Chapter 32: Sin

The car, which was almost scrapped, was parked in the middle of the universal parking lot, and when they heard about the situation, many people rushed to watch, of course, they all had all kinds of weapons in their hands.

Huang Weizheng, who was the first to open the door, helped others open the door as soon as he got out of the car, and the weak old wolf was suddenly pressed on the trunk of the car as soon as he got out of the car. Everyone looked at Huang Weizheng, who was usually calm and calm, so unusually excited at this time, but no one dared to step forward to stop him.

Huang Weizheng didn't care about other people's eyes or the pain on the old wolf's body at this time, he firmly clasped his elbow in front of the old wolf's neck and asked, "You knew that the vaccine was fake from the beginning, right!" ”

"If I had known, I wouldn't have accompanied you to death." The old wolf didn't resist, he and Huang Weizheng looked at each other.

"Yu Heng didn't plan to kill me at all!"

"Really? If you really think so, why would you even go to grab his gun? The old wolf laughed, "You don't believe that Du Yuheng in your heart." You and he weren't all the same, and now you're alive to question me because I didn't let that kid beat you up at the time. ”

The distraught Huang Weizheng gritted his teeth and shook off his hand, took a step back but did not continue to refute the old wolf, but turned around and left angrily. Seeing this, Zhang Xiaoying hurriedly chased after her, and Liang Minxuan, who was silent after getting out of the car, could only carry Long Hao, who was still unconscious, to the emergency bed pushed by someone with the help of strangers.

The scenes of the destruction of the Qingshan Safety Zone in the raging fire still linger in Huang Weizheng's mind, and the scenes of wailing and panic and chaos are like the recurrence of the tragedy after the virus crisis got out of control; And Du Yuheng's last back made him fall into eternal grief and self-blame, tormenting his disintegrated life like a curse that entwined his life forever.

Liang Minxuan and Long Hao are the only companions Huang Weizheng found in Qingshan, Chen Mo and Wei Liqin and Wei Hong and others are uncertain, which means that he has not even been able to complete Du Yuheng's last wish, and all of this is because of the "vaccine" he brought. Now even Huang Weizheng himself feels that he is a sinner......

The indignant Huang Weizheng came to the stairwell connecting the parking lot and the first floor market, and he angrily kicked over the aluminum alloy square table in front of him. As the objects falling from the table stopped making noise one by one, the noise in his heart was temporarily calmed. His mind was still conflicted after his original sanity had been shattered, so much so that he had to hold on to the locker by the wall, trying to adjust his chaotic breathing.

"Are you alright......" Zhang Xiaoying, who was standing at the door, rarely spoke to others in such a gentle tone.

"The ending shouldn't be like this...... Huang Weizheng lowered his head and choked up, "I just want to be with him...... And now I'm killing him......"

"It's not your fault...... None of us expected things to turn out like this. ”

"No, someone thought of it," Huang Weizheng raised his head slowly, although he didn't really see his eyes, Zhang Xiaoying could feel his eyes that were like blood red in the night, shrouded in curse-like hatred devouring the last ray of sunshine, "He has arranged everything, it must be him!" ”

"Wei Zheng, what are you talking about?"

Huang Weizheng ignored Zhang Xiaoying, he hammered the locker hard, checked the shotgun with one side behind his back, and walked towards the market with terrible and heavy steps.

The originally crowded crowd in the market seemed to feel the evil aura of destruction, and invariably made way for Huang Weizheng and Zhang Xiaoying, who followed him to prevent him from getting out of control. The guards standing on the third floor who were in charge of guarding also noticed the unusual movement on the first floor, and when Huang Weizheng walked up to the second floor and went straight up the steps to the third floor, they were already on guard with guns. But I don't know if it's because the Bonelli shotgun in Huang Weizheng's hand is scary or because of the strong deterrent power exuded by Huang Weizheng himself, no one dares to stop him in front of him to stop him from advancing.

"Brother, what are you going to do?" A bold guard suddenly inserted and lifted the machete in his hand while pushing Huang Weizheng forward with his hand, as if to imply that he was not a coward who ate soft rice, and would just let Huang Weizheng go wild in the control area, "You know what this place is for." We can't let you in like that. ”

"Get out of the way." As soon as Huang Weizheng's eyes locked on the other party, the guard seemed to feel a chill down his spine, and his shoulders couldn't help but tremble, "I have something to ask Zhang Xing." ”

"If you have anything to say, I'll convey it for you."

