Chapter 159: Travel
Manhattan Island, New York, USA, at the intersection of Third Avenue and 36th Street, in a 50-story office building on the side of the road.
The room by the window on the east side of the forty-eighth floor, a large room with an area of more than two hundred square meters, is very empty, except for some decoration materials piled up in the middle, the rest is empty, this room seems to be being renovated when the end of the world erupts, so it will be like this.
When!
The sound of cans falling to the ground is particularly loud in an empty room.
Standing by the east window, Zac couldn't help but put down his binoculars and turned his head to look at the southeast corner of the room, where there were cigarette butts and flattened cans, and a woman with messy hair was sitting in the corner, a half-burned cigarette in her mouth, and her face was haggard looking up at the ceiling.
It's Monica.
Syllable...... Yikes!
Monica opened a can again, and the foam of beer came out of the opening, and Monica took the cigarette off her mouth with one hand, did not extinguish it, and threw it out, first sucked the foam with her mouth, and then raised her head and poured a sip of beer into her mouth.
"Drinking and making mistakes! I advise you to drink less, and to act in the evening. A deep voice came from Monica's west side, implying a warning.
"Uh...... Don't worry......" Monica burped, glanced to her west, and said in a voice unhurriedly, "I won't drag you down if I die." ”
On the west side of Monica, in the southwest corner of the large room, the tall and stout Will sat on a low stool, holding a pistol and wiping it down, and on the ground in front of him, there were more than a dozen guns of all kinds, as well as some parts of firearms.
"I didn't expect a woman like you to do this!" After the room was quiet for a while, Will suddenly shook his head and laughed sarcastically as he wiped his gun.
"Take care of yourself, your butt hasn't been wiped clean, don't come over to lecture me." Monica said in a mocking tone, raised her head to drink the beer in the can, squeaked the can in her hand flat, and threw it on the ground.
"She's out, it's this time again." Shack, who was standing by the window with a telescope, suddenly spoke.
The person he was talking about was naturally Hillary, and the straight-line distance from the United Nations headquarters was about six or seven hundred meters, and she could see the situation inside the United Nations headquarters with a telescope.
Sitting in the corner, Will glanced up at his watch, which showed the time at one o'clock in the afternoon, so it could be assumed that Hillary had just had lunch.
"She's still so many guards?" Will asked casually.
"Again, thirty-five." Zac gave the numbers quickly and accurately.
"Oh, huh...... This bitch is really scared to death. Will smiled slightly disdainfully and shook his head slightly.
"Don Ji is out." It didn't take long for Sack to suddenly speak quickly.
Will and Monica looked up at the same time, stood up at the same time, quickly ran to the window, picked up their binoculars and looked out.
They all know that Don Ji has hardly left the building, and it is very difficult to see him come out, since Tang Ji moved into the library four days ago, several people's hearts have been hanging, especially Monica, whose thoughts are extremely complicated, because Tang Ji knows who they are and knows their physical characteristics, once Tang Ji tells Hillary about this, then Will and the others will be in danger, and if they don't make a move, they will be directly exposed, and they will not be able to evacuate safely.
But a few days have passed, and the other party has not moved, and there is no special arrangement as usual, which makes several people breathe a sigh of relief.
In the telescope, many survivors in the United Nations headquarters are busy in the field, and Tang Ji walked unhurriedly in the direction of the exit of the United Nations headquarters under the protection of five or six guards, and it can be seen that the injury on his leg has been much better, at least there is no problem with walking.
Monica looked at it for a while, then took the telescope away slightly, and swept her eyes at the two people around her, Sack still maintained an observing posture, and Will seemed to feel Monica's gaze, took off the telescope and glanced at Monica, her expression froze slightly, but she didn't say anything, and picked up the telescope again.
He knew why Monica looked at him, the two had always had a big disagreement on whether Don Guy should be killed, so there was a conflict, but in the end, Will temporarily made concessions, because if he wanted to complete his revenge plan, Monica's cooperation was indispensable, Monica had the ability, and it was a woman with unique advantages, which could not be replaced by Will and Zac.
After all, their ultimate goal is Hillary, and the reason why Don Guy is a threat is that he is a doctor, and if Hillary is attacked and injured but not dead, then Don Guy is likely to save her, and the other is that Don Guy may expose the three of them at any time.
They can't guess Tang Ji's mind at all, in terms of IQ, they are definitely not as high as Tang Ji, and people's minds will change, Tang Ji may change his original mind at any time and for what reason, no one can guarantee whether Tang Ji will change, so getting rid of Tang Ji is obviously the most direct and effective means.
The reason why Will will compromise is not only because he can still use Monica, but also because Tang Ji is indeed a little difficult to kill, and he has been hiding and rarely comes out, if he really has the opportunity, Will can't guarantee that he will not kill Tang Ji.
On the road outside the United Nations headquarters, the sound of machinery roars, trailer cranes are busy nervously, the "container wall" is still under construction, in the final plan formulated by Clinton, the "container wall" is set as a double layer, that is, the number of containers used will be doubled, of course, the height of the wall will naturally be doubled, about four meters and a half, which will make the United Nations headquarters safer, but also the workload has increased a lot.
