, special aluminum electrolytic capacitors, speakers, pharmaceutical intermediates, etc., and takes magnetic materials, mechanical and electrical products, pharmaceutical and chemical industries, textile knitting, building materials, and cultural tourism as the six leading industries.
Therefore, although Hengchuan is only a town, the streets are full of high-rise buildings and wide roads, although it is not as prosperous as first-tier cities such as Shanghai and Beijing, but it is not much better than some county towns in the central region.
Yang Qian drove the pickup truck slowly into the streets of Hengchuan, and there was no imaginary scene of survivors everywhere, the street was depressed, and the tattered newspapers and plastic bags flying all over the street were the only moving scenes on the street, flying to the unknown distance, and the wind in his ears seemed to be recalling the glory of the past.
A month had left the overturned cars on the side of the street covered in rust, the weeds on the side of the street adding to the desolation, and the wide open gas filling port on the right rear of the car indicated that someone had used a suction device to pump out gasoline.
The street was extremely quiet, so quiet that there was no sound except for the wind, if it weren't for the fact that he knew that this was Yokogawa, Yang Qian would have thought that he had entered a dead and empty city.
"What's going on, why can't a living person see it, didn't Liu Chen say that there are 70,000 survivors in Hengchuan, is he lying to me?" A trace of doubt flashed in Yang Qian's eyes, and he secretly guessed in his heart.
In the desolate streets, except for the grinding of newspapers against the ground, only the low sound of engines sounded, and the silence of the streets was like a mountain pressing on everyone's hearts, and there was an illusion that it was about to suffocate.
After driving forward for a while, everyone finally saw the human relationship, only to see some raged survivors sitting on the side of the street, most of them with dull eyes, their faces were abnormally grayish, a few survivors were looking for something in the storefront next to the street, but all the valuable things had been collected for a month, and these unfound survivors angrily walked towards another store, trying to find something valuable.
In addition, the streets are covered with potholes of various sizes, like those caused by shelling, and the ground is covered with fine cement slag, and some of the shops on the street are even blackened, and the road surface has black marks.
The sound of the pickup truck alarmed the survivors on the street, and they looked at the pickup with lifeless eyes, and there was a flash of divine light in their eyes, and then it quickly dimmed, as if a drop of oil had dripped on a wick that was about to go out.
"Dad, Mom, are you alright?" Looking at the dilapidated and dead streets, everyone's hearts sank, and their brows were full of sorrow.
"Yang Qian, I want to go home first, I'm worried about my parents' safety." Wang Keni in the back seat said anxiously, in fact, it is not only her, but everyone else is the same, eager to run home immediately to find her parents, the current situation on the street makes everyone very worried about their parents.
"Okay", Yang Qian nodded, and followed Wang Keni's guidance towards her house, although the parents of the four Dongzi did not live in the same community, but the communities where the four parents lived were not far away, and after a while, Yang Qian drove to the Huayuan community where Wang Keni's parents lived.
As soon as she got out of the car, Wang Keni rushed up to the tenth floor like a superwoman and came to her door.
"Bang bang bang, are you here Mom and Dad, I'm Koni, hurry up and open the door, Mom and Dad open the door......" Wang Keni's show fist knocked the security door, but after knocking on the back door for a while, there was no movement, and she had a bad premonition in her heart.
"Sure enough, no one!"
Yang Qian raised the knife and fell, the solid security door was split open by him, and after stepping on the sawdust on the ground and entering Wang Keni's house, the furniture covered by the white cloth came into view, and the neatly placed items in the house showed that the owner was not flustered when he left, and there was still time to pack up things.
Wang Keni hurriedly ran into her parents' room and found all the other rooms, but she was destined to disappoint.
Looking at the depressed Wang Keni, Yang Qian's heart softened, and he comforted him: "Don't worry, all signs indicate that your parents must be fine, they should have been evacuated, otherwise they won't have time to cover the furniture with a white cloth." Don't worry, they'll be fine. ”
Wang Keni looked up at Yang Qian, with a smile in her beautiful eyes, and stretched out a snow-white jade finger at Yang Qian and said, "I believe that my parents will be fine, but it's you, you have a big deal." ”
Yang Qian looked at Wang Keni, who pinched her waist with one hand and pointed at her nose with the other, and said in surprise: "Ah, me, what's wrong with me?" ”
Wang Keni said word by word: "Compensate for my family's security door." ”
Yang Qian's feet staggered, sweating, sweating, waterfall sweating, daring to love this little chick with a sad face because of this.
Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they heard this, the originally somewhat dull atmosphere became much more relaxed, and the sorrow in everyone's hearts was also a little less.
