Chapter 45: Zombies and Corpse Spots
Ye Ran introduced his two relatives very calmly, with a calm expression, as if he didn't feel that it was the end of the zombie rampant.
"When did you come here?" Jin Yue asked.
"Came from the beginning. It was my uncle-in-law who brought us here, and he was one of the directors here. Ye Ran said.
"What about your uncle?" Li Yu looked at the two women sitting on the ground and asked Ye Ran.
"My uncle-in-law and a colleague in his department went out to look for food, and they left yesterday afternoon and haven't come back yet." Ye Ran said, scratching his head, "I thought they were back, but I didn't expect it to be you who opened the door." ”
"Aren't you afraid?" Jin Yue asked. When Xiao Han heard this question, he sneered, and seemed to feel very bloody.
"Zombies, I've seen them in movies, it's okay. It should have been easy to hack to death. Ye Ran thought about it and replied.
"Haven't you ever been attacked by zombies?" Zheng Jieming was surprised by his calm demeanor.
"No, it's always my uncle and his colleagues who are out and about, and the three of us have been in this house since the first day, and we haven't been anywhere."
Zheng Jieming walked around the room again and found that only one side of this conference room had a window, and this window was still a dead patio. There's a small door in the equipment room, and I don't know where it leads. Overall, it's relatively safe here.
He understood why Ye Ran didn't feel scared anymore. On the one hand, there is an uncle-in-law and his colleagues who are under pressure outside, and the young Ye Ran has not yet come into contact with the real terrifying side of the zombie world. On the other hand, this lad's adaptability is really good.
Li Yu called Zheng Jieming to the conference room and spoke to him privately.
"We have to go, we can't stay longer."
Zheng Jieming nodded and did not speak. He was wondering if Ye Ran's uncle-in-law was still alive.
Jin Yue walked out of the equipment room and walked to the two of them.
"The young man, her aunt and sister have been muffled and don't talk much, but the young man is quite energetic." She said, not noticing the topic of Zheng Jieming and Li Yu.
"Jin Yue, rest and recuperate, we still have to go." Li Yu turned around, "You call Zhang Xiushan out too, and we'll set off in a while." ”
"Huh? Okay, then I'll call him out. ”
Zhang Xiushan likes Ye Ran's personality quite a bit, and he is teaching Ye Ran to use police crutches - although he himself is using it for the first time, he pretends to have several years of experience in using police crutches to fight. Ye Ran took it and tried it with great interest, and almost didn't throw it on his arm for the first time.
"The wrist must be thrown away, and it can't collapse too rigidly, otherwise it won't be able to exert its strength." Zhang Xiushan was guiding beside him.
"Lao Zhang! Here you go. Jin Yue stood at the door without speaking and looked at it, and then interrupted Zhang Xiushan's impromptu teaching.
"You take it yourself." Zhang Xiushan patted Ye Ran on the back, handed over the police abduction to Ye Ran, and turned around to follow Jin Yue out.
Ye Ran shook it a few more times, and this time it looked presentable.
Xiao Han was in the corner, looking at his Lotte cousin with a dissatisfied expression.
"Okay, old urchin, you're almost fifty years old, and you're quite familiar with the seventeen or eighteen-year-old young man." Jin Yue laughed and teased.
"Hey! I see that the kid is very energetic, and the adults of their family are not here at this time, so I will talk to him and teach him two hands. Zhang Xiushan smiled happily. In addition to daring to fight, he also likes to deal with young people.
"Lao Zhang, we can't stay longer, take advantage of the morning, our physical strength is still good, we must go out early to search for supplies." Li Yu said to Lao Zhang very seriously.
"Okay! You can go now. Lao Zhang replied simply.
Zheng Jieming walked to the door and listened carefully outside. The sound of zombies banging on the revolving door can be faintly heard. He was a little worried about the safety of this side of the car, taking into account the chase of the corpses before. He thought of a back door in the equipment room.
"Do you want to take the three of them with you?" Jin Yue looked at the back room.
"Don't!" Li Yu replied very simply.
Then he added, "It's hard to say whether the young man's uncle-in-law and colleagues can come back, and it's not appropriate to take the three of them away." ”
Jin Yue nodded in agreement.
Lao Zhang returned to the equipment room and said goodbye to Ye Ran. The young man and the old urchin fell in love, and they were quite reluctant.
Lao Zhang patted Ye Ran on the shoulder, "Young man, protect your cousin and your aunt well, and when your uncle-in-law comes back, help him more." This police kidnapped you, and a zombie came to break into the door and knocked off its head like a man! ”
Ye Ran was abducted, and happily agreed, "It must be!" ”
"Where does this door lead?" Zheng Jieming walked back to the equipment room, pointed to the door of the equipment room and asked Ye Ran.
"This one can lead to the backyard of the Association for Science and Technology, where there is a smaller back door leading to the family home. My aunt's house is there, and that's where we came from. ”
Li Yu continued to ask, "Are there supermarkets and police stations around here?" ”
"Yes! The supermarket and the police station are next to each other, and they are in the middle of the community. You go out through this little door, and you can walk along the road. Ye Ran pointed out enthusiastically. Jin Yue suddenly felt that this was the young man next door who was showing him the way in peacetime.
The four of them were about to push the door, but Xiao Han, who had been muffled in the corner, stood up.
