Chapter 270: Why Are They Coming?
The moonlight is shining.
Inside the huge dimly lit courtyard, there was a haze and silence.
Squeak!
Squeak!
The crunch of dry leaves breaking broke the silence of the night.
Outside the courtyard, one after another thin bodies swayed out of the dark forest, wandering in the moonlight, seemingly aimless, but gradually approaching the huge courtyard, their filthy bodies exuding a foul smell, and their hideous heads were raised from time to time, looking at the moonlight, as if they were distracted.
They don't like the moonlight, they like the sun, they like the sun, but now it's night, they can't feel the warmth of the sun, they can't feel the scorching heat, their instincts should drive them to be depressed, but this night, they are extraordinary.
On the east side of the huge courtyard, in the three-story villa, in the living room, men and women gathered together, looking at the big screen on the wall, feeling palpitations.
Zombies, a lot of zombies, all outside, at the beginning there was only one camera that could monitor the figure of the zombie, but in just a few minutes, so the cameras outside could monitor the figure of the zombies, they were wearing tattered clothes, like walking corpses, slowly gathered in front of the barbed wire fence of the courtyard outside, at this time it seems that there are as many as four or five hundred, but the number continues to increase, the dark forest is like a bottomless pit, I don't know how many zombies will be spit out.
Today is the eve of Halloween, this night is Halloween night, Halloween, which can also be called Halloween, but I didn't expect that the "ghost" really came......
Dressed as a Titan, Jon took off the mask on his face and threw it on the sofa, brushed his black and white hair, and turned his head to count the number of people in the living room.
“1、2、3、4、5…… 17, all of them are there. After counting in a low voice to make sure everyone was there, Jon raised his voice and said, "They are coming, not like they have found us." ”
"Why are they surrounding us?" Christine asked rhetorically, looking at the screen.
"It may be some kind of Xi surname, they want to get together, but the existence of this courtyard prevents them from getting together, it may be so." Jason answered, looking at the screen.
"Is the window closed up there?" Robbie stood aside with Sarah's shoulders in his arms, and suddenly as if he had thought of something, he raised his hand and pointed upstairs and asked.
"It's off!"
"Yes!"
Most of them nodded, and a few people confirmed that the rooms above, except for a few were still empty, and the other people were occupied, and the doors and windows of the empty rooms were closed twenty-four hours a day.
"Me and Kellyti's ...... It doesn't seem to be. Christine slowly raised her hand, timidly raised her hand and said, she felt as if she had made a mistake again, she had to close the window at night, which was a must-do, but there were no zombies for a long time, so Christine slacked off.
"Which window is not closed?" Robbie frowned slightly, looked at Christine and asked.
"The one that pulls horizontally."
"Where's the door?"
"Shut it off!"
"That's fine!" Robbie shook his head and said, looking at the screen again.
There is also a horizontal metal door in the door, every room is, if it's just that the window is not closed, as long as there is no one in the room, it's not a big problem, and Christine lives on the third floor, although the villa is not difficult to climb because of the shape, but as long as there is no attraction on it, zombies will not take the initiative to climb up.
"Will they go?" Hanny asked uneasily as she stood beside Christine, her little nose wrinkled.
"The devil knows." Christine looked at the screen and muttered in reply.
Monica, who is more than four months pregnant, has a slightly bulging belly, took off the jewelry on her head and put it on the cabinet on the side, tidied up her hair, walked to the computer under the big screen and sat down, turned on the computer screen, put on headphones, and fiddled with the keyboard a few times, pulled the wireless microphone on the side to her mouth, and said, "Honey, can you hear me?" Can you turn the camera up, I can't see you. ”
Monica's computer screen at this time shows the picture of Tang Ji's laboratory, which was taken by a large camera, and the camera is obliquely pointed at the cage where the zombies are held, and Tang Ji cannot be seen.
"I'm here, what's wrong? I'm a little busy here. A slightly hoarse voice came from the headphones, the computer showed that the camera had not been adjusted, and Tang Ji had not turned on the camera on the laboratory computer, and it seemed that he was really busy.
"What's wrong with you, baby? Such a strange voice? Monica asked, frowning slightly.
"Cold! Winter is coming, cough cough ......" As he spoke, Don Ji coughed twice, took a deep breath, and continued: "Did something happen?" Well...... Wait a minute, I'll take a look there......" In the headphones, Tang Ji's voice was getting farther and farther away from the microphone, but soon returned to the microphone: "Say, what's wrong?" ”
"Did you watch the surveillance?" Monica asked.
"No, it's a little ......busy," Don Ji responded, explaining a little, but then let out a low cry: "Oh shit, there are so many zombies out there, what the hell happened?" Now, when Don Ji answered Monica's words, he called up the surveillance camera to check, and he saw the zombies outside.
"I don't know, it just happened." Monica replied.
