Volume 1: Stabilize the Waves, Chapter 13: Li Wu in a dilemma
Rooftop rooftop!
September nights are no longer as hot and humid as they were in previous days.
Originally, early autumn was Wei Lai's favorite season, without the heat of summer and the cold of winter. It's just that tonight's cool breeze was mixed with a slight lingering smell of rancid and bloody, which made him rub his nose involuntarily.
It's only seven or eight o'clock in the night, and it used to be the busiest time for this street, and there was an endless stream of people who came here to eat and drink. The hustle and bustle even lasts until one or two o'clock in the night.
It's just that now there are no more people coming and going, only a few scattered zombies are dangling not far away. And because of the power outage, the lights on the shop signs have long stopped flickering.
Listening to the footsteps getting closer and closer behind you,
Wei Lai, who knew who was behind him, leaned over and lit a cigarette on the edge of the roof, looked at the moon in the sky and said without even looking back: "You have a grudge against that woman?" ”
Smack...
The footsteps stopped, and Li Wu, who was one step behind, seemed to have already guessed the purpose of Wei Lai calling him up.
Immediately, he didn't care if Wei Lai, who was looking up at the sky, could see it. She shook her head casually, and replied in a somewhat sad tone: "When the lot was drawn, Guangwei went for her." ”
After a pause in the hand of the cigarette, Wei Lai seemed to understand something.
Without any pause, the sturdy Li Wu pressed his hands on the edge of the roof and landed steadily on the wall and sat down.
I told him again what had happened in Hospitable Come.
Looking at that relaxed and bold action, the expression on Wei Lai's face was a little surprised. He wanted to do the same thing. It's just that I don't know why, but when I put my arm on the wall, I changed my mind temporarily.
And at this time, through Li Wu's narration,
Wei Lai also understood the cause and effect of the matter. It's just that he doesn't know how to evaluate who is right and who is wrong in this matter. And at this time, it is obviously meaningless to ask Li Wu if he did it on purpose at that time.
In the last days, there is no morality and bottom line for a long time.
It's only the early days of the zombie outbreak, and most people haven't fully adapted to this cannibalistic world. If it goes down for another half a year, or even three months, it must be a different scene tonight.
…
After talking about his own affairs, Li Wu, who had not received a response for a long time, tilted his head slightly, but found that the guy who was about the same age as himself was wandering, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Although he was puzzled, he was not curious.
Unceremoniously took the cigarette case from the wall, pulled out one, and took out a lighter from his pocket and lit it. Then he leaned back slightly, supporting his body with his hands.
Unabashedly straightforward asked, "What about you?" You don't seem to be scared of those disgusting things! ”
Hehe...
Wei Lai, who only thought he was praised, smiled softly. Then he pointed to the zombie downstairs who was banging against the telephone pole and said, "Maybe I'm more adaptable." And I don't want to be like them more than I am afraid. ”
As he spoke, he put the cigarette butt in his mouth, and with a strong stretch of his strong arms, he jumped onto the wall and sat side by side with Li Wu.
It's just that what Wei Lai didn't expect was that his sudden action startled Li Wu on the wall, making him suddenly tense all over.
So you're scared too?
Wei Lai raised his eyebrows, Quan Dang didn't see Li Wu's vigilance against him. He took out the half-burning cigarette butt in his mouth and threw it away, and then took out two cans of beer from his arms as if by magic.
Handing one of the cans to Li Wu, who was beside him with a nervous face, Wei Lai grinned and diverted the topic, as if casually mentioning it, and asked him, "Come with me!" ”
Seeing that there was no follow-up action by the people around him, Li Wu slowly relaxed after taking the beer. He hid the nervousness just now, and asked with a puzzled smile, "What?" You've got a crush on me, huh? ”
"Roll the calves!"
Wei Lai was stunned and scolded with a smile. Then he straightened his thoughts and continued: "Tonight's incident is just an introduction, and they may not know how to embarrass you in the future." You can't kill them all, can you? ”
After the short time before,
The keen Li Wu had already sensed that the guy in front of him was roughly the same kind of person as himself. So when Wei Lai asked himself to come to the rooftop, he had already roughly guessed what he wanted to say to himself.
Just before he could reply, he listened to Wei Lai beside him continue: "It's good to have a lot of people and great strength, but there is another sentence that tells people to divide into groups. You and they are not the same kind of people, and you can't stay together. ”
The cool breeze of the night blows,
Li Wu just opened his mouth but didn't say anything, just fell silent. And Wei Lai, who was looking forward to it, did not continue to chase after him, leaving him enough time to think.
In Wei's view, a good helper is stronger than too much burden. So he really didn't want to miss out on Li Wu, who took the initiative to send him to the door.
And if it weren't for what those people said before that were too poignant, maybe he wouldn't have made his own suggestion so early.
