Chapter 301: If You Are Afraid of Death, Find a Zero (2)
"Because you're afraid of death, you choose to go to the left?"
Little Lori squinted her eyes and looked at Lu Yulai who was driving more and more suspiciously.
"That's right, if you're afraid of death, you'll fight zero, because you're born timid, so you ran to the police station."
"Forehead ......"
Hearing Lu Yu's very unorthodox answer, Xiao Ran felt that three black lines suddenly hung on his face.
"Do you want to spend the night at the police station?"
"Well, you guessed it, Xiao Ran is so smart!"
Holding the steering wheel with one hand, Lu Yu's eyes were deflected, wanting to reach out and pinch the tender flesh on the little girl's face.
Xiao Ran dodged slightly, slapped off the pig's paw stretched out by Lu Yu with a little disgust, and continued to speak.
"Have you ever thought that the police station may be the hardest hit area by the virus......
"Hehe, of course I've thought about it, but at the moment, in addition to the Chengxi Police Station, the only place I'm familiar with is the company that usually works, so it's better to turn back to the print shop......
thought it was a prudent choice, but it was Lu Yu's helpless move.
There is no way, who made this twenty-seven-year-old young man a road idiot.
"Let's not mention why you are so familiar with the Chengxi Police Department, why don't you go to your company?"
With his arms clasped in front of his chest, Xiao Ran turned his head, stopped looking at Lu Yu, and continued to ask.
"What are you doing in the company, the company is in the east of the city, which is completely opposite to the west of the city, didn't Zhang Tiehua say at the beginning, the intersection leading to the Siming Mountain Refuge is in the west of the city, if I turn back now, I won't waste a lot of gasoline?"
As he spoke, Lu Yu also patted the steering wheel and motioned Xiao Ran to look at the amount of oil on the dashboard.
The electronic instrument cluster shows that the vehicle still has nearly half of its fuel reserves.
Although this amount of oil storage will not make the car break down without driving much, it is definitely not rich.
Considering that every next step was full of uncertainties, Lu Yu could only be careful with his calculations.
"Okay, that makes sense, so let's talk about why you're so familiar with the Seongxi Police Department."
Xiao Ran's inquiry is like a question asked in class, except that the girl plays the role of the teacher, and Lu Yu plays the role of the student.
"As a good law-abiding citizen, why are you so familiar with the way to the police station?"
After the body successfully immunized against the virus infection, Xiao Ran's intelligence level had reached the level of an adult, and even far exceeded it.
In the few days she spent with Lu Yu, the girl naturally observed the words and deeds of this young man, intentionally or unintentionally, and made corresponding judgments on his character based on her previous memories.
Xiao Ran knew very well that although Lu Yu looked like he was not easy to provoke on the surface, his heart was softer than ordinary people.
Although there is selfishness in what he says and what he shows, he will still lend a helping hand at a critical moment in the end.
Xu Xiaoxiao, who came to the door with a knife at the beginning, went to Zhang Ning, who fell from the sky in the back.
There are even survivors who don't know each other.
As long as the other party does not infringe on Lu Yu's interests, this young man will eventually help.
It was these examples that made Xiao Ran make a judgment in his heart, Lu Yu would never be the kind of person who committed adultery.
So when Lu Yu showed that he was very familiar with the Chengxi Police Station, Xiao Lori would be puzzled.
After all, the youth never mentioned anything to her about the police station.
Faced with Xiao Ran's doubts, Lu Yu took a deep breath, and then slowly spoke as if he had made some decision.
"You know my father died in a car accident, right?"
Somehow, Lu Yu suddenly mentioned his father.
"Yes, I heard you mention it."
Xiao Ran nodded.
My mother is missing, and my father is killed in a car accident.
That's all she knows.
During the time he spent with Lu Yu, the young man rarely mentioned his parents, and even if he did, it was only a short sentence, and he was hastily mentioned.
It felt like Lu Yu was trying his best to avoid the past, trying to get out of the haze of losing his parents.
"Alas, my mom disappeared two years ago, and on the same day that my mom disappeared, my dad was also in a car accident and left this world forever."
Sighing lightly, Lu Yu slowly recounted the painful memories that made him.
"For two years, I've been waiting every day for my mom to come home, waiting for her to tell me what happened, but every day is the result of disappointment."
"The neighbors, including your parents, thought that the tragedy in my house was just an accident that could not have been more coincidental."
"But I don't think so."
"So for two years, I went to the Seongsi Police Station almost every week. Ask about the investigation into the disappearance and the whereabouts of the truck driver who ran away after killing my dad. ”
Looking at Lu Yu's expressionless cheeks, Xiao Ran muttered in his heart.
It turned out that he was not avoiding and breaking free, but trying to find the truth.
"It's been two years, and I've been running to the Chengxi Police Station for two years, but there are no clues, and the escaped truck driver and my mother are like grains of sand sinking into the endless sea, and it's hard to find a trace."
