Chapter 22 Duties of Citizens
At this time, Long Tao walked in with a gun, Gu Yu looked at him, Long Tao shook his head at Gu Yu, these two people have a very tacit understanding, and they don't need to open their mouths when communicating.
Gu Yu said: "Long Tao has confirmed that there are no newly infected intelligent zombies nearby, no matter who it is, he has already left." ”
After he finished speaking, he looked at me, and I was excited by his heart, the case of the phone can't be solved, is this going to deal with me?
"What's your name?" He asked suddenly.
"Huh? Mulberry, Mulberry. I couldn't figure out his intentions, so I replied in a humble voice.
"Sang Rou, I want you to assist us in our work." He said with a blank look.
"Help ......" I looked at him hesitantly, I couldn't guess what he was going to do, so I didn't dare to agree immediately.
"It's your obligation." He said flatly.
I held my breath in my throat and didn't catch my breath, and said that you are dictatorial, and asked me what I am doing, doing this more!
"What are you asking me to do? First of all, I have the right to refuse. "If it's too dangerous, I'll run away at any time and let me die for him, there's absolutely no way.
"Hunt for the corpse." As soon as his words fell, Long Tao and Ah Ying looked at each other, and these two people showed surprised expressions at the same time.
The man sitting at the head of the bed straightened his back, his face was excited, his eyes were shining, seeing his reaction, my heart beat a drum, he didn't look like a normal person, Gu Yu's words seemed to give him another injection, he changed his soft and collapsed image, jumped to the ground and saluted Gu Yu with a standard military salute, and raised his voice:
"Please rest assured, chief, I promise to complete the task!"
"What's the situation? What is this for? "In a hurry, my northeast cavity came out, and I subconsciously wanted to use the teleportation egg.
"The zombie detector we use was developed by Dr. Wen." Long Tao raised his wrist and shook it, explaining.
"DM detectors are equipped on people, and they can only distinguish between humans and zombies." The man said excitedly, "Oh, I forgot to introduce myself, my surname is Wen, Wenbo Ran, majoring in bioelectronics, very honored-"
"Sorry, can you just say what you want me to do?" My heart was still hanging in the air, and I really didn't have the patience to listen to his polite words.
"It's very simple, as long as you modify the DM detector with your data, it is possible to distinguish which one is the corpse leader from the many zombies." Wen Boran pursed his lips and thought for a moment, and then said: "The same kind of match, even a look?" Do you understand? ”
"I understand, I understand, but how long will it take, I am in a hurry to go to the capital to find my parents." Assisting the military is only my spare time, and if I delay the search for my parents because of helping them, then I will definitely say goodbye.
"I want you to understand your situation." Gu Yuyi warned sternly, I think people like him should live on the screen, and he should face heinous criminals, but he pointed the finger at me, and there were eight golden characters on the spear: Obey leniently, resist strictly.
"Miss Sang, can you take the liberty of asking, did you deliberately want to follow us? Who gave you the message? What are your sources of intelligence? Long Tao didn't wait for me to open his mouth before he threw out a series of questions, his expression told me that he didn't think there was such a coincidence in the world, and even the subtext was obvious, since I was sticking to them like kraft candy, don't pretend to be reluctant.
That's right, I've met them several times and three times, it's not such a coincidence in the world, it's completely ape dung, what can I do!
"There's a saying...... The first chance encounter was a coincidence, the second encounter was fate, and the third ...... It's fate. I shrugged my shoulders and recited the lines that had been used badly.
"If you really want to be reunited with your family, you will strive for meritorious service, and you may still have a chance to be allowed to enter the safe zone." Ah Ying, who has never talked to me, suddenly said that she looked cute, and she didn't expect her tone to be the same as Gu Yu, but unfortunately this old-fashioned sentence came out of her mouth and was greatly discounted, as if a child was imitating an adult.
Although her language skills are insufficient, she is very persuasive, and my zombie identity cannot be concealed in front of them, let alone entering the heavily guarded security zone of the capital, where the detection equipment will only be more advanced than that used by Gu Yu.
"Okay, I'll behave well and fight for leniency." I reluctantly agreed on the surface, but in fact, I had other plans in my heart, following them to get a lot of information, especially the news of the safety zones in various places, and besides, they had cars, free transportation, and it was better to take more detours than to run on two legs.