"I can't stand it anymore! My dad must be dead! Take us with us! Her voice burst out of her throat.
There was silence.
Jin Yue turned around to comfort her. Her mother tried to hold her in her arms, but was pushed away by Xiao Han.
"Mom, don't touch me! It's useless for you to comfort me! Don't you yourself believe that he is alive? It's so horrible outside, my dad is dead again, and sooner or later we stay..."
The girl's mother slapped her in the face, and Xiao Han's long hair flicked with it.
Xiao Han looked at her mother with angry eyes, and then sat on the ground and stopped talking.
Her mother's face was filled with grief and horror, and it was evident that she could not accept the idea that her husband might be dead, and she was first and constantly suspicious.
Jin Yue looked at Li Yu, Li Yu shook his head, and signaled not to get involved in other people's family affairs, especially if the other party was a child.
Ye Ran didn't want to follow them, he firmly believed that his uncle-in-law could come back. He helped the four of them move away from the table blocking the door, and opened the door carefully, there were four or five corpses lying in the backyard outside the door, all of which were left by Ye Ran's uncle-in-law and the zombies they had slashed and killed before.
When the four of them went out, Ye Ran closed the door and blocked the door with the table again.
Zheng Jieming looked up at the sky and felt a feeling of tightness in his chest.
"Lao Zhang, you abducted the police to others, what are you using yourself now?" Jin Yue asked.
Zhang Xiushan raised the dagger in his hand, "The old ones don't go, the new ones don't come, if there are security guards at the back door, just grab another one." Besides, I'm waiting for a gun! ”
After the previous embarrassment and escape, the four of them moved forward extremely cautiously this time. Li Yu still took the lead, Zheng Jieming was in second place, paying attention to the surroundings and high places while walking, Jin Yue and Lao Zhang looked back from time to time, for fear that a zombie would suddenly kill from behind.
The backyard is separated from the front yard by which they had passed before, only by the main building of the Science and Technology Association. A short walk further is the canteen, a delivery truck parked by the door, the fruits and vegetables inside have not been unloaded, and now they have begun to slowly rot along with the corpses on the car.
A zombie in a white coat climbed out of the car, covered in the red, green, and green slurry of rotten tomatoes, rotten lettuce, and rotten cucumbers. Li Yu chopped it with a knife and turned around to propose.
"Would you like to go to the kitchen? It just so happens that the knives are jerky, so by the way, I will find a weapon for Lao Zhang? ”
The idea of sharpening the knife and not cutting wood by mistake was immediately echoed by everyone.
The kitchen operation room should be at the end of the hallway, and the whole room gets darker and darker the further you go. The corridor leading to the kitchen was littered with corpses, most of which had been cut off on their heads, and the corpses were strewn and scattered, and the walls were covered in splatters of blood, which looked eerie.
"Someone has been here for a long time." Li Yu reached out and touched the blood stains on the wall, which was already dry.
"Shhhh Wait a minute, don't talk, what's the sound? Zheng Jieming heard a strange sound coming from the wind in the depths of the corridor.
Bang poof
Zheng Jieming recalled that when he met Witch, he didn't see his "person" at that time, and heard his cry first. This time, I heard a strange sound, and I became more vigilant.
Li Yu asked Jin Yue and Zhang Xiushan to stop where they were, and pay attention to the entrance behind them. Zheng Jieming and Li Yu cautiously stepped over the corpse and looked forward.
Continuing to walk forward, the door of the original operation room was open, and a corpse was stuck in the doorway, and from time to time the wind blew, and the door closed, hitting the stiff corpse, making a popping sound. The door bounced back slightly, and the wind worked again, and the door struck the corpse again, making strange noises.
The body lay on the ground, with no visible bite marks visible up and down.
Li Yu seemed to notice the abnormality, patted the corpse with the back of the knife, and found that the corpse had been stiffened.
"This corpse is not the same as the one in the hallway." Li Yu frowned.
"What do you mean?" Zheng Jieming was puzzled.
"This is a normal human corpse, not a zombie corpse." Li Yu squatted down to inspect the corpse and explained to Zheng Jieming, "It has just begun to descend in order, and its lower body is still a little soft, and it is estimated that it will be dead for an hour or two." ”
Li Yu used a knife to cut through the corpse's clothes, and dark purple corpse spots appeared on the corpse.
Zheng Jieming suddenly felt extremely disgusting, he slashed and killed so many zombies, but he hadn't carefully studied a single corpse, looking at the colorful corpse spots, he couldn't accept it at all in his heart, he removed his eyes, and almost didn't spit it out.
Li Yu carefully looked at his neck, there were obvious white spots and strangulation marks, and found an extremely thin wound on the back of his head, which should have been inserted into his brain by a slender sharp weapon because he was worried about the corpse.
"Be careful. This guy was strangled with hemp rope. Li Yu stood up and whispered to Zheng Jieming, "There must be someone around here, and maybe they haven't gone far." ”
Zheng Jieming glanced at Li Yu extremely helplessly, he didn't understand what this guy meant. You never take a second look at the zombie when you slash it yourself, so it's better for you to squat down and study a strange disgusting corpse carefully?
Bang!
Just as he was thinking, the corridor leading to the outside world was suddenly slammed shut with a loud noise.
There was darkness all around.
