Chapter Thirty-Nine: Retreat x Memory

Zhang Lin held Jiang Chen's hand and tightened his strength, Jiang Chen was a little pained, and looked at Zhang Lin with a little doubt, but he was just puzzled, and in his cold eyes, it seemed that he just had a question about a person he simply knew.

Zhang Lin didn't like Jiang Chen's eyes when he looked at a stranger like him, how could his Ah Chen look at him like this! Zhang Lin's eyes were covered in red, different from the clear red color of the corpse king girl, with a red and black bloody aura.

Why does Ah Chen look at me like this! He wants to dissociate himself from me! No! Zhang Lin himself didn't realize that Jiang Chen's amnesia brought him such a powerful uneasiness, and the spirit in his body instantly lost control and poured out, not only did the zombie army stop, but the humans in the Yichuan base also felt strong tinnitus and dizziness, and some even fainted to the ground. However, Jiang Chen just felt a little uncomfortable. But everyone's attention was on the zombie army, and they didn't notice Zhang Lin's abnormality, so they all thought it was an attack by the zombie king.

Is there really no way to be helpless in the face of powerful forces, and the feeling of despair weighs heavily on the hearts of helpless people. Jiang Chen noticed Zhang Lin's abnormality, and instinctively felt that the current phenomenon was caused by Zhang Lin: "What did you do!"

The cold voice made Zhang Lin recover his senses that were almost out of control, the blood red under his eyes quickly faded, Zhang Lin put a gentle and harmless smile on his face, and whispered softly in Jiang Chen's ear like a lullaby: "You can't escape, Ah Chen." ”

Jiang Chen's punctured wrist was already numb, he only felt the sound of a demon seducing in his ears, and his brain was numb for a while, paralyzing all the functioning nerves, and he immediately lost consciousness.

Zhang Lin caught the fallen Jiang Chen, gently hugged him in his arms, turned around and ordered: "Everyone retreat!"

As the mental coercion dissipated, the discomfort gradually disappeared, and the herald was stunned for a moment: "But what about the corpses?" The meaning is self-evident, everyone retreats, who will break the back?

Zhang Lin took out a silver bullet from his jacket pocket, took out a pistol directly from the herald's waist and put it on, and when a shot fired, he saw the silver lines fly out, exploding and scattering silver powder over the corpses, and at this moment, the speed of the zombies that resumed action decreased, providing a great opportunity for humans to evacuate.

Seeing this, the herald did not doubt him, and quickly ordered everyone to retreat, you must know that Leader Zhang's words are unquestionable, just now he was stupid to ask that, as for the mixed-race young man in Leader Zhang's arms, the herald said that he didn't know anything.

The zombies behind him walked slowly, and the fighters who were still at the Yichuan base quickly got into the car and retreated safely to the north, their destination - the military base located in the former imperial capital - the territory of the old man of the Zhang family. Although the current head of the Zhang family is Zhang Jianyi, in fact, it is Zhang Lin's grandfather Zhang Qian who holds the origin of the Zhang family.

Jiang Chen couldn't remember when he fainted, because he now felt like he was in an ocean, countless tiny currents of water flowed in from his five senses, and shuttled through every corner of his brain in a rapid or slow way, so Jiang Chen knew that this was not reality. He may have been in a dream.

Many fragmentary pictures broke out of the cocoon and pieced together and fused in his brain, but Jiang Chen was not aware of this. In a long coma, Jiang Chen woke up several times in a blur, and every time he woke up, he was almost in Zhang Lin's arms, the semi-enclosed space, the shaky shaking, the changing environment outside, Jiang Chen knew that they were no longer in the Yichuan base, but were moving in a certain direction in the car. Whenever Jiang Chen tried to wake up with his half-open eyes, Zhang Lin would gently close his eyes with his hand and drop a gentle kiss on his face, and then Jiang Chen fell into a coma again, repeating the passage of small flowing water, watching the patchwork of countless puzzles.

Ten days later, the survivors of the Yichuan base did not encounter much danger along the way, the strong entered the military base smoothly, and the old, weak, sick and disabled people who lost their support in the corpse tide and on the road were naturally turned away, and Zhang Lin once again became the research leader of the military base.

When Jiang Chen woke up again in a clean and warm room, he had already recovered all his memories, sitting on the bed with his legs crossed, his right hand with four fingers bent in his palm, his thumb pressing his lower lip, and his teeth rubbing his nails as if they were nothing. Jiang Chen thought expressionlessly, indeed, he provoked Zhang Lin at the beginning~

Twelve years before the end of the world, the Angel Welfare House. 8-year-old Jiang Chen looked at the child who was in a dirty and comatose coma on the bed with an expressionless face. It was stormy last night, and because I had just rejected the adoption of a family, I was called by the director of the welfare home to buy toilet paper. Even with an umbrella, Jiang Chen walked very hard in the wind and rain.

The weather was bad at night, and there were basically no people on the road, so Jiang Chen walked back to the orphanage in the dim light. Carrying a certain weight of paper bought from a 24-hour shop, Jiang Chen didn't pay attention to his feet, and tripped over something less than 50 meters away from the orphanage. Jiang Chen quickly got up and wiped his eyes and face stained by muddy water with his sleeve, anyway, his clothes were dirty, and being scolded could not be avoided. Jiang Chen put his backpack on his back again, looked back and took a closer look, only to find that it was a child who tripped over him, and he was probably a little smaller than himself, lying on the ground, his whole body was soaked, and his chest trembled slightly, and he called you with a load, telling Jiang Chen that the child was still alive.