But it's okay like this, Li Wu already has a problem with those people in his heart, and the probability of convincing him is a little greater.
I don't know how long it has been...
Li Wu, who had not spoken, raised his head and drank all the beer in the can, and asked meaningfully, "Aren't you afraid that I will kill you again?" ”
Wei Lai has a lot of addiction to smoking, and this is already the third cigarette he has lit.
I saw him exhale a long puff of smoke, stared at Li Wu and said very arrogantly: "Don't compare me with that woman, if something really happens, it is estimated that you will die worse than me." ”
Are you so confident?
Li Wu was confident that his strength was not weak, so after hearing this, he glanced at Wei Lai beside him.
Looking at the physique that was about the same as his own, he curled the corners of his mouth disapprenoantly and continued to ask, "Where do you want to go?" ”
Wei Lai, who noticed the sight that looked at him and knew what the other party was thinking, did not debunk it. He didn't want to reveal all his hole cards right now.
It's true that he wants Li Wu to join him, but whether he is trustworthy or not still has to pass the test of time.
And I'm afraid that Li Wu can't even imagine that the reason why he is so confident is not because of his own strength, but on the little girl downstairs who is eating hard with a lollipop and looks harmless to humans and animals.
If this guy is ruthless and wants to yin himself, then Gardenia will tell him with a bloody axe, why are the flowers so red?
Wei Lai replied with a smile: "Guquan Town! ”
"That Ancient Springs town up to the north?"
"Hmm," Wei Lai nodded and continued, "That's my hometown!" In the past few years, most of the people have entered the city because of the demolition, and the rest are mostly old men and old ladies. It's safer there than in the city. ”
"And when do you want to go?" Li Wu continued to ask.
"I was thinking about a few more days. But if you agree, we'll leave tomorrow. ”
The reason why Wei Lai, who was telling the truth, was in such a hurry, in addition to taking care of Li Wu. And since these people downstairs came, he felt a little uneasy.
Although he didn't know where the danger would come from, he felt that it was better to stay away from these people in advance.
"Got it."
Li Wu, who drank all the beer and threw away the cans, neither agreed nor refused, but just replied lightly and stopped talking.
On the fence of the rooftop, the two people who stopped talking to each other sat like this, smoking cigarettes one after another. I stayed quietly for a long time.
....
The morning sun rises from the east as usual,
Drive away the darkness and bring the light.
The two of them, who had been on the roof all night, got up and went downstairs one after another, this time it was still Wei Lai who was ahead, followed by Li Wu, who had already made a decision.
I don't know if the people downstairs woke up early, or if they didn't sleep all night after experiencing yesterday's life and death. Anyway, when the two of them came down, they happened to see these people lying on the glass window on the first floor observing the situation outside.
"Little brother wants to go out?"
Brother Luo watched Wei Lai go downstairs and kept tidying up his things. Even the little girl, who had been in a lump all night and had not moved, stood up by herself and put on a posture of leaving, and couldn't help but come forward and ask.
Everyone who heard the sound also looked sideways.
Casually put the salt and sugar that had been poured into the clean mineral water bottle and stored in the bag, Wei Lai turned his head sideways and replied: "There are still people at home who are still waiting for me to go back, and this supermarket will be left to you." ”
"What do you mean? Not coming back? ”
Brother Luo looked a little surprised. He really couldn't understand why someone would be so stupid as to give up such a good gathering place and be willing to go out and take risks.
Ignoring the group of people in the room outside who also had exaggerated expressions. Wei Lai put the backpack behind his back and locked the buckle on his waist.
casually dismantled a lollipop and stuffed it into Gardenia's mouth, then lit a cigarette for himself and said, "By the way, Brother Luo, Li Wu will go with me." You can just wait here for help. ”
What?
Brother Luo's expression at this moment was like that of a fish that was almost dying of thirst. He moved his lips up and down in embarrassment, not knowing what to say for a while.
Who is Li Wu?
That's the bodyguard who took a lot of effort to get down, and it's only been a night's work, so you were taken away?
But before he finished organizing the language and wanted to speak, Wei Lai reacted quickly and blocked his back road directly.
"Brother Luo, Li Wu said that among these people, you and that Brother Sun are good to him. As you saw last night, those people are certainly not going to give up on him. You can't put him in a dilemma when the time comes, can you? ”
"You..."
Brother Luo was a little speechless: "That's what I said, but..."
"Thank you, Brother Ro." Wei looked at Brother Luo's aggrieved appearance and grinned, and then took Gardenia's little hand and shouted outside, "Are you done cleaning up?" Let's go. ”
And just when Li Wu outside, who agreed to come down and wanted to take a step, a voice sounded, but it stopped his steps again.
"Li Wu can't go!
