3. Leave the hospital

Pulling up Luffy, who was squatting on the ground retching, Rick and Luffy helped each other to the other end of the hallway. In the flickering lights, Luffy and Rick saw bullet holes in the walls and bloody handprints on the doors in the hallways of the hospital.

Underneath the handprints was a pool of blackened blood, from which a line of handprints stretched from the front of the door towards the corridor in the distance. Looking at such a scene, Luffy Yang began to retch again.

Looking at the retching Luffy, Rick turned his head in one direction and walked forward, not letting Luffy look at the blood on the ground, and comforted in a low voice: "Don't look at the ground, don't think about the ground." Take a deep breath, take a deep breath. ”

Passing through the bloodstained, broken door in the middle of the hallway, Luffy and Rick entered the more messy hallway ahead. Dodging the wires hanging from the ceiling, Luffy and Rick saw a door in front of them, which had been stuck into the doorknob with a wooden stick and locked with chains. The door was written in bright red paint, "Don't open the door, there are zombies inside." ”

In such an environment, the red paint that fell along the handwriting made people feel an indescribable hideousness, and at the moment when they stood in front of the door, the locked door was slowly pushed. Luffy and Rick looked at the door being pushed in a cold sweat and took a few steps back. Through the overhead light, Luffy saw an arm covered in tooth marks peeking out of the crack in the door. Luffy raised a spirit, dragged Rick back.

At this time, the zombie behind the door seemed to smell the two of them, and began to vigorously push the locked door. The fierce beating heart in his chest made Luffy suddenly understand. Even though this is the world of TV dramas, but now that he is living in this world, he will be afraid, worried, and injured, and after being bitten by zombies, he will be infected.

"Bang", "Bang", the zombies locked behind the door began to bang on the door violently. But fortunately, there is a double safety on the door, and the zombies behind the door can't push the door open. When the zombie began to push the door vigorously, Luffy quickly dragged Rick backwards, and when Rick turned around, Luffy Yang strangely found that Rick's face was covered with sadness.

Turning to leave the gate, Luffy followed Rick to the elevator, but the elevator had already lost power, and the buttons on the floor did not reflect in the slightest. Luffy's eyesight was a little better, and when he saw that there was no light on the lights of the elevator buttons, he gave up the idea of taking the elevator and rushed straight to the small door attached to the fire escape.

After entering the door, the pitch-black fire escape made people feel uneasy. Luffy Yang panicked and said to Rick, "Sheriff Rick, where is the match you just found?" Quick, light the match and see if there's any of that! ”

Rick lit the match, and by the light of the match, Luffy could see the situation in the fire escape. It seems that no one has been passing here for a long time, the stairs are thick with dust, and the stairs under the stairs are an emergency exit. When Luffy Yang was holding on to the handrail and looking downstairs, Rick's seemed to be stimulated by the light of the match, and he suddenly felt a little dizzy.

Luffy Yang hurriedly pulled Rick by the hand, and after Rick stood firm, he hurriedly helped Rick down the stairs, changing lanes as he walked: "Let's go, let's go quickly, I don't know how long the door in the back will last!" Walk...... Let's do it! ”

As he helped Rick down the stairs, Luffy suddenly reacted. It seems that when my body was not so good before, was it? Although it is not to the extent of "virtuality", it is not strong enough to carry a foreign man downstairs! He thought to himself: Is this my golden finger? The body has become stronger! So his tone suddenly became excited.

So when he said the back, the match in Rick's hand happened to go out, and Luffy's voice suddenly froze. But fortunately, Luffy Yang immediately reacted, as a person who suddenly appeared, such an excited tone when zombies were rampant might make people suspicious, especially when his companion was a policeman, so he immediately changed the topic and said: "Sheriff Rick, quick, I'm lighting a match, I just seem to have seen an emergency exit below!" ”

As a police officer, Rick does have suspicions about Luffy Yang who suddenly appeared in his ward, but after seeing the bitten corpse in the corridor, the bullet holes on the wall, and the blood on the ground, he believes that something terrible has indeed happened in the hospital, whether there are real zombies or not, but it will definitely pose a threat to his life. It's not a 6th sense, it's judged by his experience as a police officer over the years.

Luffy, as a person of unknown origin, is a rare helper in this hospital that has become dangerous. Hearing Luffy's words, Rick also became excited, as long as he left this hospital, he would know what had happened to him. Rick quickly stretched out his trembling hands and lit a match.

Sure enough, after lighting a match, Rick also saw the emergency exit downstairs, and when he raised the match in his hand to look at the sign fixed to the wall above the emergency exit, he was so excited that he almost forgot that the light source in his hand was just a match. After this match burned out, he almost burned Rick's fingers, and when Rick looked up at the sign above his head, Luffy had already found the door to the emergency exit, and when the match went out, Luffy just pushed open the iron door.

