It is not a very simple thing to clean up a villa that has not been lived in for a long time, especially when this villa is very large, there is dust everywhere, there is hardly any clean place, and the day when this villa started to be unoccupied, it was not cleaned up, at this time the furniture in the villa was almost moldy, it is estimated that it will take at least a day to clean up this place completely.

"We'll have lunch and then clean the place, which might take an afternoon." On the road outside the villa, Tang Ji stood next to the school bus, looked at his watch, and looked up.

"Let's go over there!" After speaking, Tang Ji glanced at Robbie again, pointed to the two-story building twenty or thirty meters to the south, and said.

The building was only two floors, it looked old, the building was very dirty, there was no decoration, there were some vines and plants climbing on it, and it was clear that the owner of the building and the villa before the end of the world was the same person, because here, there was only this one family within a radius of half a kilometer.

However, the two buildings are not very close, about twenty or thirty meters apart, and in this twenty or thirty meters distance, there is a sparsely wooded grove that separates the two buildings.

As the others began to eat, Don Guy and Robbie walked to the two-story building with their guns in their hands, and walked through the grove to the wooden door of the building, which was locked with a lock.

Burst!

Robbie pulled out his pistol and fired a shot, knocking the lock on the wooden door off, and the two pushed the door of the small building open, and a thick layer of dust fell from the top of the door in an instant, the two took a step back, waved their hands and fanned the dust, squinted their eyes and walked in.

Because the windows of this building are very dirty, the building is very dim, the eyes are swept everywhere, there is no trace of recent people living here, it is full of messy sundries, some cardboard boxes contain old toys, old-fashioned radios, broken tennis rackets and other messy things, there is a metal shelf in the room, on which some tools and motorcycle accessories for repairing motorcycles are placed, and there is an old motorcycle parked next to the shelf to be "dozens of years old".

Obviously, this building is a place to put old things, which can be understood as a storage room, storing sundries.

There was nothing to see, and after a few turnarounds at the door, Don Guy and Robbie turned and left the dusty building, and walked through the woods back to the school bus, where some of the boxes had been unloaded and placed around the bus, and everyone was sitting or standing around the bus, eating.

Christine appeared with the Duke and walked to the shore of the small lake on the west side of the villa, with a dog chain on her left wrist, a biscuit in her hand to eat, a gun in her right hand, and a casual look at the surrounding scenery.

The lake on the west side of the villa is not strictly speaking, it should be two, the shape is close to circular, the large lake is about 100 meters in diameter, and the small one is about thirty or forty meters in diameter, the area is many times smaller than the large one, and there is a small island in the center of the small lake, a small island with a diameter of about five meters, there is a big tree on the island, and the two lakes are almost next to each other, connected by a canal one or two meters wide, and there is a small bridge on the canal.

Because the two lakes are next to each other and connected, but in a strange shape, it is not wrong to call it one lake, and it seems that two lakes are not wrong.

The west and south of the lake are large forests, the location of the villa should be in the northeast of the lake to be precise, not due east, and the two-story building is closer to the lakeshore, the location of the country road is on the east side of the villa, only about 20 meters apart, but in the middle are dense with tall trees, those trees are taller than the villa, and the branches and foliage are very luxuriant.

On the country road, there are two entrances and exits connecting the path, which is actually the front and last end of a path, because the path is semicircular, in fact, the intersection where Tang Ji and others drove into the path should be the entrance to the path, in the north of the country road, the northeast of the villa, and a little south of the country road, that is, the southeast of the villa, the end of the path, that is, the exit of the path, and the location of the country house is next to the center of this path.

The east, south and north directions of the villa are almost all woods except for the road, and the path passes in front of the gate on the west side of the villa, and then to the west, in addition to the lake and the meadow, in the northwest, about 100 meters away, there is a field that is not too small, estimated to be more than one hectare, but less than two hectares, from the front of the villa to the field, there is a compacted dirt road, obviously, the field also belongs to the owner of the villa.

When the end of the world broke out, it was early summer, and now it is autumn, it is the harvest season, but there are no crops in the field, and the eyes are full of weeds more than half a person high, it is conceivable that no one has taken care of the field for several months, there is no insect and weed irrigation, the weeds grow wildly, the crops cannot get nutrients at all, and it is difficult to find food in the field, but there is no absolute in everything, maybe you can also meet the fruit of one or two crops with tenacious vitality.

On the road in front of the villa.

"Do you like it here?" Tang Ji held a mineral water bottle in his hand, asked casually, and raised his head to take a sip of water.

"Of course, it's beautiful, with woods, lakes and far enough from the city...... How did you find out here? Have you been here? Monica, who was standing next to Tang Ji and leaning against the door of the school bus, asked with a smile.

"Maps, of course, Google Maps, a few months ago, not long after the disaster hit, it was supposed to be the third day, when we were hiding in the Walmart supermarket in Brooklyn, and I asked Manila to download a live map of the whole United States on my phone, and the Internet was still available at that time, and our plan was to come here." Tang Ji explained.