"Let's go, go to other people's homes and have a look, since Kennie's parents have been evacuated, then I believe that your parents should have been arranged by the government to go elsewhere."
As expected, Yang Qian drove to other people's apartment buildings, but they were all empty without exception.
"There is only one truth, since the survivor base established by Yokokawa, then the only one that can block the zombie attack is the Yokogawa Film and Television Base, I think the government and the army should gather the survivors in the town to the Yokogawa Film and Television Base, which is why the town has become so deserted." Yang Qian dragged his chin and said his conjecture.
In fact, Yang Qian's guess was not wrong, after the army cleared the zombies in the town, in order to facilitate management, they immediately gathered the survivors of the town and surrounding villages to the Hengchuan Film and Television Base. Fearing that the piles of zombie corpses would cause a plague, the army burned the zombie corpses on the streets with gasoline, which is why everyone saw that the streets were full of black marks.
Then Yang Qian drove in the direction of Hengchuan Film and Television Base, and after leaving the town, the green in front of him made this world more vibrant, and lived up to the previous depression.
There is a saying that where there are people, there are rivers and lakes; In the same way, where there are towns, there are villages, and where there are villages, there are farmlands, and not long after leaving the town, Yang Qian finally saw the traces of people in the fields.
There was no one to manage the cultivated fields, which were overgrown with weeds, and the vegetables in the fields had missed the harvest season, turned yellow, and some had rotted in the ground, and all kinds of insects were burrowing around on the rotten vegetables, and the survivors were rummaging through the fields for useful wild vegetables.
A girl with a face covered in mud carrying a basket suddenly saw a car coming, and hurriedly grabbed the wild vegetables covered with mud in her hand and ran to a woman, "Mom, Mom, there's a car coming." ”
Wild vegetables are an important source of food for the survivors at the bottom, the woman who was busy digging wild vegetables in the field quickly raised her head when she heard this, looking at the approaching car, she hurriedly held her daughter in her arms, and looked at the stopped pickup truck vigilantly, and the survivors who were also digging wild vegetables in this field stopped their movements, and looked at Yang Qian and the five people who walked down from the car with puzzled and curious eyes.
In this era of moral collapse and the release of the darkness in human nature, anyone can be an enemy, out of the protection of the army, these survivors looking for food in the wild are secretly vigilant against each other, their safety can only rely on themselves, for fear that the wild vegetables in their hands will be snatched away, so when they see Yang Qian and others approaching, they are secretly vigilant.
Yang Qian looked at the woman in front of him with flustered eyes and thin yellow muscles, his mood was very heavy, he squatted down, took out a chocolate bar from his pocket and handed it to the woman, and said to the woman: "Why are you digging wild vegetables here, didn't the government distribute relief meals?" ”
Looking at the chocolate bar that Yang Qian stuffed over, the woman's eyes lit up, chocolate is a good thing that ordinary survivors can't eat, for fear that Yang Qian will regret it, she hurriedly stuffed it into her pocket, licked her lips and said: "This adult, the relief meals issued by the government can't be eaten at all, we are hungry and can't stand it, so we came out to find wild vegetables to eat." ”
After speaking, she stared at Yang Qian's pocket tightly, and did not hide the longing in her eyes, how she hoped that Yang Qian could give her some more food, so that she could let her woman eat better.
Since the end of the world, many people have been living on the government's relief meals, many people are malnourished and induced by various diseases, those who are sick can only resign themselves to fate, women do not care about their own life and death, but if her children do not get enough nutrition, it is difficult to survive in the cruel last days.
In this era, children are no longer treasures, they both consume food and cannot work, so the elderly are the group with the highest mortality rate.
Yang Qian looked at the little girl in the woman's arms, the still bright eyes made his heart tremble, his face was sour, he opened his mouth but couldn't say anything, and the four of Dongzi also felt very congested.
Yang Qian was silent for a while and said, "Is there such a shortage of grain reserves in Hengchuan, you actually have to rely on wild vegetables to feed your stomach." ”
The woman stroked her bloodless daughter in her arms, thinking of the hardships that her daughter had endured with her for more than a month, her face was miserable, and she bit her lips and said, "My lord, please buy my daughter, as long as the price of a box of instant noodles, my daughter is your person." ”
Listening to the woman's astonishing words, Su Yurou was taken aback and exclaimed, "How can you be like this, she is your daughter, how can you sell her?" Only Su Yurou, who had experienced the torture of hunger and did not know the tragic situation of the survivors, could not accept the amazing words of the women.
Sorry, this chapter is a bit slow. The flowers I received yesterday were not as many as I voted for myself, so let me be alone ~~~~(>_