"But you still haven't given up, have you?"
Xiao Ran's eyes drifted into the distance and asked softly.
"Yes, how can I give up, my mother is missing, not dead, she must still be alive, I have a premonition!"
When she said this, the girl obviously noticed the tremor in Lu Yu's voice, but she didn't speak, just quietly looked at the backward building outside the window, waiting for Lu Yu to adjust her emotions.
"Let me tell you, my mother is very smart and capable, she must have encountered some difficulties, so she disappeared, she must still be alive."
As if to emphasize the thoughts in his heart, Lu Yu repeated it a little long-winded.
Xiao Ran nodded, hummed softly, and after a moment of silence, looked at Lu Yu who was driving with a blank expression.
"To put it mildly, I feel like I can't find your missing mother on your own."
The sudden poisonous tongue made Lu Yu, who was still immersed in sadness, slightly stunned, what did Xiao Ran mean by this? Could it be that he is mocking himself?
Lu Yu's eyes were deflected, and then he saw a sweet smile on Xiao Lori's face.
"But with me, it's different, I'm so smart that I can help you find your mother."
Hearing this, the surprise on the young man's face was instantly washed away with joy, and his mouth was open for a long time, but he couldn't spit out half a word.
"Drive seriously, be careful of the secondary infected in front of you!"
Xiao Ran stretched out his palm, pushed Lu Yu's cheek back into position, and added angrily.
The silver-gray pair of sedans picked up speed again, avoiding the secondary infected standing in the middle of the road, and drove smoothly towards the road ahead......
……
Seongsai Police Station, Detention Chamber.
Fifteen days, fifteen whole days!
Police officer Xiao Gu huddled in the corner of the detention cell, wooden
Staring at the hallway beyond the iron fence.
It's been fifteen days, and Xiao Gu hasn't seen any other creatures that can move, except for the monsters wandering outside the detention room.
Not to mention the emergence of humans who can save him from fire and water.
And Xiao Gu has been able to survive so far, thanks to the snacks and water he brought with him when he was on the night shift.
In the absence of food supplements, people can maintain at least a week according to their own fat reserves.
Yavin
If there is no water source, you will die of thirst in less than three days.
Although there was not a lot of food and water in Xiao Gu's black bag, under the reasonable distribution, he still let him last for more than ten days.
The water in the large steel thermos flask had been drunk a few days ago, and now the bottle was filled with Xiao Gu's urine, and in order to retain as much water as possible, the police officer had begun to take extreme measures.
But the world seems to have forgotten about him, there are no miracles, and there are no rescuers.
Since he hadn't eaten anything in the past few days, and the water he replenished still came from urine, Xiao Gu's physical condition and mental state were already very weak.
"It looks like it's past noon...... It's time to take a sip of water......"
The brain without nutrients was like a car stuck in the mud, Xiao Gu slowly and trembled and stretched out his palm and held it to the thermos beside him.
As if feeling that one hand was unsteady, Xiao Gu stretched out his other hand and slowly brought the cup to his face.
Unscrewed the lid, the smell of fishy urine came to his nose, but Xiao Gu's numb face did not have any expression, he was used to it, hunger and thirst blunted his five senses, in order to live, he had no choice.
"A quarter of ...... left"
After shaking the urine in the bottle, a trace of bitterness appeared on Xiao Gu's face.
It's like a countdown to his life, and when the urine in the bottle is gone, he can only wait for death.
Maybe it's a good choice to let Senior Sister Xiaoya, who has become a monster, help herself.
The thoughts in his mind were disorganized, he screwed the lid, tilted his body, and lay down on the ground again.
The best way to reduce the energy expenditure in your body is to sleep, lie on the ground, and do nothing but breathe.
"Maybe after I close my eyes this time, I won't be able to open them anymore, hehe, it seems that sleeping to death sounds more comfortable than being killed by Senior Sister Xiaoya......"
The eyelids closed heavily, and consciousness fell into darkness again.
It's the fifteenth day, and no one should come to his rescue.
All that was left was the sound of monster feet stomping on the ground, and it seemed that the only melody left in the ruined world was this monotonous and annoying.
Just when Xiao Gu was about to let his consciousness fall silent, his dulled ears suddenly caught a trace of sound that was not there before.
"Squeak———— bang!"
It's the sound of rubber rubbing against the asphalt and sounds like a poor driver trying to stop a fast-moving car.
And in the end, it didn't succeed in braking, and it hit something with a bang.
"I'm hallucinating from hunger...... But this driver was born to drive a donkey cart...... It's too rough......"
With the only consciousness he complained, Xiao Gu immediately fell into a deep sleep.
And in this moment of drowsiness, he seemed to hear a young man burst into a foul language, and the content seemed to be......
"! There is an ambush ......"
Then he heard a vague passage of meaning.
"Xiao Ran! Don't shoot it in the head, shoot it in the Achilles tendon! ”
