Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Strange Factory
"Conditioned reflex, presumably?" Xia Mingyue stuck out her tongue embarrassedly, she just couldn't control it sometimes, and those people's eyes always reminded her of some bad things.
Su Ruoyun didn't ask again, Xia Yan had already driven over.
The exit and entrance of the shelter are not the same, so the place out of the shelter is quite smooth, not as crowded as the main entrance, this time it was Xia Yan driving, Xia Mingyue sitting in the co-pilot, so Su Ruoyun took the initiative to sit in the back, and the car drove out of the shelter, and I could see that there was still a flow of people at the door.
The Vault accepts survivors from all over the world unconditionally, but if they can't come up with a certain amount of crystal nuclei or contribution points to rent a house, they can only live in a "slum" on the ground, where there is nothing, the Vault only provides a tent, a piece of land, and the rest is up to them.
In this way, it is not without people who starve to death in the shelter.
Xia Yan drove the car out, and under the command of Su Ruoyun, went straight to the building materials city of Xingcheng.
This part of Xingcheng is quite large, but it is also far away from the shelter, and under normal circumstances, it takes about two hours to drive.
It's the end of the world, and the time it takes may be even longer. 、
The car drove into a factory, the surroundings were very quiet, there was not even a sound, Su Ruoyun immediately felt that something was wrong, the atmosphere here was a little strange.
Su Ruoyun looked down at the locator on his wrist, and there was no small red dot on it.
But even so, Su Ruoyun did not take it lightly, but was secretly vigilant.
This area is a variety of electronic factories, and shoe factories, almost all the electronics factories and shoe factories in Xingcheng are gathered in this area, after this piece, it is the building materials city of Xingcheng, almost more than half an hour away.
"It seems that no one is coming here, Ruoyun, should we search here?" Xia Yan slowed down the car, and it didn't seem that there was much damage around the factory, as if no one had come, so Xia Yan asked.
"No......" Su Ruoyun just wanted to tell Xia Yan to drive away from here directly, but before he finished speaking, a group of people suddenly came out from behind and surrounded their vehicles.
Xia Yan was forced to stop the car.
"What should I do?" Xia Yan didn't show much fear of this, but she was a little tired of these people's behavior of stopping the car: "Ruoyun, should we ...... them directly" Xia Yan made a movement to wipe her neck.
Since Xia Yan killed people in front of Xia Mingyue, in some daily life, Xia Yan no longer hides her character, and from time to time it is like solving those who have nothing to do with and take the initiative to get together.
"What do they want to do?"
Su Ruoyun shook her head at Xia Yan: "Let's see what they want to do first." ”
This group of people was still wearing factory uniforms, Su Ruoyun could still see the words "Xingcheng Jingdao Microelectronics Co., Ltd." on their clothes, these people looked numb, there was almost no emotion on their faces, the corners of their mouths were chapped, and their hair was messy, Su Ruoyun moved his nose, and vaguely felt a smell of blood.
Knowing that Su Ruoyun didn't want to do it for the time being, Xia Yan lowered the window a little bit and shouted at the people surrounding the car: "What do you want to do?" ”
The person by the window, seeing that it was a cleanly dressed girl who was driving, finally changed a little numbness, and his fingertips rubbed his clothes twice, before he asked in a hoarse voice: "Girl, are you from the base?" ”
Xia Yan didn't know what they wanted to do, her cold gaze scanned back and forth over the group of people, and after a while, she said coldly: "Hmm." ”
"If it's all right, please leave and get out of the way."
The man laughed dryly: "Girl, we have a few little girls here who are similar to you, can you please help bring them to the base?" ”
"Of course, I won't let you work in vain, I'll give you a little food in return."
Xia Yan's brows furrowed fiercely, she was not a kind-hearted person, and she didn't want to agree to these people's requests. Xia Yan turned her head to look at Su Ruoyun: "Ruoyun, why don't we just bump into it." ”
After Xia Yan finished saying this proposal, she was a little nervous.
"......" doesn't have to be so grumpy.
