Chapter 67: The Ghost Lingers

The empty streets, the smell of decay permeates, and the rousing heavy metal music wafts like a beacon light in the night, attracting zombies.

The car was not turned off, parked in the middle of the wide intersection, the front of the car was facing the west side of the street, Robbie and Tang Ji sat in the front and passenger seats, turned their heads to look to the left, through the window on Robbie's side, looking out,

On the street on the south side of the intersection, there was a gray wave, dotted with black and red traces, all of them were zombies, endless zombies, I don't know how many, they roared, roared, surging in the direction of the car.

The shrill and penetrating roars were one after another, and those who listened to them were chilled.

Tang Ji and Robbie's eyes were very calm, because if there was no accident, there would be no danger at all, so there was no need to be nervous, only Ba Song, who was sitting in the back, looked very uncalm, looked at the zombies approaching outside the car, and then looked at Tang Ji who was sitting in front.

He didn't know about Don Ji and Robbie's ability and style, he just thought it was too dangerous, but Tang Ji and Robbie obviously had no reason to choose this way to commit suicide, and it was definitely certain that they dared to do so, so he wanted to ask but hesitated, looked at Don Ji's face through the rearview mirror on the front windshield, and stopped talking.

Tang Ji also noticed the look on Ba Song's face through the rearview mirror, and immediately turned his gaze to the window again, without speaking, in this case, any explanation and comfort is superfluous, danger is danger, only by escaping this danger, Ba Song can understand.

Robbie put his hand on the steering wheel and looked at the approaching zombies outside, the zombie in front was less than twenty meters away from the Wrangler car.

Listening to the deafening heavy metal music in the car, Robbie taps his fingers rhythmically on the steering wheel.

The mighty zombie hordes were surging, the roars were getting higher and higher, and they saw the humans, and they became more and more excited.

Twenty meters ......

Fifteen meters......

10 meters ......

At this time, the zombies had formed a semi-encircled situation, Robbie turned his head to look outside, blinked his eyes slightly, pressed the accelerator, and slowly let go of the clutch.

The Wrangler cart walked towards the west side of the street at a speed that was not fast or slow, the zombies followed the Wrangler cart, roaring and refusing to give up, the huge music attracted the zombies from farther away at the same time, under the attraction of the two sounds, looking down from the sky, in the old neighborhood composed of several vertical streets, countless zombies began to move slowly, the roar boiled like boiling water, and all the survivors of the siege in the entire block were all terrified at once, or to the window, or to the door, looking at the street.

…………………………

Five minutes ago, on the street where the truck was located, in an old apartment building on the west side, a room by the window on the seventh floor.

The room smelled weird, like a post-apocalyptic room, littered with household garbage, food bags, toilet paper, and water bottles.

The room is not large, twenty square meters at most, with only one bed, but four people gather.

The double bed, the pillow had been thrown to the floor, covered with dirty sheets, with a damp smell, and there were four naked people lying on the bed, three big boys of seventeen or eighteen years old, and a woman of twenty-six or seventeen, all of whom were white, the boy looked like a high school student, and the woman had stretch marks on her abdomen, and had given birth, she should be a young woman, her face was not very beautiful, with freckles, but her figure was very good, lying horizontally on the bed, and the three boys put their heads on her breasts, abdomen, and thighs.

The room was quiet, there was no sound at all, and the air was a little stuffy.

All four of them stared blankly at the ceiling, as if they didn't mind the fact that they were not wearing clothes, and the woman was too, motionless, as if waiting...... Waiting for death to come, their faces were all pale, their cheeks sunken, and they hadn't eaten for a long time.

Is it seven days? Or eight days? Or is it nine days?

I don't know, they don't remember.

Suddenly, the long-haired boy who was lying on the woman's chest got up, turned over and looked at the woman's face, and after two or three seconds, grabbed the woman's chest and kneaded it, lowered his head and kissed the woman's lips, the woman reluctantly hugged the boy and responded to the kiss, and the other two boys suddenly moved, turning over and touching the woman's body.

There was no disgust on the woman's face, nor did she want to resist, and there was even a hint of intoxication on her face.

It seems that the four of them are about to make a hyper-friendly physical contact with each other, and it depends...... This is not the first time.

