6. Night
When Rick woke up from his coma at night, the first thing he saw was the curly-haired black kid with both hands clutching a baseball bat and staring at him. Next to the black kid was Luffy, and when Rick looked at Luffy, Luffy smiled apologetically at Rick.
That's when Rick realized that his hands and feet were tied to the bed. As he tried to move his hands and feet, his movements made the bed beneath him rattle. Then a voice came from his right: "We helped you change the bandages, the bandages on your body are very dirty. What is the wound on your body? ”
Rick turned his head and saw a black adult with very short hair, wearing a black plaid shirt, washing his hands. Seeing the black man looking at him, based on years of police experience, Rick judged that the adult black man in front of him was also a man with a story. He opened his mouth and whispered, "Gunshot wound." I was on a mission and was shot by a bandit and received a gunshot wound. ”
Hearing that it was a gunshot wound, the black William looked at Luffy, and after Rick saw the black man looking at Luffy, he also looked at Luffy, and the little black Dwayne looked at the two adults looking at Luffy, so he also looked at Luffy. Seeing that the eyes of the three people were all on him, Luffy stood up, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay, William." Didn't I tell you? Rick is a cop. ”
William, a black man, walked into Rick's tied bedside and said solemnly to Rick, "Do you have any other wounds besides gunshot wounds?" Such as scratches, bites? ”
Rick didn't pay attention to the scratches and bites that William said later, and he smiled wryly: "Isn't the gunshot wound bad enough?" ”
Listening to Rick's ridiculous tone, William took 2 steps closer and pointed at Rick angrily: "Listen, I ask, you answer." Quickly answer me, have you ever been bitten or scratched? ”
Seeing that William was a little angry, Luffy Yang hurriedly walked over, grabbed William's shoulders and said, "William, don't be impatient, since Rick has come to his senses, let's untie him!" I'll communicate with him about the rest of the matter. ”
Listening to Luffy's words, William reined in his temper, sat down on the bed, took out a sharp knife from behind him, and put it in front of Rick's eyes. "See how sharp this knife is?" If you do something stupid, I'll kill you with this. ”
With that, William cut the rope that bound Rick's limbs and let Rick go. After standing up, William said to Luffy, "Luther, I'll leave it to you here." ”
Then William beckoned to his son and said, "Let's go, Dwayne, let's go out!" They'll be here in a moment. ”
Watching the 2 black men walk out of the room, Rick rubbed his hands that were numb from being tied for too long, squinted at Luffy and said, "Lu, can you tell me what happened since I was unconscious?" Why are we with this murderer? ”
Luffy looked at Rick who was rubbing his hands, reached out to help him move his blood at his ankles, and said, "Call me Luther!" I always find it strange to hear you shout in English. ”
Although Rick rubbed his hands and moved his qi and blood, he didn't speak, just looking at Lu Feiyang who was moving his ankle qi and blood. After Luffy Yang looked up at the serious Rick, he also looked at Rick seriously and said, "That is not a murderer!" Yes, William is not a murderer, he saved your life! ”
Looking at Rick with a face full of disbelief, Luffy Yang nervously stuck out his tongue and licked his lips and said, "Rick, do you remember the locked door in the hospital?" Remember what it says? ”
"Don't open the door, there's a zombie inside?" Rick said in a questioning tone.
Luffy nodded and said, "Yes, zombies!" This afternoon, William killed a zombie. Just like when we went to push our bikes in the afternoon, the half-cut corpse was still moving. That's a zombie! William also killed zombies, and I've seen it, and the blood from the zombies who were shot in the head was actually black and sticky. In short, that's not what a normal person should have! Damn it! ”
As he spoke, Luffy became excited again. Seeing that some purposes could see Rick, Luffy took a deep breath, calmed his mood for a while, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I'm so excited!" ”
Looking at Luffy, who was still excited, Rick opened his mouth and didn't know what to say, and finally had to say dryly: "It's okay, I can understand." ”
After a while, Rick, who felt that his hands and feet were no longer so uncomfortable, draped the blanket on his body and walked out with Luffy, and in the living room, they saw William and his son cooking food. Looking at the father and son who were burning food with candles, Rick didn't walk over, but looked at the whole room with embarrassed eyes. Walking around the living room, Rick came to Luffy and William and said, "This is Fred and Cindy Drake's house. ”
After Luffy Yang and William's father and son looked at each other, they shook their heads at each other, and William then said, "I don't know!" Never seen before. ”
Rick shook his head as well, and said, "This is their house, I've been here." ”
Curiously looking at the window covered with sackcloth, Rick walked over and was about to untie the sackcloth. William shouted, "Don't do that, Rick! They're attracted to the light, and they're a lot more than usual, and I think maybe it was the afternoon when I shot them in! ”
With that, William walked over to the table and removed the small aluminum lunch box from the candle. Rick, on the other hand, was attracted by William's words and walked over as well. Luffy Yang comforted, "William, you can't be blamed for that!" You also shot to save Rick. ”
Picking up the candle, William blew out the candle in his hand, and said irritably: "It's stupid, I actually shot, it happened too fast, if I don't shoot, I can't do anything." But now we have to worry about them out there. ”
"Alright, sit down!" William said to Luffy and Rick. Little Dwayne didn't need his father to say it, he was already sitting in the chair. Dividing the melted chocolate in the lunch box among the four people, William said, "Let's have something to eat first!" ”
Luffy, who was already hungry, and Rick wanted to eat after sitting down, but little Dwayne squinted at Rick and interjected, "Dad, we haven't prayed today!" ”
Looking at Dwayne, who had already put his hands on the table, Luffy Yang learned from a few foreigners, stretched out his hand, and the four of them held each other's hands, Luffy Young and Rick watched the prayers of William and Dwayne's father and son.