Su Ruoyun flashed a keen light between the smoke and waves: "Follow them first and see what they want to do." ”
The smell of this factory is not quite right, and the whole factory is like a giant beast waiting to devour people in its mouth under the sunlight.
In addition to this feeling from the sixth sense, there is also a point of mission released by 007.
Just when Xia Yan was forced to stop the car, 007 released a mission.
"Solve the villain × 100, and reward 10×,000 points for mission success."
007 doesn't post tasks for no reason, so it can be seen that these people may not be good people. But Su Ruoyun didn't know what they did, so she could only follow them down and see if she could find anything.
Su Ruoyun pushed the car window open and asked the people around outside, "Who are those little girls?" Why don't you send them to the base yourself? ”
The man in work clothes didn't expect that there was another person in the car, but when he saw that it was a beautiful girl, he subconsciously felt that there was no aggression.
A smile appeared on his face, which was not sincere at all, but made people feel a little weird: "A few of us can't drive, so we really can't deliver it." ”
After saying that, he continued, "Can you help?" ”
"It's okay to let us help, but you have to pay us well." Su Ruoyun said coldly, "If the remuneration is not up to standard, we will not help you." ”
The man smiled, "We have a lot of food. ”
When it comes to food, his smile is much more sincere than before, and so are the people around him, some of whom were originally numb in their faces, and they also showed a smile that seemed to be a smile.
Xia Mingyue rubbed her arms, turned her head, and whispered to Su Ruoyun, "They laughed so strangely. ”
She always felt that there was something in their eyes that she couldn't understand, but she couldn't say what it was, she just felt uncomfortable.
Su Ruoyun attached herself to Xia Mingyue's ear, lowered her voice, and whispered: "If you want to get out of the car in a while, you will follow me or your sister closely, don't be too far away, you know?" ”
Xia Mingyue nodded: "I know Sister Ruoyun, I will follow you closely." ”
Su Ruoyun gave Xia Yan an expression, Xia Yan immediately understood, and she said to the person next to the car: "How about you leading the way in front?" ”
When the man heard Xia Yan say this, he knew that Xia Yan had agreed to help, and the corners of his mouth suddenly became bigger: "We'll take you there." ”
After speaking, he took the lead in turning his head and walked briskly in front of him, leading the way for Su Ruoyun and the others.
Xia Yan drove the car and followed behind the man. The people around the car saw that Su Ruoyun and the others were indeed heading in the direction of the factory, so they acted together and slowly moved forward behind Su Ruoyun and their car.
Xia Yan, who was driving the car, saw this scene in the rearview mirror and complained: "Why are they like marionettes." ”
But isn't it, Su Ruoyun looked at the people behind him, it is said that the last days are only such a short time, these people should not be so desperate on their faces, if they are already desperate now, then how can they survive in the future?
People should have hope, and if they can only feel despair, then they really can't see the future at all.
Xia Yan drove into the gate of the factory in her car.
The gates of the factory have been re-fenced with wire, almost two meters high, but this should not be able to resist the zombies, but in this factory, there is really no sense of the breath of zombies.
On the barbed wire with spikes, there were still traces of undried blood, and the tip of Su Ruoyu's nose moved, what she smelled before should not be the smell of blood on it.
"Have you arrived?" Xia Yan asked impatiently.
That person kept taking Su Ruoyun and the others to the staff dormitory area.
"Here it is."
"Come up with me, those girls of ours are more timid, and they're all up there."
"The food is also on it, you can move it down together."
Su Ruoyun didn't say anything, pushed open the door and got out of the car.
Xia Yan shrugged her shoulders and followed, Xia Mingyue naturally couldn't stay on it by herself, she first moved to the cab, then got down from the cab, and ran directly to Xia Yan's side, holding Xia Yan's arm.
As soon as she got out of the car, Su Ruoyun felt that a lot of vague eyes fell on her, and when she looked over, she could only see the curtains floating in the dormitory.
Su Ruoyun squinted, there may be a "surprise" waiting for them in this dormitory building.