The sudden sunlight that shone in made Luffy and Rick, who had already adapted to the darkness, feel extremely dazzling, and they quickly squinted their eyes and blocked the direct sunlight with their hands. The surroundings have been quiet, but through the door on the second floor, the sound of zombies banging on the door upstairs is still muffled, Luffy Yang and Rick are still more at ease, and they don't have to worry about being sneak attacked. With a blink, Luffy quickly adjusted to the sunlight outside and looked around.

But after seeing his surroundings clearly, Luffy Yang was stunned. He and Rick were standing on the stairs in the middle of the half-floor, and below was a small courtyard that could have been a place to park vehicles in the hospital. But now there is not a single car here, and the ground is full of objects covered with white cloth, judging from the blood on the white cloth and the hair that shows the white cloth, all these things on the ground are corpses, Luffy Yang glanced at these corpses roughly, but he was afraid that there were no less than hundreds.

However, there was a truck parked in the middle of the open space below, and all the corpses piled up behind the carriage. From childhood to adulthood, Luffy Yang has not seen as many dead people as he saw this time, corpses all over the ground, flies flying around, and white cloths stained with blood, this situation is not too exciting!

Rick, who had not yet adapted to the sun, was blindfolded, his hands in front of his eyes, blinking his eyes quickly, and secreting some tears after his eyeballs were stimulated by the light, and Rick was ready to pull this way and leave. But he didn't pull Luffy at once, but felt Luffy Yang tremble and keep staring downstairs.

Luffy's actions caught Rick's attention, and he followed Luffy's gaze downstairs. Looking at the corpses on the ground, remembering the familiar corpses in the hospital that had been bitten to the point of not being human, Rick showed an expression that wanted to cry but couldn't.

From a white-clothed, gnawed head, Rick recognized the dead woman as someone from the town, who he had seen before when he was on patrol, and he didn't think he was lying here now. Looking at the woman, and at the other white cloths on the ground, Rick easily remembered what those things were.

Looking at these corpses on the ground, Rick remembered his wife and children at home, the hospital was already full of corpses, and he didn't know what happened to his family. And now that I have injuries on my body, it would be nice if someone could give me a ride. So he turned to Luffy and said, "Lu, it doesn't matter if I call you Lu, right?" ”

Luffy shook his head and said, "It's okay, just call me Lu." ”

Listening to Luffy's words, Rick said, "That's good, road." I'm going back to my house now, what are you going to do? If you don't have a place to go, how about you accompany me home first? ”

Luffy Yang knew that the very haggard-looking sheriff in front of him was the protagonist of this TV series, and from the very beginning he made up his mind to follow Sheriff Rick around first, and after getting familiar with the situation, he was thinking about other things. Therefore, he agreed to Sheriff Rick's request without hesitation, and quietly changed his address to Sheriff Rick: "Rick, you know that. I'm not an imperialist, and I don't know why I suddenly appeared in your hospital room. However, it seems that the situation on your side is not very good right now, and it does not seem very safe to walk outside alone. I feel honored to be at your house. ”

Since it was certain that the two of them went to Rick's house together, the two of them didn't say anything and hurriedly walked down the stairs. Walking through the yard where the bodies were piled up, 2 people left the hospital. Climbing up the ramp from the yard where the parking lot was parked and leaving this parking lot, Luffy's eyesight improved a little and saw that on the ramp far from the parking lot, a dead adult pit bull was abandoned there, and its body was also covered with traces of human teeth.

Climbing up the ramp, Luffy almost froze again, but it was still Rick who was holding him, and he mechanically followed Rick. Military helicopters, trucks, and tents where soldiers were staying were all abandoned in the open space in front of the hospital, and empty oil drums, discarded wooden boxes for ammunition, blue body bags, and the blackened marks of flames on the hospital's exterior walls all indicate that there was a riot here.

Looking at the chaotic scene, Luffy Yang trembled and said to Rick, "Rick, is the US imperialist so messy?" And there is no one, isn't it too dangerous here? It's worse than South Africa! ”

Rick also looked very worried, but fortunately, after seeing Luffy's expression, Rick felt a wave of pleasure in his heart: this person is so weak, he is so easily frightened! And the American imperialists don't seem to have a strong sense of patriotism, and Rick is not annoyed as a policeman when he is said so. With such a contrast, Rick was not so nervous, although he was still worried about the situation at home, but he slowly calmed down and said, "No, something must have happened." will make the world like this, go, let's get out of here quickly. ”

Holding Rick, Luffy followed him out of front of the hospital. The road was quiet, not a single figure could be seen, and finally at an intersection, Luffy Yang was the first to find a bicycle that had fallen to the ground, and a half-cut corpse that had begun to decompose was lying there less than 2 meters away from the bicycle.