Outside the United Nations headquarters, not far from the crossroads, there was a German MAN heavy truck, two Mercedes-Benz bulletproof off-road vehicles, and two Ford pickup trucks, a total of five vehicles formed a small convoy, all five vehicles were loaded, steel plates were installed, and heavy machine guns were mounted on the roof of the Ford pickup truck.
Under the protection of the guards, Tangji came to the front of the convoy at the intersection and boarded the modified heavy truck, then the doors closed, several cars were full, and the convoy set off.
In the back box of the heavy truck, the lights are bright, Hillary is sitting in the innermost position, with a seat belt on her body, Tang Ji said hello when he came in, and then the two stopped talking, in addition to the two of them, there are ** fully armed guards, sitting on the left and right sides of the carriage.
After Tang Ji entered the carriage, he has been observing the layout here, the layout is very simple, the innermost and both sides are seats and some auxiliary safety configurations, in the middle of the carriage, a long row, but it is a weapon rack, that weapon rack has a lot of pre-apocalyptic American controlled weapons, automatic rifles, light and heavy machine guns...... There are even shoulder-mounted bazookas, these things are easy for ordinary people to see before the end of the world, but they can't get it, but they can't be found after the end of the world, there are many places where you can find them, such as the gang's arms depots, police stations, or military bases, and Gafenas Island, which is very close to Manhattan Island, was a military base before the end of the world.
There are a lot of places like this, of course, if you think about it in another way, these things are available, but you also have to be able to get them.
"American-made Bazooka 60 mm portable rocket launcher, length 1370 mm, weight 5.8 kg, muzzle velocity 81 meters per second, direct range 100 meters, maximum range 370 meters, armor-piercing thickness 76 mm...... I got it on Gaphnas Island, I was supposed to look for a warship, but I went late, and I don't know if the surviving soldiers withdrew or if someone got there first, but we were in a hurry, and we still found something. Hillary Clinton saw that Don Ji was looking at the bazooka on the weapon rack, and after a pause, she explained.
Now the relationship between the two has become very strange, since yesterday at noon Don Ji told part of the truth, it is like this, and he can't talk eagerly when they meet, Don Ji has become a lot silent, if Hillary doesn't speak, Don Ji will definitely not speak.
On the street, a Mercedes-Benz bulletproof car is driving in front, another is at the end, there are two pickup trucks on the left and right, and four cars are guarding the modified center truck, and the convoy is not fast or slow to drive towards the west coast of Manhattan Island, because the truck is loaded with very thick steel plates, although the defense has increased a lot, but the burden of the empty car has also become extremely heavy, and it is impossible to drive too fast.
The pavement of the main street is very smooth, there are no abandoned cars, there are no zombie corpses, and it is obvious that it has been cleaned up, so several cars are driving smoothly.
………………
"What are they going to do?"
In the office building at the intersection of Third Avenue and 36th Street, Will, who was standing by the window with a telescope, muttered, then decisively dropped the telescope, turned around and ran to the corner, picked up the backpack on the side of the stool and carried it on his back, and pulled a large worn canvas placed aside to cover the gun on the ground, and turned his head and shouted: "Quick, let's follow, maybe there is a chance to kill this bitch." ”
For Hillary, the attitude of several people is exactly the same, they all want to kill her quickly, so after Sark followed, Monica did not hesitate, although she drank some beer, but her good alcohol can be said to be outrageous, this is something she must exercise to be a killer, so in the state, she has no problem at all.
Will rushed out of the big room with the two of them with his bag, entered the corridor and quickly ran to the elevator entrance, there was no electricity, the elevator indicator light was not on, and the door was closed, Will took out the hunting knife and inserted it into the gap between the two doors, and then he put away the hunting knife and quickly opened the door with both hands,
There is no elevator inside the door, and there are only a few steel cables inside the empty elevator shaft.
Several people quickly took out the extremely thick characteristic gloves from their jacket pockets, and after putting on the gloves, Will was the first to jump into the elevator shaft, grabbed the tightrope, and slid down, and the next two, Sack and Monica, also jumped in, and also grabbed the tightrope......
………………
At the end of 48th Street in Manhattan Island is the west shore of Manhattan Island, where there is a wharf, which is the place to unload containers, and it is still busy here, more than 100 people are either directing or working on various mechanical vehicles, and everywhere is filled with the roar of machinery, a busy scene.
The speed of unloading the container is not fast, after all, there are not as many giant machinery and equipment as New York Harbor, and the people here are not all professional, most of them are in contact with it for the first time, and they can't be fast if they want to.
The convoy was driving on 48th Street, about fifty meters from the pier, and then stopped, and it was difficult to move forward, because there were all kinds of busy vehicles in front of them, and any further progress would affect their work.
Don Ji and Hillary got out of the car side by side, and walked quickly towards the dock under the protection of more than forty guards, in this kind of fast walking, it can be seen that Don Guy's legs are not completely good, and the walking movement is very awkward, Hillary can't help but hold Don Kid, Don Ji glanced at her, and said nothing.
