Chapter 37: The Rooftop
The roars of the zombies downstairs are getting closer.
Tang Ji and the others breathed violently, and ran upstairs frantically, Laura and Old Mike were a little old, but Old Mike was in good health, and he pulled Laura with Jason, but he was not left behind.
Everyone didn't think about fighting back, they would do this only after being kicked in the head by a donkey, and the zombies couldn't be killed at all, so they could only run upstairs with a violent breath.
Soon everyone entered the seventh floor, because the stairs to the rooftop are not connected to other stairs, so Tang Ji and the others have to pass through the entire corridor on the seventh floor, which is not very long, about thirty meters, running and running Tang Ji suddenly paused, his eyes looked at the room next to the corridor, it was the room facing the street, the door was open, and there were four corpses scattered inside, three of which were women, naked and obviously abused and annihilated before their deaths, the one against the wall was still shot in the head by a shotgun, and the remaining one was a male surname, The physique was still quite strong, and he was not clothed, and he was shot in the temple, and he was lying next to the woman who was shot in the head, and part of the body of the two was still entangled.
There were several pools of blood on the ground, and the smell of blood was strong.
Tang Ji vaguely guessed something, the gunshots from the upper floor must have come from this room, he glanced at it, only paused, and continued to run in the direction of the staircase on the roof.
Roar!
A particularly sturdy zombie went up to the seventh floor and quickly approached in the direction of Tang Ji and the others, and behind it, a large group of zombies rushed up!
"Hurry, hurry, hurry!"
Tang Ji stumbled up the stairs, his eyes glanced unnaturally in the direction of the corridor, and shouted in his mouth, the door of the rooftop was open, he passed through the iron gate and went up to the rooftop first, and suddenly saw that at the northernmost edge of the rooftop, there was a ladder seven or eight meters long, which was connected to the rooftop of the building on the north side of the building, and a man was walking cautiously over it, and he had walked most of it.
Don Guy knew this man, he was one of Brooke's men, and on the roof of the opposite building, Brooke and his other men were running towards the north, and there was another building on the north side of that building, and the two were about six or seven meters apart, and Tang Ji could vaguely see that there was also a long ladder between the two.
Don Ji understood that Brooke had already found a way back for himself, and these ladders had been put in place a long time ago, so that he could escape in the event of an accident.
It seems that this road can also be an escape route for Tang Ji and others.
After Tang Ji entered the rooftop, the others also quickly came up, the old strong man walked at the end, and even held his sixteen-year-old daughter in his arms, so old, but the young man in good health could not look at his back, her daughter looked very frail, and she had been very frightened.
Boom!
Everyone went up to the rooftop, the iron door of the rooftop staircase was closed, and they all saw the situation on the north side of the roof, and at this time, the last of Brooke's men had carefully walked through the ladder completely, and when they reached the opposite rooftop, he heard the sound behind him, glanced back at Tang Ji and the others, twisted his head and ran forward for a moment, paused, and immediately turned back again.
"Holy!"
Bang bang bang!
Don Ji realized that it was not good to scream, and fired several shots in that direction, but it was too late, the man kicked the ladder off the rails with a sharp kick, and the part of the ladder on the edge of the building where he was suddenly broke away from the rooftop, and the whole ladder suddenly fell from the gap between the two buildings, and Tang Ji was more than fifty meters away from the man, the bullets were flying, and Tang Ji was not a sharpshooter, so he did not hit the other party.
"Bitches, all die!" The man didn't forget to curse Don Ji and the others before running towards Brooke.
At this time, the iron door of the rooftop began to shake violently, accompanied by the sound of being struck with a bang.
Jason, Maniela, the old strong man and others huddled together against the door, but it looked very weak, the number of zombies pouring in was more than Tang Ji imagined, and although the iron door was strong, the door lock was not good, it belonged to the kind of mortise lock, the structure that inserted the door was only two fingers wide, although it was metal, but the entire structure of the lock would be damaged under the continuous impact of the zombies, and it would not be able to withstand the door by people when the time came.
Tang Ji had no choice but to take people to the rooftop just now, but at this time, it was obvious that the rooftop was not safe, and the ladder that allowed Tang Ji and the others to escape was also kicked off.
"God, what did he do?" Laura saw the scene where the man kicked off the ladder, and immediately understood what was at stake, and while breathing heavily, she covered her mouth with her hands and shouted at the sky.
The man on the opposite rooftop ran a few steps, looked back at Tang Ji and the others, and suddenly stretched out his right hand and raised his middle finger at Tang Ji and the others, grinning.
Obvious taunting.
Robbie didn't want to move him, the ladder had been kicked off, and killing him wouldn't change the result, and now it was the right thing to find a way to solve the problem of the zombies in his building, but this kid was a little too annoying, and he angered Robbie.
"Give me the gun!"
Robbie said, threw away his favorite pistol, took an M16 assault rifle from Christine's hand, took two steps forward and raised it in front of him, motionless, the wind on the roof was a little strong, he was aiming.
The man on the opposite floor was a little panicked all of a sudden, the effective range of the assault rifle is usually about hundreds of meters, and the effective range of the M16 is six hundred meters, the man didn't know how Robbie's marksmanship was, but he still accelerated his speed and ran in the direction of Brooke, Brooke and the other three people around him were crossing the ladder, and two of them had already passed,
In about three seconds, Robbie was one hundred and fifty meters away from the man on the opposite floor.
Bang! A gunshot rang out.
Poof!
The man rolled and fell out, then lay on the ground and convulsed twice, then stopped moving.
"Chop!" Robbie muttered calmly, without the slightest joy of successfully shooting the other party, returned the gun to Christine, took two steps and bent down to pick up the pistol he had just dropped.
The time has not been very long, and Jason and the others have slowed down the destruction of the lock by the zombies inside the door, but the door is still shaking very strongly, and it is estimated that it will not last long.
Old Mike suddenly ran over, he found a discarded wooden stick on the rooftop, the thickness of his arm, directly obliquely on the door, the so-called column top jack, the situation is different but the reason is the same, the stable surname of this wooden stick top door is stronger than Jason and the three together, and the others found some things on the rooftop, bricks, plastic pipes, wooden sticks, broken chairs and other things, it is estimated that they were thrown by the residents of this building before the end of the world, and they were all blocked at the iron door.
The crowd was completely silent and slowly retreated.
Zombies have a very poor memory, and if there is no sound or moving object to attract them for a certain period of time, they will lose their target, so as to stop their "predator" activities, that is, as long as Tang Ji and others are completely silent on the rooftop, away from the iron door, it is estimated that after two or three minutes, no more than four minutes at most, they will stop banging on the door.
The key question is whether that door will last that long.