"Look, there's fish, there's fish!" Christine, who was bored after standing by the lake and watching the scenery, suddenly shouted excitedly, pointed to the lake in front of her, turned her head and shouted to the people in front of the villa.

The environment is so good, it would be strange if there were no fish in the lake, Christine made a fuss, but there were still a few people who were interested in it and walked over with food and guns, and Don Guy and Monica walked at the end.

When they arrived at the lake, several people were looking into the lake, the water was very clear, and there were some leaves floating on it, but there were no fish in sight.

"Scare away!" Christine's muffled voice came from the side.

Tang Ji walked to Christine's side, squatted down and touched the hair on the duke's head and chin, looked up at the lake, and said casually: "I have time to fish, and I don't know how many fish can be used here."

"How big was the fish you just saw?" Don Guy asked, looking up at Christine.

Christine raised her hand and gestured, about ten centimeters long, looked at Tang Ji and said, "It's so big, will it be delicious?" ”

Americans don't love fish, of course, it's not that they don't eat it, but they eat less, and local Americans, except for a few exceptions, want to eat fish is also to eat marine fish, not to eat freshwater fish, because freshwater fish are fishy, spiny, and troublesome to eat, in the history of the United States, because of pollution and other reasons, there have been decrees prohibiting eating freshwater fish, Christine, like most Americans, has never eaten freshwater fish when she is so old, so she has this question.

"Of course it's delicious, but you're definitely not used to it, and the soup is good!" Tang Ji shrugged his shoulders, stood up and said with a smile, he is Chinese, there is no problem with eating freshwater fish, the earthy smell is directly ignored, Tang Ji only came to the United States in his teens, his father is Chinese, of course, he will use chopsticks, and chopsticks can partially solve the problem of many fish bones, but native Americans cannot, their eating habits and dining methods do not seem to be very suitable for eating freshwater fish.

At about half past eleven, after lunch, and a little rest, they began to get busy, mainly to clean up the villa, and now transport the two rotten corpses inside, dig a pit in the woods next to it, and then clean up the rotten food placed everywhere in the villa, and finally start cleaning the villa.

Two or three people were in charge of the guards, and the others began to work in the villa.

…………

At four o'clock in the afternoon, near dusk, in the living room on the first floor of the villa, everyone was busy, making the final preparations before dark.

The living room is very large, with an area of at least seventy or eighty square meters, but there are a lot of things, a full set of sofas and coffee tables, refrigerators and cabinets, large TVs, or water dispensers, fireplaces, bookshelves and other furnishings, next to the living room is a small dining room, with a long table and six chairs on the left and right, the kitchen of the villa is open, just next to the dining room, where all the cooking utensils are readily available.

There are two bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor of the villa, and the spiral staircase at the corner of the room can reach the second floor, and the second floor also has a study, a gym, and a toy room, and the rest of the space, including the third floor, except for the bedroom and guest room, are all bathrooms.

The whole villa is carefully calculated, there is a study, a gym, a toy room for children, six bedrooms, two guest rooms, three toilets, one bedroom is the master bedroom, is a suite, on the second floor, there is a separate bathroom, if it is counted, then there should be four toilets here.

In the process of cleaning up the villa in one afternoon, many personal belongings were found in various rooms, including some photos and memories, which basically determined the situation of the original owner of the villa.

The male and female hosts are in their forties, with a total of five children, in fact, the male and female hosts have been divorced and remarried, so there are so many children, ranging in age from twenty to five or six years old, and the situation on the end of the day should be that several older children are going to school or working outside, leaving only the two youngest fifty or sixty twin daughters to stay here with the male and female hosts, and these two children are born after they get married.

As for what happened that day, no one can know, the two children are missing, and the male and female owners died in different locations in the villa.

On the side of the villa there is a garage, a large one, all wooden, which can be accessed directly through the door next to the living room of the villa, where two cars are parked, one is an agricultural vehicle, and the other is a Lincoln convertible sports car made before the 20th century.

Both cars have gas and can be driven, at dusk, Tang Ji and others drove the two cars out of the garage, parked at the edge of the woods not far from the villa, and drove the two off-road vehicles and the school bus into it, the school bus was in the innermost, and the two Mercedes-Benz bulletproof off-road vehicles were side by side near the outermost door, barely able to put down.

An afternoon of busyness, did not completely clean up the villa, of course, it is no problem to live in, but after dusk everyone stopped busy and then all went to the garage, at night Tang Ji did not let everyone live in the villa, but all slept in the garage in three cars.

At this time, there is no safety in the villa, the glass window zombies can be easily broken, the door is easy for the zombies to break, it is far away from the city, there are few zombies, but it does not mean that there is no danger, in the dark night, even if there is only one zombie, it is also a huge threat to people, Tang Ji doesn't want to sleep at night when the zombie inexplicably appears next to his bed.

Night.

Inside the garage, in the school bus, it was bright.

The doors of the school bus were open, and a few chairs were placed near the door. More than a dozen people, some sitting on the school bus, some sitting on chairs at the entrance under the bus, chatting while eating.