But, suddenly, one of the boys withdrew, shrunk back, curled up at the end of the bed, there was no excitement in his eyes, looking at the iron guardrail at the end of the bed, stunned.

Slowly, the other two boys gradually stopped, the woman snorted twice, saw that the other party did not move, she gave up, and finally kissed the long-haired boy's lips, and lay down weakly, looking at the ceiling motionless, for a long time, her eyes blinked slightly, and her eyeballs moved slightly, proving that she was still alive.

The room fell silent again, and the silence was a little chilling, and they all seemed to have lost interest in their surnames at this time, even if several people came together, they didn't have the initial thrill. The other day, they regarded their surnames as the last madness of the end of the world, and no one forced anyone, not even a woman, to take the initiative to seduce the three boys, and now, everything has become boring.

The woman felt that her consciousness was a little blurred, looking at the ceiling, her eyes were foggy, as if she saw her husband and daughter, gathering with her family before the outbreak of the end of the world, laughing and laughing, last year's Halloween party...... Graduation Ceremony of Daughter's Kindergarten...... Friend's Wedding ...... And so on, she suddenly thought of a lot, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.

Before the end of the world, she had an enviable job, a happy family, her husband was honest and took care of the family, and her daughter was well-behaved and smart, which was a family that made her neighbors very envious, but it was a pity...... Right now...... Everything had changed, and she knew she was going to die, and she knew many days ago that she was going to die here, because she saw with her own eyes the zombies that were surging outside, surrounding the whole street, and it seemed that it was going to drown everything.

She was desperate, and with her were the three boys she met on the road who had escaped with them, and when the food was eaten and the water was drunk, they were in a real desperate situation, and then they ...... Everything doesn't matter anymore, women even sometimes think about wishing that they would die suddenly in bed when they were **, so that they would not feel pain.

Click! Roar!

Suddenly, a huge noise of zombies sounded on the street, and the roar spread from the street like a wave to the end of the street, connecting together, the change was abrupt and intensified.

The eyes of the four people in the room on the seventh floor widened at the same time, and then they all quickly got up from the bed, got out of bed and ran to the window, opened the curtain a gap, and all looked out.

Outside is the street where trucks are parked, and the zombies that fill the street begin to move, heading towards the north.

Someone! Someone attracted zombies!

"God forbid!"

With a feeble cry of surprise, the woman and the three boys hugged each other tightly, looking out the window, hope rising in their eyes.

A sense of aftermath filled their hearts.

………………………………

On a street north of the giant zombie horde.

The zombies are moving, the Wrangler car is also moving, Robbie's driving skills are good, so that the car maintains an almost constant speed of movement, through the entire street, the distance between the zombie group and the car is kept within ten meters, five meters away, they have been chasing, but they have never been able to catch up.

After crossing the street, turn right at the intersection, the window of the Wrangler car is raised, and the music is turned off, but the speed remains the same, and the zombies remain in a state of hooking up and heading north.

After walking for a full ten minutes, a total of three long streets, the Wrangler car suddenly accelerated, and disappeared in the dust with the roar of the engine.

Although there are often zombies on both sides, they are all sporadic zombies on the street they pass, but the windows have been closed, and a single zombie can't break the glass windshield of the Wrangler car for a short time.

"It's time to act, let's go back in twenty minutes." Inside the car, Tang Ji estimated the time, picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "Be careful." ”

"Roger." Mike Sr.'s voice was immediately heard over the intercom.

……

"Fasten your seat belts, and hold on to the back."

On the side of the wide and dilapidated street, old Mike in the Land Rover put down the walkie-talkie, shouted to the others, bent down and quickly agitated a few times under the steering wheel, and in just a few seconds, the car vibrated slightly and started with a buzz.

Boom!

With two thumps of the accelerator, the Land Rover sped off and sped off toward the street where the truck was parked.

…………………………

In contrast to the other streets of Manhattan, two dirty cars are parked in the middle of the road, one is a Jeep Grand Cherokee and the other is a terrified German-MAN truck.

There are a lot of zombie corpses on this street, especially in an alley next to it, the zombie corpses are thickly piled up, but the zombies alive on the whole street are very rare, no more than ten, which is very different from the situation when zombies were full of zombies a few minutes ago.

