Chapter 26: The Gunslinger and the Doctor

Large supermarkets like Walmart are sure to have indoor fire hydrants inside them, and they're easy to find.

On the second floor, Jason quickly dragged the hose water gun connected to the fire hydrant, Christine ran to open the valve again, Jason Bowen and the two people held the high-pressure water gun and stretched out the window, and more than a dozen fires outside the supermarket were quickly extinguished, and the high-pressure water column also knocked away many zombies.

Don Ji and the others quickly reached the second floor, Robbie collapsed directly to the ground, leaning against the shelves and shaking his head, Don Ji ran to the window and looked out, made sure that the fire was extinguished, and patted Jason's shoulder, who had been called back and forth by him.

"Jason, that's a great job!"

Jason is young and strong, looks thin, but his physical strength is really not comparable to others, and there are no hip-hop dancers who are in bad health, and those who can work hard, Jason can be said to be the most tired one.

"It's okay, Don ......" Jason gasped and dropped the water gun in his hand, smiled, his dark face showed a mouthful of white teeth, he paused and frowned slightly, and said solemnly: "Don, ask you a question." ”

"What?" Tang Ji pinched his waist and gasped slightly, turned his head to look at Robbie who was sitting on the ground not far away, and then turned his head to look at Jason and asked.

"Why is it bad to extinguish fires and burn them?" Jason didn't seem to understand, there were tens of thousands of zombies outside, all of them were very close, and these fires were likely to burn them to death in pieces.

"We could be burned to death." Don Ji looked at Jason with the eyes of Are You an Idiot and explained: "Walmart uses a lot of floor-to-ceiling window structures on the outside, and the glass will explode if it is burned for a long time, and when the zombies rush in, the entire supermarket will be set on fire, and we will either be eaten or burned to death." After Tang Ji finished speaking, he suddenly felt that although Jason was a little lively, and his head sometimes couldn't turn around, he was definitely a person who could be trusted, because he obviously had doubts about extinguishing the fire in his heart, but he still did it first and then asked.

"Got it." Jason pointed to his head and nodded, "Don't look at me like that, I understand, just ...... Didn't figure it out just now. Jason pursed his lips helplessly, and Laura looked at her nephew and laughed.

"Auntie......" Jason rolled his eyes at Laura.

"Don't laugh, haha......" Laura laughed as she leaned on Old Mike's back, her nephew was so funny sometimes.

"Let's pack up and get out of the window!" Mike also smiled at the corner of his mouth, closed a window, kicked the bullet casings all over the ground with his foot, picked up two guns and a cloth belt with bullets, and greeted Laura and walked towards the supermarket.

Soon, the windows were closed, and everyone else left, leaving only Don Quey, who was standing by the window and looking out, and Robbie, who was sitting against the shelves not far away.

Robbie sat on the ground for a few moments before staggering to his feet and limping to Don Guy.

"Doctor ......"

"You're so uncool." Don Guy turned his head to look at Robbie, his gaze calm.

"That's right...... I...... Impulsive. Robbie tried to explain something intermittently, but in the end he only said, "I apologize to you!" ”

"I accept!" Don Ji looked at Robbie for a long time, slowly pulled a smile at the corner of his mouth, and immediately retracted, Robbie is indeed too impulsive in Tang Ji's opinion, but he can not bear the miserable consequences after being impulsive, because he is very capable, and he knows how to admit mistakes, which Tang Ji is a little relieved to do, and he did not save him in vain.

"How's the injury, have you ever been bitten or scratched by a zombie?" Tang Ji looked at Robbie's miserable appearance, and glanced at Robbie slightly, Robbie was covered in blood and couldn't see what the injury had become.

"I haven't been scratched or bruised...... A lot, the wound may have touched the zombie blood, and I may become a zombie in a short time, who knows? Also, I just fell on my left leg, and I don't know if the injury hurt my bones. Robbie ripped off his coat when he spoke, the tight white vest inside was completely stained red, and there were a lot of small abrasions on his arms, which were not very serious, just a little blood, but he may have been stained with zombie blood, but it was not 100% infected, and the survivors who survived after the end of the world have produced virus antibodies in their bodies, immune to viruses in the air, that is, survivors are completely immune to slight toxins and can heal themselves, Robbie has no major wounds, So it's hard to say whether it's infected or not.

"That's why you're back?" Tang Ji suddenly figured it out, he didn't understand why Robbie came back even if he didn't die outside? The number of zombies outside Walmart is outrageous, it is always dangerous to come back, Robbie has no reason to take this risk, as long as he is careful with his skills, the chance of one person leaving the city is very high, and it is even much easier than multiple people, after all, there are many people and a big goal.

"That's right, you're a doctor, you've saved me more than once, and I think this time might be no different...... I hope God hasn't taken me away so many times, and I don't think it will be right this time. Robbie patted Don Ji on the shoulder and said seriously, "I trust you, doctor!" ”

"Let's find a place to take care of the wound!"

Tang Ji helped Robbie, who was limping, to the southwest corner of the third floor of the supermarket, where medical supplies and medicines were sold, most of which were common at home, not much used in hospitals, and even fewer prescription drugs. ”

Tang Ji carefully examined Robbie's body, there were thirteen abrasions all over the body, the most serious one was in the back, for Robbie's leg injury Tang Ji could only observe it from the outside, there was redness and swelling at the joints, as for whether the bones and joints were really seriously injured, Tang Ji couldn't check it, because there was no equipment.

