"That's right, I was already able to receive the news of evacuation on the radio just now, and it said let's go to the nearest Siming Mountain, where there is a government shelter."

Lu Yu opened his mouth to answer, his tone was calm, there was no eagerness, no excitement, and he did not blame why the troops did not send people to the rescue.

"I'll try to contact the ...... on the team"

After listening to Lu Yu's answer, Zhang Jike was silent for a long time before he slowly spoke.

While speaking, Zhang Jike took the mobile phone on the bedside table, entered a string of numbers into it, and called out.

Lu Yu was stunned, the contact information between the armies was so civilian? Just make a call from your phone? Don't you need to operate any walkie-talkies, radios?

Zhang Jike obviously saw the look on Lu Yu's face and explained lightly.

"The team uses drone signal coverage to restore urban communication, and the mobile phone can naturally be used, and you can also take this opportunity to contact your family, but it is limited to N city, and you can't contact you when you get out of N city."

After Zhang Jike finished speaking, everyone was stunned at first, and then they flocked out of the bedroom and looked for their mobile phones.

Only Lu Yu, Xiao Ran, and Xu Xiaoxiao did not move, and still stayed quietly in place.

Before the phone was connected, Zhang Jike looked at the three people in front of him while waiting, and asked curiously.

"Why don't you three call home? Ask about the situation? ”

"My parents went to Sanya to play before the catastrophe, and they are not in N City, so I guess I can't contact them......"

Xu Xiaoxiao lowered her head, she also wanted to know how her parents were doing, but Zhang Jike had already said that communication outside N City might not have been restored.

"My parents are dead, my grandparents are in H City, I shouldn't be able to contact ......"

Xiao Ran replied calmly, with no expression on her delicate little face, as if she was stating something that had nothing to do with her.

"My dad died in a car accident before the catastrophe, and my mom is missing, so I don't have any other relatives."

Lu Yu frowned, as soon as he remembered his mother's disappearance, his heart would rise for no reason, this matter was like a thorn buried deep in his heart, whenever he recalled it, it was like touching this thorn, making his heart ache faintly.

"Hmm."

Zhang Jike didn't know what to say to comfort the three people in front of him for a while, so he had to hum softly.

At this moment, the mobile phone, which had been dialing up, was connected.

"Hello?"

A deep man's voice came from the receiver of the mobile phone.

"I'm Zhang Jike of the Huaxia Air Rescue Force, and the unit number is twenty-two."

After Zhang Jike reported his identity to the other end of the phone, he stopped talking, just quietly waiting for the other party to answer.

"Zhang Jike?"

After a brief silence on the other end of the line, the man spoke again, his tone full of surprise and doubt, like the murmur of a big dream when he woke up.

"Lao Zhang! You're alive? What about Malone, how is he? ”

As if he finally understood Zhang Jike's words, the man on the other end of the phone suddenly became excited, the question was thrown out like a cannon, and the voice roared out in surprise, even Lu Yu and the others in the bedroom heard a few words, and threw a puzzled look at Zhang Jike.

Zhang Jike smiled bitterly, changed his previous serious appearance, and said with a little lightheartedness.

"Malone is fine, but he was injured a little, we are now in a safe residential building, there is plenty of food and water, how are you doing there? When will the large force be able to carry out search and rescue? ”

But to Zhang Jike's surprise, after listening to his words, the other end of the phone did not immediately answer his question, but fell silent, as if organizing language.

"Lao Zhang, the large army may not be able to carry out search and rescue operations temporarily, temporarily......"

"How could it be! The troops are under attack? ”

Zhang Jike straightened up suddenly, changed the appearance of a sick cat with drooping eyelids before, and asked anxiously.

"No, the troops are okay, although after you left, you have experienced several shocks, but the casualties are not large, and the losses caused by the previous phase zombie are not as large."

The other end of the phone paused and continued.

"It's just that the main road into the city has been sealed! The main roads are overgrown with thorn vines the waist size of an adult, these mutated plants are so tough and grow so fast that ordinary fire and chopping do not work at all. ”

"Then use planes, why don't you use planes for rescue!"

Zhang Jike asked anxiously, his mind was full of Ma Long's injuries, and he was out of order for a while.

"Well, that's what I was about to say......"

The man on the phone sighed and said slowly.

"On the boundary of N City, a powerful flying creature has appeared, and many of our planes that went to the rescue were shot down by it, I thought at first that you and Marlon were attacked by this creature."

"Our helicopter was indeed shot down, but something else, not a flying creature in your mouth."

Zhang Jike briefly described his situation.

There was another brief silence on the phone.

"Now that we are also heading in the direction of Siming Mountain, preparing to join the troops over there, Shangfeng has decided to abandon some of the heavy equipment and enter the city lightly from the small road on Zhongshan Avenue, due to the problem of equipment and materials, the troops will not take the initiative to rescue the survivors around."

"You also understand that our troops have not even built safe shelters now, and blindly rescue survivors when it is difficult to protect themselves, and the result is only dragging them to death."

The man's tone on the phone was flat, but these words were like a heavy hammer, smashing on Zhang Jike's heart again and again.

All the information points to the fact that they are alone.

"I see."

Zhang Jike said calmly, without questioning or accusing.