And these zombies, their legs are very seriously injured, showing a strange twist, because they did not keep up with the zombie army at that time, and now they have lost the target they can follow, so these small number of zombies are shaking their bodies with their shoulders high and low, wandering aimlessly, very slowly, their blood-red eyes have no look, and even two zombies are half gone, lying on the ground and paddling their bodies with their arms, roaring in a low voice.

Suddenly, several people ran out of the building on the west side of the street, three boys of seventeen or eighteen years old, and a young white woman of twenty-six or seventeen years old, a total of four, all of them very pale, with sunken cheeks, weak steps, very messy clothes, which looked like they had been put on haphazardly, and their hair was all messy.

Thump!

The woman who ran at the end stumbled and fell on the sidewalk, but she didn't seem to feel the pain, didn't cry or shout, and immediately used all her strength, got up with great difficulty, and chased forward without saying a word, and the three people in front did not stop.

The four of them all ran diagonally in the direction of the truck, the back door of the truck was wide open, they could vaguely see something inside, in fact, they had been hiding in that room for more than fifteen days, whether it was Brooke who came first, or Don Quey who came later, and the conflict between the two sides, they all saw it, they knew what kind of person Brooke was, so they didn't dare to go out, of course, they also knew what was in the car.

Yikes! Boom!

At this time, at the intersection in the north, an off-road vehicle rushed out and entered the street, you can feel that the driving skills are average, because the driving is too fast, when turning into the street, it also hit the rear headlight of an abandoned car, but because the impact surface is very small, it did not have much impact on the off-road vehicle, but the front light was broken.

There were three men sitting in the buggy, and the men in the cab had thin cheeks...... It's Brooke!

Brooke was very unhappy this afternoon, because he lost Tang Ji and the others, mainly because of the zombies, Brooke and the others had to follow carefully, not only to guard against being discovered by Tang Ji and the others, but also to guard against zombies.

It can be said that it is not easy to keep up with Tang Ji and these people in this situation, after all, Brooke was only a member of the small gang before the end of the world, and he didn't know any professional tracking knowledge at all, so it was not surprising to lose it, but he was very unwilling, and his desire for revenge was too strong.

But I didn't expect the peak to turn around, and Tang Ji and these people actually came back, and Brooke, who was standing on the tall building, saw Tang Ji and others who got out of the car to talk and change cars.

Brooke is not a stupid person, if he doesn't have enough brains, he can't become a leader, he immediately thought of the reason why Tang Ji and the others came back to get close to the giant zombie group, it was because of the truck, because Brooke also valued that truck, and he thought about it from the same angle, so he thought of it at the first time, of course, it could be other reasons, but Brooke felt that only this was the greatest possibility.

So he didn't launch a sneak attack at that time, he had already got a new firearm, but he didn't do that.

If you want to get the truck, the first thing to do is to lure away the zombies, there is no other way, Brooke can naturally think of this, so he has to get the truck first after Tang Ji and the others lure away the zombies.

The off-road vehicle quickly approached the truck.

"There are four people approaching the truck, not their group, shall we ......" the young black man sitting in the passenger seat asked as he looked out the window and then made a gesture to Brooke, who was holding a silenced pistol.

Someone once joked that there are as many gun shops in the United States as there are public toilets, and although the actual situation is not so exaggerated, it is not difficult for people who dare to go out and walk in the last days to find guns.

"No, you don't." Brooke squinted at the three men and one woman on the street outside the window, shook his head slightly and said, then slammed on the accelerator and quickly shifted gears, and the speed of the car suddenly increased a lot.

Boom! Click! Syllable! Click!

Brooke's behavior is crazy, in order to get faster, he actually drove the off-road vehicle in a straight line, causing a small collision with several abandoned cars, and the front of the off-road vehicle has been deformed, but Brooke still does not reduce the speed, because the car is about to be lost, it doesn't matter.

Wow...... Click!

The off-road vehicle reached the vicinity of the truck at great speed, Brooke slammed on the brakes and hit the steering wheel, and the whole off-road vehicle suddenly slid sideways, and the car stopped after a harsh friction sound.

Brooke's shaking body quickly stabilized, unfastened his seat belt, pushed the door of the car and walked down very quickly, raising his gun to the three men and one woman who were still four or five meters away from the truck: "All stand back, raise your hands!" ”

Burst!

Brooke fired, and a bullet landed in the foot of the boy in front.