At this time, the number of guards nearby increased to five, some of them were holding rifles and some were holding machetes, but Huang Weizheng didn't seem to pay attention to them, and he didn't take the warnings of the guards in front of him seriously. One of the guards' hands was still blocking Huang Weizheng's chest, Huang Weizheng took a step forward, and the guards not only did not give in but pushed him with a palm. I saw that Huang Weizheng's head was slightly tilted, his upper lip twitched to reveal his clenched canine teeth, and he raised his hand and slammed the butt of the shotgun into the guard's chin, and the man fell to the ground instantly.

Another guard not far from Huang Weizheng was just about to swing his sword when a sharp arrow swept in front of him and was inserted into the post made of composite panels. When they came back to their senses, Zhang Xiaoying was ready to shoot again. One of the guards with a gun raised his gun and heard the crisp sound of Bonelli's shotgun being loaded. No one dared to fire the first shot, because no one knew what the consequences of firing it would be, and even then no one had the slightest intention of backing down.

"Stop it all!" A woman's voice interrupted a simmering standoff.

Liu Yijing, who did not carry any weapons, appeared from behind the guards and calmly walked to the middle of the two sides. She turned her head sternly to the scavenger guards and said, "You all get out of the way." ”

"Sister Liu, but ......"

"Stand down!"

"Yes! It's ......"

After the guards put away their guns, Huang Weizheng and Zhang Xiaoying also put away their weapons. Liu Yijing came to Huang Weizheng, who was expressionless, and said calmly: "Don't be excited, Weizheng, we have all heard what happened in Qingshan." In fact, Wanxiang also had a vaccine mutation incident just now, but because the sowing of our vaccine was within the control range, there was no tragedy like that of Qingshan. ”

"Are you trying to tell me that Aoyama's tragedy was just an accident?" Huang Weizheng's tone was provocative, but Liu Yijing didn't care.

"Liu Yong is dead."

"It's just an accident...... Liu Yijing's face suddenly darkened, "He's Qingshan's spy." ”

Huang Weizheng saw that Liu Yijing's words were insincere. "He's not like a person from Qingshan, he's more like a person from yours."

"Brother Xing said to let you in, and he will tell you the specific situation." Liu Yijing's voice was obviously not as loud as just now, and it was faintly more like begging Huang Weizheng to let him go.

"If he really wants to talk to me, why don't he come out in person?"

"You also know that you broke in suddenly, when the safety is not guaranteed, how can we let Brother Xing come out to talk to you?"

"Get all of your people out of the vicinity of the office first, and then we'll go in and talk."

Huang Weizheng's request was negotiable, and Liu Yijing had no choice but to shake her hand and signal for all the nearby guards to leave. There was not a single scavenger in sight around the office with the blue curtains drawn, but guards could be seen at the staircase and on the edge of the corridor on the fourth floor.

"Come on." Liu Yijing waved her hand sideways and motioned to Huang Weizheng and Zhang Xiaoying, "Brother Xing is still waiting for us." ”

As soon as you open the glass door of the office, the classical music playing in the office is accompanied by the rich aroma of tea. Compared with the last time Huang Weizheng came, the furnishings here seem to have changed greatly. There was also a square coffee table and a few small rattan chairs in front of Zhang Xing's desk, and the leather chairs in the past were pushed to the wall, and what attracted Huang Weizheng's attention was that there were many new green potted plants here, ranging from the indoor landscape trees that traditional businessmen like to like fortune trees to the cacti that office white-collar workers like to place, Zhang Xing almost wanted to decorate his office into a small indoor garden.

"Brother Xing." Liu Yijing reminded Zhang Xing, who was busy tinkering with his tea set, to arrive, and then lowered the music played by the CD player in the display cabinet on the wall, which was completely out of tune with the current situation.

