Chapter 16: The Loss of a Partner
The gate of the construction site was closed, and several men in the first car got out of the car, looked through the crack in the gate into the yard for a while, turned around and nodded at us, meaning that it was safe inside, and then they worked together to push the gate open, and the gate was not locked, but only hidden.
Several cars lined up and drove into the yard of the construction site, we did not see the expected flesh and blood all over the ground, you know, the construction site is a large gathering place for migrant workers, this large-scale infection, the construction site was not chaotic at that time is strange! But now there are no zombies in this courtyard, which is a bit unexpected! Could it be that on the day of the incident, the construction site was suspended and all the work was on holiday?
Whether the ground was once dirty or miserable, the snow obscured everything, and now all we see is a white field of snow.
The snow-covered rebar was piled up near the fence and we were able to find it quickly.
Transportation is a troublesome thing, the steel bars are too heavy, even by off-road vehicles can not pull a few, and they are still so long, and can not be cut on the construction site, we have to make a lot of movement here, will definitely attract the zombies near the street outside, the safest is to go back to the community to get slowly.
There is no way, you have to find a car that specializes in transporting steel bars!
God help us! There was a transport truck parked on the construction site, and we were even more surprised that there was still half a truck of unfinished goods on the truck: steel bars! It saves us a lot of effort to move to the car!
Without saying a word, we went over to check the cab, alas, it didn't go so well, there was a zombie in the driver's seat, and it was waving at us through the window! It must be the driver of this car, who escaped back to the cab after being bitten by other migrant workers, and just mutated in the cab, and then his IQ decreased, he couldn't open the door, and he couldn't get out!
The car door is certainly not difficult for me now, I quickly jumped from the pedal to the ground next to me, the unlucky driver zombie directly planted out of the high cab, fell to the ground it struggled and writhed, trying to get up, how can I give it a chance? Rushed over and stepped on its shoulder, grabbed the hilt of the knife back, aimed the tip of the knife at its eye socket, and stabbed it in with a poof.
A young man came with me with a kitchen knife, and he said, "Sister, I can drive this big car, and I run long distances in the logistics company!" ”
What a talent! I asked, "What's your name?"
He said, "Tiger!"
I went to the other side of the car to open the door and went up to the passenger seat, Tiger went up to the driver's seat, and looked at the car key first, which was great, and it was inserted in the keyhole! Tiger twisted the key and cheered, "The oil is quite sufficient!" ”
That's it!
Since there is already half a car of steel bars on this car, which is enough for us, I beckoned everyone to go home.
So everyone got on the bus, intending to return victorious!
They all said that they often walk by the river, how can there be no wet shoes, into the yard of the construction site, we only see that the yard is clean, and did not go into the building to check half, just want to solve it quickly, and think that there are no zombies on the construction site because the construction site was on holiday on the day of the incident.
Even if we saw the zombie of the driver in this big truck transporting steel bars, we didn't expect that since the steel bars were still being transported, how could it be that only this driver was working on the entire construction site?
So we were just about to evacuate when we heard a burst of howls in the dark building, and I was shocked, and when I looked again, wow! A large group of migrant workers and zombies rushed out of the depths of the cement building!
Forehead drop god! This is really a bad dish, the number of zombies is too large! A layer of white sweat is on my back! I panicked in my heart.
Before we came out, we all took the walkie-talkie, and I hurriedly shouted to everyone on the walkie-talkie: "You cover our car and go out first!"
This is not a selfish decision to be greedy for life and fear of death, and it is by no means like the famous sentence: "Let the leader go first!" That's a quote I despise so much!
Because this transport truck is big and stupid, although it is not afraid of zombies at all, and it can roll them like rotten meat, but once a large number of zombies are piled up in front of the car, I am afraid it will be difficult to get out, and it will be difficult for the ship to turn around, so it is difficult for the car to get out.
Moreover, this big car is very important, and it can pull a car of steel bars that represent the safety of everyone in our community.
If you are not afraid of an opponent like a pig, you are afraid of a teammate like a god!
Needless to say, several other vehicles decisively intercepted the zombie army, allowing our transport truck to quickly turn around and drive outside the construction site.
I leaned on the window of the car and looked back nervously, and suddenly, I was shocked!
They have to run away, don't get out of the car and fight! Because, these zombies are all wearing hard hats! Yes, how can you not wear a helmet when working on a construction site? You are not allowed to enter the construction site without wearing it, this is a rule!
If you can't damage the zombies' brains, you can't really destroy them! These zombies are the real undead, and our situation is too dangerous!
