After controlling Patton from the old man, he found the previous major general and asked him to help arrange the food and lodging of himself and others in Yanjing, the major general directly wanted to arrange for everyone to stay in Zhongnanhai, but Xie Tian refused, which was heavily defended, Patton was able to come and go freely, but he and others seemed a little too restrictive, so he asked the major general to help arrange hotels or residential buildings, now most of the housing in Yanjing is idle, and the good houses are under the jurisdiction of the Provisional Military Commission, which the major general did not say much, Directly arranged for everyone to live in a nearby five-star hotel, where there were also a lot of experts and scholars, but thankfully their number was not much, a few rooms were enough.

Thinking of Zhao Ziye's relatives, Xie Tian opened his mouth to ask the major general, if there was any news of him, Zhao Ziye's father was also a big officer in the Yanjing Military Region before, with the rank of lieutenant general, the major general said almost without thinking: "General Zhao has passed away, but his wife has survived, and now we are placed in the military area, I can take you over to see later." ”

Xie Tian nodded slightly, and then asked tentatively: "Now that there are so many survivors in Yanjing, has the Provisional Military Commission counted the information of these survivors?" ”

The major general shook his head and said: "This workload is too big, and no one has to do it, to be honest, Yanjing looks orderly now, but in fact, it is chaotic, no one has to do a lot of work, many people with prominent status in the past are now the same as other survivors, they can only have a minimum living ration, and the survivors of CCTV came to petition yesterday, saying that the food ration was too small, and they were directly beaten back by the officers below." ”

Xie Tian sighed secretly and asked again, "Then if I want to find someone from these survivors, can I find it?" ”

"It's hard to find." The officer said directly: "The media system is almost paralyzed, at present, the radio broadcasts after the information is disseminated to the public, and to be honest, this broadcast is for areas outside Yanjing, and no one listens to the survivors of Yanjing, but you can try it, publish the name, and see if you can pass on the information." ”

Xie Tian was helpless, so he said: "Then you can prepare a car for me, I have a young man who is from Yanjing, let him come to the house to have a look." ”

"Okay."

The major general quickly sent someone to send Xie Tian a military vehicle, with a pass on the car, which allowed him to enter the periphery of Zhongnanhai at will, and before Xie Tian went out, he said to Zhao Ziye: "Ziye, you accompany me to visit my home." ”

Zhao Ziye nodded lightly, and after coming out with Xie Tian, Xie Tian drove to his home, on the way, Xie Tian remembered the bad news of Zhao Ziye's father, hesitated for a long time, and said: "Ziye, I just asked the major general about your family situation, you have to be mentally prepared." ”

Zhao Ziye's expression changed, and after a while, he forced himself to calm down and sighed: "Thank God, just say it, I've experienced enough for so long." ”

Xie Tian took a deep breath and said, "Your father is no longer here, but your mother is now placed in the military area." ”

Zhao Ziye didn't speak, Xie Tian saw two lines of tears flowing from the corners of her eyes, and for a moment, Zhao Ziye looked at Xie Tian and asked softly, "Go back and go with me to see my mother, okay?" ”

"Okay." Xie Tian nodded, but he was thinking about his parents in his heart, and he didn't know where they were at the moment.

Xie Tian came to his house in the East Third Ring Road, which is a very old community, the house is not big, seventy or eighty square meters, but it carries most of Xie Tian's life experience, and there is no one living downstairs, it seems that the vacancy rate of houses in Yanjing is relatively high, and most people will not choose this inconvenient old house to live.

After going upstairs, Xie Tian stood in front of his house, the house was locked, and Xie Tian found the key to his house from the bottom of the shoe cabinet next to the door, which is what his mother has always been used to.

Open the door, the room is still as clean as new, my mother is a person who loves cleanliness, the house is always cleaned spotlessly by her, thank you Tian looked around in the complicated room, and there was no trace of panic, which may be a good sign.

However, Xie Tian then thought, parents are people who value their own feelings and never pursue any material things, if they are still in Yanjing, even if they are arranged to live in a five-star hotel, they will not live comfortably, or will they hope to live at home, but now there is no shadow of them here, are they not in Yanjing?

Disappointed, Xie Tian put away the house key, found the pen and paper and left the note in the room, hoping that his parents could rush to Zhongnanhai as soon as possible after seeing the note, and find Barton there, so that they could find themselves.

After going back, Xie Tian asked the others to follow the people of the Provisional Military Commission to the hotel to settle down, and he found the major general, hoping that he could take him and Zhao Ziye to the military area.