"Ah, here you are!" Zhang Xing looked up and saw Huang Weizheng and Zhang Xiaoying, who were standing in front of the door without expressing their stance or even a little hostile, but showed a happy expression, he added two tea places in front of the coffee table and motioned for Huang Weizheng and Zhang Xiaoying to come forward and sit down, "I heard that you had a very unpleasant quarrel with other brothers outside just now, this is not good, everyone has something to discuss, right?" ”

"There's a problem with the vaccine you gave me." Huang Weizheng got straight to the point.

"Ah, oh, that's what we learned about later." Zhang Xing poured a cup of hot green tea for Huang Weizheng and Zhang Xiaoying, and said with an innocent look, "Alas, I have some regrets when it comes to this, I shouldn't have let you take it so early." You see, Wanxiang's loss is not small. Our medical district is still a mess. ”

"Did you really find out later, or did you know a long time ago? Qingshan is now completely ruined, do you know how many people you have killed? ”

"Oh, wait! It's not me, it's you, it's you who have killed so many people. Zhang Xing naturally cleared up the responsibility with Huang Weizheng, but the way he spoke didn't sound a hint of anxiety or seriousness at all, but more casually like talking to Huang Weizheng about a game that had just ended, "Who told you to take the medicine away in such a hurry." I didn't have time to ask your friends to look for you, you see, they haven't come back yet. ”

"What friend? Are you talking about Xie Tao and Ban Zhiyu? ”

"That's right, after the vaccine mutation happened here in Wanxiang, the first thing your two friends thought of was the safety of you and your Qingshan friends, how precious." Zhang Xing took a sip of green tea and said with a smile, "Hey, this tea is good, you can taste it." ”

Good tea is also a rare luxury in this period, but Huang Weizheng was not in the mood to taste tea at all, he hurriedly asked, "Where did you send Xie Tao and them?" Castle peak? ”

"Hey, I didn't send them, they applied to go on their own, and that's when I remembered that they were friends you brought back. Seeing that they were in such a hurry, I allowed it. ”

Huang Weizheng took the case, and Zhang Xiaoying hurriedly pulled his hand, suggesting that he should not be excited; Liu Yijing, who was on the side of the wall, also put her right hand behind the CD player at the same time as Huang Weizheng jumped violently, and Zhang Xiaoying, who was observing Octavia, knew that there must be a pistol hidden behind the ugly-looking player.

"What the hell do you want to do?" Huang Weizheng squinted at Zhang Xing, who was still smiling, and asked.

"It's nothing, I didn't do anything." Zhang Xingcheng looked at Huang Weizheng's skeptical gaze, spread his hands and said, "Look, if you want me to give you a vaccine, I will give it too; Of course, there was a little situation in the back, and your friend wanted to save you, and I allowed it. Are you saying I'm doing something wrong? ”

The answer was obvious, Huang Weizheng had no reason to refute Zhang Xing at all, he tried his best to restrain his impatience, sat down and continued the conversation, which was completely dominated by Zhang Xing.

"Oh, by the way, I'll have good news for you." Zhang Xingfeng changed his words and said, "As you can see, there is naturally another reason why there is no tragedy in Qingshan in Wanxiang, that is, we have developed a real vaccine. This time you can definitely use it for that friend. ”

"There's no need...... Huang Weizheng lowered his head and fell into a haze, and the words he spit out were as painful as digging out his heart, "He doesn't need it anymore." ”

"Oh! Oh...... I'm sorry. This time, Zhang Xing retracted the weird smile just now, showing a trace of sympathy for Huang Weizheng, "At least he won't have any more pain." ”

"I don't need your sympathy!" Huang Weizheng stood up and was about to leave, "Since you said that the vaccine was an accident, I will let it be an accident, but if this so-called "accident" happens again, I will definitely not let you go." ”

Huang Weizheng took Zhang Xiaoying and turned around and left with Zhang Xiaoying, but just like he thought, this conversation was definitely not as simple as a condolence report. Zhang Xing quickly stopped him. "By the way, classmate Huang Weizheng, I gave you what you wanted, should you also give me what I want."

"What you're giving me isn't a real vaccine."