Canaan and his mates in our unit were already experienced, and none of them got out of the car, but they quickly started to flee after seeing us leave, and there was no fight. I think they must have seen the hard hats on the zombies, too!
But misfortune happened! A few new guys drove an off-road vehicle that didn't have time to be modified, surrounded by zombies! Hungry zombies poured towards the car like a hornet's nest.
We watched as the car door was broken by the zombies, pulling them out of the car one by one, they struggled desperately, but their knives couldn't cut into any of the hard hats, and the pain of being bitten made them lose their combat effectiveness in an instant, except for the screams that changed their voices, they had no ability to struggle at all.
The painful howls of several people pierced our eardrums like sharp steel needles, and the horrific scene of them being torn and gnawed made my heart tremble, and I knew what they wanted to do as I watched the cars behind them slow down at the same time, no! If we don't want to be wiped out, we must abandon these companions, and I shouted over the walkie-talkie, "They've been bitten!" Let no one go back to save them! It's too late! Retreat!"
In the pursuit of a flood of zombies, our car roared out of the construction compound, fleeing for its life, leaving the group of demons far behind.
I clutched the handle of the knife tightly with tears in my eyes, those boys were enthusiastic and brave, they were members of the action group, and they joined voluntarily!
One of them is a boy named Yu Xiaobo who impressed me the most, he is a game fan, and he is also a standard otaku, after the outbreak of zombies in the last days, he finally walked out of his room, and took the initiative to join our action group, this time before the departure he also said excitedly, Sister Duo, I can kill the game, the real monster!
I don't know the other guys yet, I just know that they are still so young, all of them are full of vitality, as if the sun has just risen, but, but they were killed in seconds!
How can this be acceptable to my heart? Although I know that in the last days, this is all too commonplace.
I hope that Yu Xiaobo can really kill a monster at the juncture of Zuihou!
Xiaobo, I'll kill more monsters for you! Rest in peace! I whispered silently to the young face I would never see again, big tears slid down, and my eyes were blurred.
Tiger drove in silence, speechless all the way.
Back in the community, everyone soon found that there were a few missing members, except for Yu Xiaobo, who lived alone, the other boys had families, and their relatives were so shocked that they fainted from crying
When the families of the boys who were killed woke up, they grabbed the people we went with and asked, how did they die, and we didn't go to save them?
In the face of the sad gaze of these parents or wives, we were speechless, in fact, even if we were more careful and entered the concrete building of Hessesen to investigate, we would still be attacked by corpses, and maybe none of us would want to run out on foot.
In fact, the real reason for killing them is that their own reaction is too slow, the action does not keep up, when the other cars are running out, they are still turning around, obviously the driver is too flustered, and the driving technique is not skilled, so that the zombies who are not fast in action make dumplings.
But how can we tell the truth? Isn't that shirking responsibility and pouring salt into the wounds of the hearts of the families of the grief-stricken victims?
We don't dare to tell them that we watched them being bitten to death and torn apart, because there was no rescue value, we gave up on them alive and didn't lend a hand, there is no problem in doing so, but we can't say that! No parent can accept this fact!
With tears in our eyes, we can only say to these crying old people and their wives that we didn't take good care of them, and if you want to blame them, blame us, it's really sad, just come up and beat us and scold us!
But no one did that, their expressions became more and more desperate, zuihou, they hugged us and only cried, no more questions.
The first time I experienced such a scene, my heart sank to death, and it hurt to death, just imagine that if there were me or Canaan among those people, my family would be in a state of collapse at this moment, right?
Thinking like this, I told myself more firmly that my life is not my own, it is the whole family, for the sake of my parents and son, I have to protect myself desperately, I live, in order to protect the people I love, so that the people I love will not fall into despair and pain!
That night, an elderly couple who had lost their son committed suicide by poisoning themselves in their own home.
When they were found the next day, the ground of their house was full of medicine bottles and medicine boxes, and the two old people were lying side by side on the bed, covered with a big quilt, but the death was not peaceful, the expression that had been solidified was very painful, and there was vomit next to the pillow, which looked extremely miserable!
But they must have felt that this was a complete relief.
This shocked all the survivors, and we quickly gathered the families of the other boys who were killed, and several women accompanied them wholeheartedly, even at night, in case they couldn't think about it and did something stupid.
But I can understand the pair of old men, really, if something happens to Shuai Shuai one day, I won't be able to live for a day! I really know this kind of parenting feeling too well, and I understand it too well!
