CHAPTER XVII

human nature

With the crisp sound of the lighter, I lit a cigarette and took a deep breath, I sat on a table and looked at the man kneeling on the ground, now he has completely lost the arrogance he had at the beginning, and after being taught a lesson by Pauline and Qi Yuhang, the whole person seemed to have been pulled off his spine, paralyzed on the ground and kept humming, looking like a puddle of rotten rotten meat. Subdued this seemingly vicious but actually hateful man, I asked Pauline to take Lele and her mother to other rooms, because I really wanted to know how such a guy got such a high-end pistol, in order to solve the mystery in my heart as soon as possible, I felt that it was necessary to use some methods that were inappropriate for children, so I could only let Lele and her mother avoid it for the time being, watching Pauline accompany Lele's mother and daughter into a room similar to a laboratory, I looked back at Qi Yuhang, strictly speaking, he is still a child, I am afraid he will not be able to complete it" "It's such a difficult thing, but seeing the excitement on this kid's face, I wonder if this guy has violent tendencies."

"Where did you get the gun?" Holding a cigarette, he picked up the pistol and asked the man on the ground, I'm not a military fan and don't know what kind of gun this is, to be honest, I was still a little excited to hold a gun for the first time in my life.

"I, I picked it up." The man replied in a trembling voice, but his answer was in exchange for Qi Yuhang's fierce kick, which hit him in the abdomen, and the man immediately curled up like a lobster, and let out a very disproportionate small wail from his wide open mouth.

"Are you fools when we are? Is this something you can pick up casually? Tell me where you got it? Qi Yuhang raised his fist and punched the man's face a few more times, and continued to ask as he beat it.

"Big brother is really me picking it up, don't hit me, please, don't fight, I'm telling the truth, I really beg you." The man curled up and held his head with his hands and begged bitterly, while I was just smoking a cigarette and looking at everything in front of me, I didn't think there was anything wrong with what Qi Yuhang did, and I wouldn't feel too much about what such a hateful person did.

"Tell me how you picked it up?" I raised my hand to signal Qi Yuhang to stop, then walked over and squatted beside the man and asked lightly.

"I say, I say." The man said with tears in his eyes: "I am a security guard at the school, and I usually help the police patrol, and I also help them patrol when something happens, this gun is the police who patrol with me, he let the zombies bite, I see that he can't run away with the gun, what I said is true, big brother, I swear, please don't hit me." "Speaking of the zuihou man lying on the ground with his hands pleading, seeing his appearance made me feel a sense of disgust from the bottom of my heart.

"What you snatched from someone else counts as a pick-up for you? So, you're useless? Astronaut threw him out. Standing up and looking at the disgusting guy on the ground like maggots, I still said lightly, Qi Yuhang was not ambiguous, and directly dragged the man's collar to the door.

"No, big brother, I'm useful, I'm useful, I know where there are guns, I've been to their gun store, there are a lot of guns, I can take you there, please, I still have the key to the gun hangar, I can take you to get it, don't throw me out." The man was dragged by Qi Yuhang and kept crying and begging for mercy, his hands and feet kept fluttering on the ground like a drowning man trying to grasp the straw that saved his life, but his words still touched me.

"Wait a minute." I stopped Qi Yuhang and walked over to look at the man on the ground and asked, "How do you know where the gun hangar is?" How do you have the key? It's best to give me a credible answer, or I wouldn't mind treating the zombies out there for a feast of fresh meat. ”

"Really, what I said is true, the east side of the school is the police station, we are all working together, I always go to them and know them very well, when I used to patrol, I used to go to their garage to get equipment, so I know where their gun depot is, when something happened, I looked at their head and couldn't do it, so I dragged his key down, I saw him use the key to open the gun store, really, I don't lie to you, please don't throw me out, please." The man kept kowtowing as he spoke, tears and blood mixed with snot, and saliva flowed down a puddle of disgusting eyes.

"Tell me about the situation when the accident happened, how did you get out." I have been staying at home for a few days when the disaster struck, and I don't know how this disaster happened and how it spread, Pauline and Qi Yuhang's situation is similar to me, and today I have such an opportunity I hope to understand the situation at that time, in fact, Qi Yuhang is also very curious to look at the man on the ground.

In order to make him more eloquent, I pulled him up and put him in a chair, lit a cigarette for him, and then sat on the table and watched him shiver and smoke a cigarette, stabilizing his mood before signaling that he could start.