After the prayer was over, the four resumed eating. However, it seems that William, who is black, has some special care for Rick, who is white, and when he was eating, William said to Rick: "Sheriff, how much do you know about the zombies outside?" ”
And Rick also seems to see that William, who is a black man, is not very smooth, although he has just passed Luffy's explanation, but after the spoon in his hand stays in the air, Rick bows his head and says, "Zombies? I don't understand, I came home from the hospital today, and then I was knocked on a stick by your son, and I saw you kill people in a daze, and I woke up here, zombies or something, I don't understand! ”
Little Dwayne with curly hair quickly interjected: "No, my dad didn't kill anyone, that's not a person!" ”
Luffy Yang also followed, "Rick, didn't I just say that?" William didn't kill anyone, it was a zombie! ”
Raising his hand to stop little Dwayne from speaking in a hurry, William said, "What do you think of the dead?" ”
"Dead people?" Rick glanced at Luffy and said, "The parking lot of the hospital, the truck, it's everywhere!" ”
"Those?" William shook his head and said, "It's not those, it's the dead who are still able to move." Those zombies! Like the one who got my headshot in front of your house! ”
Looking at Rick's confused look, William continued, "They're cannibals!" If it's your first time knowing about this, I'm sure you're confused, but we're not going to fool you with something so obvious! ”
Rick said confusedly, "They're all outside the house, aren't they?" ”
William seemed to be under a lot of pressure, and after Rick asked, he babbled, "Yes, those damn things are all outside, and sometimes they are more active at night, maybe because of the light and temperature. Damn, it's more likely that I shot this afternoon! ”
Perhaps because his father was a little annoying, little Dwayne pursed his lips and glanced at his father, but this glance was seen by Luffy, and he smiled sinisterly at Dwayne. Looking at Luffy's smile, Dwayne hurriedly lowered his head to eat.
Not paying attention to the little joke between his son and Luffy, William continued to say to Rick, "But as long as we keep quiet, it should be safe." As soon as it's morning, all the damn things out there will be gone. Now I'm going to say just one thing, one thing that is vital to everyone's lives: don't let those zombies bite! ”
Speaking of this, William glanced at the people around the table with a serious face before continuing: "Dwayne only knocked you out when he saw the bandages on your body, we thought you were bitten!" After being bitten by those things, you will soon have a fever and then brain death, but after a while, you will come back to life, but at this point, you will become those things out there. ”
Listening to William's words, Rick still didn't quite believe it. But Luffy Yang will not disbelieve it, the legend of zombies, in Luffy's world, it is "a mouthful of eternity, zombies will be passed on forever"! Games, movies, TV series, I have heard and watched a lot of information about zombies.
Looking at Rick, who didn't respond, Dwayne Jr. said, "I saw it with my own eyes." ”
Hearing this, Luffy Yang and Rick both looked at Little Dwayne, and seeing his sad face, Luffy Yang reacted, it must have been him who saw his relatives turn into zombies, so he said so. And now there are only two fathers and sons living in this house, maybe little Dwayne has seen his mother turn into a zombie.
Thinking of this, Luffy Yang reached out and touched little Dwayne's curly head, and at this time, William also patted little Dwayne on the shoulder and comforted him silently. Looking at little Dwayne with a strong face, Luffy nodded towards William.
The sad atmosphere made the 4 people have no desire to speak, and after eating, the 4 people slept in the living room. After a long time, the four of them began to chat softly again. But suddenly the anti-theft bell of the car came from outside the house, startling everyone, William quickly hugged little Dwayne in his arms and said, "Don't be afraid, Dad is here!" ”
Looking at Luffy and Rick, William said, "It should be that one of the zombies touched the car on the side of the road." This has happened before, and after a while, the zombies are gone. ”
Luffy Yang came to the window and was about to uncover the corner of the sackcloth, when William hurriedly said, "Luther, you wait first!" Dwayne, turn off the lights! ”
Listening to William's words, Dwayne Jr. and Rick both went to turn off the lights. After watching the lights go out, Luffy Yang lifted the corner of the linen cloth on the window and looked outside.
Sure enough, it was a car on the street that was touched by a zombie, so it rang. While the four of them were huddled behind the window and looking at the street, little Dwayne's mother, turned zombie, suddenly came out from behind a tree.
