Chapter 442: The Missing Land
"You followed your husband before the virus broke out, so how do you know the recipe is fake?" Teng Rui suddenly asked.
"I... In fact, I guessed before, my husband has always been serious and rigorous about his work, and besides, the vaccine has indeed succeeded, his formula must be fine, and my father is unlikely to take so many lives as a child's play. Since the formula is fine, and my father will definitely produce the vaccine, the problem must be in the middle. Some people just want the world to be chaotic......"
"It's impossible, the vaccine produced can't be put into use without testing, but I think it's the last link that went wrong." Song Enru said.
"What's the link?" I asked.
"People with vaccines." Song Enru thought for a while and said: "Maybe the citizen's body has changed, and the vaccine has failed. ”
If so, it becomes a chicken-and-egg issue.
Was it the corpse fog that came first, the vaccine that the citizens injected later, or the corpse fog that appeared after they were injected with the vaccine first?
The injection of the vaccine must go to a professional location, and so many people in the city must be injected in batches, so the time of mutation will be different.
And Minghe City suddenly lost contact with the outside world overnight, and the city-wide mutation could not have occurred during the vaccination period.
The creation of the corpse fog is still a mystery, and perhaps this time we have the clue provided by the woman and can be lucky enough to solve this mystery.
We found the municipal building and went straight to the mayor's office, where everything remained intact and there was no sign of evacuation.
The collective mutation must have been a surprise to everyone, and due to the suddenness of the incident, they simply did not have time to organize the evacuation.
This just proves that the vaccine has been successful, and if the vaccine is ineffective, someone will find a way to escape.
I think of the two people who snatched the monitoring data, they dared to take such a big risk to defect, and they definitely came prepared.
Who will spend a lot of money on water quality monitoring data? Unless it's virus-related!
Will there be a correlation between the data and the vaccine?
Will the hard disk handed in by Gu Yu record the answers to all these questions?
"This is it." The woman's voice pulled back to my thoughts.
She walked to the safe in the corner, but her eyes stayed on the chair behind the desk, the papers on the table were neatly arranged, and the chair was tucked under the desk, apparently it wasn't working time when the whole city was mutating.
"I don't know the password." The woman said apologetically.
"I'll come." Song Enru walked to the safe, squatted down, and pressed her hand on the cabinet door.
She can open the space-time door on the cabinet door and travel through the two spaces inside and outside the cabinet, but I'm curious how she can use one hand to traverse.
As soon as she grabbed the contents of the cupboard, I thought about the teleportation ability I once had.
Song Enru took out a stack of document bags, with several pages of printing paper bound together separately in the middle, Song Enru looked at the content of the first page, nodded and said:
"That's it."
Song Enru handed me a few pages of printer paper, she went through the other documents, I took the 'formula' and looked at it, there was not a word of nonsense on it, it was all chemical formulas and technical terms.
The mayor probably can't read it, this thing is not written for laymen at all.
"Nothing useful." Song Eun-ru threw the stack of papers on the desk.
"Let's go, I'll send you home first." I folded the papers and put them in the inner pocket of my down jacket, and then said to the woman.
The woman walked to the desk, took out a picture frame from the first drawer, and took out the picture inside.
It was a group photo, it was supposed to be a family of three, and in the middle of the two couples stood a girl in a black bachelor's uniform.
Needless to say, it must have been a photo of the woman with her parents, who carefully pocketed it and turned around and walked quickly to the door.
When we got out of the municipal building, we looked at the city outside the city, and Minghe City didn't change much from when we left, but when I walked into the city, I found that many of the windows of the buildings were broken, and only the windows on the first and second floors were damaged, and there were no more windows on the upper floors.
There is very little glass slag on the ground outside, which indicates that the glass was broken from the outside.
Either someone is idle and has nothing to do, or it's not a human being who does it.
I picked a few places and checked them, and I didn't find any mutant beasts making nests in them, but there were indeed a lot of broken glass in the house, which means that my guess was right.
Something smashed the windows open from the outside, but didn't stay inside the building for long, and judging by the amount of broken glass we saw along the way, the destruction had almost smashed the main block.
The more I looked at it, the more confused I became, so I casually muttered, "What are they looking for..."
"You've noticed, these windows were vandalized." Xiao Zhang heard me muttering, staring at the broken windows with a puzzled expression.
"Sabotage shouldn't be the goal, they're probably looking for something." I say.
"Oops~ Looking for food, many animals are omnivores, they may be looking around for food." Xiao Yang said disapprehantly.
The north is now sparsely populated, and animals can run into the city unscrupulously in search of food, and Xiao Yang's explanation makes more sense.
