Chapter 172: Hope
Leaving the church with hope, Little Hope's eyes still fixed on the inside of the church. Chen Hang stretched out a finger and put it next to his lips:
"Hopefully, mom will sleep for a long time, she won't leave you, she will often come to your dreams to find you."
Xiao Hope nodded as if she didn't understand, she put her little head on Chen Hang's shoulder, and a vague voice came from Hope's mouth:
"Mom! ……”
……
The road back was not smooth, and Chen Hang was surprised to find that the forest was full of centipedes. A large number of centipedes poured out of the ground, and they brought out human bones one by one, and the silk flesh on the human bones was eaten clean by the centipedes.
There is no difficulty in the past, but the difficulty lies in the hope in the arms.
In the sound of "zizi", a large number of centipedes came out of the canopy and branches, and Chen Hang was very worried that they would hurt Little Hope.
In desperation, Chen Hang had no choice but to change direction, he turned around and ran towards the depths of the community.
Rushing out of the community, Chen Hang found a civilian radio station, which was connected to solar energy, and Chen Hang easily adjusted to the frequency on the aircraft carrier.
"Hang, what's going on? Why haven't you come back yet? ”
As soon as the radio station was connected, Wei Ruier's anxious voice came from inside, Chen Hang held the microphone and did not speak, while Xiao Hope stared curiously at the flickering light.
After a while, Chen Hang sighed, and he whispered, "Anne is dead." ”
There was silence on the other side of the microphone, and after a while, the crying of Lu Lili and others came from inside, and Verelle scolded the air hatefully, and then she asked:
"Where's hope?"
"Hope, I'll bring her back to the aircraft carrier......"
"Okay, stay safe, don't take risks, don't go wrong."
Ending the conversation, Chen Hang picked up the hope in the play, and he looked worriedly at the sun outside - the red sun on the skyline had slowly sunk in the west.
In a shop on the street, Chen Hang sat in the corner of the room with hope. Hope was holding a piece of bread, she was gulping down the food, Chen Hang handed over a bottle of white water, hoping to take a sip, her little mouth stuffed with bread was finally relaxed.
The two of them sat side by side on the ground, they both leaned their backs against the wall together, Chen Hang gently wiped the bread crumbs from the corner of Hope's mouth, and he asked with a smile:
"Hopefully, is expired bread good?"
Xiao Hope looked at Chen Hang next to him, she nodded again and again, Chen Hang smiled at first, and then a certain one was sad, Chen Hang sighed, and he put the hat on the shelf on Hope's head.
After feeding her hope, Chen Hang led her to wander around the store. By this time, the sky outside had completely darkened.
The small shop has a two-story room, and seeing that the stairs are very steep, Chen Hang bent down and picked up Hope, he wanted to go up with Little Hope.
But unexpectedly, Hope, who was wrapped in Chen Hang's arms, suddenly began to struggle, she pushed Chen Hang's hand hard, and the mouth of Hope kept making "Yaya" sounds.
Chen Hang felt very surprised, he put hope on the ground again, Xiao Hope raised her head to look at Chen Hang, she called loudly: "Mom", and then Xiao Hope climbed up to the top of the building hand and foot.
Chen Hang's eyes were a little moist, and he immediately followed Hope. Hope's pace is still unsteady, especially when climbing stairs, and occasionally she loses her center of gravity and hopes fall to the side.
At this time, Chen Hang would always stretch out a hand, and he would help Hope, so Hope stood firm again.
It took him a little time, and Xiao Hope and Chen Hang finally reached the second floor, and Hope's forehead was already full of beads of sweat.
Chen Hangbi was heartbroken, he hugged his hope to the sofa, and Xiao Hope did not refuse this time.
Sitting on the couch, Little Hope immediately began to feel tired, her eyelids slowly drooped, and Little Hope fell on the couch - she fell asleep.
Chen Hang found a towel and put it on Hope's body, seeing that Little Hope slept soundly, Chen Hang silently retreated to the window, he found a stool and sat down, Chen Hang looked out quietly, his heart was extremely desolate.
Another friend is gone, and she's a great mother. Desperately fleeing with hope, Anne fearlessly battles mutated creatures and teaches her daughter to be strong before dying.
However, she is finally swallowed up by this apocalyptic world.
Looking out the window, the zombies that had been hidden during the day came out again, either in the room or in the sewers, one by one the evolved zombies came out of the ground, and they began to wander aimlessly on the streets.
Suddenly, there was a tearing sound from the back of the street, and there were bursts of strange howls from time to time, and then the zombies on this side ran towards that side, it should be that the zombie tide and the centipede swarm collided together, and the two mutant creatures fought together.
In his sleep, he heard movement outside, and Little Hope's sleep became unstable. Her little face wrinkled, Little Hope's lips began to close, and she spat out a few words vaguely:
"Mommy, Mommy!"
Mom really came to sleep and met Little Hope, but Little Hope's dream was a battle scene, and she and Mom were fighting monsters.
Chen Hang felt sad for a while, he walked to the sofa, and Chen Hang gently hugged Little Hope.
Feeling the warmth of Chen Hang's arms, Little Hope was supported in her dream, her face stretched, Little Hope hugged Chen Hang's arm with both hands, she put her face on Chen Hang's chest, and the steady and powerful heartbeat made Little Hope calm down again.
Chen Hang walked around the room with hope, and inadvertently walked in front of a mirror. Chen Hang saw himself in the mirror:
The wound had healed, but the bruise on his face was still there. There was still blood on the corner of his mouth, and his forehead was smeared with white ash.
With a self-deprecating smile, Chen Hang finally understood why Xiao Hope was always wiping her face during the day, it turned out that she also felt that she was ugly.
After thinking about it, Chen Hang returned to the first floor again, he began to look for suitable clothes here, Chen Hang decided to clean himself up, he wanted to leave a good trace in the impression of hope.
Little Hope is still asleep, her consumption during the day is too intense, and the little baby is really tired.
Here, Chen Hang stood in front of the mirror, and it was the first time he had dressed himself so seriously.
Sneakers, casual clothes, and leather shoes were spotless, Chen Hang combed his hair very carefully, and his sideburns were neat.
Looking at the hope on the sofa, Chen Hang took a deep breath, and he had already made up his mind in his heart:
Hope - we will live well.