Although everyone was busy on this day, they were still in good spirits at night, because the mood was different, everyone had come to the destination, to this place where the danger factor was countless times lower than that of the city, and a new life was about to begin, and all the people in the spirit seemed a little excited, and they seemed to be in full swing when chatting.

Kristen and Hanny are arguing about sharing rooms. Laura and Jon are both acting strangely, and the two of them, who usually talk and chat naturally, look unnatural today. It's rare for Evan to stop looking at his computer and whispering to Carey about what he's studying. Jason was still lying on a chair in the school bus, laughing at Kellyti, who was sitting quietly eating.

"Whew!" Tang Ji lay on his back on the chair at the door of the school bus, breathed a sigh of relief, looked up at the roof of the garage, and his fingers subconsciously tapped on the armrest of the chair, looking like he was thinking about things, not knowing what he was thinking.

Sarah and Robbie sat in chairs across from Tanji, the two chairs next to each other, their hands clasped tightly together, and they whispered.

"Tomorrow we will go to the town, I have talked to Evan about the wind turbine, he can do it, but he needs something, tomorrow we will go to the town to find it, take Evan with us!" Tang Ji suddenly raised his head, looked at Robbie and said.

Robbie nodded to Donji.

"Don ......" suddenly appeared on the side of Manila's voice, Don Ji turned his head to look over, and saw Manila holding Cynthia's hand appeared at the door of the school bus and was about to get down, Manila's face looked like he wanted to say something and stopped, looking like he wanted to say something to Tang Ji, but it was inconvenient to say.

Pulling Cynthia, Manila walked down and to Donji's side.

"What's wrong?" Tang Ji sat on the chair and raised his hand to flick Manila's sleeve, which was a little dusty, looked up at Manila and asked with a smile.

Manila hesitated, glanced at Cynthia behind her, leaned over and whispered something in Tangy's ear.

"Let's go inside!" Tang Ji nodded, stood up and picked up the gun that was placed aside, raised his hand and pointed to the door next to him.

Don Guy walked in the front, Manila and Cynthia followed, and the three of them entered the villa through the door and into the villa's living room.

"What's going on?" Tang Ji closed the door, his eyes swept the dim and wide living room, and then turned to look at Manila and Cynthia, Manila had just told him that he had something to tell him, it was about Cynthia, he didn't think of anything, what would Cynthia ask for?

Cynthia had been silent all day, not talking, and had followed Manila to clean up the room and do a lot of things.

Manila pursed her lips, glanced at Cynthia, smiled a little strangely, walked to Don Kee's side, leaned over again and whispered in Don Kei's ear.

Gradually, Donji's eyes widened, and as Manila spoke, he took something out of his pocket and shook it in front of his eyes, which was used by a lactating mother...... Breast pump!

"Where did this thing come from?" After listening to Manila's words, Don Ji hurriedly asked.

"It's here, it's been disinfected!" Manila said, gesturing around.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Tang Ji looked at Cynthia, and although he smiled, his brow was strangely furrowed and asked.

"Well, he needs help, thank you for saving me, I don't want to be a useless person." Cynthia stroked her short hair lightly, nodded and said seriously.

"Okay...... Whatever you want, I'm okay! Tang Ji pursed the corners of his lips and shrugged his shoulders and said.

"That'...... We're going over there. Manila pointed in the direction of the couch in the living room.

"Go ahead, I'm right here, call me if you have a problem!" Tang Ji waved his hand at the two women.

The two women walked over to the living room couch and sat down, and Cynthia lifted her blouse...... Manila handed Cynthia the breast pump and took out the clear bottle for babies who were not too big or small.

…………

Ten minutes later, Tang Ji took the two women out of the villa and went directly into the garage, Tang Ji was holding a gun in one hand and the other hand in his jacket pocket, which seemed to contain something.

"Excuse me, Jason, get something nice with you!" Don Ji boarded the school bus and interrupted Jason's conversation with Kelly at the door, then walked up to Jason in a few steps, lowered his head and lifted Jason's coat casually, and looked at the bandage on the outside of Jason's wound.

"What's that?" Jason smiled and showed a white tooth, looking expectant, he knew that Don Ji was not the kind of person who joked, so a good thing must be a good thing.

"I've made a nutritious dinner for you...... Take it and drink it right away! Tang Ji pulled out his hand, which had been in his pocket, and in his hand he was still clutching a small and small bottle, which contained a half-filled pale white liquid, which on closer inspection could be seen to be pale yellow.

Jason took the bottle with a smile, looked at the liquid inside, he couldn't see what it was, raised his head and asked with a smile, "What's in here?" I lowered my head and slowly unscrewed the cap.

Laura, who was sitting in the front seat, turned her head and looked at the thing in Jason's hand, her expression changed, and then looked at Don Kee, just about to say something, Don Ji raised his hand and smiled and made a silent gesture to Laura, because Jason was looking down and twisting the bottle cap, so he didn't see Don Quixy's movements, but everyone else saw it.

"Drink quickly, I won't hurt you, I'll tell you when I'm done!" Tang Ji urged. (To be continued.) )