I looked at the porous window, thought for a moment, and said to the woman, "This may be frequented by wild beasts, do you still want to stay?" ”
The woman shook her head and said, "It's okay, I'm going to stay, this is my home." ”
She said with a rare smile, but the smile was sad and bitter, and after the madness, all that remained in her eyes was exhaustion.
The woman took us to the door of a high-end residential area, which adopts closed management, and originally required a key card to enter the door.
Now that the key card is no longer needed, the electronic lock has failed, and the woman tried to push down the door, but it didn't open.
The woman has been away from home for more than a year, and the belongings she brought with her have long been lost in which corner, and there is no such thing as a key.
I asked her to dodge to the side, breaking the lock with the black cloud blast, and the group swaggered across the gate of the neighborhood.
"Boss, the younger brother has something unknown." Teng Rui's temperament is much more lively than before the amnesia, and he said with a sense of concern while visiting the environment of the high-end community.
"Say it quickly."
"Didn't you mean that all the zombies in River City had run away?"
"yes."
"This gate doesn't seem to have been hit by zombies, hasn't it been played in the movie, all the corpses work together, and their strength is broken." Teng Rui paused, lowered his voice and said, "Are they all hiding?" ”
His eyes widened and he grimaced as if he were a zombie, and pointed to the silent courtyard and the tall buildings on either side, "They may still be ......"
I originally muttered a little, especially when the woman said that she was invisible to ordinary zombies after she was bitten, so even if there were ordinary zombies hiding in the community, she wouldn't rush out now.
I released the spirit net and searched the community, but I didn't find any ordinary zombies or mutant beasts.
"Boss, are you sure? Didn't your abilities fail? "Teng Rui's amnesia is amnesia, his memory has not deteriorated at all, and he remembers everything I told him very clearly.
"yes, so I'm not sure the results will be accurate, and we have to be ready to fight at any time."
"It's okay, with me, ordinary zombies can't get close to us." Song Enru said.
That being said, we maintained a two-person formation, ready for battle at any moment, and headed deeper into the courtyard.
The woman and Teng Rui walked in the middle of the line, Song Enru and I took the lead, and Xiao Zhang and Xiao Yang broke off.
Song Enru motioned to me to look at the buildings around me as she walked, "Look at the windows here, they are all intact." ”
I've actually noticed this, the windows of the surrounding buildings are only dusty, not broken, even on the first floor without guardrails.
It is said that the gate of the community can't prevent mutant beasts at all, but they seem to have missed this.
The woman led us to the door of the unit in Building C, and the electronic lock on the door of the unit was also invalid, and I directly pried open the lock, at this time, Xiao Yang suddenly 'huh'.
I thought she had noticed something unusual, and I stopped following her voice, and I only pushed the door halfway open.
The hallway was not warmer than the outside, but there was a cold wind blowing out, and the stairwell window was probably not closed.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Zhang saw that Xiao Yang's expression was wrong, and immediately asked with concern.
"It's... This place is so yin. Xiao Yang's face was frightened, and his eyes were fixed on the darkness inside the door, as if he was afraid that some monster would suddenly rush out of it.
"Do you still have the skills? Don't be nervous, the most important thing in these years is the dead people, you know, where there are many dead people...... "I just wanted to tease her, but Xiao Yang suddenly screamed 'ah', grabbed Xiao Zhang and took two steps back, and retreated straight to the bottom of the steps.
"What, you're calling?" Xiao Zhang was not frightened by the monster inside the door, but was startled by her, and seemed a little angry.
"There's footsteps, there's footsteps inside, there's ghosts." Xiao Yang, like Teng Rui, has lost her memories since the end of the world, and it seems that she has not experienced the tempering of the end of the world, and her courage has returned to her previous state.
I felt that I might have made some mistakes in judgment, and maybe Teng Rui's courage had become smaller, so I glanced at Teng Rui out of the corner of my eye.
He had already protected the woman to the side, but his expression did not change much,
Song Enru frowned and looked inside the door: "Footsteps? ”
She listened carefully and asked suspiciously, "No, did you hear it wrong?" ”
I feel that Xiao Yang is a bit of a god, too sensitive to certain things and phenomena, Song Enru and I stood at the door and didn't hear the footsteps, she can actually hear it at the end of the team, is it really some special talent?
"I heard you right, there were footsteps, walking in, from the doorway." Xiao Yang's fear doesn't look like it's pretending, and she won't joke with us at such a time.
"Mutants? Let me see! Xiao Zhang said and lit a few fireballs inside the door, which shows that Xiao Zhang is a staunch materialist and will not treat unexplained things as paranormal events.