However, Gu Yu just talked about the mission of their trip in front of me, it seems that he had premeditated, and I guess he asked me to assist them in their work, not only to search for the corpse, but also to control my uncertain factor in the line of sight, so as to prevent me from entrenching in one side and doing evil one day.
The two sides reached a consensus, and Gu Yu's mind returned to business, he first listened to Long Tao's report on the situation in the village, and then arranged for Dr. Wen to rest in the opposite bedroom, and he, Long Tao, and Ah Ying took turns keeping vigil, leaving this room with a telephone for me to rest.
The night was already deep, Wen Boran yawned and went to the bedroom on the other side of the living room, the first vigil was Ah Ying, Gu Yu and Long Tao sat on the sofa in the living room to rest.
I didn't need to sleep, I moved a chair and sat down at the table where the phone was placed, the window pane was knocked out by the zombies, but fortunately it wasn't broken, and I swiped the old-fashioned red telephone with my fingertips, and my eyes were fixed on the beaded glass cracks.
Some days have passed since the second wave of mutations, and even the radio can't receive a signal, so why is the telephone line still working in the village?
This question lingers in my mind like a thin mist, all abnormal phenomena will make me uneasy, it is abnormal enough to have an unblocked telephone line in the village where the power has been cut off a long time ago, and I didn't feel it when I talked to Gu Yu and them just now, but now the environment has become quiet, and I feel that I am staying in this house.
The key is not who called, but how he got out, and when the whole village lost power!
I hesitated in my heart, thinking for a moment that I should tell Gu Yu about it, and then feeling that with his mind, he must have noticed it earlier than me.
When I was fidgeting, I stretched my foot under the table, and the tip of my shoe touched something with a soft 'click' sound.
I didn't pay much attention to it, I stepped on this thing with the sole of my shoe and pulled it out, and found that it was a mobile phone, I picked it up and habitually pressed the power button, and I didn't have hope, the days without electricity passed for a few months, except for the radio with dry batteries, I haven't seen a working electronic device for a long time.
But to my surprise, the mobile phone screen is lit up, and the battery display in the upper right corner is full, but the back cover of the mobile phone does not know where to fly, and the standby screen is a photo of a family of four, and the front row of the photo is an old man with white hair, he is holding a baby in his arms, and there are two middle-aged people, a man and a woman, standing behind him.
The phone is very light, look at the picture quality and function, it is a touch-screen old man's machine, I look at the furniture in the room, and the old-fashioned phone on the table, I estimate that this room may belong to the old man in the photo.
The phone line was cut and the phone fell under the table, and the person who called for help at that time was probably not the intelligent zombie setting a trap as Dr. Wen guessed, and he must have encountered some emergency, because if the phone was dropped under the table during the day or earlier, the battery should be reduced.
What happened to the caller? Suppose it was the zombies that stopped him from calling for help, but what about the bloodstains? There will be no blood left in the house.
I checked the walls and floors around the table, and there was not a trace of blood, which meant that it wasn't a zombie that stopped this person, but another person.
Some people want to call for help, but some people want to stop it, who would prevent normal people from being rescued? Unless he has a compelling reason not to let people approach the house, or rather, not to allow outsiders to approach the house?
Thinking of this, I couldn't stay any longer, pushed the door into the living room, and said to Long Tao, "Did you inspect this house when you went out?" ”
Long Tao was smoking on the sofa, when he heard me open the door, he suddenly asked him a question, he was stunned, and looked at Gu Yu, who nodded, and then he said: "I have checked the front yard and the back yard, and there are no zombies that can move." ”
That's not what I wanted to hear, so I continued: "I mean the house, like is there a firewood house, a barn, or a cellar?" ”
The person who cut the phone line didn't want any 'people' to get close to here, not zombies, because the corpse herbs had not yet bloomed at that time, and the people here didn't know that a large number of zombies would come over, Gu Yu After they received the call, even if they left immediately, it would take a few hours, and I was still on the road at the time, and other zombies were still wandering in the countryside.
Therefore, the distress call has nothing to do with corpse vanilla, it has nothing to do with the zombies that suddenly surrounded, we should search this house thoroughly.
"There's a vegetable cellar in the backyard, with stones pressed down, and there are no zombies around."
"I'll take a look!" Whether it's over-nervousness or obsessive-compulsive disorder, I can't rest now if I don't figure out the abnormalities in my environment.