"There are a lot of wounds, and theoretically there is a high chance of infection, but you are always wearing clothes, and there are only two or three places where you can touch the blood from the outside world, and it is only abrasions, so you don't have to worry too much, other than that, the only problem is your legs, which need to rest for at least a week." Don Ji said while rinsing Robbie's wound, using all disinfectant water, Robbie was naked-standing against the wall, there was a trace of embarrassment, men were not embarrassed to see each other naked in the public bathroom, it was embarrassing to change any other place, Don Ji was very calm, he had seen too much, according to his estimates, he saw more naked men than naked women, no way, his job is like this.

Half an hour later.

In the center of the second floor of the Walmart supermarket, in the vacant space vacated by moving the shelves, Robbie changed into new clothes and was tied to a chair. This is just in case, Robbie is not sure whether he is infected with Tang Ji, so he can only tie it up and wait until the time of the zombie mutation is exceeded before letting go, this is Robbie's own request, originally Tang Ji planned to let people look at him, but Robbie insisted on it.

Night soon sets in, and darkness envelops the once-brightly lit metropolis of New York.

All the lights in the supermarket are turned off, after all, the supermarket is different from other ordinary residences, if the lights are lit, the whole supermarket is brightly lit, and it is too conspicuous in the dark city, and it will definitely attract the attention of zombies.

There is a faint light on the second floor of the supermarket out of the window, these lights are from a small table lamp, according to Tang Ji's words, it is forbidden to use a flashlight, because the light of the flashlight is a bundle, and it will shine out of the window if you are not careful, and zombies are very easy to be attracted by this light, so if everyone wants to illuminate, they use table lamps.

"Hey, dude, why don't you speak?" Jason rode his bike around Robbie, who was tied to a chair, and he had been bothering Robbie for a long time, and Robbie closed his eyes impatiently.

"Dude, what did you do before? I heard that you have good marksmanship......"

"Dude, you're not lightly injured, dare to kill in and out of the zombie group, cool!"

"Hi dude......"

Jason is sometimes annoying and annoying, he may be just too boring to talk about. Robbie closed his eyes without saying a word, only felt the flies buzzing in his ears, and he regretted it a little, he really shouldn't have asked to tie himself up, listening to this endless nagging.

"Jason, don't mess with him, he'll kill you when I let him go!" Don Guy's voice came over the intercom around Jason's waist, and Jason turned his head to look at the end of the shelf, only to see Don Guy and Maniela walking over.

"Congratulations Robbie, it's time!" Don Guy walked to Robbie's side, looked down at his watch to reconfirm, and then bent down to untie the rope for Robbie, who opened his eyes and smiled.

"You're not leaving?" Maniela pressed her index finger to her lips and pinched her chin with her thumb, and said to Jason with a low laugh, at which time Robbie also turned his gaze to Jason very cooperatively, and his eyes widened with a very murderous look.

"That...... I'll go first, you guys talk ......" Jason swallowed and ran away on his bike rather awkwardly.

The rope was all untied, Robbie stood up and moved his upper body, and Don Ji handed Robbie a crutch and explained to Jason in a low voice: "Jason is not malicious, he is just ...... It's so lively. As he spoke, Tang Ji shrugged his shoulders and looked quite helpless.

"I understand!"

At about ten o'clock in the evening, on the second floor of the supermarket, everyone moved some mattresses from the third floor and made several beds in the open space. There was originally a staff lounge in the supermarket, but it was too small for everyone to get together, and when it was time to sleep at night, it was obviously not appropriate to separate, and if there was really any danger, it was inconvenient to deal with it.

After that, Tang Ji and the others went to the sales area where trinkets were sold and took some bells, wind chimes and other things, strung them together with ropes, connected one shelf after another, and surrounded the area where they slept, so that no zombies could approach them quietly.

Nothing was said all night.

The next morning, the sun rose as usual, and the city was a little more alive, but the zombies that could be seen also cast a haze of death over the city.

Before everyone was about to disperse, Don Ji stopped everyone, and everyone stopped and sat together.

"Today we would like to officially introduce our new friend, Robbie!" Don Ji pointed at Robbie and said.

Smack!

Jason slapped his palm twice, and when he saw that no one else moved, he put down his hand in embarrassment.

"Introduce yourself, be detailed, we've all said it!" Tang Ji looked at Robbie and said, "They know that I am an underground doctor, you can say anything, it's best not to hide it." ”

Robbie nodded, glanced at the crowd, he didn't seem used to speaking to a group of people in such an equal way, cleared his throat, and said: "My name is Robbie, I am twenty-eight years old, born in rural New Jersey, I didn't go to college, I joined the army at the age of eighteen, I participated in the Iraq War, I was wounded, I received a Silver Star and a Purple Heart, I returned to the United States in 2010 when the combat troops withdrew from Iraq, and I shot a total of twenty-three enemies on the battlefield, I was 23 years old that year, and I applied for discharge, I suffered from post-war psychological syndrome, I felt a lot of pressure, and I often acted aggressively, so I came to New York in 2011, joined the gang, became a gangster, and until the end of the world, I was in the gang, and that's how I met the doctor. ”

"That's all." Robbie finished and looked at the others.

"He's got a very good marksmanship, one of the best I've ever seen." Don Guy shrugged his shoulders and added a word for Robbie.