"I promised to give you the vaccine, but I didn't promise that it would work. However, I have to admit that at that time my promise was for you to save your friend, and now I am also responsible for this result, and I am not surprised that you are unwilling to give me information. Zhang Xing analyzed himself, and then leaned back on the rattan chair and drank his tea indifferently, "Okay, it's okay!" Next time, we'll talk about the information. ”

Huang Weizheng didn't plan to discuss anything with Zhang Xing, he pushed open the glass door and let Zhang Xiaoying out of the office first, and then prepared to leave this ghost place. But the moment he stepped out of the office on one leg, Zhang Xing behind him said intentionally or unintentionally: "Hey, it seems that Dr. Lu's research is going to be pushed again." ”

Everyone can hear that Zhang Xing's words were deliberately said to Huang Weizheng. Huang Weizheng couldn't think about it, who knew that at this time, Liu Yijing said to Zhang Xing again: "Brother Xing, this time a few more survivors have come to Wanxiang, what should we do?" ”

"Of course it's going to be handled as usual, how many people are there, is there a list?"

This is simply an invisible threat to Huang Weizheng. If Huang Weizheng does not continue to cooperate with Zhang Xing, I am afraid that the safety of Liang Minxuan and Long Hao, and even his own safety may not be guaranteed. It wasn't until now that Huang Weizheng realized that the warning given to him by Du Yuheng, who was straightforward on weekdays, was so reasonable.

"I'll give you the information." Huang Weizheng turned to Zhang Xing, who was secretly proud, and said, "But I want you to guarantee the safety of me and my friend in Wanxiang City." ”

"No problem."

"Also, you have to remember that I am not giving you any information to make a deal with you, simply because your Dr. Lu is more likely to solve this crisis."

"Of course, I know that."

As soon as Huang Weizheng closed the door and left, Zhang Xing's tone immediately became serious, and he warned Liu Yijing while sipping tea: "I didn't know there was a gun in the back." ”

"That's not to secretly protect Brother Xing." Liu Yijing smiled and turned up the volume of the CD player, and she also came to the coffee table and sat down charmingly, picked up the cup of tea that Zhang Xing poured for her, blew the thin heat on the cup, took a sip, and said with a smile: "I reminded you that you will anger him by doing this." ”

"But it also ruined the green mountains, didn't it? This deal is definitely worth it. Now there is only Wei Jiahui from Jiangshang, but he will not be as obstructive as Liao Daiping. ”

"Your trick is amazing, even I think it's a little cruel."

"No way, Lu Huaxiong needs more comprehensive raw data on the spread of the epidemic, and this time I can be regarded as giving him enough face. But don't let him know about it, or he'll have to ask me for something again. Zhang Xing returned to his desk and said, "This incident in Qingshan, let it become an 'accident'." When will the old wolf give you the blood samples and evaluation reports of the Aoyama subsp. virus zombies this time? ”

"I don't know, he was seriously injured this time, and it is estimated that he will be a few days late."

"Damn, looks like we're going to have to raise the price again. But it's okay to delay a few days, so as not to make Lu Huaxiong suspicious. ”

"Then how should we explain this raw data of viral lesions when we give him this virus lesion?"

"Together with the data that Huang Weizheng gave us when he arrived, I just said that it was the information of the front-line troops. As long as he can make the vaccine honestly, any excuse is fine, this is not your forte? ”

"That's right." Liu Yi approached Zhang Xing with a smile, and drew a picture on Zhang Xing's chest with her fingertips and teased, "People work so hard, how are you going to repay it?" ”

"Rest assured, when the vaccine is made, we will become the most powerful people in the world." Zhang Xing suddenly clasped Liu Yijing's hand, pulled her into his arms and said with a smile, "At that time, you can have whatever you want!" ”

"Nasty!" Liu Yijing deliberately resisted as if she were playful, and then fell into Zhang Xing's arms with peace of mind, and said with a smile, "You are like this, it really makes me wonder if you made this virus." ”

"I thought, I can't do this kind of thing." Zhang Xing caressed Liu Yijing's cheek and whispered, "But I know how to use it." ”

"Then use it well." Liu Yijing smiled one word at a time.