As a soldier, no one knows the army better than him.

In the current situation, every order issued by Shangfeng must be for the sake of the overall situation, and if it were not really out of the question, it would be impossible for the troops to make a decision like 'not taking the initiative to rescue the survivors'.

There was silence on the other end of the line again, and only after a while came a low sigh.

"Lao Zhang, I hope to see you in the Siming Mountain Refuge, and Ma Long......"

The corners of Zhang Jike's mouth twitched, and he barely showed a smile.

"Guaranteed to get the job done."

pressed the hang up button, Zhang Jike returned to the original appearance of a sick cat again, drooped his eyelids, leaned back, and lay down on the bed.

Although Lu Yu and the others didn't hear what was said on the other end of the phone, looking at Zhang Jike's performance, they could somewhat guess that the development of things was not as smooth as they imagined, and they were silent.

After a while, everyone who left returned to the bedroom, and Yan Shao and his wife, who came first, were still full of worry on their faces, because the two of them called their respective parents, but they didn't answer.

After that, there was Uncle Ni, the old man's face had a slightly relaxed look, not because he contacted his children, you must know that Uncle Ni's children are all working overseas, and it is impossible to contact them in this post-apocalyptic environment.

The old man was so happy because he had just made contact with an old friend.

Uncle Ni didn't have much hope at first, but he just thought that the communication was restored anyway, so it was better to try to call over and have a look.

As a result, it was connected all at once, and when he heard the news that his old friend was safe and sound on the phone, Uncle Ni was a lot more relaxed, and after a short greeting, the other party told Uncle Ni that he was going to leave for Siming Mountain for refuge in the past two days.

"I hope to see him at the Simingshan Shelter."

Uncle Ni thought in his heart, the original life day after day suddenly had expectations, and the whole person's spirit was much better.

Yao Peiqing also tried to dial the number, but before the phone was connected, he quickly pressed the hang up button again and put the phone back in his pocket.

The rest is Zhang Ning.

Zhang Ning's mobile phone was no longer on his body, so he could only wait for Uncle Ni to finish the call, then borrowed the mobile phone, entered his mother's phone with his memory, and dialed it.

Before the call, uneasiness filled his brain.

After all, he woke up from the morgue, and his parents and girlfriend probably thought he was dead.

Coupled with this sudden catastrophe, a bad feeling was always haunting his heart.

"God forbid, I hope my family is okay!"

Zhang Ning prayed silently, took a deep breath, and pressed the call button.

"Dut...... Honk...... Toot ......"

After a while, a familiar voice came from the phone, making Zhang Ning's eyes instantly overflow with tears.

"Hey, who are you?"

"Mom, it's me, your son, I'm not dead! Hahaha......"

Zhang Ning laughed happily, and bean-sized tears rolled out of his right eye and quickly slid down his cheek.

"Who's ......"

The other end of the phone obviously didn't react, and he was stunned for a while before he said.

"Son? What a son! Come on, old man! The son is not dead, the son is still alive! ”

There was a happy shout from Zhang Ning's mother on the phone, as well as the noisy sound of some debris falling to the ground after being hit.

"Is Dad okay? Great, what about Jiayi, how is she? ”

After hearing that his father was also safe and sound, Zhang Ning finally put down half of the stone in his heart, and hurriedly asked about the whereabouts of his girlfriend Jiayi.

But Zhang Ning's mother replied with a little surprise.

"Jiayi, aren't you together?"

Zhang Ning froze when he heard this, and hurriedly asked.

"Jiayi hasn't contacted you? You haven't seen her since I had an accident? ”

There was a brief silence on the other end of the phone, and Zhang Ning's mother asked with some confusion.

"Something? What's wrong with you? All I know is that you two went to the movie that day, and you never came home, and you couldn't get through on the phone, and then there was a riot......"

Mom babbled about the situation at the time, but Zhang Ning didn't listen to half a word.

If his parents don't know the news that he has died once, it means that his girlfriend Jia Yi has not contacted his parents since the accident that day.

So, where did his girlfriend go?

Thoughts were tangled in his mind, and Zhang Ning, who had no clue for a while, had no choice but to pick the key points and ask.

"Mom, how are you and Dad doing now, and do you still have food and water reserves at home?"

"There is still some rice at home, and the water has not stopped, and your father and I have boiled tap water to drink, rest assured, neither of us has contracted that madness......"

Hearing this, Zhang Ning's heart tugged again.

Fortunately, his mother had the habit of purchasing food for a month in advance, otherwise the second elder might really starve to death at home.

"Your dad and I were going to wait another day, if there is still no news from you, we will leave for the Siming Mountain Shelter for refuge, God forbid, it's great that you're okay......"

Zhang Ning's mother was emotional on the other end of the phone, and her tone choked.

"Mom, you and Dad stay at home for the time being, I'll ......"

Zhang Ning spoke quickly into the microphone, but before he finished speaking, a noisy sound came from the mobile phone receiver again, and the exclamations of Zhang Ning's father were mixed in with it.

"What's the situation?"

Zhang Ning hurriedly stopped talking and asked anxiously.

But all he answered was a busy beep tone, and for unknown reasons, the phone was hung up.

Zhang Ning dialed the number and tried to make another call, but this time the call could not be connected......