"Let's go." The person in charge of leading the way urged Su Ruoyun and the three of them: "Those little girls in our family should be in a hurry, we have found several waves of people, and no one is willing to help us." ”
The man sighed as he spoke: "It's better for you college students, kind-hearted, you will definitely be good people and have good rewards, let's go up." ”
As the man spoke, he took the first step and walked towards the dormitory building with his legs raised, Xia Mingyue looked at Xia Yan and whispered: "Sister......"
Xia Yan patted the hands held by the two of them, signaling Xia Mingyue to relax. Looking at Su Ruoyun's casual look, there shouldn't be any danger in their trip, besides, even if there is any danger, she, a fourth-order ability, can she still be afraid of the conspiracies and tricks of these ordinary people?
When these people blocked the way, she could see that among these people, there was not a single supernatural person, and it seemed that these people had stayed in this factory since the beginning of the end of the world and did not move, and they didn't know how they survived until now.
If all of them were ordinary people, it would be a miracle that they could persist until now.
Su Ruoyun followed the man up, Xia Yan and Xia Mingyue followed Su Ruoyun, and as soon as the three of them entered the dormitory building, those people behind them also followed the expressionless fish.
It's a bit dark in the dormitory, and it's not very accurate.
Su Ruoyun watched as she climbed up to the second floor, and the person who led the way hadn't stopped, she rolled her eyes and asked with a smile: "Uncle, where do those girls live?" ”
"Sixth floor." The man who led the way replied without looking back.
Su Ruoyun frowned slightly, this dormitory building is only six floors in total, the temperature on the roof should not be very good, what are they doing on the sixth floor?
The sixth floor finally arrived, and the man walked all the way to the end of the hallway, pushing open the door of the hallway: "They're inside." ”
Su Ruoyun probed inside, and before she could do anything else, there was a push behind her, not only her, but also Xia Yan and Xia Mingyue. The three of them entered the room together.
"The one who wants to die dares to push the old lady?" Xia Yan turned her head angrily, but she only heard the sound of a door and a lock.
"What do these turtle grandchildren want to do?" Xia Yan walked over and kicked the door, but felt that her strength was much less, and when she wanted to use her ability to break through the door, she found that her ability was gone. To be precise, there is no way to use it.
A trace of panic flashed in Xia Yan's eyes.
Su Ruoyun asked, "What's wrong?" ”
The look on Xia Yan's face was ugly. The tone was unusually serious: "My anomalies don't work." ”
"How so?" Xia Mingyue was surprised, how could the ability suddenly disappear?
As she spoke, she wanted to get something out of the space, and tried several times, but it didn't work.
Her eyes widened now, she hadn't heard of anyone's abilities suddenly unusable.
Xia Yan and Xia Mingyue looked at Su Ruoyun together, Su Ruoyun tried his ability, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.
"I can't use my abilities either."
"We're not going to roll over." Xia Yan had a hint of depression in her tone, she didn't show her strength in the last days, everyone was watching, if she went offline like this, she would definitely have to suffocate to death.
"It's supposed to be weird about this place."
Xia Yan tried for a long time without giving up, but the result was nothing but tossing herself into a sweat.
"You don't have to work in vain." A strange girl suddenly came from the room, Su Ruoyun and the others turned their heads to look, only to see a slightly pale girl coming out of the innermost bathroom in the room, "They have drugged in this room, specifically for the supernatural, no matter how powerful the supernatural is, after walking into this room, they are no different from ordinary people." ”
Xia Yan was surprised: "There is such a thing?" ”
How is it possible to imprison the abilities of the supernatural? It's simply unheard of.
Su Ruoyun suddenly had a person in a white coat in her mind, except for him, there should be no one in her contact who could research such a strange potion.
Facing Xia Yan and Xia Mingyue, who were a little worried about their current situation, Su Ruoyun comforted: "It's okay if you don't have any abilities, don't we still have weapons?" ”
As she spoke, Su Ruoyun winked at Xia Yan.
Xia Yan was stunned for two seconds, then suddenly ran over and leaned on Su Ruoyun's ear: "Ruoyun, is your space still usable?" ”
Su Ruoyun nodded and gave Xia Yan an affirmative answer: "Congratulations, the answer is correct!" ”