Jiang Chen's ghost approached the child, and the child suddenly opened his eyes, staring at Jiang Chen with dark eyes, and the subtle expression on his face showed that he was very uncomfortable now.

"Do you need help?" Jiang Chen asked kindly. In fact, although the child is embarrassed, the bright eyes and the outline of the facial features also reflect the delicacy of the child's appearance, if the other party is not good-looking, maybe Jiang Chen will only get up and do what he should do without seeing it back. I have to say that this is a world of faces.

The child looked at Jiang Chen, who was covered with dirty mud and water like him, his blonde hair under the orange light was not shiny, and the mixed-race facial features that had not yet grown were enough to see the future amazing. You must know that the influence of appearance is very large, and the child's voice asks in a glutinous voice: "Who are you?" and the weak performance will make the other party answer his own question first.

"Jiang Chen. Jiang Chen replied and asked again: "Why are you here?"

"I was in poor health since I was a child, I couldn't do anything, and I was abandoned by my parents after a long time. The child said, with a few violent coughs, and the clean part of his skin became paler, "Can you help me?"

Jiang Chen was silent for a while, "I can only take you back to the orphanage." ”

Is it an orphan?The child smiled hard: "Thank you." Jiang Chen heard him say before he fell unconscious again: "My name is Zhang Lin." ”

Jiang Chen hung his backpack around his neck, carried Zhang Lin with difficulty, and dragged him back to the orphanage, walking for nearly 10 minutes in less than 50 meters. Jiang Chen can only take Zhang Lin back to the welfare home, Jiang Chen has no money and no ability to send Zhang Lin to the hospital, Jiang Chen has never thought about calling the police, as for the Angel Welfare Institute, like most welfare homes, it has the nature of one in front of one and one behind the other, so he will be called to buy things in the rainstorm. Zhang Lin is good-looking, according to his words, he is an orphan, the welfare institute likes these children very much, and those who come do not refuse, because it will bring them great benefits, Jiang Chen's refusal did not bring him much punishment during the day, but the family is not very rich, at most above the well-off, a mixed-race child like Jiang Chen should have a higher price.

As Jiang Chen thought, he was reprimanded a few words, and the Angel Welfare Institute also accepted Zhang Lin, it was originally a welfare house with incomplete documents and all relying on relationships, and the dean saw that Zhang Lin was wearing a dirty nameplate, so he knew that this child might be lost by a rich and noble family, which could bring great benefits, so he asked Jiang Chen to take care of him. Don't ask the dean how he knows it's a famous brand, he has seen the set of clothes Zhang Lin is wearing, and a few days ago his nephew pointed to the set of clothes on TV and said that he wanted to buy it.

The doctor from the welfare home came to see Zhang Lin, and there was no big problem, it was really as Zhang Lin said, he was weak, and then he was drenched in the rain and had a fever. After prescribing antipyretics, the dean asked Jiang Chen to take care of Zhang Lin.

Jiang Chen made hot water and wiped Zhang Lin's hands and face, and changed his own clothes. Zhang Lin was still asleep, his washed white and tender little face was as delicate as he guessed, and his young eyebrows revealed the temperament that a rich and noble child should have. is completely different from Zhang Lin, with the same outstanding appearance that can be seen since childhood, Jiang Chen is like a down-and-out aristocrat abandoned in the abyss, except for that beautiful skin and ridiculous self-assertive arrogance, there is nothing.

Jiang Chen fell asleep beside Zhang Lin unconsciously, and when Zhang Lin woke up, he saw Jiang Chen who was still asleep, just when he didn't know where to go and what to do, not the kind of situation that fell into deep despair, but simply faced the confusion between the present and the future, and the ignorance that didn't even feel death, the blonde angel who appeared in front of him gave him a reason to do something temporarily-he could stay in the welfare home.

Perhaps Zhang Lin's gaze was too eager, Jiang Chen woke up, and the not too strong sunlight in the early morning sprinkled on the faces of the two children, soft and quiet and peaceful. The two children looked at each other silently, so Jiang Chen broke the silence: "You woke up, the dean said you can stay here until someone takes you away." ”

"I don't want to leave, and no one will take me away. Zhang Lin lied, because he enjoyed the present with Jiang Chen. After speaking, Zhang Lin coughed. He is still very weak.

"Are you not well?" Jiang Chen gently patted Zhang Lin's back.

"Well, since I was a child, my body has always been very weak, and I obviously didn't get sick, so I was abandoned. So I can't go anywhere, I can only stay here. Zhang Lin smiled and said innocuous words.

After a moment of silence, Jiang Chen thought of something: "Then can we be friends, I don't have any friends, and I don't have a place to go." "Jiang Chen wants to be friends with Zhang Lin, because Zhang Lin is weak, because Zhang Lin can't go anywhere, so Zhang Lin won't leave him, so Zhang Lin only has one friend with him, and it won't be like other people in the welfare home, they can play together, they won't be his only ones, they will be adopted and left at any time. But Zhang Lin can, stay with him all the time, because Zhang Lin's body doesn't allow him to go too far, so that he is not alone.
