Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Missing Pistol

Ma Long was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but then he understood Lu Yu's intentions.

He had a fever, although it was possible that it was due to a wound infection, but the symptoms were consistent with the symptoms of a viral infection, so Lu Yu had a reason to take precautions.

If Malone is really unlucky and becomes a zombie, then the whole room will suffer, so tying him to the bed before determining the cause of the fever is the safest option.

Zhang Jike opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something for Ma Long, but in the end he sighed and said softly.

"Tie me up, I'm also at risk of contracting the virus."

"What?"

Lu Yu on the side raised his head and glanced at Zhang Jike, the movements in his hands did not stop in the process, and the rope tied a beautiful bow on Ma Long's chest.

"Although the information we have not clearly stated that secondary viruses can be transmitted through the air, there is a high risk that people like me and Malone who have exposed wounds will be infected by the virus."

Zhang Jike's eyes were blank, staring directly at the unmanned wall.

"Little Sanzi, he just turned into a zombie because he was cut a small hole by a strange plant, and before that, this kid was still sitting with me to eat......"

A short sentence seemed to evoke the soldier's painful memories, and his originally resolute face was crawling with sadness and despair, making the atmosphere further silent.

"In that case, I really need to tie you up too."

Just when everyone was immersed in Zhang Jike's grief, Lu Yu expressed his opinion very inappropriately, no way, who made him have no empathy, and he couldn't feel the other party's sadness at all.

When Xiao Ran heard Lu Yu's words, he didn't have too much expression on his face, he just turned around and walked out of the bedroom very obediently and went to the storage room to find a rope.

"By the way, what about our equipment?"

Zhang Jike was interrupted by Lu Yu like this, and his sad emotions were forcibly terminated, so he simply stopped recalling and turned to check the situation on his body.

At this glance, he found that the clothes on his body had been changed, the upper body was a white casual short-sleeved, and the pants were a pair of beach pants with a flame pattern.

Zhang Jike looked around and saw that the equipment he was wearing was not left in the room, so he asked.

"Oh, your gear and clothes are on the table in the living room, I'll bring them in for you."

Xu Xiaoxiao took the initiative to say and walked out of the bedroom quickly.

By the time she returned, she had an extra pile of clothes in her hand, as well as two rifles on top of her clothes.

Zhang Jike was relieved at first when he saw the rifle placed at the top, but then his face sank.

The girl put the equipment in her hand in front of Zhang Jike.

These things were taken off by Lu Yu and Zhang Ning from the two soldiers before, not that they were enthusiastic and wanted to let the two soldiers sleep more comfortably, it was purely because of the man's natural affection for firearms and curiosity.

But the two fiddled around for a short time before putting the gun back on the table.

After all, he hadn't really touched the gun, and he didn't know how to open insurance, so he could only make two gestures to enjoy it, plus Zhang Ning was timid, and it was not good to persuade the gun to go off for a while, which made Lu Yu reluctantly put down the gun.

Then the two took off the clothes and pants of the two soldiers and took them to be cleaned, and the casual clothes on Zhang Jike's body were the ones that Zhang Ning changed for him when he was unconscious.

"Guns, one less gun!"

Zhang Jike rummaged through the equipment, and the expression on his face gradually became ugly.

"Aren't both guns here?"

Xu Xiaoxiao pointed to the two rifles placed on top and said.

"It's not a rifle, there's a pistol, one is missing, and two pistol magazines are missing!"

Zhang Jike fumbled for one of the bullet belts and said anxiously.

"You guys, don't make trouble, this is a gun, I haven't been systematically trained, and there will be problems when I use it blindly, give it back to me!"

Seeing Zhang Jike's anxious appearance, Xu Xiaoxiao turned his head and glanced at Lu Yu and Zhang Ning with blaming eyes, and the girl naturally thought that it was these two men who wanted to hide the gun on a whim so that they could keep it for themselves.

How can I see Lu Yu and Zhang Ning, you look at me, I look at you, with an innocent expression on their faces.

"We didn't take it, we just played for a while, and then we put it back, and we played with rifles, and we didn't touch the pistol at all, let alone the bullet belt."

Zhang Ning scratched his head and explained honestly.

"Did you empty the magazine before? Forgot after changing the magazine? ”

Lu Yu touched his beardless chin and asked.

"No way, before I fell unconscious, I always used a rifle, the pistol has not moved at my waist, I looked at it just now, the rifle has the right number of bullets, only one pistol is missing, and there are two pistol magazines."

Seeing that Lu Yu and Zhang Ning looked confused, not like they were lying, Zhang Jike also calmed down and expounded his previous memories.

"Could it be that someone took it by mistake?"

Xu Xiaoxiao said the guess in his heart, but as soon as the words came out, the strong girl covered her mouth embarrassedly, regretting that she had said this stupid inference.

Mistaken? That's a gun! It's a weapon with great lethality, and it's not some clothes and pants, how can you get it wrong?

Everyone was silent for a while, and everyone knew very well in their hearts that it was impossible for the pistol to run away with long legs, the only possibility was that someone took it away, and this person took Zhang Jike's gun in a premeditated manner.

And at this moment, Xiao Ran returned to the bedroom again and handed a bundle of thumb-thick plastic rope to Lu Yu's hand.

"Sister Xiao Ran, have you seen the pistol in this pile of clothes?"

The person who asked was Zhang Ning, since he was rescued by Lu Yu that time, he learned that Xiao Loli had been strengthened by the virus, and his intelligence had been greatly improved.

Although she has been regarded as an adult in her heart, she still maintains her original habit in terms of address and has not changed.

I saw that Xiao Lori shook her head, and her good-looking heterochromatic pupils glanced at the rifle on her clothes, and said in a calm tone.