Zhang Xing looked at her and sneered, and said, "That Liu Yong is also dead, I didn't expect him to be able to get rid of our Xiao Huang classmate." Aren't you sad? ”

"What's so sad?" Liu Yijing turned her face sideways to avoid Zhang Xing's gaze, "He's just my pawn." ”

"Really? I've heard a lot of stories about you. ”

"You don't know what is right or wrong? If you are suspicious of me like this, then don't touch me! ”

Liu Yijing was just about to get up, but Zhang Xing hurriedly coaxed her. "Hey, don't do that, I'm just talking, just talking."

The smell of burnt burning buildings and animals in the air is still strong and pungent, and the red sunset seems to comfort the souls of the dead on this day. The drizzle from the sky could not wash away the blood stains on the burned wreckage of the building, and the black dust also filled the sky above the main building of Aoyama, which was already in ruins.

As darkness approached, the mutants who spied on the corpses all over the ground walked out of the dark corners one by one, spreading as the darkness spread, gradually spreading throughout the Qingshan Safety Zone. They trampled through the impregnable ramparts, ravaged the last of humanity's last apocalyptic civilizations, and devoured horrific corpses. Blood-soaked rain was left behind the street gutters from the safe zone, and the streets leading to the safe zone were stained red by the scarlet rain.

"Xie Tao, we have to find a safe place to settle down immediately." Ban Zhiyu, who was walking a little ahead of Xie Tao, looked around and said, "The voices of mutants can be heard everywhere here. ”

"Hmm." Xie Tao lifted the wounded man who was propped up on his shoulder, turned his head and asked her, "You are from the safety zone, do you know that there is any safe place around here?" ”

"There is a building with a convenient hotel sign on the side of the overpass not far ahead, and we can go there."

"Are you sure it's safe there?" Ban Zhiyu looked in the direction pointed by the wounded, and by the last bit of sunset, he could vaguely see the hotel next to the overpass, "We don't have time to look for other places." ”

"Trust me, I'm the doctor in the safe zone. There was an outpost supply depot in Aoyama. There should also be weapons and drug supplies stored there. ”

"Okay." Xie Tao pointed in the direction of the hotel with his chin, signaling for Ban Zhiyu to open the way, Ban Zhiyu, who was holding an old-fashioned submachine gun, nodded and walked forward, Xie Tao turned back to the wounded and smiled, "I'm sorry, his name is Ban Zhiyu, and he is more cautious." ”

"I understand." The wounded limped away under Xie Tao's support, "My name is Liao Yuan." ”

"Xie Tao."

"Are you Wanxiang people?"

"Well, I just got there. We were supposed to come over this time to remind you not to use the vaccine, but unfortunately it was a step too late......"

"You know about vaccines?" Liao Yuan was surprised.

"That's right, there was also a vaccine mutation on Wanxiang's side, but they controlled it in time and didn't suffer a catastrophe. Among the people who have given you vaccines are our friends, and there are also our friends in Qingshan......"

Liao Yuan interrupted: "You mean Huang Weizheng and Du Yuheng?" ”

"Yes. Do you know them? Hearing the two familiar names, Xie Tao and Ban Zhiyu, who was walking in front, both said excitedly, "Do you know what happened to them?" ”

"Uh...... It's not very clear. But when there was chaos in the security zone, the girl named Liang Minxuan and a fat boy came to the hospital to rescue the girl's boyfriend, which I saw with my own eyes. ”

"Liang Minxuan's boyfriend?"

"I guess it's Long Hao." Ban Zhiyu smiled, "They were a little ambiguous when they were in Tianyang. ”

"Yes, that kid's name is Long Hao."

"Long Hao is injured?" Xie Tao asked.

"Well, a broken hand." Liao Yuan recalled, "Du Yuheng cut it." ”

"Why?"

"He was bitten, and Du Yuheng cut off that hand in time in order to save him." Liao Yuan explained.

"Then what happened to Long Hao?"

"It seems that the virus has not spread, so it should be able to save a life."

The three of them had already arrived at the door of the hotel at this time. The hotel's closed glass doors were nailed with thick planks, as were the windows on either side. The undried blood stains on the steps didn't seem to be a good sign, Ban Zhiyu and Xie Tao both took out their weapons, compared to Ban Zhiyu's submachine gun, the saber in Xie Tao's hand might be more useful at this time.