"Damn, how can there be so many, ahem...... Ahem, ahem, ahem......" As he spoke, Tang Ji coughed.
"Baby, are you okay?" Monica asked eagerly.
"I'm fine, they seem to be wandering, I don't know why they're around us, there are too many of them, it's too dark, leave them alone, you stay in the villa, lock the doors and windows, try not to make a sound, they all live in the living room tonight, if they stay here all night, find a way to deal with them tomorrow morning, understand?" In the headphones, Don Ji's voice was hoarse.
He looked at the situation and made a plan that the enemy would not move and I would not move, although the people here had weapons that could deal with hundreds or even thousands of zombies, but now it was too dark, once a battle broke out, the zombies would boil, so many zombies, it was possible to tear down the barbed wire fence, and when the zombies rushed into the courtyard to besiege the villa, it would bring great danger to everyone, and, at present, this battle is not necessary at all, this may be just an unconscious transit of zombies, they may be wandering out of which town unconsciously, into the forest, passing by exactly here.
"I understand, you pay attention to rest, don't get too tired." Monica said.
"I know, I'll go to sleep when I'm done, and you guys should rest early, good night!"
"Good night!"
After ending the call with Don Guy, Monica turned around and stood up, looked at the people in the living room, and said, "Don said to leave them alone, everyone sleeps in the living room today, try not to make a sound." ”
In the living room, the crowd gathered in front of the big screen gradually dispersed, there were many sofas and chairs in the living room, and the carpet was also very soft.
Time passed slowly, the big screen showed, the number of zombies reached about 800 and then did not increase, it seems that this time through the forest to reach here only so many zombies, they are all around the courtyard, standing in front of the barbed wire fence, from time to time the shaking body will also hit the barbed wire fence, but not deliberately, it is an unconscious behavior, except for the strange behavior when they gather, everything after that is very normal.
"Looks fine!" Robbie said as he stood in front of the big screen with his arms folded over his chest.
"Hmm...... Hopefully they'll leave! Jon stood beside Robbie, also with his arms folded on his chest, and nodded and said.
"Could it be a chimney problem? We've had fires lit up for the last few nights, smoke coming out, and we can see it from afar. Not far behind the two, Meghan's guessing voice suddenly sounded.
Johnn and Robbie looked back at the same time to see Meghan sitting on a chair by the fireplace, still holding a piece of wood for the fire.
"Probably not, there are many wars in the last days, and there is smoke in many places every day, big and small, but I have never seen zombies attracted by this, just like light, neither of these situations will attract them." Robbie looked at Meghan and shook his head.
"Oh...... Got it, so why are they coming? Is it because we have zombies? Seeing that what she thought might be rejected, Meghan immediately pulled her face very emotionally, and responded with a very boring feeling, muttering some speculations in her mouth.
"What did you say?" Robbie had already turned his head back at the same time as John, but suddenly turned back, looked at Megan and frowned and asked.
I said...... I see, why are you so fierce? Meghan's expression became very angry, probably thinking that Robbie's tone was not good.
"Please......" Robbie's expression flashed a trace of helplessness, because when Meghan joined, Robbie had treated her with a very "brutal" attitude and shot her, so after Meghan joined, she has always looked at Robbie very unpleasantly, and often misinterprets Robbie's words, because of similar things, Meghan also quarreled with Sarah.
"I'm just asking you, don't you be so sensitive, okay? I know what you said after that? Robbie looked at Megan helplessly and asked.
"Oh...... I say...... Is it because we have zombies...... Megan, who is used to saying "oh", sighed again, recalling and saying slowly.
Syllable!
"That's it!" Robbie snapped his fingers, interrupted Megan's words, pointed at Meghan and said, then turned his head to look at John, and he could feel it from John's eyes, he also thought it was possible.
Zombies will gather, this is instinct, everyone knows, so it is really possible that the zombie raised by Tang Ji attracted these zombies.
"Don ...... Tang Dynasty...... Are you there? Robbie didn't hesitate any longer, walked over to the computer under the big screen, and connected to the communication with Don Ji.
"I'm ...... What's wrong with it? In the headphones, Tang Ji's voice was still hoarse.
"We just made a guess...... All right...... Megan, Megan thought of it. Robbie saw Megan walking to his side, staring at him, and changed his words: "Megan just guessed, could it be that the zombie in the laboratory brought those zombies outside?" That zombie has been locked up by us for so long, it may be a little ...... Different, right? ”
“…… Probably ......" In the headphones, Tang Ji's voice was silent and said.
"So what are we going to do?" Robbie asked.
"Do nothing, wait until dawn, even if I kill this zombie now, those zombies outside will still be there, everything will be said tomorrow, as long as they are still in this state, we will not move." Tang Ji responded.
"Understood!"
……
This night, the people in the living room of the villa slept peacefully, and the next morning, when Robbie opened his eyes and looked at the big screen, he still saw zombies.
They're not gone yet. (To be continued.) )