"I didn't pay attention, but if the gun was lost for no reason, there was only one result, it was taken by the survivors in this building."

Xiao Ran's remarks instantly grasped the center of the problem and guided everyone to think in the right direction.

Because in the residential building where they are located, all the outside entrances have been locked, unless they are flying, otherwise it is impossible for outsiders to enter the building without breaking the door lock.

"So the thief is between us."

Lu Yu had regained his composure at this time, his eyelids drooped and he didn't look at anyone, and he concentrated on wrapping the rope around Zhang Jike's body.

"Brother Yu and I must not have taken it, I will use my little Ding Ding as a guarantee."

Zhang Ning raised his hands high, and immediately revealed his identity as a good person.

"I'm not interested in small pistols."

Xiao Ran also answered lightly, and there was no trace of childishness on her delicate little face.

"I'm not interested in guns at all, if it's a handsome guy, I'll try to steal it."

Xu Xiaoxiao smiled embarrassedly and made a rare joke.

Zhang Jike, who has a lot of experience, naturally saw that the four people in front of him were telling the truth, but he was worried in his heart and said something.

"Go and ask Uncle Ni, as well as Yan Shao and his wife, maybe they want to use it for self-defense, after all, in this situation, everyone is in danger, and it is normal."

Zhang Jike seemed to have figured out something, but he was still anxious.

He was not afraid that it would be difficult to return to the team after losing the gun, but that he was worried that the weapon would fall into the hands of civilians and cause unnecessary casualties due to improper use.

"I'll go and call them."

Xu Xiaoxiao took the initiative to ask for help, and soon called the other three into the bedroom.

"What? Pistol? Hey, I was a soldier when I was younger, I touched a gun, I wasn't interested in that, and I didn't take it. ”

Uncle Ni, who was wearing an apron, said, he was still holding a spatula in his hand, and it seemed that he was just stir-frying in the kitchen.

"That, I'm frying noodles in the pot, I have to go and watch, I didn't take this gun, you ask someone else."

Uncle Ni waved the spatula in his hand, said a few words to Zhang Jike, and hurriedly walked out of the bedroom.

"Guns? I didn't pay attention, and I can't carry such a big rifle, husband, are you greedy and took someone else's? ”

Shao Xiuqi rubbed her eyes and said, she was sleeping on the bed with Yan Yanben just now, and she was forcibly woken up by Xu Xiaoxiao.

"I didn't take it, but I saw Lu Yu and Zhang Ning comparing over there yesterday......"

Yan Yanben said with a yawn, the corners of his eyes overflowing with crystal tears.

"Then no one will take it!"

Zhang Ning spread his hands and closed the coffin of the problem in front of him.

"How is it possible, the gun can't run away with long legs, you must have taken it, are you lying?"

Xu Xiaoxiao looked at Zhang Ning with a helpless face, and had already concluded in his heart that the pistol was taken away by this thief with peach blossom eyes.

"No, there's another person."

With a beautiful bow on Zhang Jike's chest, Lu Yu straightened his waist and said in a deep voice.

"Aren't there any other people, who, are they all in this house?"

Lu Yu looked at Xu Xiaoxiao, who had a question mark, and showed an elusive smile.

"Ms. Yao Peiqing."

Everyone in the room was stunned, and then suddenly realized.

Yesterday, Yao Peiqing came to the second floor to move supplies several times, each time to take a bag of rice, or a box of compressed biscuits, or to take away some mineral water and canned products.

Everyone didn't have a good impression of this selfish woman, and Lu Yu didn't object to her carrying food without permission, so they automatically ignored her existence.

Unexpectedly, this woman actually hit the pistol with her idea while everyone was busy.

Lu Yu gradually recalled the situation yesterday evening, after he and Zhang Ning placed the two soldiers, they did put all their equipment on the table in the living room, and there were indeed two pistols at that time.

He still remembers that Zhang Ning gave him popular science at that time, saying that it was a general pistol developed in recent years, the model was the CF-98T pistol, and what he said was actually a more beautifully crafted Type 92 pistol......

After holding the gesture for a while, he and Zhang Ning put the gun back into the equipment and ignored it.

After that, he began to work around Zhang Ning's affairs again, and it was dark at that time, Yao Peiqing's conditions for committing the crime could be said to be in the right place and at the right time.

Zhang Jike's missing gun should have been taken away by Yao Peiqing!

"What then? Do you want to ask her to get it back? ”

Xu Xiaoxiao frowned, and turned his inquiring gaze to Zhang Jike, who had been tied strongly.

"If you ask her directly, she will not admit it, and she may even hurt us with the gun in her hand."

Zhang Jike was just about to say something, but Lu Yu interrupted.

"What then?"

Xu Xiaoxiao was a little anxious, she also knew Yao Peiqing's previous attitude towards everyone, according to Lu Yu, Yao Peiqing, who had a gun, seemed to have become a time bomb, which could be detonated at any time.

"Don't worry, as long as we pretend not to find out about it, there is still a day before the communication is restored, as long as it goes smoothly until tomorrow, I believe there will be a turnaround."

Lu Yu still looked confident, which made everyone confused for a while.

"Are you really not worried at all that Yao Peiqing, who has a gun, will be bad for us?"

Zhang Ning's face was full of worry and doubt, and he looked at Lu Yu with some uncertainty.

"Not worried at all."

The corners of Lu Yu's mouth hooked, and he shook his head lightly and said.

Seeing that Lu Yu was so determined, everyone couldn't help but have doubts in their hearts, but they all felt that what Lu Yu said made sense, and they couldn't come up with a better way for a while.

Coupled with Zhang Jike and Ma Long's current state of being in bed, everyone finally discussed and decided that they would not move for the time being as if they had not found out about the loss of their guns......