Soon a group of people walked to the carriageway outside the dock, and on the carriageway closest to the sea, the ground was covered with blood, and a container overturned on that road, and a forklift was smashed, so the container was high on one side and low on the other.
Under the container, there were two corpses, both of which were half of their bodies, not long after the person died, blood was flowing everywhere, not far from the container, three injured men sat on the ground, covering their wounds and looking pale, and on the overturned forklift, in the position of the cab, there was an injured person sitting on it, his face was pale, his body was squeezed, and something similar to a steel rod was inserted into his body.
Obviously, there was an accident, and in one sentence it can be summed up as "two people died, many were injured, one of them seriously".
When Hillary and Tang Ji were still more than ten meters away from the accident site, another man hurriedly ran to Hillary's vicinity, stood outside the guard circle and said quickly: "Boss...... The crane's steel cable broke...... There were three minor injuries over there, and one seriously injured one, stuck in the forklift, we didn't dare to move, there was something in his body, very close to his heart. ”
This is the reason why Don Kei will come out, the injured can't leave the scene of the accident, so Don Kei must rush over to carry out treatment, and there is an accident here, Hillary obviously needs to come to check, so the two came in the same car.
The guards opened the large parasol and covered the forklift, and Tang Ji climbed into the forklift with the help of the others, and began to check the other party's injuries while whispering comfort to the injured person's emotions.
The injury is not light, the biggest danger comes from the iron rod close to the heart, and the other bodies that are caught are still trivial, and they will not hurt the surname, but they may be disabled.
In addition to some surgical instruments, Tang Ji also asked the guards under the car for necessary instruments such as steel bar shears, because the space was limited, so he could only work on it alone.
If someone is injured, they must be saved, if there is a doctor but they don't save it, the impact will be extremely bad, as a woman, it is extremely difficult for Hillary to rule her subordinates, what should be done must be done, and she can't let her subordinates feel cold.
Thirty minutes later, Hillary left, she still had a lot to do, the situation has been seen, it is impossible to stay here all the time, she left in the modified heavy truck, and also took a pickup truck and bulletproof off-road vehicle, leaving two for Donji.
The operation lasted for a full hour, and Tang Ji was at least seventy percent sure before he pulled the steel rod out of the injured man, and then, with the cooperation of others, removed the overturned container, pried the deformed forklift open, and dragged the injured person out.
Tang Ji operated on him again, and twenty minutes later, the injured who were unconscious due to anesthesia were carried away, and Tang Ji briefly treated the wounds of the other three minor injuries, they were not seriously injured, they were all scratches caused when they hid in the container, and this kind of injury could have been handled by others, but since Tang Ji was here, of course he would have shown them.
At about 3:30 p.m., Tang Ji got on a bulletproof Mercedes-Benz off-road and headed for the United Nations headquarters under the escort of a modified armed pickup truck.
In the moving off-road vehicle, there are only two rows of seats, because the small curtains on the windows are drawn, so the car looks a little dim, Tang Ji is sitting expressionlessly on the seat on the right side of the back, is closing his eyes to recuperate, on the seat next to him, there is a black strong man with a height of one meter nine and the size is not inferior to Will, this black man's name is Gaito, and he is the strongest guard sent by Hillary to protect Tang Ji.
Of course, a person's strength cannot be manifested only in size, but body type always represents a part of strength, Gaito's comprehensive strength is very strong, and there are not many such people around Hillary, some of them are still core personnel, but because they are worried about Tang Ji's safety, they are still sent to Tang Ji.
For Hillary, Don Guy's safety is now more important!
The two cars drove fast for a short time, and Tang Ji in the car opened his eyes, he looked a little tired, twisted slightly, and reached out to open the car refrigerator in the car, the refrigerator was very small, there were not many things in it, it was all drinks.
Don Ji took out a can of Coke from it, opened it and took a few sips, then held it with one hand, and slightly picked up the curtain on the window with the other, the curtain revealed a gap, and Don Ji looked out, full of scenes of ruined cities.
Suddenly, his body moved, as if he was a little uncomfortable, his hand lowered the curtain, and touched behind him, and soon, he took out a pen, and I don't know who threw it on the car.
Tang Ji's fingers began to move subconsciously and casually, and the pen magically began to turn in his hand, which was enough to dazzle, he used to play with a scalpel like this, but now it has been replaced by a pen, it doesn't seem to be a big problem.
He took the Coke in his other hand and took another sip of it, then shook the Coke can slightly, it seemed that it was gone, he stretched out his hand and was going to throw away the Coke can, but suddenly he took it back, first put the Coke can on his lap, then removed the cap of the pen in his hand, and picked up the Coke can again.
Holding a pen in one hand and an empty Coke can in the other, Tang Ji began to draw randomly on the Coke can, not words, but some chaotic-looking patterns.
He seemed bored.
The two cars kept moving, and they had already driven about 1.5 kilometers, and they were still seven or eight hundred meters away from the United Nations headquarters.
"Stop!" Tang Ji in the car suddenly shouted. (To be continued.) )
