In the darkness, a small figure huddled in the corner, staring in horror at the slowly rising gate, not daring to make a sound.

She held a revolver in both hands, but the muzzle of the gun kept shaking.

When a little light shone into the dark basement, Chen Yu was as if he had been hit by a burst of electricity, and without waiting for the floodgates to open completely, he bent down and ran into the basement, He knelt down and took the girl hiding in the corner into his arms.

"Are you alright, are you hurt? Don't be afraid, brother is back. ”

Qiyue's body was very cold and couldn't help shaking, Chen Yu took off his coat and wrapped it around her. After a long time, July came to his senses, and said in a weak voice:

"William they ......"

Chen Yu buried her head in his arms, blocking July's view.

The girl seemed to understand something, so she didn't ask much, but the tears continued in strings, wetting Chen Yu's clothes.

Chen Yu's heartbeat settled down, and in the course of this day, he witnessed hellish tragedy and death, and this wild town that had sheltered them for three years had been turned into a cemetery without a tombstone yesterday.

Chen Yu was a little dazed, a little dazed, knowing that he didn't want to believe at this moment, this place that left him a lot of memories and a sense of hometown intimacy really ushered in the catastrophe of death.

But the frightened sister in her arms, the suppressed whimper is so real.

Time seems to be a cycle, except for memories, they seem to have become as lonely as they were three years ago. The world was left with only the two of them, and the fear of hesitation and the confusion of facing the unknown enveloped them again.

It seems that nothing has changed, they are still so weak, so fragile, powerless to change anything, just able to snuggle up to each other, struggling to survive in this barren and desolate world.

"You're hurt?"

July asked about a little blood, and immediately looked at Chen Yu worriedly, but he was now covered in blood and the breath of mutated creatures, and it was completely impossible to distinguish whether it was the blood of the enemy or his own.

July's voice made Chen Yu suddenly swoop, and it also made his divergent thoughts suddenly tighten.

It's not time to relax yet, and their situation is still very precarious. The area around Blackwater has been controlled by mutant creatures, and it is only a moment of peace after the first wave of attacks, and they may encounter wandering mutant creatures at any time, and they must escape as soon as possible.

Chen Yu looked at the safe house, where there were many medicines, water, food, and a lot of firearms and weapons on the shelves.

He would regularly replace the expired reserves according to William's arrangement, so he was very familiar with the structure of this place, and soon turned out a backpack at the bottom of the shelf, which could support two people for five days, and the backpack space was no longer enough.

"We need to get out as soon as possible."

Chen Yu put on his backpack, and then picked up Qiyue, but when he got up, his legs were a little weak, and he felt dizzy in front of him.

Chen Yu took a deep breath and held the shelf with one hand, and then slowly stood up straight.

His body and mind were already overdrawn, the effects of the stimulants had passed, and a severe feeling of exhaustion was pouring in.

July sensed Chen Yu's weakness, "Let me down, I can go by myself." ”

"Be obedient and close your eyes."

July didn't continue to insist, his hands wrapped around Chen Yu's neck, and fixed his body. She knew that Chen Yu would not agree, and it would only be a waste of time and energy to continue arguing.

The brother and sister have an extraordinary tacit understanding, and they may quarrel and quarrel at ordinary times, but that's just how they get along with each other. When it comes to big things, July will become very well-behaved and obedient.

Chen Yu took a few deep breaths, cheered up, and quickly threw out of the basement.

July's forehead rested on Chen Yu's shoulder, her eyes closed, and Chen Yu's body temperature brought her a sense of security again.

Her breathing had subsided, and the fear and tension of being alone in the basement had dissipated.

It feels like going back to the days when I didn't come to Blackwater.

At that time, Chen Yu was also running with her in his arms, hunger, lack of water, and scorching air, and many homeless people stopped waking up as soon as they closed their eyes.

There are also many people, hungry and red-eyed, and in addition to corpses, they will also snatch weak children and Lao Tzu and eat their flesh raw.

Whenever this happens, Chen Yu will let her close her eyes and hold her away from the crowd.

He thought that he would be afraid, and subconsciously used his body to block the filth, misery and sin around him, so that he could make his childhood innocent and clean.

But July never told Chen Yu that she was not afraid of this, and she didn't care, as long as she stayed by his side, she would get warmth and security, and everything else was no longer important.

In the midst of the turmoil, July's consciousness gradually drifted into a trance and finally fell into a deep sleep.

The air has become much wetter.

Chen Yu ran for two hours in a row, and finally ran into the mountain forest.

It is densely wooded and smelly, making it easy to hide.

Coming to a small stream, Chen Yu first observed the surrounding movements.

After confirming that there were no traces of mutant creatures around, he walked lightly to the stream.

He was about to carefully put July down when he saw her long eyelashes twitch and open her eyes.

"Take a break here, it's safe nearby!"

Qiyue watched Chen Yu clean the blood stains on his body, revealing many fresh wounds that had not yet scabbed, feeling distressed and worried.

"I'll help you!"

July wrapped gauze around Chen Yu, and it didn't take long for her injuries to be covered with blood, and her movements were cautious, for fear that she would accidentally touch the wound and hurt him.

After using up the last ball of gauze, July suddenly grabbed Chen Yu's hand, his big eyes were full of tears, and he finally broke the embankment.

"It's such an adult, and it's all over the body, do you know how worried people are."

Chen Yu rubbed her head and helped her wash her hands.

"It's just a small injury, and it will be fine in two days. Okay, don't cry, I'll tell you the good news, we have saved enough money to buy a house. Once you have completed the procedures for entering the city, you will be able to move into your new home. ”

"I'm still crying, I'm not working, I'm usually so strong, where did I go?"