"The door is unlocked." Ban Zhiyu touched the hole of the gun on the door lock, turned back to Xie Tao and said, "The lock was broken by someone with a gun." ”

Xie Tao made a tactical gesture to Ban Zhiyu, motioning for him to open the door softly and sneak in, while handing Liao Yuan a pistol just in case. There were no lights in the hotel, and when the door was closed, the visibility was reduced to a minimum, and they could only roughly see the outline of the furnishings in the room by the faint glow of the setting sun through the cracks in the wooden panels.

Liao Yuan, who was slightly familiar with the environment, lit the oil lamp on the table next to the door with the help of Xie Tao, and the three of them were able to see the surrounding situation better, but in fact the effect was not very good. Directly in front of them was the hotel reception counter, of course, they didn't need to check in, and the messy things scattered around them showed that the people here were in a hurry, and they couldn't even lift up a few seats.

Ban Zhiyu found that a person's legs were exposed on the edge of the counter, and the blood stains that were dragged extended to the door, it seemed that this unlucky guy was the one who shot and broke the door just now, but he fell here like this, indicating that there was something hiding somewhere, and he was looking at Xie Tao and them with fierce eyes.

The three of them came to the counter and found a blackened corpse, maybe this person had been dead here for a long time, or was someone chased and killed by the mutant who escaped here, broke down the door and killed the mutant? But with this clue, Xie Tao can't accurately judge the situation at all, but one thing is certain, that is, it is not as safe as Liao Yuan said now.

"What to do? Go out? The three of them surrounded the city back to back in a small circle, Ban Zhiyu said nervously.

"No," Xie Tao glanced at the light outside the window, "You may die worse if you go out." ”

"Hey......" Liao Yuan seemed to see something, she gasped, as if she was ghosted, staring bloodless at a looming figure hiding in the pitch-black field outside the only light where they were, "That seems to be something." ”

Xie Tao and Ban Zhiyu followed Liao Yuan's frightened gaze, in the darkness, there was really something moving, they wanted to deceive themselves into judging that it was an illusion, but when the pair of yellow-green eyes suddenly flashed out in the dark, the backs of the three couldn't help but light up, everyone's hairs stood up at this time, the air froze at this moment, and only heard their frightened heartbeat and the steady breathing of the thing in the dark.

Those yellow eyes were like two amber wrapped in jade, and the blue-green eyes scanned Xie Tao and the three of them left and right, as if they were analyzing their situation exactly, these terrifying eyes were finally locked on Liao Yuan, who was in the lowest physical condition and combat power, and they could feel that this thing was approaching them step by step, but no one dared to shoot, and their bodies were as if they were petrified at the moment and could not move at all. Canggu's resentful eyes gradually enlarged, one of his feet had stepped out of the darkness, and he didn't seem to be afraid of the light, and the other foot stained with blood also stood out of the darkness, just at the junction of light and shadow, Xie Tao, Ban Zhiyu and Liao Yuan saw a person who they couldn't have dreamed of, and stood in front of them at this time. tattered hard-wearing trousers and an army-green T-shirt with one sleeve missing, and a strip of black and red cloth that had long been soaked in blood was wrapped around his left thigh; I guess this is the sleeve of the bloody shirt. A black Type 95 rifle that looked slightly old because of wear and tear propped up the floor, making a crisp sound that instantly lit up the solidified air, and the tired face squeezed out a bleak smile under the interweaving of light and sweat.

Du ...... Du Yuheng? Xie Tao asked Ban Zhiyu to help Liao Yuan, stepped forward by himself, put away his saber, and slowly approached, "What's wrong with you?" ”

Du Yuheng didn't answer Xie Tao, which made them suspicious, and Du Yuheng's sweaty and scarred appearance was also a bit abnormal. Ban Zhiyu was the first to vigilantly pick up the gun, Xie Tao wanted Ban Zhiyu to put down the gun, but he told the truth himself, and he didn't know the bottom of his heart.

After a stalemate for a long time, Xie Tao called Du Yuheng again, and secretly decided that if he didn't reply, he would definitely shoot.

"Please, is it okay to put down your broken gun...... Du Yuheng smiled tiredly, "You are still like this after not seeing each other for so long." ”