"At the beginning, I heard that many people were sick, and the school thought it was an infectious disease outbreak and was ready to go on vacation, but before it was announced, the police notified that they would not let people leave and said that they were going to be quarantined, and there were a lot of riot squads, and the head of the security department asked us to cooperate with the police, and I was quite scared at the time to ask the police who were very familiar with what was going on, and they couldn't say anything, so we stayed there, and it turned out that something happened at night." Said that the man's hand shook obviously, took a hard puff of cigarette to calm down his mood and then said: "At the beginning, there were students running to our side, some people shouted murder, and some people said that someone ate people, it was very chaotic, the police couldn't stop it, and many students ran out, and then followed by those things outside, they bit a lot when they saw people, and the slow ones were finished, and the police shot when they saw that they couldn't do it, and it was useless to shoot, and those things couldn't be stopped at all as if they were okay. After a while, the police were almost dead, and when I saw that things were not good, I grabbed a gun and the set of keys and ran down the path, until I ran to the laboratory building, and I saw Wen Na running to the laboratory with the child in her arms, and I followed. After saying that, the cigarettes in the hands of these men were also smoked, and he still took two puffs of cigarettes and threw the filter on the ground with a smile, and then stared at me and Qi Yuhang with a scowl of scowling.

"Can you tell me that you let a child go out alone to find you something to eat?" Seeing that he was finished, I asked coldly.

The man was obviously stunned when he heard my words, and then he knelt on the ground with a "poof", opened the bow from side to side with both hands, and twitched and shouted: "I'm not human, I should die, big brother, please spare me, I'm really, I'm not a thing, please raise your noble hand and let me go." ”

I looked at him and smiled, shook the gun in my hand, and said, "If you can really help us find more weapons, I'll let you go." ”

When the man heard me say this, he hurriedly walked up to me on his knees and cried: "Big brother, don't worry, I promise there will be, I saw it with my own eyes, believe my big brother・・・・・・・"

Seeing him babbling endlessly, I raised my hand and interrupted him: "I only believe in the facts, if you can take me to find those weapons, I can promise to let you go, don't let me down, okay?" Without waiting for him to answer, I patted him on the shoulder and pointed to Yuhang and said, "Yuhang find a place to lock him up and give him something to eat." With that, I walked over to Pauline's room.

"Get up, and wait for me to serve you food?" There was Qi Yuhang's shouting behind me, and I couldn't help but wonder that this little guy was so violent.

Pushing open the door, I saw that Lele was already asleep in her mother's arms, and Pauline was sitting on the side talking to Lele's mother.

"Ahem, didn't bother you, did you?" I asked, coughing.

"I'm bothered to bother or not, are you done asking?" Pauline asked with a smile.

"After asking, that bastard is still somewhat useful, I asked Yuhang to find a place to lock him up first." I replied with a smile.

"By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet, my name is Wu Fei, and her name is Bao Lin, and the little guy outside is called Qi Yuhang." I said to Lele's mother, even though I had heard the bastard mention her name, I always thought it would be better to introduce her formally.

"My name is Wen Na, xiexie, you take care of Lele." Wen Na speaks very softly and matches her appearance very well, it should be said that Wen Na is a beauty, although she is already a mother, she can't see the traces of time, she looks like a Jiangnan woman, giving people a feeling of softness and weakness.

"It's nothing, it's all as it should be, in fact, we should be grateful to Lele, otherwise we would think that there are only three of us in the world." I smiled and said, "By the way, there is another thing I want to ask you, do you and Lele want to go with us, although it is hidden here, there is no food and water, so it is not a way for Lele to find it outside, we have a place that is safe and passable, and there are enough supplies." After saying that, I looked at Venna and waited for her answer.

Wen Na frowned and thought for a while: "No, I'm going to do some research here, and if I leave, my work will be wasted." ”

I feel very funny, it's very difficult to live now, and I don't know what this woman in front of me thinks this way. Wen Na seemed to see my thoughts, looked at Lele in her arms and said softly: "You should know Lele's situation, this is not logical, I am afraid that one day I will lose her, so I have been trying to find the reason but there has been no progress, but no matter what, I will not give up so I need to stay here." ”

Wen Na's words surprised me very much, if Lele's situation is not reasonable, then my situation is also unreasonable, if Wen Na can really find the reason, she can also solve my own mystery, thinking of this, I eagerly asked: "Do you really have a way to find the reason for Lele's mutation?" ”

Wen Na looked at me suspiciously and nodded: "Theoretically, yes, in fact, I also have some clues, but the sample is too small, and there is only one Lele, so I can't be sure if the conclusion I got is correct." ”

Pauline and I looked at each other, and I could see that she was also curious about Venna's research, so I asked, "What do you think is causing this mutation?" ”

Wen Na paused and said: "I have examined Lele, there is no problem with her body, and it can even be said that it is abnormally good, zuihou can't help it, I checked Lele's genes and found that her genome arrangement has mutated, I can't be sure if this mutation causes Lele to have unusual abilities, but I think this should be a direction, but I only have Lele's blood sample, there is no comparison, there is no way to determine." ”

I nodded and said, "Now you can have a few more samples, and all three of us have varying degrees of mutation. ”

Venna stared blankly at me and Pauline, her eyes full of shock.