In the car, when the major general learned that Zhao Ziye was General Zhao's daughter, he said: "The military area is in a small area of the South Second Ring Road, and now all the people living there are military dependents, General Zhao's lover, I have seen it once, her life is taken care of very well, she lives in a two-bedroom apartment, and now the Military Commission is in power, and she still takes great care of our military dependents, and the rationing of materials is much higher than that of ordinary people." ”

Zhao Ziye didn't speak, his eyes kept staring out of the window, Xie Tian clenched her hand, knowing that she must be very sad in her heart, but he didn't open his mouth to comfort her, Xie Tian believed that she could survive, in the last days, death can be seen everywhere, and witnessing it again and again will numb your nerves and indifferent your surname, even if Zhao Ziye is such a sentimental woman, I believe it has been honed out, people in the last days need not comfort, but strength.

Soon, the car drove to the military area, to the gate of the military area, you can see that there are still soldiers with loaded guns standing guard, as soon as they saw the Zhongnanhai vehicle coming, the soldiers hurriedly saluted and let go, but the major general stopped the car and asked: "General Zhao Xinping's lover, where does he live?" ”

The soldier hurriedly flipped through the record book and said, "Report, in Building 4, 1006." ”

The major general nodded, drove in, and came to the front of Building No. 4, which is a high-rise community, but the Provisional Military Commission has supplied electricity here, the major general took two people into the unit door, and then took the elevator to the tenth floor, when he was about to approach room 1006, Zhao Ziye's heart beat very fast, and when he arrived at the door, the major general knocked on the door, and as soon as the door opened a moment later, Zhao Ziye couldn't help it anymore, and the woman in the door was in pain.

And the woman was stunned for a long time before she reacted, and she cried out all of a sudden, hugged Zhao Ziye tightly, and said in a trembling voice: "Ye'er, you know how much your mother misses you"

The major general glanced at Xie Tian and said, "I won't go in, I'll wait for you downstairs." ”

Xie Tian nodded and thanked the major general, at this time, Zhao Ziye pulled Xie Tian and walked in, the three of them sat on the sofa in the living room, Xie Tian sat on a single sofa, and Zhao Ziye hugged his mother tightly on the sofa of the three, and the mother cried for a long time, and Zhao Ziye told his mother about the things that had happened during this time.

When mentioning Xie Tian, Zhao Ziye did not hide it, and said to his mother: "Mom, Xie Tian is now my boyfriend." ”

Zhao Ziye's mother looked at Xie Tian with a look of relief, wiped her tears and said, "Thank you for taking care of Ziye for me for so long." ”

Xie Tian smiled indifferently and said, "Auntie, Zhao Ziye is my girlfriend, and it is my job to take care of her." ”

Zhao Ziye's mother nodded lightly and sighed: "I never dreamed that I could really say goodbye to my baby daughter, God still favored me and didn't let me lose everything." ”

Zhao Ziye hesitated for a long time, then asked, "Mom, Dad, what is he?"

Zhao Ziye's mother's expression flashed with a hint of pain, and said: "Your father was one of the first people to be infected with the zombie virus in the military region, and he was first sent to the military hospital at that time, and then your father was already in the ground, which can be regarded as a consolation." ”

Xie Tian stayed here until dark, Zhao Ziye's mother personally cooked a meal for the two, to Xie Tian, Zhao Ziye's mother could see that she was also very satisfied, she heard from Zhao Ziye's mouth what Xie Tian had done during this time, and said that Xie Tian was a capable person, and also had the ability to protect his daughter and give his daughter happiness.

Zhao Ziye wanted to stay here with his mother for a few days, Xie Tian had no objection, after eating, Xie Tian got up to say goodbye, and the mother and daughter sent him downstairs, Xie Tiancai found that the major general had been waiting here, and when Xie Tian came out, he got out of the car and said hello to Zhao Ziye's mother, and said to Xie Tian: "Let's go, I'll send you back." ”

Xie Tian nodded, his impression of this major general was a little better, in Patton's memory, this major general's name was Zhang Long, he was only the commander of a guard company next to his father before, and he was only in his thirties this year, and as for the rank of major general, it was also awarded after the outbreak of loss.

Zhang Long drove on Yanjing Street at night, the two of them were speechless for a long time, but Zhang Long suddenly spoke: "Brother Xie, in the two days in Jiangxi, I found that you have established that security zone in an orderly manner, and in many places, it is much more perfect and reasonable than Yanjing, Chairman Han's meaning, I want Commander Qin to start with materials and gradually enter the current leadership, if you can help Commander Qin, use your thinking in Jiangxi on Yanjing, it will be very effective, now Yanjing is short of materials, those who control the army, Only concerned about fighting for power, few people really calm down and think about the future, if Commander Qin can monopolize the power in materials, then it will be easier to take over the military power in the hands of those people, I am only a shallow learner, but I agree with Chairman Han's point of view, we fight for power, not for enjoyment, but not to let the country continue to lose, I have been with Chairman Han for many years, if you can do your part for Yanjing, no matter what, as long as there is something that needs me to do, I will never give up. ”

Xie Tian nodded lightly and looked out the window, Yanjing, the political center of this country, this city that is in ruins, and the seven million people here carry not only the hope of this country, but also the hope of this thousand-year-old nation.
